Chapter 102: The dungeon guards

1085 Words
At the entrance of the dungeon stood three guards with swords and Spears in their hands. The dungeon was a bit dark but a fire had been lit to make the place brighter. Roselle is a little bit near the guards but she's thinking of a way to get past them without being caught. "I need to get the key to the dungeon but I don't know where the hell it is." Roselle thought but then, a few guards appeared behind her. They walked past her because she was hiding in a corner that none of them could really guess she could be. The guards were having a shift of duty. The ones at the dungeon would be handing over to the ones that are just coming. Roselle watched them carefully as each started handing over to the other. "The election is about to begin, you guys should head over there." One of the guards said as he shifted with the other guard. "Here is the key, keep a watch on them well. Cause they might be called out soon to be killed as a sacrifice to the new ruler." The guard said as he handed the keys to the other guard and left. They passed by Roselle but couldn't see her because she hid well and because of the little darkness that is in the dungeon. Roselle followed after the guards that just shifted with the other guards so she could know if they are going far from the dungeon or near the dungeon. It was all for her to not get cornered by both parties when she carry out her plan. She kept on following the guards till they got to the exit of the dungeon but unexpectedly, the guards were met by the grand duke of the kingdom who requested for the prisoners to be brought out. As soon as the grand duke said this, he went back to the arena to witness the segment of the election that is already taking place. "You and Tim should inform the other guards, I need to get something." one of the guards said. He was a but taller than the other guards and with the way he looks, he seem to be more ranked than the other two guards. "Okay senior." The guards said as they turned back to inform the other guards that are at the gate of the dungeon. The guards turned around only to see Roselle standing in front of them. "Come to Mama." Roselle said as he ran past the three guards and slew them at once with her pretty kitana blades. It was her favourite sword and during the time she trained using it, she discover that it was her ideal type of weapon. It was the weapon that suits her powers. The blade is light, sharp, two on both hands and it easily blends in with dresses. Her dress was also that of a knight but it is not as masculine as that is Roselle's own. Her knight uniform is black in colour and it is tightened up so much that her shapes shows out nicely. She dressed into one of the guards uniform, the one called Tim, and she went back, towards the other guards that are at the gate of the dungeon. But before she could get there, she had contacted the four disciples that she is coming in soon by sending messages to them to get ready for action. After sending the messages, she went forward to address the guards at the gate of the dungeon. "What do you want?" One of the guards standing asked as he saw Roselle coming in a knight attire. He wasn't expecting any guard to come sooner and alone but now that it was only one guard, he was thinking that perhaps they want the prisoners to be taken out of the dungeon. "The grand duke had requested for the prisoners to be brought to the arena to witness how the election would go and also for them to be sacrificed to the new leader of the kingdom." Roselle said in a man's voice convincingly. "Sure, open the gates!" one of the guards shouted and the one with the key opened the gates of the dungeon. Actually, the total guards present are six in number, times two of the ones that where there before. The dungeon door was opened and two guards went inside to get the prisoners. But while they were doing this, a guard who seem to be more ranked than the others, turned to look at Roselle. He is having doubts if the person here is a guard. In his mind, he's thinking that Roselle wasn't acting more like a guard as she seem to be acting more like a normal person than how a guard would act. The chest of the guard seems to be out and her face resembled a bit of a female's own. If not for the helmet that Roselle had on, her secret would have been exposed and maybe she wouldn't have gotten to this time. The gate of the dungeon would not have been opened. The guard kept on having suspicion as he stared deeply at Roselle's face. As an experienced and master of mostly all guards, the man knew a lot of the faces of the guards under him. But Roselle's face seem to be new and strange to him. He didn't think he had ever seen such a face as hers before. As the prisoners were about to exit the dungeon, the man stopped them as he walked towards Roselle. "Don't let those prisoners escape, I need to check something first." The man said, making his way towards Roselle. Roselle would hate to admit it but she's getting a bit scared as her heart had started beating harder from the fear of what would happen next. Her legs were a bit shaky and nervousness had quickly came over her. She never felt like this but the glare that the man was giving her was giving her a shiver in the spine. The man was getting closer to her and when she saw that he was almost close to her, Roselle decided to act normal without growing his suspicion longer anymore. She took a silent deep breath in and finally releasing the nervousness of her body, she breathed it out with the fear she was having. The man stopped in front of her, still glancing like crazy at her.
