The legend of the Azure Dragon Scythe was so famous in the Rosewood and the Windsway kingdom that every person, even a child knew about it. But it's existence was the only thing which was kept secret.
Only the royal families knew about it in the Rosewood Kingdom and in the Windsway kingdom, only the king and his most precious soldiers knew about it.
The Azure Dragon Scythe was a very beautiful scythe. A 2 metre long weapon with it's handle being in curved shape and shining like blue-cyan diamond. It's blade was so beautiful that anyone would abandon their own weapon, no matter how strong their weapon was for the Azure Dragon Scythe. The Azure Dragon Scythe was given the title of the Most Beautiful Weapon in the Rosewood Kingdom.
It's blade was around 1 metre in length and it was of sapphire color with blue gradient shining. The blade had design of dragon scales and from that it could the term "dragon" in it's name.
But what power it hold? Only the wielder knew about it and currently, it was lonely with no wielder inside the lonely abyss Rosewood Kingdom.
It was morning time, late morning in general. Alice was walking ahead in his group followed by Lilith, then Persephone and then rest.
They were searching for something, but what was it? It was a caravan, a lonely caravan.
But what is a lonely caravan? In this world, lonely caravan is a caravan which seek different kingdoms for trade and they don't have permit to trade in a particular kingdom as the king and it's commitee don't allow it.
But why did they need it? The answer was in the next part of Alice's plan.
On the left of Alice's group was a hill and on their right was a river flowing. The water of the river was so clear that they could see inside it. In the river, few fishes were swimming but the river was lonely as their was not a single flower to talk to it around it.
There were many stones surrounding it.
A group of rabbit was drinking water from the river and few of them were looking at the group of Alice in case.
Few birds were flying in the clean sky. Even though the sky was clear and there was sunlight, but there was still cold. On normal dogs, there was often fog but today, it was pretty clear.
The air was making the bushes and branches of tree move smoothly. It was difficult to tell whether the bushes were moving because of an animal or the wind.
The group was moving silently, but then the silence was killed by the sudden question of Ashura.
"Do you really think we will find a lonely caravan in this place? "
Alice turned his head and looked at him from the corner of his left eye. Ashura startled for a second and then Alice moved his head ahead and said with a calm but cold voice, "Maybe. Or maybe not. But as much as I know, lonely caravans often wander around nature to find resources to trade. And we are in the area of nature. "
Ashura sighed, took a breath of relaxation and replied, "But it isn't necessary for them to be around us today, right? "
Beelzebub was walking behind the group in case of any surprise attack. He closed eyes after hearing Ashura's words, sighed in his heart and replied to his question, "It isn't wise to question the actions of the leader of your group, kid. "
Hearing Beelzebub's words, Alice said with a very cold voice, "Beelzebub, I am sure I made myself clear that each and everyone of us are going to call ourself by our code name, and Ashura's code name is Ashura I believe so. "
Hearing Alice's words, Beelzebub bowed his head in embarrassment and said, "My apologies to you, Lusifer. I won't do it again. "
Alice didn't say anything, he just kept walking ahead. Again, the silence returned back to the group and without saying a word, they just kept moving ahead.
Noon came, no progress. They stopped in front of a cave. It was covered by few rocks, dark inside without any sign of life. It was totally empty with only rocks inside. They were walking side by side the river as the chances to find a caravan are the most beside a river.
And there was also another reason, food. As animals often come to drink water, they could just snatch one and cook it.
And so they did, a group of deer was peacefully drinking water when Asmodeus jumped on them and grabbed a deer by neck like a wild animal, smacked it on the ground and broke it's neck.
The group of the deer came in panic and started running in random directions and that was when Persephone used her battle axe to cut another deer's head.
They had the meat of 2 deers and that was all they needed to fill their stomach.
Alice sat alone on the ground, eating the food peacefully.
Meanwhile Lilith and Persephone were talking about something and Ashura and Beelzebub were arguing on some topic and Asmodeus was laughing watching those two laugh.
Alice finished his meat, stood up, cleaned his clothes and walked to the river to drink some water.
Lilith stood from her place and walked behind Alice as a knight.
Alice looked at her from the corner of his right eye and said, "You don't have to. Go and sit back and enjoy your time. "
An hour passed, they were getting ready to continue their journey.
That was when Alice said something surprising, "Stop at your place. I could hear it, the hoof beats. A caravan is coming towards it, and I believe so it's a lonely caravan. "
