Chapter 121: 115: No More Running

The first to move were the Faramouth Guards who stood behind Gunter.

Kotori used [Status] on them.

They were all well-trained adventurers with stats in the 60s. They lunged at Kotori’s group. It seemed like they were unaware of how strong Kotori was.

Shu stepped forward. A wall of rock appeared between Kotori’s group and one of the guards with a mace smashed it. The wall shattered and Shu stepped forward to take the punch.

The guard looked in shock as Shu took the blow head-on and it clattered against his manatamium armor.

“What the hell!” The guard pulled back his weapon. The flanges on it were slightly bent after it hit Shu’s armor.

Shu gave a thin smile

“I’ve longed for this day,” He said

She was a straightforward type. He had held his tongue out of respect for Kotori but all this scheming and sneaking was not his style.

Shu wanted to gallantly charge forward and protect his master, but he was always told to restrain himself. For once he was finally allowed to let off a bit of steam. He was relishing the opportunity.

Another guard walked forward slashing with his sword.

Shu deftly blocked it with an arm covered in rock and then retaliated by shooting a basketball-sized [Rock Bullet] with his other arm.

It slammed against the metal armor the guard wore on his chest denting it and blasting the guard against the wall.

The guard slump over and a low groan could be heard from his body. Evidently, he was still alive. It made sense considering the stats on these guards were about as strong as the adventurers Kotori used to work with at the frontier city of Feran. In fact, Kotori wouldn’t be surprised if these guards were adventurers to begin with.

The other guards were now on guard. It seemed like they realized that Shu was a formidable combatant.

Two more guards began to step forward with their swords held out and a thin slicing sound could be heard.

The blades of their swords instantly fell. Cut from Umi’s [Water Blade]. The men looked dumbfound at the empty hilts in their hand, before they were instantly knocked down by Layla who rushed forward and struck at them.

Her hands were covered in mana which looked like flames. Her tail swished in the air.

[I wanna fluff it!] Kotori thought. Now that Layla was fighting the tail was fluffed up like a cat’s tail would.

[Don’t cats do that to look bigger or something?] Kotori’s thought drifted. She was honestly having trouble think that there would be any problem.

The guards seemed to be taken care of quickly enough.

Fawks and Yukio watched as Kotori’s companions quickly dealt with the Guards.

“Are all of you fighters!” He said incredulously

“Mostly,” Kotori said a little embarrassed.

“It’s hard to be an outlaw if we couldn’t even defend ourselves.” She said.

Although, Kotori was considered a sort of urban legend among the adventurers she was woefully unknown among other people. The legend of Kotori had only started in the frontier city after all it would make sense that not much has traveled to the port city far to the northwest of Feran.

Fawks nodded.

Despite the ease to which Kotori’s group was able to take out the guards of the Faramouth Merchants, she was still eyeing Hatake in the corner. Although she was maintaining a relaxed demeanor she hadn’t lowered her guard.

Hatake was smarter than the guards. He was observing them, trying to learn the capability of each and every one of Kotori’s companions by using the Faramouth guards as bait.

He also had a relaxed expression.

“We’re leaving!” Kotori said

She didn’t want to fight Hatake, his stats were on par with theirs while buffed and she didn’t know what his abilities did.

[Status] could only see them but wouldn’t ever explain them to her.

Umi, Shu, and Layla all leaped back in unison.

“Why?” They asked collectively

“You don’t plan on fighting the entire city right?” Kotori said

“Well…” Layla said, shuffling her feet.

Shu and Umi were similarly flustered.

[Don’t tell me they were seriously planning on fighting the entire city] Kotori thought.

Her mana buff was only a 6-hour buff and they would be vulnerable once it was done. It was not feasible to keep fighting.

“Fawks, do we have a safe place to run to?”

Fawks was essentially an outlaw with Kotori at this point. The partial coup by Gerard had removed him from his seat.

“Why?”

“Eh? What do you mean?”

Fawks genuinely seemed puzzled.

“Running? I’m a prince of Eris. I have no need to run from a political squabble. I’ve already done it enough times” Fawks said

[Enough times?] Kotori thought.

[Is perhaps Fawks in Eris out of necessity and not choice] Kotori thought.
