The conclusion

Here we were standing alongside the Shakara army with Bronchu captured.

"He was a noble person but got trapped in his views such that he became evil unconsciously," said one of the Shakara present.

"Lately, he was getting crazy, he could only think about violence and revenge. I was unable to confront him because we shared the same beliefs but after hearing John Swift's story. I got to realize that knowingly doing the wrong thing would bring nothing but despair. So I gathered courage and dropped my sword," said the elderly assistant leader. Bronchu stood silent with rheumy eyes.

After that, we all went back to the city to stop the people from evacuating the city. They were about to leave when we arrived. They were amazed to see the Shakara tribe with us. But as we told them the entire story, they welcomed them with both the arms open. Families of the soldiers were happy to see them alive. The terror which aroused the city for days just vanished as we returned and a spark of joy and enlightenment returned among the people.

"It is great to see you back," said Rupert

"Yeah, you just had me worried you, idiot," cried Isabel.

"Well, the good thing is that everything is back to normal," I answered.

Rupert was then, called by his uncle for some reason. I finally got my chance. I had always liked, Isabel but never had the guts to confess my feelings to her. It was the perfect moment.

" Isabel, I've been wanting to tell you something for a long time."

"What is it, Juan?"

As I was about to utter a word from my mouth, the middle Shakara assistant leader interrupted us and said," Hey Juan, can I talk to you for a minute? He asked. I glanced at Isabel she made a facial expression which meant go and talk, to him.

We then went inside the castle and sat on the lawn.

" My name is Trevor Olwan. I wanted to talk to you as from now on, we would be working together for the Levander army. Oh and everyone is talking about the bravery and strength of John Swift but, no one is talking about the superb strike on Bronchu's back by Juan Swift," he said as we shook hands.

"Oh, it was nothing I could teach it to you any day," I said laughingly.

"No, I want to learn something else from you."

"What is it, Trevor?"

"How do you hit someone with such efficiency that it hurts even after the whole day," he said pointing towards the cut on his lower leg.

"Oh so it was you who I hit yesterday, I thought so."

"You would have never got the opportunity if Bronchu's armour never broke and blocked the tunnel in Tisdale's room."

"Wait, what do you mean?" I asked.

"Didn't you find it peculiar that the tunnel only in Tisdale's room was blocked?"

"Alright, let me explain. It was Bronchu, me, my elder brother Trekker, younger brother Valter and several other soldiers, who entered Tisdale's room through the tunnel. It was Bronchu who was to do the murder. We were there for safety since we knew there would be tight security for the King.

So as we entered his room, we killed all the soldiers and, Bronchu killed Tisdale by hitting him on the neck with the star blade. The tip of the blade was made of Zodus which led to the instant death of King. For killing other soldiers, more force was required. So one could see signs of violence present on their body. In the nick of time, Bronchu and other soldiers then left the room in a hurry. But by misfortune Bronchu's armour broke as it hit with the tunnel's wall, It got stuck in the middle.

My elder brother and I had nowhere to go. In the meantime, Musif Leren and John Swift entered the room. We stuck the ground to hide the tunnel and pushed them to the ground and left. We checked the nearby rooms in the hope to find a tunnel to leave. Unfortunately, all the rooms were filled with soldiers so we did not enter them due to the fear of getting caught. Some soldiers saw us, but Trekkerand I managed to kill them with colossal use of violence. We then decided to look for the tunnels separately. So when you heard the sound "I found another centre. It was my elder brother signalling that he found the tunnel near which no soldiers were present. Then you and Roderick found us, and you hit me on the leg. By luck, you both slipped which left us a few seconds to leave from the tunnel and cover it.

"Oh so now the entire mystery is solved. Hugo was disgust sensitive thus he started killing the Shakaras and threw them in the forbidden forest. Shakara tribe found the Zodus metal beneath its soil. Due to which they were able to build a new city and potent weapons. With the help of the Zodus blade and the tunnel, Bronchu managed to kill both the Kings. But as we found the secret tunnel we went with open arms for the reunion of both the communities. Your leader Bronchu resisted our proposal and followed his path of immortality, thus, met his fate, woeful life in jail. Now here we are with the pledge of living together."

We then went to the Richie eatery to celebrate the justice served to both the communities.
