"F*cking Demon! You thought it was that easy to enter the town!?" angrily shouted one of the guards. He immediately moved to the right, blocking the direct escape route to the door from which they entered the room.

Another guard quickly rushed out of the room; his intent was clear, he wanted to alert the other guards in the building.

"Crap!" thought Five. He himself drew his small dagger and got into position but no matter how he thought about the situation, there was absolutely no way for him to escape. The only way out was the door, there were no windows in the room. But one guard was blocking the way while the other was charging at him.

Immediately, Five acted. He used the dungeon shop and quickly bought smoke bombs. After escaping from monsters countless time, Five already knew instinctively where to find these bombs in the dungeon shop and could easily buy them in a fraction of a second.

Two smoke bombs appeared in his hand and he immediately threw them on the ground.

"D*mn! Adam block the door!" shouted the guard who was charging at Five. As the bomb exploded, he was forced to stop and raise his arm to protect himself from the smoke.

As for Five, he did not rush directly for the door. Instead, he went for the nearby table and tossed it at the guard at the door.

The latter was taken by surprised. He was already totally blinded by the smoke and simply tried to use his body to stop Five from escaping. He never expected to suddenly be hit by a hard flat surface. The shock caused him to lose his balance and be knocked away by the table.

With the guard out of the way, Five immediately dashed outside. He could hear the loud hurried steps of other guards running down the stairs.

There was no time to lose! He quickly ran out of the building and charged towards the gate. He could have gone towards the city, but he estimated he would be more likely to escape by the gate. If he hid inside the city, the guards would continuously look for him and would eventually catch him.

Five ran as fast as possible. The building was not very far from the gate and actually, no guards could be seen near the building. The building was just a rest place for the guards on duty. At this time of the day, all the guards were busy at the gate monitoring those entering the town.

Five quickly went through the gate where a few guards were standing. By now, all those who wanted to leave the town had already left, the majority of the people at the gate was trying to enter and so, the guards were focusing their attention towards the bridge.

It was only when they heard the running steps that they turned to look but it was too late. Five already ran past them. However, he was not safe yet. In front of him, half of the bridge was full of players and NPCs trying to enter the town. A few guards could also be seen on the other side of the bridge and on the bridge itself.

"Stop him! He is a demon in human form!" shouted the guards who were running behind Five.

"What?"

"Kill him! Anyone who kills that man will be awarded 50 gold!" shouted another guard.

Just like that, a bounty of 50 gold was placed on Five's head.

The guards at the gate quickly reacted and gave chase. At the same time, those on the bridge naturally heard the shouts and also reacted.

It was not just the guards, even the players were greedily looking at Five and drew their weapons. They did not know what happened, but they did not care. All they saw was an opportunity to obtain 50 gold!

Five had just escaped from the building and yet, he was now in an even worse situation. It was jumping out of the pan only to fall into the fire. No matter where he looked, Five only saw players and guards. He was only level 9 while all the other players were at least level 11.

"Stop him!"

"Arrest him!"

Several shouts sounded and Five was slowly surrounded. At this point, he was standing in the middle of the bridge. He couldn't run in either direction. A white light suddenly appeared, flying towards him.

Five only threw himself on the ground, barely dodging the [Mana Bolt] launched by one of the players.

"F*ck!"

Five frowned, he was completely surrounded, and the guards were quickly approaching. He thought about the different items in the dungeon shop, but he could not find anything useful. At best, he would be able to delay his capture, but to escape safe and sound? That sounded impossible.

Left with no choice, Five chose the only thread of hope he had. He could not run in either direction, but he could simply jump off the bridge! The only problem was, the moat was not a safe place! It actually housed a species of carnivorous fishes that could cleanly eat a whole human body in less than 15 minutes, leaving behind a complete skeleton.

However, Five knew he would not be able to escape from the players, the only chance he had was the moat and so, Five closed his eyes and jumped under the looks of dozens of people.

"Sh*t!"

"Don't let him escape! Rangers! Mages!" shouted the captain of the guards.

Five's body violently dove into the moat which was luckily relatively deep. But due to his hurried jump, he naturally was not able to make a proper dive and as a result, the impact with the water brought him a lot of pain.

[System prompt: You have taken damage from falling: HP -25]

As much as his body was in pain, Five could not afford to remain idle. He quickly swam back to the surface to get some air and hurriedly dove back and started to swim away from the bridge.

As he came to the surface, his ears were assaulted by a series of explosion and splashes.

"Boom! Splash Splash"

The archers and the mages were all firing projectiles at Five. Luckily, the latter was only hit by two [Mana Bolt] which reduced his HP down to 40.

On the bridge, the guard captain angrily ordered, "Quick! Everyone! Get moving and surround the moat! He will have to get out soon or he will perish to the carnivorous fishes." He himself raised his spear and lead the way running along the bank.

In the water, Five worriedly scanned his surroundings. He was swimming under the surface to protect himself from the projectiles the players might send at him but by doing so, he could also see dozens of eyes hungrily looking at him.

These eyes naturally belonged to the carnivorous fishes.

"F*ck! If only I had known that they would be able to tell that I am a dungeon master, I would never have tried to enter the city! D*mn Gaia... She made it so that I cannot enter a city and is forced to build my dungeon."

His heart was bleeding, he felt betrayed. But Five could not afford to complain right now. He hurriedly swam to the bank and got out of the water. There were no other options, the carnivorous fishes were much faster than him and could easily close the gap. When he saw that the carnivorous fishes were all level 30. Five quickly decided to leave the water. Between level 20 guards that would kill him instantly and level 30 fishes that would eat him slowly and painfully, there was no need for debate.

Fortunately, Five managed to reach the riverbank safely. The area was empty, Five did not see any of his pursuers and heaved a sigh of relief. He hurriedly bought a Health Potion from the Dungeon Shop and pulled his HP back to 60. The wind blew against his face, causing the green grass on the bank to dance along with it.

However, this moment of peace did not last for long. In the corner of his eyes, Five quickly noticed the movement of a shadow.

A tall muscular figure appeared and quickly rushed towards Five. The latter quickly recognized him. It was the captain of the guards. Behind him, a group of guards was furiously charging with their weapons drawn.

"D*mn, there's no time to rest!" Five quickly got up and immediately rushed in the opposite direction.

Behind him, he heard a series of curses. "F*cking demon! Come here and taste my sword!"

Five broke into a sprint. However, he quickly realized that the situation was even worse than he thought. In front of him, another figure with a dark dragon tattoo appeared; it was Andre, the person in charge of the camp outside Etora Town.

"F*cking rat! So this was why you could sleep while smelling shit! It probably smells like a rose for the people like you!" mockingly exclaimed Andre while raising his shield and a large spiky mace.

This time, Five really did not find any escape route; on one side was the guard captain, on the other, Andre and a group of guards and behind him was the moat full of carnivorous fishes.

The situation looked grim.
