The Ancients World

~~~(POV: Commander Eren)~~~

~~~(Location: Fighting Chris near the entrance of Techart City, The City of Techart)~~~

~~~(Time: 9:35 AM)~~~

Ms. Adamo has likely grown tired of having to deal with events such as this. "Chris, when I'm done taking Ms. Adamo to her next destination, I'll make sure that you're banned from this city and never able to return." It's not a complicated process, and the magic used to ban him from the city will make sure he stays out. 

Chris, on the other hand, isn't that too fond of my words, which is understandable since I've basically threatened to end the life he has here in Techart. "You're not going to do a damn thing about anything, Eren! I'm more important to this city than you ever were!" I would've believed that a month ago, but not after he's fallen so far from grace within Techart.

Before the conversation can continue, I charge forward and start attacking. Since we're not in an official Duel, we can use our best skills and strongest attacks. He's not able to get through my defensive skills, and I'm wearing down his health slowly. He's barely dodging my attacks, but nothing is getting a significant enough hit to really damage him.

The look in his eyes becomes crazed, and his desperation is starting to become a hazard to the environment. His attacks are threatening to hit buildings and hurt citizens. People that haven't become Players yet and they will die permanently. I dash to shield a group trying to escape the out-of-control battle, and I succeed, but I sustain heavy damage.

Chris looks at me with a twisted smile and starts laughing out loud. It infuriates me beyond belief that he'd do something like this. "Of course, a weak man like you would put those weak little people before your battle!! That's what makes you lose in big moments like this!" He's fully lost his mind at this point, but before he can continue attacking, he's knocked unconscious.

As he falls to the ground, Ms. Adamo is standing behind him with her sword drawn. She used the butt of the hilt to knock him out. "How about you don't involve people that can respawn." She speaks to the knocked-out Chris. I'd normally feel shame at receiving any help in a fight, but given the cheap and low tactics Chris was using, this is easy to accept.

I fall to one knee and try to catch my breath. This didn't go the way I thought it would, but that's a part of life. Out of nowhere, Ms. Adamo is standing in front of me and holding out her hand. "Before we find that man that can tell me what I need to know, let's get you some medical attention." I don't hesitate to grab her hand, and she pulls me up with ease.

The unconscious body of Chris is lifted off the ground by the guards, and they look to me for orders. "Take him to the detention center, and we'll ban him from the city tomorrow. Make sure all the magic seals are activated in the cell. I don't want him breaking free." They take him away, and I can already see his party members are gone. Probably back at the guild.

<br/>It doesn't matter anymore, The Adventurers Guild will find a replacement fast, and this time they'll send someone competent instead of hiring a person from our city again. Chris was a poor decision to make the guild branch leader here. "The Church should be just ahead... They'll heal me, and we can be on our way..." Ms. Adamo having to see that does bring shame on our city.

~~~(Time: 9:50 AM)~~~

Commander Eren is being healed by the Priestess, and I'm sitting in a pew watching the process. The head of the Church here has decided to sit next to me. "I bet the healing magic that Slayer Zern is capable of is more impressive than the best the entire Church of Light can offer." I don't like talking about my brother with strangers, but there is nothing better to do at the moment.

The silence makes him a little nervous, and I find it humorous that such people take my silence with such value. "Slayer Zern is capable of incredible things, and I've been on many adventures with him. His healing powers are something to envy. He doesn't use them all that often. We're fighters, and we only take fighters with us. The only times he's used his healing abilities was in town begging for it." There were times that I thought he actually enjoyed helping them.

My brother is off doing something extreme, and he's probably almost done with all his tier-up quests. "Where do you suppose Slayer Zern's destiny will take him?" The Priest doesn't know how close to home this hits. My run-in with Angelus has opened my eyes to many things. The future being one of them. I'm worried about my brother. 

Cera is strong, and I know that he can take care of himself, but I have a bad feeling that he'll fight something or get into trouble that he can't get out of with his own power. "My friend's destiny is not your business or mine." That's my answer to his question, and he takes that as his queue to leave. It takes a few more minutes, but Commander Eren is fully healed.

He stands up and gives his thanks to the Priestess, and we make our way out of the Church. "Alright, the man we're heading to is named Flintock. He knows a lot of things about... Well, everything. If you have any questions, he's the one to ask. It's a 20-minute walk from here." Commander Eren leads the way, and I follow behind him. 

The City of Techart is a place that many people call home, but it's not going to continue surviving without something to help them. There is a lot of pressure on the City Lord. We walk in silence the whole way there, and pretty soon, we stop in front of a house. "This is where I leave you." He bows his head and takes off toward the way we came.

~~~(Time: 10:33 AM)~~~

A loud knock on my door interrupts the flow of the book I'm reading. I stand up and make my way over to the door and open it. A girl greets me, and she's a strong one. "Are you Flintock?" Her mood is a little standoffish, but that's to be expected. I nod my head, and she raises her eyebrow. I step aside so she may enter. 

She looks around the living room, and I feel like she's judging everything she sees. "What can I help you out with? It's not often I get visitors." The few times that I've gotten people over this year were from the knowledge I hold about the local area. She turns to look at me, and I feel as if she's staring into my soul. Her gaze is a hard one and built from many fights.

She folds her arms and closes her eyes for a second. Gathering her thoughts. She holds out her hand, and an item appears. She's a Player, so it goes to show that she has an Inventory. "I need help finding the other half of this tier-up item." I step forward and Inspect the item. My breath leaves my lungs, and I start to sweat. 

This woman is a Legendary Class holder and the one that has been in our city recently. She's here on her tier-up quest.
