Chương 15: Town Festival?
(Note: possible trigger warning....)
We were getting closer and closer to the town and could hear the hustle and bustle of the crowd, it seems to be a very lively and active town. Houses entered our vision, and people were running everywhere. I didn't expect them to come to meet us, but they didn't even pay attention to us.
"Well, we finally reached civilization"
"Do you think so?"
Everyone was so focused on their own work and shouting with excitement, I wonder if there's some kind of festival... the decoration is a bit extreme with flames on the houses and the performance is a bit cliche. With one side chasing the other around with weapons in hand.
"What a strange festival don't you think so, Kurisu? Besides, wouldn't it be a problem if the fire gets out of control and the town burns down?"
"What the hell are you thinking? No matter how you look at it, the town is being attacked by bandits."
"Well, you can also think that way, I'm just trying to think positively? It's not like we know their customs." Then a mature woman in simple clothing approaches us followed by two men who do not seem to care about their hygiene.
"Are you carrying out some kind of festival?"
"H-help please"
I ask her to confirm while enduring Kurisu's gaze , the villager runs and stands behind us and the men who followed her set their sights on us.
"Wooh , we hit the jackpot. These are much better than the girls we've seen in town."
"I want the little girl, I like them to be more tender"
[Bang]
The man who opened his mouth about wanting me, and calling me little girl falls dead with a hole in his head. The other freezes looking at the gun.
"H- Hey, what's up, get up, didn't you want the little girl?"
"Don't waste your words, the only people who can communicate with him now are the dead. But don't worry, I will send you with him seeing as you're so worried for him"
Finishing my words I aim my gun and shoot. Do you think I'm inhuman? What can I say? I'm not so naive to believe that words could make him see reason and change his lifestyle. Well, if it were a beauty I would think about it. Everyone has to strive for their own happiness.
Besides, above all why would I put my own ass at risk, and anyone who wants to take Kurisu's virginity against her will, will meet my Beretta and [Black Moon] first.
Who cares that they're human? That is easy to answer, anyone who aims for my ass is no different than a goblin to me, so if I can kill goblins without regret then that same result awaits the others.
At least that's my way of thinking, Kurisu shook a little when she saw me kill them. I hope she gets used to this and leaves behind a little of her entrenched values from earth for her own good.
The sound caught the attention of a few people in the surroundings and among them was a bandit that carried a bow who aimed at us.
"Knock down the one who carries the bow Kurisu"
"B-but he is a person"
Tch, too late, he shot. I step forward covering her, the arrow flies and hits my shoulder.
I only feel a little of the impact before it gets repelled by my armor. I immediately shoot him with my weapon.
"We need to cover ourselves with the houses, we are easy targets for them"
I take Kurisu's hand and pull her to shelter us behind a wall of a house and while doing so, I shout at the villager who sat on the floor.
"Hey you, if you don't want to be killed don't just stand there"
"Y-yes!"

Damn, isn't it a bit unfair that the count starts at 88%? I can't just stand here without doing anything ... the problem is that I can't leave Kurisu alone.
"Kurisu a mission to save the people was activated ... I need to be sure that at least you can defend yourself. If anyone approaches you with bad intentions, aim and pull the trigger"
"B-but if I shoot I can kill them ..."
I take Kurisu's face with my hands and closely look into her eyes with the strongest and most serious expression I have, telling her...
"I don't give a damn what happens to other people, as long you're safe, everyone else is dispensable. If someone attacks you even if it's a villager wanting to take advantage of the situation, empty the magazine of your weapon on him, I will take full responsibility for the consequences. Is that clear?"
"U- unn "
"Well, take out your Beretta and stay alert"
After releasing her she takes her gun as told, the villager was watching us anxiously and when I look at her she trembles a little.
"If you want to be safe stay by her side ... and you better not try anything strange"
"O-of course, I won't do anything, I'll just stay with her and help in any way I can"
I nod to the two of them, and then I approach the edge of the wall and poke my head out to see the other side. No one seems to be following us, I run to find my next target and passing a few houses I hear a scream from inside.
" Nooo ... please let me go, I don't want this ... sniff ... please stop"
"Shut up bitch!! You'll see how much you enjoy it right away hehehe ..."
There was no need to be a genius to know what was happening inside, I enter through the open door and inside were two people who I could read above their heads [Thief level 8] and [Villager level 5]. The bandit was holding a girl with torn clothes while trying to lower his pants.
"H-help me ... no, please run ... get away from here"
" Hehehe ... it seems like this is my lucky day ... she's a bit small, but prettier than this bitch ... wait a little bit and I'll be right with you"
When I approach they notice me, my first impression of the girl is good, because seeing my appearance even in her situation she worried about me. As for the thief ... he was a simple bastard with nothing special about him. I look at the latter and answer him smiling while walking forward, standing less than a meter away from the man.
"I don't like waiting ... and it's a shame for you, but I like being the one who penetrates"
" Guek ..."
My sword pierces his chest that was completely unprotected because his hands on his pants. He looked at me with fear and pain in his eyes, but I just keep smiling and before he loses his consciousness forever, I whisper.
"Quiet, it will only hurt a little at the beginning but soon the pain will go away and you will feel better"
The thief wanted to say something, but only managed to choke on his own blood, closing his eyes and losing consciousness he dies so I withdraw my sword. I focus my attention on the girl, her appearance could not be considered extremely beautiful but her features were still pleasant to the eye.
"Are you alright?"
"T-thanks… I am now … I don't know what would have happened if he continued"
I do know, but let's not put her through more by forcing that information on her now. Thinking about it, I didn't ask the other villagers anything... I was too rushed, so let's get some information from her.
"Do you know how many thieves are attacking the town? Or who leads them?"
"M-many ... a scary man is the one who gave them orders"
Haaa ... what a waste, guess I will have to find out the information for myself.
"I-I'm so sorry ... I couldn't be very helpful"
"Don't worry and try to hide so they won't catch you again, and before you ask, I can't bring you with me since I'm going to kill the other bandits"
I guess I frowned when she answered the question because she apologized right away. I turn around to continue looking for bandits and when I hear her move, I spoke again to prevent her from following me, then she turns around and seems to look for a place to hide.
Leaving the house, I see three more bandits who are patrolling the area or looking for a target, I walk towards them and when they are within my reach, the explosions of the bullets sound out. When I wanted to take care of the third bandit, I only heard a click ... I had spent all my bullets.
I put away the Beretta and charge with my sword towards him, in just a few seconds we are face to face, before he can do anything, I cut his wrist.
" Ghaaaa ... d-damn brat, I'll kill you ... no, I'll capture you and make you be our new mascot."
"Where is your boss? How many people are in your group?"
"W-wait for me to put my hands on you, I will make you pay you damn whore"
While he continues to curse me, I apply force in the arm where he lost his hand... I wouldn't mind if he insulted me, my problem was that they keep mistaking me for a woman. Fuuu , with my appearance I guess this won't change soon. Nailing the tip of my sword in his shoulder I shout.
"Answer if you don't want to lose another limb"
" Aaahh , D-die cheap whore, you just have to wait and they will come and deal with you properly"
" Tch , you are not useful to me then. Go and keep company with your other friends in hell"
Without saying more, his head flies, I honestly prefer to kill them with the gun. I have no problem with taking their lives, but the feeling of cutting someone similar to you and seeing it closely while the light in their eyes goes out is not really pleasant.
I walk and change the magazine at the same time. I hear shouts from inside a house and a scene like the one before is taking place inside, unfortunately for the woman I didn't arrive on time ... and the progress was more advanced than before.
The woman cried while 2 thieves took advantage of her. I approach, but she was too distressed and they were too absorbed in what they were doing so no one notices me. I took the one who was r*ping her from the back by his leather armor and pulled him.
"What the hell, who the-"
[ Bang ]
With the shout the other two people in the room also notice me, I kick the other man away from the woman and he die without much resistance like his partner. The woman gets up and with the remains of the clothes she still wears, tries to cover herself, I buy a sheet in the system and put it on her.
"No one will hurt you anymore"
"Hic ... snif ... M-my husband"
I follow her gaze while she is sobbing and in another room of the house there is a body lying on the floor. I'm not good at this kind of situation...
"Try to live enough for both of you... I'm sorry, I need to go"
"N-no, don't leave me alone .. ,. hic- sniff ... please"
"I will look for the other thieves and take revenge for your husband. Hide somewhere while I end everything."
She looked at me for a moment and then nodded and in tears asks me not to forgive any of them. I get up and walk to the exit after promising her without giving any more words of comfort. When something happens to you listening to others trying to comfort you seems pointless to me, the only reason they can comfort you is because the other person is fine, only you know what you're going through.
In my opinion sometimes the best remedy is only time and the support of people you trust. When I leave the house a group of men are approaching talking to each other. They seemed in a bad mood, but when they see me it seems as if their day gets better.
"The boss's orders to come and check the strange sounds were not so bad after all, we seem to have found a treasure"
" Hehehe ... the one who catches her first has the first turn"
"It seems high quality, if the boss finds out that we ruin her, he will kill us all"
"He doesn't have to find out"
"He's right, if we keep our mouth shut he won't know what happened"
While they run to where I am, I walk to them, not everything about this body is bad, due to my appearance, other people seem to lower their guard and consider me as someone helpless. The first one comes a few steps away from me and I take the hilt of [Black Moon] and make a diagonal cut from the bottom up.
The second one is surprised when he sees my sword and with his eyes wide open grabs at his throat where the blade just passed. The third takes a step back so I charge and thrust my sword at him and kick him away, removing my sword from his body. The fourth having enough time takes out a saber, with my left hand I take out my Beretta and before he makes a move a bullet goes through his skull.
The fifth is paralyzed and just watches me as if he saw a demon, I approach with both weapons in my hands and then ask with a smile.
"Will you tell me where your boss is or do you want to accompany your friends to the next life?"
"M-my Boss?"
"Yes, where is your boss and how many of you are left?"
"H-he's in the town square choosing who can be sold for a good price and our group was 27 men and the boss. D-don't kill me ... I'll do what you want"
"Throw your weapons away, kneel and shut your mouth !! "
So a little over half of them are left, after he does what I order him to, I refill all the magazines. With [Black Moon] I made a light cut on my arm and put blood under my nose and the edges of my mouth, I thought about using the blood of the bandits, but I was disgusted just thinking about it. Finishing I speak to the thief again and after sheathing my sword I point to the Beretta...
"See this?"
"Yes!"
"As you can see, it can throw small pieces of iron at high speed and can easily kill a man."
I point out to his partner that died from a shot and the thief nods strongly, then I told him to get up and he stands up trembling.
"Turn around"
When he turns around, I stand by his side and place the tip of the weapon between his buttocks, he trembles and gives me a pleading look with fear. I don't have any strange hobbies so you can be calm as long as you follow my orders.
"If you don't want to end up with another hole in the ass, you better follow my orders and not try anything strange"
"Y-yes!"
"Take me by the neck with your hand and lead me to your boss, and be careful what you do, unless you want to find out what is faster, your fingers or the piece of iron that comes out of my weapon"
With his trembling hand, he grabs my neck, after order him to start moving we went towards the square. In a few minutes we reach an open area with a large group of people gathered. Those in control were the armed robbers while the villagers were on their knees surrounded.
"Walk to your boss and say you found me hiding in a house in the town"
"Y-yes"
I speak to him in a low voice in which only the two of us can hear clearly, he quickly answers me and looks for the boss in the area with his eyes. Without taking too long, he goes in the direction of a group of 7 bandits gathered who are talking to each other, shouting at them.
"Boss !! Boss !! You must look at the treasure we found hidden in the village"
With his voice, the whole group of people observes us, of the 7 bandits, the one who seems the most muscular frowns and tells us to come closer as we walk with hurried steps to him.
" Ooh it really is a treasure, it is good that you group of bastards could think enough not to ruin her. Expect a good reward when we share the part that belongs to you ... and others? "
"T-they kept looking to see if there was any other goods around, I came quickly before they were tempted by her"
"Good job ... but looking at her she is really beautiful. She would reach a high price... or maybe I should keep her for myself hahahaha"
"Oh boss you can't forget us too"
"That's right chief, if she stays in the camp she should serve everyone"
"Close your damn mouths!! I will decide what to do once we finish with all this "
"Che, it's not fair"
While they were talking to each other I watched for those who had long-range weapons since they would be annoying, it was good that the 3 who had bows were around their boss.
"I forgot, did you find out what those strange sounds were?"
"T-that ..."
"What happen?"
"Those sounds came from this"
I said removing my gun from the ass of the thief who brought me and aiming at the boss with it, he looks at me because of the sudden interruption of my voice and then his pupils focus on what I had in my hands.
[Bang]
