Leaving 1

9 hours later:

"mmm~" it had been a hour since I had woken up and Sharla seemed to be starting to get up herself. When I looked over to her and saw her forehead I instantly started to blush which seemed to have caught Sharla's attention.

"Hmm~? Are you ok? Do I have something on my face?"

"N-no!? Nothing at all!"

"Ok?" she said with a hint of confusion.

Thankfully she seems a little air-headed and didn't probe any further. After that we got dressed and went down stairs to eat some breakfast. While eating the toast and eggs I had ordered I went into deep thought about what happened last night. Other than me kissing Sharla, I had figured out what the skill points were.

Status points:

(Status points or stat points are used to increase base stats. Can obtain by killing an enemy or evolving.

Points gained per kill: 3

Points gained per evolve: 10)

After that I got a message reading, "To use stat points tap on them." After tapping on the words 'skill points' weird symbols appeared next to the words, strength, agility, perception, etc. When I tapped on the symbol (+), the number next to 'strength increased by one and I could feel myself get stronger. After putting one in each I found that when I put one in vitality my 'hp' increased. When I put one in intelligence my 'mp' increased. For agility it increased stamina and when I put one in perception it seemed my senses got better. With wisdom it also raised my 'mp' but not as much as intelligence. When I put one in endurance no noticeable change happened.

After putting the rest of the stat points in my status looked like this.

I'm taken out of my trance by the feeling of someone watching us. I immediately turn my head and see Thomas, the inns owner, staring at us. I jump out of my seat and was about to yell 'dirty bastard' at him when I remembered that it was early in the morning and there were people around.

I put on one of my nicest smiles before doing a slight bow and apology to everyone in the room.

"What happened?" Sharla asked

"It was nothing." I grumbled

"Ok~, but if you need to talk I'm always here."

After thinking about it for a second I refused the offer and instead told Sharla about my findings last night.

...

We had just arrived in front of the adventurers guild when we heard, "Hey little ladies how about you come with us for some some fun?"

"No thank you." I responded with a slight cringe.

"Oh come on don't be like that, it'll be so much fun."

I sighed thinking about all of the times I saw such a scene go down. It was truly a wonder how many dimwits and dumbasses didn't get the memo saying that no matter how many women you approach the way this gang of three did will always get you rejected. I'm sure their ancestors are writhing in their graves right about now. I quickly pulled out my dagger and put it up to his neck, "Back OFF, buddy."

He recoiled almost immediately and dashed off spouting one of the most cliché lines ever, "You'll regret this!"

"Oh~, I'm sure I will~!" I shouted back at him

Over to my right deep chuckles could be heard coming from an older looking man with a scar running down the left side of his face.

"What's so funny, old man?"

"Oh nothing, little lady."

Hearing the words 'little lady' come out of his mouth strangely made me even more pissed than I already had been.

"Let's go." I said to Sharla while leading her into the guild. When inside we crossed the room over to the counter to register.

"How may I help you today?" a receptionist said with one of the most forced smiles I've ever seen.

"We'd like to register" I said.

"Please follow me over here."

After saying that she led us into a room with a desk and two chairs sitting in front of it.

The first things did was get new registration papers. The reason being instead of being born in an apothecary like a normal person I was born in a back alley. Having no money and no help my mother had me in a back alley. After I was born she brought me to an old man she had been friends with for a very long time. Shortly after giving me to the old man she collapsed and died from blood loss. In Sharla's case she was sold into slavery in witch her papers were no longer needed. So they were torn up and burned right in front of her by the rich man to show her that she had lost her freedom and to show she was no longer a human.

...

We had just left the guild and were heading out to buy some necessities for the road. The first thing on our list was a horse to travel around on. Out of the pure need to get out of town we decided to take a shortcut through an alley to the stables where we could purchase a horse.

"Hey~ there little girls. It's so nice to see you again."

I cursed myself for being so stupid. In front of us was what I assumed to be the leader of the gang from earlier. Behind him was the smaller looking of two of his lackeys. I wouldn't say he was small either, he was just shorter than the other one.

Suddenly a realization came to me. I slowly turned around only to find the hulking mass of useless meat that was the third member of the gang.

"Well shit." I said aloud

Sharla who had stood frozen so far suddenly clung to my arm and started to shake.

"Shar, I'm going to need you to take this." I said while handing her the shabby looking dagger I had looted from the previous battle. After handing her the dagger I took out the short sword I had also looted from one of the two rich mans lackeys.

The leader was slightly taken aback by the sudden appearance of the weapons but soon enough an amused looking grin was plastered on his face.

"Oh~, I'm so~ scared." he said in a sarcastic tone.

3...2...1... as soon as I finished counting I rushed at the one behind us. He was caught off guard by how fast I was but soon regained his composure and unsheathed his own sword. He had managed to parry my attack but I was to quick with my dagger and planted it right in his knee.

He howled in pain as I proceeded to chop at the hand that he had his sword in. He noticed my objective and moved his hand just barely out of the way.

Before he could recover I twisted the dagger that was still lodged in his knee, again he howled in pain. This time I swung the short sword and plunged it right into his belly. As he opened his mouth to scream. I pulled the dagger out of his knee and shoved it deep into his throat. A few seconds passed and he started to choke on his own blood. Behind me no sound could be heard.

I slowly turned around to see all three including Sharla watch on in silence.

Note: hey guys I know this wasn't my best chapter yet but I hope you enjoyed it anyway. Now let's answer a quick question that nobody asked: is there constantly going to be killing?

No, there isn't. In fact I didn't plan on putting that last part at the end in but I did it anyway. Hopefully that answered your question to a satisfactory degree.

Anyway just in case you don't read the 'authors thoughts' section instead of doing singular chapter on Wednesday and Saturday I'm going to release 4-5 chapters at the end of the next week.

Sorry for the long note. NOW, and I mean NOW, STAY HEALTHY, have a good evening and thank you for reading ;)'

Oh before we leave I noticed some mistakes in the status that I fixed.
