Chapter 17 - Musgrave Mansion (part 2)

Gojo quickly charged at the group of five men. The men were also fast. All of them jumped back from their seats.

" Who is this brat ? What is he doing here ?" asked one of the men bewildered.

" He looks pretty skilled, may be an young adventurer. We must capture himas selling him can bring in a pretty good price. " said another man.

" We you won't be able to capture me. " said Gojo Satoru with a clear smile as he sprinted towards the nearest opponent. With a punch he sent him flying into a wall.

Two of the men approached from behind him with magical daggers. Gojo turned around to face them but they used stealth to get behind him again.

Then Gojo used lapse blue to halt their attacks and hurled them against a wall. The other two men also joined the attack. With stealth they quickly approached Gojo and tried to stab him with their daggers. But Gojo managed to avoid the daggers and landed punches on their faces.

Gojo landed in the middle of the room and looked around. All the five men had now stood up surrounding him.

" Now now are you hungry for more ? If not let the children you captured go. " said Gojo.

" Hey brat, don't you see you are surrounded. You think you can escape now ?" asked one of the men.

" I'd win, so there won't be any problems. " he replied.

The daggers of all the five men glowed yellow as they jumped towards Gojo. All of the daggers stopped inches apart from Gojo.

" What ? What the hell is this ?" one of the cloaked men asked.

" He he, didn't I say that I would win. My turn next. " said Gojo and then he punched all his attackers one after the other. All his attackers fainted this time.

After dealing with the five men Gojo walked up to the little girl who was lying in one corner. He woke the girl up and asked her to follow him. Searching through the other rooms he found the other four children and took them as well.

After reaching the Musgrave Mansion Gojo reported everything to Eric Flavel and the owner of the mansion.

The other Mansion also belonged to the Musgrave family. However it's location was a little far away from the road and hence it was abandoned to avoid the costs of maintaining it.

As soon as the news of the men in the cloak broke out, a few adventurers decided to follow Gojo and search for the men. Soon Gojo, Grisella and Sid along with five adventurers set off for the abandoned mansion.

Soon as the mansion came into their view. As approaching it they heard a loud boom as the mansion exploded. As soon as the explosions stopped the entire mansion was burning.

The adventurers had extinguished the fire by next morning. But nothing of worth was found in it. The whole place had been reduced to ashes and there were no corpses found meaning the men had escaped.

Not far away from where the group of adventurers were searching through the burnt mansion there were standing a large number of horse carts concealed by the trees and the bushes. Alongside the carts stood several figures in black cloaks watching the adventurers in their job.

From among the bushes emerged another figure with a violet cloak. The figure walked up to the men in black cloaks.

" What happened here ? Why do we need to move our base ?" he said.

" Sir, yesterday our base was raided by a young white haired adventurer. So we had to destroy the base in order to avoid capture. " said one of the black cloaked men.

" You say that a young white haired man raided our base all by himself ?" asked the man in violet.

" Yes, that is the case. Maybe he is a D rank adventurer. " said the previous man.

" Hmm, that does sound interesting. Do one thing, ask our spies to gather information about this fellow. " said the violet cloaked man.

" Alright, what should we do after we manage to find out about him ? Will we kill him ?" asked one of the figures in black cloaks.

" Nope, we need to know more about his powers. After that we will offer him a place amongst our organization, The Night Eagle. If he agrees then it's okay, if he doesn't he'll be dealt with. " replied the violet cloaked man.

Since Gojo had not seen the faces of his attackers, not much could be done. In the afternoon they departed for their next destination.
