The 5 Elemental Lord
Sieges
The next day, Zeno woke up from his night's sleep.
Ania, then walked into the room that Zeno was currently occupying with her pretty face. With a friendly smile, he said, “If you can stand up, then my father asked you to have breakfast together.”
Zeno then nodded, standing up from his bed to fulfill Krum's call. But actually he was not too interested to join breakfast together, but he wanted to leave and say a lot of thanks for helping him. After all, Zeno was not one to forget to thank someone.
Finally Zeno followed Ania out of her room. But while trying to walk towards the dining area, Zeno and Ania listened to a noise outside her house.
“All the residents of this house, I hope you get out as soon as possible!”
Krum, and his family, and Zeno were shocked by the screams. Especially Zeno, he felt this shout coming from the imperial side that was eyeing him. But on the other hand, he somehow got a very good feeling.
Zeno and Ania leave the house to find out what happened, even though Zeno already knows what will happen. But at least making sure was not a bad thing, it could probably be that the voice from outside the house was not the imperial party like what was thought before. Even Krum and his wife who were eating were so shocked by the sound, however, that he and his wife tried to get out and confirm what was happening.
Looking out, both Krum and his family, they were all knitted. They were all surrounded by important people. Even Zeno himself saw the Duke, the king of Buras. Not only that, Hanof who lost his hand also took part in the siege, and beside him were dozens of the best soldiers who had previously attacked Zeno.
Then Zeno looked at Dion Nothan hatefully, however, if it were not for him, Zeno would not have been dragged into this matter. Beside Duke Arlos, there was a heavily injured Turse with an arrow bow wrapped around him. Instead of a grudge, Zen smiles broadly at Turse, despite not having a grudge, but in Zeno's heart, he wants to rematch her.
Really at this moment Zeno was already feeling cornered. There was no way out for him, all the soldiers here had pointed arrows, so that if Zeno tried to enter Krum's house, the soldier would not hesitate to shoot him.
“Zen! Rungdaf's men. I hope you give up!” Shouted one of the soldiers.
Krum and his family were surprised not to be trapped, he did not expect that the person he helped was Zen who became the target of the empire. Hearing this, Zeno was looked at seriously by the Krum family. Even they were really sorry for helping Zeno.
“See! We've been dragged into trouble with him, it's all you've done for helping strangers. Look at! We have become criminals.” Shouted Krum's wife scolding Krum all out.
“I didn't expect Zeno, that you were a member of Rungdaf.” Ania looked sad.
Seeing this, Zeno gritted his teeth firmly. He then pulled the Ice Sword on his back with a sense of killing, even now he seemed to have no heart to forgive them anymore. No matter what, whether Zeno would become an evil figure in the continent, he would no longer be able to forgive this excessive accusation.
“Do you want to catch me? Please all of you go forward, I make sure you won't be able to breathe tomorrow.” Shouted Zeno.
“Not those who will fight you, but I!”
Suddenly the figure of the man with his two swords landed right before Zeno, it was very clear that the man's face was also filled with the desire to kill Zeno. His body was covered with Armor clothes made of very shiny white ice.
“General Zhuo.” Krum's body became trembling after finding out who the person who landed was right before him. That said, no one could win against general Zhuo. Even a few years ago, general Zhuo managed to repel Rungdaf even though Zhuo himself was almost dying.
Hearing what Krum said, that the figure on his bike was General Zhuo, Zeno narrowed his eyes while raising the Ice Sword. “So you are general Zhuo? It's an honor to be able to meet such a strong person like you. I heard that you are the son of emperor Aurrora?”
General Zhuo smiled widely as he held his two swords together, then he said, “From your face I somehow remembered someone. But forget it, because according to the story, someone has nine twins in this world.”
“I also feel like that, somehow you look like my brother who is far away in the continent there. But I believe in your words, that man has nine twins in this world.” Zeno said with a big smile.
“Say! where did you get the Ice Sword?” Asked general Zhuo in a high tone.
“Is this too important to you?” Zeno raised the tip of his lips. “Maybe you will know later.”
Zeno slowly advanced by thrusting the Ice Sword, while general Zhuo he also slowly retreated while being on standby when Zeno had raised his sword. Currently, the two of them had been in the midst of a siege where neither of them had made an attack for the first time.
Even the two just moved while staring between eyes so seriously, resulting in a state so quiet with a breeze of cold wind blowing through the pores of their skin.
Looking at Zeno and general Zhuo who had not made an attack at all, the entire people who had been doing the siege became even more worried. Either way it seems like between the two sides will be having a serious fight between life and death. This frightened some of Zhuo's generals when they were defeated, but many believed that Zhuo's generals would not be defeated that easily.
“Lighting step.” Zeno then moved as fast as lightning to initiate an attack, currently he was moving and was behind general Zhuo by slashing his Ice Sword.
But it seemed that general Zhuo noticed it easily, he turned around back and fended off the Ice Sword movement that was about to hit him.
Zeno smiled again, he did not expect that anyone would be able to realize the lightning speed he had. But he did not panic too much as general Zhuo was about to fend off his sword. Zeno then tried to set foot on the ground and moved as fast as lightning towards the side of general Zhuo.
Unfortunately right next to general Zhuo, Zeno opened his eyes when he noticed that there was a slowly growing bubble of water. Realizing this, Zeno immediately jumped back before it was too late.
