" Damn It! Why do people want to die so badly?" Dave shouted when he saw that several people wearing Black robes tried to burn the guild. He had activated the [Invisible Barrier] to cover the building so somehow he avoided the worst thing that could happen but most of the things on the first floor had already been brunt.
" Don't they care about you guys?" Dave asked one of his hostages.
" My lady wouldn't have done this if she knew we are here!" One of them spoke,
" Yeah, ...she doesn't know that you guys were here."
[ Dave, What is happening?]
Oscar's voice came out of the communicator.
" What do you think? This is all because of you, I had never expected that I would have to deal with such things."
[...Explain]
" That Shiloh Natalis, the sister of the man you killed is taking revenge against you by trying to kill me and kidnapping Iris. Because of you, that innocent girl is getting tortured somewhere and I can't do anything to save her..." He spoke in a loud voice.
[ Don't worry, She can't do anything to Iris because of her father. As for you, make sure to survive!]
" Survive, That's all you have to say!" Dave shouted.
[ Ok, Sorry, But don't worry the situation is not that bad. I never thought that sending you there will turn out like that, Iris told me how you managed to save the Branch. Truthfully speaking I never expected you to be able to save the guild this way ]
" What do I do now?" He asked.
[ As I told you, run away and survive, if possible hide because Shiloh is not someone you could ever win against, So run and survive]
" And, after that!"
[ I will come to get you]
" So we run away, what about Iris?"
[ She should learn from this and live a happy and safe life with her father]
" Why was she even working so hard for you?"
[ Long story short... I saved her sick mother and her when they were running away from Demon Wolf. Sadly her mother died even after being saved, but since I saved her daughter, she made her daughter promise that she would repay the debt]
" ...One more thing, Why did you kill your friend? You are the worst boss but I can't think of a reason why you would kill someone." Dave asked.
[...I didn't kill him]
" What? But then why does that lady thinks you killed his brother."
[ Shiloh has misunderstood everything, I was...It's a long story. Don't get involved and just run away to survive]
After that Oscar cut the call, He could run away now if he wanted but what about the three people who were in the branch with him?
' Should I leave them behind? Let's not...that stupid lady will blame me even if she is the one to kill her people.' Dave thought and freed the three of them.
" Look the fire outside is hard to avoid, I could have run away if I wanted to but if I did that you guys will not survive." Dave started to explain
" We'll be alright...We don't need your help."
"...Great then I save my ass, and you guys save your asses but don't die," Dave spoke. " Otherwise that stupid lady will blame me when she is the one to kill you."
" How dare you–" The spy tied to protest Dave for calling Shiloh stupid but before he could do that Dave broke the window and jumped down. He covered his body with the [ Invisible Shield], Once he jumped he noticed that he has been surrounded from every corner.
He has no chance of sneaking away without them noticing him. One of them already noticed him and screamed that he was there, he quickly drank a mana potion to replenish his mana for the critical moments.
After that Dave had to face a barrage of attacks from them. His shield started to crack but Dave moved towards one of the streets. After that several of them jumped, and Dave controlled his strength while fighting them but whoever received his punch or kick didn't get up again.
Fortunately, he didn't get any notification from the system so they must be alright for now. Dave ran as fast as possible but many times he found himself at a dead end or someone was walking on the streets.
" Damnit! Do people seriously fight on the streets here?" He spoke as jumped on the roof to not lose way but 10 or 15 minutes later he saw someone wearing black armor coming towards him.
That person was fast...Too fast!
Dave received a punch straight into his stomach and was sent flying. His barrier broke the moment the punch made contact with it. He landed on his back at a 3-meter distance.
" I have found you!" The person in the black armor spoke, and Dave was quick to realize who he was talking to. Just after she spoke that she took out her sword from her back and attacked.
She jumped and using all her strength she slashed, Breaking two invisible shields at once and pushing him back once again, now Dave only had only 4 units of Mana. He checked for Mana replenishing potions but didn't find anything in his pocket.
" Summon [ Demon Wolf Bident]" Dave spoke and light particles appeared near his hand, in the next second his hands were grabbing onto the shaft of the two-headed spear.
Shiloh once again dashed toward him and slashed his sword.
He quickly stopped her incoming attack while hearing the notifications. His body felt stronger as all of his stats increased by a hundred percent. Using his new-found strength he pushed her back and made her lose her balance. Dave thought he got an opening but she skillfully regained her fighting posture and stepped back.
Dave thrusted the bident forward but she blocked it using her sword. The sound of metal clashing rang throughout the area and the ground below Shiloh broke.
" This... This item...This belonged to my brother! Why Do You Have It?" She screamed as once again she started to overpower him.
For the first time, Dave felt that he would lose in a fair fight. Also, this Bident he shouldn't have taken out if this belonged to her brother. Now, she would do anything to kill him and get this item from him...As Dave realized this fact...He couldn't think of using anything else that is strong enough to defend himself against her.
