Our Journey 2 Figh

"We have a special menu, roast duck, but there's an extra charge if you order it," the waiter asked in a friendly voice. I shook my head. I have to be careful with money.

"I order the regular menu," I replied and he nodded. The waiter left. Not long after another waiter brought a tray. On the tray there is simple food available. Rice, soup and fish. That's enough for me. I eat the food with pa.s.sion.

After eating, I returned to my room. I do not want to join other guests here. I fear if they can guess who I am if we speak. My voice is a little shrill. They can guess I'm a woman if they hear my voice. So far I tried to speak in a low voice so they were not suspicious.

In my room, I sharpen my sword. This sword is a gift from my martial arts teacher. My teacher is an ascetic. She raised me as his disciple because my father asked her. For five years I lived with her and learned the science of her sword. I left the martial arts college after my brother died.

Until now, I do not understand why my famous teacher in the martial world accepted me. I am the daughter of a merchant. In this Kingdom system, traders are perceived as parasites. Considered less than educated people and farmers. Although rich, still underestimated. However, my teacher still accepts me.

Satisfied with sharpening the sword, I swung my sword. Practice what I learned from my teacher. Although my room is narrow, I can do some movements. Sword swung's sounds beautiful to me.

Satisfied to practice, I put my sword into a sword sheath. I opened my bedroom window and let the light into my living room. A gentle breeze enters the room through the window. Make my room cool.

My comfort was suddenly disturbed. A woman's screams are heard. Quickly I took my sword on the table. I ran out of the room, toward the sound of screams coming.

I reached the dining room. I see the dining room messed up. Some chairs have been turned upside down. Then there are two groups fighting each other. I do not understand this situation. I do not know why they were fighting. I also do not know which side to defend.

Suddenly an unsheathed sword pointed at me. Reflexively, I deflected it with my sword. The attack continued. I fight for my life.

"Who are you? Why attack me?" the man who drew his sword at me screamed.

"I have not intention to attack you? I do not know who are you? Did not you attack me first?" I asked back him as he continued to deflect his sword attack.

"You lie!" he said and continued to attack me. Since he does not believe me, I have no other choice. I have to keep fighting. Our fight was pretty fierce. I jumped to the table and he followed me.

To make him coulnd't chase me, I jumped from table to chair and from chair to table. The man did not give up. He followed my steps. He even chased me when I came out of the dining room. Where we were fighting moved to the inn's yard. Just the two of us fighting there.

"d.a.m.n, he continues to think of me as his enemy," I say in my heart. I have to fight it. I waited for him to be careless. When he was off guard, I kicked his leg. Make him fall and kiss the ground. Immediately I pulled the sword from his hand and threw it away. Immediately, I locked his hands behind his back. My knee pressed against his back so he could not move anymore.

"I told you I did not know who are you, why did you accuse me to killing you?" I shouted at him.

"You wear the same clothes as those who attack me," he replied in a cold voice. I saw my dark brown outfit. Some people who are fighting wearing clothes of the same color.

"Let me go!" said the man who was still falling.

"Promise do not attack me again?" I asked.

"I promise," he said and I opened his hands. He stood up and looked at me irritably. He cleaned his white clothes from the dust.

"I went to the capital to attend a royal military academy," I said earnestly.

"Are you really not from that brown clothing group? You do not recognize me?" he asked again. I nod my head. However, his face showed disbelief.

"I have defeated you, but I did not kill you, is not that enough to prove that I have no intention to killing you?" I asked irritably. He sighed. Walking to where I threw his sword. He took his blade sword
