The Beginning Of Freedom

Ch2 -Destiny

To begin with... I'm not really good at English.. I hope I managed to get my point across

...................................................................

The sun was shining and made the cave walls a little brighter than last night

The fire that was lit to heat the cave was extinguished and only emitted a little heat

Arthur slowly opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling of the cave, he looked to the side and saw a girl with silver hair next to him, a smile appeared on his face.

He reviewed the events of last night with himself and made sure that none of them were asleep... Tess's return and Cecilia's departure... which even he felt strange... at least he didn't want his childhood friend and his previous life to leave him like that. For the second time... he put his hand on tess face and put a part of her hair behind her ear

"Tess, it's morning... wake up"

Arthur didn't get an answer from Tess, he knew she needed to rest, so he tried to get up slowly and get ready to go to Dicathen.

"good morning princess"

Arthur looked at the wolf sitting in the corner of the cave

"Don't look at me like that."

"I'm just looking at a masochistic general who loves a girl , what's the problem?"

"Just shut up.. you have to go-" Before Arthur finished speaking, he felt someone grab his hand

"Art?..."

" oh Good morning Tess, did I wake you up?" Arthur smiled.

"No..." Tess looked around

"What's the problem, Tess?"

"Nothing, we just want to go back, right?"

Arthur sat next to Tess and took her face in his hands, " right.. is something bothering you?"

Arthur brushed Tess's hair aside and waited for Tess' answer, "Just... aren't we in Alacrya? How are we going to get back?" A faint smile appeared on Arthur's face, he thought that Tess knew about his power, but it didn't seem like that, "Well, a simple way... Regis, is everything ready?"

"If you mean to extinguish this fire completely in order not to harm the environment, I must say, rest assured, I extinguished it"

Regis' words made Tess laugh, "Funny..." Arthur looked at Tess and then at Regis who was smiling triumphantly.

"You don't know how ridiculous it can be!"

""Princess masochism, jealous ?"

"Shut up Regis"

"Oh, in front of the princess, are you telling me to shut up , how dare you?"

"you know what it is? It's time to you go back inside the core!"

"Hey, this scoundrel-..." He disappeared before he finished speaking

"What happened..." Tess looked at Arthur questioningly and waited for an answer

"Nothing, I just sent him to have breakfast! We want to leave"

Tess shook her head and tried to stand on her feet, but her legs still didn't have the strength and endurance, and before she fell to the ground again, Arthur caught her, "Excuse me... I know I'm so useless that I can't stand on my feet.."

"Don't say like that, I understand that after a long time you are back in your body, it is hard to move."

"So how are we going to get back..." Arthur smiled and hugged Tess in one movement
