Around 5 days passed since the meeting of Williams and the King of the Windsway Kingdom.
It was night time, the wind was cold—winter had arrived. The trees were flowing along the way of the wind, they looked happy.
There was not much wildlife awake. Few insects were flying to their holes, while the predators were trying to hunt during night time.
There was an owl on the branch of a big tree and beneath that branch was a camfire lit. It was surrounded by 4 logs and on those 4 logs, few people were sitting.
On 3 logs, 2 people were sitting on each while on one, only a single one. It was the group of Alice.
The white masks were laying beside them and all of them were eating meat. They must had hunted down an animal and cooked it meat on the campfire.
The campfire's fire was lighting their face with a orange light. Their face were shining.
While eating, Ashura asked, "Lusifer, where are we supposed to go now? What are we supposed to do now? "
Lilith added, "Yes, we have secured some food supply but now we need to have a goal. "
Alice smiled and said, "Yes, I know that. I have a good goal in my mind. We need to become strong to conquer my original goal, but before that to be strong, we need weapons and for that we are going to start weapon hunting. "
Asmodeus smiled and said, "Weapon hunting, you see that's illegal. "
Alice replied, "I am the devil, and you all are my servants. And tell me, what kind of devil and it's servant follow ruled? "
Beelzebub laughed and said, "Interesting, really interesting. Well then, what kinda weapon we are gonna go after first? "
Alice replied, "The Azure Dragon Scythe. "
All of them except Alice stopped eating.
Ashura said, "But I thought it was just a myth. Nothing like that existed. "
Alice replied, "That is for the commoners like us. "
Lilith questioned, "What do you mean? "
Alice questioned back, "Tell me, why has every kingdom made weapon hunting illegal? "
They had no answer. Then Persephone resumed eating meat. It was like she had no interest, or she was just being part of it while eating.
Alice replied, "I knew none of you will have any answer. Has anyone of you heard of the Weapon Recurrence? "
Finally, Perspephone spoke, "Isn't that the phenomenon when a weapon unleashes it's true potential along with it's true power, becoming associated with some kind of super power. "
Alice replied with a big smile, "Bingo! Absolutely correct."
Beelzebub questioned, "I didn't understand. I never heard of it. "
Asmodeus said, "I did hear of it long ago. But I never found a weapon like that. "
Alice replied, "Well, the Azure Dragon Scythe is one of the few scythes having a Recurrence. And so, we are going to have it for ourself. "
Lilith questioned, "After we get it, who is going to be the owner of it? "
Alice replied, "As Persephone answered my question correctly, the scythe will belong to her. "
Ashura questioned, "Lusifer, tell me one thing. Does your blade has a recurrence too? "
Alice looked at his black blade which was laying beside his right leg, smiled and said, "Of course not. It's just a normal weapon. And I am not lucky enough to get such weapon. "
Asmodeus questioned, "But where are we going to find this Azure Dragon Scythe? "
Alice replied, "Have you heard of the legend of Oliver? "
He shook his head.
Alice started explaining with a smile, "He was a warrior, from the Village Of Warrior and the strongest warrior in their bloodline. He defeated a commander after joining the army of the Windsway Kingdom. But currently, he does not exist and I do not know whether his bloodline is alive or not as we annihilated the whole village. The Windsway kingdom is currently in a political dispute with Rosewood Kingdom because of an object which resides inside the Rosewood Kingdom and that object is the Azure Dragon Scythe. "
Ashura said, "Oh, so we are supposed to infiltrate the Rosewood Kingdom? "
Alice replied, "Of course not. We are not strong enough to take on a full army of two kingdoms. When it comes to the safety of the Azure Dragon Scythe, the both kingdom will form an alliance no matter the number of enemies they have. They will completely remove us from this world without any trace. "
Beelzebub questioned while chewing on the meat, "Then how are we supposed to get the scythe? "
Alice replied, "It's going to be a long journey, but it will be worth it. "
Lilith questioned, "You have a plan in mind? "
Alice replied with a smile, "Of course. Do you guys want to hear? "
Ashura said, "What kinda question is that? Of course we want to. "
Alice explained the whole plan to them which took around an hour or more and after that, they finished their dinner and call it a day.
They all slept near the campfire with a person being awake at a time to guard from wild animals. At first, Ashura was choosen to be awake for 1.5 hours, after that Lilith, Persephone, Beelzebub, Asmodeus and when Alice's turn came, the sun already started rising.
Still, Alice let them sleep for 1 and half an more and then woke them up.
Their first mission was now to secure the breakfast. They were on a very green mountain about 20 kilometres away from the Village Of Warriors. It was a pretty big mountain with many trees and wildlife which was now awake. It was not going to be difficult to find an animal and hunt it down. And even if they don't, there was a small village around 2 kilometres away and they could just infiltrate it and get themself some food.
In two hours, they hunted a pair of wild boar and cooked it's meat, ate it and got ready to dispatch to their next location and the first part of the plan of Alice—the Rosewood Kingdom.
