Chapter Three
"Clef ?"asked Princess Emerauld.
"Yes, Princess Emerauld?" replied Clef.
"Humm...How are we going to contact the Legendary Magic Knights? They do not live in Cephiro, and to meet them means that we need to go to their lands and ..."
"I know. Listen everyone, I have a difficult task to some of you. As all of you know, our only hope is to have the Magic Knights by our side. But, to reach them, there will be a lot of dangers. The Magic Knights do not like to be disturbed, only if it something of great concern. So, on the path to reach them, there are some tasks that only the most skillful ones will be able to pass. Only after you have defeated all their tasks will you be able to talk to them and convince them to come to Cephiro and help us. Is there a volunteer?"
Lafarga, Lantis and Ferio promptly stepped nearer Clef.
"I am proud to know we can count with you three. But, I will only accept Lafarga's help. Lantis, as the head of Cephiro's army, you must stay. Ferio, as the prince, you know that you cannot leave Cephiro. Now... Askot, could you help me and try to reach to the Magic Knights?"
"Sure Clef, anything the princess" Answered Askot.
"Very well. Lafarga, you are one of the best swordman in Cephiro. So is the Magic Knight of fire Hikaru. So, your mission is to reach to her. Askot, you do have many good water monters, but remember,the Magic Knight of water Umi has many powerful water spells. Be careful. And now... "
" What about the third Magic Knight, Fuu? " asked Zagato.
"I will be the one to talk to her."
"What?! You cannot do thet, Clef! What will we do without you here in the castle" asked Caldina.
" Look, you do not understand. The Magic Knight of wind Fuu is amazingly powerful when she uses her wind spells.No one here knows a spell against wind or air spells. Actually, there is no spell against it."
" Then why are you going if you know that there is no way to reach to her?" asked Askot.
" I may not be able to defeat her, but at least, I believe my magic will be able to handle with her for a moment, and within this moment, I will ask her to join us to save Cephuro. "
"How do you know that she will not refuse it?" asked Zagato.
" Zagato, don't you know that the Magic Knights have one of the purest hearts in this world? That is one skill the Magic Knights must have to be a Magic Knight" told Princess Emerauld.
" Yes, and I am counting on it."
"When should we leave? The sooner we leave, the sooner this whole thing will finish." Told them Lafarga.
" Yes, let's leave right now! " said a happy Askot, though he was trmbling in the inside.
" No, we'd better leave tomorrow morning. With this, we will have time to prepare ourselves and our minds. Don't forget that this mission is extremely important to our future." said a serious Clef.
" Clef, may I ask you something?" Askot asked.
"Certainly, my friend." Responded Clef.
" The way you told us about the Magic Knights... They seem to be very good people but..."
" And indeed they are. They are very good people, with a lot of kindness, friendship and love in their hearts. Do not doubt about it."
"Then, why do we need to pass through their tasks? Why can't we just go there and ask them?"
"You do not understand."
"What I can't understand? If I am making a mistake, the tell me what it is! I just think it is an absurd to risk our lives if we can simply just talk to them and persuade them to help us! That's all !" shouted an indignant Askot.
" We need to pass through this task to prove them that we are worth of seing them."
"Worth of seing them! But, they are not the most powerful beings in this world, there are..."
"No, they are the most powerful beings in this world. They aved us once and we must show them respect! At that time, it was their duty to protect Cephiro, but once the Princess gave them their own lands, they became free of this duty. We cannot just simply go there and tell them to help us! "
" But..."
" Look, you do not know what it was to be a Magic Knight. Their duty was to protect Cephiro and only that. They did not have a life! They could not stay with their families, nor be with their beloved ones, nor have fun. They were a kind of slave of this land. Now that they are free of that...Sin...Do you really think..."
"I understood Clef. I did not know that their lives were so... miserable. I am sorry for everything I said...I am just...scared..." cried silently Askot.
Clef, once enraged, now felt his sontrol regain his body, and smiled to his friend.
" Askot, don't get so upset. I am not mad at you, I just lost control. I am sorry for discounting all my nervousness on you."
"No, I am the one who should be..."
"Now, now, let's all get some sleep, will you?" asked Zagato. Clef and Askot suddenly noticed that the rest of the group hadn't left the room and had heard all their argument. Their faces showed tiredness and some concern, but now, it only showed tiredness.
" Yes, you are right once more Zagato. Let's have some sleep, all of us".
All of them left Emerauld's bedroom to tgheir respective bedrooms, except Zagato, who stayed a little more in Emerauld's bedroom, to watch her sleep.
~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~" ~"~"
Lafarga showed no fear, but inside he was trembling. He was a very brave man, he did not fear death, he was willing to give his life to save Cephiro. But, he was afraid of failing on bringing the Magic Knight to Cephiro. He was afraid because if he could not bring her there, his land, his princess, his people would suffer the consequences. And it would be all his fault...
He stroke back to his roo. And sank ion his bed. He closed his eyes, but he felt sleepless. His soul was in a turmoil, and his consciousness would not let him sleep until he felt confident again. He sighed. It was going to a long night...
~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~" ~"~"
Askot found difficult to return to his room. His sight was blured, and he did not know why.Finally, after hitting some chairs and tables, he laid on his bed. He closed his eyes. The argument with Clef had got the his whole spirit out of him. He felt tired and guilty. He found out that everything he said showed only that he did not want to accomplish his mission and it made him feel sick.
'How could I doubt Clef's order ? He is always right, I should have remembered that. Yeah...but that is already the past. Come on Askot, you've got to rest and save your energy for tomorrow. It is going to be a tough day.' He told himself.
Finally, he fell asleep.
~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~" ~"~"~
Clef found easily his bedroom. He didn't bother to turn on the lights once hr arrived there. He just stood in the door, watching it in the dark. Blinking a few times, he finally decided to get some sleep. He had decided to read some spells before it, but his eyes just couldn't let him. Everytime he tried, his eyelids got heavier and heavier, and that was when he decided to come to his bedroom.
He sat on the edge of his bed, trying to form a plan but his mind also couldn't sa=tand it anymore. Before he noticed it, everything became dark. A warm and a good feeling ran through his entire body. That was when he was sure that everything would end up fine.
~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~"~" ~"~"~
So, the next day they left Cephiro. They were told by Clef that, once they approach the frontiers of Cephiro and the Magic Knight's land, they would have to go walking, with no other means of transportation. So, their journey started. What will await for each of them?
Hello minna! So, this is the third chapter. I hope you didn't have to wait too much for it. Anyway, have fun ! This chapter isn't full of action but, the next one, it will be. Now, I will stop babbling and let you read this story. Ja ne.
