《Aurelion》Chapter 11

"Not bad. Not bad indeed." Kishi said as Ghork fell onto the ground
"Thanks." I turned to Kishi. "I guess we technically got Ghork, so we should be okay to start heading to the village now.... or on second thoughts, after we eat. This magic stops bleeding anyways so Ghork should be fine."
Kishi chuckled a little said "Here! I helped you flipped your chicken."
I sat back to the seat I was on before Ghork came and found my chicken fully cooked, so I took a bite. After chewing and swallowing, I asked Kishi "Do you think you would be able to carry Ghork to the village?" Kishi said that he doesn't think so, so I told him about my idea.

We got back to the village just before dusk. We were just walking around when we saw Radolf walking out of a building called 'The apple pub' which I assumed it should be the tavern that the couple we met yesterday owned. Radolf noticed us and walked over to us.
"Roland! Kishi!" He shouted. "Who is this? And what happened to him? Why is he on a cow?"
"Ahaha" I laughed. "Long story, but is there a medic camp here? I'll explain there."

Radolf showed us the way to the village's medic camp. We left Ghork there for a medic to tend to him. The medic helped apply some medication and bandaged up his injuries. While the medic was doing their thing, I explained what happened to Radolf while Kishi walked around the village and looking out for the arrival of his last ally recommended by Alduin, Char.
"So, we got him here with the cow. That's basically all there is." I ended my explanation.
"Alright, so what you're saying is that, first you and Kishi accepted a quest from Alduin to create a team and defeat some sort of evil. Then, you two went looking for Ghork, the demi-human that caused the huge explosion which made the trees go flying. He challenged you to a battle, you accepted and defeated him. He fainted and both of you two can't carry him so you got a cow and use it to bring him here?" Radolf was quick to understand what happened.

"Yup, that's more or less exactly what happened." I told him.
"One question, if he ended up so hurt in a battle against you, let's just say he doesn't have half his original power during the fight against Alduin, then why do you look just fine? Do you have self healing powers or something, or a indestructible body like Alduin's?" Radolf asked.
"Well... I attacked him as soon as he say I may start the battle, before he even managed to finish talking. I also attacked him so fast he kinda.... didn't have the chance to counter attack or dodge."
"Wow. You must be very strong then, right?"
"Not really. I'm trained to defeat an opponent as fast as possible. So, if an enemy is able to dodge my initial attacks, or has a body strong enough to defend against my attacks, I would end up being nothing more than a bug." I told Radolf with a sigh.
Just then, Kishi returned with two person. One of them is a powerful looking figure. He is a slightly muscular male, who looked like someone in their twenties to thirties, with red spiky hair and a fire themed red and black jacket and a pair of matching jeans. Next to him is a long haired blond girl who seemed to be in her teens to early twenties. Her eyes were lake blue and she wore a blue dress.
"Roland! Radolf! Meet Char and his partner, Juno. As you already know, Char is an asura and a master of the fire and earth elements. Juno here is a forest elf. Char, Juno! This human here is Roland, and the demon here is Radolf." Kishi introduced us.
"Hey! Hey! Nice to meet ya!" Char said in a very open and friendly tone, just like someone who's very excited to meet new people, as he walked over to me and vigorously shook my hand. From his single sentence and hand shake, I could tell he is definitely very social. Strong and sociable.
"I haven't met a human before! Would you mind if we have a battle some time?" Char said as he gave me a pat on my shoulder.

"We will need to see" I replied
"Haha, I like you already!" Char said. He walked over to Radolf and gave him the same treatment as he said "So, you are Radolf huh? I heard you are learning the clone arts. I'm looking forward to having a battle with you after you master it."
The both of them continued their conversation as I turned away. I saw Kishi and Juno. They looked like they are having a serious chat, so I just gave Radolf a tap and told him I'm going to market, which is just across the street.
As I walked into the market, the smell of metals and leather hit my nose. There were stalls on both sides, one side they were selling treasures and mob loot such as gold necklaces, amulets, dragon scales, and animal hides. The other side was selling weapons and armor which includes daggers, swords, spears, bronze or iron helmets and body armor.
I was looking through the weapons, hoping to maybe find some cheap throwing knifes I could use and dispose of during a battle with a strong opponent or monster. I just stopped by a stall selling daggers and throwing knives and have a little look-see. I held a few of their iron and bronze knives and found them of quite low quality. For a newbie trying new knives, it might not be so bad. Mostly balanced for throwing but not optimized for power or accuracy, the grip is quite firm though.
I placed the knives back down and walked away. It seemed like people noticed me because as soon as I took my fourth step away from the stall, two big guys showed up behind me. One of them wrapped his arms around my shoulder and whispered to my right ear, "Hey, adventurer. You looking for weapons? Come, follow us, we can show you to a place."
It wasn't like I have a choice to say no, they were pushing me. If I wanted to, I could probably quickly swing my left hand and stab my dagger straight into the neck of the guy who wrapped his arm around me. Then, I could throw my other dagger with my right hand into his other friend, which should be enough to handle the both of them. But, at the same time, I was interested about where they might bring me to. Who knows if I see something I really liked and wanted, but sadly I might not be able to buy it as I only have that little bit of money I borrowed from Kishi on our way to the village.
I followed them into a tent just outside of the market's main area, behind a row of shops. The inside wasn't all that big, it was about the size of a small room you can rent in an inn, but it was sufficient enough to fit a few tables and shelves to display the weapons and a few selections of armor and treasures.
There was an old man sitting behind the tables. He said as soon as I entered and the guys who brought me here went outside to most likely stand guard and look for the next customer. "Hello there. Welcome to The Arsenal Chariot. I am a wandering trader so I have the best weapons and armor there are in this world, and if you travel a lot, we might meet again some day."
I guessed he wasn't lying about his products being of the highest quality. There really are a selection of eye catching daggers and knives. I stayed there and was so focus on looking through the products that I didn't realized how fast the time passed.
