Chapter 13 - A new path!

Between the edges of the village and the highest part, we find the three guards.

This is the first human conflict I'm going to face. I can not help but feel a little nervous, but it passed quickly after the activation of [quiet mind].

The guards have already seen me and the Parrot, I take advantage of my large size and design an aura of superiority, I walk slowly and with steady and long steps. In the middle of the way I speak in a deep voice for the Parrot to wait there.

I return my gaze to the guards, they are about 1.8 meters tall, but they are still much lower than I, just like everyone in the village they have characteristics of the Asians. Apart from the fact that they are Cultivators, they are not very intimidating. Bald Asians, neither fat nor thin. No shirt, wearing just pants (the first people I see wearing pants) holding a long wooden pole.

They look at each other and face Parrot, several emotions are constantly on their faces, such as Arrogance, fear, surprise and anger. They do not stand there as idiots, they eventually tell me something like 'stop!' or 'what you want?' but I ignore it and continue to approach without haste.

From what I noticed talking to Parrot is that people here talk at a distance of 1.2 to 1.5 meters. Then I will intentionally invade the interpersonal space of the First Guard, arriving less than a meter away from him.

He is clearly uncomfortable with the situation and I realize that his level of arrogance decreases and that of fear and anger increases.

I'm constantly looking in the eyes each of them, at the beginning it is difficult to do this, but I quickly adapt the position of power. Keeping my voice calm to do not sound so respectable or arrogant.

"Sirs, did something wrong happen this morning?"

He looks at the floor and then at the partners and comes back to answer me but looking at my cheek, hair or neck. There is still some arrogance in his eyes. "Nothing out of the ordinary, stranger"

Seeing that he is still resilient, I approach him a little more and place my right hand over his left shoulder. I extend my left hand with my palm up, indicating to him to put the coin pack there. "Make a decision, everything will be fine between us. Are you sure you did not find anything that does not belong to you?"

It is evident who has a position of superior power, all their arrogance disappears leaving only fear and anger. The same is reproduced in the other guards. He is completely dominated! If it were not for my ability [Poker Face] I'd probably be laughing now. He starts to get the coin purse, but before putting it in my hands he looks behind me, some villagers gathered to see the commotion, probably because of the tension he had not noticed until now.

all fear and anger turns to humiliation and hatred! he drops the coin purse on the floor. I'm sure they're going to start attacking me, using the hand on his shoulder, I support myself and set my knee in the direction of his nose.

If any mma fighter saw the blow he would probably laugh at how inadequate and poorly done it was. But I have a speed and strength far superior to any mma fighter in history, I compensate the technique with brutality!

The blow connects directly to the chin. Somehow he managed to get out without any broken bones or teeth. But I definitely shook his brain. he staggers back and the other two guards attack me with wooden poles.

The guard to my right throws a side blow towards my body. I instinctively try to grab the wooden pole. The left guard strikes from top to bottom. I use my forearm to defend my head.

I defend myself successfully the only one down was my little finger of the right hand, which broke during the process. But I still managed to grab the wood.

I can handle the pain and use the guard holding the pole like a heavy hammer to throw at his partner. This works unexpectedly well. however, the leader who had been dizzy until then recovers and come back sending a powerful uppercut. As if it were a revenge, he hits my chin in full.

the difference is that I keep myself aware while it connects more attacks. Initially I was having a psychological pain, because every blow made a big sound! But the only ones that really hurt are the beating using the wooden poles.

For every ten attacks they hit, I hit only one, but I still was winning because they do not have the healing ability. It was a slow and painful victory. Yes, it could have been faster if I had used my claws or the Glock, but I chose to keep it a secret for now.

With the three opponents on the ground I lower myself and get the coin purse. Then I turn and with my bloody cracked lips I give a big smile to Parrot. He returns with a thumbs up and looks very cheerful, but the other people are still silent, in complete shock!

I can not imagine a better situation to start recruiting people, if not this one! Without further ado I speak to the people! "Fear can occur to your life, in fact, most of the population here lives in fear... Fear of being abused, afraid to be attacked, afraid to be hungry and afraid of disease. Here people live the life of fear!

So, you, your parents..... and one day your children will live this life of fear... How long?" The silence continues as I continue to speak and gesturing with my hands.

"When someone will stand up and say 'enough!' ? Will you live a sheep life forever?"

someone in the audience who continues to grow screams: "We are weak! What can we do against them?"

"You need a new path! And you need a strong Will! I can open the new path, but I can not light the flame of Will in you people! You have to do it alone!"

I turn to Parrot,

"Patrick, a shrimp fisherman. Also known as Parrot! He's just a 13-year-old boy. But under his shoulder he carries the weight of his whole family! he struggles hard every day to provide a lean sustenance for his family and the one who is stronger and should be protecting him, are stealing and taking what is his! Tell me, do you want this future for your brothers?"

He has tears in his eyes as he shouts "NO!"

"and you people, do you want that future for your lives and for your children?"

I scream back as I look at people who also clench their fists and have tears in their eyes! 'NOT!' 'NO LONGER!' 'I CAN NOT LEAVE THIS HAPPENING!' 'NOOO!' Several screams echo through the place! I go back to look at Parrot.

"Patrick, do you have the Will to follow this new path?"

He yells 'YES!' while the tears run down his face.

I wave with my hand for him to approach! And I say to everyone "This is the new path I open to you!" a dense black smoke begins to cover Parrot. He does not fear and accept the darkness, small stars and strong colors make the process more beautiful and mysterious.

After a few seconds, a boy naked and crying out of freedom appears from the darkness!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH"
