《Way of the mage?》Ch-4 Man Vs Rat
Advertisement
He slowly moves towards the twin tail rat with the stolen knife slowly. As an assassin of underworld in previous life it was quite funny using those skills to kill a rat 1 ft long .just 1 step and the game would be over but at a precise timing his stomach growled and the rat ran away without looking back .he chased the rat cursing at his own stomach after all he was doing all this just for the stomach to get full .
Result ? The rat won the race. Austin went back inside looking at the seeds rat was eating only seven were left. He was so hungry that he tried eating one surprisingly it tasted like sunflower seeds . He took another then decided to keep the rest as a trap for the rat ,then he drank some water .
He found the rat hole and placed the bait and sat on the table holding the bowl to trap the rat .he waited patiently but the rat didn't show up 5min...10mins... 15mins... .when he finally got bored and turned his head slightly the rat was looking at him from old broken chair. Austin couldn't bare it " damn u fucking rat I ll kill u for sure you are a shame on my career as an underworld assassin." They were back in cat and mouse chase ,more like man and rat chase .the rat tried to run through same hole which it previously escaped but when it reach that place it was covered by some broken old furniture and Austin finally caught the rat ." You underestimate my intelligence."
He killed it immediately a satisfied expression appeared in his face. As rat has many germs in its body there were not many things he could eat . he gathered what he could eat and used broken old wood and junks he found to lite up the fire rubbing two amber stones because he couldn't use mana to Chanel some and produce flame sparks.

Maybe it was because he was hungry the rat meat tasted very good even without spices. Then he rested for few hours so he can recover little strength. He thought about what he should do now as his most of the youth was spent on revenge .
he had become a thug from the age of 18 finding traces of the man who killed his parents. Did all kind of dirty works to spread his name to join a particular organization which Mr. Dearil was part of. even after joining he didn't get the chance to meet with the boss as a low ranking member and as Dearil was trying to get in politics erasing his traces with underworld didn't help . It took 9 years to plan a nice meeting with the boss only to end with a suicide mission . Still he didn't regret it . Every moment of painful expression Dearil showed brought unexplainable joy and satisfaction in his heart .' maybe I am considered a psychopath for feeling this? Then so be it my only regret is that I let him die to soon and to fast. If only I was not bleeding so much.' Austin came back from his trance and laid down in the mashed up old cloths corner which was considered bed as wooden bed broken.
"Now what should I do, I never thought world like this was possible for me who sacrificed himself for revenge ." With a self deprecating smile he thought about new magical world and his 14 years old body living in slums , slowly he fell asleep thinking about whole magical city to explore.

The Other - a (man) called Ted
A figure, large and present through time in ways most would not understand. Seemingly uncaring about all except his own principles, the one we refer to as the Other (for legitimate reasons, lest some accidentally call upon his old name), finds his way through life. Though refusing to claim the title himself, this (immortal)'s projects have begun to leave him behind, awaiting some accident to move him back into the world. - - - - - - Initially intended to be a novella, then a project to keep me sane in busy times IRL, this will be considered the roughest of drafts. Also, IRL may prevent me from regular updates after the backlog is done. Tags with a grain of salt, items may be mentioned briefly in story so far, or in chapters already written but not published. Content warnings just in case. Some perspective switching in the first several chapters. Legitimately though, in the first chapters an explanation is provided for referencing to the MC as 'the Other.'
