As we got closer to the town I thought about why it is a town and not a city since it would be perfect for growth and expansion but just because nobles want a clear view they won't allow expansion unless it is far enough away that it cannot be seen. But then why are we in our current predicament. Multiple pairs of eyes are boring into my back as we walk along the path towards erudite. It seems to be knights from the city but why are they lining the roads?
I can feel when their glances switch between me and Lilly I could feel their lust upon seeing her. I was so close to crushing them all but I simply put them on my shit list and if they tried anything funny they would suffer.
Moving into town we headed towards the adventurers guild. All of the pathways were empty with only knights patrolling the streets. even the market stalls were closed. Pushing open the doors I was met by the guild master and what looked like a knight of higher rank than the others maybe some officer.Strolling in I walked up to the old man that gave us this stupid job.
"Hey old man we finished your job and we want to collect our rewards."
"Ahem this is not the best of times I am currently taking to head knight ravenmoon about an important matter"(GM)
"And I don't give a fuck about it I just want to finish this job get our guild identification and leave."
"Oh. A commoner with a tongue and no respect for nobility. Although you are quite the looker for a dirty Commoner."
"I don't remember talking to you. Anyway can you get me my identification after then"
At this rate I'll get nowhere and I'm in no mood after that easy fight against a weak opponent. I just want to leave.
"Later"
"Such insolence"(Officer)
In my peripheral I can see a mana infused sword swinging for my neck. Without moving from my spot I catch the blade between my fingers and snap it in half.
"Bad choice"
I move directly in front of her and give her a hard bitch slap using a quarter of my strength as killing her wouldn't be fun. Before turning to leave. She just stood there unmoving, I thought she would react but it seems I had broke her.Before leaving I grabbed our identifications that were in the guild master's hands and threw half of the wyvern corpse on the floor.
Walking out of the guild we went to get a room at the inn as I doubt that we could find a place to sleep nearby. Maybe we should get a base of operations to live in temporarily but I should get the information I need about magic and the environment from the capital before leaving for somewhere remote and perfect for travel to different locations. but for now we don't need to focus on that.
~Officer ravenmoon~
In all of my years in the military and as a part of nobility, Never have I had a person disrespect me so. I want to crush him beneath my feet but I am not arrogant enough to not notice the gap in strength between the both of us. He handled me like I was a dammed Child! It's been known for years that a mana infused sword Is nearly impossible to break but he did it with his bare hand. His movements were too efficient for any normal person he might even be on par with the king for strength. Looking at the guild master I can tell he's terrified even if he is acting stoic so I should get some questions out of him.
?How do you know those commoners? You know that you can't lie to me so answer truthfully"
"Of course ma'am. One day he just appeared and killed two of our finest adventurers. They may have acted first but they shouldn't have been killed over it as no actual harm had been done to them. When I came down from the second floor I could feel his bloodlust and his aura isn't that of a human! No human could ever have such a volatile aura that holds so much power."
"I sent them off to kill that wyvern but even with the two of them it should have taken longer and more party members otherwise for the amount of time that they took they must be close to his majesty the king in terms of rank and his majesty is the strongest human in history!"
Interesting I will send a letter to the king about this person it would be best to get him on our side even if he has no care for nobility he has to answer to the king and if not we can enslave him and use him to teach those heroes from another world. And after he can fight in the war.
"That's enough! There is no way he is anything like the king. What about the girl? She was silent but seemed strong?"
"Yes she came with the guy, real looker too. She killed our best assassin almost instantly."
"So both of them are strong?"
"Yeah sure both of them are strong"
I see I will add her to my letter to his majesty maybe I'll get rewarded for notifying him of these individuals and I can have them work under me.
I don't want to stay in this thilth any longer I'm going back to my room.
~Omnipotent POV~
A Gaudy noble who forgot their last encounter where they lost headed back to their room in the VIP suite so close to her opponents to write a certain letter to a certain someone
Nearby groups of guards chatted to each other as they swapped positions and took breaks as a lone figure immaculately camouflaged with the rooftops with no presence at all was looking down at them with a sharp glint before leaving a present and walking away.

I feel good today nothing better than waking up to this sight. She's so cute when she's sleeping but she has a vice-like grip. Moving a strand of that pink hair from her face I got a good look at her sleeping face. Giving her a small peck on the cheek I gave a monotone response.
"All right you can stop pretending to be asleep now"
"Aww but I want to hold you more~"
"We will have time later but for now we have to go. I don't want to run into that bitch again if I don't have to. I'm sure you have felt them."
Frowning she replied "Yeah for the last hour we have been surrounded"
"Yeah let's go out the window.. and let's call in that favour the baron gave us."
Jumping into my arms she didn't need to talk to give me a response. Giving me a soft kiss I felt her sweet lips on mine and I was filled with elation.
Opening the window I activated my void walk skill and jumped from the 3rd floor onto an (air step) running at my fastest speed i continued conjuring multiple air steps. I don't want to face them yet no matter what.
"You can sleep again it'll take a few hours if what the baron said about his territory. Hopefully he will be traveling back to his territory soon"
"mhmm I think I'll do just that"
I felt my mana slowly drain as her hands came in contact with my neck. It's like mana vampirism. I have similar abilities but it's closer to actual vampirism. I can drain the vitality from others to extend my vitality and change it into mana but it takes so long that I don't use it.
And so I ran close to the road to look out for the carriage of the baron on the way to his territory.
