Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 11: Duncan's Regret (1)

I was very foolish ...

Why didn't I even think that Donovan will be safe just in Irina's hand, I'm so stupid...

I need to get to her now ...

" The bunker is on the right, Duncan ... " Hector says.

" This way ... "

As we both run to the bunker, we see it in chaos as we see some corpses of the Knight Guards there, splattering around as they were sawed by something.

We then leave them as I called for Irina and Donovan, to my surprise, I and Hector then heard some voice as we go to its source where we then found Donovan and Irina with the others are still safe as they were having a rest in that place and taking a meal that was also stored in that place.

" Gaaa....!!!!! " Donovan says as he looked at me.

" Oh my ... Donovan .... " I come to him as I hugged him and Irina, leaving Hector behind as he looks at the three of us.

As we hugged, I then tell them that we will both guard them in this bunker as I called some of the available numbers on my phone including this villa's Knight Guard captain.

" Hello ... Captain ... " I called the Captain as I want an update on the villa's outside since I remember leaving Ardun there.

As I call him, I then ask the things I want to ask the captain, since I know that Ardun may try to kill us again as the captain then tells me that, he and the others had taken all of the Warlord Guild as the captain then tells that they had captured Ardun since he was badly injured.

" The one that you seek is now tide in front of me, master Duncan ... "

" He seems to be such a crybaby, isn't he? " the captain says as he tells that Ardun is crying in front of him as he then vid calls me to show the very thing that happened.

Seeing that, I then see the Ardun in that place as I realized something ...

" Wait a minute ... why Ardun's tattoo is on the left ....? " I said to the captain as I remembered that Ardun had a lion tattoo on his right hand and then I try to remember again in our last encounter where I remember that the tattoo is on the left which means.

" Knight-Captain Vincent can you please spray some water on that Ardun over there ...? " I ordered the captain Hector then asks me what is wrong since he sees my worried face Captain Vincent then splash some bucket of water on Ardun's face as the face and his whole body starts to change.

" No .... !!!! " I said to myself as I see that the 'Ardun' that I fought earlier is actually Ares, one of the Black Guild members that have the ability to shapeshift into any warrior as he can copy any warriors' abilities although his version is definitely not as strong as the original ones.

" Ares ....!!!! " I said to myself as I then ask to my mind about the whereabouts of the 'real' Ardun.

While I was shocked, Hector then demands the captain to interrogate Ares about Ardun's whereabouts the captain does so by punching Ares in the face which makes Irina have to take action to cover Donovan's eyes and ears since the pain sound can be heard by him because the phone is on speaker.

" Where is he!!!!??? " Vincent asks Ares which Ares only replies with a simple laugh as he tells Vincent that.

" Hey ... Knight-Captain ... " Ares says to Vincent.

" You're already too late ... "

" Our .... Guildmaster ... is already in ... " Ares says as in the bunker I then hear some voices from outside then the aisle roof in front of us was destroyed as the real Ardun comes to our place in his prime, without receiving any damage at all.

As we see that, we all there prepare ourselves while I still holding my phone as I hear that Vincent is coming here with the other knights.

" Surrender Ardun ... " I tell him while pointing my blade at him. Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m nov𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)m

" You are outnumbered ....!!! " I threaten him so he won't do anything crazy since it's Ardun.

Hearing that, Ardun then tells that this is a nice bunker which he then asks if this bunker can at least defend us against a bomb attack even though he doubts that there's a bomb that will be more powerful than his fire which he then tests it as he presses the button.

" Let's find it out, shall we? " Ardun says as he presses the button which made Ares and some still living Warlord Guild members ... explode.

Boom ....

As the explosion happens, I, Ardun, and the others are safe inside the BUnker while Vincent and the others had to die in the explosion.

" I see... (laughs), guess this bunker is that convenient than... " Ardun says that he had already killed all of his men and the Knight Guards with that explosion as he tells that with that.

" No one will disturb us ..., right Duncan ...? " Ardun says to me while he laughs maniacally in front of us.

" You fiend man !!!! " Hector points his blade at Ardun.

" How could you sacrifice your loyal men!!!? " Hector asks Ardun, and Ardun replies that his men and the knights' soul will go to paradise as they all die in battle Ardun then says that the Warblade guild believes that once they die, their souls will go to Valhalla for their bravery in battle.

Seeing that, I was shocked as I really didn't know how to deal with his craziness he tells that he had already surrounded this very villa with his flames and asked me to give him the baby which I then refuse.

" Ardun ... "

" The boy will go nowhere .... "

" For the boy is now my son ... " I tell Ardun. just like share which sadly, makes her angry even more as he then goes full strength this time.

" This is the 78% of my full power since I give some of it to Ares earlier ... " Ardun says as he then loos at Donovan as he says.

" Well ...well so you're the rumored baby huh .... "

" Donovan 'Betzalel' Richter Grimshaw ."

As I hear that, I prepare myself to shut Ardun up.

" Ardun ... " I say to myself as I remember the thing that happened between us ages ago.
