Chapter 10 - Ch10: Forever my Friend part 6

Annael fainted on the ground and Terry is still unconscious. Jake uses first Aid with the use of the basic bandage skill, the bleed stop after constant hand pressure. "You can now use your healing light." Jake stood up and walk towards Terry's Direction. Diane cast is healing light and concentrates it on his forehead. Almost half of its wound is now closed, Diane cast the last healing light and it manages to close the wound but there is still a fleshy scar line that can be viewed. Diane use its spiritual eyes and saw that the protective barrier which is the vitality is repaired by 1/4.

Jake uses First Aid with the use of basic bandage skills and wraps it around Terry's wound which was located on the trunk area. He was just relieved that the wounds are not as deep Annael's wound. Jake realized that it is past 1 hour since they came inside the cavern. He touched Terry's forehead and cast healing touch. Jake called Diane to checked Terry's vitality which she did and reported that it recovered at least 1/6 of its original vitality. Andrew almost laughs on how weak he is, Terry is the third lowest in Vitality and he only manages to heal at least 1/6 while Annael healed at least ¼.

Jake carried Terry and place him beside Annael, "Diane please rest for a bit and recover your stamina and mana. I will be the watcher first." Diane nodded and went towards one the elevated stones, kneeling and praying more like a chant.

Jake sat down and sigh, with tired eyes while staring at blank space, "God…why am I here?"

GURYU'S POV

"Kara!" Guryu shouted. Kara calmly came down, " Yes dad?" "Have you seen Jake? I haven't seen him for the last 10th days?" Guryu twitches his lips while continuing polishing the sword. "I did went to the Guild few days ago but they said she team up with other team in order to get some accessories or artifact," Kara explained. Guryu placed the sword on the table and sigh, " I will personally ask Martin directly." He faces Kara, "Remember he is your benefactor at least what we can do is to be polite with him. Let us go." Guryu and Kara went out of the shop. He flips the signboard to close.

As they walk toward the Adventurer Guild, several town guards are rushing outside the eastern gate, bringing with them are torches. He looks at the sky and pondered, It is still in the middle of the day. Why would they bring torches?" He realized something and glances towards Kara, " Kara starting today, don't go out from this town." Kara noticed that his father seems worried so he just nods.

They arrived at the adventurer guild and saw several parents shouting towards Marfin, "Why is it there is no news! Why husband did not go out of this town! He was drinking in that tavern!," pointing the tavern on the opposite side of the guild, " Why can't you find him!" The middle age lady started cry, " He was not home for that past 5 days! Here! Please take my last savings! Please find him….I am begging you." The middle woman is already kneeling. Marfin just tap the woman's shoulder, " Keep your money madam….You already paid us a few days ago at least go home and rest." Few minutes after the sister of the woman came by then she aids her sister to get up and slowly walk outside the guild.

"Never thought, I will see the soft side of you Marfin" Guryu smirked. Marfin smiled, " Well, I don't have a choice do I, they are costumers from this Guild." Guryu laughs, "If this happened back in our days, you will immediately accept that money without even thinking if the mission will fail or not….you've change…" Marfin blankly stare at him, " What the fuck do you want from me Guryu?" Guryu laugh again," It's a about a boy named Jake" Marfin nodded and went behind the teller table and check some logs, " Ah! Is this the boy you ask for a fake ID from me?" Guryu nodded. Marfin continued to flip the logs and smile, " He teamed up with Annael, Diane and Terry." Marfin glances at him and said, " Yout don't have to worry, he is still alive. If he died the color of this ink will turn to red." Guryu nodded.

There are several people shouting outside the Guild. Since there is no adventurer accepting quests, Guryu and Marfin went out to checked what was the commotion is all about.

Several onlookers are staring at the burnt person on the ground. Guryu notice that the person was on the adventurer who died a few months ago. Some of the people are now whispering that someone is using an animation artes within the town. The town guard disperses the onlookers and threatening them to place them in jail.

"Are you doubting our Count's ability to solve these cases?" Marfin calmly asked. Guryu shrugged his shoulder, " I don't doubt him, his my suspect." Marfin widened his eyes and look around to see if someone was listening, "They gonna kill us if they will hear what you say!" Guryu fixes his gaze towards the burnt man on the ground. Guryu closes his eyes a bit and walks away, " Please find me when Jake is already done his quest." Marfin nodded and went back to the guild building.

"Dad, is there something bothering you?" Guryu stops walking, "Tell me….How strong is Jake?" Kara brightened his eyes and told Guryu the precise event during the time when he first meets him. Guryu smile and thought, it seems that Kara idolized Jake. So, based on Kara's observation Jake still not in the mortal realm during he killed those zombies. He is not strong in terms of realm but he is smart enough to use whatever is available in the surroundings." "Kara go home first, I just need to visit someone." Kara nodded and went home.

Guryu went out through the south gate. There are only two town guard busy chit-chatting about how many women they fuck for the last few years. Guryu just smiles at them and walk at least 1 kilometer away from the town. He arrived in an abandoned house hidden within the rustling trees. Guryu enters the house and a man whose all extremities were tied like a spider web is glaring at him. Guryu flinches a bit due to the putrid smell coming from the tied man. The guy with icteric sclerae open its mouth, " Ple….ase…..just….kill me…!"
