Chapter 23: The 'relaxing' walk

"Well even from your memories, I'm the only one with 2 of my eye color changing, maybe it's because I'm a protagonist with the dragon bloodline or something"

"That's so overused" Ace said and Siege nodded

"There have been dragon reincarnates before and you know it, you're the only one. Have you figured out what powers you got from me yet?" Dabria asked

"No, I now I got something, I wish it was a power to summon shadows or the undead to fight for me, seems like that's not it though. I will still Ace the test though"

"Yeah our training of tampering with your flames Siege and me disturbing it with the wind during your training caused you to make your fire very intense and strong" Ace said

"Well we have a week of free time, we can just take a nice relaxing walk" I said calmly "Besides I may have told my parents that we were training, but that's not our main purpose"

"So why are we doing this?" Siege questioned

"He thinks that if this is like any fantasy world, there's bound to be an organization for bad guys that is probably backed by another and etc... You know like in the novels" Dabria answered

"Aren't you a goddess? Won't you know about them?" Ace asked

"I don't know to much about this world, I would have a lot more information if I was over 400, but alas I can't know too much since I am suppose to do the bonding ritual with a reincarnate, but I got a lot of useful information"

"Well we just need to get rid of them for our plans to slack in the future, since me and Albert are here now, it usually means that the organization is already on the move even if they don't know who we are" I said "Besides let's just find somewhere to camp for tonight and think of this as just a relaxing field trip"

"From your past life, none of the field trips were relaxing" Dabria retorted

"Stressful if anything" Siege added

I ignored them and found a place to camp, we had shade, since we haven't left rabbit forest, it wasn't hard to hunt for rabbits for our dinner. I also checked in my family who already arrived in Artia.

"We have a lot of work to do for the next couple of weeks, and for the next couple years before we can relax, we still need even more money even though we are on top of the fast food business here." I said after a while

"You plan on having so much money that you will no longer need to work for the rest of your life, with your nature as a cheapskate, it'll be easier, since you'll require less money" Dabria replied

"We are also looking for another companion to join us, maybe we can find one when we go to Acira" Ace said

"What magic beast should we get?" I asked

"As long as they're loyal and strong, I'll be fine with any" Siege answered

"Albert probably got a dragon right about now"

"Why do you think so?" Dabria asked

"He ask how to get a bond started a few years ago, it's probably with some old dragon he found disguising as one of the soldiers working at the baron's house"

"That does seem plausible"

"He's definitely getting in the top 10 for sure, but we should aim for the top 5, I want the prizes"

After a lot of discussion, we decided to go to sleep.

"Can you give me a lap pillow just to make me sleep better?"

"Still a no" Dabria answered

"I thought you already warmed to me after seeing your memories"

"Did she really?" Ace asked and Siege was already sleeping

"She does, she also enjoys us teasing her"

Dabria just sighed. After I went to sleep, Dabria went back to her realm for her beauty sleep. She then appeared to wake us up the next morning.

As Dabria was accompanying us for our training the next day we spotted a large group of people with carriages pulled by horses, in those carriage are people, all of them were so skinny and pale.

-They are either slaves that are no longer of use or weak people that is about to be sold as slaves, and there are many of those bad guys as well, they definitely have a big group backing them-

-Agreed- the other 3 nodded

-Bring back bad memories-Siege said -I want to kill them-

-We will. Gods aren't allowed to interfere, but when we start to fight, you can at least cut off the reins of the horse right Dabria, can you do that? Because I don't it's in the rules-

-It's not you're right, I can at least help you that much- Dabria answered

-How many do we need alive?- Siege asked

-2 or 3 will do-

-I'll make sure to find if they have any token on them- Ace said

-I can hide my presence pretty well, from the training I received from my parents and Siege, but I'm going to use 'Presence' now and delete my presence, I'm a bit excited, this is my first time using my past abilities.-

-And I'll do the same- Siege said

-Too bad I don't have it, but I will get it when we all get stronger, but at least I learn how to partially hid my presence with your parents hunting training- Ace said

-I'll go back to my realm the moment I cut of all the reins, I don't want mortals to know of my presence- Dabria said

Siege is sneaking from the back with Ace to stop them from running away while I sneaked from the side. I got the bow from my spatial storage, made a light arrow, nocked it and shot one of the thugs.

The arrow went clean through his head. The reins all snapped and the horses who were panicking from seeing the dead man ran from the scene.

"Shit! We're under attacked, GET TO FORMATION" A female voice shouted

-Leave the female boss alive-

-Got it- Ace and Siege said

"Where are they coming from? I don't sense any mana pressure or presence" a guy said

"Yeah I didn't even sensed the arrow, and by the looks of it, it was a magic arrow no way I can't sense that" another guy shouted

-Seems like presence work on my spells as well-

-Well that's good news- Dabria replied

I shot another arrow to the guy close to the boss and killed him.

"TO THE RIGHT" the boss shouted and a few shot arrows and spells

But I already sneaked to the front where I'm about to jump out and surround them

-Why didn't you shoot the boss?- Siege asked

-We're leaving her alive remember?- I answered

"I sense a small presence at the back" the other guy next to the boss shouted

-I got caught- Ace said and walked out

"It's just a small magic beast, but that's not our killer" the boss whispered, but I can hear it with my enhanced hearing

"Well be on a look out, they're close" the boss replied readying her bow

-Let's get in started- Ace said

-Go ahead, but be careful to not hit the carriage- I replied

Ace the shot out fireballs and wind blades.

"KILL THE CAT" the boss commanded

Ace took down some and charged his body with lightning and wind for close combat, when they ran close, Siege came out and stopped using presence. Siege bit and killed a few, he then shot out several water balls to the guys coming after them, it didn't stop them, but whenever Ace comes in contact, they get electrocuted

When their guards were up against Ace and Siege, I jumped out and shot 2 light arrows at both the boss's arm and I put my bow in my spatial storage and pulled out my sword mid air, she then howled in pain.

"GET THE KID" she commanded as the guy next to her healed her

"You guys wouldn't hit a kid who just barely turned 12 would you?" i said

But the guys kept charging in

"Well I guess you guys would, what a bunch of assholes"

I then charged myself with wind and lightning and ran toward them, I slide under the first guy while slashing upwards, the guy fell and the others swung their sword at me, so I made a quick gale ball and made it explode for all of the guys to back away so that I can gain some distance.

I charged against one, as he swung his blade downwards, I sidestep and shot a fireball directly into his face, he fell and the other's charged towards me.

I then directed my magic at the ground and grew a few spiked vines and grab their legs as they ran, they then fell face forward, thanks to the spikes digging into their flesh, they screamed in pain to which I end by stabbing them.

I turned to see the boss glaring at me with rage and the guy next to her stare at me in shock, I made a metal lance midair using magic and directed to the guy who's healing the boss, it went through his chest before he could escape.

"2 days in and I already broke my promise with my parents" I sighed

The boss then shot an arrow directed at me but missed due to her still injured arms.

-Maybe it's my protagonist powers, but she's really bad at her shots-

-FOCUS- Dabria yelled

Her next arrow almost hit me if Dabria didn't warn me, I jumped to the side to avoid it

-Maybe inaccurate shots only happens in fiction, guess the author didn't give me that much of a plot armor-

| Stop breaking the fourth wall and then I might reconsider it, these walls don't fix themselves you know |

-Just please focus on what's in front of you- Dabria pleaded

I then charged towards the boss surrounding my sword with dark magic, the boss also took out her sword and intercepted my blade.

"Not bad kid" she complimented as she backed away for distance

"Thank you"

"The cat and the dog is yours too?"

"Well he's a wolf, but yes"

"Well I'm still gonna kill ya"

She then made a smokescreen using fire and water magic and charged at me while slashing her sword, she was good, but her swings are slow due to her injured arms, I managed to cut off her sword arms and cut off her muscles at the back of her shin, she then fell.

"That should be all of them"

-I left 1 alive- Siege said

-Me too- Ace added

-That's 3, Siege bring them here, Ace find the keys to unlock those cages-

I then found ropes to tie the 3 of them, but I made sure to injure their arms, legs and hand, just to make sure, they can't run or untie the rope. Just to be extra sure, I use vines to tie on top of the rope of extra protection. I also checked their bodies for things and found a key and some token with a red sword crest within the boss's pocket.

"Hands tied and legs tied, we're done"

Ace came back with a few keychains

-I found them-

"Good job" I patted Ace "You 2 watch them and make sure they don't do anything funny"

I then headed to free the prisoners
