The 10 Legendary Swords
Avan Ariville

Before Arav determines the fate of Maya and Clare, he first decides to search for the remaining members of the spy group through the help of Clare who knows the location of the hideout of his other team members, it is not far from Garlet.

"This village used to be our hiding place before people went to evacuate ..."

Clare added that since the civil war, many houses have been vacated because they chose to go to the city of Arnet to seek shelter.

Masket who initially did not expect the condition of his team members like now felt guilty for not being able to help them faster.

"Imee! Aadaline! The chika! I know you guys are in this place! Come out ..."

Arav turned his head to the side after finding three beautiful girls in their 12s walking towards him, one of them showing a look of caution.

Arav was concerned after noticing the appearance of the girl who was seen wearing tattered camping clothes.

"Avan Avan is indeed very cruel to tell them to fight, is he very out of human resources to employ them?" Arav murmured softly before shaking his head, sympathetic to the girls' condition of arguably living in an unworthy place, "Masket, how much money do you need to buy them new clothes?"

Masket was stunned, "Is master planning to ..."

"True, buy them clothes, food and drink ..." Arav looked at the three girls who were now kneeling before him, "Bless your heads and stand up! I just can't bear to see your condition like this ..."

"Master has been kind to us who are strangers to you ... Please do not hesitate to ask one of us to serve you tonight ..." Clare also knelt before Arav, making the young man even more confused.

"I know of a place that sells clothes for them ... Should we go to Garlet City now?" Masket.

"Wait on! Isn't it too dangerous for you to go to that city? I heard that the city of Garlet has fallen into the hands of the enemy!" A girl named Adaline interceded.

Clare immediately stared intently at the girl, "Master doesn't have to bother just for the sake of buying us clothes going to dangerous places. I'll be there to replace chairman Masket ..."

"No need ..." Arav shook his head. But Clare insisted on preventing him from going to the city in question, making Maskets have to explain their true purpose.

***

"Duke Sanjaya, and his fiancee please enter my humble abode ..."

Arav finds a magnificent room, with luxurious decorations, but what surprised him was Avan Ariville's warm attitude towards him that seemed fake, maybe wanting to establish a good relationship with him.

"Uncle Avan is indeed too often to amaze me ... What is simple, this residence is similar to a luxurious palace in the capital."

Currently Arav wears the identity of Duke Sanjaya and changes his appearance to a young man who looks very handsome while wearing military clothes.

He came not only to visit the city but to meet the supreme leader of his father's enemy army, Avan Ariville.

"Duke has bothered to come to this city just to see me ... Please sit at the table I have prepared ..." Avan Ariville directed Arav and the troupe towards the dining table.

"Does it matter if I bring a bodyguard inside?" Arav asked but his gaze was fixed on Clare.

"Ahh, actually you don't have to worry about security in this residence." Avan Ariville looks at Arav and blatantly explains the security conditions of Garlet, before giving permission when the young man shows a blank smile.

When Arav and Masket enjoyed the banquet, the Maya, Adaline, and 10 Vinterm soldiers were at the armory and immediately contacted the rest of the group.

Maya and Adaline have no significant resistance when facing the guards of the armory and have taken thousands of firearms.

Then put it in the horse carriage that Arav had prepared earlier with escorted by dozens of soldiers, with Chika and Esmee as the most responsible.

When the banquet was almost over, the last gun was placed Maya on the train.

"Ahh, I'm sure Maya and the others have already completed the mission ..." Mumbled Arav while giving a sign to Masket to immediately leave the residence.

But Avan Ariville who felt his goal had not been achieved prevented him, "Is Duke planning to stay at this place? Actually I'd like to ask for help from Vinterm to cooperate ..."

"Oh, say ..." Arav fixed his sitting position.

"Can you help or at least support me in winning the war against Duke Ariville ..."

Arav asked Avan Ariville to deploy about 15,000 Vinterm mercenaries to join his army.

Meanwhile, he did not ask for a fee in the form of wealth, but asked the middle-aged man to hand over some of the firearms owned by the city of Garlet to him which amounted to 45,000 of the total of 90,000 firearms.

"The Garlet City is producing too many of these weapons, plus there are only hundreds who are able to use them, it never hurts to give them ..." Avan Ariville muttered and then told a military commander to prepare for the handover of weapons.

Because according to him the most needed right now is a lot of human resources to overcome the Ariville family troops and members of the Kingdom, Avan Ariville does not really need this weapon. But the consideration is the price of a firearm which is quite expensive.

Not long after, a servant came with a pale face, Arav was very sure that the cause was the loss of the weapon.

"What ... Ten thousand firearms were stolen? Who did it?!" The screams of Avan Ariville.

Arav frowned as the number was not as he had expected, "I think this cunning man only kept his entire weapon in one place ... I can't believe there's another armory in town ..." Mumbled slowly.

"Ahh, Duke doesn't need to worry about this matter. My men will soon take care of it ..." Avan Ariville felt bad for surprising his guests.

"I'm sure you'll solve this problem soon and hope that sir is not too hasty in finalizing our deal. What if I give you time to find the culprit, while me and Marisaa are going on vacation in this town ..."

Right now what flashed through his mind was to find the whereabouts of another armory and search for a girl who was his servant sister. So he decided to stay longer while traveling around the city on the grounds of vacation.

"I understand and thank you for deciding to travel in this city ... The butler will prepare a special room for you, and Miss Marisaa ..." Avan Ariville called the butler in question.
