Chapter 5 - Lighter

Before Amond could process the scene before him another arrow came from behind hitting between his neck and right shoulder.

AAAaaaaaaa!

He start screaming in pain and quickly turned over only to see a group of 20-25 people entering through the gate . Everyone of the were shooting arrow left and right targeting everyone. He quickly looked at girl who was still smiling, took her body and ran towards the bathroom exit.

But soon enough he felt the body was cold and there was no beat in the body , there was nothing he could do . People were screaming, panicking and running wild from one side to other. There was no way he could carry a dead body and also escape this place or defend himself.

He went to a side left the body looked at it for last time and run forward, that's when he noticed more people were entering from not only the right do but also left and the bathroom side door.

' There is no escape.' He for the second time in that day start panicking. He looked around and saw almost half of the people were dead some strong ones were defending while putting a fight . The room was filled with smell of blood sound if scream and sword clashing. But inside of him it started getting silent, he knew if he didn't do anything now he will soon die. He looked around there was a bed close to him so he took the bed and make it stand vertically making it a shield.

' The left door , the right door , the bathroom door all were covered by the attackers. No escape if not someone comes to rescue us.' Amond thought while taking out the arrow that stabbed him. After talking out the arrow he felt a unusual pain , and he guessed it was poison.

Ding!

As soon as he was trying to think about surviving the screen show up again and same as before it was locked and he couldn't do anything.

"Screen go back.... Close..... unlock..uh if you don't even open then at least don't cover my view" he start screaming desperately.

As to answer to his screem a bunch if arrows came at him he quickly covered him with the bed but for some reason the bed broke as soon as the arrow touched it.

Bang!

Clunch!

Clunch!

Somebody came in time and deflect the arrows infront of him.

"Are you stupid those arrows are made by ability users and you are trying to stop them using your bed?" Adomand said while struggling deflecting the continuous arrows.

Before non of them could move a vain from the ground start climbing throw their leg like a snake with a great speed locking them in place.

Adomand broke the vain swinging his mighty left a with great force while in motion he caught Amond with his left arm and throw Amond over his shoulder. Amond looked at the archers they were creating more arrows with their power their white robe and the white light that was created while they were making arrows make them look like a holy survents of god.

Adomand seeing more arrows coming their way he bend his legs gathered all the energy he had in his muscles then -

Boom!

He released all his energy at once making a semi-hole in the ground and reaching the ceiling, eventually breaking the ceiling. Amind now could see the blakish green sky quite clearly and feeling the air against his felt.. he felt a vibration through his body and saw tht they had landed in the surface of the ceiling of the shelter.

Amond even though Adomand didn't said anything he knew this is maybe the last time he was seeing the shelter in which his very first human friend was residing as a dead body .

Adomand before those guys came and caught them did the mighty jumps of his covering a great distance. They speed was too much for Amond to stay conscious and eventually he passed out.

"Leader two of them got away, what should we do about them?" A female asked the leader.

The leader took out a pocket watch felt it's texture with his finger smoothly then pushed the button making the uper part swing open . He looked at it and saw it was crossing their pay time .

" They didn't paid us enough to catch those who will run away. " He moved his body towards the door waking slowly he took out a gas light flickering it " Have you finished oilling the place?"

"Yes leader" A young boy replied.

" They also didn't told us to collect the core. Our job was to kill them." He flicked the lighter one last time making it lit again he blew his breath into it adding his ability making the fire everlasting.The moment he and his whole group got out from the shelter he threw the lighter in the oil . Quickly the whole shelter was covered with burning bright fire.

The leader looked at the field which was filled with a pile of newly dead bodies.

" They can have those bodies afterall they won't give us the full payment if we burn all of them."

Amond opening hus saw the same blakish green sky he saw last time. He was laying in grass. Fire light was falling in his face.

"How far are we?" Amond asked while looking at the sky feeling the cold air and ground.

"50 kilometres I guess?" Adomand replied while give wood to the fire.

"50? How long was I out?" Amond tried to sit up while looking at Adomand.

"3 hour maybe. We came here two hours ago but I didn't had anymore energy to jump like that , so here we are camping in a place near to the forest." Adomand start giving something in the fire making it fry .

"Where are we going?" Amond's stomach start growling while looking at the food getting fried.

" To the capital. " Adomand left the food in the fire and stand up.

"Why?" Amond not getting food right now laid down on the grass again.

"There is a Portal I need to go to Cubalasa." Adomand took out some staff and start doing something with it .

"Wait are we traveling to planets now?" Amond was shocked to hear that he didn't knew people form this world could travel through space.

"Me not you. You need to find a library right? And there is one in the capital. But my destination is Cubalasa where my guild reside." Not knowing Amond is a transmigrator and didn't knew nothing about this world , Adomand thought Amond asked if Amond would be traveling with him as well.

After exchanging this lines they didn't knew what to talk about , it was like two introvert people were in the same place thinking what to talk about with other.

"Who were those people?" Amond asked to see if there was new info.

"No I don't know exactly about them but I heard somewhere about people who wear white robes with golden border like them. I guess they are mercenary who works for different cults who says them servants of all gods. " Adomand took out a pot , gaved something inside it and went on adding more staf.

"Gods huhh! Well why did you saved me? You could have running away faster if it wasn't for me." Amond continued the questions while looking at the food that was preparing to be cooked.

"Huh, didn't we already agreed we will travel together? What's more reason than that? After all it's always better be two than one while travelling an unknown place. ..... Oh don't get me even if I wasn't alone or the place wasn't unknown I would have still saved you after all we promised to travel together and that's all need." Adomand placed the pot above the fire and got away 5 steps from it and lay down there. " So sice you had a nice sleep its is your time to stay awake and guard us , oh that will be after we eat so meanwhile you can take a nap."

"How long it will take to be cooked?" Amond knew he won't be able to sleep with the hunger he had now.

"35-45 minutes. Well if you don't wanna nap then I am gonna take one." Adomand turned around and start snoring.

While amond still thinking about the last smile of Fay and the sinister smiles of those supposed to be mercenary. One day he will avenge them but now he has a mission already.
