Chapter 28

Outside the Inn, a shadowy figure magically appeared.

it was staring intensely at a specific Window on the second floor.

And then it disappeared just as fast as it appeared.

Stone slept for close to 9 hours!

no one knows if he was tired or he died...

He's been sleeping soundlessly from 1 pm after he came from the Hunt until 10 pm.

Although it was night, the Inn was full to the brim.

Most people just finished their work at this time so they came to have some fun, eat, and sleep, which will follow a few hours later.

The rooms on the Inn were as simple as they can be.

A traditional toilet the nightmare of them modern people, A rough wooden bed no one would like to sleep in, and a pretty mediocre space just enough to circle in little and put your belongings.

Although it looks too lacking for people coming from other worlds, It was just fine for people of this world.

'If you have a place to sleep in just shut the fuck up and sleep, People ain't finding it these days' That was the mindset of those people.

Stone left his window open while sleeping, He probably just forgot about it.

Right then the shadowy figure from before appeared in his room looking straight at him.

And the next moment it took out a slightly long sword and slashed towards him.

*Swissh* *Clank*

"I was waiting for you!" Stone jumped out of his bed took his blade and blocked the sword.

The shadowy figure stood in its place for a moment looking stunned and then it vanished just like the Instructor a few days ago... wait it was just yesterday!

Anyways, not the time for that right now.

Stone took his defensive posture waiting for the next strike to come.

'Now!'

*Clank* *Clank* Clank*

Attacks from all directions descended at Stone, He swang his blade as if he was dancing, Waves of air looked like they were coming out of his blade as he kept his eyes and mind focused.

The many skills he got really weren't useless, Each and every one of them paid.

Stone wasn't dumb as the moment the strikes seemed to lessen he dashed towards the window.

going out he jumped to the next building right in front of the Inn but he couldn't, so he fell to the ground got up, and rushed randomly.

People saw him and started gossiping once the news reached the ears of the people that knew him they got out of the Inn to take a look.

Tiana and Isabella included, they were frightened as hell!

The shadowy figure didn't let Stone flee.

It quickly caught up to him and then it stopped it took a strange posture.

Stone didn't just run straight anymore, This technique was unknown to him, and there's a huge chance it will cover a huge area, especially right in front of it.

The shadowy figure took out another sword, and it stuck the swords together, right then it raised its hands to the sky and started to spin the swords.

Stone took a quick look and figured out what it will do, but what he didn't know was the power of the swords, their slicing power, If he knew he can simply hide behind a wall or something.

And right there the Shadowy figure vanished.

It just vanished with the swords in its hands like that.

Stone confused tried to make use of his [Enhanced senses].

'I'm fucked!'

He looked at the sky just to see the Shadowy figure with one hand holding the swords behind it in a throwing motion.

*Ssssswish*

'Fuck, run!'

Stone turned his back and Dashed he just ran and ran and ran.

He even tried to turn around and enter some other alleys, But fuck the swords followed him!

He finally couldn't run anymore as the swords were faster and they caught up to him in a flash.

He spun around and slashed trying to block the swords, In any case, he was fucked why not try?

*Slash*

"ARGHHHH!" Stone cried out in pain.

He just lost a hand, he couldn't even slash! But... The swords didn't stop they flew to the sky made a U-turn and descended even faster taking Stone's other arm.

*Slash*

"ARGHHHHH! ARGH!"

*Slash* *Slash* *Thud*

His two legs were gone too, But the sword still didn't stop they flew up to the sky and came down like a meteor taking Stone's head with it.

*Slash* *Thud*

Stone finally calmed down... He Died!

The swords returned to the shadowy figure who then made them disappear.

And then, another figure appeared.

it was the blond receptionist.

"How was it?" the receptionist said.

"Very fun! It's the first time I enjoyed killing someone this much!" In a deep voice, the shadowy figure replied.

"True, he lasted way longer than any of the other guys. He will probably do a good job later! Resurrect him before he loses a level."

"Roger!" The shadowy figure then made his way towards Stone squatted down.

It raised its hands and chanted some gibberish.

Some black smoke appeared from its hands and made its way towards Stone's depilated body.

some seconds later the separated body parts started to fly and stick with the main body.

And then after around 10 minutes, Stone woke up.

Startled he Jumped back and dashed.

*Fwiish* *Boom*

"Calm down little guy!" The receptionist said as he teleported and kicked Stone to the ground.

"Huh? you're the guy from earlier!" Stone surprised said as he got up unscathed from the ground.

"Just listen here I got something to tell you!"

"First promise you're not going to do anything to me!"

"Don't worry!"

----------------------

"we'll meet again, Young-Stone!"

"yes, Mister Oliver!"

As Oliver and the Shadowy Figure disappeared, Stone just turned around and made his way back to the Inn while thinking about something.

"The Grand Throne War! I see, Very Interesting!" Stone was unfazed by the fact that he just died two minutes ago and dashed back to the Inn.

there he saw the worried Tiana, Isabella, and Kretoss.

He told them not to worry, but they insisted on him telling them.

they got back in ate Dinner and chatted, Stone told them what happened, and then he got back to his room.

"oof, That was pretty exhausting!" Stone's blade started to vibrate as it formed again into its real form.

It was... Stone!
