《The Gods Summons》Chapter 12 : The camp
Advertisement
Carrying Valia on my shoulders , Tyrell was walking in front of me . We were walking toward the bandit camp , Yup I'm going to use the sibling to infiltrate the camp . Valia agreed as long I keep my promise which is to keep them safe.
Reaching the camp , I observed a bit to verify if they check the people before let them in . Well didn't have any , bandits are going in and out like in a super market . I could even see bandits bringing some prisoners , probably freshly captured .
Making up my mind , I wanted to know if there's a way to end this quickly .
Walking in with Valia and Tyrell , they didn't seem to pay us much attention , I guess these kind of thing is ordinary. I could see some extinct fire campfire and dozens of huge tent , but one particularly was bigger than others . On my way to the huge tent , I heard an intrusting conversation .
Bandit # 1 : "Hey , these day it appear that some of our man got killed."
Bandit # 2 : "These weakling probably failed their ambush and got themselves killed ."
Bandit # 1 : " No, I talked with one of the guys who discovered the bodies . It seems that they were the one who got ambushed and killed ."
Bandit # 2 : " Damn , how can we do our job if they're people hunting us down ? "
Bandit # 1 : " Ike Grandall is going to personally investigate about this."
Bandit # 2 : " Who's that guy ? "
Bandit # 1 : " He was an ex elite knight from the capital , he became a mercenary because he got more money that way . "
Nice to know that I reduced a bit of their numbers but I have to be extra careful now . I will have to slow down my power farming . Even though this is not a game .

I followed the bandits who have captured people with them . I entered in the tent and queue up to `report` about the sibling . Then my turn came .
Bandits accountant : " State your business . "
Wow , rude . Pointing at Valia who is still on my shoulders and Tyrell.
Mark : " They're Valia and Tyrell Grewsk , the guards told me that they're already ordered by somebody. "
Looking at his book , the accountant seem to have found what he was looking for .
Bandits accountant : " Yeah , you have to take them at this place and wait for the people that i will send to you so they can get them to the city . "
Pointing at a certain location at this map . I nodded and walked away .
I saw a lot of people , casually clothed coming in the camp .It seems that most of the bandits don't live here .
Arriving where they asked me to . I waited like asked too . I already freed Valia but Tyrell is a bit unstable so he's still tied .
Then four guys finally came, they are casually clothed .
Casually clothed guy : " We will take care of them from here . "
He motioned me to hand them the siblings .
Mmh , nice clothes . I want to go into the city too , and there's no way that I wear the bandits uniform .
Quickly casting Lightning Chain , they were paralyzed before they even noticed . I just snapped their neck one by one .
Undressing one of them to take his clothes , Lusella popped out of nowhere .
Lusella : " Finally found you ." She stared at Valia and Tyrell ." Who're they ?"
Mark : "Some sibling that I luckily save . "
Lusella : " After all these hours , you only saved two ? "
Huh ? I though she didn't care about if I saved anybody at all . Should I tell her that I was too busy sleeping ?

Mark : "Well , I-I take a little break since I couldn't find any group , ha ha... "
Why the hell I'm acting like such pussy , I should say out loud and with pride that I was sleeping !
Lusella walked toward the siblings and told them to follow her .
Mark : " Hey, what are you doing ?
Lusella : " I'm going to take them to our base and make them one of ours ."
One of ours ? They can turn them into demon ?
Mark : " Hey don't hurt them ! "
I got attached to them , specially Valia . Hehe .
Lusella : " Don't worry about it . Now keep training , and this time don't be lazy . "
They just walked away without even looking at me , did she use mind control on them or what ?
*Grow*
Mark : " Oh, I'm hungry , Let's go to the city and fill my stomach ."
Dressing the casual clothes that I 'borrowed' from the dead guys , I was head to the city. I got thru the control by giving them couple gold , these guards are greedy as shit , they would probably sell them mother if I gave enough gold.
The city looks like it was split apart , one side you have the fully trashed street with a tons of hobo and the other side full of wealthy people .
Where the hell are the middle class people !?
Obviously I moved into the wealthy area , heading to the first restaurant that I see . Looking at the menu , I couldn't believe what I'm seeing , the cheapest meal cost ten gold .
Holy molly , this is a scram. What ?! A Rainbow Chicken ? ONE HUNDRED GOLD !
After eating my rainbow chicken who gave me a rainbow of salty , sweet and spicy flavor, it was degusting . I headed to a blacksmith to buy a the most expensive steeled gauntlet . It cost me 350 gold but I seem to be well made .
Punching people bare handed gave me some painful contusion and I want to avoid breaking my cute little bones.
At the end of the days I spent 450 gold , well it's not like I'm was using my gold . So I don't really care.
Leaving the city , I put back my the bandits uniform . I was ready to farm these bandits .
I was eager to test my newly buy gauntlet , but bandits are hard to find since they're all scattered in this huge forest.
Luckily Lusella gave me a magic map who works like a GPS .
After five hours , I only managed to get rid of four group of seven bandits.
Running in the forest , that's one of my strategies to make them come out . Since when they saw me , they always ask what's going on or why I'm alone. Then I strike them when they're all gathered .
But this time I run into a guy blue haired with blue eyes . Wearing a full set of blue steeled armor . I was prepared to fight , it seem that he wasn't a bandit . And maybe he's here to hunt them like me .
Mark : " Who're you ?"
Blue steel knight: " I'm Ike Grandall , I'm here to investigate about the killing of your trash comrades ."
