he was the strongest man of the Prouds and that their fate
was in his hands.
Shouting, he replied to his father, “Did you not
teach me that a Proud would sacrifice his life for his
dignity? How can you ask me not to fight now?”
The father leader looked at his enthusiastic son and
eventually had to approve his participation in the fight
because his son’s words embarrassed him.
“I want you to stay beside me, Jarvis. Do not fight
anyone that you feel is an experienced fighter,” said Leader
Addison. “This is your first battle and you need to be
careful, otherwise it will be your last.”
Jarvis said, “Do not worry for me, Father. Do not
worry.”
The Prouds attacked Banabs like fierce monsters
and killed many of them. Leader Addison killed many men
of Banabs, as did all the knights of the Prouds, including
Hammond, Adrian, Gilbert, and Milton. However, Jarvis
was the strongest knight of the Prouds. He grabbed his
sword with both hands and started slaying the Banabs’s
men without hesitation or fear. He looked like an
experienced fighter as if it was his thousandth battle, rather
than his first. He did not do as his father told him as he
moved far from him in battlefield, fought, and killed
apparently very strong men. The Prouds started winning the
battle. But despite their strength, Zachary was too strong
and not at all easy as he killed many of the Prouds. Jarvis
noticed that and was determined to kill him, so he headed
towards him.
His father shouted fearfully, “Do not fight him,
Jarvis. Leave him for someone else.”
