ch2 an army of golems

in a room in a massive mansion sat a girl, she was reading something when suddenly the door was thrown open by a knight.

"what happened?!" the girl realized that something is wrong by the way the knight was acting, this knight was her personal guard, and the calmest knight she knew, so something must be really wrong if the knight was rushing like this.

"an army is heading our way!" the knight answered with a hasty salute.

"an army of what? goblins? or maybe wolves?" the girl asked because these types of monster groups were not rare in this area.

"no! I mean an actual army, an army of around hundred golems!" the knight resolved the misunderstanding, since in the area they are in a large group of monsters is also called an army.

"then what is the problem?" the girl asked, since golems are not very strong and will fall apart if their creator is gone.

"the golems are being led by r-reapers!" the knight stuttered on the name of the creatures that were leading the golems.

"w-what!? how many? you said reapers, that means more than one..." the girl started panicking, even the strongest knights they had would have no time to fight back if they were attacked by a reaper, and that is if there is only a single one!

"there are five reapers, and they seem to have no hostility to each other, in fact, they seem to have some friendship between them!" the main reason reapers were not capable of destroying a country is because they would never work together, but now there were five of them in an army of golems!

"can we evacuate before they reach us?" the girl was trying to hold onto any bit of hope.

"that is impossible, that entire army is even faster than our fastest scout..." the knight wanted to say something positive, but could not think of anything that would help in this situation.

before the girl could react a commotion was heard from outside, when the girl and the knight looked outside there were knights surrounding two tall and skinny hooded figures, the only parts that were visible of their bodies were their hands and faces, their hands were sharp claws, while their faces were just skulls.

even though the hooded figures were outnumbered they did not seem to care, they kept walking forward to the door of the mansion, and even though the knights surrounding them were supposed to guard the area, they did not stop them.

not because the knights were lazy, but because the hooded figures were reapers! the reapers had already come so close to the town where the mansion was placed without anyone noticing.

a cold wind surrounded the mansion and a ghostly voice could be heard.

"we have come to ask for something" the voice said.

"will you let us in?" a second voice was heard.

these two voices had a powerful energy in them, causing the ones who heard them to feel fear, even the bravest knight was shivering.

when the girl looked at the knight beside her she saw that the knight had already jumped out of the window, and was walking to the reapers.
