Chapter 7 by jaed jaed

How do they do that ?

They escape by setting the forest on fire, burning part of their clothes in the process.

"Okay, how are we going to do this ?", Asked Catherine as she continued parrying off attacks from the beasts.

"Just leave to me, and watch", Shamir simply replied, upon which, she went to work.

Grabbing a lantern from Rhea's convoy, Shamir smashed it into the floor, breaking the glass, and setting the flame inside free, upon which, she then threw it deep into the forest by it's handle, setting some poor tree into a fire, than in just a few minutes later, became a forest fire.

Blinded and scared by the fire surrounding them, the demonic beasts soon enough abbandoned their attack ito the convoy and began to run off from the fire as fast as they could, but as the fire grew stronger and stronger, many of them ended up trapped and burning alive in their own forest.

"Alright, that should be enough, we're free now", said Shamir, "Yes, but that's only if the fire doesn't end up killing us", Catherine replied annoyed, as she pointed out that Shamir's little move had also burned her own archery gloves.

"Right..., Either way, problem resolved, now let's get go out of here", replied Shamir noticing her own gloveless hands, upon which, she ran off to the exit of the forest as fast as she could, leaving Catherine to deal with the convoy, and also probably getting her own boots burned.

"'sigh', ok then, you heard her, let's go", Catherine said to her fellow knights, upon which, much like Shamir, began to exit the forest as fast they could.

"hey, make sure Rhea's alright", Said Gilbert to Catherine._ "Understood", _she replied, intentionally leaving herself at the end of the convoy, to make sure that everyone got off before her, especially Rhea.

And so, with that said, following the little incident that they had with the demonic beasts, everyone managed to escape from the forest successfully with their lives, to live another day, and continue on with the journey.

"We did it my archbishop!", said a younger knight to Rhea as they exited the forest. "Yes, we did, but i fear for Catherine's live, where's she ?", Rhea replied.

"Don't worry, i just got a little lost", said Catherine as she exited the forest to rejoin the convoy, but what had may been a moment of joy to everyone, quickly turned awkward, as everyone stared at Catherine's appareance.

"Ehh, is there something wrong with me ?", she said, for unbeknownst to her, her own clothes were even more of a mess than earlier, for the fires in the forest had burned it severely as she escaped. The only question now was...

How much does she have left ?
