Chapter 49 - The system actually works

Reiji stands feeling much weaker than before, but somehow he feels like this is how it is supposed to be.

Screaming continues as reiji gets ready to open the door. reiji decides to try and play it cool. he is too weak to just make them submit. He has an idea that may make them stop, but that will lead to trouble later if this is a deeper plot.

outside from liliths view.

"You will not be allowed to go inside try, and I will stop you."

[Villager 1] Move out of the way woman!!!

[villager 2] yeah move we have business with the woman who owns this place.

[Villager 3] She has to pay

Suddenly the whole mob just starts screaming she has to pay. repeating it like a chant until a group of silver armored knights approach their crest is that of berg. There are three of them and only one has his helmet off.

[Knight 1] Make way for the knight captain

nadra sadis.

[Knight 2] move or be charged with obstructing, and summarily executed.

[Sadis] Move you peasant garbage. you filthy half rotten filth. I have come to take this woman in for questioning regarding her traitorous daughter, and son. I sadis will use this to improve my rank amongst the proud knights of berg.

[???]Shut up your too noisy. you know I am trying to sleep in here right?

[sadis] Who dares challenge me sadis of berg.

[???] I said shut it!!! don't you listen at all?

[sadis] Come out immediately or we will burn the house down.

the door swings open and rriji comes walking out rolling his arms. he cracks his neck then yawns.

"I told you to shut it " reiji says looking at the crowd.

[Villager a] isn't that?

[villager b] yeah I saw him he was the one who killed kana.

[Sadis] you are coming with me. with any luck bringing you to berg will also help my standing. after all who would believe you killed that woman. you look like you couldn't even beat a rustroc.

"what's a rustroc?"

sadis smacks his forehead laughing.

"i can't believe this hahahaha you don't even know what a rustroc is hahahahaha"

reiji just shrugs

" I'm from dragons heart I don't know how you idiots from berg even function"

sadis goes quiet then clemches his fist.

"your from the elven nation aren't you?"

reiji nods this causes utter disdain to appear on sadis face.

" if it wasn't for that idiot hero I wouldn't have lost my status to begin with. That idiot taiga why did we summon him anyway only the hero is useful anyway. broken as he is."

reiji smiles

"Oh im the one who stopped soma too. so that means you people not only caused that problem, but also summoned heroes to cause them problems."

sadis points to the two guards "kill him"

the guards don't move.

"Didnt you hear me I said kill him." he says pointing to reiji.

The guards still don't move

"You imbeciles I demand you kill him this instant!!!!"

The guards put their weapons on the ground and bow to reiji.

reiji is looking at them curiously.

"How dare you defy me!!"

sadis draws his blade and rushes towards reiji. He is suddenly stopped by the two knights weapons in hand again.

[Knight a] We will not allow you to harm the man who protected our family.

[Knight b] just because we are in the berg army doesn't mean we don't have family in falmus.

"Traitorous wretches" LbSadis spits vitriol at them.

[Knight a] thank you sir please go we will handle him. I promise no harm will befall us.

Knight b nods in agreement.

reiji grabs Lilith they go to run, but the villagers stop them.

The Village chief comes through the crowd.

[Chief] You let her escape didn't you?

reiji nods trying to see their status.

Villager 1 through 7 are level 4 and the Chief is lvl 10 This is rather troublesome. reiji says inwardly.

Lilith gets in front of reiji as two villagers attack her with a field sickle and an axe. Lilith counters sending both men into others knocking them out.

[50 exp gained]

[50 exp gained]

[level up!!!!]

"haha I guess my system finally works. I wonder if the interference was always there I just couldn't tell before I was paralyzed. Questions for later I guess. reiji says trying Again to leave.

these people haven't harmed him yet. he doesn't want to seem like a bad guy for beating up weak villagers. no one would believe he is technically weaker than they are.

Reiji grabs Lilith in his arms princess style. running away luckily for him it isnt all about stats he is no slouch in a race either. reiji runs for it holding Lilith.

Sadis still locked in combat with the two guards screams curses at them as reiji runs with lilith.
