So anyways I won't say more than I should. Here you go!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Abyss embassy, training grounds)
The trios followed the hooded man and into a hall. The hall was so tall that it could fit a giant and so wide that it could fit two tank across. While Lucarius marveled at the hall and the detail, the hooded man guided to a door. the man put a small key into the keyhole and the door suddenly began to rumble. Then as if the door was but an illusion, it slowly faded away. What waited them on the other side of the door made the trio astound.
There stood many candidates for a guard/soldier. many races and many sizes came to get a position for work. Majority of them showed as if they were guaranteed a job as they seemed to slack off. However, almost forty percentage of the people looked serious as they gave off chills and killing intent when the trios got closer.
Lucarius scanned the room and shivered when he met the gazes of those who were unleashing killing intent. There were races that Lucarius seen in the lobby in the embassy, and some were races that he had never seen before. Before Lucarius got lost in the crowd, Grayl grabbed him and dragged him to the front of the crowd.
While Grayl dragged him form behind, Lucarius bumped into a tall humanoid race with four arms sprouting from his body. The being suddenly pulled out a sword and swung at Lucarius. Lucarius yelped and manage to get under the blade. "Hey, why did you do that? Someone could have got hurt?!" cried Mia. The being glared at Lucarius and Grayl, but when he looked at Mia, he glanced at her from head to toe perversely.
"Bitch come over here and I'll forgive you. Otherwise I'll cut your friends up little by little and then slit your throat after I'm done" said the being grinning maliciously. Mia, knowing what he will do to her, grimaced and tried to retreat deeper into the crowd. Lucarius and Grayl glared at the being and intercepted his path as he approached closer. The being did not take this happily as he prepared to cut his opponents.
Before he could begin swinging, an elf grabbed his arms and put him on a vice grip. The being hissed in discomfort and tried to swing at this man. However, the being suddenly felt as if he couldn't move and his life was draining from his body. He looked behind the elf and found a small girl with a fluffy pink top hat casting magic on him. The man grinned. "I wouldn't do that if I were you. You see, your action can lead to a disaster, as everyone start hacking at each other." The being growled at him and let out a snort before releasing his grip of his sword.
Seeing as the being will give up, the elf released his hands as the being retreated into the crowd. "That was amazing! Thank you so much for helping us!" Lucarius cried out. The elf gave a warm smile. "No no it is fine. I believe that it is important to help someone who is being a damsel in distress." Lucarius nodded but Grayl stared at the elf and began sweating. Suddenly Lucarius offered his hand. "My name is Lucarius. I am a low Human according to my friend Grayl and Mia over here." The elf nodded and observed Mia. He than gave him a wide grin and shook the hand. "Oh how kind of you. My name is Larulis, Larulis Vendega. I am a wood elf from the shrine of Vondrega. This here is my partner Trixi Golus. She is a gnome as you can see and quite a nifty spell caster."
The girl name Trixi puffed her cheeks and looked away. Seeing this, Larulis giggled. Before Lucarius can react, he pulled Lucarius closer. "Oh my your eyes look beautiful as you come closer. Are you single cutey? If you are, do you prefer male by any chance?" Lucarius could not comprehend this and stared blankly at Larulis. Then realizing the situation, began to sweat and pale.
The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.
Luckily Mia interrupted the mood by grabbed Lucarius' other hand and bringing him closer. "I believe we are quite busy at the moment and we need to meet our... friends. I hope we can meet you later though sir Vendega." Grayl nodded his head rapidly as if it was gonna fall off. Larulis puckered his cheek as if he was pouting. "Aw that is unfortunate. I believe we will meet again though, farewell." All three nodded before dashing into the deeper section of the crowd.
As he stared at the trio leaving, he let out a sigh. He then faced Trixi. "Did you confirm that boy's status?" Trixi nodded slowly. "Yep, looks like he is interesting after all. His eyes aren't just normal eyes but blessed from a high tier god." Larulis giggled. "I told you we have some interesting people this year." Then they both disappeared into the crowd.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The trios ran for a long time as they try to escape from Larulis. When they thought they were safe, they stopped for a breath of air. When Grayl recovered he faced Lucarius. "You idiot why did you offer his hands like that to a random stranger?" Lucarius just simply rolled his eyes. "Look I am sorry that I happen to bump into a gay elf whom I never met, OK?" Grayl just shook his head. "You idiot do you even know who that was? You are lucky to even be alive." Lucarius raised his eyes in confusion.
Mia simply gave him an explanation. "Look the one who you met was Larulis Vega Vendega and Trixi Dric Golus. Larulis is a very known bounty hunter who is notorious for attacking male and slowly killing them. He gained a nickname for his sadistic nature and that is 'the man flayer' since he loves to collect the skin of his victim. Trixi is his notorious partner as she is known to casting class dark and paralysis magic on her victim in order for them to be immobilize Larulis' prey. In order for them to not break out out, she drains her victim's life force until they cannot struggle."
Lucarius suddenly became tired and let out a worried sigh. "How come every where I go, There is always trouble waiting around the corner?" Both of them turned and faced Lucarius and shouted. "WE SHOULD BE BLAMING YOU! YOU BRING DISASTER WHEREVER WE GO!" Lucarius looked at them both in disbelief before looking away. Suddenly a small gnome walked towards the stage located at the very front of the crowd. He chants something quickly and suddenly a microphone pops into his hands. The gnome takes a deep breath before continuing. "Thank you everyone for trying out for this interview. I hope many of you will succeed in these tests that are to come. You must remember that many of you may die here today for the sake of enlisting into the army for the council. The council strives to protect its citizens and those who cry out for help. We must be willing to sacrifice our own lives for the greater good." "Now onward to your FUTURE!" cried the gnome as he pulled a lever. Suddenly the floor opened up and everyone was left dumbfounded as they disappeared into the darkness down below.
