Chương 124: Ch. 124 Lending a hand.
( Third Pov )
" Here's the albino deer." Yuto spoke as he dropped the albino deer on the table.
" Thank you, lad, I've been trying to get this one for a while. But they haven't managed to catch it." The butcher spoke as he gave Yuto and Atalanta their payment.
They both nodded and left the shop.
" Well, this is a start." Yuto spoke as he followed Atalanta.
" We should head to the next city." Atalanta stated.
" Hold on, why don't we enjoy this city for a while?" Yuto suggested.
" I want to get stronger. I can't do that here, obviously." Atalanta stopped and looked at Yuto.
" Sigh, alright, how about instead of hunting animals, why not hunt criminals." Yuto suggested as he pointed at the wanted poster of a murderer.
Atalanta looked at the poster that had a 25 gold coin reward for capture and 15 gold coins for dead.
" Alright." Atalanta agreed.
Ripping the poster off the wall, Atalanta read it.
" So?" Yuto asked.
" Last seen around in Athens." Atalanta replied.
" Athens!!?? That's a little too far, isn't it?" Yuto questioned.
Atalanta nodded.
" Sigh, forget it, that's like 5 or 6 cities southeast." Yuto spoke as he walked away.
" Well, where do you want to go?" Yuto looked backed to Atalanta.
" Hmm, how about we just travel randomly." Atalanta suggested.
" Let the wind take the course, huh? Sure." Yuto shrugged.
Yuto and Atalanta began to travel once more.
They both walked on the road, heading north.

" Help!! Please!!! my baby boy is missing!!"
A young woman shouted on the streets.
Yuto and Atalanta looked at each other as they both moved forward towards the distressed mother.
" Excuse me, perhaps we could help." Yuto gently spoke as he smiled at the lady.
" Yes!! please!!! my son is missing!!" She fanatically
" Please calm down, tell us what happened." Atalanta spoke gently.
Yuto looked at her with shock as he saw her using a gentle voice.
Atalanta, seeing Yutos face, ignored him.
" In the woods!!! I last heard him playing in the woods!!" The woman cried out.
" We'll find your son. You have my word." Yuto spoke.
" Thank you very much, kind ones!!" The woman held Yuto and Atalantas' hand.
A few minutes passed as Atalanta and Yuto were tracking a kid in the woods.
Atalanta managed to find a set of small footprints.
" Here. This must be the child's." Atalanta spoke as she stood up from looking at the footprint.
" I don't think the kid is alone." Yuto said as he pointed behind a bunch with a set of adult footprints.
" Kidnapping?" Atalanta whispered.
" Human traffickers, probably to make the kid a slave." Yuto spoke.
Atalanta looked up to him.
" How do you know?" She questioned.
" Does it matter. We'll have to save the kid anyway." Yuto spoke calmly as he followed the trail.
Yuto calmly walked forward. And Atalanta followed after him.
The both of them walked through the trees. Yuto spoke, still looking forward.
" The woman wasn't wearing any noble or rich clothing of high status. And if they wanted to kidnap her child, they would've sent their personal guards or asked for a ransom." Yuto paused for a while as Atalanta nodded.
" Then why didn't the city gaurds help?" Atalanta questioned as she looked at Yuto.
" Haven't you noticed? The gaurds avoided her. They must've been paid off. I'm guessing their higher-ups were as well, seeing how they didn't get punished for ignoring their duty." Yuto spoke as he kept looking forward.
' If there's one thing I despise in the entire world, it's the fact people of higher power abuse that authority, like the gods. Controlling the mortals like they're puppets just for their own amusement.' Yuto thought.
Atalanta couldn't see his face, but she knew he was angry.
" It must take a lot of money to bribe them. So we'll probably be looking for someone of higher power with a lot of money. A merchant or politician or someone else."
" Here." Yuto stopped behind a tree as Atalanta did as well.
The trail leads to a cave.
Yuto and Atalanta saw one man standing outside acting as a guard.
" Him. We'll need to capture him for info." Yuto spoke as he looked towards Atalanta.
Before Atalanta could speak, Yuto was already in front of the man.
" Gahh!" Before the man could speak, Yuto held him to the ground by gripping his hand over his mouth.
* Shing *
Revealing the hidden blade, Yuto held it over his eyes.
The man had fear in his eyes as he saw the blade reflect the sun.
" How many are in that cave?" Yuto coldly spoke.
Hearing his voice, the man looked up, noticing it was a kid. He felt humiliated but overall overconfident.
Trying to shake Yuto off, but the time he realized he couldn't, Yuto spoke.
" Wrong choice."
He heard before he felt extreme pain in his hand.
Yuto grabbed the man hand and ripped off his some of his skin and muscles.
" MMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!" A loud muffled shout was all Atalanta could hear as she saw the brutality of Yuto.
Standing in shock as she saw him using his blade to carve him up as the man was on the verge of death but for some reason, he was still alive.
Yuto inserted life force to keep the man alive.
" Now. Tell me how many are in there?" Yuto coldly repeated.
The man with a face full of tears and scars looked at Yuto in horror.
" Hmm, did I go too far? Why don't I fix that." Yuto spoke as he looked down at the man before holding the hidden blade up.
" Hmmmhmhhhmhmm!!!" The man tried to scream.
" Tell. Me." Yuto stated as he held the man by the hair.
" F.....F...F..FI...FI....V...V.VI.." The man could barely squeak out.
" Huh? what that? you gotta speak louder."Yuto spoke as he dropped the man.
" Sniff...sniff...F...FI...VE...FI..VE...Sniff...sniff..
please....n..n.no...m..m.more.." The man begged.
" And the kid?" Seeing no response, Yuto deemed him useless.
" Pleaseleavemealonepleaseleavemealone." The man muttered.
" Sigh. Sure." Yuto spoke as he stomped on the man throat.
* Crack *
The man instantly died.
Yuto crouched down and planted an explosion paper on the body.
Yuto stood up and looked back at Atalanta.
" Let's go."
Atalanta just nodded and readied her bow.
