Reginold remembered the commitment which he made to himself before starting his training that he was going to become a great mercenary to help weak and needy peoples and his dream was fading in front of his eye he looked at his master who was bravely fighting ten bandits on his own.He could not forgive himself if he lost his master.Somehow he gathered his courage and dashed toward his master with only one thought in his mind to help his master.
The battle was taking place at a open ground in the outskirts of the village Bruce was surrounded by 10 bandits with his short sword and shield he was hardly able to fight them in the midst of fighting he saw two katanas penetrating through the backs of two bandits and he knew that it was Reginold. Reginold have stealthily killed two bandits seeing this the rest of the bandits retreated backwards.Bruce asked,"Reginold despite I said no orders why are you here?""Master you think that i can abandon a man who trained me for four years like his own son? and i need to fight this battle because you only said one who can't fight risky battles could not ever become a great mercenary",said Reginold. Bruce can now clearly see a new Reginold who have only one motive in his mind to fight this battle for helping the villagers and his master his face was full of confidence without any fear of the upcoming battle.Bruce said,"ok Reginold you can participate in battle but act cautiously-.Bruce stopped speaking suddenly because they saw bandits were engulfed by a spiky aura they noticed that they were using mire.
• What is mire:-mire is a inferior version of ire like ire when magicals are released through mire crystals mire is released.almost all people in the world knows about mire

of mires used during battles there are three types of battle more defense mire,attack mire and speed mire.
• Defense mire-every cubic type of crystal releases defense mire.when defense mire is released a shield of magicals is conjured around any side of the user.
• Attack mire-Evey triclinic crystal releases attack mire.In attack mire magicals get engulfed around arms or any object(like any weapon)of the user.This spiky layer of magicals increase the impact of the attack
• Speed mire.Every tetragonal crystal releases speed mire.In speed mire a somewhat dense layer of magicals get engulfed around full body length of the mire user and long strips of magicals appear around speed up parts of the body. This mire increases his/her movement speed and if this mire is released around a weapon its attacking speed or throwing speed increases but its impact become much less than usual.

Reginold asked,"master why didn't we brought mire crystals with us for this fight?"I went to the local merchant to buy some yesterday but he told me that a bunch of bandits forcibly took it from him I bet those were the Alavour bandits which we are facing now,we have to fight them without mire."
Saying this Bruce and Reginold took their fighting stance then bandits began to surround them.
This was the scene of the battlefield.
Bruce was surrounded by four bandits one in his front weilding a shortsword one in his back weilding a spiked mace and those on his left and right side were weilding axes.
Bruce holding a shortsword and a sheild was looking meticulously across them trying to devise the best tactic to beat them.All the four bandits surrounding Bruce were using attack mire which increases the attack of the weapon significantly.Bruce noticed that the bandit in his front was aiming for a stab in his stomach one in front was aiming to bash his head by the mace and the two axe weilders in his sides were were aiming for his head.Bruce has devised the tactic in his mind and was now going to use it.The two bandits who were attacking his head Bruce stopped the hit of the bandit in his right by his sheild and the one on the left by using flat side of his sword
because he cant use the edge of his blade to fight with a weapon engulfed by attack mire because if this weapons edge hits the weapons edge without mire it can break certainly.
Stopping both of their attacks Bruce make a side jump to his left pushing the bandit on his left left further as their blades were still connected.The bandit on his right saw this chance and he dashed towards Bruce and aimed for a slash on his belly but again Bruce stopped his attack with the sheild.the bandits aiming for a stab and bash in the head seeing Bruce has dissapeared from there tried to stop thier attack but it was worthless and their weapons collided with each other the collision made loud 'clank' sound.The bandit whose attack Bruce stopped with his sheild was surprised by the attack he took a quick quick glance at the back,Bruce knew that this would happen next at the exact movement when the bandit looked backwards he bashed his head with shield holding his head with hands the bandit moved backwards.Bruce finally disconnected his blase from the axe bandit on his front and aimed for slashing his belly the bandit stopped his attack by conjuring a sheild between them by using defense mire.The sheild conjured by defense mire is semi-permeable it means any part of the users body or even his whole body to pass from it but it doesn't allow other things like body of a person or any weapon not holded by the user to pass through it.It means that even though the user is protected by sheild he can still attack the enemy but this attack will be somewhat weaker and slower than the usual.
Bruce pulled of the sword as it was unable to pass through the sheild.The desperate bandit attacks through the sheild being enough carefull to not take out his hand from the sheild as there was a risk to lose fists.Bruce dodged his clusmy hit and with great force striked the sword on his axe's shaft breaking it in the process.The disarmed bandit continued to leave under the protection of sheild.The bandit whose head was bashed by Bruce recovering from his pain angrily striked his axe towards Bruce's head again Bruce blocked the hit by the sheild,they struggled there for a while frustated by the sheild the bandit used speed mire.in speed mire magicals push that part of the body which is to be speed up by the user so this mire can also be used to push heavy things because power\=force*speed.The bandit pushed the axe hard on Bruce's sheild hoping that the axe's blade penetrating the sheild will smash Bruce's head.when the sheild was about to be broken Bruce released the sheild and quickly moved to its side,due to the speed the bandit was unable to stop himself and he felled on ground making a loud 'thud' sound.Bruce caught him off guard and using this opportunity he swiftly sliced his neck.Moving to the next enemy he saw that the bandit with mace was coming running towards him for attacking him.Bruce dashed towards him too and when he reached near him he whispered,"Not me but your friend is going to kill you."The bandit surprised and unable and to decipher what Bruce said continued to swing his mace in the direction of Bruce's head at the exact movement of strike Bruce ducked and a axe came flying making a 'whoosh' sound from nowhere and chopped the bandits head and his headless body felled on ground.Bruce looked backwards and he saw the axe was thrown by the same bandit who was disarmed by Bruce.Bruce asked, "feeling glad by killing your friend,huh?"The bandit was unable to utter a single word as he was shocked by killing his friend.Bruce took a wide step towards the disarmed bandit and swinged his sword in a long semicircular arc slicing the bandits neck.This was the strategy that Bruce devised before starting fighting.he know from the expressions and body language that the bandit on his left was overly cautious, the bandit on his right was a slave of rage.The bandit on his back belived in killing his opponent with only one blow and the bandit on his front was a reckless one.His strategy was he know the bandits on his back and front were farther than those were on his sides so he stopped the attack of the side bandits and moved away from them.as the bandit was overly cautious instead of using speed or attak mire he used defense mire and this gave Bruce chance to provoke the rage of other bandit by bashing his head the disarmed bandit was waiting for a chance to get a weapon to attack Bruce and what he got was a throwable hand axe.so without entering in Bruce's wepon range he thrown it for chopping Bruce's neck but Bruce knew it from the first thats why he was able to evade it.
Bruce moved on to next enemy he saw that the bandit with sheild who was reckless at first have now switched to defensive stance.Bruce was about to attack him when Hannibal made some chuckling noise and said,"Whoa Bruce,you have'nt change a bit since last five years and your fighting style is same too."Bruce shocked by hearing these words he said in a surprised tone,"wait a minute,how did you know my name and my fighting style?Don't tell me you are..you are..
