Optimistic

" Here drink "

" Umm okay "

Without protesting much I drank the potion as she held my head and gently picked me up, swalloing the red liquid that tasted like peanut butter mixed with salt water ,my insides felt like it was burning as the potion entered my blood stream in an instant causing rapid regeneration, closing my eyes to help bear the pain of regeneration bones that were broken ,cracked or dislocated mended themselves and rearranged themselves back to their places, torn muscles, ligaments and tendons regenerates in a blink and my stamina completely recovered all in one minute

It was a high grade potion

Feeling warm and rejuvenated I opened my eyes that looked rather weak right now and looked at my saviour with mixed feelings, I was very greatful , embarrassed and confused at the same time

{Wasn't she suppose to be at Viscount Raven's side? WHY'S SHE HERE}

" Dame Rosenhart why are you here? "

Julia looked at my eyes and patted my head and replied with frown

" Backup, I was asked to support you by lord Raven and the prince "

" WHAT? "

I shouted and stood up in a hurry, I looked at Julia who looked a bit surprised by how quick stood up and asked

" Why'd you even agree?? "

{ This is nuts! They send one of the 7 greatest talents of the continent on a suicidal mission like this?? }

" (stood up) The reason is because of a bad family member of mine ."

" What? "

" .....Tell me this ,you fought the demon worshipper responsible for the destruction back there right? "

" ...?! {Wait! }"(Widened his eyes)

I began to formulate her words and went ahead towards a certain conclusion as she continued

" Did he also have silvers hair like me, and also did he use flame magic dyed black with demonic energy and was he a Swordsman? "

...

I remained silent and simply stared at her incredulously,shaken and horrified at her words, a veteran reader of stories and watcher of K dramas like me could easily make out what she wanted to point out fro her words in a blink

" He's your brother? "

.....

She looked a bit darker than usual, a bit of regret and sadness was visible on her eyes as she looked at the ground seemingly reminiscing some memories before she replied

" I am sorry "(she bowed)

My feelings at the moment were hard to describe, finding out that the thing that i despised for the first time in my life was a blood relative of the first woman I've ever loved, disbelief, confusion and various other feelings were mixed in but most were sympathy for Julia who looked really small right now ,having a satanic terrorist for a brother can't be an easy thing for someone with a reputation like her's at all

" Chhan? "

She looked at my face while bowing as I didn't reply for a while

" Haaaa(sighs) "

I sat back down and replied

" Excuse me I was rather shocked you see, and It's not your fault, it's your insane brother's fault so don't apologise "

She lifted her head and came near me and asked

" Do you know why I came now ?"

I looked at her face that had a rather relaxed look now, she seemed a bit relieved that I didn't mind that her brother was a satanic

" A sense of responsibility? But does lord Eric know about this ?"

" It's not exactly a secret, most people from high society knows of this fact (she a somber smile) "

" {I sure didn't,well it's not exactly a comfortable topic} I see, so what are you gonna do? Join my suicidal mission? Or take me back? ".

" Let's find my brother atleast, From What I've heard he was gravely injured from the recent fight he had and is likely to atleast leave a trace in this forest, the prince also gave me some info on where the king lost track of my brother so we shouldn't be careful completely lost "

She seemed motivated and eager to catch that terrorist ,but I could make a guess right now that she thinks of capturing that thing ,from the way she still calls that vermin ' Brother ' ,she wouldn't be able to kill him I imagine

" (Standing back up, I looked at her in her eyes and met her gaze and offered her my hand ) Then I'll be in your care ,captain of the Ravenheart knights "

" Me too , Adventurer Saved "(she showed a cheerful and confident smile)

" My adventurer name huh? "

I didn't know what kind of optimistic or complicated plan she has for capturing that thing alive but, if she fails, even if I have to die I'm killing that guy

Julia :" Let's go then "

With that Julia leaded the way and I followed as we moved towards the centre at high speed

***

Tsssh tsssh

Julia :" A horde of undead ahead ,Get ready for combat Chhan!! "

I actually sensed it already but I kept quiet as I drew my sword as she also did, it's only been a minute since we ran and already we have this

Crackle crackle

Ahead of the jungle was a horde of undead beast with rotten bodies , most of the undeads there were goblin , Spider-monkeys, dire wolves corpses or skeletons moving with curse energy that covered this part of the forest causing corpse to walk the earth till they decay to dust, all in all around 200 were infront of us

" I'll lead you follow!! "

Drawing her white blade she ran ahead full speed and turned the ground ahead into ice and skated forward, I simply ran up the trees and moved through them as I can't skate on ice

" Swoosh "

Graa graa graa

Aarrck arrck

Sensing the presence of the living the undead all moved at her without reservation for their other corpse friends, the dead who were below 6th class had no intelligence after all

And entire horde moved towards her but slipped up on the ice ground causing the lost of them to trip and fall on their asses, tahking the chances I also jumped down the tree and firmed the 10 meter long aura sword from my blade and smashed them apart

Booommm!!!

{ 6 !}

Turning around as 8 other corpses attacked from the right and I planted my feet towards them and twisted my upper body and smashed them away then apart like the finest tennis ball

Gloww

" Hell yes!! "

I continued

Julia .... She didn't even move at all after reached the centre of the undead horde, i actually wondered how she ended up with a title like the sword when she actually fought like this ,any undead that approached her simply cracked apart from being frozen at bone chilling temperatures being emitted from her sword before they even reached 5 meters to her

She still was alerted as she kept her eyes and senses on the enemy and even me if I needed any support

But

Boom Boomm booom

With the 10 meter long blade, and up agains the undead who only had speed and vitality as their strengths in battle, I had no trouble with them at all, the 10 meter long aura sword destroyed 20 undead on one swing and even if they putted themselves back together things didn't change

Julia :{ That made technique of his is a bit crude , it seems like he made it himself as I've never seen anyone use aura like that, no one other than people with physical prowess like his wouldn't be able to wield a whopping 10 meter long aura swords anyway, not bad, but }" He's glowing? "

He glowed 2 times already?
