Under attack

Although we could smell the sea, there were two days of travel to reach the Port of Greenstone, the road was relaxed, with the horses was much more enjoyable although we had to let them rest every half day.

"Be alert, someone approaches with bad intentions, my senses scream danger ..." Rin muttered.

I remembered the village of bandits that we annihilated, surely they were bandits this time too. I mentalized quickly, an error in battle could result in the loss of your own life, I started to circulate the Origin Qi, creating a vortex of Qi around me.

Voices were heard approaching, according to the sound, there should be a dozen people more or less.

"To think that they would order us to kill a child and an animal, it seems that we have fallen too low, boss, we should not have accepted the mission ..."

"Shut up, the payment is incredibly large and there is hardly any risk, finish them as quickly as possible and that's it."

"It seems they are murderers, someone has discovered us," I said as low as I could, at the stage of Strengthening Bones I could already hear in a much higher range. We had only spent a few days in the Free City and had already been discovered, the situation was more dangerous than I expected.

"It's not that simple, Rhig stays alert, this time they are cultivators, the elemental energy around them vibrates slightly, we should not neglect ..." Rin said in a serious voice.

Slowly we could see our enemies, they were eleven, they came riding towards us. They were all dressed in a black suit, which only let their eyes see, they should belong to some kind of sect.

"They are from the Black Fang Sect, they are hired assassins, they should only be apprentices because they do not wear a badge, so everyone should be in the Stage of Strengthening Bones in the first 3 stages, there is hope," Rin explained.

"Should we make ourselves weak so we can kill some of them instantaneously?" I asked this tactic was very common in the novels of

Earth, and it seems that they underestimated us, so it was a good option.

"We can try ..." Rin nodded.

When they reached 20 meters from us they got off the horses and directly unsheathed their weapons, 9 of them used swords, while the other two carried daggers.

"Children, wait there I have to ask you some questions, it's just some questions do not worry." Said the tallest man, looked like his leader, the daggers shone in the light of day.

"Uhm, will you let us go after answering your questions?" I asked, my innocent voice next to the appearance of the 10-year-old boy, did not denote any danger

"Sure, if you want we can pay you to answer our questions ..." The man said while smiling and slowly walked towards Rhig, in his head he was already thinking about how to enjoy the reward, this time he had hit an incredibly good deal.

"They really believed it, Rin put the seal of 5 elements, when I approach him I will attack him hand to hand, I can not make a furtive attack with the spear ..." I remembered Rin who was beside me.

"Lord, where are you going?" I asked as he approached, when he was half a meter away from me I started the sneak attack.

I forced my Qi to the maximum, the turbulence appeared, my assassination attempt spurted out creating a crimson glow in my fists, the man did not expect an attack, but he did not defend himself either. Surely he thought that the attack of a 10-year-old child is despicable.

When the crimson light hit the man's chest, next to the fist with Qi, breaking sounds could be heard everywhere, until a hole was completely opened, the blood scattered the ground, the crimson light became a little more intense

The man could not even scream, but his face reflected the shock.

I could see the expressions of disbelief from others, which quickly ran towards me, there were ten people, this was not going to be easy. I grabbed my spear and looked for some defect, but when the men were less than 10 meters away, the situation changed.

"Earth Cage! Rhig I need time to make a stronger spell, protect me!" Rin shouted while the elemental energy around her vibrated.

Walls of Earth of a meter and a half grew from the ground, it seems that the advance of cultivation was not nonsense, thanks to the walls only 3 managed to reach my position, the others would have to surround the walls and it would give me some time, Rin is as formidable as ever.

"Beware, the wolf is an elemental, beware of elemental fluctuations, she should not be able to form more spells!" Said the other man with the daggers, he was one of those who came frontally towards me.

The 3 assassins that approached, opened in the form of a fan. The smile on my lips was the prelude to the approaching show, I knew that these assassins were formidable and that I could not take on more than two alone.

"I have to force some down, although one by one they are not rivals for me, I have to accept some losses ..." I thought while doing a diagonal cut with all the murderous intent towards the man with daggers.

The spear did not hit him, passed by a side, blocking the way to one of the assassins who was looking for my side, but just as he was going to walk, the dagger killer looked at his chest, a cut of 30 centimeters appeared cutting his lungs.

The crimson light shone even brighter, but I did not have time to think, the two assassins came to my position, my eyes shone with madness. One of them was pointing at my back, and the other was looking for my throat, I could not defend both.

I did a lunge with all my strength to the killer who was going to my throat.

My spear was quick as the wind, dodged the assassin's sword and entered his chest, the assassin attempt exploded inside, at this moment the killer on my back also hit me, Rin was preparing the spell and could not protect me.

I felt a cut of 20 centimeters in my side, it was not too deep, the blood stained the clothes.

The murderous intent that was in the assassin's body, returned to my body quickly, the wound was filled with crimson light and the blood stopped flowing. I took advantage of the murderer's confusion to make another horizontal cut and end his life, the blood flowed again, this was the path of the Berserker.

It only took a few seconds for the other seven to come, this time 5 came to me, and two went to Rin. They knew that she was an Elementalist and did not want to give her time to execute her Elemental Qi

I can not leave Rin alone, she can not defend herself from two murderers ... I ran to her to get on her forehead, the assassin attempt returned to my spear, I made an open cut with the spear to gain distance. The murderers opened again in the form of a fan, this time they were going to surround us.

"Be careful practice some demonic art, I saw how he killed without hitting the spear, stay tuned ..." Shouted one of the murderers, fear could be seen in his eyes.

"Rhig, you're going to get some injuries but, it's our only survival option, and when I warn you, hit the spear on the ground with as much Qi as you can," Rin said in a calm voice.

I could feel the Elemental Qi coming together on my feet, I had no other choice, I could not defend myself against seven people alone, so I fully trusted Rin. I gathered all the Qi of my body in this attack, added the crimson light. I probably needed a few seconds later to recover, but it did not matter.

"Hit the ground with all your Qi!" Rin yelled, she fell unconscious after saying that.

Seeing Rin fall unconscious, it reminded me how implacable this life was, these murderers were going to kill some children, if Rin died I was going to die too. I squeezed my whirlpools to the max, the Wrath was clouding my mind, but at the same time, it accelerated my swirls of Qi.

The Qi next to the assassination attempt, caused a crimson breeze to surround me. I hit the spear on the ground with all my might, while pumping all the Qi and attempted assassin that was in my body.

The earth began to tremble when it received all the blow, after a brief moment, I felt like all the Qi I used was disappearing on the ground, I kept supplying all the Qi that I could absorb madly.

"Careful is an elem ..." Said a man, but when he was going to finish the sentence, a spear of earth stabbed his chest.

Spears from the ground emerged from the ground one after another, the assassination attempt sometimes erupted and caused minor injuries that prevented dodging, I focused on recovering all my Qi, it would take at least 5 seconds. Spears kept coming up, another assassin was careless and a spear pierced him completely.

Only 2 people remained, 5 people had been impaled on the spears, the other two survived because they used the bodies of others to jump in the air avoiding the spears, they would reach me in a few seconds, I did not have time to recover completely.

"I'm going to die after spending a few days with my wife?" I murmured, fate never let me know love. While I was thinking this, a river of murderous intent was returning to me through the spear, full of energy, my mind began to cloud. I did not know what was happening, but it was not the time to ask, I needed to kill them, or Rin would be in danger.

The murderous intent caused me to move by pure instinct, the spear pierced the chest of one of the murderers without resistance, my spear was much faster than he with his sword, but the other murderer crossed my shoulder, the sword was completely stuck, Without waiting for him to take up the sword, I stuck my spear in his stomach and pushed him a few meters until a spear of earth ended his life.

Before fainting, I pulled the sword from my shoulder, saw how the blood of the other murderers was slowly coming towards me and my sight was completely blackened.
