17 Blinded (1/2)

”I was still unable to summon the divine power within it and couldn't get it to accept me. Another failure like previous times. It used to shine bright, glittering divinely with golden colors along with radiating celestial energy, it's incomparable power -while it is in the strong hands of Ares, but all the enchantment faded away and slowly lost it's charm and power. It was no more than a normally wielded , cheap and dull sword in my hands. I wanted to gain that power of sword no matter what, it can make me strong I'm quite positive.”*

”Got it. ” Gus replies while he kept reminding himself that he needs to become stronger in order to be get chosen by the sword.

Ares and Gus continued the exhausting training for another five days. And after that specific time of strenuous bodily exercise Ares as a token of appreciation handed a book over to Gus which consisted of the teachings of Unholy Sword and inquired him about- to leave the warfield.

”It's been five days already, if the enemies won't show up until tomorrow we will head back to the village. So you go ahead of us now and forward the message to Mars.” Ares assigned a task to Gus who nodded at first.

”Ok. I will be waiting for you to teach me more Ares.” Gus took off with a smile yet with a hint of disappointment that Ares still doesn't want him on the Warfield even when there is no enemy to fight, probably .

[Yawn]

”Guarding Caracus while they're sleeping for five days straight is taking toll on all of us, isn't it Ares? If it isn't for you and your friends, we wouldn't have gotten those 2-3 hrs of sleep.” Edward appreciates the work Ares and his soldiers did as to guard Caracus and letting the Villagers of Mindoro to take naps as well.

People from Mindoro slept for 2-3 hours while Ares and his party watched over them, to oogle for any peril. This shows the amount of hard work they had gone through to stay awake by going without sleep for days and be cautious at the same time rather than drowsy.

But If there is any chance for enemy to show up while they're in this bad situation, the enemy might get an upperhand on the two villages effortlessly.

”Yes it is, I really want to go back to the village and sleep for a week straight ,haha.” Ares replies to Edward with a hint of playfulness half laughing and yawning.

”I really thank your village for not only guarding us but also for help rebuilding our village, Edward. And I see you guys will leave after tomorrow. If no enemy shows up until that time, let's have a toast tomorrow then. Again I really want to thank you warmly for coming here to our help.” Nero chips with grateful eyes.

”No no let's not do a toast ,haha. We agreed to help you so we are not going to accept anything in return. Let us all get along together for tonight. We will be leaving tomorrow evening anyway. ” Edward declines his frank offer with a smile.

”Ahh I see. Too bad... but It's ok.” Nero replies crestfallen with a disappointed face and heads back.
