Capítulo 20: Chapter 20 - Reverence and A Random Encounter (1)
"Ranustin Kingdom soldiers?"
Feihren thoroughly checked the scanner In front of him as he verified that these were indeed people from the Ranustin kingdom, but to Feihren's surprise, the entirety of this thousand-man army appeared differently on the radar-like map.
"Gray dots? They mean no harm?"
If one were to meet such huge amount of people that were wearing heavy armor and carrying weaponry, one would immediately think that they are heading to an all-out war! However, oddly enough, it seems that the situation right now is totally different. Instead of high hostility, these people emit an aura of cautiousness. It is almost as if they were looking or waiting for something.
"I don't think they will necessarily harm you human. Besides, they are definitely no match for you now that you have the great Me by your side."
The carbine suggested that Feihren should approach this party to ask them about what was really going on. Feihren immediately began to think up a plan that he could use without raising suspicion on who he was.
Feihren decided to approach the Ranustin Kingdoms army directly as he walked in their direction. To avoid attracting unwanted hostility, he approached them from the front, changing his equipment to a [Rookie] tier armor instead of his usual Assault Rogue armor, and hiding the Demonic Carbine behind his back.
Acting like random passerby, Feihren neared the Ranustin army as he walked up to the leader-looking person at the front section of the formation of these traveling soldiers.
Weird gazes were thrown at the seemingly lost adventurer that was approaching them. They were not the least bit threatened by the seemingly ordinary man approaching them, and just assumed that he was about to ask for directions. As the entirety of the army started to halt, the leader soon approached the man that was in their way.
"Excuse me kind sir, do you need anything? If not, then could you please make way for us?" The leader politely approached Feihren.
'Oh, these are some kind fellows right here. I thought they would be pissed off at me for randomly blocking them. Okay, change of plans!'
And by a change of plan, he meant that he was going to completely change the already built up plan in his head! At first, without thinking about it that much, his plan was to provoke this Ranustin party into attacking him and ending up with a massacre here. It would benefit him by having farmed a ton of general exp in one go!
'I told you that was a terrible plan human!'
The Demonic Carbine then thought to himself,
'Though I agree with the deviously decisive plan revolving around mass-murder, there are right times and places for that. What you almost did was the bad kind of doing "bad"!'
Feihren wasn't necessarily evil at heart, he was just thinking of the "benefits." The people of the Ranustin kingdom weren't necessarily his enemies, but they were also not his friends. Feihren holds no relation to any of their people in the first place.
"A good attitude really goes a long way…" Feihren said those words aloud unconsciously as he slowly nodded his head in satisfaction. "Being an asshole just gets you killed." He continued to mutter.
'What's with this creepy man?' The leader, who had just introduced himself, can't help but wonder what the hell this guy was nodding for all of a sudden!
Feihren finally noticed the weird stares everyone was giving him, especially the leader, whom was quite close to him already. "Ah, I apologize for speaking out those gibberish thoughts. Let me introduce myself. I'm Gama Feihren, I live around these parts. I can see that you guys are from the Ranustin Kingdom, right? I'm heading in that direction, but it seems that you guys are looking for something around here?"
The calm demeanor of the stranger made the leader and the people nearby feel a sense of friendliness. "Ah, I apologize for not introducing myself immediately. I am General Rey Noe of the Ranustin Kingdom. Hmm, you do indeed seem to be from around these parts sir. Would you happen to be familiar with the happenings in the eastern part of the Wolfenstein kingdom recently?"
"Wolfenstein Kingdom?"
...
The entirety of the army halted as the head troop had seemingly stopped for something important. Being in the middle part of the flank, Claire and Matthew were curious as to what was happening that would make their entire group of a thousand people stop just like that. Being the bulkier person, Claire supported Matthew as she boosted him atop the tree as to defeat the height disparity between the other surrounding trees. It looked dangerous and ridiculous, but curiosity would definitely kill the cat if it keeps trying to scratch that itch.
"It's him!?" Matthew exclaimed
"Him? Who do you mean? Damn it Matthew, stop playing the pronoun game."
"No no, the guy back then. The one who transformed into a Titan!"
Without a second thought, both of them rushed towards the front troop. They had to inform the general that he was what they were looking for!
...
"Wolfenstein Kingdom?"
Without another word uttered from Feihren, two people rushed towards Feihren and General Rey. Feihren narrowed his eyes at those approaching figures.
"Oh! It's those guys from back then."
Weirdly enough, Feihren just did a friendly wave, as if they were old.
"You know them?" General Rey curiously asked.
"We've met a couple of times in the past." Feihren said as he smiled, dismissing the curiosity of the general.
Still gasping for air after rushing forward in a hurry.
"S-sir…This man, hu… hu… *cough*" Matthew was still out of breath from running all the way up here.
"This man is the one we are looking for!*cough*" Claire continued where he had left off as she recovered her breath more quickly.
"Him?" General Rey questioned as he started to examine Feihren from head to toe "I admit he has a good physique, even in comparison to a soldier, but someone who could wield the powers of the Titans? I highly doubt it."
"No sir really. He is the one we are looking for. I couldn't have mistaken it!"
"Titans?" Feihren suddenly interjected, "You mean, you saw me while I was chasing off those phony bandits huh…Oh well, I guess I can't really deny it, I am that Titan"
'Smooth move human…' The Ancient Demon Lord wanted to facepalm so hard… If only he had arms and a face...
"But then again, why would you be looking for me, to begin with? If it was about those dead scouts of your kingdom, do I have to apologize for it? They attacked me first you know?"
But as he was asking these questions, the general bowed deeply before Feihren, "Oh great descendant of titans, we humbly seek for your guidance and strength in aiding us on our endeavors."
'What the… what?' Both the Ancient Demon Lord and Feihren were suddenly caught off-guard with what was happening. Moments later, the other soldiers behind the general followed suit after the heard him mention the word 'Titan'.
"Wait, what are you all doing?!" Feihren was now flustered and blushing at the shocking scene that was unfolding in front of him. A thousand people suddenly started bowing towards him. What the hell is up with all this?!
Not even given enough room and time to explain, another event started unfolding, as a very familiar ominous aura started to creep up behind Feihren... 'Ugh, why does trouble come in bundles? Like damn, couldn't they just form a single file line and wait' … Feihren turned towards the source of the familiar aura that had suddenly appeared. The soldiers of the Ranustin Kingdom also felt the ominous aura as they stood up and readied themselves for combat.

"Damn it demon brat, what's with you and these monkeys anyway?"
"They're really smart you know, and they have opposable thumbs, so it helps quite a lot." The Ancient Demon Lord answered earnestly
"Eh, so does this mean we found a random fragment of yours out here? This might be a blessing in disguise then." Feihren excitedly said with a devious grin on his face.
"Want to test out how strong you are against your own consciousness?"
Feihren muttered as he glanced at the gun on his waist.
