Kiosha arrived a few days after we reached the mansion. Word also got to us that the slave dealer was rounded up and handed over to Eve and Stren. I shuddered at the thought of whatever torture they were putting him through. Kiosha arrived at the mansion in amazement of being greeted by the moonlight elves. Her expression said everything.
"Look at you Mr. Bigshot." She laughed slapping me on the back.
"Good to see you to Kiosha. Still hurts when Ya do that you know?" I laughed.
She grinned and swept me up in a massive bear hug.
I felt my ribs straining under her strength. She squeezed one more time and put me down.
"Holy hell woman. What do you eat?" I gasped for air as she laughed at me.
Her face was strangely dotted in makeup. Extremely unusual for her. Suddenly she grabbed my arm and fling me over her shoulder.
"Octavia my dear sister lead the way." She grunted.
"Hey, wait a damned minute! When were you guys' sisters? Why do I have a feeling this is a scheme you guys threw together?" I struggled under the woman's grasp.
"I forgot to tell you, dear, Kiosha only agreed if she got to share you with me. Fun fact about Kiosha, She's a half-orc." Octavia giggled.
"You little shits. let me go. now isn't the time for fornication." I managed to wiggle away.
"Am I not pretty enough?" Kiosha asked quietly.
"It's not that Kiosha. Trust me if we didn't have a pressing mission, I'd devour you. However, we must deal with the slavers. Than Death by snu snu." I replied.
"Snu snu? what's that?" She asked.
"Never mind that, Kiosha. we need to go over what we know about the slavers. The fun comes later." I said leading Elisa, Octavia, and Kiosha to my office.
The old chairs had been replaced by nice comfy ones. a large tea table sat between the two couches. I plopped down on one. Kiosha sat as close to me as she could. Her leg touching mine. Her hand was on my thigh.
"You're like an attention-starved puppy you know that?" I asked staring at her.
She only smiled pressing closer.
"I swear the women here are extremely aggressive." I sighed.
Octavia and Kiosha giggled. Elisa only sighed.
"Ok so here's the plan. They have several safe houses that we need to hit all at once. Kiosha you're taking a group of steel grade adventurers to this spot, Octavia you're taking another group to this spot. Elisa will back me up at this spot. Then we all will hit the main one together. Hopefully, we can wipe them all out in one good go." I said pointing to spots on the city map.
"How do we stop them from warning the main headquarters?" Kiosha asked.
"I have the city lord sending out troops to block off any roads to it. As well as some of my more talented moonlight friends sniping from the rooftops. Remember guys these are intelligent people. They will do everything to kill us if they can't do everything in their power to warn their friends. We also need to rescue all and any kidnapped people. I don't care if slavery is legal here send them home." I replied.
Everyone seemed to understand, this time wasn't just fighting mindless monsters. We were taking the lives of evil people; despite that, we would have to deal with the fact that some had families. Noone seemed to be bothered by that, it seemed to be commonplace in this world. We ended the meeting and began moving on our plans. I wore my black gold dress uniform. A large one-handed sword hung from my waist. On my face, I wore a plain-faced mask. Kiosha wore A heavy leather armor set. On her face was a terrifying orc mask. Octavia Wore her Dark red dress with a smiling tragedy mask. Elisa wore light leather armor on her face sat a white glowing mask. We set out at night; everyone was ready to end the horrors these people brought upon the helpless. I moved quickly to the spot I was supposed to be at, Elisa was silently stalking me from the rooftops. setting up an ambush point around the shabby two-story home. I kicked in the door; three guys immediately rushed me. With my current strength hitting them was lethal. Blood erupted from one's face as I sent him flying with the back of my hand. Another tried punching me only to find out, punching me was worse than punching a wall. I pointed my finger at him and whispered "Ignite" a new spell I had learned. His body was consumed by flames in seconds. The third guy was cowering in a corner. Having relieved himself in fear he began begging for his life. I only smiled as I tired his throat open. He gurgled for a few seconds and slumped over. Two more came from upstairs one jumped on my back as another tried to bury his knife into my skin. Unfortunately for him, I was no longer a regular human. I grabbed his wrist and broke it. He screamed as I kicked his knee. His leg snapped in the wrong direction, and he was on the floor screaming. His buddy stared at me as if he was contemplating his life choices.
"It's too late to repent," I said grabbing the man by his throat.
His feet kicked at me as I squeezed. he struggled and clawed as much as he could, but it was too late. I gave one more squeeze and heard a pop. The man's body went limp as I threw him to the ground. I made my way upstairs and saw a bunch of girls chained to the walls of several rooms. I broke their chains and rushed them outside. Several thanked me and rushed outside. Elisa guided them to the guild and began to move towards the headquarters. My hands were covered in blood as we made our way through the streets. Kiosha and Octavia met up with us in front of the building. The squads of adventures behind us. It was time to extinguish the fire they held. I kicked open the door and the adventurers rushed forward. Anywho stood against us fell quickly. We cleared the first floor when a heavy aura filled the room.
"It's a demon! All Adventurers fall back! block the entrance." I growled.
"You are a special boy. I see why Veronica desires you. Sadly, you will fall here for poking your nose in issues that don't pertain to you!" A girly voice echoed throughout the building.
"Show yourself!" I yelled.
"Oh, I think not, I know the fate of those who fought you head on!" The voice taunted me.
My anger rose with each word it spoke.
"I can feel your anger, it tastes so delicious. You, humans, are so easy to manipulate." The voice said.
Suddenly three claw marks slashed through my clothes. Leaving mere scratches.
"Well, that's certainly impressive. How are you not injured? My claws can cut through metal." The voice seemed confused.
"Ignite!" my voice filled the room.
A bright flame shot towards the corner of the room. A Dark shadow darted across the floor to try and avoid it.
"Demon today you will fall. I have been preparing for this for a while. Veronica will have a nasty surprise when I see her."
I snapped my fingers and the fireball split into five smaller ones.
The shadow darted around trying to avoid them, each time narrowly avoiding being lit on fire.
"Come on now, can't we talk about this? You're so ruthless." The voice sounded panicked.
I shook my head
"Remember I'm supposed to die here." I laughed.
Kiosha and Octavia just stared at the show unfolding before them. each time I snapped my fingers the fireballs multiplied. eventually, the shadow seemed to give up and was hit by every single fireball. The screams that came from the burning mass was loud enough it shattered nearby windows. Within seconds it was over, the demon was nothing but smoldering ash. The empire it had built, crumbled before its very eyes. I felt uneasy as if someone was watching us. We finished rescuing the prisoners the demon had taken to sell as slaves. each one happier and happier to be free. With that, the quest to save the moonlight elves and eliminate the slave traders came to a finish.
