Chapter 276: Bounty Hunt
With all that happened during the war, involving the guilds. Samurai guild was able to make a pinch escape and also enter Moon empire, it was no news since they had a very smart and cunning guild leader, which is how they’ve kept their ranking as second. But with the Whitevale greatly weakened they rose to first, and started making movents within Moon empire after also receiving the blessing of Ariel. Though not every one agreed with Nakamura’s decision to receive the blessing he opened the door for anyone that wanted to leave. But he was hell bent ok following Ariel and after receiving the Ariel’s blessing he also gained a Subclass along with a substantial quest, which made him feel like he was making a progress after the long pause of his growth as a player under the influence of the systemgod and having to make a decision of having to make his body a plaything for the gods. Atleast from his own standpoint.
He and his guild mbers also received the quest and have been trying to track Lewis and Penguin. As they were not a part of the war, they were not going to let go of their chances to establish a guild in the moon empire has because if the laws owning a guild was almost impossible. The only guild that stood within the empire was a new guild ford by Keiji, with Eden as its guildleader, though it was still infamous because of its location so many might as well thought there are no guilds.
It wasn’t only the Sakura guild that was feeling like this, even guilds with less guts wants to catch the envoy. They either want to have a base within the Moon empire or want to establish themselves there.
Nakamura observed as he stood in his pale-blue coloured yukata(ancient Japanese dress) and with his hands on his black kitana sword.
"What do you think Henry-san" he said.
"Guild master, I think this person is soone we would not want to ss with, this guy sure is strong..." Henry, a grey haired man on low haircut said, he had a mark on the side of his eyes that seed to has co from a cut and he had no eyeballs.
"...the deepness of the wounds, even the way the bodies are placed tells that this man didn’t spend much ti killing them, if this person can kill so much people easily, then perhaps we also should get ready to lose n" Henry concluded.
"Well, do you think it will be worth it?" Nakamura asks.
"Guildmaster, I am not in position to answer that question, I am not the only one who’ll be laying his life...you have to ask the rest of the guild mbers. But I do know that settling down will be a great start for us, the monsters, the dungeons around here are different, I don’t know if sothing is causing it but I can tell that this place is fortune..."
Nakamura sighed.
"Where is the assistant guild leader, always walking off on her own again"
"Miss Jeanne, sure does like to wander alot but she always cos back with a gift." Henry said.
"You are right...that thug" He sighed and ventured forward with Henry.
.....
The movent around everywhere was strong, after slayimg a flew players outside the Platinum City, they have entered the lead city and strictly under cover especially from the soldiers that patrol the streets almost every hour. At first Lewis thought this was all because of what he had done. But he couldn’t deny that fact these soldiers were not even paying attention to him like he atleast not as much as he would’ve guessed.
Lewis sat on the chair in the Inn they managed to secure while hiding their identities, even though the players around still suspiciously stared at them.
"Why are players after us instead of knights?" Penguin asked.
"He might have placed a bounty on our heads..." Lewis replied.
"How much, is it to move players like this on a large scale..." Penguin said again.
"I have no idea, it is a but confusing...I wish there was a way to identify between players with Ariel’s blessing and Players under the influence of systemgod."
"Isn’t the fact that you were not able to see their status enough proof that they are from Ariel" Penguin said.
"I find it hard to calculate because of that, are you telling
that the Emperor is related to this Ariel and if so, how much related are they for her to be able to issue a quest on his behalf. I might once again have been fooled if this is the case...things might get dangerous for us." Lewis said.
"Things have already gotten quite dangerous Sir Lewis, we have to leave this Empire first thing tomorrow morning" Penguin said and laid on his bed after taking off his armour. He stared at the ceiling as the room fell into grave silence.
After awhile Lewis had failed asleep, he looked at the sleeping Lewis and smiled.
"You’ve had to shoulder too much at your age, I wish I can find you a rest, and so ti away from the politics of this enti–"
He suddey paused and looked around. He subtly crouched and crowl towards the place he placed his sword—
~THUDD!!!~
~CRAWSHK~
The ceiling broke and fell into the room before he could reach for the sword, he flew unto Lewis, grabbed him and flew out of the window landing on the roof of another building, forgoing his armour and sword, the person that was after him flew out of the window alongside, her pink hair glowed in the moon as she flew from outside the window to unto the roof and started to pursue Penguin. Who was very fast, he had jumped three buildings ahead of her and it was lookingike she was going to lose him. She placed her hands on her sword and muttered–
"Line sword"
~SWISH~
She was projected forward and past Penguin by a line as she drew her sword. Penguin even though he had to bend very low over his back and push Lewis rewards the ground, he still couldn’t avoid grazes. He stood back up and saw that Lewis was already making a run for it, then he looked into the eyes of the pink haired lady.
"That must be the envoy...I’m more interested in him than I am in you" she said and jumped in the sky heading towards the ground.
~THWAUCK!!~
Penguin squeezed a blow into her stomach, she was projected back to the roof (from the sky that she was) by his punch. She coughed and spat as she regained herself and began to stand.
’What the hell, I underestimated him, I didn’t think he was going to be that fast, not with his huge muscles’ she said in her head and tightened her grip on her sword as she got ready for him.
Penguin tightened his fist and put his arms up.
"You are going to fight
with your–"
~SWIIISH~
Penguin arrived in front of her in just a snap, she quickly put up her sword to block his coming punch.
~POW~
~POW~
His other hand ca in from beneath as sword, pushing her belly very hard once again as she lost the compsure of the sword she had put up to block, he quickly grabbed her face as her sword ca down, pulled her on closer and—
~POWH~
~POWH~
Punched her stomach again and still not letting of his grip on her face he smashed her head to the ground, she imdiately hooked his arm by wrapping her legs around it while trying to reach for her sword as she had let go of it while getting thrown to floor of the roof. She tightened her grip on Penguins arm and flipped him to her side as he fell both of them rolled down the sloppy roof and fell to the ground. She quickly stood up and jumped back whilst Penguin landed on his fist.
"You have quite the survival spirit" Penguin said.
"Va te faire foutre"
"Huh?"
"It’s a French for fuck you" she said and quickly climbed up the walls to head to the roof, but Penguin jumped high faster than her and higher than she had reached.
"I speak Dutch you bastard!!" He said and slapped her down on her face with his wide hand, she fell to.the ground and coughed blood.
"Did you really think you would get past ..." Penguin said as he slowly walked towards her while she tried to get up.
"Did you really think that I would he the only one coming after you" she said and smirked.
Penguin’s eye widened, "You bastard!!" He said and ran off, faster than she could follow. She sat on the floor and giggled.
"I can’t believe I was beaten before I could even fight...that guy is fucking strong" she said to herself.
