forest," said Keido quietly.

Tanuki ran after the elf but when they got to the twin fairy she was already dead.Tanuki now had to act quickly, there was no time to lose. She rounded up all the elves and fairies and told them about what the twin fairy had said. "We have to leave the Tenzu mountain as soon as possible. The best thing is to leave the elven realm and flee to King Jubei's realm. It is a dangerous journey, but it is our only way to survive." Tanuki said seriously. Everyone agreed and they immediately set off for King Jubei's kingdom without much ado. They went down a small, narrow, crumbling path down the mountain. The path was very dangerous but the risk was too great to take the safe path and run into the arms of the warriors. Tanuki was still very weak and the long way is a real challenge for her. It took the whole day until they finally came down from the mountain. It was dark and they wanted to spend the night at the edge of the forest and cross the forest tomorrow morning, but it started to rain and Tanuki thought it would be best if they would walk a bit into the forest.They keep them protected from the rain in the forest and don't keep them there as if everyone were to spend the night in front of the forest. In the middle of the night Tanuki would wake up with a scream, she got up and looked around. Her whole body was trembling with fear and her heart was beating like mad. Tanuki heard a rustling behind her, she turned around quickly and saw a figure behind a tree. The figure pulled something behind it, it looked, yes, it looked like an elf. She was shocked when the figure saw her, they looked at each other for a few seconds, then the figure took the elf in its mouth and ran away. At first she wanted to run after but she was paralyzed with fear. Tanuki went to the ground, she supported herself with her hands, tears ran down her face and dripped onto the damp leaves. "Why only? Why do we have to suffer so?" Tanuki wondered quietly. She lay back on the leaf bed, the tears were still running down her face and she slowly cried herself to sleep.In the morning she would be woken up by a fairy. "Tanuki, Tanuki wake up, something bad has happened". "What's wrong? What happened" Tanuki asked in a low, tired voice. "5 elves have disappeared and there are traces of blood everywhere, something bad must have happened tonight," the fairy explained excitedly. Tanuki, who got up during this, looked to the ground and remembered the night, the figure standing behind the tree and running away with the killing elf in its mouth. "I saw a figure tonight she had a Kill Elf with her ... I ... I wanted to help ... but ..." Tanuki had tears in her eyes again and a few escaped and ran down cheeks. The fairy comforted Tanuki "It's okay, you couldn't have done anything, you probably would have died too. Each of us would have done the same" du Fee said calmly to her. Tanuki looked up at the treetops and the sun that was just rising, she wiped the tears from her face and then said "I know that bad and terrible things happened tonight but we have to move on before more happens."So everyone went on, the sadness was still on everyone's face, but they tried to look ahead into the future in a beautiful, quiet, peaceful world as it was before the war.

Keido, Ventai and Tenchu ​​looked up at the trees and looked for a figure where they themselves did not know what it looked like. After 10 minutes they gave up their search, although they were unsure, they continued their journey. In the forest of the Elven Empire it was very suspiciously quiet and therefore they were very careful where they stepped and looked around everywhere. Ventai was a bit careless and suddenly Ventai was hanging around a tree with a noose around his neck, so quickly that nobody saw it, they only heard Ventais scream. When they saw their friend hanging in the tree and was climbing and they wanted to run to him to help him Michiko blocked their way. "Make room," Keido yelled at her and pushed her aside. At that moment Michiko turned into a forest demon and pulled Keido back.The demon smashed Keido against a tree and threw Tenchu ​​against a tree stump. Tenchu ​​couldn't get up because he was too weak, but Keido was up quickly and drew his sword. He screamed loudly and that brought the green sign back. Keido ran and jumped towards the demon, but Keido's attack fended off with ease. Ventai wriggled wildly on the tree and tried to free himself, but couldn't. Keido started a new attack on the demon, but that too would be repulsed by a slight hand movement of the demon. Suddenly a lightning flashed on the tree, on which Ventai was hanging it was a sword in which the sunlight was reflected and suddenly a lot of Ventai on the ground. He fell but didn't notice anything because he was unconscious. The rescuer of Ventai jumped from one tree to the next then he was no longer to be seen. Keido got really angry, he gathered all his strength and the green shield got stronger and stronger. Now the demon turned to the degree it was approaching Ventai, he looked at Keido with his white eyes.Keido tightened his grip on the sword, then looked up and looked into the demon's lifeless white eyes. Screaming he ran towards the demon and jumped off and shortly before the demon he disappeared and reappeared behind him then he rammed his sword into his back. Keido jumped away from the demon and got ready to attack. The demon who was on his knees got up again then he opened his mouth wide and screamed, he reached with his arms in his mouth and pulled a sword from his neck. Then he turned to Keido with a jerk around his sword firmly in his hand, the yellow slime was dripping down. Keido looked disgusted at the demon but then became serious again and concentrated on him.
<br />
Tenchu ​​recovered slowly he looked at Keido and the demon then at Ventai who was still unconscious on the floor. Slowly Tenchu ​​got up he looked up at a tree because something from there blinded him. Up there sat the boy who had warned them about the warriors in the inn, his gold-decorated scabbard of the sword had blinded him because the sun was shining on it.The boy looks intently and concentratedly on the fight between Keido and the demon, but Tenchu ​​couldn't take care of the boy now, he went slowly and inconspicuously to Ventai.
<br />
Keido and the demon ran towards each other at the same time and their swords clashed against each other, they looked into each other's eyes and then they fought so fast that Tenchu ​​could no longer see them with his weak eyes you could only hear the swords clash. Both struck with all their might and the swords clashed together and a bright flash appeared, then the two jumped away from each other. They looked at each other again, a smile spread across the demon's face and then he began to laugh out loud. All of a sudden the demon attacked again, Keido was surprised at first but then reacted quickly and blocked his attack. Keido had had enough of the fight with the demon and shouted "In the name of the holy dragon family give me the strength I need to defeat this black demon".Black clouds came up in the sky and lightning flashed down from the sky and hit Keido who held his sword in the air. The green shield turned into a bright white shield and the lightning flashed lengthways on his sword. The demon looked at him in surprise but then began to laugh out loud again. His laughter quickly fell silent because Keido had stabbed his sword in the stomach as quickly as lightning without the demon having seen the attack beforehand. The demon spat out blue blood then went to the ground and dissolved into small balls which then flew high in the sky and then disappeared. Keido stood up straight and put his sword back into its sheath. Now he was looser again and not as concentrated and tense as in the fight. He turned around and went to Tenchu ​​and Ventai, Ventai had now woken up again and is even fine. They decided to rest in the clearing, which was only a few meters away, and the next.They went there and made a campfire as a lot of tenchu ​​the boy came back. He told Ventai and Keido what he had seen. "Then it was he who followed us," said Keido. Keido went to a large tree, he jumped on a branch and held on with his hands, then swung himself up and looked around. He jumped from one tree to the other, then stopped, scorched his head and concentrated. After a few seconds he looked up at an oak tree, one end of a sheath peeked out from between the leaves, which he recognized. Keido jumped back on the ground. He walked over to the oak and drew his sword. And cut the tree with one aimed and concentrated blow. The tree buckled and much to the ground, you could only hear a scream and then a bang from the tree as it hit the ground. A few seconds later the boy jumped up from the tree but Keido caught flight in him and held him tight. Slowly they landed on the floor again, the boy wriggling and shouting "Let go of damn it" but Keido tightened his grip even more.He grabbed his arm and then pulled him over to him and then put his other hand on his shoulder. The boy looked at the hand on his shoulder and then looked into Keido's face. "Thank you. Thank you for warning us about the warriors, without you we fight death like the others." Keido said calmly to him. Keido let go of him, the boy looked at him briefly, then ran a few meters away but then stopped and looked back at Keido. "Where do you want to go now? You are still injured, go with us then you will also be safe from the warriors, because you are an easy target for them," Keido said to the boy. The boy looked at the floor, then looked at Keido again and walked a few steps towards him but then stopped again. "I ... I would like to come with you if I don't bother you." The boy stuttered shyly. It was getting late and the sun was going down, Keido went up to the boy and gave him his
