It's been a little over a day since they started this escort mission.
The hills lie friendly in the day but are darkly ominous by night. Although there had been no attacks so far, the roars and sounds of Beasts made everyone uneasy.
Now Today The paths that were illuminated just hours before become lost in a blackness that even moonlight cannot help because of the Giants that stood on both sides of the Stony road. The trees that were magnificent in sunshine tower over Them as he steps across the borderline between the seen and unseen. Choosing not to go in is no choice at all as the leader haven't asked them to lay camp yet, but aren't most escort quests out Primux like that?.
The air is several degrees cooler and soon a few begin to shiver. On Their frequent stops waiting for scouts to return, Haru listens for signs of life around him, but there come none besides his fellow adventurers. out here it is more like the quiet of the graveyard.
"it's going to be another long night... haa" Haru thought as he urged his horse forward once more.
An Hour later, they began to set up camp before preparing dinner. It was a type of boar soup, and it tasted pretty good, so Haru finished eating it pretty quickly. Other people didn't try to speak to him and Elena kept peeking at him from a distance away from the fire, so Haru kept quiet all the way until they left in the morning. Still no movement from the carriage and people were getting curious.
[Meh... are you sure we aren't escorting corpses, I don't want to indirectly become an undertaker haha] An adventurer said with a laugh.
[Sssh!] Another man with red beards shushed him quickly.
[F*ck that! as long as the pay is good.] someone spoke from behind Haru, making everyone laugh a bit while reducing a bit of the tension. Funny enough the guards ignored their side comments.
Haru was Stationed to ride along the right side of the carriage while unsurprisingly, Elena was next to him.
One thing Haru was aware of, was that a young lady and an old man were in the carriage, while their family guards walked alongside the carriage, protecting it if something happens in a much more disciplined manner. on the other hand, the adventurers were a rowdy bunch.
Haru figured that the possibility of them being attacked today was high, but nothing actually happened for all morning and afternoon, which made him extremely cautious and the family guards looked so uneasy that the other adventurers noticed as well.
That evening finally got a quest after a very long time,
<Mission: Defend the Camp from the Chaos beasts.
(Grade B)
Reward: One weapon lottery ticket(Epic)
100 000 system points.
Chaos Beasts: Creatures tainted by the recent surge of Chaotic Mana in the world.>
Although it was a short description, Haru more or less knew the situation from it. He suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from beneath the tree, staring at the forest near them. Due to his sudden actions, the people around him became alert.
[What is it? is there something coming?] Elena asked cautiously as she eyed the direction Haru was watching while She walked over to him
[Chaos beasts.]Haru said curtly as he frowned slightly, it was definitely not going to be easy as system graded it as a B grade mission.
A simple reply, but serious results. The face of the Poor girl paled greatly, while the The on ground leader only paled slightly. He took out his sword, while the guards watched their group with weird expressions.
The adventurers all took out their weapons and warily looked towards the forest.
A guard couldn't take it anymore and cussed, [What nonsense, Chaos Beasts are only things of legends. None had been seen in over a thousand years.!]
'That's right!'
Haru was unaware of this and just mentioned what the system said. In any case, he was worried because the system never makes mistakes.
Sure enough, few seconds later, they could all clearly hear the rumbling coming from the forest, signifying the arrival of beasts. Nearly all the guards were sweating and began struggling to pick their weapons.
Soon they were in formation and some even gulped their saliva down, tightening the grip on their weapons.
Haru readied himself for the attack and Barely a minute passed before the Chaos beasts swarmed out of the forest with glowing Green eyes, rushing towards the group.
There were all types of beasts. from Wolves and bears to tigers and foxes.
Haru gripped a Kunai in reverse grip while he revolved his Chakra and appeared before a Dire wolf , cleanly severing it's head with it. He didn't stop there, He threw a bunch of explosive tags into the midst of the chaos beasts around him.
Boom!
BOOM!!!
BOOM!!
+240 system points
+4080 exp
+430 system points
+5240 exp
Before anyone could even react, Haru had killed dozens of beasts from the Horde, which raised the morale of the guards and adventurers, who rushed into the fray while shouting loudly, all raising their weapons against the Chaos beasts.
Haru didn't bother with them, as he soon spotted three apes giving off class 6 Auras, unable to resist He Dashed towards them while performing one handed seals for Katon Hidora no Jutsu (Fire Release: Hydra Technique)
He sucked in his breath and released it at the first Ape in front, The 3 streams of fire that resembled 3 snakes hit the apes before Haru got to them.
BOOM!!!BOOM!!!BOOM!!!
Kunais began flying out like a shadows, piercing into the skulls of the Apes with a dull Thud. Haru frowned slightly as he felt Something approach him from behind, so he used substitution jutsu while leaving a giant explosive tag behind and blowing up every thing within radius.
Arriving at a different part of the battle ground, he Noticed that he seemed to have attracted the aggro of all the Beasts or what ever is leading them wants him dead.
He was about rushing at the beasts but felt a shiver rush up his spine as he instinctively pulled out the Gunbai fan from his back and blocked.
BOOOOOOOM!!
Although he blocked it, he was still sent flying backwards by the sheer force of the blow, and he felt his organs shake slightly. in the same way, everything in front of his Block was sent flying back as well.
The Force sent violent winds to the surrounding, shocking everyone. At this time, the windows of the carriage opened Up to show a shocked girls face and a thinking old Man.
Haru opened his mouth and greedily sucked in air. The move just now was too strong for a Class 6 creature, plus he still hasn't seen what it was and yet it kept creeping up to him without him noticing.
"Tch... I can't use Sharingan here, but what is that?" Haru thought as he strained his eyes to see beyond the Dust cloud.
Suddenly a Massive python that looked the size of Kurama's Tail Roared into the Air and silence embraced the area. it then coiled around itself as its Dark Blue scales blended with the night and it's glowing green eyes looked at Haru in rage.
Seeing this, the Old man from the carriage stepped out while slowly he walked to stand between Haru and the Python.
[Kid, I just can't sit by and watch a young talent like you die here. This is a "veganoluct", A class 6 beast with the strength and control of a pseudo Saint class beast...] The Old Man spoke slowly but was interrupted by Haru.
[I don't care... I'm fighting it!] Haru said as he continued to stare directly at the snake while racking his brain with thoughts like "I know this man from somewhere...where, where, wher..."
The Old man looked surprised at him and laughed while saying [Oh?! Hahaha I guess I can use a little help then.] and He released his King Aura while Qi gathered up on his sword that seemed to appear from no where.
Vwoooooom!
The snake Charged at the old man with the speed of an electronic train.
Both men dodged the pouncing snake and The old man stab out with his sword a few times, striking at the snakes head constantly. in an attempt to avoid the Old man's sword, Haru took the chance to pierce the snakes eye.
SCREEEEEEEEEE!!
the shrill cry of the Snake Made the other beasts go into a bersmy erk state along side it.
Taking this chance, The Man used all his strength to push More sword qi into the Sword till the sword cracked a bit and swung it beneath the snakes Head, Severing it's Head in one full swing.
Haru sighed out in relief and removed his Kunai from the now dead snake, and by this time, the beast started dying out immediately as well. He caught his breath and looked over to the guards who were fighting the rest of the Chaos beasts.
He could see that a few dozen of the guards and adventurers had already died, while there were still dozens of Chaos beasts left.
"luckily I didn't have to use my serious trump caards"
30 minutes later, the remaining beasts were killed off by the guards and adventurers.
By the end of the fight, around 52 people had died, which caused Haru to sigh. The old man Didn't join the fight again since he had to protect the young Miss , but seeing the dead guards, his eyes were red.
Mission: Defend the Camp from the Chaos beasts.
(Grade B)...Complete.
You have received One weapon lottery ticket(Epic)
100 000 system points.
'What a large reward!'
Haru was Excited and was about using the ticket when the old man spoke to him,[Thank you for keeping so many people alive. Although you didn't save all of them, I am thankful you kept most of them alive by attracting most of the Beasts ]
[No need for thanks. I was just doing my job.]Haru spoke in an unperturbed manner.
Haru leaned back against a Tree, He was a bit tired after that fight and the Man seemed to have more to say, He let out a sigh and kept 80% of his perception active just in case something happens, so that he can react in time as most of the people here were too tired.
Just as he was about to cut his discussion with the old Man due to his excitement, The Young Girl's voice came from the carriage's window, [Good sir, May I ask how you got that weapon?! ]
[!!!!]
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
