Chapter 4: The Guardian

Four days had passed since the two Guards set fire to the Nutt house, and everyone in the town was worried about Devil. A man named Agro went to the remains of the Nutt house, and looked around.

Agro searched the house for any sign of Devil. He found nothing. As he was walking back to his home in Taverly, he heard a cry.

"WHHAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!"

What is that?!?!?!?! He wondered.

Agro went back to the house and looked where the closet was. There, he found Devil, the lost baby of Taverly. He took the baby and carried it home.

Agro and Devil went to Agro's home, where Devil grew up for the next 16 years.

Agro had trained Devil to become the greatest swordsman ever. By age 4, Devil had wiped out every person in the Kingdom of Asgarnia in an archery competition. By age 6, Devil was able to lift Agro's house. By age 9, Devil had also wiped out every bear in Asgarnia. And by age 16, Devil had been in a swords competition, and had defeated every White Knight in the White Knight's Castle.

Devil had always noticed something different about Agro. And he could not figure out what it was.
