Different from the pitch dark of the night at the forest, the night at the Bareland city is covered with beautiful lights from the magic lights that covered the whole city and from the colorful lights that emitted by the city lord’s diamond castle.
The scene is very beautiful and gorgeous, it’s an awe-inspiring scenery. But in Oz’s eyes, it’s just a city that shrouded by greed and malice. It’s a huge tree that grew from a seed of malice, having only rotten fruits that will appear from it.
Despite the kingdom’s current situation, the city selfishly focuses on its prosperity rather than the kingdom’s safety. If the city supports the kingdom, the story will be completely different, the kingdom will get a great boost of power and wealth that will make Gracefield kingdom and Potterland kingdom cower.
As Oz wander around the city in stealth, jumping from roofs to roofs, he saw that the majority of the city’s residents are slaves that got forced to work by the wealthy and the nobles that live here. They sleep on the streets and small hut while their master sleep inside their huge and fancy houses.
(Well, it’s not that surprising since most of the people with wealth and power are people like them…) (Oz)
Even though Oz isn’t surprised by the scene he saw, but it didn’t mean he didn’t felt any anger or disgust towards the nobles and the merchants that lived here.
(Okay… Let’s not be stupid…) (Oz)
Oz inhales and exhales a huge amount of air to regain his calm.
(Now, since there’s a lot of slaves here, there must be someplace where they bought them from, right?) (Oz)
Oz continues his search for a slave market, different than the other cities, Oz couldn’t found any slave market at the corners of the city. Oz continues his search until he arrived in front of the biggest market district of the city.
“Don’t tell me…” (Oz)
Oz slowly enters the market district and it turns out that inside the beautiful designs of the district, it contains a lot of cages that contains various kind of slaves.
Looking at the elves, beastmen, half-elves, and other demi-humans locked inside the cage with their eyes that seemed to have lost the hope to live is enough to fuel a great amount of anger inside of Oz’s heart, but when Oz saw that even a human, their own race is also enslaved by those bastards, Oz’s heart slowly got consumed by hatred as the former owner of the body’s memories of being a slave got repeated inside of his head.
Badum! Badum! Badum!
“Wha-!?” (Oz)
Oz’s heartbeat suddenly increased at a terrifying speed, he’s sweating profusely and his left arm is under a cruciating pain as if his left hand got burned by a fire.
(Master!) (Fenrir and Reo)
(Calm down, Fenrir, Reo. Looks like I’ve made a wrong decision coming here, I forgot that this curse the Demon Emperor gave me grow from hatred) (Oz)
(Both of you, don’t come out unless I command you, okay? It looks like my deductions are right, but it might be exceeding my expectation a little bit) (Oz)
Whoosh!
Oz ran with his highest speed towards the barren land outside the city. When Oz stopped, Oz immediately summons his staff the Defiler of the Banished, Ataraxia.
“8, no, 10, huh. I’m honored, what a grand welcome you gave me…” (Oz)
“Demons…” (Oz)
Following Oz’s words, 10 figures appear surrounding Oz, Oz could see their hesitant when Oz said “Demons,”.
“To know our existence here, you’re not a normal human, are you? Are you a hero?” One of the demons that had a large built said.
“Well this is quite a surprise, I heard that the one that called himself the bandit king has a huge build and a red hair. To think that he’s a demon, that’s rather surprising,” Oz said with a wry smile.
“I’m asking you, human!” The demon emits his enormous blood lust. But facing the enormous blood lust of the demon, Oz remains idle and indifferent.
“Patience, demons. Patience is gold, don’t you know that? Anyways, nope, I’m not a hero,” Oz said with a bold attitude.
“You… Then who are you!? To be able to maintain composure and not even raise your caution a little bit when facing me, one of the 72 demon kings’ murderous intent, who are you, human?” The demon said as a hint of annoyance could be sensed from the demon’s tone.
“Hm? Your murderous intent is nothing special, you know? Even if all of you emits your murderous intent, it won’t make me frightened for even a bit, you know?” Oz said with a mocking attitude.
“Who am I, you ask?” Oz’s eyes suddenly turn sharp, making the demons to get cautious. He laughed a bit inside his heart when he saw a hint of fear from those kings of demons.
Oz immediately summons his emperor equipment from his slime clone before saying, “A magician,”
***************************************************
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sound of doors opened, people vomit, cries, and swears suddenly enveloped the city with ruckus.
Since Albus, Peter, Alfred, Sen, Edreale, and Seraphina’s room are near, the six of them immediately met each other when they opened their room’s door.
“Do all of you sense that?” The ice princess said with a distorted voice because of panic.
“We wouldn’t open our door if we didn’t sense that,” Sen rebuked.
“All of you sensed that too? I sensed 10 Sword/Magic gods’ aura just now, does all of you sensed the same thing?” (Peter)
“Yes, I could sense 10 too. And all of them are gathering at one point,” (Albus)
“We need to go away from here quickly,” Alfred said with a firm expression.
“Wait, where’s Ren?” Edreale pointed out the current most crucial problem of their party.
Their party leader is gone!
“Sh*t,” Sen swore as he enters Oz’s room.
“He’s not here!” (Sen)
“That Ren, at times like this-” (Peter)
Boom!!!
A huge sound of an explosion coming from outside the city suddenly appears.
“Damn, this city will end up in ruins if those 10 sword gods fought! We might get caught in their fight and die if we don’t run away from here as soon as possible!” (Alfred)
Clank!
A sound of a shattered glass sounded from Oz’s room.
Sen opened the room again only to find Oz with a flat face. It looks like he breaks in from the window.
“Ren! Where have you been-” Before Sen could question him, Oz suddenly hold both of his shoulders and say with a tone as flat as his expression, “Retreat! The enemies are too strong! Demons! Tell the headmaster!”
“Wha- Ren!? What are you-” (Sen)
Poof!
Oz’s figure disappears into a black mist.
!!!!!!
“That must be his shadow clone, we saw his skill before, right? Let’s go, we need to follow his command,” (Alfred)
“And leave him be?” The ice princess rebuked.
Edreale, Seraphina, and Sen seem to oppose Alfred’s suggestion, but what Peter said next forced them to obey Alfred’s words.
“If there is Ren here, he’ll order the same thing to us. Are you going to defy his, the party leader’s orders?” (Peter)
Hearing Peter’s words, the three of them nod in obedience.
“Good, then let’s go, we need to go back and report to the headmaster,” (Peter)
Alfred and co took their stuff and retreat to Grandaria capital with Oz’s wagon. When they went outside the inn, there’s already a crowd of people running towards the city’s gate. Looking at the running people that looked like they’re getting chased by monsters, Alfred and co shifted their eyes towards the direction of the people source of fear. Only to gasp because of the scene.
It’s the malicious beings that should not be in this world.
Beings that should have been annihilated from this world.
Beings that once enveloped the world with fear.
“””Demons!””” Alfred and co exclaimed in surprise.
Countless demons are surrounding the city, looking at the scene, Albus and co’s heart couldn’t help but get enveloped by fear when they saw how many the demons are in number. Albus and co immediately flee as quickly as they could while killing some of the demons that hinder their way in a panic.
Alfred that had already regain his calm observed the situation with his sharp eyes. His eyes caught the sight of a lot of demi-humans from various races that are also running away from the demons, but different from the running humans, they have an expression of fear mixed with happiness.
(There are no demi-humans when we enter the city before, and that clothes, they’re slaves?) (Alfred)
But even for the calm and collected Alfred, the situation is too much for him to comprehend completely.
(Ren, what’s exactly happening…) (Alfred)
