Chapter 13 - Long time no see

WHAT DID YOU DO?" his voice loud echoed bouncing of the walls and gate invade everyone's ears which got the attention of Asher who tilted his head and a grin could be seen while part of his face stained with drops of blood

Arnold's body vibrating with intense vigor from head to toe "raise your weapon this is an imperial degree, from this moment Asher le Mont is a fugitive of the khar'gixx region, criminals offense include disruption of livelihood, disrespect for the law and Murder, arrest on sight and if resistant kill, bounty 150 shardcoins "

The moment the degree was passed it ignited something in their heart nullifying all forms of fear and their gaze had the resolve to kill as they say money is a good motivator

Asher experienced that first hand surprisingly he wasn't afraid rather he was delighted because it is not every day you fight people who are gunning for head or rather the money placed on your head.

Asher threw the body in front of Arnold. The blood flowed like water pouring out from an outlet the ground accepted the fluid flowing onto it, replenishing it wasted resources "I wonder what resource he would turn into" Asher rubbed his chin looking at the body while Arnold's body vibrated but then a voice rang out from behind multiple soldiers began to attack Asher from all sides

Light taps echoed in a dark room the silence heavy like a solid object a mint-green hue dimly lit the room "there seems to be a slight change in plans" multiple groans were heard which reverberated throughout the entire room

"Not to worry it just extended the time by a little bit, added and remove some variable so we just to review and make some extension here and there"

A deeper voice rose up from the darkest corner "how badly were we affected?"

"Not too bad like I said a minor bump on the road that doesn't need our attention we still have more pressing matters"

"I guess I won't be using the alias Alex anymore." the figure release heavy sigh "he was one of my nearly successful operation"

"Well, I guess your remaining pawn are about to do your dirty work, and it seems that an interesting prey has been caught this time around"

"We'll only watch for now" a deep stern voice echoed the room and once again the room was submerge into silence

Multiple bodies lay on the ground without any spill of blood from them heavy breathing reverberated multiple feet moving some scratching the surface of the ground with the sole of their boots the clash of metal echoed with high impact sound followed suit, and suddenly a sergeant was hurled into the wall back first causing cracks on it and the male fell to the ground face first

A male with grey eyes and tan skin weaving through polearms thrusted towards stepping in breaking the stick and the grabbing the part with metal head and thrusting it right into one of the sergeant torso immediately steeping back as a saber slashed down he gripped the wrist pulled the male in and thrust him with the elbow and finishes up with a knee to the jaw

Asher's strike had no hesitation whatsoever, he killed whoever he wished likewise sparing whoever he wishes. He took the saber and drove into the group of people with rapiers using the width to block the thrusting motion he planted his feet into the ground did a wide swing and released a wind arc separating people from their upper body

The number of sergeant continued to dwindle as the white kept soaking life, he slashed the saber downward dividing the polearm and not wasting time change his hand and drove the saber into his chest added his weight extended the distance to the wall using his palm struck the end of the handle skewering him to the wall

His breath heavy body slightly bent over turning over to see Arnold staring at him with his saber drawn, Asher repaired his hat revealing his face slightly and straightening his stance his eyes were narrowed his jaw was slightly bruised

Both stared down at each other the air pressure began to rise small debris began to levitate the wind danced with Arnold's hair while they danced with Asher's coat, both had heavily heaving chest one from rage while the other from exhaustion

They began to approach themselves each step calculated and cautious then the speed began to increase from fast walking to jogging to running and finally sprinting. On the ball of their feet and body slightly lowered to gain more speed and the moment they met Arnold immediately performed a slash down in which Asher slightly shifted his body dodging the blade by a margin and pushed himself in pulling his fist backward tightening his back muscles and releasing it to his torso

The attack connected but not on Arnold rather on what seemed like a barrier which then expanded like a repulsion force sending both men flying backwards, Arnold stabbed his saber into the ground reducing his speed and as for Asher he was in backflip motion so he straighten his body midair slightly twisting it which made him twirl in the air and landed planting his hands on the ground leaving somewhat of a claw mark on the ground halting and dispersing the force

Asher looked up and a group of people approached behind a man 6'3'' tan skin sliver hair donning a black dress shirt with tuxedo and a white fedora the presence exuded by this man halted every operation almost like hypnosis and the male was the mastermind controlling them like puppet

Scanning the vicinity and noticing the dead body he looked at Asher his gaze not holding any form of emotion, it finally shifted to Arnold "explain what happened here" his tone was calm the kind you would compare to dark clouds gathering in the sky preparing for a storm

As Arnold was about to answer a tongue click was heard and it came from Asher, irritation annoyance anger "As usual not even a form of acknowledgement" he began walking towards the man his blood boiling his fist clenched tightly noticing this the male raised his an eyebrow and quietly exhaled as he watched the young lad approach

Moments later Asher stopped in front of the man looking at him dead in the eye "what kind of acknowledgement would be given to an outcast".
