Farm''s Duke


    With the dead of the princess the midnight turned darker than it should be. The most problematic aspect was the presence of Runners. The Duke got the news that the Arena Runners crossed the gates before it closed.


    The carriage pullers moved the carriage at different path so that the Runners should not follow behind. Well it was utterly impossible for them to look for the path in the middle of the night.


    "It is night. Are we going to stay till morning?" rk asked from left side. Junan gritted his teeth, "Man use your eyes and lead us. We are not standing here for entertainment and wee slogans." Junan was not sarcastic usually however rk forced him to say it that way.


    His words made them chuckle. rk stifled hisugh. He found those words funny though team head was roasting him. Team head wasughing silently after throwing sarcasm.


    Itaten Farm was under the orders of the Duke. Duke got the news that the Runners entered in the farm now it was his responsibility to stop them from further advancement.


    Itaten Farm spread from the East of M city and ended at the edges of the me tower. This tower was the first in the queue. There were total six towers and one Ruby that was rudimentary base of the Orlenia Pce.


    The king was confined in the Orlenia Pce till the omens of the curse disappear. The Ruby was also in the Pce. The Orlenia Tower was the expected ce was the Rituals.


    Hundred pairs of the young couples were selected to throw in the ming Orlenia Tower during the rituals. There was a small girl that the king would personally sacrifice in order to get rid the curse.


    The girl was born with the signs of Ashmorn. Ashmorn were the rare type of humans those bring the signs of health, wealth and safety of the nation. The old master predicted that if the king sacrificed five years old girl Ashmorn the curse would vanish out.


    The reason behind this prediction was straight. Earlier only male Ashmorn born in the Empire, this time it was different. When little Ashmorn came to know about the sacrifice she did something that the King was unaware of.


    Now she was waiting that someone should appear and save her from this sacrifice. The sacrifice of Ashmorn would bring destruction for the seven Empires while the old master predicted to sacrifice her.


    Ashmorn was also confined in the Orlenia Pce.


    She was sure that Arena Runners would save her from the clutches of the king.


    Suddenly the streetmps lit up. They were at distance however team members could see where they were standing. They were standing at the borderline of the Itaten Farm and several hundred soldiers were standing at the opposite to wee them.


    "The light is not necessary actually." Junan gulped dry breath. He thought that the enemies were oblivious yet they were standing here fully equipped.


    "Who would have thought that the wee troops are ready here?" team head waved his hand. The sword stood out in the dullness of the night.


    Jake felt sweat pouring from his forehead. "I will read the text." Orin hurriedly asked to open the book of detection. "You are funny at this moment though I do not want it tobel funny. Why do you want to make it funny by the way?" Albert was speechless.


    The others were having some horriblements in their heads however at thement of Albert they thought it was enough for the time being. Orin picked his mace and sighed.


    "I was joking man." He was stumped but this was the only exnation.


    "Since you say so…" Albert nodded. The troops were standing with the long guns. They resembled hunting guns.


    New generation did not know that such type of guns existed. "These troops are going to capture us?" Sashi asked.


    "Capturing us or stopping us from levelpletion is simr. You can take any of it." Team head cleared.


    Sashi rose up her eyebrows. "Then they are at the wrong ce." She took aim at them ready to start the battle. The front troops targeted them with the guns. Albert spread his shield. None of the target hit them.


    "Considering our present location, it will be better to escape somewhere. At this ce the troops can corner us easily. Our location should be different. There is no space for retreat." Team head spoke.


    It was to make the team members aware their present circumstances. Their actions could determine good results and bad one too.


    "Are we going to escape toward the darker side of the area?" rk pointed. At their left there were no streetmps or perhaps there were no streets. It was easy to hide in the dark rather than run toward the open. They knew that they were in the Itaten Farm however the rest of situation was unclear.


    "It is decided then. Albert is providing cover while Sashi will attack without dy. Jake can take aim with the gun however if needed or the situation turned grim then do not hesitate to do some fireworks show." Team head divided their jobs for this escape.


    Team head wanted to stay in the Itaten Farm for some time and check what was going on. He also wanted to guess some important clues. Their current pace was good enough. It would not create burden for them however knowing about the number of tasks was bigger concern.


    The formation of the tasks was quiteplex in the second level. He did not want his team members get stuck during some task for the reason of ignorance about the type of task.


    Until now they came to know that their team should work against the king and steal feast of kings yet they were not sure how long it would take them to reach there.


    Jake was also worried because his level tasks were different. They suddenly appear.. It seemed the task window did not want to share prior knowledge of events.
