Legendary (Part: 1)

Hayato arrived at the entrance, he was wearing his usual Akatsuki robe. When he arrived he was the only one there

Hayato looked left and right and he takes out the map of the Monster Continent from his Inventory

' Alright... where is that Loran desert? ' Hayato observed the map and almost at the center of the continent was the Loran desert, which is part of the only Kingdom at the center of the continent. The Kingdom isn't in the desert but there are a few villages there, are at least 5 of them

' The Loran Kingdom... Hmm... it has a big territory one of the biggest ones at least, it covers all the desert and some of the forests and meadows around ' The map has indications of the Kingdom territories marked with lines of different colors ' The Loran desert is at the southeast from this Kingdom, maybe will take us 2 or 3 days to arrive there without stopping, but I'm not so sure '

Hayato kept looking at the map until something called his attention ' What about these three Kingdoms at the edge of the continent, all of them are lined they look like a wall that way, hmm... they don't have a name they are grouped with just the name Guardian Races... but there isn't more any information about them '

Hayato was in doubt, but he forgot about it soon and he kept seeing the map for a while until someone approached him

" Kid, you arrived a little earlier, no? " A rough voice speaks to him

Hayato rolls up the map and turns to see the owner of the voice, he smiles and says " Just a little earlier, Vice-Guild Master "

The Vice-Guild Master smiles and says " Haha, the prince and the others should arrive soon, you have everything you need? where is your weapon? "

Hayato put out his katana from under his robe and says with a grin " Here it is "

The Vice-Guild Master raises an eyebrow with doubt, seeing the Katana, and says " That sword is very thin, you should bring a better one, Death Worms have very thick skin "

Hayato shakes his head " No, this sword is enough, it maybe doesn't look but is strong " and he puts the Katana under his robe to then store it in his inventory

The Vice-Guild Master grins and turns to see at his right side " Ok, now the Prince is here "

The Prince arrived with a man beside him. The man wears the same black armor as the Prince, he is a little bit taller than him, but they looked around the same age as him around 26 years old, he is quite handsome with short brown hair, golden eyes, and a strong body

The Prince smiled at the Vice-Guild Master and says " You two are the first ones here, I thought we would be the first to arrive "

" Well, I was the second one, haha, how have you been Joseph? " The Vice-Guild Master nods with a smile at the man beside the Prince

The man named Joseph looks serious and says " Fine " Then he turns to see Hayato and says " And he is? "

The Prince responded to him first and says with a smile " He is Hayato Uchiha, a newly S-Rank adventurer, don't underestimate him despite his age the Vice-Guild Master here has plenty of trust in his abilities "

Joseph kept his serious face as he says " Nice to meet you Hayato Uchiha, you can call me Joseph, I'm the second partner of the Prince " Then he turns to see the Prince and says " With all respect, we should bring more people, Joe is lucky to be alive "

The Prince grins and says " I told you or I forgot it... well, the point is that the group isn't completed yet, we have to wait for Harduid's group and Aaron's group "

" I see... Harduid is an Advance Sky Champion and Aaron an Intermediate Sky Warrior, but we should call Violet too, maybe she is in the Kingdom " Joseph asked the Prince with a serious expression

Hayato overhears the conversation ' Harduid is a what? I never hear about that before and that guy Aaron has the same strength as Dye, I think that I'm the weakest here '

" *COUGH* " The prince coughs and says with a nervous smile " No, she is making another mission, so she isn't in the Kingdom "

" That's a shame, let's hope we can do something with these numbers " Joseph shakes his head with a serious face

" It will be alright " The Prince smiled confidently at Joseph and they waited until Harduid, Vandrour, and Dworshak arrived

Harduid smiles as he strokes his beard and says " What a surprise it seems that these old bones are faster than that arrogant kid, I don't see him anywhere "

" What are you saying, old man? " Aaron and his group appeared behind them, Aaron looks Harduid coldly

" Oh... " Hayduid raises his eyebrows with a smile

The blond girl bows her head with a smile " Sorry, we had to make some repairs to Aaron's armor "

" Amber, you don't have to tell them our reasons " Aaron sees the blond girl with an annoyed expression, but she only smiled at him

" Well, they are our partners for this mission, so we have to communicate with them " The voluptuous woman said with a smile

" Tch! " Aaron clicked his tongue and ignores his partners

" Like always Michaela is the only one that can convince you right, Aaron? " Amber smirks mockingly at Aaron

" Hoho, we should leave, it will take us a couple of days to arrive at the Loran desert " Harduid said with a happy expression

The Prince shakes his head and says " Maybe less, I hired someone that can take us there with Giant Millipedes "

Hayato narrows his eyes ' The same monsters that brought us here, that will be handy '

Vandrour makes a surprised face and says " Oh, you convinced some beast-men to take us there? that will be a great help "

The Prince makes a wry smile and says " Yes, but I had to pay them more than triple for the three Millipedes, now let's go, they will see us outside of the Kingdom "

They left the Kingdom and on the horizon, they saw three black dots that began to approach them

" There they are " Said the prince with a smile, they were three Giant Millipedes

Hayato couldn't see them until they were close to them and he raised his eyebrows with surprise ' These are bigger than the ones we rode to arrive here, at least they are 5 meters tall and 15 meters long and the most impressive thing is the armors that they have ' The Millipedes have metallic plates in each section of their long bodies even the head have protection, the tents that they have on their backs are larger made with wood and steel

A man with wolf-like ears and a long tail stands above the head of the Millipede, he has silver hair and blue eyes wearing clothes made of brown fur

The Prince saw him and smiles " All ready, Theogren? "

The Beast-man smiles and says " Of course, Prince Anthony, the Millipedes can resist a surprise attack from a Death Worm, but these babies still can't fight against them "

The Prince shakes his head and says " That's not a problem, you just need to take us there "

" Ok, you are the one who is paying " Theogren turns to see the other two Millipedes and yells " Aabart! Ginnund! put down the staircases, we will leave when all of them are ready! "

The prince turns to see the Vice-Guild Master and says" We will go with Theogren " Then he sees Hayato and says " You will come with us "

Hayato nods and says " Ok "

The prince sees the other adventurers and says " Harduid, Vandrour, and Dworshak you three will go with Ginnund and Aaron, Amber and Michaela you will go with Aabart "

" Yeah, yeah, let's go already " Aaron said with annoyance as he walks to the millipede with Amber and Michaela behind him

" Hmph, arrogant kid let's go " Said Vandrour coldly and they walked to the other Millipede

" Okay, let's go if we are lucky maybe we could arrive tomorrow morning " Said the Vice-Guild Master as he climbed to the Millipede back and enters the tent

When they climbed the Millipedes the Beast-men make them move, they moved at a very fast speed

' These Millipedes are faster than the small ones I rode despite having all those metallic plates all over his body '

The Prince sees Hayato and asks " Hey, It is true that you had a clash with some of the adventurers that were servants of my brother "

Hayato turns to see the Prince with a calm face " It's true, I kill them all, that's a problem? "

" What? you never told me that? " Said the Vice-Guild Master as he was seeing Hayato with a surprised expression

The Prince replied with a smile " It happened yesterday, I already got rid of the corpses after my brother left, so that's why you didn't know "

The Vice-Guild Master turns to see Hayato with a serious face and says " Then, who you killed? "

" I don't remember their names " Said Hayato without interest

The Prince shakes his head with a smile and says " It was Clarissa's group "

" Then, the 5 of them are dead, those 5 brought a lot of trouble " The Vice Guild Master shakes his head with a serious face

Joseph nods and says " Yes they did, Prince Anthony told me that before, that they were kidnaping women for Prince Reid "

" Then I'm in trouble? " Hayato asked with a grin

The prince smiles widely and says " Of course not, I will thank you for that, Joseph was going to kill them, but they always disappeared before he arrived, but they met their end with you "

" Hmph " Hayato smirks

The prince then makes a serious face and says " You know, I'm not like my brother, even if we look equal we are completely different " He turns to see the outside and says " When my father dies, I'm planning to live a life of an adventurer, leaving the kingdom to the Adventurers Guild after all the Kingdom is still there thanks to the Adventurers Guild "

' Why is he telling me this ' Hayato narrows his eyes seeing him but Joseph and the Vice-Guild Master saw him with calm faces

The Prince turns to see Hayato with a serious face and says " Maybe you are wondering why am I telling you this, right? well the truth is that I don't want you to join me against my brother, we can be friends, but I will deal with him by myself, even if he searched for help from powerful adventurers "

Hayato turns to see the Vice-Guild Master and says " You knew about this, Vice-Guild Master? "

The Vice-Guild Master nods and says " Yes, I and the Guild Master created a council that will rule the kingdom when Prince Anthony renounces the crown "

Hayato is surprised and says " So when you asked me to not interfere it was... "

The Vice-Guild Master smiles and says " Yes, it was an order from him "

" Hmm... " Hayato bows his head with a serious face ' This guy doesn't seem to be lying but how he will face his brother and his allies alone? I should... no if he is so sure of winning I shouldn't interfere '

The Prince frowns and says " Don't worry about trivial things, you should leave the kingdom after this mission after all that brother of mine saw your partners and I'm sure that now he is after them "

Hayato narrows his eyes seeing the prince ' If he tries something against them I will kill him even if he tries to stop me '

They kept talking about a few things until was night even at night the Millipedes kept running without decreasing their speed

The four of them slept on the Millipede tent, thanks to its large size then Theogren yells " Hey! Wake up! We arrived at the desert! " but *BANG* the tent shakes

Hayato stands up and sees outside the tent and he saw at least 7 worm-like creatures adhered to Millipede's armor, twisting it with what appeared to be their mouths, they are orange in color and their sizes differ, some look around 3 meters long, and others around 6 meters long, Hayato jumps through the window of the tent as he covers his Katana with his Chidori

*STAB* " GRAWRRR!! " The Death Worm contorts in pain trying to remove Hayato from his head, showing Hayato his multiple pointed teeth, they even have parts of the Millipede armor stuck between them and then it stops moving

[ 'Bing!, You receive 2,500 System Points' ]

" Ha..! " Harduid jumps from the other Millipede with a great hammer in his arms " Great Crushing! " the hammer shines with a red light and *BOOM* He makes one of the Death Worms explode by the impact

" Raa!! " The Vice-Guild Master jumped at the same time as Harduid " Great Strenght Boost! " and crushes two small Death Worms with his hands

*SWOOSH* *SWOOSH* Joseph and the Prince descend from the Millipede killing each a Death Worm with their swords shining in a red light

From the back of the Millipede, Michaela raised her staff against the last Death Worm and " Wind Bullet! " the air bullet travels in a blink and pierces the Death Worm leaving a huge hole without damaging the Millipede

" There are more on this side! " Aaron jumped to the other side of the Millipede

The Prince makes a serious face and says " There are more than I expected, Theogren! leave with your partners, your job is done! "

Hayato frowns and yells " Not only those! I can feel that more is coming! " he points to a dune

The Prince makes a serious face and says " What the hell is going on?! how many of them are!? "
