ars looked back into the fire while he stuck his hands even deeper into the fire

"I mean I have never seen anything like your aura... it's so strange..."

'well I guess it's because of the whole reincarnation thing...'

of cause Mars wasn't going to tell Sarah he was reincarnated into a living god, but he still felt a little bad he couldn't say why his aura was so strange just not enough to care about it for very long

'oh well...'

silence fell over the camp as Mars warmed his hands and absorbed energy from the fire while Sarah readjusted the string on her bow until sometime late Mars gave a twitch and suddenly stood up with a eerily wide smile on his face

'...this guy is good'

it was faint, but his ears had picked up sighs of life in the forest some 350 meters away

"what's wrong?"

"nothing, I need to go take a leak"

Sarah gave a frown at Mars's crude comment and vent back to working on her bow while Mars walked away from the campfire

'now how to go about this problem... I could sneak up on him and capture him but that seems like a pain...'

Mars gave a sigh and disappeared form view as he kicked off the ground and moments later he reappeared in the forest behind a man that looked and smelled like a bandit that had not showered for days

"WHO!?"

the bandit turned around with a dagger drawn and faced Mars in the dim forest and after squinting his eyes at Mars he relaxed a bit

"just a brat... don't worry I'll make this quick"

Mars completely ignored the bandit, he was more interested at the weird feeling he felt when he moved just now and mumbled

"...just like a cup on the verge of overflowing"

"what did you say brat? it's no use to beg for your life!"

the bandit rushed forwards and stabbed out at Mars and as his dagger sank into the stomach of his target his eyes flashed with a hint of wicked glee before it turned into fear as his dagger met no resistance when it pieced it's target

"wha---"

"annoying"

*SNAP*

the bandit's eyes widened now showing fear before he feel to the ground with a sound much like a sack of potato falling over, but still Mars ignored him after he instinctively snapped his neck and mumbled

"...again... just a little more..."

Mars's figure once again disappeared before it reappeared again a few meters away leaving a after image behind

"...no not like that"

again Mars disappeared and reappeared

"need to be more light on my feet..."

again another flash as Mars once again reappeared, this time with a smile on his face

"just like that..."

soft lights shone in the forest as Mars seemed to teleport in the dim forest as he reappeared and disappeared a few times a second until finely he stopped with a smile on his face

"...[Instant movement] huh... sure feels like a powerful skill I wonder what level it is... status"


as Mars exhaled a mist like substance flowed out of his mouth and formed the letterer of his status in front of him

"only level 1..? it feels way too powerful to be a level one skill..."

Mars tilted his head slightly

"maybe I should ask Info about it?"

Mars thought for a bit more time before his figure disappeared from the forest and reappeared at the edge of the camp where he walked over to the campfire where Sarah was sharpening her arrows and sat down

"how many were there?"

"hmm..? oh just one, seemed to be a scout"

"I see... well it's time the change"

"okay, see you in the morning"

Mars stood up again and vent back to his bedroll witch had been kept warm by Victoria and a little after he laid down he fell asleep again...

as the sun slowly peeked over the horizon and shone in between the leaves in the forest Mars opened his eyes

"...shit"

Mars was in a bad mood, no matter how many times he activated the [demon dreaming] magic it didn't work so his night had been filled with nightmares and now that the sun was showing he gave up on sleeping any more and crawled out of his bedroll and picked up his sheathe and sat down with crossed legs while he breathed in the morning air that healed his mood somewhat, meanwhile as a member of the slept-like-a-baby-all-night team Victoria did her morning stretches while she yawned and her horns flashed

"good... morning Mars"

"yeah, good morning to you too"

Mars gave a sidelong glare at Victoria and revived a innocent look back that defeated his sense of jealousy of her sleep quality and gave a sigh before he petted her on the head and looked out over the camp that seemed to be in the process of waking

"Mars, your awake"

"good morning Lina"

Lina walked over, she wore some casual clothes that she usual wore under her leather armor and looked very much like a flower opening its petals in the morning

"yeah g'Morning Mars, you mind helping with something?"

"sure what is it?"

Lina gave a sigh and pointed, Mars followed her finger and saw a figure that had yet to get up and was still sleeping despite the busy camp

"Jack... huh I had him figured for a early riser"

Lina looked at Mars and waved her hand in front of her face with a defeated expression

"no way, Jack always sleeps like a rock"

"well okay then..."

Mars put on his boots and walked over the where Jack was snoring away and pulled his sword from his sheath as he released a massive amount of killing intent and said with a smile on his face

"wake up, or I'll cut you"

Jack jumped up and out of his bedroll and took a defensive stance against Mars for a few seconds before he gave a confused look at first Mars and then the giggling Lina besides him

"good morning Jack"

"...morning Mars, what is this?"

"well it was the best way to get you out of bed"

"...I see"

Mars gave Jack a pat on the shoulder just as Frank called out

"pack your stuff we leave in 5 minutes!"

"...well you heard the man"

Mars vent back and packed his stuff and after putting his backpack on a carriage he walked over to Frank and told him he had dispatched of a bandit scout last night

"I see... well they should not be attacking us before we get the cargo from the village but keep your guard up anyway"

"okay boss"

Mars joined Jack and Lina in the back of the convoy again but this time Mars noticed Sarah moved her position further back in the convoy and was stealing glances at him

'nah that's properly just my imagination'

Mars decided to ignore Sarah as he talked with Jack and Lina until noon where the convoy reached Glaenarm village, the village didn't fit Mars's description of a village it was more like a prison with high walls that was heavily guarded by armed and armored guards that stood up on the walls and watched the convoy closely

"HALT! state your business"

Frank stepped forwards and called out

"we're the convoy from the Relt merchant company here as planed on time"

one of the guards gave a nod and lowered his bow before he looked at the mercenary's with wary eyes and yelled

"only people form the Relt merchant company are allowed inside the walls, all escorts are to wait outside!"

Frank looked at the mercenary's and explained

"sorry that's the rules, we will move again in 30 minutes take a break"

Mars grabbed his backpack before the convoy moved inside the walls and found a nearby tree where he sat down and pulled out a package with food

"are you hungry Victoria?"

"a little..."

Mars fed some salted meat to Victoria while he ate some of the biscuits and waited for the convoy to move again

'so it only takes 30 minutes to unload and load the convoy... I wonder what we're transporting, ant what Glaenarm village produces for it to be targeted by bandits...'
