Capítulo 3: The first fight begins!
Outiside the Lyceum was a Suburban town with nothing but houses either side of his path. It was probably a worker settlement inhabited by the working class people that were employed by the Lyceum and other nearby organizations.
Which meant that the only entertainment around here was gossip. This was not a place where he could stand out much less take out his claymore. Don't even bother displaying his Benediction Manifest. It could start of a tending rumour and That would spell disaster.
Back at the Lyceum. Avasti was shouting at the old examiner.
"You Idiot! didn't I tell you to do background checks before this sort of thing and why the hell is the blood acquisition altar broken I thought I replaced the broken one with it early in the morning"
"B..Br..Broother that broke when that guys kid was given acquiescence "
"What?"
Outside along the suburban towns streets Harridan felt peculiarly Jumpy.
Not that he was relaxed before but being a Combatant and a skilled warrior taught him to respect his intuition and instinctively Harridan reached for his Claymore.
"Get him!!" a cry resounded from within one of the houses.
Harridan was not surprised He held his battle stance and Bellowed "Get out All of you !"
The ones who had sprang out from buildings halted and looked at one another. There were five of them in all. That was all of them there weren't any other people waiting.
"You heard me All of you !" Harridan bellowed and his sword gleamed in the sun. There was a faint glow, an aura around his being. It was threatening to look at.
"I won't say another time, quit playing and get out!"
"This guy has lost his senses seeing us cornering him at such a disadvantageous position " one of the guys who sprang at him said and took his sword out it resembled a sabre and he lunged at the Harridan who was having a baby in his right hand and the claymore in his left.
Harridan wasn't wearing any sort of armor too. There was something odd about the whole situation before the guy could place what it was actually, He was split into two halves and each half fell on either side of Harridan
It wasn't bloody at all , the cut had somehow seared blood from spilling out cauterizing the cut as it was made.
Not a drop had spilled on the ground but the guy was dead alright.
"The guy who wishes to be the next corpse shall step forth" Harridan said in a perfectly calm tone.
The assassins were breaking cold sweats by the dozen.
" The Goddamn hell has broken loose And a Demon must have escaped." One of the assassins screamed.
"HE! He holds a claymore ! That is a two handed sword He is just lifting it with a single hand!"Another assassin spoke with a jittery voice.
"You Idiots look not a drop of blood has fallen on the ground and he hasn't budged from that place" one of the assassins with a scar on his face spoke, he wasn't looking all that good either.
"If any of you value your lives more than a bag of bullshit beg for your lives then you can turn and leave alive " Harridan bellowed. He looked like a war god in all his fury.
"I'm outta here man! I want out!" one of the assassins said and turned to run away.
Swooosh!
an arrow flew from nowhere and punched a hole through his skull and he dropped dead.
"You brought reinforecements! you coward!" the scarred assassin scowled.
You guys gang up on a single man with a child and you call me a coward. Perfect flawless logic, Harridan thought.
"They must be the guys he was calling out earlier" One of the assassins said with a nervous shiver." They might be after this guy too" he added.
The three guys ganged up with their backs towards one another and shouted "We are on the same side why do you insist on fighting among us while the enemy is still alive"
"heh heh hahahaa!"
A mocking laughter was heard.
It echoed from all around the streets and it was so loud.
There seemed to be atleast a hundred different voices and what was scary was that there might be still people who remained silent.
"I am already in a bad mood if you guys insist on playing, Then Its fine by me ! Alley-oop!" Harridan said threw up something as he spoke. There was a bright flash of rosy light and then in an instant it was gone.
It was as if the sun had paid a special visit to that spot and gone back to the sky instantly.
A terrible scream. A host of screams could be heard from all around. There was no damage done to the surroundings.
But there were wails coming from all sides and a few guys had appeared out of the houses. They were in throes of death. They were about to breath their last. All because of a simple flash of light from Harridan's sword.
There were dead people all throughout the street. The sight of which would freeze the viewers heart.
There was no doubt. A trending rumour would ve created. It won't be a wonder even if it became a myth or a legend.
The three assassins were so nervous that they would have had a heart attack if someone came from their back and said "Boo!".
They were completely unharmed but they were on the verge of tearing up for they had seen true horror.
This guy can turn any place into a graveyard in the blink of an eye and they were planning on taking this guy down. What the heck were they thinking?
The assassin with the scarred face decided to confront Harridan about it. He dropped his sword and dropped his armour and even took off his shirt. It was a show of submission.
Harridan was unfazed by this display and was looking up "Gotcha!" saying so he caught something that fell from the sky.
It was Yuse wrapped in a bundle of cloth.
"This guy is crazy! " one assassin said and ran away from that place. The other guy followed suit.
"What I needed two hands to do that move and I surely can't give my baby to you"
The scarred assassin stayed back and stared at Harridan he was awe-struck.
"Please forgive me ! " As he said these words he prostrated before Harridan.
"Say your name" Harridan ordered.
"I am called Matthew Ingris Samuel MIS for short. an assassin of the lodge of Florein, but from this instant you can say that I am your slave" he completely lay flat on the ground and waited for a response.
He waited patiently for a reply.
After a few seconds he rose up and saw the Harridan was nowhere to be seen.
"Boss atleast tell me how you killed those people !" he shouted.
"I'm behind you dumbass!" A familiar irritated voice growled.
"What you saw was the Killer's Sin Extermination, Breathe a word and you loose your life" Harridan said without emotion.
"Never in my dreams, Never EVEN in my dreams!" Matthew said in a servile tone.
"Say! Matthew you know a decent school around here" Harridan asked.
"No boss there aren't any but I know of a teacher, he doesn't accept students anymore though"
"Where is he though?"
"near the Kartingale forest Catacombs "
"Catacombs? Does he have a wierd fetish or what?"
"No Boss! he is a great Necromancer"
"A Teacher and Necromancer! I was searching desperately for one."
"Why Boss? need to raise someone from the dead? that is not a good thing boss"
"Necromancy just animates it doesn't ressurect . I know all that but still I have something to take care of . Do You know the exact location of the catacombs?"
"Nice first prove your loyalty by taking me there"
"Boss He is sort of like an unfriendly person"
"Says the guy who came to kill me"
"Boss you can kill me anytime you want if you are disturbed by that"
"you are too ugly for me to kill"
"that was funny ,Boss. About that flash that
incident? "
Harridan exhaled shaking his head.
What the heck! he comes to kill me and now we are supposed to be pals, Fate is surely funny!
"Matthew you know who am I ?"he asked Matthew.
"Boss is a swordsman of a great origin"
"Shut yer trap. I am the general killer Harridan , A wanted man fleeing from facing the punishment of Treason of the highest order"
"Which general did you kill Boss Harridan?"
Without doubt Matthew was shocked. They had hired him to kill a swordsman and he was one who had killed many before in his life.
The guys who hired him didn't say anything about the target except thata he was a swordsman
He was supposedly hired to be a lab rat a test for the guys who had been actually waiting for in hiding.
"General Arvantris Gallegher" replied Harridan
Matthew knees felt like rubber and he had trouble standing. Arvantris Gallegher was a legend who had the manifest marks of two deities Imobium and Osmodius he was a little short of becoming a contest to the throne.
He was killed?
he was thinking that he was invincible.
By this guy?
he was trying to kill this guy a few minutes back.
"Who exactly are you boss ?"
"I am Harridan Fenson, The third prince of this country "
"Oh my God ! "
MIS the Matthew* fainted from the shock.
