Chapter 10 - Chapter 9: The Journey of thousand steps..

Morgan was confused by what she was hearing. "Wait he's the beast?" "Yes he's monster that brings more problems to this town then we need! High level monster follow him every were he goes and all he ever does is cause trouble for all of us!" "But he's a hero summoned to this world to help." "You must be trying to fool yourself because even you saw that he's level 250 and we all know how impossible that is! He's not human, he's no hero, he's a monster!" Morgan was so furious at the mayor he was bull headed he wouldn't hear reason "He is a hero he saved your niece from being killed by the assassins!" "Which wouldn't have happened if he hadn't have lead anyone to hire them!" "Well that's..." "Face it he was the reason she almost died!" Akira after hearing that had enough of listening quietly. "You are so brazen to push blame on me when it was you hired them!" Morgan and Christine were both shocked with what he just said. "You have no proof both of them are dead because you deemed that they should not live for fighting you!" "IS THAT WHY YOU THINK I KILLED THEM BECAUSE THEY WERE STUPID ENOUGH TO ATTACK ME THAT'S NOT AT ALL WHAT I WAS THINK I DID BECAUSE THEY ALMOST GOT CHRISTINE KILLED!" "Why would you care about her?" "Because out of all you she never got scared of me unlike all of you she sat down and talked to me so she could learn more about me! I consider her a friend I was pissed off that some asshole would try to kill her. Even if it wasn't his intention!" "So they deserved to die?" "Ya as they didn't value human life they see as something like water and that their job was just as normal as anyone else." "But you killed them without a second thought? So does that mean you deserve to die?" "Yes" "So you agree with that?" "Yes and I would love to see you try to kill me!" After saying Akira smiled which made the mayor back up. "But you won't have to worry about me anymore I'm leaving the area so you can live in peace!" Morgan was surprised to hear this and when he started walking away she followed "Wait your leaving the forest, but why?" "Because it's time I finally break free of my chains here and finally did something in this world." "But why haven't you done that before?" "Because I really had no reason to the only person who wasn't afraid of me was Christine and that's the only reason I stayed, but that was before I meet you Morgan. Your the only other person I've meet that wasn't afraid and if you'll have me I like to form a party with you." Morgan started to turn red after hearing her heart started racing and she couldn't find the words to say "Are you ok?" "What oh yes of course Sojiro!" She extended her hand and they shook on it "Oh and if were going to be in party then you can call me Akira." "Ok Akira, but what about the safety of the village?" "Oh I'll have Hachiko guard against those bakas while I'm gone just wait by the wagon transfit station." "Ok" Morgan wait what felt like forever, but finally she could see Akira coming he had bag at his left hip with strap that stretched from it over his right shoulder. "Alright are you ready to go?" "Yep ready" "It always begins with a single step." "What?" "It's an old adage from my world that says 'Every Journey of a thousand steps begins with a single step." "Oh so then I guess this is beginning of one then?" "Yes it is so let's get going."
