For the rest of the day, Dorian used his sword as much as he could, hunting the gangsters group by group. Unfortunately, they were too weak to create any challenge for Dorian.

He didn't regret the fact he slayed every expert level gangsters like the Leaf, because it wouldn't have made any difference. The gangsters hardly walked the streets, and they had deserted their previous headquarters under the windmill.

And even those Dorian saw, they would flee at first sight, no matter how many of them there were. To deal with this, Dorian offered a deal to every group he saw: If they could last more than ten minutes against him then he would let them go.

Of course, to actually learn something he had to hold his hand. But when it reached nine minute he would stop slowing down his skills, but not use his attributes. And even though in the end he only used his abilities rather than his attributes, none was able to live.

Still, it provided good experience for Dorian. Not enough to get to the Adept level, but still good.

The sun was giving its last lights, and Dorian was about to go back home, when he heard a sound. It sounded like a metallic object falling to the ground, and it was about 50 meters away. Normally he wouldn't have cared, but he was about to go back to the cave so he decided he might just check as well.

Jumping on a house, he passively used his Stealth not to make less noise, but so that his footsteps would be lighter and he wouldn't fall through the roof of one of the houses. It had happened once to him, as a kid on Earth.

He had been playing with other kids at hide and seek and found a marvelous hunting spot, the roof of a house. But he actually broke the roof and fell through it.

Anyway, he made sure not to break anything as he made his way to the sound. How surprised he was to see a group of five gangsters hurrying away from the scene.

With a great speed, Dorian rushed at them and blocked their path. They all looked at him shocked, panic overwhelming them.

Dorian said ”Have you heard of the deal?” They looked at him in confusion, of course they wouldn't now, all the ones who heard it died.

Dorian said ”Fight me. If any one of you can last more than ten minutes against me then you can all go. ”

They looked at him with doubt, and said nothing so Dorian threatened them ”If you prefer, I can kill you now.”

They shook their heads vehemently and began hushing to each other. Dorian didn't care to pay attention to what they said and instead counted from ten to zero in his head. When he hit zero, he said ”Time is over. First warrior.”

One of them stepped forward and unsheathed his sword. Dorian was a little disappointed, he had only seen swords until now. But among this group, there was actually someone who used another weapon. But he didn't step up first.

His first opponent was a youth, he probably never had been in a fight. Many of his opponents were like that, after all most of the gang was composed of those people. They would flash their sword and rob people, never having to fight.

And those were probably the sons of the merchants who attacked him. For those ones, they were useless to his training so Dorian directly uses his ability.

Dorian said ”Begin.” The youth charged at Dorian, crying his lungs out, sword raised with both hands. Dorian could see his arms were shaking a little, but he didn't know if it came from fear of just the weight of the weapon. Probably both.

Dorian unsheathed his sword and suddenly stabbed out. The sword dropped from the youth's hands, which moved around the blade piercing through his throat.

Dorian took back his sword, cutting the palms holding the blade, and letting the blood splash from the neck. With a kick, the still alive boy was sent flying a few meters away, now incapable of interfering with the fight.
