Chapter 11: She is wearing nothing
"Where is this?" Senja tried to inquiry the soldiers who were escorting her, but unfortunately nobody gave her an answer. She gave up after several attempts.
A soldier who gave a previous order walked right in front of her so she was able to make a short evaluation about him. It seemed like he was the chief in charged for all of young pall here. He donned more complicated armor compared to the others.
The better the armor, the higher the rank. At least she knew a bit about this detail because she really enjoy to watching a movie with ancient time as a time background.
After five minutes walked in silence they reached a big blue tent. The chief stopped in the front door and gestured his entourage to stayed, while he was going inside the tent.
It didn't take a long time before he came back and signaled to his comrade to brought Senja inside.
One soldier pushed her shoulder to make her moved forward. She wanted to complained, but lost her courage when she saw his sword.
Geez… it's really not necessary to draw your sword, right?
Inside the tent there were two people standing, facing a big round table like they were in an urgent meeting.
In one glance, she knew which one was Captain Hua. He was the one who wearing black shiny armor. The most complicated armor compared to the other one. So, she guest he was the highest rank in this army.
He looked so muscular in his armor, maybe he was around 30 years old? It's an early age to be a Captain, right? Even though she wasn't sure about the rank of army.
His body built like a decent army. Tall and sturdy, even with Senja height, she just reached his shoulder.
"Captain Hua. We found her inside the barrel at the armory."
Captain Hua frowned and stepped forward to examine Senja before posted a question.
"Who are you?" He sized her up and stared at her sternly "What happen with her hair?"
The chief shook his head, "We don't know. Her hair is already like that when we found her. And she is wearing nothing" There was a trace of embarrassment when he said the last part.
"I wear a dress!" Senja refuted. Where would she put her face? How could he say that she wasn't wearing anything?
"Who are you?" Captain Hua repeated his question. His eyes didn't leave her hair because the color was so bright and eyes catching.
"Senja."
"And you are?"
"…" What should I said? Time traveler?
"Answer me!" He raised his tone with authority.
Right in that time someone was kicked her by her knee, force her to kneel.
Nobody had ever disrespect Senja before so she glared furiously to the soldier behind her.
"Fuck you! You want to die?!!" She shouted loudly without thinking the consequences.
Captain Hua drew his sword so quick that made Senja couldn't dodge it and before she realized what have happened, the tip of his sword had already pricked her neck. Blood trickled down from that small cut.
Senja shut her mouth instantly. The murderous aura from him invaded her consciousness made her shuddered involuntary. She wanted to brush aside the sword and complained because it hurt her, but couldn't find her courage.
"Tell me who you are or else I don't mind to behead you right now." He emphasized every word and gave off a dangerous vibe.
