Chapter 44: Again?

Riku spread his new wings widely, despite the fact that he had no idea why he had this. He was pleased to see the changes in his body. Riku, Emma, and Solomon were also delighted to leave the cave and proceed to the Arzotoc village.

Even though they knew the monsters were more aggressive at night, Riku was convinced that none of them would be able to reach them. Aside from that, it was the first time he had the strength to raise these two due to the Dark crow's gene's passive strength.

...

After an hour, a light breeze touched their faces as it slowly landed on the surface. Even though he appeared to be of great strength, this journey absorbed all of his time.

They had already seen the huge walls of the Arzotoc hamlet, but he refused to enter for some reason. The reason was his monster's wings, which disturbed him as there was a risk the villagers and guards might assault him because of it.

"Master Riku, why have you decided to land here? The village is already in front of us," Solomon humbly said, acknowledging this man's incredible strength.

Riku furrowed his brows as he heard Solomon address him in this manner, but he answered his question first to explain everything to them. "To answer your question, honestly, you two are the only ones who could see my ability, so I don't think it's proper to reveal my wings to everyone," he continued after a little pause. "Also, Solomon, why do you refer to me as a master?"

As he spoke these words, he began to notice a likeness between Solomon and Haru, the middle-aged guy who had raised him since he was five years old and taught him everything he needed to know to become a stronger mutant on Earth.

Solomon crossed his right arm over his left chest. "I've decided, master Riku, to devote my life to working with you, and I believe I can be of service in every way," he replied solemnly, determined to serve this man after saving him twice. He was also the main reason he was able to see his wife Jara and daughter Melissa again.

He scratched the back of his head, but there was no indication that he was doing it on purpose. So he just sighed heavily and said. "I'll ask for your assistance even if you don't refer to me as master."

"Yes, master Riku!"

On the other hand, Emma was gradually rubbing her chin, thinking that Riku's intuition was right. Why? The transformation magic always comes every one hundred or thousand years, so it was just appropriate if he didn't show it to everyone.

"I understand you, Riku," Emma advised, "but it's better if you increase your mana before you show it to everyone, because they'll just think you're a Dark therianthrope, which is obviously a monster with a human form, but the difference is, this is the group who kept attacking people so they could gain more power."

Since it was commonly classified as a shapeshifter, Therianthrope was self-explanatory, yet you could see some of the parts they shapeshift. The thought that came to his mind was that, aside from the other kingdoms, there was another group that could attack a certain town or kingdom, something he had not expected.

"Hey, wait!" he yelled, then dashed over to Emma to beg her again. "You've mentioned that I need to raise my mana, haven't you? Can you explain to me the process?"

It grabbed Emma's interest. "Sure, but I'll tell you about the details tomorrow since it wasn't as easy as you're anticipating right now," she remarked solemnly, pointing her index finger at the gate guarded by two guards clad in silver-plated armour and holding spears. "First and foremost, we must penetrate the village."

Riku had nearly forgotten that he was an outsider in this village as he hadn't yet finished the first innovation that made the inhabitants identify him as one of them.

But the most thing that caught his eyes was the surface, it seemed the farmers and guards didn't continue their jobs when he was gone for a good reason.

"Can I ask--?"

As soon as he was about to question the guards why the pipeline's driveway hadn't been finished, his head was stuck against the wall, his hands on his back. It was impossible for him to resist in this situation.

"H-Hey, what are you doing? I'm Riku Hirota, the inventor introduced by lady Arisu," he answered, thinking he had simply scared them with his clothes and the foul stench of the monster's blood.

"We know! How dare you return here after betraying our village!"

More guards emerged out of nowhere to apprehend Emma and Solomon, who were not far behind Riku.

"Eh? Betray? What are you saying, guard huh? I'm just in the forest-"

"Don't explain to me you, outsider!"

Thud!

Three of them were knocked down at once after the guards barely chopped their napes. While the other guards reported this incident to lady Arisu and King Luke.

"How dare you to come back here! The Rattin Kingdom declared war on this village."

The last thing he could hear while his vision was slowly fading away. Villagers, farmers, guards thought that the outsider was just to the pipeline so he can escape and leaked the information about the village.

...

Splash! Splash! Splash!

To begin with, Riku's eyes were widened and regained consciousness after there was a thing whipped on his back.

"Wake up, outsider! I have some questions about you."

Riku was back in the place where they tortured him before. He was certain about it since how he can forget the place where he almost died. He was looking around, seeing the two guards on each side and their superior was positioned in the middle.

Riku could breathe freely as he didn't see Solomon and Emma in this enclosed room. He was glad they will not experience the brutal torture that would happen to him.

Or easy to say, Solomon was set to free when the farmers and his wife claimed that he was inhabited in this village. The same thing happened to Emma, she was set to free after she saw her identification card which was the adventurer's template. In this, it included that she from to their friendly kingdom.

The two of them tried to explain everything but no one wouldn't like to listen to them. Since Riku vanished for several days without minding the other guards. To be simple, lady Arisu was the only woman who could help Riku.

At this point, Riku was naked while receiving an attack from the superior guards. The two guards had bothered expressions on their faces as the order to them was just to restrain for the integration not for this treatment.

"Sir Calin, I don't think it's appropriate to torture this man. This is not what is order to us, once lady Arisu saw this we are all done." One of the two guards said.

"Don't worry, lady Arisu, she will not see this man alive again."

Bam! Bam!

The two guards can't take the brutal experience received by the outsider. So the two moved out as they didn't want to involve in this incident.

"Where are you going?! Come back here! This man is obviously betraying the village so he deserved to die."

Riku had a malicious smile on his face, knowing that this man was wanted to kill because of the thing that happen to him and lady Arisu. "If you wanted to kill me; kill me right now.. Once I get out of here, I'll make sure that this is the last day that you will alive."
