Chapter 800: 785 Street Trouble



We arrived in front of the inn that Ran owns. I thought it would look like a traditional Japanese inn but it was instead a regular inn usually found in other cities on other continents. I have not been in this inn before as it is always full and many players gather there at that time, I am more of a player actively looking for trouble so I didn't stay that long in Soyokaze City as this place is more of a hub for all players to stay in during the Shogun war.

So when we entered and saw the interior, I was surprised. Despite the difference in looks from the outside, the inside was a traditional Japanese inn, and only the exterior was not similar. There even was a courtyard we passed by and a pond where koi are swimming around.

"So does this inn also consist of a hot spring?" I asked to check whether this completes the traditional Japanese Inn.

"Why yes. Of course, we have hot springs here. If you want to go dip into the warm water, then no one is stopping you. It's also a hot spring that replenishes both your health and mana and removes fatigue according to some customers, they also felt a lot more vigorous after taking a quick bath as well though I can't confirm it as it was usually random and not everyone can feel the effects that they are talking about."

That sounds great. After a long day of fighting, it will be a great way to soak into the hot water and even I am very into that kind of stuff.

We were still going to the room when we started hearing screaming and some stuff being thrown or falling apart, some objects breaking, and many other things that suddenly is occurring outside. It's very loud so even those people inside who we just passed by even started to get curious and looked at the windows.

"What is going on?" I asked.

"Ah, don't worry about it. It's the riots that are happening every time the guards of the shogun decide to come and cause trouble here. I don't know what happened to them but after the shogun has been showing his violent side, the soldiers seem to also start using their authority and abusing them all of a sudden. I don't know what they were doing for them to be like this. Just ignore it and everything will be fine for later."

"When did the shogun begin to show off that behavior of his that suddenly became hostile to other people?" I asked.

"It has been a month since then and that is also how long these soldiers start to exhibit the violent behaviors they have been doing now and we can't even apprehend them as that would just spell trouble and we don't want to gather the wrath of the shogun himself."

I honestly agree with Ran on this one based on the experiences I have before in the past but since the violence that the shogun has done and the soldiers exhibiting violent tendencies all of a sudden, then that means I can still do something about it.

"Your Majesties, just go ahead and do whatever you needed to do. As for me, I have to test something out. I will be back in no time."

And without explaining anything, I went ahead and started to run down the hallway and exit the inn just to witness a lot of people on the road lying on the ground, injured and totally unconscious while a few are still conscious but like the rest of them, they are injured and are groaning in pain.

Not too far from my location are the guards that are currently harassing a woman protecting her kid. They are currently kicking her and are trying to make her let go of her kid. There are some people trying to intervene but they are also not able to get close as one is threatening to pull out his gun and shoot them.

I didn't bother to make any sort of noise and activated [Silent Sprint], then immediately closed my distance from them.

"Get some sleep."

BZZZZTTT!

Two of the guards shook as electricity runs through their bodies before collapsing and losing consciousness. Before the rest of the team can react, I also did the same thing to them and they all collapsed to the ground, stopping their violence.

I looked around after dispatching the soldiers to see whether there are any more soldiers left behind. Once I ensure that the soldiers I just electrocuted were all the soldiers that are currently harassing people, I pulled out a bottle of splash potion.

"Don't move, I will pour some potion to heal up your and your daughter's wounds," I then proceed to pour the potion on them and the wounds they accrued are disappearing slowly until every single wound they suffered had been healed.

"T-thank you. But what will happen now? You just knocked out the soldiers here! Once they wake up, they will report this incident to the higher-ups and they will doom this city as a result!"

The other villagers also expressed their fear as well.

"No worries. I got a plan. Though I will ask for help and bring me a rope to help me tie them all up. We have to ensure they are tied up or else, we will be suffering as a result."

Fearing for what will happen, the villagers complied and helped me tie them all up. We make them lie down and once everything was done, I asked the villagers to distribute the potions I gave to them to the injured people who were affected by the incident. If there is any leftover potion, they can have it.

As for the soldiers, I opened up their stats panel. Even though this is no longer a game, the system that is still currently in effect all over the Alternate world still works and so I checked every one of them, and their statuses have one thing in common.

[Charmed][Mild] and [Possessed][Mild]

Charm is a very rare status condition in the Alternate World as far as I can remember. The only ones who can inflict this kind of ability are the Charmers and Enchanters which are pretty much a rare enemy to find as most of them are humans or other races capable of using it and on normal NPCs you can encounter, the Succubus race, and Incubus race are capable of using this. One notable incubus capable of inflicting this status effect is Merlin. Charmed people will be doing what actions the one who cast the status effect wants them to do. If they wanted them to do violence, then they will do it.

As for the [Possessed], there are two things here that can cause possession and that is the first and the most common enemies, the ghost-type enemies. However, not only them can cause that and most of them are using this skill to control or to make them berserk. This is what makes them violent like they are in berserk mode and they cannot be reasoned with.

Seeing both are still in a mild state, they are easy to remove. Once this gets worse and worse, it will get harder and harder for me to even remove it as well. But with a mild status, this will be a breeze for me.

Grabbing the splash potion Full Restore which I named based on the potion used in popular catching monsters games, this potion can remove all kinds of status effects, making it a good candidate for a potion capable of doing a job of multiple potions.

I doused every soldier with the Full Restore splash potion and ensured that every single one of them lose the status. Soon enough, all of them lost the status that was inflicted on them but I am not convinced and asked the people to help me undress them with their armor now that they are unconscious. I don't have much idea how they work but there is a possibility that after recovering from Full Restore, they will be inflicted by it again. And my guess is that there was something in their armor that will cause that if the status effect was removed which is why it got worst the longer the problem was happening. And whoever planned this is quite capable as they easily have done something I would consider doing as well.

While undressing the soldiers from their armor, Queen Tanya, Queen Tori, and Ran went out of the inn as well and looked at the situation. When they saw me with the tied-up soldiers, Ran couldn't believe her eyes.

"You apprehended them? Are you serious?"

"Yes, and I already know that this might doom the city if the other soldiers heard this but I finally found out the reason why the soldiers have been acting that way. And from the looks of it, it seems to be the main case."
