Xavier paused, and so did Damien. The two of them exchanged a look with one another before Xavier unsheathed his sword and rushed in the direction from where the voices were coming from.
"AHHH!"
A man screamed in surprise as he tumbled on his bottom, his expression was that of sheer shock as he looked at Xavier and Damien.
"What—what do you think you are doing?" the man questioned while looking at the two.
"Who are you?" Xavier asked sharply. "What are you doing here?"
"I am an adventurer," replied the man while breathing heavily. "We are here to hunt a rare beast. What about you? Why are you swinging your sword wildly? You nearly killed me."
The man patted his chest while glaring at Xavier.
"We are adventurers as well," Damien answered. He decided that it was not a wise move to tell strangers that they were on their way to hunt a few members of the dark guild.
