Flying Fugitive
"I should get going before the Knights arrive." When Kris was about to open the door, he was greeted by a loud call.
"Fire!" The Knight's captain ordered his men to shot flaming arrows towards Kris' direction.
Countless of flaming arrows rained down the hut so he had to quickly closed the door to avoid damage.
The house quickly burned, everything outside and inside turned ablaze.
The players had arrive in the area, after seeing the flaming hut, they're hopes fell down thinking that the criminal has been killed.
"Wait guys! There is no notification alert so that should mean that the murderer is still alive!" After hearing the man's words, they quickly rushed towards the hut.
Blaam!
The door blast open and there was no one inside, only debris and gloomy shadows could be seen inside.
"Is the murderer alive captain?" A soldier asks who is holding a spear.
"Be alert, that guy should be still alive." The captain said to the soldiers who were surrounding the hut.
There were a total of 200 soldiers that had the level of 100s, 20 1st-tiered knights that had the level of 200s while their captain was on the level 300s of a high-tiered knight.
The players had also surround the perimeter, trying to not let the murderer escape.
The players amount was about 500, and were utmost in the level of 200s while some were in 300s but could be counted with one hand.
"No ones here cap-" before the soldier could finish his sentence, a cable flew towards his direction.
Hooot!
The cable passed through his head.
"Ah! What?!" The soldier had thought that he was dead but it seems that was only a trick.
"Sigh, thank god I'm still ali-" a man in robe instantly dashed and flew, after it contacted the soldier on the door, it spun its two swords, chopping the man in pieces.
"Khuok! What the hell?! Fire! Don't let that fugitive fly away!"
The captain ordered his men and began to continuous shoot arrows to the man but no one could hit it due to his extreme speed.

A fit man with brown hair wearing caped leather armor was walking on the towns road while talking to someone that was not even around.
The people who were around thought the man was crazy but the players who saw it knew who the man why he talked to himself, he was non other than Adventurer Terry, an assassin class streamer who loved to travel in different towns to talk about different cultures, items and people that could be seen inside that area.
He was famous for his charisma when every time he talks to NPCs and he was called "The Guide" since he gives pointers and teaches his viewers about the game. His schedule was that on M-W-F (Monday,Wednesday, Friday) where he would tour his viewers to different towns while on T-T-S-S (Teusday,Thursday,Saturday and Sunday) he would go on hunting mobs and dealing quests.
Today was Wednesday so he was in Mercado Town talking about the town's beauty and how many players where in all.
But then an Unexpected Town Quest covered his view.
"Oh look guys! A town quest,quick trivia! Town quest rarely happens and when there is a major program happening and in need of man power or a criminal has done something very vicious and it looks like this is connected to a criminal who has murdered a retired knight!"
He read the comments that were popping up on the side of his view.
= Dude, you should check it out!
= Why would a player murder a retired Knight?
= last time there was a crime in Resailess was when the game just had started.
= what crime did he commit?
= a pervert tried to harassed a woman that he didn't know was one of the royal family causing him to be placed in prison for 3 years meaning that he couldn't play the game for a year.

"Well then, I'll try and look to it."
Terry began to leap on a house to get a faster route to the scene of the crime.

'Fuck this shit!' He flew towards the walls of a building.
The tanks of the players and NPCs lined up and used crowd control skills shaking the house down.
'Ah crap!' He was about to shoot a cable to a near building but sadly he missed causing it to return and falling him to the ground.
Thud!
He didn't slam on the ground except he had did a superhero landing.
"What is that weapon? Have you ever seen it?" An archer asks.
"No, its my first time seeing that type of weapon." A mage answered.
"A weapon that could shoot out a stringed arrow causing him to be pulled by it." A sorceress in glasses inspected Kris.
"He might have asked an expert blacksmith to modify that type of weapon." A monk furrowed his brows.
They were now surrounding Kris on the building's wall. The tanks covered them with their man sized shield, the spearmen placed their spears on the sides of the shields, warriors and swordsmen where in the back of the spearmen, the sorcerers and supports were in the rear readied their chants while the marksmen charged there bows on the roofs of the building, lastly the assassins had hid on the shadows ready to assault.
This formation was all due to one man who had glowing red eyes and was now standing, gripping his swords on each hand.
"Young man! Surrender if you don't want us to use force against you!" The captain said who was pointing his long sword to Kris.
But Kris began slowly circulate his head causing crackling sounds.
'Lets do this!' Kris pointed his right sword on the captain then the right projector shot a cable towards the captain that the captain himself couldn't avoid.
"Khouk! Oh! Its okay its just some hologram type of weapon!" But after the Captain had spoke, Kris flew towards him.
"Come! Let's see how strong you are!" The captain confidently stance his sword and defended his attack.
But what he believed quickly rebounded.
EwChing! Ching!
The swords had cut the long sword in threes placing him in disbelief and fear.
"What the-" before he could finish his words, the sword struck towards his head cutting it in half and the next one to his neck beheading him alive.

Melasmo's body fell to the ground. Kris was still not finished, the tanks that defended with their shields and spearmen who was trying to counteract were being rummaged by his nonstop spinning dealing wound all over their body, the range type players, couldn't recklessly fire their spells and throwables because they could cause a friendly fire so they had to wait until the specified area which they could hit.
After Kris saw that one of them was about to die, he would use pierce throat and instantly kill it

After he finishes this, he would struck cables towards the supports on the rear, killing them with one spin.
"Don't panic! Even without a captain, our numbers are still superior to him! Let's just wait until he gets exhausted!" A tank who had blasted by Kris momentum shout and rose the soldiers moral.
"Yes! He is alone! We will be able to kill him!" A soldier said then they began to rush towards him who was massacring the supports.
"Sigh, I'll kill that brat!" The tank stood up watching Kris who was busy dealing with the supports, but then Kris instantly disappeared.
"What!? Where did he go?" The tanks asks even the soldiers were dumbfounded and searched their surroundings.
"Above you!" The archers shout in unison who was waiting for the right moment to shoot.
Argh!" The tank quickly defended with his giant shield but the swords had ignored the defensive shield and instantly pierced over the shield through his skull then through his brain, instantly killing him

"Now!" A player shouted. The range type players began to shoot their throwables wether it was arrows, thorns, shurikens or javelins. They all wanted to kill Kris.
They had only left light wounds and scratches to his body and not one damage had hurt him because of his fast speed, he just continued to fly in different directions aiming first on weak soldiers and players with weak defenses.
The mages began to cast their wide are spells and locking magic.
"Firebolt!"
"Thunder Flash!"
"Magic Missile!"
"Ice Spikes!"
"Wind Slash!"

It was a nonstop casting on spell but all of it just missed Kris and only dealt a miniscule amount of damage slowing his speed for a bit.
The assassins and thiefs used this timing to try and keep up with his speed but when they get too close, Kris would automatically spin, slashing their bodies into chunks of meat.

After clearing all of the assassins, he averted his gaze unto the remaining soldiers.
Their bodies shuddered and their vision went blank after seeing that they were going to become the next processed meat.
Nevertheless, he had killed all of them and now is aiming on the nuisance long-range players.
"Quickly Retreat!" They had tried to retreat but with their slow movement, their efforts were all in vain killing all of them.
All of the players and NPCs present in the area had been helplessly murdered by a player that no one had an idea of his identity.
But one was alive, he didn't join the killing and just hid on a safe place recording the entire situation.
It was non other than Terry who was be shivering nonstop after witnessing this fight.
His viewer count went from 100,000 to ten million!
He couldn't entertain his audience because he was focused on the bloody even, bodies sliced in half, heads flying off and organs scattered on the walls an grounds.
But then a footstep could be heard on a near alleyway.
Kris who was on the roof avert his gaze on to the person who was walking.
After the person appeared on the shadows, he has worn a blue cape and his helmet that was similar to a Spartan.
He didn't wore any type of chest plate that would cover his body. Only a big muscular body and perfect biceps could be seen bulging.
On his lower part, he wore a skirt that seems to have been purposely shredded to show a very brash and brawn look.
His footwear, a sandal that seems to emit flames and every time he takes a step, he would leave traces of scorched shoe prints on the ground.
On hi right hand, a javelin thats the length of his own height.
The overall appearance of it was of a weapon birth by a volcano. The cracks engraved on it glowed like magma and javelin's blade was made with solid lava that was carefully polished brightening a orange color.
There is a ring floating on the the javelin that infinitely spins making flames. This ring is called a trinket and it seems that this guy's trinket was the element of fire.
Without any second thoughts, the guy threw his javelin towards Kris.
The air would set ablaze every time it contacts pointy edge of the javelin.
"Fuck!"
