“You are also a mage? How can you do that!?” Devon wanted to learn the secret to control magic like that.
“If you wish to submit yourself and that woman, I will surely tell you how!” the man charged toward Devon with enhanced speed.Devon could not really see it coming at him. Devon received an attack and it hurt him on his left arm. The robe was a bit torn by that dagger and blood began to appear from that wound.“This is bad! He got accelerated!” Devon mumbled. He did not think that he could match up to the speed. He might lost the battle if he did not find a way.“There are two ways for you to handle this situation. First, you need to match or surpass your enemy’s speed. Second way, you should limit his movement.” beelzebub tried to give Devon a suggestion.“Whoa? Why are you telling me this?” Devon was so surprised. He thought that the demon would wait for their time if Devon went unconscious.“We are just bored seeing you keDevon and his party finally arrived at Beacrouz city. Just like what Baron Rudeth has mentioned before, the city was flourished with so many people doing some business. Along the way to search for Rudeth’s friend, the group could see some industries, offices, and other establishments with some workers doing their jobs.“Devon, you should stay quiet and be careful. We don’t if there are people like those bounty hunters here.” Roxanne tried to warn Devon. She looked worried.“Okay …” Devon was the one with the most worried. He tried to use his Master of Wit skill. It was to make sure that no one was considered as enemies. Devon scanned radar-like vision in his sight and there were no sign of red dots, yet. So many blue dots resembles people that were considered allies or neutral.“Sir, Rudeth. We are going to meet your friend, right? Do you know where is he?” Cecillia asked. She wondered if Rudeth knew the way or not.“About that, well. I don’t really know where is he? Hahaha!” Rudeth i
After hearing such a request from Rudeth, Shareen started to think about something. She looked like having a hard time to decide. “First of all, I would like to say my thanks for giving your condolence to my father. Then, about lending you a ship. I don’t think I can do that unless it is considered as business matter.” Shareen did not really care whether she was facing a Baron or common person, as long as she could deal with it in business way to earn money, she would strive for it.As expected, Rudeth has anticipated that this greedy girl might bring this matter into a real business. Rudeth has prepared some cash with him actually to lend the ship.“Such a fine young woman. You really remind me of our father. I have some cash with me but I want the ship ready today. Can you make it?” Rudeth began the bargaining.“Wait? Today?” It seemed like Shareen was not ready to settle it up. “My deepest apologize, sir. There is no ship ready at the moment. Our expedi
Devon looked at the clothes displayed in the store. He was enticed to see it. Deep within his heart he really wanted to look good in that suit but then he remembered that he did not really deserved to accept that. Devon could only sighed and put a forced smile to show on Rudeth.“Welp. Maybe someday I can get you one. But you need to make a great achievement first so that it would be worthy for me to give you a special prize! Haha!” It seemed like Rudeth promised Devon that he could give him a present later if Devon managed to do something great.“Thank you, sir. I really appreciate it!” Devon still with his forced smile tried to respond Rudeth’s encouragement.The old man and the young boy then continued their way until they arrived near a harbor. They looked at the blue sky that was starting to change color with orange and yellow. The sea reflected that vast sky hiding some mysteries longing to be unraveled.“If only we can get a ship now, we ca
Devon and his party made a deal with Shareen and they were on their way to Wenostra. They went to Wenostra by a ship owned by Shareen. Since Shareen has been betrayed by most of his crews, she only managed to ask one person to be the sailor on the sea journey to Wenostra. Everyone has already prepared many things they needed to bring up in their journey. Once everything has settled up, they began to set sail.It was a first time experience to some of them going somewhere by a ship. It was not a surprise if few people may feel seasickness on their first time ride.“HOOEK!!”Fransesca was standing near the edge of the ship. She was the first person to feel the seasickness.“Oh my. Sis Fran, are you alright?” Arwen was standing right beside her friend. She tried to give a massage on Fransesca’s back neck.“Aren’t you… feeling…. weird…. Arwen? Gulp… Hoeeeek!” Fransesca tried to hold up but it was useless. She kept getting nauseous.“Well, honestly. I feel okay.” Arwen replied. She did not
First thing to do before they started to search for Gesta’s mansion, they needed to find a place to stay. Rudeth led the group and asked everyone to help him find an inn to stay. They needed to take a rest after a long journey in the sea.“Uhm, Shareen is coming with us?” Cecillia realized the owner of the ship followed their group since they arrived.“My apologize if I’m bothering you guys. Please let me hang out with you for a while.” Shareen demanded. While they were walking together to find an inn, Shareen also scanned the city with lots of people staring at them. It seemed that no one recognized any of them.“Stay alerted, boy. We don’t want people to chase after you.” Rudeth warned Devon to be careful with his action.“Yes, sir…” Devon replied. Being a wanted person was problematic for him. He needed to always hide his face in that city.They finally found the best inn after it took them for almost half an hour. They took a rest the
The woman frowned her eyes and she started to remember things she saw back then.“I believe I saw him. Yes! Your brother is one of those slaves. The slaves are being kept in the basement of Gesta Wenovitch’s mansion.”“I see. I hope he is still alive …” Cecillia grabbed her necklace stronger wishing that she could save him soon.“Also, I actually have a favor to ask you …” The woman actually got something in her mind besides giving Cecillia about her brother’s information.“What is it, ma’am?” Cecillia asked.“Please save everyone being taken as slaves!” the woman bowed her head, begging for Cecillia’s help. The woman saw them coming to the city by the ship and she could see a big muscular man was with them before. The woman believed that the they might be a group pf people with power and they might be able to save the slaves. “My best friend went crazy after her son was taken as slave. She was so desperate and kind of lost her hope after
Devon returned back to the inn to have a meeting with his peers. Thanks to his new cloak of invisibility, he could easily wander around the tow without being found. Devon told everyone that he got his new useful artifact and everyone was amazed. Devon tried to practice how to use the artifact right in front of them. Devon’s presence was hidden perfectly but still this artifact could not hide Devon’s voice. If the user of the cloak was noisy, people might recognize it.Besides giving everyone about his new item, Devon then began to devise a rescue plan to save the imprisoned slaves in Gesta’s mansion. Devon already knew where the location of the mansion while he was wandering around using his cloak. By activating his Master of Wit skill he could also scan the city and found out the exact location of the slaves. Now Devon needed to use his big brain to formulate the best plan.“Here is my plan.” Devon stood up right in the middle of the room where everyone was paying attention to Devon.
Devon could also heard other slaves were crying. They might be seeing the horror of torture.“Mwahahahaha! Scream louder! You lowly peasants! Beg for mercy!” A familiar voice was also heard by Devon, This demonic voice must be coming from Gesta.Without taking more time listening to the merciless moment, Devon decided to break the iron door and made his invisible arrival in the basement.With the breaking door, everyone in the basement room was shocked to see that no one was there near the broken door.“What the hell!? Is there a ghost!?” Gesta looked so surprised.“No, master Gesta. There is someone there. I can feel a presence.” Verix was also there inside the basement accompanying his master as usual.[NEW MISSION][PUNISH GESTA AND HIS MEN][REWARD : 1000 DC][TIME LIMIT : 60 MINUTES][PENALTY : LOST CONSCIOUS]“Shit! Whoever you are, you shall pay for what you did!” Gesta had enough having fun torturing the slaves. He was focused now to reveal who might be the intruder that dare
