--------------------------------

There were seven kingdoms around the world.
The city of light, Tara. The city of sea, Veron. The city of snow, Edur. The city of sand, Hila. The city of meadow, Kamal. The city of lava, Devoss. And finally, the city of mist, Nuadha.

Each kingdom had their own beauty. Tara with the magnificent diamond and the bright sun. Veron with their blue ocean and hundreds pearls. Hila with the sea of sand and their famous snake venom. Kamal with their savanna and colorful flowers. Edur with their white land and colorful sky. Devoss with the active volcano and rubies and Nuadha with their thick fog and green forest around the castle.

All of that place, Sekt had seen them with his own eyes.
Originally from Kamal, Sekt never wanted to say he was belonged to one place.
Since he was a kid, looking around the world was what he wanted and he truly did it.
In twenty two years old of his life, Sekt already knew how to sleep in the middle of the desert or how to use everything he had to protect himself from the cruel snowstorm.
He knew the real meaning of 'life is an adventure' was.
From the world, Sekt learned a lot. Especially how to protect himself.
It's not everyday his adventure was filled with joy. Sometimes he had to deal with people who liked to take care of someone else business.

His Katana was his favorite thing in the world. If someone touched it without his permission, Sekt would make the person felt sorry for the rest of his life.

Creepy, yes but not heartless.

To pay his own journey, Sekt sometimes sold some merchants. If he could, he would help the people in the city he visited. They paid him good.
That manner made Sekt had some acquaintances almost in every city. He just never thought he should visited them every time he passed the city.

The world gave Sekt everything. Including reflect for something unpredictable.

Like this one.

When he was showing his new friend, Keg, about how to hold a Katana. Sekt could feel something was going to attack him.
His reflect took over and Sekt lifted up his Katana before the attack hit him.
His attacker was fast enough.
Sekt felt the tip of the person's foot on his elbow.

Normal people would definitely surprised about that but not Sekt.
Without hesitation, he gripped his Katana harder and got ready to strike back.

A glimpse of ginger and the flip of the hair alerted Sekt that his attacker was a female.
But no matter who she was, she attacked him first, messed with his katana and Sekt had no doubt to give her a payback.

Gemma saw Sekt was preparing himself to move so she used her free time to turned a bit toward Kegan who stood behind her and pushed him away, far from the fight, ignoring what he tried to say.
She turned back at the perfect timing when Sekt swung his katana, not a deadly one but she would be hurt if he did it.
Luckily, Gemma had taken a piece of metal bad she found on the way and used it to shield her body.
She saved from the curved sword.

Groaning a bit, Gemma pushed back, made Sekt moved one step backward but quickly stepped forward again.
She ducked her head when the Katana swung horizontally, targeting her head.
The combat made Gemma realized she couldn't win against this man but she refused to give up yet.
Her small figure allowed her to move fast. Still bowing low on the ground, Gemma moved her leg and kicked the man's ankle.

A groan and loud thump on the ground indicated that the purple man was falling.

One point for Gemma.
