As Aimée started to walk, she felt that the knight wasn't following her. Looking at him, she wondered what was happening.
What happened after caught her by surprise.
"I can tell you his story in a single breath" he said with an angry expression.
"He was born, he squired and died!" he continued, stepping forward and raising his voice with each word and stopping very closely to her.
After the initial shock passed, Aimée's eyes were bristling with anger as she stood still staring at the knight. He was uncomfortably close to her, but she refused to step back.
"Don't give me or Henri your pity" he said, pushing her away with his shoulder as he walked away.
Aimée took a few moments to understand what just happened. She was worried about him and that how he repays her kindness? How dare he talk like that with her?! Who he thought he was? Rude... brutish idiot! She certainly wouldn't accept that.
Her blood started boiling as she walked heavily on his direction with long, angry and loud steps, carrying her ringed blade in one of her arms. Her face was red with anger, in contrast with her white skin.
"And Charles, ready the horses... Just in case. You, me and Johannes.""Never touch a rose without its consent, it doesn't matter how beautiful it may be.""Don't EVER touch me again without my consent. Otherwise, I'll gladly make you understand why the Belleroses have this saying."she said in an angry tone, standing uncomfortably close, staring at him. Even with her apparently fragile appearance, her fury was undeniable.
"It wasn't pity, I was genuinely concerned, seeing how you looked a bit shaken by your friend's demise, and that's how you repay my kindness?! By acting like an idiot?""You dress like a knight, but I cant tell the difference between you and those orcs..." she said, turning her back to the man and walking away.
"Barbaric, rude beasts without a clue on what education and courtesy are.""Hmpf!" she said,
turning her head away, looking down on him and walking away with one hand on her waist and the other one holding the ringed blade, now wrapped with the red silk again, hiding its metallic glint.
Aimée was still extremely angry as she sat down on a rock, away from the duel. Closing her eyes, breathing in and out in a calm manner, she took several minutes to calm herself down. Luckily enough, she opened her eyes just in time to see Silas beheading the orc.
“
Go deliver this to your little fort. Tell your Big Boss he will be next and will fall to the Empire!”
"It turned out that we didn't need any plan." she said to herself, smiling as she heard Silas' speech and saw the orcs running away.
“
Victory is ours! Victory is yours! Today you proved just how strong mankind can be! Be proud of yourselves that you survived today and tonight we shall feast to morn our dead and celebrate our victory!”
Walking closer to him, she offered him a sincere smile.
"Come on, i'll help you to get back to the camp. Lets take care of those wounds, you'll want to be in perfect shape to enjoy tonight's big party to celebrate your victory." she said, getting the rest of his weapons and giving them to him.
"You were lucky to get out alive, you know?" she said.
"The odds weren't exactly at your favor, and it cannot be called a "fair" fight..." she said, pointing to the dagger wound.
"But you made it in the end.""I'll open an exception, just for today." she said, winking to him as she put his arm over her shoulder, helping him to walk.
"At least now you can boast all you want on having killed an Orc commander in a duel." she said, laughing.
"And not only having a cute girl to cheer for you, but having her this close to you at the end too!" she said, laughing playfully.
"Hey boys! You all better to rest a lot and take care of your wound, because we are celebrating our victory tonight, and I expect to dance a lot, hear a lot of stories and might even pick some partners to dance with me!" she yelled, with a confident smile.
"Hey, Stefano, I wonder if the beret you wear is only for show or you can play some music to us tonight?" she called him, with a bright and happy expression.
