Villainess Becomes The Knight Chapter 46 - The Map

The speed of the horse was too fast and I was having trouble moving. I sohow was successful in transferring my both legs to one side but now I am having a hard ti taking my left leg to the other side. I just wanted to sit backside so that it would be easy for to target wolves because if they jumped first, they would hurt hundreds and then he would not be able to run further.

I took a deep breath and my eyes turned sharp as I finally jumped a bit and shielded my leg to the other side. I have to work hard to maintain my balance.

"Finally" i took the daggers and started to aim the wolves, this was the real test of archery as the shooter and the enemy bot were moving. I aid at the one closest to and then threw the dagger straight at the space between his eyes.

"Howl" a large grieving howl reverberated in the air. And the animal fell, the other wolves a few increased the pace to catch us and the other stopped to look at their friend who died.

I had 2 more daggers only yet 3 more wolves were following . I took a sigh as I threw another dagger, this ti it hit his mouth going straight in and out of his neck from the backside.

The third was hit on the forehead again. And even he died right there but even after so much howling and killing the last wolf did not stop to follow and I did not have any other way to kill him.

Thinking that I was strong enough to fight a wolf barehanded would be foolish. I looked around to see if there was anything which could help, but there were only trees and more trees.

"Hundred, would we be able to reach the other knights? There is only one hope that they have more daggers." I said as I hugged him but the horse started shaking his head and moving his body as if he wanted to say sothing which I could not understand.

I had to hold the saddle to balance myself when I noticed there was sothing hidden in its layers but for that I had to sit properly first.

I moved further towards his neck, testing if he could handle my weight so that I did not need to sit in front, though his speed decreased nothing much happened. And I took a breath of relief.

My hands finally reached the compartnt and my eyes sparkled when I found there were hidden daggers and knives. I took 4 of them. It was 4, much more than I needed.

I took one but the wolf had already jumped to attack us, I threw it and he was hit in the stomach in midair.

He howled as he fell down and I was sure it would bring more. It would have been an hour since we were lost, and I have not even checked the path to make sure hundreds were taking us back properly.

All I could do is hope that they had realised my absence and soone would co to look for . In the next ten minutes when no more wolves followed us, hundred speed turned normal again. And even I slowly turned and sat looking at the front again.

"That side hundred, walk towards the smoke" i said as if he was my friend though i had already changed his direction through reins. There was a light smoke coming out from the direction indicating the fire.

There might be a camp or sothing that could help even by giving directions then it would be enough.

It took us barely 10 minutes to reach there, and as we moved forward the woods were getting less dense. There were 4 people sitting in a circle with fire in the middle. and there was a small temporary tent set nearby them. There was noise coming from the tent so there were more people in it too.

At the distance I could see the lake, which was the reason they would have decided to stop there. They looked towards , hearing the sound of clip-clop. They looked at surprised and stood up.

"Who are you, and why have you settled a tent here?" I asked in a strict nacing tone, taking the benefit of doubt on their faces.

"Ah, sir, we are travelers. We will stop here for the night and then move away. Is this place prohibited?" they asked and two ladies from the tent ca out.

Thank god the helt had made my voice muffled and they did not know whether i am a make of a female.

"What kind of traders are you? Show your work permit and the goods you have?" I asked again in a stricter tone and they looked at each other.

Why do I feel that I ran into another problem after coming out first.

"Sir.. officer, you are taking things very seriously. Anna, go and bring a drink for the knight. He must be tired and thirsty.

Salel, go and bring the box of goods and get it checked till then, anything else do you need?" asked the senior man who was talking and i wanted to reply 'the map' but that would make them suspicious of my identity.
