// complaints?
Tassos and the rest of the party arrived at the ancient ruins. They then proceeded through an underground pathway about 6 metres wide and 9 metres tall. The place is old.
Tassos is walking by side with Amily. Amily and everyone else is walking very carefully except Tassos. Amily holding a bow and arrow tight ready to shoot.
"By the way, I've been meaning to ask, you don't have a weapon or armour . How do you plan on fighting?"- Amily in a tone to show it's stupid not to have any equipment.
"We came to explore, right?" - Says Tassos as if it's 'only natural'. He was just pocketing as they walked.
"You're missing the point. 'sigh' . You're useless. I only need your companion at this point. Unlike you she's armed and also a weapon herself" - Amily trying to scare Tassos
Darknes gets angry for what she said and was about to speak but Tassos looks at her and she relaxed
"Darknes tell them there is…"- Tassos pauses
…..
Suddenly, Darknes and Amily stop and aise their guard even more.
"Darknes you sense something too.?"- Amily
"Yes, there is something headed this way"- Darknes
After a while in suspend mode.
"Here they come, stone golems ! Tass stop walking ahead if you're useless. Step back !"- Amily shouting angrily at Tassos.
Tassos complies.
Sora launches a series of fire balls towards the enemy, knocking most off balance and destroying some. Amily follows with arrow attacks breaking some into pieces.Then..
"Take this weaklings, death shower.." Amily fire's lot's of magic arrows.
Rudeous charges forward with his sword also breaking some. He has great physical strength as he punched some rambles.
After sometime they managed to destroy all the Golems. All were alive except Rudeous had a twisted shoulder. Amily was almost out of mana. She breathed heavily.
Sora was completely out of mana. Darknes was tired but unscaved.
Tassos didn't even move an inch. He had started drinking some beverages again. And just watched the whole fight.
"TASSOS! Why you!"- Amily asked as she walked towards Tassos holding fist tight but stopped by Sora.
"Relax Amily, just let it go. Besides, he doesn't have a weapon to fight. How is he supposed to fight." - Sora.
Amily turns around and continues walking with a "mh".
"Hahaha, don't worry Tassos, this warrior will protect you"- Rudeous says, holding Tassos on his shoulder.
Was this dragonkin always this loud or he was just acting cool earlier.
After walking for a while ,fighting a few more golems, the party reached an open large room. This time Tassos was walking behind. Everyone.
"I see you have taken good care of my toys, but unfortunately this is where you meet your end"- Demon says. It's dressed like a human but dark eyes and tiny horns gave it away as not human.
"Oh no this is bad...an ARCHDEMON what is one doing here in a place like this."- Sora. He seems to have an appraisal skill. Gaia must have blocked him earlier from appraising me.
"What an intimidating aura !" - Amily sweating, a little fear creeping in.
"I can't fight this thing, let's run Amily"- Sora backing out.
"I don't think it's gonna let us make a run"- Amily
"Sir, Tassos what should we do?"- Darknes
Tassos looks at her and keeps silent.
The archdemon starts creating a ball of darkness.
"EVERYONE BEHIND ME!"- Sora says while casting a barrier.
Then.
"Here is my gratitude. "- The Demon says as it launches the darkness ball.
The darkness ball collides with the barrier.
"Can't...hold...it"- Sora while struggling to maintain the barrier but it cracks and 'BUM!"
Amily, Sora, Rudeous, Darknes gets thrown away by the explosion.As they started to struggle to stand up but soon shocked. Tassos was still standing there drinking his usual beverage.
"Tassos, run save yourself, you can still run right?, do it , now!..."- Amily.
"Amily, shut up will you?, I have a proposal for your party . surve under me"- Tassos completely ignoring the arch demon.
"What are you saying? This is not the time to make jokes."- Amily
The arch demon gets inpatient and decides to attack. The demon moves in an instant, ready striking Tassos on the chest with a powerful punch creating shock waves...but Tassos just stares back.
"What! What the hell are you?"- Demon
Tassos steps on the ground lightly using the tip of his shoes... the demon receives a powerful blow getting banged on the wall... sticking on it a little.
"Ahg…."- Amily and everyone else else even Darknes mouths wide open. She herself didn't realise that Tassos was that powerful. They didn't even see what happened but they were sure it was his doing as he had started emitting an aura.
Tassos kept closing in on the demon. The demon had realised it had understood the situation immediately.
"Well well, this world never cease to amaze me, if you don't mind me asking, who are you. ?"- The Demon raising up, Which surprised Tassos but he was at 1% to it didn't matter that much.
"I'm Tassos, I'm something like a Demon lord. " - Tassos facing the demon.
Laughing a little.
"A Demon Lord you say, I knew something was off. I don't fight battles I can't win"-Demon
"Now Primodial, what is it gonna be?"- Tassos. "I'm in a good mood for your punishing these idiots for me. So I don't feel like killing you"
"Haha, you are a strange one. Sir, will you please allow me to be your humble servant.? I feel a great urge that I can't explain why to follow you. You are very strong and I can tell you were holding back"- Demon
'Gais , what's with this guy?' - Tassos
'Seriously!?'
"You should know there is no payment." - Tassos disturbed… then relaxed.
Yes , because obviously you can trust a random demon.
"I only wish to serve you, master" - Demon
"Do you have a name?"
"Sir, Not really, demons are known to have no names,but you can call me Black. " - Black
"You can follow me , Black. Welcome aboard"- Tassos smile at bowingBlack.
"Thank you sir, I promise to please you will all I have "-
The two had forgotten the 4 struggling on the ground.
"Darknes, who is Tassos anyway?'. - Amily
"Beats me"- Darknes says clueless.
"You don't know! But he's your party member. "- Amily
" I met him, yesterday "- Darknes
"Ha! Seriously… and you trust him?"
Tassos touches everyone, healing them and restoring their mana.
"I feel incredible , but how"- Rudeous
"I fully restored…"- Amily
"Sir, thank you" - Darknes
"He's not even exhausted after sharing his mana. Just much mana does he have!? " Sora looked at Tassos, frightened.
"Amily, isn't there something you want to say?"- Tassos looking at Amily.
"Ah, yes, I'm sorry for how I acted earlier, I'm truly sorry.
"..sigh. Everyone cheer up.. Everything that happened between me and Black is to be kept a secret." - Tassos
"Understood, Sir. We wouldn't dare"- Amily.
Hahaha. She's finally having some manners. Why does everyone think I'm going to do something awful if they don't comply? Only Black is relaxed. Well I might as well have some.
Tassos takes out of nowhere a bottle of very carbonated drink.
"Mh, that's more like it. Tasty ! " - Tassos
"Time to head out and receive our coins"- Tassos while leading the way.
