The group then proceed to walk on the path while the knights pulled the carriage." Is the town far?"Asked Lucas as he have noticed that his shadow was noticeably longer than earlier indicating the time." No my Lord , we are already close to the city of Bridgestone when we were attacked by the direwolves, we will surely reach it before night fall."Hearing this Lucas was confused." If we are this closed to city and you being a noble lady , why are is it that no one came as to rescue you" Melissa was turned red and slowly answered" I- I was able to send a distress signal to the city and I'm sure that there are now people on their way to save us , but the pack of wolves attack as aggressively. If not for the lord they will surely be coming to recover corpses"Lucas frowned but did not asked any further. As a avid reader ,he know that sometimes there are conflict in a noble circle which he assume was what is happened, but it was not his business and decided to not think of it any fu
Merrion drove fast and only stop when they reach the Brig's manor. He then escorted Lucas and the lady inside.There are no other complicated ceremony as the lady excuse herself ,as she have just survive a life threatening incident and will need rest.The servants then lined up in front of Lucas asking him of what he needs. Lucas was embarrassed by the sudden luxury and decided to just asked for a clean clothes and a bath.His uniform that was now in a pretty beat up situation was then stored in his inventory.After his bath ,Lucas the slept on the bed that was prepared for him, he was elated that he can now sleep on a bed .Because of the comfortable atmosphere, Lucas was able to sleep in a flash.MidnightA four horse carriage came in front of Brig's Manor and stop adruptly with a tug from it's driver.A man that appears to on his late fifties pop out of the carriage door with a slam and then immediately walk in a fast pace along the path.The butler Fore was standing on the path as
" I'm sorry,wrong place!"Lucas then walk back.A deep voice then sounded from behind him." This is the mage tower .. Your in a the right place."Lucas flinched by the sudden voice.' Maybe he is a giant mage! after all this world has many races'" No ,I'm not a giant. I'm human magician of this tower.."' He can read minds!?'Lucas was flabbergasted" No , I can't read minds.."The towering muscles of a man stated to making Lucas more confused." Then how-?"" People always asked the same thing after thing when they see me .. "" Oh !"' He must one of those mage who cast 'fist' 'Lucas pondered." What brings you to the tower?..."asked the man in a slow low voice.Lucas was then remembered what he came for." Ah , yes ! I'm here to register as magician!"The man look at him for a while and then gestured at him." Follow me.."He then walked without talking , Lucas then entered.*****Lucas survey the surrounding field for any monster.He used his life detection skill and found thre
" Tht came from the city gate"Lucas look over the horizon to the direction of the gates.He bit down the last meat on his skewers and then run over on the said direction.He run fast and reach the periphery of the gates in a few minutes.Armed guard are now converging on the the big gate.Smoke can be seen on the path leading to outside.The guards also prevented the unauthorized people to get near, including Lucas.Lucas the choose not to push himself through and just observe from afar. He then saw a huge guys in magician robe rushing to the gates accompanied by two smaller guys with the same robes.Lucas was elated and rush to the magicians.The group now have reach the guards and Gerald is now speaking with them when Lucas got near them." Gerald !"Lucas called out.Gerald look back. The guards raised their raised their hand in to stop Lucas ." Sir , I need you get back unauthorized people are not allowed her right now."Gerald then wave his hand which then confuse the guards."
" Are there any reply from the guild master or the tower master ?"Asked Lord Brig's to the people inside the room.They are Gerald and some of his magician college, A armored old man ,the vice guild master of the guild,together with three gold rank adventurers, The Knight Commander, and lastly a priests in all white garb that seemingly glow as the light hit it.It was the first time for Lucas to see this people, especially the priest as he have only walked around the city for a few hours.He recalled that the lady prevented him from joining the adventurers guild but as he observe those people he finally understood why. The adventures guild are composed of commoners, so it may appear as a disgrace for a noble to be associated with them. Lucas thought that he should have just joined the guild if he knows that the words of the lady was out of prejudice, but it's all irrelevant now as he now belongs to the tower of mage.They convened a meeting to discuss their plan on how they should fa
The sun was now high up the sky. Above the wall, soldiers lined up with their bow and arrows. Ballistas are also being prepared.The mood is heavy, every person are now in a trance and do their task without warning.Lucas observe the people as they scurry to evacuate out the west of the city, it has only been an hour since the explosion of the carnage flower.Some knights and soldiers are managing the evacuation,making sure that everything is moving fast enough.Lucas walk forward as he saw a elderly woman drop her luggage. He pick it up and brought it on the carriage, the old woman thanks him which Lucas replied with a smile.*Hoooooonnnnnnggggg* The sound of the signal suddenly sounded making the hearts of everybody to jump out their throat." No time to evacuate, you four escort the civilians on the east side of the city , find a building and hide there.The rest of you to the wall!"Shout the knight captain to the people helping out in the evacuation.Lucas also run up the wall an
Lucas tried tried to see through the gaps of the trees by squinting his eyes.As the sound of heavy steps gets closer , he saw something covered in black fur. He tried to use his appraisal but it suddenly disappear from his sight." What the-"Lucas was stunned quiet has he saw the surrounding became darker, a bad premonition came to his mind. He look up and saw a huge gorilla with black fur , hurling full speed at his location." Sh*t!"Lucas turn tail at full speed , after a second the huge thing fell with a * bang*.Lucas stumbled and roll to as the ground beneath his feet shook.Lucas recover fast , and look at the gorilla." That huge d* nm monkey!"Lucas fire up his appraisal to see what is it.( Rage Gorilla(lvl23) leader of rage monkeys, huge, awakened)Lucas was flabbergasted as what he saw.' that's huge alright, it should be around 5 meters in hight alone!'*bang*bang*"Roaar!"The gorilla bang it chest and roar loudly. This made the monkeys on the field to fall into a f

The Hero is still in the middle of rescue which is why the system cannot calculate SP until the end of saving""Lucas was shock and panic for a second. He was planning to upgrade his status and buy some skill to prepare for the next wave.But he immediately pondered upon it and calm down.' It was not the lack of skill and stats that is hindering me,
