I still remember my first story.

  I was 9 years old boy just starting to help with my my father farm. I was just another farm boy who got nothing better to do but just wander around the village in my spare time.

  But at that day, it was different.

  This village well not to brag, but I think it was a pretty well off village, maybe because we have a witch doctor, so disease is not a life and death matter anymore well we were afraid of her though so we usually got our consultation and medicine through her granddaughter.

  Maybe it was also because we have the hunter who can even defeat a monster so the village is safe from harm or food shortage as the hunter can hunt it easily even in a dangerous cold winter season.

  With a good healthcare and a guardian the village managed to flourish. They can even send their son and daughter to a city.

  Some farmer son learn the way of blackmith from a city and came home to become the village blacksmith. So from then on the villager can go to the blacksmith if they want something to make and do not need to travel far to the city anymore.

  Anyway, it was a good village, for anyone but me, why? beacuse this village is boring. At least it was for me, i already explore every nook and cranny of the this village safe place the places that i haven't explored are the deep part of the nearby forest and the witch doctor house that i deemed to dangerous to explore.

  Maybe it was harsh for me to judge, but I was a child and as a child I was as honest as I could be.

  So when a traveling bard, I came to our village, I was the first one running to the venue.

  And it was there that for the first time I heard an adventure story.

  It was about a noble being punished because he was sleeping on a job. this is a story from a different land from ours and the bard even said "I want to try a different thing so i took a story from another land and change it so my honored audience can understand the story better".

  The bard bow to his audience and with a smile he started to tell the story.

  Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.

  There was once a a son of a noble knight who was being punished becuse he was sleeping on his lesson. He was punished by his father to send a letter to a temple but it was not an ordinary temple.

  To reach that place he needed to scale a mountain infested monster, travel pass a dangerous desert before finally he must going through an impassable river.

  Of course, as a son of noble knight he got an escort that his father place on a different point on his travel.

  The first escort was a rebel leader who was being sentenced to a community service for live because he was rebelling against ... well, let's just say the highest order.

  The second escort was a former noble knight who was being punished for an inappropriate use of a king of knights artifact, let's just said he was a perverted knight.

  The third escort was also a former noble knight if the perverted knight being punished because an inappropriate use of artefact than the third one was being punished becuse he outright destroyed the artefact. He always thought his mistake of that day until he is often found daydreaming let's just call him the musing knight.

  The fourth escort is not an escort but a horse used for transportation because even thought the son of noble knight is not yet a knight, he will be in the future. So for his sake, his father send him a horse to get him get used to it.

  By the way the horse was send because he bit on some noble knight hand.

  Together they journey far and wide passing through the monster infested mountain, almost give up in the dangerous desert and finally they did the impossible by traversing the impassable river and managed to deliver the letter to the temple.

  After finished with their task they were givena pardon for all their crime and they live happily ever after.

  The End.

  I was fascinated as the story progressed, i laugh, i cried and i hope for the story to never reach the ending because if the story came to an end i will be brought down from my land of beautiful fantasy back to the land of painfull reality.

  In this story my favorite character is the rebel leader.

  The rebel leader was born with a special constitution that allowed him to learn a special power and with a guidance from his beloved teacher he managed to learn that special power.

  The power is so special that the highest order hire him, but as a new hire he was given the worse job anyone could get at that place.

  So even thought it was okay at first, day after day the rebel leader rebelious nature finally bursting out of his shell.

  He fought, he stole, and he bring trouble everywhere he went. and at he peak of his life he went back to his old place and started the rebelion.

  He fight and fight and fight some more being a special person he managed to bring a trouble to the highest order, but in the end his force couldn't contend against his enemy.

  Even thought he alone managed to bring the highest trouble anyone could give. In the end he lost when he truly confront against his enemy leader.

  It was not even a fight. He lost easily.

  Even though he lost, his story was so fascinating that i can't get it out of my head.

  Can I be like him, that was i thought as the crowd started do disperse untill i was the only one left.
