Chapter 6

The Attack

Elsword's POV

"We're finally here!" Oberon replied. We arrived at the home of the Forest nasods. Their village looked so mystic and a sight to see. Chung, looked around the village and saw the Nasod Prince House. A giant tree, that had stairs all the way to the root to the very top of the tree. I looked down and saw the entire view of the village. Man this tree is huge! We reached the top of the tree, where we saw a tanned-man, with spiky hair with a bit of white. He was wearing a sleeveless black top with some orange decor on it. One of his arm was mechanical and his golden eyes made him look like a threat.

"Hm? Humans, what are you doing in this sacred domain?" He said, peacefully. He seemed less hostile, than the princess. Oberon, then appeared.

"Greetings, Prince Raven. I am here upon Princess Eve's request. These people over here, are Knights from Hamel and came here to deliver a peace treaty." Raven, began to look in surprise.

"Well thats a surprise, I never expect my sister to give in?" Chung, walked up towards him and handed him the letter of open trade route between the Nasods and Human. Raven began to read it and after a while folded the paper, and took a deep breath.

"Well if its fine with my little sister. Very well, we shall open up trade route with you guys." He said with a smile.

"That was easy." I said in a blank face. Raven, then spoke again.

"The Forest Nasod, are much more less hostile. Than the Royal nasod, like my sister and Oberon. We prefer to talk first and fight if necessary, however due to Nasod law we are forbidden to have contact humans. Unless it is approve by the heir of the Royal Nasod Kingdom. I impressed that you were able to convince my sister to allow this." We began staring at Chung, while laughing.

"Well it wasn't that hard." I scratched my head and pretended to laugh.

"It sort of happen like this..." Chung began to explain to Prince Raven, about his little accident.

"Oh so you're my new brother-in law? Please to meet you." He smiled and took out his hand to shake his hand.

"Wait you're allowing such a thing between me and your sister!?" Raven, was confused.

"Yeah, I'm happy for you. What are you saying you refused to be my Sister's husband?"

"Thats..." Just before, Chung could speak. Raven replied in a scary tone.

"If so, then I have no problem killing you right now." He gave a devil look. We stared at Chung, to accept his fate.

"Its a do or die situation. Captain! I say the do situation is the best outcome!" I responded to Chung.

"You already screwed up, might as well give up." Aisha supported the statement. Zoro nodded his head. Chung, looked with at us with his crybaby face and shouted at us.

"What kind of Allies are you two!" He shouted, while tearing up. Raven, was still staring at Chung with murderous intention.

"So what's it gonna be. Are you going to be Eve's Husband or do you want to die?" Chung, looked in fear and gave up.

"Alright you win! Just stop giving me that creepy-ass stare!" Chung said in fear. Raven, expression back to normal.

"Well okay, then. I'll let my sister know that I approve of the trade." Raven put both of his arm on his shoulder.

"Take care of Eve for me. Don't dissapoint me." Chung, looked the other way.

"Um, alright?" Chung just accepted with no choice. Suddenly, we heard footsteps coming this way, it was a nasod messenger. He looked like he was in a hurry.

"*Huff* *Huff* Prince Raven! We got trouble, its your Wife Rena. She's returning back from her home Elverna, with Ember. However, they got jumped by Rogue Nasods!" Raven, looked in shocked.

"Where are they right now?"

"Their in the cross road between Altera Forest and Elverna. Hine Ver Root!" Raven, looked at us.

"I'm sorry, to ask all of a sudden. But can you please help my Wife and one of my knights Ember. Return here safely? Their in Hine Ver Root, the cross-road between here and Elverna." He pleaded for help. I was to first to stood up and replied.

"Will gladly help! A knight never abandons people in need." I immediately left to my destination to help the two and soon Zoro, Chung, Raven, and Oberon followed.

Ember's POV

"Damn bandits, don't you dare lay your hands on the Prince's wife!" I shouted at them, pointing my rifle at them.

"Hah, you're just a mere woman. I bet you don't even know how to use that weapon. Get them!" The bandits started changing towards us. I started shooting, with grand accuracy shooting a group of bandits with one-shot of my bullets. I noticed one of them, tried to attack me from behind. However, that trick won't work on me. I took out a grenade made out of El and shove it into the bandits mouth. "Eat this!" The grenade exploded into his mouth, luckily it was only a practice grenade, so it only knocked him out. They began, to gang up on me. One of them tried to assault Lady Rena.

"Lady Rena!" Just as he was about to attack her. A red-hair boy, appeared out of nowhere and punched him.

"Not so fast!" He send him flying and down on the ground. He took out his sword and began breaking through the other bandits to get to me. "Names Elsword, I'm a Knight of Hamel. Are you Ember?" I nodded my head.

"Yeah, I'm Ember. One of the knights of the Forest Nasods. Please to meet your acquaintance." She smiled back. Soon other people, arrived including of them was the Prince.

"Prince Raven!" I shouted.

"Hi Dear!" Lady Rena, said happily. The bandits began to attack the others, but they ended getting blown away. A blonde-hair man began shooting them down with explosives and a cannon. A purple-hair girl, started to beat them down with magic up-close and their was a man that used the same battle tactics as me, but was able to change his pistols into knives able to get close up and do damage against them. Soon they, all ran away.

"Yeah, run away cowards!" The red-hair boy shouted at them. Suddenly, one of them that was hidden tried to stab the mage girl. However, the Red Knight quickly reacted and defended the girl by blocking it with his sword. Causing him to send his sword up in the air and making him numb his right arm. However, punched him with left arm.

"Don't you dare hurt Aisha!" He shouted. The bandit, began running away.

"Gahh, I can't feel my right arm. Nor move it!" Raven wents towards him and stretch his right arm.

"Does this help?" The knight, yelled in pain.

"Ow, yeah. Thanks." I looked at the group of Knight, by the looks of it they must be from Hamel. Just before, I could introduce myself to them. The ground started to shake. It soon became windy as well.

"What's happening?!" The Purple mage replied. We looked up to see what it was. It was a dragon.

"A dragon! Here?!" Raven said in shocked. The Red-Hair simply smiled and picked up his blade and pointed his blade at it.

"A dragon, now thats something you don't see everyday. I'm gonna beat it! He began running head-on towards the dragons.
