Day 352..
I woke up by the rumbling sounds of the ground
Which i immediately used searched magic
Our location south of Elgharest ruins
Too far from any kingdom jurisdictions
So where's that sounds coming from, who are making those rumbling ground with a little bit vibration.
I used magic searched
300 individual registered in my field vision
I suddenly wake up Alisha, not this again! i accidentally push her cup. I didn't do it on purpose i swear. She has a blank reaction before that palm of her slap my cheeks..
I apologized after..
As usual she forgave me too fast and told me that..
" You should asked me first if you want it hmpp"
I was shocked with her word's..
But we're on the tight situation again i told her..
Now i made a small hole to visualize the outside scenario..
What are they!!
Alisha trying to create a hole but failed so she push me to take over the hole i made..
She fall from her surprised trembling her knees..
" D.. demon's "
Demon's!
I looked at the hole that she abandoned, 6 different appearance approaching our position.. we might get caught to it as the snow is melting while they we're marching towards..
What should i do now..
If we move now we might get spotted, if we don't move and hid ourselves in this tent out of earth, we might get caught in their marching to where!!
Another group that behind them, too many about a thousand now register in my field vision..
Ohh crap..
Our survival lies in preemptive attack, first and foremost they're the reason why i crossed that fissure mountain, to end the demon Lord of the fallen..
They were marching and halted when an unknown type of magic perished the other side of marching groups.. followed by savage combat fighting style with assassin's cloth armed with MBL sword..
That magic comes from my DH gun, anything that caught in it totally returned to ashes..
It takes time to cooled down my Hot DH gun because of maxed out fire element i used as ammunition.. so i switched to wind element and frost it a little bit that takes 5 seconds cooling time.. 5 second is enough to slaughter the first marching group, launching multiple target with my assassination skill..
And finally cooling down my DH gun..
Take this..
Full burst wind bullet.. that take halves of my mana twice used as large scale element as ammo to my DH gun..
Instantly thousands have perished because of that..
No room for retaliation as i ambushed them so fast..
Demon body piled everywhere as i noticed in my field vision.. a much larger group behind the two set of small groups of demon.. they're moving to raid as i navigate their point of direction.. they're moving towards the fissure mountain lowest point.. Abhaya kingdom.. a yearly raid huh, i heard it before.. but i don't have a clue that I'd be the one to confronted them by this year's fallen demon's raid..
I'm all fired up now.. but i felt halve of my mana used for two set of full burst element.. i remember using wind bullet as low mana cost than using full burst wind bullet..
Okay switch to wind bullet..
I test the results and fire a single shot..
Enough to dig a hole in one fallen demon..
After that followed by rapid fire of wind bullet..
Back to my previous life training.
After graduated as a cadet officer of Philippine military academy, i trained myself and enrolled as a ranger and sniper class as well.. i have 98 percentage of hiting enemies within the distance of 2 kilometers with my Barret sniper rifle..
To think precision is important, that was if i used ordinary hand gun, this hand gun is different.. with locking target reaction to mana user it has a hundred percentage of hitting enemies even if i was blindfolded..
I saw how the back Force's withdrawal.. thank God theyre falling back.. because i used 90 percent of my mana and getting me more exhausted.. as i landed on the ground after i disabled my assassination skill.. there was an advantage of this skill, you can stop midair without launching to a target and disabling it will caused you to fall to the ground..
Thanks for my deeper studying how magic works basically.. i always keep the impression of combination skill's what are the formal and informal situation differ to usage and outcome..
By inserting terror while they're facing a single foe without retaliation, i forced them to retreat as per my expectations..
If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
Now, examination of demon corpses is important..
I noticed one of the demon still gasping for his life..
With the appearance of long ears similar to elven races but much wider about two centimeter with black hairs and two small horn around 2 inches with normal eyes like a human just the color is red.. and it has a height of around 6 feet much higher than me by half feet, armored with iron plate that partially pierced by my wind bullet but enough to penetrate the body.. which not fatal i guess.. i remember he was taken the last shot of my wind bullet..
So he survived then..
He said words, luckily i was in the middle of my learning about demon language, here's what he said..
" Why, why, we are looking for you! Why do this to your kind"
that's all i understand, other words he mentioned is much harder to understand.. which i ended his suffering with a frontal strikes of my MBL sword that pierced his heart, merciful ways to end the struggling enemy..
Really, why i don't feel that way.. why i felt some sympathy just now..
Am i that soft..
As i examine his body, confirmed!! This are red color core's which present only at monster body.. that makes me think, i am half demon too maybe i have that core too inside me..
I concentrate myself to find clue and realized i have the same core but not normal core.. a white tainted dark purple glowing color's 5 times the sized of that demon core.. hey!! I looked at the direction of our tent..
Alisha might know something..
I walked towards our tent out of earth..
She looked so shocked and afraid of me.. why!!
" Don't be afraid, it was me! Wolf Fang.."
Why she was afraid to me.. crawling backwards in the ground with her hands trembling and that fear reactions of her makes me worry too much..
" Don't go near me demon.. please go away.."
She called me demon.. and she was afraid of me, the one i protected was totally feel terrified towards me.
As i move closer she cast her fire magic unto me! Luckily i Dodge it..
Now i wrapped her in my arms and said this
" It's okay, im still me dont be afraid please Alisha.. i was also afraid why you acting like this, tell me why you're afraid.."
She responded and she cried like a baby while wrapping her arms to me..
I get this feeling i need to know why she felt afraid and act that way..
She told me that while i was fighting my body glow's like a demon Lord in some ancient books she's already readed that describes of the demon Lord power.. i told her that before.. i am half human and half demon so that Aura is just for show.. i was still human in heart and in mind.. and also i was called a human prodigy and a hero you mentioned that i was immune in faery poison right..
" Right.."
" So how can a hero became a Demon Lord at once?"
" Yeah i guess so.. but a hero with demon blood is not appropriate i guess.."
" Did you know that there is a hero that has a demon blood too.."
" Nope, nobody tells that in historical books that i read, why? is there something i must know!"
" I mentioned you my teacher in achieving Divine class priest when i was only 5 months old right.."
" Yes.. why?"
" Her name was Erina, Erina Abhaya Wolfrit my auntie i guess! She told me about the heroes while the King information about a heroes who's half blooded demon and a human.. the founder of Abhaya kingdom King Admun I Andre Abhaya or so called Andre the fearless.. "
" I know he was a hero but i don't know he was also carrying demons blood.. why that very important information remain hidden 400 years ago? Why hide something like that."
" Yeah, i also don't have any clue why!!"
" That's strange.."
" Wait there's something more I'd like to asked.."
" What is that!!"
" I just confirmed myself, i have a core inside my body which have a color of white tainted by dark purple color that five times the size of normal cores.. are everyone has core inside every living creatures humans demi humans or demons??"
" Yes.. why you didn't know!"
" Eh hahaha.. maybe I'm just the one who doesn't know it exactly.."
To think about it, head priestess Audrey Abhaya Dakshi perform a purification magic to purify my body, a kind of color coming out of my body.. that exposed my truest nature.. and that's the main reason why i got exiled.. i can't blame them, they hated the demon's as well, and I'm the demon myself too, with just bloody racial discrimination occurs out of hand..
Sigh..
" Is it true that your core's is five times larger than the normal core's and it's glowing!"
" Yes.. you know the answers!! Just tell me now.."
" No, i don't know about the difference between core sizes in races.."
" Sigh.."
" But maybe in norlangarthe i told you before about that mage who has a better understanding about almost everything.."
" Really!! Then we're wasting time then.. wait, can i ask you one more thing.. why afraid of me a moment ago!!"
" Because of your expressions, you're always unreadable, i don't know if you're a friend or a foe because of that.. thats why I'm scared of you master.. im really sorry.. it will never happened again.."
Ehh.. by just that, ohh my.. how can i supposed to reconstruct my facial expressions that almost half of my living day's get used to it..
" About that!! Well how about this smile!!"
" You look just like a smiling dog.."
" How about this.."
" A wide smiling dog.. hahaha"
" Grossed.. okay from now on while teaching me where i left at demon language can you help me with my facial expression as well.."
" Ofcourse master "
" Thanks, okay now were getting late of our schedule.. to Norlangarthe.."
We ate together, sleep together, travel together..
I served as her knight in shining armor while traveling South..
I can enable and disabled my chameleon cloak ability..
I tried way's to make our travel so fast.. eliminating monster whenever we feel hungry or setting up perimeter whenever we rest for a while..
Many ruin's and dungeons inhabited by different monster classes fighting each other, eating each other.. thats the way of the monster..
I figured out way's to fasten up our travel..
While carrying her in my back i used wind movements and used assassination skill in every monster caught in my field vision to travel fast across Norlangarthe borderlands..
At last after 30 days of travel.. we finally made it here.. and aslo i master demon language langgraphil.
It's day 382..
Norlangarthe Borderlands..
A highly secured Gates with walls around 40 feet tall and 2 meters thickness armed with large magazine of repeating crossbow with distance in the top of the formidable defense around 2 meter distancing..
Whooaaa.. just like the historical weapons used in medieval periods in my previous world.. i was getting more excited and forgetting the basics as walked towards the gate..
One arrow strikes in front of my way and i stop walking while carrying Alisha in my back..
Wait something was wrong.. i think were not welcome here..
I carefully lowered down Alisha right behind my back and raised my hands as a sign of surrender.. Alisha emitate my actions..
The top of the gate showed how high tight the defense, human Archer's position themselves armed with long bows and arrows.. ohh humans in demon land's, i thought no humans live here..
Before one human appears, probably the high ranked officer from the small gate next to the large one, move towards us and stopped from a safe distance..
" We have a visitor from!! Why are you here!! "
He has a normal reactions greetings
I look at Alisha and signal her to do the negotiation..
" I'm Alisha Taluh a slave mage from Aredhel Kingdom"
She show's her slave Crest while talking..
" Oh you're luthien slave's, how about that fellow, whats your name.."
Ohh my.. Luthien is really famous here..
" I'm Wolf Fang from leaf land and an adventurer from Ashfall kingdom.."
" Really.. ahahahaha.. how pathetic i almost believe in you"
Is there something wrong with that leaf land i mentioned!
he raised his hand if that hand falls down we will be caught in ranged by thousand arrows..
" Wait i have a proof here!"
I immediately snap the adventurer guild card gave to me by Badusko Rhunya Fulra.. sigh were safe he stopped his hand.. thanks mother, if i haven't save you that day and crossed you from Tallulah great forest, maybe that will change the situation..
" Hand over that card to that slaves next to you and showed me here, i just need to verify it.."
" Okay.."
I handed the guild card to Alisha, but i was angry while he was calling her a slave..
" Pardon me for my rude actions, you know! No visitors in ages so it's kinda wierd someone from the otherside move here all the way.. pardon me for late introduction im Aldamere Beezle Briar would you mind following me now.."
" Thank you.."
" No thanks, but thanks.. hahaha"
Thats weird, a moment ago he posed us a threat now he's acting a little more friendly..
As we entered in the small gate next to the larger one..
" Just a little inspection.."
" Okay.."
I hand over my backpack and a spare backpack for inspection..
After we enter.. i wrapped my MBL sword along with my DH gun with my Chameleon cloak while enable it's invisible ability in my back..
" Is there something wrong?"
" You have 5 dog tags!!"
" It's from my fallen comrade.."
I can't find any good reason so i lied with a poker face..
" Well, that sounds you have a hard travel all the way here.."
" Yeah i guess so. Haha.."
" Yeah.. you have many monster core's.. i bet you wanted it to be sold.. i will buy it 3 gold coin each.."
Wait.. i have 6 thousand monster core's equivalent to 3 gold coin each.. thats abruptly 18,000 gold coins.. whooaaa.. too much i guess.. i saw how Alisha was surprised too.. wait if thats the Case she will live a decent life with this and finally taken out that slave Crest of her..
" Ahhh.."
" Wait Wolf fang right, don't sell that to him! Markus, why giving him low price"
" Because it's too many i just tried to have a discount that's all.."
Ahh the inspector's name is Markus.. the point is he wanted to exploit the price..
" Mr Markus right!! I'm Wolf fang pardon me for late introduction"
" No, it's fine.."
" May i know how much the right price encircling the market now??"
" If i told you would you still sell that to me?"
" That depends"
" More like a gambling, trying is better than do nothing.. well around 10 gold coin each, what do you say!"
" Wolf fang, don't listen to him!"
" It's okay mr Aldamere.. I'll sell you every core's with 3 gold coin each, in return i want information in this land"
" Wait that's too much!! I won't buy it.."
" Well, no deal then can we go mr Markus!!"
" Wait.. okay, what kind of information do you need!!"
Later I'll tell you..
After our sealed transaction witnesses by North gate defense guard Aldamere..
We finally got a Visa entering Norlangarthe borderlands..
It's almost getting sundown and Markus paid me 10 percent only because that was the only gold available in his bag.. but i trust him because we have a witness so it's okay..
And there is a village nearby northern gate..
Belva village..
And there is an inn too.. perfect spot for cleaning myself and resting too..
I rented two room's! Clean myself and move down and order a special menu of the inn.. right before Alisha finished cleaning herself and walking down the stairs..
Gulp..
She's like a goddess.. that slim clothing buried the skin extension in her cup.. but still i can't find myself feel harder about it.. yeah, i guess i was born impotent.. damn it
We eat our dinner that's too delicious.. the bread is to soft and the meat is too tenderly grilled like a thousand beating before cooked..
And the taste of the wine caressing my throat.. so perfect combination
After eating i paid 4 gold coins for two orders.. thats one and a half monster core's.. alright.. that's too easy life in here i guess..
Time to sleep.. i talked to her, tommorow we will see the mage she mentioned, and the only reason why we're here.. she nodded, that ends our conversation and move to our respective rooms..
I said goodnight and she responded to it too...
What a tough day is it..
Guess tommorow again..
Goodnight..
