HEY I ASKED YOU WHO YOU ARE the leader of the bandits shouted

Huh? Who-who is that Sebas the girl asked the butler?

I don't know either lady Alifa, but I don't think he is a bad man.

The bandits who had previously surrounded the maids and the girl were now all focused on me as I slowly approached them. While I was looking at them, I felt again a feeling inside me that I had never felt before. Was that anger? Anger? Am I angry? I asked myself these questions before I saw one of the bandits approaching me.

HEY DIDN'T YOU HEAR WHAT I ASKED YOU? GO AND PLAY HERO ELSEWHERE OR DO YOU WANT TO END UP JUST LIKE THIS GUY BEFORE YOU HAHAHAHA said one of the bandits.

My hand, in which I had my sword, began to tremble and my gaze was directed only at the bandit at that moment I had only him in mind nothing else, it was a strange feeling.

HAHAHA LOOK AT WHAT WE HAVE HERE A BASTARD WHO WANTS TO PLAY HERO HAHAHAH KILLING GUYS LIKE YOU IS THE MOST FUN FOR ME!!!! Shouted the bandit and swung his sword

....

Absolute Counter

....

SLASH

Eh?

What-

What is this? AH-AHHHHHHHH MY ARM

As the bandit in front of me swung his sword to attack me, I used Absolute Counter like sara and cut off his right arm where he was holding his sword.

ahh my arm you piece of shit I'm going to kill you ahhhhh-

....

...

SLASH

Shut up

After the bandit fell backwards on the ground, I went to him and cut his head off while he was still screaming in pain. And when I did that, I looked around and saw how the maids as well as the bandits were all stiff in shock, not believing what had just happened. Before their eyes I had decapitated the bandit whose lifeless body then just dropped to the ground.

What-what's that- UHAAA said one of the maids before she threw up.

I looked at the rest of the bandits and saw that none of them were laughing anymore, they were all frozen and none of them was moving.

TSH AHHH COME ON MEN LET’S KILL THIS PIECE OF SHIT FAST SO WE CAN TAKE CARE OF THE REST suddenly the leader shouted as he ran towards me swinging his sword.

He swung his sword from the side, but I blocked his attack, causing him to tumble. And once again he attacked me this time with a thrust to the front, when I saw that I leaned to the side and cut off his arm.

AHHH YOU BASTARD-

KICK

COUGH

I had cut the bandit's arm off and kicked him back with my foot shortly after, causing him to fall to the ground. While he was on the ground, I went to him before he took his sword with his left hand and swung it.

DIEEEEEE

...

Absolute counter

...

SLASH

AHHHHH FUCK YOU PIECE OF SHIT AHHHH

As the bandit tried to hit me again with his sword which he now had in his left hand, I used Absolute Counter and cut it off. After I did that I looked the bandit, who had no more arms, in the eyes, bent down to him and said, touched him with my hand and said

Death Touch

....

....

BOOM

...

AH HAHHA MONSTER, MONSTER screamed one of the bandits as he saw their leader explode in front of their eyes and his blood splattered everywhere.

This feeling... I had just killed 2 people, even if they weren't humans to me, they were still human beings made out of flesh and blood. And although I knew that I felt nothing in this situation. The only thing i felt was Happiness. I was happy and glad that I had killed them. So after the bandit explodes in front of me and in front of the other bandits, I looked at them and saw how they were all trembling before.

AHHH RUNN

AHHH

I saw all of them throwing their weapons on the ground and running away.

"Hey... Where are you all going? Why are you running away? Hey, stay here. '' I said to myself, knowing that I would not let any of them escape.

While I was saying that, I used inhuman speed and killed each and every one of them I decapitated, dismembered, halved and massacred them all.

AHH HELP

AHHHH

...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SPARE ME PLEASE I DON'T WANT TO DIE

After I had killed every single bandit, only one of them was remaining, I went to him and removed his headgear and mask and saw that he was still very young.

What are you saying? I should spare you? Are you kidding me? ''

PLEASE, PLEASE, I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T MEAN TO BIT-

....

SLASH

...

The bandit who was crying in front of me on the ground begging to be spared died after I decapitated him with my sword. And after I did that, I turned around and looked, there were body parts everywhere, organs and blood. I had just killed 15 people and felt...nothing, unlike the goblins I didn't care. Shortly after looking at what I had done I looked at the maids and the girl.

,, mhhh what's going on? Why are they trembling and looking so distraught? '' I asked myself

Maybe it's because you just slaughtered 15 people or because of your Dark Aura skill, maybe both.

''Ha that could be the reason- wait Dark Aura? ''

..... You got the skill yourself, yet you have no idea what it does? Sigh... the skill Dark Aura creates an abyssal dark and malicious aura around you.

,, so that would explain why they are so afraid... And because I just slaughtered 15 people ha. '' I said and asked Sara to turn off the skill.

So I turned off the skill Dark Aura and approached the Maids.

STOP DON'T COME ANY CLOSER, WE- please you can do what you want with us just spare the girl suddenly screamed one of the maids while her whole body was shaking.

,, ah don't worry I'm not a bandit or anything, I wasn't far from her walking before I heard screams and thought you might need help. '' I said to them with a smile while I was covered in blood.

Maria grab Lady Alifa and run away we will buy you some time whispered one of the maids.

Idiot didn't you see what he just did!? He would kill us all immediately we have no other choice but to believe his words whispered Maria to the maiden back

,, haha don't worry you can trust me, of course I won't kill you if Maria grabs Lady Alifa and runs away. I said to her with a grin

how-how did he hear us one of the maids said in shock

I see sneaking around is useless against you, then we will have to trust you. As you have already heard, I am Maria and this girl here is Princess Alifa, we were on our way back to Elf Kingdom when we were attacked by those dirty bandits said Maria after she put away her daggers.

,, I see, so they were bandits, I'm Roku by the way, nice to meet you, and who were those men who were with you? '' I asked Maria

So, Roku, nice to meet you, and those men were nothing more than mercenaries I hired to escort us, but I should have known that those mercenaries are not to be relied upon, Maria said with an annoyed look. And as for that, Sir Roku, can I make you an offer? Maria asked me

Sure, and please Roku is enough. I said to her

Okay Roku, as you just heard from me, we hired these bandits to escort us. But as expected, they weren't reliable, so how about you escort us until we get to the elf kingdom? Maria asked me

,, ohhh but can you trust me? What if I just pretend that I am not a bandit? '' I asked her

If that' s the case, I will kill you or stop you until the princess can escape. But I don't think you are a bandit she said with a grin.

,, haha sure I'll take you up on that offer, but isn't there a problem, I thought strangers like me are forbidden to enter the elven kingdom? ''

That's right normally it's forbidden for strangers, but there are exceptions and besides that rule is already outdated anyway, so there shouldn't be a problem with that said Maria annoyed.

,,It almost sounds like you don't like that rule very much? '' I asked her

Sign you are right, if it were up to me, I would have abolished this rule long ago, if it were not for the elders. Even our king is against this rule and wants to abolish it, but because the elders want to hold on to the old traditions, even he can't do anything.

,, I see, and who are these elders? '' I asked her while I was searching the bodies of the bandits.

They were the first elves and the ones who founded the elven kingdom, that's why They believe that They are in charge and not our king...

,, Well, there are people like that everywhere, people who just don't want to die although it would be the best for everyone. '' I said to her after I had searched all the corpses and took from them only a bow with arrows and a few gold coins.

+ bow and arrow

+ 100 gold coins

That's right, although I shouldn't say that out loud, well then, we should get going again. LET'S GO GET THE CUTCH READY Maria said to the other maids. And when Maria said that the maids got the carriage ready and the butler and Princess Alifa got in, but I noticed that the girl was staring at me. I didn't thought much of it and shortly after we were on our way to the elf kingdom. On our way, however, I saw the girl staring at me again, and when I saw that, I looked at her, smiled and waved at her.

Ahhhhh her expression said only before she hid.

,, Uh do I have something on my face or something? '' I asked the maids

Hahahaha no don't worry Lady Alifa is unfortunately very shy so that's normal one of the maids said to me

Haha that's true but it's been a long time since I last saw her so shy. Lady Alifa has always been very shy when she was little she could never speak out or talk to strangers. But as time went by she became braver and braver and was even able to give a speech in front of a crowd without stuttering hahaha.

ahhh I knew they wouldn't give up so easily....'''

Mhh what do you mean by that Roku asked Maria

,, 5.... no 9. ''

Roku what's going on

,, THEY'RE COMING I screamed as I felt several hostiles approaching us thanks to my Perceive threat skill.

TSH AGAIN? YOU HEARD HIM GET IN POSITION-

But before Maria could finish her sentence, 3 bandits attacked us, jumping from the trees and aiming at the carriage. When I noticed this I used inhuman speed to run to a tree and used inhuman strength to shoot myself from it up in the air to the bandits. Due to my inhuman speed, none of the 3 had noticed me, so I took out my sword and decapitated one, cut the second in half and stabbed the third with my sword through his heart.

WATCH OUT one of the maids shouted and pointed left and right and I saw 2 bandits attacking the carriage from both sides. Since there were two bandits I had the idea to use one of my daggers again as a throwing knife before Maria shouted

ROKU TAKE CARE OF THE right ONE before she took out her two daggers.

The bandit then drew his sword and ran towards Maria, but Maria had already forestalled the bandit. Even before the bandit drew his sword, she ran towards him and when she was standing right in front of him, he swung his sword. But Maria dodged and used the bandit as a springboard to push herself back into the air before I noticed something. The two daggers Maria held in her hands were tied together with a string. So while she was in the air, she threw one of the daggers at the bandit which was then stuck in his chest. After that she landed on her feet and pulled the bandit towards her and at the same time used her other dagger and rammed it into the bandit's throat. As Maria stabbed the bandit in his throat with her dagger and it pulled out, the bandit grabbed his throat with both hands before he choked on his own blood and fell to the ground. After seeing Maira kill the bandit, I looked back at mine and saw that he was holding a small ball in his hand. While I was still in the air I saw the bandit threw this ball, when seeing that I used inhuman speed and was able to kick the ball back to the bandit in time.

...

BOOM

...

INFRONT OF US suddenly one of the maids screamed again and pointed at two men running towards the carriage.

I looked at them and used a new skill instant teleportation, with this skill I am able to teleport in a radius of 50 meters to any place I look at. So I used instand teleportation and teleported myself between the two bandits who noticed what I had done only shortly after, but it was already too late to react. I used my sword and killed them both on the spot, before I felt my body telling me to LOOKOUT, just like at the Golem. As I felt that I looked straight ahead and saw a eighth bandit, but he was not holding a sword like the rest, instead he was saying something to himself.

Watch out this bandit is a mage and is about to use a very strong spell said Sara.

Knowing I was going to use teleportation again, but I wouldn't be able to do it in time because when I saw the bandit, I saw him raise his hand before a huge fireball came out and flew towards us.

SARA, DOES ABSOLUTE COUNTER WORK AGAINST MAGIC? '' I asked Sara

Yes, absolute counter is able to throw back any attack on the opponent no matter if it is a sword or magic. However, you have to hit the opponent's attack as well, so you can't just say absolute counter, you have to hit the attack exactly said Sara.

Knowing that I was able to use Absolute Counter, I got myself ready.

ROKU LOOK OUT I heard Alifa scream

...

ABSOLUTE COUNTER

BING

...

...

WA-

BOOM

As I used Absolute Counter the bandit and i both could see how his attack flew back at him and exploded on him.

,, finally, that was the last- ANOTHER ONE? LOOK OUT. ''

After successfully countering the attack, I thought this was the last bandit before I could see out of the corner of my eye another bandit sitting in a tree aiming a bow at the carriage. That's what I thought, but as I looked closer, I saw that he was not aiming at the carriage, but at Maria. After seeing this I used instant teleportation once again before the bandit fired his arrow. And although I was able to grab Maria in time and dodge, the bandit's arrow hit me in my arm.

ROKU Maria screamed when she saw what happened.

I put Maria down and turned around, only to see how the bandit jumped down from the tree and ran away. Without hesitation, I took out my bow and arrow, drew my arrow and shot before I heard a scream shortly after.

AHHHHHHHHH

Tha-that's impossible how did you hit the bandit without hitting a tree!? One of the maids asked me

,, Maria wait here it won't take long and be careful there might be more of them. '' I said to her and made my way to the bandit.

I knew that the skill Perfect Warrior would be useful, because thanks to this skill I am able to use every weapon perfectly, so it was no wonder that I hit the bandit. After I said that, I could already see the bandit trying to crawl away. I went to him, grabbed the arrow that was stuck in his foot, pulled it out and stomped on his wound with all my might.

AHHHHHH FUCK YOU AHHHHH

As I did that the bandit began to scream in pain before I bent down and looked him right in his eyes

,, You will tell me everything I want to know, or I will cause you pain worse than this scratch. '' I said to him and pointed at his wound.

OK OK PLEASE I WILL TELL YOU EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW

,, Why did you attack us? '' I asked the bandit

BECAUSE THAT WAS OUR JOB, SOME GUY CAME TO US WEEKS AGO AND PAID US TO KILL PRINCESS ALIFA

,, and from this man you probably also found out where she would be. And who was this man? ''

i don't know, i haven't seen his face and i don't know his name either please that's all i know

,,Well then, that wasn't so hard, was it? ''

no-now let me go please have mercy I have told you everything I know said the bandit who was now crying

...There it was again that word mercy, would he have shown mercy to Maria and the rest? Why should I show mercy to someone who would not show any. Already in my world I hated characters who always showed mercy to the bad guy.

Oh, you just killed my boyfriend, girlfriend or friends and you are evil to the core, and you want to kill me too? I forgive you, because I know that there is still a spark of good in you. I absolutely hated people like that, because they only achieve one thing, they show their opponent their weakness, which they will then later use against you.

PLEASE, PLEASE

So I drew my sword, looked at the bandit with a cold look before I pierced him very slowly with my sword through his Heart...
