City of Light/Encounter with a Bandit

After Yuki leaves she quickly catches up to Yumie and starts to talk about their plans when they arrive at the first city that they will rest in.

Yuki was lucky to get reincarnated to the outer part of the forest, where she is near a city, and be safe from the strong beings that live deep inside the Moon Rock Forest.

The first place that they will stop at is called the City of Light. This City is one of the few that let multiple races live together. This is only possible because the City Lord is a strong person, she governs it strictly. The fight is not allowed while you are in the City or else you will get punished and get kicked out.

Yuki already got the information that she needed from this City because of Rong Su and Song Xing, and to say the least that she is not surprised is an understatement.

She was very surprised that there is even a City that dares to let all of the races live together in one place.

It is said that the City Lord of the City of Light is once a Pope who hopes to make the world peaceful, and once Yuki heard that from Rong Su and Song Xing she only laughed and said nonchalantly.

"Her vision is practically impossible unless she is the strongest God there is. It will be impossible if all beings in these words are greedy and they will want to be one to rule and stomp everyone that opposes them."

The three understood what Yuki means of course, in this world power is the only thing that you need. If you have the power you can do whatever you want.

"Yumie, you must remember to stay low once we got to the City of Light okay?"

"Why, didn't you say that strength is all you need?"

"Yes I did say that, but you must widen your views of this world. Because you might never know a strong person is hiding."

"I'm still confused."

"Then listen well, all of the people that we have encountered so far are still weak. There are much stronger people that are lurking in this world, and you must be cautious of what you do or else you will get their attention."

"Then why should we stay low once we enter the City."

"Just like I said earlier, we might get unwanted attention when we do that."

"Okay I get it, I will listen to Mom!"

"Good." Yuki nodded in appreciation and patted Yumie's head.

Thus they continued their journey.

While they were having their journey, Yuki was racking her brains to think of a way to communicate with people there. Even though she can just use her Ice Magic to communicate with them, she worries that people might misinterpret and think that she wants to attack them.

While she was thinking of a way, Yumie was very busy looking at her surroundings because she can feel someone is watching them from a distance.

'Where is this guy hiding, I can't see him.'

Because Yuki was too focused on something else she didn't realize that someone was eyeing them from afar.

Yumie also misunderstood this and thought that this is an additional practice that Yuki want to give to her.

Looking at Yuki's focused and cold face, Yumie guessed that she was waiting for her to make a move. But Yumie was also careful to not alert the person, so she acted as if nothing happened and just walked alongside Yuki.

About 50 meters away a person can be seen standing on a branch and looking at the two Beasts that were walking together.

"I'm lucky to find these two good-looking beasts today, especially that white fox. Her fur must be soft and those ruby red eyes just look so perfect together." The man said, he then rubbed his palms together and looked at Yuki and Yumie with greed in his eyes.

He sneakily jumped across the trees to not get their attention, sadly for him he was already seen by Yumie and was only waiting for him to make the move first.

As he was sneakily inching towards the both of us, Yuki was getting rather annoyed because she still cannot think of a way to communicate once they got to the City of Light

'F*ck! Is there no way for me to talk to them other than using my Ice Magic!?'

On the other hand, Yumie was getting restless because she felt the man was getting closer to them, but she cannot tell which direction he is from.

'Where the hell is this guy hiding!'

When the man was finally close enough, he took out a bow and put some of his Qi into it.

"Paralysis Bolt" He muttered.

Soon the arrow began to static and release some electric current. He then aimed it at Yuki and released the arrow from his grip.

Swoosh

The arrow was very fast, and as the arrow was about to hit Yuki, she suddenly screamed and detonated her area with Ice, resulting in the arrow getting destroyed without a trace.

"Sh*t!"

The man got so scared from the Ice Attack that he quickly hid behind a tree to not get spotted

"Ahhh, what's wrong Mom!" Yumie quickly reacted.

"No it's nothing, I'm just frustrated about something. Don't mind me."

Yumie didn't see that the arrow was about to hit Yuki, but she did feel some strange power that didn't belong to Yuki. So she raised her guard and looked at her surroundings.

Meanwhile, the man felt danger everywhere when he saw the power of Yuki, 'Sh*t, sh*t. How strong is that little fox!'

He then eyed Yumie who looked harmless, he then grinned, 'Looks like I will just have to capture this Pink Lizard then.' His eyes glowed

dangerously while looking at Yumie.

He wasted no time and quickly use his Qi and Martial Arts

The man was living out of robbery in the City Of Light so that he would not get caught he learned Martial Arts that can help his stealth and a Cultivation technique that let him be extremely fast.

He then reached out in his bag and retrieved a poison dagger that would paralyze Yumie and make her weak for the time being.

After that, he vanished from his spot and appeared behind Yumie.

Yumie didn't expect the sudden appearance of the man behind her, so she was too late to react and could only stand her ground and take the blow.

Just as he was about to stab the man, he felt a chill behind his back.

"You dare to attack her behind my back!"

Yuki used her tail and slashed his head out of his body.

It happened so fast that the man even saw his headless body swaying before it fell.

"What happened?" Those were his last words before his head touched the ground.

"He is very courageous! Are you alright Yumie?"

"Ahh! Yes!"

"Alright then let's continue!"
