1082 Words
Finally... The time has come... We're chasing the Orc Lord and the Nobles that's trying to coup the Alkem Royal Family.
Rhea Absolut easily keep tracks of them... So we're watching them from the top. We're stalking our prey in the Cloaked mode. This poor people has no idea what's in for them...
"So our opponent is not only an Orc lord and the army of Orcs... And also the Nobles with his troops..."
Mashura stated with disgust in her face... Her tone is telling me that she don't want to do it because she's too lazy to do it...
I mean, I understood where she's coming from. Why should we care? It's not our job to kill the damn Nobles and Orc Lords... Why do we care? It's the task for the Royal Family to take care..
"Speaking of which Alfredo. Can't you just shoot them using your Gyzus?"
Mashura said that as she gaze over the Case. The brand new case has been completed... It's pretty artistic if I say so myself. There's a Dragon being slain in the case so, it's cool...
"... I can't shoot them with Gyzus. It's not going to be fun if I just kill them with Gyzus immediately. I mean, remember, we don't really care about this thing happening. The only thing keeping us in this matter is the fact that the Royal Family will pay us really good. And also, the city of Aligh might be in our hand if we kill the nobles."
I told Mashura why I want to partake in this. She just sigh when she know my reason... She look at me like she's telling me 'You're dirty. But I guess that makes me Dirty as well.'
She's smiling though.
We just sat on the Door... Watching them scramble around the area trying to go undetected...
Sure, The radar of the Royal Family might not detect your movement because it look like a normal citizen rushing through the forest...
"But still though... To think that we're actually destined to be here... I bet these guys would never attack it in other time..."
"Yeah... I agree with you Alfredo. We're called to be here... The fact that we're here right at the time called the Moon Festival... Is really abnormal."
Moon Festival... A Festival that celebrate the the wellness of the Kingdom... It's a Yearly festival. And at this time, they're preparing for the festival... No one is expecting an attack right now... So, this is the blind moment that the Aligh Nobles has been waiting for...
"Well... After we finished them off... Want to go around the Moon Festival with me?"
I asked Mashura with slight blush in my cheeks. But still, I didn't take my eyes off my target. A Treasure Hunter... Never let go of their Treasure... Always keep it in their field of vision. That's what I believe.
Anyway... Mashura blushed really bright... She just look away from me in embarrassment...
You know... Moon Festival means other thing as well... The Moon Festival not only celebrate the Wellness of the Country... It's also the date where the Kingdom first standing... And also, the date where the King and Queen always get married...
So technically... I invited her to the Moon Festival Means that I'm proposing to her... And yes... I'm proposing to her.
As we're enjoying our romantic atmosphere... Suddenly... A stone was shot straight toward us... But we didn't care... Because it goes straight to the other side of Rhea Absolut.
"... Seems like I have something to kill."
I immediately pull my Gyzus out of the case and aim it through the stone and then I notices why stone was thrown toward us...
There's a Seer Orc... Something that is very dangerous... When I scope through, they were confused. They probably thought that something is happening in the sky. But nothing was there...
The Seer notices my killing gaze and immediately told everyone to disperse... The Nobles disperse first while the orcs obey the orc lord to protect the nobles....
Mashura notices something strange...
"That Orc Lord... He can speak human language."
"... Really? Wait... He does... That mouth movement is Human language... This is bad..."
"Yeah... It seems like the Seer told the Orc Lord about our intent and the Orc Lord immediately translate it to the Nobles."
Now I'm thinking... Mashura told me to disengage. But I keep aiming...
"Stop aiming. You're going to make them suspicious."
"Don't worry. The Seer is their trusted man regarding their safety. If I keep aiming at him, his feeling is constantly in danger... Telling everyone to run away every time... But because nothing happened, They're going to put distrust in his decision..."
Mashura was silenced by how bad my intention are... It's definitely evil. But hey, That's why I'm a genius.
"That's why you're a genius huh."
Exactly. Thank you Mashura...
Anyway... We keep chasing and putting fear on the orc. Especially the Seer... Slowly but surely... Their movement was hindered and slowed... The Nobles started to ignore the warning of the Orc Seer... They keep moving...
I put my hand on the Trigger of Gyzus. The Seer notices that and then warn the others about it. No one cares. They continue moving... So with that...
"Let's kill the Seer."
I inform Mashura... She stand up and then prepare herself to jump down...
The Nobles won't back out if the seer died... The Orc Lord are their ace card... As long as he's alive. They're going to continue moving...
And with that, I pull my trigger... Bang. The Seer is down... Panic ensues... But I see that the Orc Lord commands the rest of the Orc to keep moving as the Nobles ignore the corpse...
The Orc Lord gaze at the sky toward us. But he can't see us... So he ignore it and then continue moving.
"Fool... Those who can't detect any attack from the sky... Can't win any fight."
Mashura immediately jump down after saying that cool thing... She boosted down the air with her Prototype Wind Walker. She enter the trees and then stalk them from behind...
I look down on the Orcs Soldier and then readied my Gyzus once again... But, I didn't pull any trigger... Instead of killing them all here, I'm going to protect Mashura from behind so that she can focus on gathering information and potentially, if anything is deemed as too dangerous by her... Eliminate everything instantly...
