14 Chapter 14. Sky Army
"Well, don't ask anymore. It won't do any good because soon you'll be dead," said the guard.
Hearing that, Ara snorted disapprovingly. She chose to remain silent and did not ask again. Tried looking for the body owner's memories about other kingdoms but to no avail. What was in her memory revolved only around the Qin kingdom.
It seems that since childhood, she has never left this kingdom.
Soon they will arrive.
Ara was still busy watching everything in her path, suddenly an unexpected sight entered her vision.
Right up there, in the air. Three men each with wings on their bodies.
"Sky army?" Ara muttered without realizing it. But a few seconds later she realized what she said. In the memories of the previous body owner, she had heard stories about the sky army.
The Sky army is one of the strongest armies that the Qin Empire has. The sky troops are from the Alaskan Clan. A Clan that has differences from humans in general, especially in the physical aspect. They have a pair of wings on their backs.
Alaska clan is not bound by any rules, they only submit to the King who leads, nothing else.
According to people's beliefs, thousands of years ago there was a terrible phenomenon in the sky when lightning filled the sky all the time, big storms and other natural disasters occurred everywhere and it succeeded in destroying human life on earth. It happened for almost a year. Many victims fell.
People believe that there is a great war between the gods in the sky. At that time, everyone thought that life on earth would end.
Until a year passed, It finally ended. And from then on, winged people started popping up out of nowhere. They all then form a group and live side by side with the community.
It was a story that still lingered in the memories of the previous owner of the body. As to how the Alaska Clan formed into the Qin Empire's sky army, she didn't know anything about it.
"Did something happen at the royal's border?" muttered the Guard who were with Ara.
Immediately the girl turned, "What do you mean?" she asked.
"Over the past few months, this is the first time I have seen the sky army return to the kingdom. So far they have only been at the border camp, maintaining border security.
They were not alone, some ground soldiers were also assigned to help them there.
"Is that true?" mumbled Ara.
"The appearance of the sky army signifies that something must have happened, Miss. They can't return to the palace without any reason," replied the guard.
Ara who heard that just nodded in understanding.
Right after the guard finished his sentence, the crown prince who was at the forefront suddenly spurred his horse at high speed. The others to do the same.
And this further strengthened their belief that something big might be happening at the border.
The palace gates opened wide, entering the palace, Ara and the slaves with her parted with the entourage of the crown prince.
The nobles followed the crown prince, while Ara and the other slaves, the guards took them somewhere.
"Where are you taking me?" Ara asked the guard who was with her.
"Shut up and stop asking me, Miss. We're in the royal palace, I don't want to be accused of anything if I continue to talk to slaves like you. So shut up and don't be rebellious," replied the guard.
Ara snorted, not liking the man's response. Simultaneously, several groups of royal soldiers ran and gathered right in front of the Hall, as if they were waiting for orders.
The bodyguard carrying Ara continued to move as if not bothered by the presence of the soldiers. Continued to pull the horse's reins until it stopped right at a brown building, after getting off the horse, immediately several people in different uniforms greeted their arrival.
"Put these slaves into prison," said the guard who was with Ara.
"OK."
"Wait!" Ara protested when the woman who was with her was also dragged away by several people.
"Hey, wait a minute. Wasn't the agreement not like this?" Ara struggled, the woman tried to escape from the two men holding each of her arms.
"Hey, let them go, just arrest me," she added.
"Shut up and just do it. Don't talk too much if you still want your life to last longer," said the guard who was with Ara earlier. After saying that, he turned and left from there.
"Take care of them, don't let them escape. Wait for the decision from Crown prince," he said again and then left with the others.
Cries were heard from the female slave who was with Ara, they were all then led into and through the gate.
Such a vast courtyard was the first sight that greeted Ara. Walked a few minutes and then turned down the corridor, stopping right in front of a black door.
On the inside is very dark. Only the torches neatly lined up on the walls managed to illuminate the room.
There was silence, only the sound of their footsteps echoing each other. The more they stepped in, the stronger the smell of blood became. Now and then the sound of chains rattling can be heard.
Turning at the corridor, iron prisons lined the left and right sides of the room. The women who were with Ara were sobbing and shaking, they looked very frightened. Ara took a deep breath, she became curious as to what would happen next.
Blood and iron prisons were very common for Ara. Remembering in her previous life, that woman was the former commander of the Alpha team who led the Nine special soldiers in her country.
