After Wurkus, spoke with his new group, they decided to go back to the forest and find a place where they could build a place that would eventually evolve into a village.
When Wurkus group arrived at the gate, Rafael saw them and greets Wurkus.
Rafael: So you decided to buy all of them. That's good, but I want to know what you would do with them. Don't get me wrong, I just want to know why would you buy 15 fighters when you just arrived in the town?
Wurkus: I hate slavery, but I can't just go nuts and kill people for that. So I decided to free the slaves by buying them.
Rafael: That's really noble for a Beastman, heck even for us humans, but Alexander would like that. He'll see you as a threat and will attack you.
While Wurkus and Rafael spoke, they heard a voice that was filled with anger.
???: Of course, I'll see them as a threat. In this town, we have only fifty fighters while I'm the only warrior and as everyone knows,beastmen are stronger than humans, but we have the numbers to compensate for that.
Wurkus: I presume you are Alexander right?
Alexander: That's my name. I demand you to surrender and become a slave or you'll face my wrath.
Wurkus looked at him and you could see Wurkus face shows his thoughts: This guy is an idiot.
Wurkus: I don't want to fight, I didn't do anything, heck I didn't even fight anyone.
Alexander: The name Pano rings a bell? He is my man, but you made him fear you more than he respects me. That's a sign of attack for me and that's enough for me to hunt you and your slave group.
When he heard Alexander's words, Wurkus, decided that he would go all in and teach this cliché guy some respect.
Wurkus: Come at me then, but if you try to hurt my people, your whole town will face my power.
Alexander was completely blinded by rage when he heard Wurkus words and rushed at him trying to slice is head.
Wurkus expected that outcome and raised his spear. When the sword and spear meet each other, Alexander's attack was easily deflected by Wurkus and that made Alexander vulnerable.
Wurkus didn't even think for a moment, he strikes Alexander with his spear piercing Alexander's right leg.
When he felt the pain in his leg Alexander knew that he fucked up big time today and that could cost him his life.
While the two of them were fighting, ahem, Wurkus beat the shit out of Alexander, Alexander men were supposed to attack Wurkus group, but they just stood and looked at their leader being trashed by a Beastman. They were terrified and didn't want to face Wurkus wrath if the attack his group.
Somewhere close to the gate.
???: Carl would you like me to stop this fight?
Carl: No, let him beat my brother, he grew too greedy and confident in his power. This Wurkus is a good thing for us and as he said he didn't fight or injured anyone until my stupid brother of mine attacked him. Now tell me, Ivan, why should I help a man like Alexander? Isn't better for our town to find a new source of trading? That has money and is eager to trade?
Ivan: Of course, but even as a good for nothing he's your brother.
Carl: Ok, stop the fight, but tell Wurkus that I want to meet him. He seems like an interesting person.
As Wurkus beat Alexander until he didn't felt his hands from the fact that he punched every inch of Alexander's body. When he pierce Alexander's leg, Wurkus throw his spear to Carl to keep it, while he decided to beat Alexander the old way, but five minutes later a huge bald man appeared near them and from the energy the man emitted, Wurkus could felt that this newcomer was a warrior and one that was a strong as him. He stops beating Alexander and looked at the man.
Wurkus: Anyone else?
Ivan: Congratulations, Wurkus, you just made Carl Von Jun happy. He wants to meet you, as for this good for nothing, let his men take care of him. Your people can rest here. Rafael takes care of them and doesn't let any of these buffoons do anything to them.
Rafael nodded at Ivan's words.
Inside Carl's office.
Carl: Wurkus how was your day in town?
Wurkus: Full of idiots trying to stop me and two of them were really eager for a beating.
Carl: I'm sorry for my brother and his band of buffoons. The reason I wanted to meet you is really simple. You are interesting and I like people that are interesting.
Wurkus: I don't swing that way sorry.
Carl was stunned by Wurkus words, while Ivan was rolling on the ground while laughing.
Carl: Ahem, I didn't mean that I was referring that I like to have friends that are interesting and some muscle brain like my brother.
Wurkus: Phew, I start thinking that you like men and us for some fetish of yours. Well, all things aside why would you want me as your friend? I'm a beastman as you can see and from what I heard you two made slavery legal in your town, while the baron doesn't like it.
Ivan was still on the floor with tears flowing down on his face from that much laughing.
Carl:…Ok, ok it was my brother's idea and our father approve it. I didn't take part in this madness.
Wurkus: If you say so.I'm sorry, but I need to go. My people are waiting for me and I need to do something.
Carl: You want to find a place for a village right?
Wurkus: Congratulations you figured it .now what would you do? Force me to pay taxes? Demand something from me?
Carl: Neh, I just want to know why? Why are you doing it?
Wurkus: I'm a man that dislikes slavery and I want to free them, but I don't want to create a bloodbath for this reason and creating a village for slaves is the only acceptable way of freeing them. I can't make them forgive you, but I can make them feel free.
Carl: That's a noble way of saving slaves and one that doesn't make you an enemy of slavers and the rest of extremists.
Wurkus: Welcome to my world.
Carl: But will swear that you would attack us with your power?
Wurkus: I can't do that, because you know that some people are idiots and would try to hurt us right?
Carl: I know, but I want to know if you would attack us without a motive.
Wurkus: I swear on my name that I, Wurkus would never lead my people in a fight without a motive.
Carl: That's good enough for me. Now Wurkus, I wouldn't keep you busy anymore. The next you visit let's go drinking, my treat of course.
Wurkus: I'm in. I want to try human alcohol after all.
