Chereads / The Lost Hero / Chapter 25 - The Request

Chapter 25 - The Request

'Wtf...'

The scene I saw in front of me was crazy! People and beasts running towards my cozy little space!! 'what have I done to these people...' *Sigh* I flew from the boulder with all the barriers activated at the same time watching people below me, 'should I save them? I probably should right?' but what about my face? wouldn't it be shocking if they see a 5-6-year-old person massacring monsters like crazy...yep I myself don't want to see something like that."

For the face, I can use a mask but what should I do about my voice? Yes!! I can change it using my air barrier bending the sound frequencies after all air is needed to transmit voice right? I quickly tore off a part of the tent and used some earth magic to make a wearable mask, it was deep blue in color with some golden engravings on one side and only had two of its eye sockets opened.

'This came better than I expected it to be'

I after putting on the mask I started ascending downwards. "The...there's someone up there look!!" a buff male shouted in not so manly voice, "Shh!! be quiet" I shouted, dammit I don't want to hear anything coming from this guy's mouth ever again. "Isn't this that person whom we met on the first floor?" the female magician said looking surprised, but her tone was as if she was amused of something.

*Tchh* 'She is the type of person I am really not compatible with...I should probably stay away from her.

"Tornado," I said in a clear voice

A tornado of about the triple size of that of small tornado formed with higher intensity of wind blowing. "Run you, kids, from there towards that boulder there, I said in a solemn voice to sound older in age."

The tornado started ascending towards the mobs swiftly as I was continuously increasing the speed of the wind along with increasing the temperature by using the friction of the winds created by my to the friction of the wind outside my control, *Krrrghaaaahhhh* The monsters started screaming as they were broken into pieces, there were some bigger monsters that were being thrown around like rag dolls.

The adventurers looking at the scene were gasping as they were so shocked, after some time they started looking at me with fear and respect, 'Wow these people are so weak and idiots at the same time' I was again shocked by the strength and guts of these people coming to an A++ rank dungeon without having the strength to even fight for their lives.

"You there..." I again said in a solemn but angry voice.

"Ye...yes!!!" all of them shouted at the same time.

"Get The Hell Out Of Here You Piece Of Trashes...This Place Is Not For Weaklings Like You!!"

The spellcaster women stepped up and said in a confident voice "We cannot go from here until..." she started tearing up in the middle of speaking. 'W...what!! why is she crying? don't tell me I stepped on a landmine, but I cannot wait here or help them...I don't have time, I have already saved them once and they know how dangerous this place is so they should leave this place ASAP.

"Do whatever you want to do, don't say that I didn't warn you..." I said as flew further away from the group.

[Meanwhile]

"Ms. Eli I think the senior was correct, we don't have the strength to go further, the second floor is our limit and also if the senior hadn't killed the boss of the floor one then we all would have doomed and also this time we were just lucky to pass floor one without fighting, but I don't think we would be lucky again." The buff man said with a sharp voice

"No! We cannot!! We just have to follow senior and keep advancing the floors with him till we reach level 5, I have to collect the blood essence of Chimera for my mother!" Eli said with determination in her voice.

"Sigh..." Then we will follow you until we are able to, if we in the journey we feel the sense of danger of life even once, then we will leave." The Buff man said again

"Okay..." There was nothing Eli could do but just accept their conditions.

[Back To Haruto]

*Sigh* 'That was taxing, as expected it is not easy to act elderly and wise. But now that I am free, I can continue with my journey, I should probably go and fight the second-floor monster.' But, why are these people still following me? They think that I cannot see them, they are right but I can sense them, should I just trap them somewhere or throw them out of the dungeon? No that would be too much.

"I can sense you guys come out!!" I shouted looking at the direction they were hiding at.

"Is he talking to us?" The buff man said.

"No, how can that be?" Another guy in their group said.

"But he is looking at our direction," Eli said nervously.

'I have to resort to violence I guess' I said as I opened my hands casting water jet spell in my mind.

"Kyaaah!!! It's raining!!"

'That guy will give me a heart attack' I thought while remembering the voice of the buff man which didn't suit him. "Yuck!!" Should I just pull his vocal cords out? Or should I use magic to do it sneakingly? I was thinking about all of this as I saw the idiots hiding behind the rock coming out one by one.

"Now Tell Me Why Were You Guys Following Me?" I said in an angry tone.

"That..." The magician girl said again looking a little nervous.

"*sigh* it doesn't matter, you can obviously do whatever you what but don't follow or disturb me otherwise..." I said as I opened my palm on which there was a fire burning and dancing crazily because of the wind.

*Gulp* Everyone gulped down their saliva as they backed off a little bit as I was getting relieved that finally they were getting scared and backing off as I heard a voice

"I have a request, please take us to the 5th floor and then bring us back safe and sound, I can give you as much money as you want." The magician girl said. I noticed her voice sounded as he was very desperate and sad.

"HAHAHAHA!!! Now This Is Interesting!!"
