Although it took five minutes to deal with them without using any weapons, Aaron defeated all the guards in the area in the same way. Thanks to it, their eyes were spinning while they were on the ground. More of them were coming, though.
"This will never end… I guess I will just invade, " Aaron thought.
Aaron grabbed one of the spears, but he frowned since they were a bit too heavy for him. He tossed it on the ground and then stepped forward. Once he crossed the gate and reached the garden of the castle, the guards saw him, and then he summoned his bone sword.
"I don't want to fight, but I will if I have to," Aaron said while looking around and then raised his voice. "Prepare me an audience with the king. I will have it in one way or the other. I am giving you the chance for that to happen under your terms and while you have time to prepare for it."
The guards hesitated since they didn't see anyone using that kind of magic… Aaron was looking more dangerous by the minute. Still, his voice was calm, and he wasn't emitting any bloodlust.
While he was waiting for his answer, Aaron checked the garden around. It would be a pity to dirty it with blood… Aaron was surprised by the beauty and tranquility that surrounded him. The carefully looked after hedges and flower beds were a combination of color, with roses, lilies, and daisies all vying for attention.
The air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers, and the sound of birdsong filled his ears. In the center of the garden stood a grand fountain, its waters sparkling in the sunlight and providing a refreshing coolness in the warm summer air. All around him, the lush greenery of the garden enveloped him, creating a sense of peace and serenity that was hard to find anywhere else, even more so considering his job.
The guards looked at each other without knowing what to do. It seemed that their leader wasn't around, and they hesitated in calling the shots. Still, they slowly moved to surround Aaron, but they also sent five of the guards to the entrance of the castle.
Aaron furrowed his eyebrows, and he wanted to sigh as well. Still, he decided to be patient to make good first impressions on that country and to their leader. If things don't work out that way, he can always make a bad impression to make his point as well.
After a couple of minutes, a lot more guards left the castle toward the garden. Aaron felt some eyes on the windows of the castle, and soon, he confirmed that the king wouldn't come… this time, he let out a sigh. He tried, but things happen… dozens of guards came out from the castle. If they wanted blood, they would have blood… Aaron already knew what to do with the king, thanks to it.
"All right, you asked for it," Aaron said and then cracked his knuckles.
The guards charged at Aaron all at once while pointing their spears toward him. While he knew that the people of that world could become stronger than humans, but not that strong… the armored guards, even with all that weight, could only run at forty kilometers per hour.
All of the guards tried to pierce him at the same time, but Aaron threw his bone sword at the helmet of one of the enemies and made it pierce the hole of it and pierce the head of the enemy. That pierced the eye, but it didn't kill the guard… until Aaron dashed toward him and then kicked the back of the sword.
Ding! [You obtained 100 experience points]
(You have recovered thirty points of mana.)
Aaron had planned to save his skill points further, but he couldn't do that either in that situation. Regardless, he escaped their encirclement and made the guard explode once he was killed and became a skeleton.
The guards opened their eyes widely when they saw the body exploding… Thanks to that, Aaron had the chance to summon and fire Bone Swords and hit the faces of the enemies that were caught off guard. Some reacted fast on time and raised their shields, but that didn't matter… Aaron had plenty of bodies to use, and he turned them into skeletons.
While seeing those creatures moving toward them, the guards began to tremble from head to toe, they never saw something like that, after all. Still, they soon realized that the skeletons were quite weak when they began to attack… they smiled when the monsters became piles of bones, but that gave Aaron enough time to hit their heads with Bone Swords. The attacks flew even faster and while spinning since Aaron made that skill level up a few times as well.
The projectiles had become powerful enough to even knock down a guard when he used a shield to block the attack. Still, the fate of the battle had been decided a long time ago… the guards in the garden had been defeated through and through.
All of a sudden, a weird sound coming from the castle echoed in the area. It resembled a siren, but weirdly enough, it echoed across the area in a fluid motion like the wind and reached the whole city.
"I guess things will become bloody…" Aaron furrowed his eyebrows.
