Heavenly Saga

Chapter 6: Valkyrie Forest

Three days have passed since Kraftvoll started to embark on a journey. Kraftvoll's group is now exiting Schild City and started to enter the territory of Yorkshire City.

Yorkshire City is the town found south of Schild City, a town led by Earl Garen De York. But before reaching the town, Kraftvoll and his escorts must go through the Valkyrie Forest.

Valkyrie Forest is like a web of forest that encompasses the territory of Walkiria Kingdom. Through this forest, the Walkiria kingdom decided that the kingdom will be divided into 29 territories.

But this vast forest, which divides the territories of the kingdom, is known for its many dangers. One of the reasons is that the Valkyrie forest is home to various Seishin beasts especially those from the Angel race. The second danger of the forest is that it is also one of the most favorite spots of the bandits and assassins.

Kraftvoll and his company used the usual route that everyone used to transverse into the Yorkshire territory. The Earl is confident that no one will dare attack the carriage and its escort because of his reputation but the unexpected happens sometimes.

The carriage suddenly stopped. A soldier has suddenly shouted, "Your Lordship, we're under attack!"

The Earl is enraged by the attack. "Who would dare attack a carriage under my name!? I must punish those bastards myself. Guards, protect these two at all costs!"

"Yes, your Lordship!"

Earl Blake rushed to the front carriage in rage. After a few minutes after he went away, another band of bandits attacked the main carriage of the Earl which is where Belle and Kraftvoll are within.

The band of soldiers accompanying the Earl started to defend the carriage with their lives. All of the soldiers accompanying them are all practitioners of seishin. All of them already reached the Captain level. But the enemies are able to overpower them because it has a Lower seishin general at its rank.

"Your Ladyship, run to the Earl! We cannot defend you as it is now. They are able to overpower us. Therefore, we can only exchange our lives to hold them here so please run!" The soldiers desperately shouted.

"My lady, let's go to the Earl," said Kraftvoll to Belle.

"Okay, but it's not because you said it," Belle replied.

The two kids rushed to go out of the carriage to run away from the situation. After going outside the carriage, they saw the fearsome scene of the battle. The two looked away and ran to the direction where the Earl ran.

After a few minutes of running, the two kids encountered another three bandits on their way, causing them to run east. The bandits started to pursue the two kids. As the kids ran from the bandits pursuing them, they heard a fearsome roar but they still continued to run in that direction because they are more afraid of the bandits.

"That's a.. a.. DRAGON!"

The bandits have encountered a dragon, a species that descended from the mythical creature found in the holy land of the Drachen Kingdom. The bandits started to prepare for combat.

All of a sudden, a dragon has appeared. Fortunately, the dragon only has its eyes on the bandits and it only attacked them. The two kids are able to run away from the bandits because the three bandits are engaged in a battle with the dragon.

As Kraftvoll and Belle run away from the bandits, without them knowing, they have reached the territory of the dragon.

"Wait, Kraftvoll, I am tired. Let's rest for a little bit." Belle told Kraftvoll while panting.

"No, we can't, Your Ladyship. But I guess we can walk for a while. But, we can't rest here because those bad guys will come to get us."

The two started to walk. But, as they go deeper into the territory of the dragon, they saw something.

"Wow! Is that..?"
