Chapter 285: Stealing Daggers or forks!

"And how will you do so?" asked the lady with a chuckle.

"Who are you actually?" asked the man sitting in the center for the first time since the conversation started.

"We are someone who can help you in getting everything you want, the battle you are trying to fight, would take you nowhere." said Cassius and i sighed.

They all were warriors, fighting battles and sacrificing their life in them was something they had done all their life.

Even if the reason was foolish, they would see it as something very glorious.

"We are not afraid of battle children, if it ensures the safety of our future. And about other things. It sounds like a new life but I am afraid to say that we all are habitual of the way we are living. The empire and emperor can not be trusted by us" said the man cutting all the conversation.

"But then how are you so sure that other knights would not come if these were killed?" he said again and the man laughed.

"Who are you, the emperor, that they will; continued to send more knights for you. Once these knights are killed your old clothes and belongings would also be thrown in the town with them far away from here. And no one would be able to find you." said the man with a chuckle.

"Would you not ask for the opinion of an oracle, what if you were not able to get rid of the knights. What if they have further back up. Why don't you ask and get a better advice.'' I added and looked at them with confidence.

They looked at each other and then nodded, "very well, since the oracle has met you and even predicted for you, it means she trusts you. Once the sun will set. we will go and ask oracle for the advice" they replied and i looked at the sky, it was already past noon and twilight would fill the sky soon. So I nodded. It was not like we could do anything else about it.

I knew running wild was easier at that time. But they were my benefactors of past life and my heart was saying we would need their help in this life too. So I wanted to maintain the relationship with them. Now all I could do was hope that there would not be many deaths on both sides.

"We are getting injured badly, we need more help." said a warrior as he came running towards us. His hand had a dagger stabbed, and I didn't need to know that it was my brother's work.

The man looked in pain and worried and Cassius sighed, "why, are you not feeling glorious now. I have said 100 times that war would bring casualties but you were not ready to listen. ``His voice was full of anger and I was sure the real brooding and prideful Cassius was on the surface.

"You know what, I have seen many fools in real life. But you sure have taken the first place even more stubbornly than my wife who I thought had given strong competion to even the queen. 

What the hell would you achieve with this battle? In the end we are going to return home. The question is do you want to get rid of the name of outlaw and live a better life or you always wanted to rot here in the enclosed area with your family?

You think dying is something good! Have you ever thought about small kids who become orphans? They have one to depend on? You dumbwit, let us go now and I would forget that we ever had this argument. But if you wasted another moment, I would make sure that you will suffer till eternity for the deaths that have taken place because of your indecisiveness." he said so coldly as if he owned all of them.

Even Kai was surprised, let alone the elders who were sitting high there. I am sure he was really pissed now.

"Just look at the man who is injured here." he said, dragging the man in front. "He is not injured protecting you, nor is he injured for some glorious reason. He is injured because all of you are headstrong and wilful, even the mule would have listened after so much argument." he snarled and then he looked at me.

"Come we are going out now and going to end this fight. I am not going to wait for some magic and foretelling and let many people die for foolish reasons." he said as he held my hand and started walking out.

They all were stunned for a minute that they did not react, but when they came to their senses, many shouted.

"Stop them, do not let them pass the door." shouted the elders and many came towards us.

Cassius gave me a stern look when he passed me daggers.

I looked at him surprised because these are their daggers. How and when did he steal them? As if reading my expressions he chuckled, 

"When I was dragging the injured man in the middle" he shrugged his shoulders and I blinked.

"I guess we would not need this then." I replied, as I bent and took out a napkin in which a few knives and forks were enveloped. I opened it and took out forks and knives.

"You stole the utensils?" he asked, amused and surprised.

"These could hurt too" I replied as a matter of fact. "Stab the fork and you will know, '' I added when he did not stop staring at me and in the end he shook his head. He let go my hand and turned back to look at the men following us

"Keep walking, I will cover you, go and stop the fight. I will make sure no one will be able to come in between."

"But what about you?" i aske worried as the men were cooing close.

"They would not hurt me seriously. I am one of them. Nor would my wife. So stop worrying and go." even at the moment did he have the time and courage to use endearing worlds.

"Now go, or are you going to just drool over my looks by standing there"
