4 Chapter 3: Fredrick, the old trickster

After a few days of training, Emyrs finally got used to his strength and speed. Now he is capable of controlling it like drinking water. He then sets off his journey once again.

This time he changed his journey to a medium sized town near the hero's tower. He spent his lime leisurely walking and resting when he needs. 3 days gone by in a blink of an eye, of course he still had a pretty long way to go before reaching the town but at this day, an old man with a small carriage stopped beside him.

This wasn't his first time meeting a stranger, after all people in this world that he had met are all relatively kind; thus, they are easy to get along with and have some chats, leaning a few things here and there. However, this old man clearly caught his attention.

Emyrs: A Trickster? Interesting... (shook his head) It has nothing to do with me as long as he doesn't annoy me.

Fredrick(the old man):Hey there, I see that you are going to the same direction as where I'm heading. Do you want a ride? It free you know?(shakes his hand suspiciously) Ah, don't get the wrong idea. I'm just trying to get someone to talk with you know? It's just boring to travel alone all the time at this old age, having someone to talk too while doing a kind deed makes me happy. Hehe...

Emyrs:(lets out a wide big smile) Sure why not, I could use some company.

Fredrick:(with a sudden chill gone down his back, steps a foot backwards, before shaking his head) Come on in and let's have a nice chat!

Emyrs and Fredrick went and sat on the driver seat carriage side by side.

Fredrick:(acting like an old friend) So, where ya heading at? It should be the medium sized town, called "Ares" right?

Emyrs:(nodded) Yeah.

Fredrick: Alright, off to "Ares" then! By the way, I haven't heard your name yet. I'm Fredrick.

Emyrs: It's Emyrs.

Fredrick: Oh, Emyrs, what a nice name! You're not an adventure, are you? Ever planning on joining the adventure's guild? I heard most youngsters like you and even old men like me joins the guild to make a quick buck by subduing some monsters. Well, it's too bad my old bone won't be able to handle all those rough movements or else I would be rocking in there right at this moment. I guess it's too late to regret not joining the guild when I was young (Laughs at that moment).

Emyrs:(chuckles) I guess I should try joining.

Fredrick: Yeah you should, I heard they have different ranks from the lowers of G all the way to A and finally S. I also heard that if you are a or higher B rank adventure you are counted as a noble in all the human continents. I also heard...

Fredrick kept on blabbering while Emyrs listens to get some points of how this wold works. Being strong doesn't make you smart alright.

As time passed quickly without knowing, they suddenly halted in the middle of the forest. A G rank forest.

Fredrick: Emyrs, we're here.

Emyrs: Here?

Fredrick:(lets out a disturbing grin)Young man, you know the one thing that people like you should be wary about are not the monsters in the forest, but people like us.

Emyrs:(acting dumb, because it is amusing) Us? Is there anyone else than you here?

Fredrick: Are you acting dumb or are you an idiot? (6 more men walked out with a blade on their hands and slowly surrounds Emyrs) We are here to abduct you and sell you off to a slave trader! (Lets out a big laughter)

Emyrs: (a sudden switch of expression) You and your disturbing laughter is truly annoying... Well, I suppose you won't be able to laugh again after this end.

Fredrick: Ha?! Look who's talking big now? An unarmed and clearly unskilled person like you dares to talk big? Once I capture you and beat you up like a dog and then we will see who's talking big then! (Lets out another disturbing laughter) Fellow men, get him! (Charges at Emyrs with a silver dagger pulled out from his pocket)

The 6 men followed him afterwards. Emyrs on the other hand, slowly reached his hand into a sudden formed a space crack ([spatial storage]) and pulled out a black scythe that looks like it has been stained by darkness for countless year,  a space crack ([spatial storage]). It was the weapon that Emyrs made before he left his journey called [eternal darkness] and at that moment time seems to have slowed down. Before Fredrick and his fellow abductors could react...

Crack!

A full swinging motion from the scythe broke the space apart and cleanly sliced through Fredrick and his fellow abductors neck. The next moment, Fredrick along with his fellow abductors halted their moment and...

Splash.

Their heads came off like butter on a hot knife and fell to the ground along with their bodies. The cleanly cut neck finally oozed out like a fountain, staining the leafy green grass bloody red.

Emyrs:(looking at the bodies) At least I got some crucial information from that old man. Now then, I think I saw something on my map just now. (Using [(legendary)map]) Well, this map is way better than [(SR)scan]. Well, the list of spells from my arsenal (magic tower) is way more than I can ever count... Huh? There seems to have some signals of living people indicating from the [map] in the place marked as "bandit hideout" from the [map]. Guess I'll go ahead and checked it out.

Emyrs then head towards the "bandit hideout"...

End
