NOIRS
1. A Visit to Petaka
On a clear morning, Princess Lurina, the king's only daughter will pay a visit to a spring believed by everyone to be one of the 4 cleansing springs.
The spring visited by the princess is the eastern spring located right in the middle of the forest which is the center of the mystery of the Spirit of the East.
The request of the princess had shocked the entire kingdom, because only this time the royal members asked to visit the forest, forests where there are myths that are still believed by the people of the government. Coupled with the presence of the Spirit of the East, the mystery that inhabits the region.
Princess Lurina reasoned, he wanted to visit the place to prove that the eastern forest was not creepy as told by the people and the springs must be very beautiful and no less fresh than 3 springs othersmore.
Was-was will happen something unwanted to the princess just wayangnya, before leaving the king formed an elite army long ago. This army consists of royal soldiers who are full of battle.
The king gathered his elite soldiers just to escort the princess during her visit to the easternmost forest.
After a special force was formed for his escort, Princess Lurina immediately departed. Despite forming a special army, the king still worried about his beloved daughter.
Not because of anything else that worries the king, but the destination is the king's greatest concern for Princess Lurina.
...-----...
Princess Lurina's entourage arrived at the spring moments after the sun shifted slightly from overhead.
Before doing the cleaning in the spring, the, the soldiers under the command of the guard commander installed a folding wall made of bamboo to cover the entire area of the spring so that no one tried to peek or disturb the princess and the lady when doing the cleaning. If anyone dares to disturb the royal family then the head will be the payment.
After installing the folding wall, the soldiers also went to guard around the spring so that the safety of the princess was guaranteed.
At first, the situation around is still safe, there is not a single sign of interference that appears. Only rabbits, deer, and other forest animals are still seen passing in the path to the spring.
A few minutes later, however, things started to change. One by one the elite archers of the princess' bodyguards fell from the top of the tree. The guard leader began to make sure, the enemy's attack was clear. The danger sign was immediately sounded.
Immediately, Commander Baxter, the chief officer of the princess, ordered his troops to prepare to attack.
They suspect this is
the anger of the Noir who did not like his springs was smeared by anyone, including the princess. There were 5 shadows appearing right above them.
Actually, how many figures of Noir inhabit this place? muttered Commander Baxter.
Soon, dark blue-robed archers appeared from within the bush. They also appear to be advancing slowly while pointing their arrows at the princess and her troops.
"DORC!!! WHO ARE YOU!!!" snapped Commander Baxter while brandishing his shiny sword.
"Excuse me commander, but it looks like you and your troops should end up here" said a bodyguard of the princess in the back.
Half the troops escorting the princess laughed at the impudent words of the soldier.
Commander Baxter was surprised, because his own army had infiltrated the traitor.
"THAT SHIT!!! YOU TRAITORS APPARENTLY!!!" furious Commander Baxter.
"SAVE THEM!!!" someone's orders from within the shadow of the trees.
...-----...
One of the maids began to be sensitive to the situation, "It looks like there is an enemy attack!"
"Come princess, we must hurry," said a lady-in-waiting who was beginning to feel worried. They immediately got dressed and hurried to leave the place
When they were about to leave the spring, the traitors discovered the existence of the princess.
"That's them!!! Quickly finish!!!" the order of a traitorous soldier earlier while pointing towards them.
One of the maids quickly pulled the princess's hand to immediately run away from the forest. While the other lady-in-waiting tried to fight back while holding back those traitors.
With all their might, they ran as far as possible without knowing the direction of the destination. There is only one, run or die. This time, an army of robed archers were chasing them. One by one Princess Lurina's remaining ladies tried to hold them back. But those maids were easily completed by those archers.
Princess Lurina is the one who keeps on running. Darts incessantly rained down on each of his footsteps. But the princess had to keep running even though she was already feeling desperate.
Until in the end the escape of the princess stopped when it was right on the edge of the gorge below which there is a river with a fairly swift flow.
The archers stopped right in front of the princess.
"Beautiful, white, and graceful. You are indeed a beautiful creature princess," praised someone from behind the shadow. He seems to be the leader of the traitors.
"But baby, the big boss ordered us to end your life from this world" he continued.
"Don't, I beg you!!" said the princess, bowing her knees and begging to be released.
That man also showed himself. The princess was surprised to see him. Apparently, one of the royal officials who was the mastermind of the attack. Tesserarius Hans, the leader of the king's guard.
"Uncle Hans???" said the princess who did not expect all this.
Commander Hans stared intently at Princess Lurina. He did not say a word after the princess saw herself behind the attack. Unwilling to let his plan fail, Commander Hans raised his right hand as a code for his archers.
"Goodbye, Princess Lurina" Commander Hans told the princess.
He then swung his right hand, the code for the archers to finish off Princess Lurin.
The archers fired arrows at Princess Lurina who continued to beg them for forgiveness. Dozens of arrows shot towards the princess.
A strong wind suddenly blew away the dozens of arrows.
Some of Commander Hans' archers held their chests. Apparently the arrows they were pinning earlier pierced through their own chests.
Commander Hans was surprised by the presence of a black shadow standing right in front of him. Spontaneously, he ordered his troops to retreat. "BACK OFF!!!"
Slowly, the figure revealed its true form. He was seen wearing a black robe that covered his entire body. His face was covered like a mask. He stood upright with his eyes fixed on Commander Hans and his troops.
"You.." said Commander Hans, pointing to the mysterious figure.
