After testing out flash rend I felt the hunger come back but a bit weaker this time
'Why is the strength of the hunger so random' I thought
'I should scout the nearby town for anyone who is an outcast'
Checking the package I stole from the merchant's carriage all that was in it was a bundle of cloths
But that was perfect for me
Cutting a large cloth into a cloak using my finger I felt satisfied
Even though if someone who was well versed in fashion would gag at the rough look I didn't care
'I should also cover my face this red patch would be way too noticeable'
Cutting a bit more cloth into a face mask I was ready to head into town for information and my next meal
*******
Walking into the town it was bigger then I thought with merchant stalls everywhere
Looking around a bit I noticed an inn but as I had no money I couldn't stay there
However people in the lobby seemed to be gossiping about the missing people
"Did you hear about those two missing people?" One man said
" yea heard there is no trace of them"
Another said
"You think it was a qi beast?"
The third one said
"Nah the wave sword sect would take care of it if that was the case"
The first said
'So there is a sect here but they don't know how they have been disappearing…great' I thought with a maniacal grin
Heading out of the tavern I saw a young girl being chase by some of the owner of the merchant stalls I saw before
"Hey oni San can you take care of them for me!?" She asked as she tried to run by me
'It's obvious she stole something' I caught her by the back of her shirt and threw her towards the stall owners
"Don't get me involved with your bullshit, you stole. don't shift the blame to me"
The girl looking horrified looked back at the merchants who were now right next to her
I watched them beat her within an inch of her life grinning all the while
"STOP" a masculine voice said
As he jumped right in front of the merchants I could see he wore a martial art gi
"How dare you all gang up on a little girl!" He said as he drew his sword
Walking up behind him I said "sir she stole from the merchants isn't this just punishment for such?"
Looking at me he glared "you are no better you watched as they beat her"
'Seems he doesn't know I threw her to them'
"Sir what was i supposed to do I don't know any martial arts"
Looking annoyed the man turned back around to punish the merchants however they left during the conversation
Seeing this it seemed the man tried to calm his emotions and bring the girl to the clinic
Picking her up the man sprinted down the street at a high speed but not that fast to him
'Either the local sect is weak, he is just starting out or he was holding back'
I decided to trail them and saw him dart into a building
"Bingo"
********
Waiting for night to come was boring but I waited
Once the sun fell I kept through a second floor window
Listening for breathing within the clinic I realized my hearing was quite a bit better then normal
Ignoring that for now I crept to the room where the girl was staying but I heard another person outside the room…it was that martial arts man who saved the girl.
'He is asleep, it would be so easy to just kill him now' but I stopped myself
If someone from the sect were to disappear then they would definitely at least be way more on guard
If I target someone from the sect I want to target someone stronger then him
I quietly opened the door and went in
The girl lying on the bed was also asleep
Walking up to the bed I teach out to her neck while covering her mouth
Crushing the the girls neck she tried to let out a scream in her last moments but it was muffled
Alright time to bring my meal out of here
*SLAM*
The door opened the martial art man standing there looking at me with both surprise and rage
