Rawna’s knights shouted as they were certain the
Teacher was close to losing.
The sultan laughed. His huge army started to cheer
for him. The Teacher was not affected by the wound and
kept holding his sword with his right hand.
The Teacher knew that the sultan was so arrogant
and he would be moving a lot and trying to finish him as
soon as possible, so he planned to move very little and
conserve as much energy as he could while the sultan
would lose his energy fast.
The sun was rising in the sky, and its rays were
burning down upon both armies.
The Teacher’s plan succeeded as with the burning
sun in that desert, sweat became running like rivers from
the body of the sultan, who became very tired. That
appeared clearly when his movements became slower, and
his attacks became of less power.
When the wounded Andrew saw that, he started
attacking the sultan with all of his power. He kept attacking
the tired sultan, who was only blocking the hits of the
Teacher.
Suddenly, to the amazement of both armies and to
the amazement of history, the Teacher managed to cut the
sultan’s belly.
Silence prevailed in that desert as fighters of both
armies could not believe what happened.
The sultan, who was, a little time back, above
everybody while sitting on his raised red throne, fell down
on his knees.
