Chapter 40 - Siege at Akkee sect (5)

If it was during the daytime, everyone could see some black spot climbing around. Just like the fearsome black insect in the white kitchen wall.

After thirties minutes had passed, David now hanging around half of the cliff by now. Even if it was dark with no light and almost vertical cliff, but it was easy for superhuman like David, he just climb it half ways with ease.

Looking from the outside the man must be very clammed his breath was steady and no bad word out of his mouth. He just climbed from one place to one place, but now he stopped on the cliff due to some circumstance. He grabbed the small button on the cliff with his finger while the other three limbs were hanging on the air, an unaccomplishable deed if it was not for the use of force.

It was a cliff-hanging, in a literal sense.

David wanted to shout but after the long years, he spent with Iris he could easily talk with her in his mind.

"Iris! you tell me the wrong place!" David just jumped diagonally from the lower place but failed to grab the good one with his misunderstanding.

"No, master. You are the one at fault. I told you to grab the one a meter higher at the northwest. It's your own incompetence to miss it."

"Damn it. Told me that sooner!"

Iris then calmly told David the next step he should continue.

"If you failed to grab that one it would be harder to grab the next one. Also please don't miss the next one and remember to continue with the momentum to grab the good spot 3 meters ahead, you will get a place to put your foot."

"Fine."

"By the way, It will be a lot easier if you stop being stubborn and let me do it instead."

"No. I will do it myself."

"There still a way to change the situation. But your control could not be as accuracy like mine."

"No, you only need to take over an only life-threatening crisis, not something like this."

"Roger, that."

David stopped talking with Iris and concentrated his power to the hand he used to grad at the rock. He used only that one hand to pull him over to the next one iris told him. He miscalculated the power he used a bit but still managed to use the momentum and grab the next spot.

"You use too much power on this step."

"Shut up!"

"...….."

"...…." David looked to his surrounding and found some good spot but did not sure whether that spot was good or not.

"Hey, Iris! What's are you doing."

"...….I am shutting up."

"...Told me the next spot please, miss Iris." Sometimes like this made David felt a bit regret he chose that Iris could have her own personality as a reward long time age. At that time he thought a computer sound without any emotion or feeling in the voice was too sad for his most important partner and chose that reward, he did not know that Iris would become like this sometime.

"Jump a little bit to the right, and raise your right hand higher than this position."

"Please, tell more specific distance."

"Isn't you who told me to not use a number?"

"I'm sorry, Iris. Help me, please." Yes, he really regretted it sometime.

An hour had passed after that point, David now reached the top of the mountains.

"Good, I finish it quite quickly."

"It would be shortened by half if you left your body for me to control."

"All's well that ends well. Let's me rest a bit and we will try the next step of this plan."

David looked at the building complex below and tried to observe the situation. The building was about 100 meters from the summit, only the disciplinary building nearby.

"Iris, tell me how many people in that building."

"1"

"Only 1. I know that no one ever come this way but to let down their guard like this, what an anti-climatic. Well, my job will be a lot easier. That's good."

Normally, he could not see the opponent inside the building but with Iris help, everything that came to his sense would be automatically analyzed. For this time the person inside could not hide their scent and sound of their breath, which was enough for Iris to use it for locating the enemy.

David resumed with his move and walked closer to kill the person inside with his throwing knife. An archwizard in deep meditation who concentrating on detecting the use of magic was nothing more than a lump of meat on the board waiting to be cut.

A wise people would not allow his men who in charge of detecting to be alone at all cost.

David looked through the window and found his victim, he threw the knives in his hand at the heart and head of the unlucky archwizard.

So sad for the middle age archwizard who spent years of practicing to die without a chance to fight back at all. But who could blame him for this, the first barricade was there and the guards of Akkee sect still patrolling the area, after that the 4 stairs was filled with people to guard it.

David went inside to take the knives out of the corpse, he looked at the person he just killed and remembered that this guy once asked him for a fight during his time as an adventurer. David beat this guy black and blue so much that even Woden felt sorry for this guy. He later beat this stupid guy many other times, but since the problems were only minor cases between adventurer, David did not kill.

It seemed that this guy fate was to be beaten by David, anyway.
