《Hero? I'm assassin, but that's the same right?》Chapter 4. Let's make some magic... and get a proper slave (assassin)...
Advertisement
So... next time I will have a chance to buy slave will be in a few weeks... so now I'm stuck with only Nova... and a bunch of heroes... MO is cool though. Will be training with him mostly, as he knows quite a lot of magic principles... yes I also read some fictions, watched movies and anime, and played games, but... that dude is a walking ENCYCLOPIDEA! Oh and his name is Kenji. I call him Ken though.
“So basically Darkness and Shadow are different?”
“Yes. You see Shadow is only exists if there is light, while darkness exists everywhere, let me show you.” he created the same balls that old geezer made... they are smaller though. “This white orb is Light energy, while this Black orb is Dark energy. If we try to combine them” hoh... they start fighting... if you can call it that... “They try to consume each other, which is actually the same with some other elements, but Light and Darkness try to nullify each other.”
“And you understood it in a day?” he rubs his nose...
“Not really... I really liked the fantasy novels, so of course I would try to understand the principles between different magics.”
“Say... you were Otaku in previous world?”
“... Yes...”
“So you don't care about previous world?”
“Not really... I really liked internet though.”
“And here is magic! Of course it's not the same as internet, but... say did you finish the tutorial?”
“Tutorial? No I haven't... It was all too sudden, so I skipped it... accidentally...”
“Then you need to level up as fast as you can and gain [Basic Knowledge].”
“[Basic Knowledge]? Why?”
“Oh just you will get assistant, and it will explain you attributes and other stuff.”
“But we are already being explained... you are right... maybe I should get that... how do I buy it though?”
“Do you have unallocated points?”
“[Status]... unallocated points... yes... 5 points... what do I need to do?”
“Go to the [Traits/Titles] screen and ask about [Basic Knowledge]. Should cost five points...”
“Yes... oh... can you run down the tutorial? Oh... then can you explain-” that would be all then, I guess he'll be talking with assistant for a long time...

…
Day 2 after summoning... again running laps... doing sit ups, push ups and learning magic, nothing interesting except for the meditation. Good stuff for increasing mana regeneration.
…
Day 3... actually using spells... who could have thought that I can actually become one with flame? At least I could cover my arm in flames, which didn't burn me... but only for few seconds. And that burned off my shirt sleeve... at least I look kinda cool with only one sleeve... not practical though.
…
Day 4... BORING!!! Why the fuck would I want to run laps again?! So I decided to train with sword... my trainer was knocked out in ten seconds... 8.6 if you listen to assistant...
…
Day 5... 6, 7 8, 9 ,10-16 were... OK... I finally got [Fire Manipulation-basic] along with Earth, Water, Darkness, Lightning and Shadow. Oh and got [Psychic Manipulation-Novice]... no new powers though.
…
DAY 17!!! Finally I will get myself new slave AND clothes! I only got my armor and one set of clothes left...
So I was escorted into the city by the guards, while most of the 'heroes' were left in the castle... except Ken our Magical Otaku. He decided to go with me this time... actually he wants to get himself, as he call it anyway, 'Onee-san'... dunno why he want his slave act as his older sister though...
So we were escorted to the general store first where I got another few sets of clothing... again 20 silver, but this time it's actually15 sets. Oh and two more black cloaks. Ken bought some clothes for the cat-girl he bought... eh... was gifted... and some clothes for himself.
…
The warrior type slaves are actually much cheaper than pleasure... who would have known? So I bought one female wolf-kin, with quite cute black fur on her tail and ears... oh beast-kins are actually have only some parts of their respectful animals, while rest is human... and another one is fox-kin woman... if I would read it in some novel I would think that MC is trying to get himself a harem... and it cost me 126 gold in total. Way lower than Nova...
Oh reason why fighter slaves are cheaper, is mostly because of the training that sex slaves go through. It's quite expensive magical stuff that got... well, let's just say that they just don't have collars. And have more meek attitude. Probably that's why Nova is such... *sigh*...

“So Let's go... um... what's your names by the way?” which got me spit in my face from wolf-kin.
“Shut up human! Like I will-”
“Oh what is it? Want to fight? Sure... how do I set her free for a fight? And where can we fight?” one of the guards just shook his head.
“Sir Kuro. You would better not do it. Wolf-kin are famous for their strength and agility, so I would advise against it.”
“Yeah... so where can we fight? She won't listen to me anyway, so why not show her that I'm the alpha?”
“Think you can take me on? I would love ripping your throat!” see what I talk about? Don't want to follow me, so let's show her how useless she is... hm... why do I want to punch her so much?
“Sir with all due respect-”
“Oh come on! It's not like she wants to kill me! It's just that she wants to show me her strength! Ain't it a good thing?”
“Sir, that's not what-”
“Joe you should just go along with his wish... he's as stubborn as old geezer.” Joe? What a lame name for fantasy...
“*Sigh*... will training grounds suffice?”
“Yep! Oh and what do you get in case you won?” she snickered... hah...
“Your life!”
“OK! Then in my case it's your life for me!” she... smirked...
“That will be fine... no human is strong enough to defeat me.” arrogant, isn't she?
“But you are a slave... now were.” as I said that her collar was destroyed.
“What have you done?!”
“It's only natural to let her fight with her full power, no?” yep... facepalm...
“... Why did you do that?”
“Didn't I tell you? We will fight! Oh and you need the weapon of your choice, just as armor, so we need to go for that shop... say what-”
“I don't need a weapon to kill you, human.”
“OK, but don't cry if you lose.”
“I won't” she grins like a killer... let's grin her back... “So... you too...”
“What about the 'life bet' you didn't understand? We will fight till either of us dead, unconscious or surrendered, but let's fight till the first two, more fun that way...”
“If I win-”
“You can go free with the fox. Or not, your choice.” she ponders a bit...
…
“Come on! Let's go fight!” I can't wait for the fight.
“... fine.”
…
So we are at the training grounds, preparing for a fight... I actually prepared, it's just that I wait for her to finish that ritual of hers... some sort of tradition amongst her people before important duels. Guess 'fight for your life' is important... who knew? After some time she's gone to her 'corner'
“So start when coin drops on the ground?”
“Would you be able to sense it?” I got it! She's taunting me! Or trying to mate me... dunno... maybe just plain curiosity.
“Yep. I would prefer if it was an archery, but I still prefer guns... Joe! Toss the coin!”
“I warned you.” and so average Joe tossed the coin... as soon as it fell to the ground we started.
'First' to react was her, so she quickly leaped into the air, but was immediately met with two knives to her abdomen, which slightly surprised her, but she immediately took them out and threw back at me, and were deflected by rapier, and I started throwing rest of the knives at her. 5 out of 8 were deflected, but the rest struck her leg, shoulder and ear, last one was met with rather ferocious howl. After it she came running, but... she's too slow with my Processing Power... she tried to leap at me two more times, but fireball in the face is quite a nuisance, so she decided on running. When she got in melee range I threw my rapier at her and drew daggers, before entering our little dance.
It ended quite abruptly when I used [Mind Blast] with combination of [Telekinesis]. She didn't see neither the flying rapier nor the kick after the [Blast], so she fell unconscious by the end of the minute...
“Come on! It should only be a start! *Sigh*... Healer? Heal her, would you be so kind?” Why are they looking at me like that though?

Fair warning to all of you; I am not perfect, in fact i'm not even that good when it comes to writing. I do it mainly because I enjoy it, I always love writing stories and sometimes I will post it like I will with this one. My grammar could be better and my writing skills are so and so. I hope that by continuing to write I will grow as a writter so I would really appreciate it if you could point out my mistakes so that I can learn from them. This story will be pretty laid back as I suck at action, but that doesn't mean I won't try to add any. Release schedule is 2-4 chapters a month with each chapter about 1000 words give or take.
