Thanks for the comment, yeah I know I go a little fast but its either I'm too fast or too slow when I'm writing but I am getting better.
“So another one of those caused the rocks to fall”, Peru said calmly.
“Yes but the bigger question is who put it there”, Kailin mumbled making Peru nod before the pair sat down to rest again.
“Sir he avoided both rockslide and bomb”, a young female voice said from the darkness.
“Hmmm this ones more skilled than we expected”, a deep inhuman male voice sounded from the darkness.
“Should I engaged him then master”, the female voice said with a hint of menace and this was followed by two large red eyes opening several metres above the floor and because of the darkness these eyes were all that was visible.
“No, we will let him feel safe for now”, the voice said calmly as the eyes dropped downwards with a massive thump.
“But master the climb as exhausted him, we should strike now while he is weak and while we can still use the gate pentacle to get to mount Maranora”, the female voice argued but was silenced by a deep growl and a stair from the red eyes.
“Lana you are yet a puppet here to my masters plans and so you will not rise against me for fear of my master destroying you. You have your orders to wait and so you will wait and do nothing else”, the inhuman voice almost yelled making the black room shack slightly.
“As you wish master”, Lana said sadly before her master called another of his puppets to the room.
“Vesper, come my silent blade”, the voice said calmly before a red pentacle glowed in the darkness before fading and after a few seconds of silence a male voice spoke this one sounding more human.
“Master, you called for me”, Vesper said quietly but the voice betrayed his personality as it held so much cruelty and venom that it already betray his place as his masters assassin and a great warrior.
“Vesper I have a job for you, you are to watch the Paladin know as Kailin and report to me whenever you can on his doings. Your information will be important in us bringing him down. Do not fail me”, the voice said before Vesper bowled unnoticed in the darkness before speaking.
“As you wish master”, Vesper said evilly as another red pentacle appeared before fading as Vespers maddening evil laugh echoed throughout the room as he departed.
“But master I could have done that roll just as well as Vesper could have”, Lana argued but was left with a strange response.
“I have another job for you. I want you to spy on Vesper as I have expected him of serving the high master instead of me”, the voice said angrily.
“But why is that wrong master?” Lana asked unsure of why she was doing this.
“My master is turning to the wrong side so I am planning on obeying his orders and double crossing them at the same time”, the voice said calmly before adding. “I want you to guard the Paladin Kailin, get close to him and befriend him and help him overcome Vesper when he attacks him”, the voice said calmly as Lana and Vesper had never worked together and had only meet in the darkness of this room and so have no idea of what the other looks like.
“But sir, how will I know who Vesper is”, Lana asked almost desperately.
“He will be the one who attacks you with his demon wing already spread wide”, the voice said calmly. “You will be assisted by an angel who will arrive later but for now be careful and don’t do anything to alert Vesper till after he begins his attack”, the voice finished and after a few seconds a purple pentacle appeared and Lana left.
Kailin yawned as a rope going straight up in front of him wiggled from side to side as Kailin waited for Peru to put the hock on a ledge out of throwing range. Kailin and Peru had climbed to another ledge above the place the found the explosive device and found the next ledge was too high for Kailin to attach the hock so Peru had to take it up there and put it in place. Kailin started to tap his foot as the second sun started to show late afternoon and the white moon was half visible to the east showing night was going to start very soon. Kailin let out a long sigh before the rope on his belt stopped recreating and tightened showing Peru had made it to the top. Luckily Kailin was using a magic rope that made more of itself when pulled so it now was just a matter of climbing. Kailin pulled on the rope and set off up the slope again at a steady pace now guessing that Peru was sleeping on this ledge.
Around halfway the second sun had fully set and one moon was in the sky with two more now starting to show to the east and north. Then after about an hour more of climbing Kailins foot landed on something soft which cried back in a familiar voice.
“Hey can’t a La’Vera get some sleep on the side of a mountain”, Peru yelled before spotting it was Kailin.
