Chapter 9: Meeting Scum yers Part 2


    They thought I was just a beautiful girl, they didn''t know I was a lethal tigress. Once they entered my spear zone, they were doomed. Although they got a tank that endured three hits from my stabbing spear, in the fourth hit he lost his life and one level plus two pieces of equipment.


    When others woke up from their shock I managed to kill two more. Their levels were only at lvl3, which was pretty weak for me. Just as their leader was about to hit me with his sword, I drew back rapidly escaping his fast de with faster steps.


    Shin appeared to hit the leader with a chop which took nearly one-fifth of his HP. This leader was at lvl4 but his HP was lower than expected. The remaining six yers were about to nk Shin. I appeared behind them to take two more lives with my spear.


    When they wanted to stop and hit me, Shin hit one of them with his sword while he was retreating under their leader''s heavy attacks. That leader was no newbie at all.


    His footwork plus these heavy strong strikes of the sword made me feel he was a veteran! Someone like him shouldn''t be here! But I saw Shin exchanging blow after blow with this leader on equal foot.


    Both of them don''t belong here. I didn''t daze at all as I continued to hit once and run, escaping these yers'' retaliation. In the end, I managed to kill all of them except the leader which was in a heavy duel with Shin.


    I looked at that arrogant man and pointed my spear to him saying:


    "You bastard wanted to take me with you? I will take your life now!"


    "Stop you crazy girl! This is a duel between me and him! Don''t interfere."


    "Agatha don''t interfere! This is my duel!"


    "Go duel with your deadrades you coward bastard!"


    What was this duel he was talking about? Two against ten?


    I didn''t give him any chance at all and attacked him with my triple thrush skill. I didn''t stop until he was dead! Shin looked at me and said while he was catching his breath:


    "You have entered a big trouble stupid Agatha! I told you to escape!"


    "Is this your thanks to me? I have killed them all, even their leader!"


    "Leader? They are just a puny team under the control of one of the aristocratic guilds!"


    It hit me without any notice! That Shin had a conflict with an aristocratic family too? Was he also like me? I looked at him in question but he rapidly said:


    "Take their dropped equipment fast. We don''t have time. The safest ce now is only in the vige. We need to hurry to that vige ASAP."


    I didn''t argue with him. He talked urgently and already started taking the fallen equipment.


    Ten yers each dropped two pieces of equipment, so the total sum was 20 equipment. I stored around 7 and Shin stored the rest as he was faster than me.


    His anxiety infected me so I moved without saying any word to him towards the vige. In ten minutes we were at the outer borders of the novice vige. But there was a wall of yers standing between us and the gate.


    These yers were blocking the entrance to the vige. I looked in confusion to Shin to see his face was dark muttering in panic:


    "Those are members of an aristocratic guild named The Godenal Guild. We need to withdraw now!"


    "Why don''t we try to prate their wall? They are just near the gate. Isn''t fighting prohibited in the vige?"


    "That is true if we are inside the vige. But they stand outside the wall and the gate of the vige."


    "Then let''s attack and prate their lines. Even if we die it''s just one death, right?"


    I saw a hesitation on his face. He suddenly said in a quiet mature tune that was different from Shin I knew before:


    "Listen, Agatha, I know that you have a grudge between yourself and those aristocratic families. I didn''t care about this conflict before. But now you are really in front of a tough choice to make.


    If you choose to help me and stand by my side, then you will be exposed to those yers. I suspected that you changed your name. So I suspected they didn''t discover your presence till now.


    If you choose to side with me, they will consider you and me in the same group. They won''t stop hunting you for even a second. They will send their dogs to harass you. They will try to destroy everything dear to you.


    This is not a simple decision, but I need you to do it as rapidly as you can. As you can see, every second passes, they get more reinforcement."


    He discovered my secret! It wasn''t a surprise to me. I looked him in the eye and thought to myself: '' would I trust him and share my burden with his burden? ''.


    It wasn''t an easy decision. My burden was something more dangerous than his without a doubt! I was about to decline when he added:


    "Don''t think too much about my troubles. Believe me; my problem is far worse than yours! You can''t imagine how bad my situation is!"


    "If I joined you, will you tell me about your problem?"


    "For now it''s better for you not to know. It''s a deep-rooted problem that includes the fate of my Frod Empire. In the future, I may choose to tell you if I thought you are strong enough to bear the consequences of knowing my problem."


    I didn''t doubt his words. This mysterious Shin was different from that jokes addict Shin that I knew before. This man seemed more mature than his age by a lot.


    I sensed he guessed my problem, which was a grave problem in my opinion. Was there far worse than my fate? If he was right, then I was risking a lot if I chose to side with him. I looked at those yers who continued to gather nonstop and I remembered his previous words to me.


    "If it was me then I prefer to die struggling rather than this shameless death! If the guild was established earlier than others then this yer has a chance. If this yer manages to gather many skilled yers with him then his chance gets bigger.


    If this yer managed to gain ess to advanced technology like the Mechas you dream of then his position would be strengthened. My point is this yer shouldn''t hide; instead, he should n everything from the early beginnings.


    This yer should fight for a chance to live, who knows, he might be the only game heart is looking for. It''s a Destiny game that looked for countless years for this yer as his destiny."


    His voice echoed in my ears. These words changed my whole thinking; I wouldn''t choose to postpone the inevitable! Like it or not, I would face all those yers and even more in the future.


    Then why wouldn''t I start gathering yers under my g? This wasn''t just a crisis, but also a golden opportunity! These families built their myth over the bodies of yers like me and Shin.


    We weren''t the only yers that had grudges with them. These families were like tyrants in this empire. But no one dared to face them before! Even those who had a guild establishing stone, they were also afraid to raise their sound.


    They lived in fear. Many yers must have lived in fear. This fear must end here! I suddenly felt a rush in me and a great satisfaction. This felt like the right decision to take.


    What was left was how to use this opportunity to create a change. This was an opportunity as everyone''s eyes were focused on here if I used this well, then a lot of yers would hear about my deeds and listen to my call.
