246 Forced March (2/2)
”Stronger than Song Chen! Stronger than Markus! I think I'm even stronger than Remian!”
George shook his head. ”Everybody and his uncle is stronger than Remian.”
”True. But that's not the point! The point is, they can't force me to do what I don't want to do. Nobody can!” Mindy proclaimed. ”And they can't bribe me either! Not for all the sweets and candy in Ashdale!”
Exel turned to his men sternly. ”Who offered the little girl sweets and candy?!”
”We didn't do it!” his aide protested volubly. ”It wasn't us!”
”Too bad.” Exel grunted. ”I was going to promote whoever did.”
His crew were aghast.
”Anyway. Let's go.” Exel said, gesturing.
”I'll stop you!” Mindy growled, eyes narrowed. She put her hand on her sword hilt.
Someone grabbed it. Mindy turned to see a helmeted figure in full Temple Knight armor with golden insignia on the shoulders. She drew her sword anyway, determined to fight it out…
And failed. She couldn't draw her sword. She couldn't even budge her hand an inch. She turned to look at the armored figure grasping her hand. ”What…?”
”Mindy…” George grimaced. ”Meet Jared of Ecclesia… Doom's teacher.”
Doom's teacher?!
Mindy gulped, still trying to free herself, but that man's grip was completely immovable. For all her strength, the likes of Doom and his teacher was clearly beyond her.
Overconfidence! Mindy suddenly regretted stepping into arrogance.
”You three, handle it.” Doom's teacher shoved Mindy into the hands of three other Temple Knights.
Mindy saw her chance and leapt for it. She threw them off…
Except they didn't go flying. They didn't even stir. All three had a hand on her, and not even one so much as twitched.
”H-how…?” Mindy stared. How were these guys all so strong? Were all Temple Knights this powerful? That was impossible! In the past, Sir Ivan was nowhere near this tough!
Unless Jared did something to her… weakened her… or… or…
”So, I hear Doom is around.” One of the helmeted knights chuckled. ”It's been years since the four of us gathered in one place.”
”Decades.” Another of the three said. ”But finally, the Sure-Die Quattro will reunite.”
Mindy suddenly had a very strong suspicion. ”George… are they…?”
”The three of them are fellow students of the same teacher as Doom. Apparently they were famous back in their time.” George grimaced.

”Fel, Fate, Doom and Damnaith. We never failed to live up to the name of the Sure-Die Quattro… until Doom left us some years back. Then we became the Sure-Die Trio.” The third knight mentioned.
Mindy was starting to understand that for all her strength, there were, in fact, even stronger people in the big wide world.
”Let's go. We have wasted enough time here.” Exel ordered.
”Where to?”
”To the south! The Source of Magic awaits!”
