《The hitman summoned as a hero》Chapter 8: The hero and the anti-hero Part 1-old
Advertisement
After a short time mounting Cenrea we arrived at the first town. In the town, we started searching for Rodelia, Annie, Bluenisa and Fio, checking every alley, every shop, guild and asking everyone. I thought that it couldn't be hard to find them, they were an harpy, a doll, a slime and a magician but later I found the truth. Nobody heard something about them and the people didn't even want to talk about it. The people weren't going to help us and we didn't find them so we left, it was only a waste of time to stay in there.
We went to the second town and again the people were just ignoring us or didn't want even to talk. We were taking stabs in the dark. Knowing that the people didn't want to help us, we decided to not ask them anymore. We went around the town checking every place and we didn't find them. When we finished it was already evening and we couldn't continue so we decided to sleep in a guild. While we were trying to find Rodelia, Fio, Annie and Bluenisa we discovered three cheap guilds. To sleep and eat well we went to the first one and they didn't accept us. They told us that the centaurs and dryads weren't allowed but I could sleep and eat alone. I refused, I wasn't going to abandon them, a man mustn't abandon a woman. Also, I had other reasons, like that we had sex, we were close to getting married. Seeing that no matter what we weren't going to stay together we left, to go to the second one. In the second one, they told us the same thing, dryads and centaurs couldn't sleep or eat there. Finally, we went to the last guild and again the answer was the same. This town seems to hate non-humans, it was like racism. I hated that but I wasn't going to cause problems in the town, I had an order of arrest and I wasn't alone.

Without food, a bed or a place to stay the night we went outside of the town, it could be dangerous but it was better than staying on the roads and alleys sleeping. We went pretty far from the town, and we slept in the forest. Melia was really helpful, she made a bed of branches and vines for us and another bed of Leafs for Cenrea on the ground. Sleeping I started to think about what do next, Rodelia and Fio were the only ones that knew the way to the angel and I was completely lost in this world. All I knew about it was the things that Rodelia told me and that all most women want to rape me. Perhaps it was my fault, I wasn't defending myself or something like that or I started to be more like a bodyguard than a Hitman. I had too much to think but I wasn't going to spend the entire night with my thoughts so I went to sleep.
The next day, we prepared ourselves and we went to the third town. In the town, we did the same, ask people and look around and this time we found some useful information. I went to the guild of the town, and there I started asking about four girls, one a purple slime, a magician, a blue harpy and a doll. Only a group of mercenaries responded. They were affirmed that they saw a purple slime with three other girls, searching for a man that looks like me. In that moment I knew that they have been in the town and that we might get closer. I asked them if they could tell me where they saw them and they didn't answer. They wanted money to talk more, I couldn't blame them, they were mercenaries. The problem is that I wasn't to pay them, I changed my mood and I asked them: "What do you prefer to talk nicely or to be forced to talk?" Then the four mercenaries got up and one of them threatened me: "What did you say? I suppose that you want to die" And I told them: "You can try to kill me or you can just talk"

Soon after hearing that the mercenary took his sword out and tried to cut me. I dodged his attack, I hit him his arm making him drop the weapon after I hit him in the neck, I lift and I threw him away. I left him knocked out. Later the others attacked me, the first one had an axe and tried to tear me apart. His problem was that he was slow attacking. I dodged his attack, I took fast my daggers out and I stabbed him in the hands which were holding the axe. The daggers were stuck in his hands and he started screaming so I hit him in the neck with my own hands. Then the other tried to stab me with his spear. Luckily I grabbed his spear and I hit him with it. The last mercenary tried to kill me, shooting an arrow. He hit me but it wasn't enough to knock over me so I broke it and I charged against him. When I was close, I threw him on the ground. After I took a bottle of alcohol that was near us and I broke it on his head. While I was on the mercenary with the arrow the mercenary with the spear caught me unaware with his arms. He thought that he could handle me but he was wrong. I hit his arms with all my force, I give him a nudge, and I kick his eggs. He fainted and he was out of the game. When I thought that I finished playing, I took my daggers out of the hand of the mercenary, I hit him in the neck with them and I left him bleeding on the ground. It was kinda funny to see a hulk like him crying like a baby. I defeated all of them so I thought that I could ask them again and this time they were going to respond. The only one that was still awake was the crying baby so I asked him. He didn't want to respond. He surprised me, I thought that I taught them a lesson.
In order to make him talk I decided to torture him. I was in public and I knew that the soldiers were going to come soon but I need to make him talk. I stab him in the leg while twitching the knife and he started screaming louder. I asked kindly him again and he still didn't respond so I took my daggers out. With them out, I kick his injured leg repeatedly, and he started to spit out all that he knew. He told me that they saw them in this guild. They heard that they wanted a map of the forest. I asked him "And they weren't asking for me?" He responded while he was holding his leg his stabbed hands "I fucking lied" I wanted to ask more but a white chevalier interrupted me. He was wearing a white armour, he could be a chevalier guessing by the armour while holding a long sword against me. The sword had a strange blue and red crystal attached to it and strange marks on his blade. Also, he was shorter than me. I couldn't see more about him, his armour didn't let me see his face or even if he was a monster. I didn't know who was he but he had eggs to try to stop me.
