《War of the gods [Forum game]》Chapter 22. Do I really need to leave this city?
Advertisement
Nameless heard a whisper. [Leave. I advise you to flee immediately. Go as far away from this city as possible but be careful while leaving. I would suggest going in the opposite direction of the temple where you had found that saliva in. Find a trustworthy and safe community to take refuge in.]
I need to go! This city is very dangerous place to stay! The man had seen that bloodthirsty mob and dead bodies at the streets. He hadn't a wish to be robbed and killed. Thus, he stood up and hurried to the window. That damn cat can be somewhere around! I need to be careful! But I haven't time for this!
The human jumped out of the window and looked around. Now he felt conflicted. The man knew that he must flee the city right away, but – at the same time – he needed to go in the opposite direction of that temple, where Nameless had stolen that flask. Nameless was the first time in this city and knew only about one exit - that gate that he had passed through to enter Turera today. The man didn't know where could be another gates and how much time he would waste looking for them. Hence, the human had decided to go to the gate that he knew.
Nameless headed down the street in a hurry.
I need to be careful! He reminded to himself and looked around to see no one.
Currently the man was afraid to be spotted by a group of robbers or to hear that damn “Meow!” from behind his back.
Nameless didn't know that the cat followed him stealthily right now. The curious green eyes stared at the man's back.
Soon the man had reached the gate and saw that it was close. A group of soldiers guarded it. Besides, Nameless had noticed a cloaked man who stood aside from the soldiers. His green cloak looks so unusual.

Three familiar words - that the man had seen in the temple of the natus_vincat – were embroidered on his cloak. Is he a priest of that god? Um... he wears so fine clothes and his rings, as well as an amulet, looks expensive.
Nameless stared back at the close gate. I can't leave the city through this gate. Not good. What shall I do?!
In that moment a will of great spirits disappeared and the man became free.
Do I really need to leave this city? The human didn't believe those voices. He was suspicious. It's happening an unrest in Turera now. It can be dangerous to me to stay here. That's true. But why do the voices want me to leave this city?
He looked at the close gate. It seems I haven't a choice. The gate is close. I think other gates - if they are - are close and guarded as well. If I truly need to escape from Turera, I need to find another way. But I really need to do it?
The man turned around and walked in the city cautiously.
Someone can follow me, Nameless thought, thinking mostly about the black cat with green eyes. It's better to go the other way.
~~~~~~
Later five cloaked figures halted nearby the gate.
“He was here!” Alba said, pointing at the place where Nameless had stood. “I smell his scent here.”
“Good! Let's continue!” the captain gave a hand signal to his subordinate – who stood beside the gate – to stay where he was.
A team turned around and walked in the city. They didn't like what was coming off in Turera now, but they had a mission.
~~~~~~
Soon Nameless reached that part of the city that wasn't touched by an unrest. People even walked at the street here, but everyone looked tensed.

I guess they know what's happening in the city. At least some gossips shall have reached this place. Ah, damn... I need to rest.
The man heard those voices.
[Stay in this part of the city! Find an inn and take some rest at last!]
[Flee the city! Don't stop! Don't rest! Hurry up! Inquisitors are close!]
[Find an entrance to the sewer! You still have a chance to kill mutants!]
[Run down the street, screaming “Kill filthy mutants!”!]
[I gift Nameless*]
[I gift Poonkey*]
~~~~~~

Blood Demon's Retirement
Civil War had raged on the Al-Shan Archipelago for the past four decades, only recently coming to an end with the enthronement of the new Emperor. This is not his story. The Blood Demon, renowned general of said civil war, was tired of all the fighting and politicking that had described the last four decades of her existence. All she really wanted to do now is to go out into the world and see the many lands from her father's stories. Thus she retired, and went and did exactly what she wanted. This is the story of what happens when you toss a (retired) war machine with somewhat lacking common sense into an unsuspecting world at peace. Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday. First time posting a story on Royal Road here, hoping you folks will enjoy. Expect: -slow going slice of life with occassional faster paced action -world building -detailed anecdotes on the world, its races, the magic system, and whatnot every now and then Do not expect: -romance, other than maybe some passing mentions -politics, again, barring passing mentions Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated. And thank you for reading. ---------------------------- Disclaimer: This story is my original work and only posted on the Royal Road and Scribblehub websites.
