Chapter 6: Chapter 6.
Returning to the moment in which Aldarion saw Ronir breaking the siege, killing three guards in the process, and Gersten began to head towards the position of the bandit leader. Aldarion had only two arrows left and he had to use them well.
On the one hand, there were still ten bandits and the guards was eighteen, not counting the wounded. While, on the other hand, the remaining bandits were the strongest and did not seem very tired. The guards were not only great warriors, but they were quite tired.
In the time that Aldarion took to observe and think about this, among the bandits, one drew a bow and, aiming quickly, shot one of Bree's archers who was on the rooftops. The dejected archer fell from the roof to the street.
Aldarion did not know if the arrow had been deadly, but after the archer's fall, he would not bet that he was still alive.
Aldarion made his decision and picked up the first arrow, aiming at the bandit archer. It was a difficult shot.
Until that moment, Aldarion had only had to shoot the group of bandits and would guess easily, due to the volume of the target, but now he had to hit a single target who, moreover, was at, about, twenty meters of distance.
Aldarion took his concentration to the maximum level while aiming, he did not have many opportunities. Then, at the moment when the bandit archer was about to aim for a new target, Aldarion shot him.
The arrow flew and passed, brushing the archer's shoulder. Aldarion was glad, he could not kill him, but he did not let him shoot. He thought that, with his action, he would have saved someone.
Then, before the archer managed to recover, Aldarion caught his last arrow and he shot him again. This time, he got his goal to kill the archer.
'Well, that was my last arrow. What am I going to do now?' - Aldarion thought.
Aldarion was happy. He had managed to kill the goalkeeper and that had made things much easier, but now, he did not know how to continue helping. He could go down and, brandishing his sword, he could help the other guards, but he had never wielded a sword and he did not know how to use it.
The truth is that he was a little afraid of the idea of exposing himself.
Aldarion had no other choice, so, he began to descend from the roof on which he was. While he was doing it, he started listening to Gersten cursing Ronir. By the time he reached the street, Gersten began launching the chain of attacks on Ronir.
Aldarion began to visualize his surroundings too. He observed that, on the side of the guards and bandits the battle was stagnant, and that everything depended on the combat between Gersten and Ronir, so, he began to approach the two of them, waiting for the right moment to help Gersten.
As Aldarion approached, he saw an arrow stuck in the ground and bent down to pick it up, he ripped it off and he checked it quickly. The arrow had a slightly damaged tip, but it could be used.
While he was still looking away from the duel, Ronir disarmed Gersten and Aldarion, who was already nearby, heard the sword fall to the ground. I look up and see how Ronir mocked Gersten, and how he accepted his death.
Aldarion could not allow this. Quickly, he drew his bow, he readied the arrow and he aimed at the bandit leader.
Ronir was raising his sword and Aldarion, with nerves to the limit, returned to concentrate to the maximum and released the rope.
The arrow flew quickly and, before Ronir lowered his sword, it stuck in his thigh.
Obviously, it was not the place that Aldarion wanted, but it stopped Ronir's actions and with that, he avoided Gersten's death.
Now, Aldarion was facing another crisis. Ronir had just been interrupted and injured, therefore, his anger had reached unthinkable levels. Frowning and with red face with anger, Ronir turned around, finding the person who had shot him the arrow.
When he found it, he started to turn towards him and started screaming at him. - "You made a big mistake, boy! You're going to wish you were not born!"
Aldarion quickly looked for more arrows on the ground, but his luck seemed to be over, because he did not see any and Ronir was approaching him with a slight catch. Seeing that he could not do otherwise, Aldarion kept his bow and prepared to draw his sword.
He held his sword in the low guard position, prepared to block Ronir's attack. The bandit leader raised his sword and he dealt his blow. Aldarion managed to block him, but he was not happy at all, because, just after stopping Ronir's blow, his hands became numb and it was harder for him to grab his sword.
Ronir was not going to let him recover, so he continued some series of attacks. Aldarion, seeing that he could not block them, prepared to dodge them. First to the left, then to the right... So he continued as he retreated little by little, but one of the times he was going to dodge he stumbled, falling with his back to the ground.
At that moment, Ronir attacked from above and Aldarion had no choice but to block with his sword again. Again, he got it, but this time, due to his position, the blow was diverted by his blade and Ronir's sword hit the ground. Thanks to this, Aldarion did not have his hands numb, and he was able to react better.
Ronir, losing his patience, raised his sword again and when he launched his next attack, Aldarion rolled to the side and managed to dodge it. Without stopping, Aldarion wielded his sword and he nailed it to Ronir in the belly.
The bandit leader could not believe it, he had lost. - 'I'm going to die?!' - Thought. Ronir could not believe that, because of the decision to sack Bree, he was going to die. Without any doubt, it was the worst decision of his life.
With eyes as wide as he could, Ronir looked at Aldarion and tried to speak to him, but the moment he opened his mouth, only blood came out. Without any strength, Ronir fell on his knees to the ground and died bleeding.
