Chapter 7

*Back to a few minutes ago, before the NightRaven began his slaughter.

{1st Person Pov}

When I step into this camp area, I knew something was missing.

I Saw a group of 5 people dragging some worn out woman somewhere with a rope.

Clearly this 5 people weren't a good person, as I Saw some of the women struggling in their hand, seemingly wanting to escape.

Hell, even there is some small children mixed in there, Only idiot would think everything were fine and all.

Just like what I fear in the beginning, it seems this world was more like dark fantasy world rather than beutiful nonsense fairytale world.

In this world, humans life seems worth not much than a grass.

I could see that most these women seems to have just met their misery, and losing something important in their life.

"That vacant eyes... I know it too well.. Its the eyes of someone who already gave up.. Did these stinky group of men did something to them before? Or in a worse case... Pillagging and slavery?"

Moving my eyes at the wagon not far, I saw a piled up random things, from food to some stuff which had a considerable value made from metal in there.

But judging by the crude appearance of the stuff that was piled up within the worn out wagon, I knew these group of beast just pillaging a poor village.

When I knew something terrible just happened to these poor women, an uncomforale feeling gradually grow in my heart.

Actually, I never consider myself as a saint, but any normal human with a bit of conscience, surely will feel uncomfortable, seeing human-being slaving each others just for a petty reason such as profit.

There are alot of ways to earn riches, but these bunchs of savages choosing the easy and cruel way by picking up someone weaker than them as a things.

All this thought keep appearing within my mind, and somewhat made me sudder in rage.

Unknowing to me, the hand I used to hold my blade gradually became stronger, as a vein Popping out slowly.

"Calm... I need to be calm. I have to observe the situation and deal it accordingly.."

While giving myself a conviction, I didn't realize the blue Eyes I had right now gradually become cold.

So cold that a hint of light couldn't enter my retina.

Controlling my breathing, I erased my sense of existence to the limit, and blend with the environment to continue observe the situation.

Using my appraisal, I gaze at the group of beast like a man who seems become rowdy after sering the woman five people dragged to them, one by one.

[Human A] BR: 200

[Human B] BR : 400

[Human C] BR : 600

. ...

.. BR : 350

...

. BR : 200

I don't waste my time to read their description, as they headcount numbered more than 50.

So with this in mind, I only checked their BR and found these people actually very weak.

The strongest among them only had 600 BR, and I also pitifully found only 4 of them.

The rest? I don't think they worth something in my eyes.

Maybe if it was goblin or monster I will think about their headcounts into consideration.

But I am an Assassin, a class that design to kill people, and specialized in PVP.

And with the detailed killing technique that Midnight bestowed to me, I can confidently said that these number of people are not a challenge if I want to kill them by my own.

Thats if we not count that lecherous Boss into equation.

[Human Mage A] BR : 2000

A leader of small Dark guild. A criminal wanted by The Merchant Alliance Federation.

"Dark Guild? What is that? Is it some part of adventure guilds or something?"

My knowledge about this world is very limited. So I just gloss it over for the time being, and focus on strategy I will use in this tricky situation.

But all this consideration was thrownback to the ground when I saw one of disgusting guy eyeing a small silver Haired children who hide within her mother embrace, with a lustful eyes.

Slashh!!!

My hand which still grabbing the chained Sickle suddenly moved on its own, swing the chained Sickle precisely to the man necks like reaping a weed, beheaded him easily.

Thud~

When I Saw the head of the guy fallen to the ground, a strong killing intent and rage began overwhelming my heart as a sense of reason started to left me.

I can feel thetime around me suddenly running slower, and I can see the woman, children and the beast in human skins seems moving very slowly in my vision.

As if blinded by a strong emotion, I unconsciously left my stealth state, and let my presence to be seen by all people here.

"Here I thought I finally met people... Turned out its just a bunch of beast in human skin... "

Trying to take these scum attention into myself, I gaze at the scum human one by one, creating some pressure to them, prevent them to act restlessly in desperation, also to avoid creating victim to the poor women here.

I knew this situation will not turn this troublesome if I decided to take my time and approached it slowly, strategize my every move for the best possibly fighting condition.

But the milk already spilled, so I had to use anything that I could to deal with the situation here.

'First of all, let take the leader out of the brawl, this guy is the only factor who can change the battle tide here'

Without further ado, I dash into his way, lifting my blade and ready to kill him as fast as possible.

"How dare you underestimate me boy!!!"

Looking at me who retarded him as a small fry, the boss became furious and jumping back trying to create some distance.

He began to take something like wand from inside of his worn out robe, and began to mumble.

I know the situation will be bad if I let him finish his mumble like chant, so with my weeks of tempered battle sense, I disrubt him by throwing my Sickle, intent to Slash his vein from the distance!

CrasaSasSak!!!

!!!

"Chained Sickle?!!! Who the hell are you?!!"

Swift and slick, just like a lunging thunder, the Sickle moving in Arch, leaving a dark shadowy trail behind!

Clash!!

Grunt*

The Boss had his chanting interupted in return of his hand who just got slashed and almost separated.

If he decided to ignore it, maybe he will lose his hand right now.

'Chance!'

When I see the boss grunting in Pain, I know my chance have come, without hesitation, I add more strength on my feet, and begin to perform the basic Assassin skill

[Blood Pierce]!

With a blur, my body suddenly vanished, leaving numbers of after image to the spectator.

When I moved at a lightning speed, I found myself in bullet time state, where I can feel the time running slower like a slow motion video.

In this state, my brain capacity began to work at maximum speed, and began draining lots of energy from my body.

If it was the normal me who still hadn't his training done, maybe I will be death from the exhaustion when performing this skill for 10 second.

But as now, with my 2000+ BR, I could perform it just fine.

'Concentrate! This body is not my normal human body anymore, feel and control the thunder element in the environtment... What?! Why there're so little elemental energy in this world unlike the Void space?!!

Forget it, now its not the time to think about this!!'

'Concentrate!!'

Crackle!

As I began to control the thunder energy nearby, my hand who was holding the blade started to shine with bluish thunder color.

A small lightning began to form and swam around my hand, and buff my already fast speed to become faster!

Looking at the stunned Boss, I know he will be done for!

I could see his finger tremble, trying to move by instinct alone.

'But its useless! If you are a knight, maybe you can survive this, too bad thought, your class is mage. The glass cannon is the most favorite dish for Assassin!'

Before everyone could react, I appeared behind the Boss back, and thrust my blade swiftly, dealing a heavy blow toward his chest!

"No!! Spa-"

Blast!!!!

Drazzle*

Crackle*

Thus, a beutiful red flower bloom from his chest, shining under the red sky, painted a beautiful picture of death that made anyone who looked at it mesmerised but also terrified!

""BOSS!!!""

Coming back from their sense, the bunch of ragtags animals began Howling in desperation, looking at their leader they depend on had a big cooked hole on his chest.

Their instinct suddenly screamed and made their body tremble, they want to escape, but all of sudden, the atmosphere in their area became very heavy, as a cold chilling sensation drown their body whole, and freezing them.

Turning their head to find the source, they found my cold eyes gazing at them like a death reaper who was inpatient to harvest their life!
