One Path One Chance - Chapter 11 Lucky Encounter

We could see our destination, but more dangerous everything got.

Mesla was scouting around, to avoid large groups or dangerous beings in the forest.

We made many circles to avoid forest monsters, it made our trip longer, but we were still on the right path.

It was the sixth day at night.

All of us were resting, and I was reading one of the Miklakla books, this was the last book he had, about history.

The book was boring, only about what happened and how our Sun Lion empire fought with glory and defended our land.

I couldn’t sleep today, because I was excited since we were near our goal.

What was the worst part is that I don’t even know how to use the sword or mysterious power we all have in this world.

I have been trying, but I have achieved nothing so far.

I don’t know when I fell asleep. But on next morning James woke me up.

He told me: Look above trees.

I first didn’t see anything, because of that I searched a great spot to see through trees.

What I saw there was a mountain, I didn’t see the tip. But other mountains weren’t large, bearly mountain height.

Mesla called out to us: Don’t watch, we have to go, I want to make it there today.

After that Mesla left, and we followed.

We were finally near the mountain.

Following Mesla I realized that he plans to gross with us the mountain from the left side, where a weird rising path to the mountainside come out.

Soon we reached near the path.

I could see old broken stone tiles, on the path.

I was a bit surprised because I haven’t seen any constructions in Lost Blood Lands.

We slowly started to move on the path.

Not long we all stopped because we saw a bush on top of a small cliff and cave near it.

Ains spoke: I will risk it.

Mesla: Shut up, we are almost there, we can steal later.

Ains: I need something to eat, I understand our goal, but I rather take the fruits, it’s clear that they are eatable since they are bright red.

Miklakla: Calm down. I can help you steal if you want, I am hungry as well, we all are.

James: Yes we all are.

I quietly watched their small fight from the side.

Melsa: Sorry, we are so near, and I want to leave from here, I don’t want this inhuman life.

James: We all want, but if eat something we can perform better in the lich cave.

Ains: I apologize as well, I am too hungry, affect my mind.

Ains told it while laughing, other laughed as well on his words. I didn’t find it funny though.

Mesla: Let me steal then, but if I sense danger from the cave, I will jump down and we will hastily go on.

No one objected.

Mesla looks up and observer bush, suddenly he ran.

When Mesla reached near the cliff, he jumped.

He moved like an agile monkey.

When he reached next to the bush, he started hastily throw the fruits, and we all reacted below.

We run around catching fruits, fruits were fist size.

It got a bit difficult after third fruit, I throw my fruits near the rock, which had grass bed surrounding it.

A bit later suddenly Mesla jumped down before ground his legs and hand shined and slowed his jump down.

He hastily whispered trough magic: pick the fruits and move.

I rushed near the rock and picked all my fruits, total nine, with the fruit that was still on my hand.

After filling my hands with fruits, we ran on, following the path.

We ran like crazy for a while until Mesla stopped.

James asked: What happened.

Following Evets: What happened there?

Mesla: It was a snake cave, I almost got bitten. Luckily snake queen was sleeping.

Miklakla: Queen snakes, arent those flying snakes?

Mesla: Yeah those.

Evets: Was running away enough?

Mesla: I hope, I even used all my energy to but as much wind I could to support our path, I am very exhausted.

Ains suddenly laughed and told: Don’t worry about that, we got the fruits.

James: Are you sure we have time to rest right now?

Mesla: I think it’s better to move, Queen was probably woken up by now.

James looked like he was thinking and suddenly spoke out: Ains, give us your fruits and carry Mesla, we will move on.

Ains: Are you sure Mesla cant walk?

Mesla: I cant, I overused my wind energy, even though I am wind warrior and mage, it doesn’t help much, we all still grade 0.

Ains looked sad, but still gave us his fruits, he even told us to hold them probably, or we will face his anger.

I found Ains bit funny, but I found even funnier how he took Mesla with both arms and carried Mesla in princess style.

Other were also secretly laughing, both Mesla and Ains faces were red.

Ains angry told: I can’t carry him on my back he has armor, sword, and knives.

After that, we all burst out laughing, on that Ains angry moved on.

After laughing, we followed Ains and Mesla.

Mesla suddenly spoke: James but rest fruits on me, and go look out for us we don’t want to face unexpected danger.

James: Yeah, I overlooked this part.

Ains stopped with Mesla, to allow James to put his fruit on Mesla, then we moved on.

James didn’t find anything dangerous. And we didn’t face any danger on the rest of our trip.

Before night we arrived near the Lich Tree Cave.

It was the name I come up for the tree. I think it suited.

We rested near the tree, but not to close, because we didn’t want to face unexpected danger.

Mesla was bit recovered, because of that he looked around to make sure this place is safe to rest.

At same time Ains counter our fruits, total fifty-eight.

All of us got nine fruits, but one was left over.

Ains hastily eat it and told: He suffered.

We all laughed at that because he did suffer in embarrassment.
