I look around me as I see far away only grass fields and small hills with new strange-looking animals jumping around full of life.
*This place looks very relaxing.* I rub my chin as I start walking around the open area.
I start running which startled me from the speed my body is having. My speed is not average. I could easily win any running contest in my old world. It feels amazing to have such a good and strong body. I jump 6 meters into the air which feels weird compared to my fat body that I used to have. I feel like a bird, free.
I continue moving towards an unknown location with swift speed until I hear sword clashing. I sneak closer towards the sound until I am on top of a small hill. I look down as I see the beautiful golden carriage stopped. The carriage is surrounded by people who resemble typical bandits which are being guarded by soldiers in silver armor.
Kathrina's perspective:
"Kathrina RUN!"
a soldier shouts as He gets stabbed into the stomach. A 17-year old girl runs out of the carriage and falls on to the road. The girl is likely a noble from her expensive-looking dress and the beautiful jewel in her neck.
"Guys! Today we will have a feast! Haha...ha?"
The bandit looks at his friend's head which bursts into million pieces.
Black shadow surrounds the area, deep low creepy laugh can be heard from the shadow which creeps even closer towards the target.
*Oh looks like a young princess is in a need of help am I correct?*
The Bandit leader's face gets nervous from the deep voice from abyss haunting around his ear.
"S-SHOW YOURSEL!-" before he could finish his sentence his face was blasted open.
the bandits look at their leaders head on the ground in pieces.
D-DEATH GOD! Bandits shout.
*No... What I am is much worse than the Death god.
*I.*
*Am.*
*Reaper.*
They see my body coming from the shadow as they gaze my skull masked face and my black hood. The Kathrina looks terrified from my appearance.
Well, time to finish what I started. I walk closer towards the bandit.
"Don't be scared!"
One bandit shouts as he swings at me with his sword.
"Eh?"
The sword cuts right through like I was made of air leaving the slash mark on my body with a dark shadow.
The bandit falls forward as he looks at me in horror, putting their morality even more down.
"Monster..."
*No. Worse.*
The dark mist spread around the bandits.
*Death blossom.*
In a couple of seconds, every bandit inside my mist is getting fired at astonishing speed. This was Reaper's special move that made him the best character. The feeling of destroying the whole enemy team surrounded by the Hellfire bullet and darkness made the most satisfaction.

Kathrina puts her hands on her ears to cover the sound of the bullets flying. She closes her eyes quickly and is afraid to open them again. The sound of gunfire starts to calm as the sound stops.
Katherina slowly opens her eyes and he sees this Black-hooded man looking at him straight into the eyes in close range. She is on the ground and looking the skull-faced man that is standing. Powerless as she feels she swallows her saliva from his dry mouth as she tries to thank this man but gets cut off by this man.
*Where can I find the town?* The voice is like the devil whispering into her ear.
After swallowing her dry saliva she stutters as she speaks.
T-thank you for saving me! Th-the town is in that direction. If you follow this road you will arrive in Miralda.
*Hmm... Thank you, princess.* the man says as she turns into a shadow and disappears from the spot he was.
"Wai-" before she could say anything to him the man disappeared like he never would have been here.
The reinforcement hears that bandits attacked a noble carriage through a magic device that alarms nearby units. The nobles and Royal have a special alarm bell inside the carriage that makes it the top priority to be taken care of.
Instantly 70 soldiers come to the scene with horses.
"Young miss! a maid shouts as she comes closer with the knights."
She runs faster than anything towards the Kathrina and pulls her up from the ground.
Are you okay Young miss! Are you hurt anywhere?!
"Helen... I'm fine."
"Thank god!"
She has tears on her face.
Knight looks at the gore scene where bandits bodies are like paste meat on the ground.
What happened here? Knight's leader looks at this scene with his eyes full of confusion.
"Let Young miss explain it later! We need to escort her back to the Miralda!"
Yes! The soldiers slam their fist into their chest and proceed to prepare a carriage to the trip.
"Helen... We need to search for a person immediately when we come back."
Yes! Say the name and I will send our spies into action!
"R-Reaper." Kathrina stutters as she tries to calm her heart from the tragic scene she witnessed.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Edward perspective:
I have no idea why I helped that. I mean, of course, I know why I helped because I looked COOL!
*Thank you princess.*
Oh, that was so epic! Ok but seriously I had a good reason to help her, to be able to see my combat power. Just as I shoot my shotguns with great accuracy, it looks like I have close combat and wraith form inside me like a reflex to everything that I do.
I had no fear against those bandits and the only thing that I felt was excitement from the battle. A feeling of combat knowledge just comes to my head out of nowhere like I would have been fighting for years.
*Hmm... That's Milarda?* Massive walls are surrounding it shaped like a circle securing the whole city.
I have no money to get into the town. And in a bad case, I have to teleport illegally into the town which in the bad case makes a lot of trouble. Besides, I still don't have any money.
I continue walking the road until I hear a normal carriage coming behind me.
The carriage gets past me and swiftly stops. There are many guards behind me running towards the carriage.
One knight which looks like their leader goes inside the carriage to see the situation.
Young miss. Why did we stop? Before he could ask anything more the woman quickly jumps out of the carriage and runs towards me.
It looks like the same woman I helped. She stops and stares at me while I try to analyze the situation.
"I couldn't thank you properly. My name is Kathrina Anderson and I thank you for saving me against those bandits."
Kathrina bows at me which makes knights twitch from the scene.
*I rarely save anyone, you should be proud to be able to get my help.*
"Such audacity!" The knight Leader shouts as she looks at me with anger.
*Shut up you pitiful fool.* My voice echoes as my shadow little bit leaks from my body.
Knight Leader shouts back at me trying not to get scared.
Do you not know who you are talking to?! You are talking to a high noble of Miralda Kathrina Anderson!
*I knew that you are a princess cutie*
cutie? cutie... the Kathrina looks away embarrassed as she tries to cover her face.
*Anyway if you wanna help me from saving you, I have no money to get even inside the city so that would help.*
The woman looks at me after she calmed down. She normally would be quite scared in this situation but as I speak to her and the fact that I saved him like half an hour ago, she is in a much more negotiable state.
"Helen! Bring this man a reward for saving my life!" Kathrina shouts as a maid is running swiftly towards me with a highly decorated pouch.
The maid put his arm fully into the small pouch which looks physically impossible.
*Interesting pouch your servant has a princess.*
"Yes. It is a space pocket that can hold 4 cupid meters space. It is expensive and very useful."
Kathrina boasts her wealth which makes me want to tease her.
*Is it so expensive that miss can't buy a decent security system for a carriage ride?*
"Wha?.." Kathrina looks at me in disbelief for me to speak to her like that. She got used to being called a princess but nobody is so shameless to a noble.
Helen gives me a leather pouch with some gold coins inside. I gladly take it as I walk away from the place to not make scenes again.
The guard at the gate watches me and ask many questions before letting me in.
*Finally I'm in.*
