Fred

That warrior who got the firepower on his veins is burning the whole city by himself, while his "sidekick", probably, is watching that man who is throwing fire on the city and laughing maniacally. I don't know what kind of man enjoys throwing fire into people, but that man is one of those who really had problems on their heads. While that madman continues to burn the entire city from which Louis and Lucian could barely escape, the other warrior comes to us, doesn't seem happy, but neither sad, I think it's a state of neutrality.

"How did the mission go?" asks the warrior Lucian because he was the one who carried that frozen woman.

"The mission was a failure. We were supposed to capture that General, but it looks like this assassin had already done his thing when we got there," says Lucian pointing at the frozen woman who is three steps from them.

That warrior goes to that frozen woman, he looks at me and starts asking.

"Can you do some light for me?"

"Are you talking to me?" I ask the warrior after I check to be sure he is talking to me, and not to Lucian or with someone else.

"Yeah, you." says the warrior. "Aint you a wizard?"

"Yes. I am a wizard." I say after I leave the place where I and Brothers Flint were sitting and going with my wand at that frozen body and started to use the spell that makes light.

The warrior looks closely at that frozen woman's body, and after a few seconds he asks me where she was, but I answer that warrior I didn't know where because I was here and waiting for Brothers Flint to come.

Then, the warrior thanked me for help and he goes to the Brothers Flint and asks them some questions about their mission. I go closely there to know how does the mission happen.

Brother Flint have found the woman in the General room, then Louis has frozen the assassin, and then those two have run with the woman from the room, but they were chased by the knights because they thought that those two were the ones who killed the General and the woman was just a hostage and one of those hookers the general he is always bringing home. The knights and even some civilians were chasing them into the streets, throwing things at them, trying to hit them with normal arrows and even somewhere trying to crash their carriages into them, but those crashes have created another exit for those two brothers because the first one was already protected by guards.

"...And that's it," says Lucian to that warrior.

"You two had a hard night." says the warrior after he is writing the report on a parchment.

"Yeah. A really hard one."

"Do not worry. You did not have failed this mission. The General is killed, so the nobels of this kingdom will put another one of those dumb nobels as General."

"Yeah… I just hope this one will be bad."

"It will probably be," I say to Lucian making him feel better.

"Hey, kid. Thanks for the healing," says Louis.

"No problem," I respond to Louis, and then I have met in a matter of seconds the glance of that warrior with ice hands.

"So you are the squire who is working for Fiona, right?... You look pretty young for war."

"I know, but the age doesn't really matter in a war."

"Well… How old are you?"

"Ten."

"Ten… A good age to be a squire, but a bad age to go into wars… You see, the wars will start changing you the perception of the world." says that warrior who is getting up, and then he tells us we can enter the carriage and prepare to go back into our base to rest.

After all, our duty has been filled, and now we can go back to our base and get a good meal, rest, and probably two or three days. When we have entered the carriage, that unknown man is entering the carriage too, and he looked at us.

"Name is Gabriel." says the guy whose name is Gabriel. "And I am an Elementals."

"Elementals?" I thought to myself: "Who are those people?"

"An Elementals? Pretty rare these days," says Louis to the warrior named Gabriel. "My name is Louis, the muscle one is Lucian."

"Nice to meet you," says Lucian to the man named Gabriel.

"... and the other warrior is Judah." continued Louis says to that warrior.

"Nice to meet you two," says Gabriel. "And the guy who will come after he will burn the village is a good friend of mine, Fred. He is an Elementals too. This one owns the fire element, and I can control the ice one."

And speaking of the devil, the guy whose name is Fred is getting on the cart, he greets all of us in the watch and sits next to Gabriel. When Fred has sat down, he stops his fire element and tells the driver to start this cart and transport them back to base.

"Wait, where is the frozen body?" I ask Gabriel.

"On the roof, the body is pretty tied up and she cannot escape that easily."

"Pfau… That scared me for a second. I thought we forgot about that body." I say to Gabriel.

"Oh, you mean the one that I have burned by mistake?" asks Fred everyone from here.

"WHAT?!" shouts all four of us at that guy Fred, and to be honest, this guy has really made a good impression on us.

All of us left the carriage, and we found that the body, who was supposed to be tied on the roofs has now been barbequed by that guy Fred. All four of us have started to feel scared at what will Fiona says.

"Fiona will kill us," says Louis making all of us nervous.

"At least I had a good life," I say to Louis feeling depressed.

"Fred…" says Gabriel in an angry tone to Fred. "If Fiona will kill somebody, it is going to be you."

Then Fred has started to tremble and feel like he will be punished for this action and how in the name of God did he burn that frozen woman? Sometimes the people with much more power are quite hard to understand their actions.

All of us who were in the carriage are entering Fiona's house where she was planning the next strategy and she saw feeling nervous, and then she looks at Fred, who is starting to tremble like he was about to encounter a Doctor for the first time. Fiona sighed and then she asks Fred.

"What have you done this time, Fred?"

"Well... I just burned a lady... Accidently." says Fred to Fiona while was forced by Gabriel to speak and not run from here.

"Again?"

"... Again."

"Oh, Fred... At least tell me the lady was not that important."

In this sentence, everyone did not speak a single word there, and Fiona has started to understand our silence and she looks angry at Fred and she tells him.

"Who was the person you have burned?!" says Fiona while her left hand is transforming into a Vewolf one which isn't a good sign.

"... The.. L-Lady wh-who killed... The noble who was the G-General." says Fred feeling terrified while Fiona is slowly approaching him with her left hand into a vewolf hand and looking so pissed at him.

"Freeed!" yells Fiona while she was about to launch a left attack on Fred's head, but something has stopped her action and it was her left hand that was frozen by Gabriel's spell. "What is this Gabriel?"

"Allow me, Fiona. His fault will be strictly punished, but for now, we have to discuss other dangerous things."

"Such as?"

"The fact that some enemies have come to our territory." and then Gabriel pointed at the window and all of us are looking at the window, to saw three enemy carriages who are coming right at us. "These carriages were nothing, but, weirdly, they are just three coming our way."

"It is really weird." says Louis looking at those carriages who are stopping in the front of our zone.

Fiona leaves the building and I have decided to follow her because I am still a squire, even though she has become a temporary General. Right, when we have left the building, I heard a scream so high that it would have sounded more like a girl who's being raped, but it's Fred, who I think gets his punishment from Gabriel... I hope that lunatic isn't on one of my missions anymore.

As Fiona and I head to the three paths that are parked in front of our area, a person comes out of this who is dressed in royal robes and wears a golden sceptre and a crown of the king, which resembles that of the King of the Kingdom in which I live and for which I have been fighting for almost a whole month. This person is surely the king or just a nobleman who disguises himself as one to scare us, who doesn't work because Fiona can naturally as long as he gets close to that well-dressed person. We both stop at a distance of five meters in front of that man, to whom he smiles at us and looks at Fiona, to whom this girl next to me has no reaction and asks that guy.

"Are you the king?"

"Of course I am the King of Moldovia." says the King of Moldovia to Fiona. "And who are you, young and strong warrior?"

"I am Fiona Lunderberg, temporarily General, you Majesty." says Fiona to that guy forgetting the fact that he is the king of Moldovia and not just a simple noble or peasants.

"Well, then... Let us get straight to the things... Why are you working for the Turkish Empire?"

This question has made both of us freeze and feel confused with this question.
