Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Going Hunting with others

Dyllis got the quest stamp before putting it away to get a new Mission to pass the time since she knew the water fae will be sleeping for a while, to her own surprised Tobca turn out to be a pretty heavy sleeper. Before she can grab another D rank quest a group of two females and three males approach her.

"Hey, red riding hood would you like to join our party temporarily?" The lady that was leading the party asks, she and her teammates held a cocky air about them as if Dyllis couldn't deny them. The Cannibal sighed and pulled out the magical book "Give me a moment, need to get my weapons" She knew if she denied them they would harass her and Tobca and she didn't need any more unnecessary trouble onto her plate.

The party of adventures were quite surprised by the book speaking. Dyllis put away the book and headed downstairs to grab her 'Weapons' but in reality, she rips out a paper from her book and wrote down she was doing a mission with a few others and not to worry and go on a killing spree again. Leaving the paper on the bedside table she left and equip her gauntlets. Quickly making her way upstairs, she was practically jumping up the flights of stairs.

Dyllis met them right outside the guild and they left to go hunt orcs it was a C rank Mission so it would be a bit difficult for her, Maybe this time she will be able to get the tree wood that she needs for the harp.

In another place of the city, a man wearing noble clothing was going through papers and documents when a knock was heard with a gruff voice he told the person to come in. A man in all black enters the room with few papers in hand "My lord here is the information about the two outsiders that you requested" The lean man spoke in a hushed tone before leaving the papers with the nobleman.

Looking at the information on the paper he was quite surprised how little was known of them. There were pictures of them but they either wore a cloak or had their face half-covered, the blue cloaked one kept their cloak on.

While the red cloak one had their empty eyes looking straight in the Id, a few black veins were popping out around her eyes. It started to be a 17-year-old female that came from the woods, possibly could be a magical beast that had evolved into a more human creature. For Race it said human but nothing about her seemed really human "That dumb girl, if this Dyllis person kills her I would not weep a signal tear or even get revenge" He mumbled to himself.

When he looked over Tobca information it states that she is a Half Fae and Half-human, Fae around the area are usually known to be quite cruel they also enjoy feasting on stupid humans that bother them or do something to mess with their territory.

He had trouble look, reading both information one of the things that they had in common was that they both came from the forest. This was always a bad sign when monster turned human would appear they would usually go on a murderous spree but for some reason, they haven't slaughtered the whole city yet.

They are both F-ranked adventures with a mystical past for all he could know they could have both come from royalty in another country, A thought strikes him "I could probably hire them to get rid of that damn wrench that made my life a living hell and her daughter as well. "Plus that little girl ain't my own flesh and blood, it is my brothers" he mumbled to himself.

With that, he put away the information and took out his quill and started writing a letter with a grin on his face as he thought about freedom, Finishing the letter he sealed it with a wax symbol of his house name. He ranged a bell, a man with messy curly locks of hair enter the room, he had a tattoo on his neck marking him as a slave of the noble. He had Wolf-like ears and a tail poking out of his tailcoat.

"You called for me master?" he asks politely, the noble nodded "Don't let anyone know where you are taking this letter too" He continued his explanation on what to do and the wolf person nodded and takes note only to hide the letter in a pocket inside his coat. "I will take my leave now" Bowing at a 90 degrees angle before straightening up and leaving.

The noble sat in his chair for a while longer before leaving his own study only to get harassed by a venous snake also known as his wife "Where is Bradon going honey?" She asked with closed eyes with a scary smile. He kept a straight face while answering the snake of a woman "He is going to hire the assassins to kill the two girls that offended 'our daughter'" He said with a stiff voice.

The woman believes he wouldn't try anything funny but how wrong could she be. She tried to hug him only for him to sidestep as a dark look appears on his face "Do not touch me" He spoke slowly, a bit astounded she wonder where he got his backbone from. Her face quickly twisted into anger only for her to stomp off to their bedroom.

Dyllis and the party of five enter the surrounding forest a few hours ago and have been hunting for the orcs for about an hour already only to find about three. Dyllis got a bit bored and open up her status window as the others idly chat away about their childhood.

I think that I should probably find some spells for my magic attribute but then again my attribute ain't common either. This will be difficult 'I will probably have to go to the black market or something maybe even make my own? Also, how would I? I don't know shit' she thought to herself being too deep in thought about the matter.

The wendigo walked straight into a tree trunk, a crack noise was heard as Dyllis eye started to tear up as a painful throbbing feeling. She backed away from the trunk and laid both her hands over her nose that has blood dripping out 'Fuck! I think I broke my nose'

A few of the adventures just laughed while one of the others in a priest outfit came on over.

"Do you need any assistance?" he asked Dyllis nicely, Dyllis shook her head. The priest dressed guy could only sigh not wanting to force his healing onto her, a warm but needle-like sensation started prickling her nose, it felt like someone was sowing it back together. The Wendigo kept fallowing the group close behind as hunger pains started stabbing at her belly but she tried to ignore it. After another good hour her nose had finally healed up but the bad news is that some bloodstains her cloak.

They finally found a small group of orcs even though there weren't many of them they had good gains, they weren't the highest-ranked monster but were as equally as dangerous. They have high defences and high strength, they lacked a bit in the speed department.

The group of five made a formation having the mages and healer in the middle while having all meal fighters on the outside, the orcs spotted them and grunted before letting out a battle cry, swinging spiked clubs at them. Their clubs were made from some type of metal but has been stained with blood from previous foes they had faced before.

The orcs weren't stupid they attacked with great movement also backing away when a feeling of dread would overcome them, they felt a natural fear towards Dyllis, she wasn't alive like the others even with the keen senses they had trouble predicting against the cannibal.

There was a loud clank as the metal spiked club hit the shield of the tank of the party, there was some grunting as he tried to push back the sewer smelling Orc, Dyllis laid a blow to the orc right jaw which made it stumble back a bit another orc swung their metal club at dyllis head missing completely, they got a kick to the gut.

It wasn't enough to cause too much damage but was enough to move the orc back slightly, the orcs were speaking amongst each other. The humans of the party couldn't understand what they were saying but Dyllis understood them quite well, maybe it had to do with something her being a 'Monster or magical beast' herself.
