After carefully listening Gray starts moving toward that direction. After about 15 minutes he reached near the place where that clunking sound is coming from. He hid behind a tree and carefully climb it to know if he can see what is happening in there without alerting whatever was making that sound. After climbing the tree what he saw shocked him greatly because there was 4 human just like earth. More precisely there was two-man and one woman surrounding one young man in the middle. The young man was holding a sword and was defending desperately against their attack.
When Gray listens to them talking he was more surprised because this language was very similar to his own.
So he quickly asked the AI chip to see if it can decipher this language.
"Beep Comparing to available primer"
"Beep Deciphering successful, Transferring data to the host's brain"
After that gray felt a little dizzy then again when he heard them talking he found out that now he can understand what they are saying.
Elric this is your final chance, quickly give us that warrior's breathing manual you stole from us, Said the female among that group which surrounding the young man.
Hahahahaha…
That young man laughs madly after hearing this, you people killed my whole family now you are saying I am a thief. Even if I give you what you want you will still kill me just to block this news from spreading, now I understand you people were all along after this top-level breathing manual. How stupid was I who trusted that back hearted bitch.Now because of my mistake, all of my family members are dead. I am sorry Mother, Father.saying these two drops of tears fall down his cheek and suddenly he took out something like a test-tube from his pocket and put it in his mouth.
Seeing this one man amongst the group which was surrounding him had a huge change of expression. Suddenly he yelled loudly, quickly stop him that is s life burning potion.
Hearing this other two also shocked because a life burning potion is a very rear potion that can increase someone's strength three times but it had a very nasty side effect, after using it that person will become crippled for the rest of his life after that only those miracle medicines from legendary Magi can save that person.
When Gray was watching all this from the top of the tree suddenly he got a warning from the AI chip.
"Beep Warning warning Extremely dangerous life from detected nearby"
Hearing this Gray was a little surprised but he quickly ordered the AI chip to show that stats of these people.
"Beep Name: Unknown Strength:3 Agility:3.1 Vitality:3.5"
"Beep Name: Unknown Strength:3.5 Agility:2.8 Vitality:4.5"
"Beep Name: Unknown Strength:2.7 Agility:3.3 Vitality:3.5"
"Beep Name: Unknown Strength:8 Agility:4.1 Vitality:0.5"
Seeing this Gray sucked a breath of cold air because although first three people have very high attributes but this last person's attribute is shocking, a strength of 8 that almost like hiding an elephant strength inside a human body. But after seeing the vitality gray was a little confused.
Is it because of an injury or something but thinking to this point he suddenly remembers the moment when that young man drank something and those other three was had a look on their face like they just seen a ghost.
Although Gray didn't know what that liquid was he guessed that it was some kind of strength enhancement drug and maybe decreased vitality is a side-effect.
But at the start that young man was the same or even a little bit weaker than those other three that means what he drank increased his strength by almost 3 times.
After thinking all this when Gray was struggling to decide whether to stay here or leave this place. That young man suddenly made his move.
Although at first, those three was barely managing to defend by relying on their excellent teamwork but at last the young man killed one of the men and broke their formation and shortly after killed the other man seeing the woman tried to run but the young man instantly catch up to her and split her into two.
Seeing this gore scene a normal person should feel nauseating but gray felt nothing for some reason.
Right now Gray was hiding and thinking anxiously about what that young man will do next because if he finds him that will be very dangerous. Gray does not like the idea of putting his life in the hand of someone else. There is absolutely no way for gray to escape if that young man finds him and wants to kill him.
I should just hide in this tree for the moment maybe he will just leave this place after some time.
But after few seconds Gray heard a thud sound, hearing this he peaks his head out to see the situation and to his shock, he finds out that young man was lying near the tree he was hiding.
Seeing this he quickly ordered the AI chip to scan the young man.
"Beep Name: Unknown Strength:1 Agility:0.8 Vitality:0.5"
"Beep target is unconscious due to exhaustion and received permanent injury"
It looks like the drug lost its effect and its side effects are more severe than I thought. After thinking for a few seconds Gray quickly goes down the tree and starts searching all the dead bodies and the body of the unconscious young man, He has no thoughts about saving the young man or something like that. Firstly Gray is not some kind-hearted righteous hero who put himself in danger for a complete stranger in an alien world and secondly previously from their conversation gray learned that this young man has something called Warrior's breathing manual and he really wants it. Because from this encounter and the strange things that happened after coming to this world, like the unknown radiation that can prolong life and strange energy from those animals he ate that can increase body attribute, he guessed that in this world one can become very strong and strong rules this world where a whole family was murdered just like those dogs eat dog fantasy novels.
First I thought it was funny that I was like those protagonists who transmigrate to other worlds and supernatural and magic exists there but it looks like the joke was on me I have really transported to a world where superpower and maybe even magic exists.
No matter how and why this happened to me, right now I have to become stronger to survive and most importantly explore all the secrets of this world.
After searching all of their body Gray found many things, From the young man, Gray found a rolled parchment and from others, he found one more parchment and a map, He also found quite a few round shaped silver and gold pieces, four swords, a bow with few arrows and two more items which looks like some kind of medicine.
First gray opened the map and ordered the AI chip to record everything from it and then looked at the other two parchments, one was some kind of sword art with a picture of a sketched man performing the sword moves and something was written below those pictures, although Gray can understand the language with help of AI chip but he still can't read or write it, for that AI chip will need more data but still, he recorded everything to the AI chip. And the other parchment looked like the Warrior's breathing manual which he also recorded to the AI chip database.
After doing all this he saw the still alive young man and carefully thinking about this Gray made a quick decision. He picks up one of the swords and plunges it into the young man's heart. At the last moment of his life, the young man opened his eyes and looked straight into grays eyes but all he saw was indifference after that he took his last breath.
Gray was little startled by this at first but soon his face became cold, It was like one of his restrain was broken after this incident.
After carefully wiping all trace of him from that scene with the help of the AI chip, Gray picked up the dead body of that young man and the sword that he killed him with then carried it for few kilometers then after making a hole in the ground with the sword he berried the body of that young man there.
Now even if someone comes to look for these people they will think that the young man called Elric somehow killed and looted them and ran.
Although I am doing all this there is still a chance they somehow can find me especially if there is such thing as Magic. I still don't have enough information about this word. Thinking about this Gray ordered the AI chip to show him the map he just looted from those people earlier.
Suddenly the image of the map was floating in front of Gray's eyes.
