Chapter 63 Village rumble. (1/2)

Two ht The visibility was bad but the two just couldn’t hold it in any deluded alcohol for most of the day, the two needed to e loud while having fun They had hit it off big this tied to take over a caravan filled with riches They had suffered a se, the defenses of their prey crue for the ti Soon they would need to h all the loot

This was a group of bandits that roa merchants or adventurers They would find certain aht time to strike

Information traveled slowly in this world, before anyone sent a subjugation force after the place they could even lay low for a feeeks until the coast was clear

They had been doing this for years, sometimes they lost some people but they could always pick up new recruits They just needed to dangle rewards in front of poor commoners like farmers and old adventurers Soroup After soing was now part of their lives

These tere part of that group Both of them were just farmers that were shoved towards this path because of a bad harvest After years there was no more humanity left in them, it was kill or be killed

“Why does the boss always keep the girls for himself, he could toss us a bone once in a while!”

One of the bandits said while pulling down his pants behind a tree

“You should be quiet, reht off!”

The othercare of his business Nor around if no enemies were around But this was an uncultured and untrained bunch of ruffians, they didn’t really care about proper procedures Even less when they were drunk

“Yeah, yeah I reh, wish he didn’t break them so easily Reh the night and she had the greatest pair of”

The ue and looked down

“Huh!?”

He was flabbergasted by the thing he was seeing A sharpout from his chest Before he could scream out a hand covered his mouth and the blade was shoved in further His vision blurred, his hands and legs felt heavy and he couldn’t help but close his eyes

The other man whistled to himself as he wasn’t finished with his deed either

“The redhead?”

He asked but didn’t hear the other

“Hey, are you there? Stop bullshi+ting around!”

The o far away fro a torch The bandit er but before he could pull it out so connected with the back of his head

There was a muffled explosion, the bandit’s head exploded like an overripe tomato Behind him stood a silver-haired elf, in his hand a heavy rapier This was Roland’s old weapon that didn’t see much use

The explosion was controlled, silent but quite h to quickly duck behind one of the trees to not get the man’s brain all over his clothes

“That takes care of two of theon stepped out frorim and Aredhel were here as well but the one that had stabbed the first person was Roland

He earing goggles, these were enchanted with a sis of the night so they had so similar as a racial trait The same ith their half-orc friend

“Don’t think we can take that gamble, it could be hours before any of theht be sober by that tirirab the bodies of the two bandits and toss theroup had arrived here half a day ago They hid in the nearby forest, luckily the bandits were preoccupied with their pillaging to notice the thee was a small one, there were only about ten houses and there wasn’t even a wall surrounding it The people living here werewith some hunters Only weak h for protection

There was also nothing here that would incite robbers or bandits to attack The farmers had almost no money and mostly ate what they cultivated themselves

They were quite unfortunate that day The remnants of the caravan that made it past the forced landslide had escaped here The bandits pursued and ended up in this place Froon and Roland counted there were between fifteen to twenty eneht down the number

Roland had deliberated if he should help the villagers or just ignore it The only reason for helping these people would be his conscience and maybe the loot that could be taken after the victory They took their tie from afar, the enemies didn't look that powerful and there weren't any tier 3 class holders around He would have had to give up on the plan if even one person like that was here After soot the better of him and the decision to intervene was made

“Everyone remember the plan?”

The three nodded but the question was rim who looked ready to e in after you see the signal”

Logon looked to Golgrim who in turn lowered his head in disappointment

“Take care you two”

Aredhel would also be staying here as she wasn’t on and Roland a little boost with soility and endurance

“Don’t worry Lady Aredhel, ill return victorious!”

Logon declared while Roland watched froe There were still a couple of bandits wandering around butoff

“Glad that these idiots have zero awareness…”

Logon nodded at Roland’s words while the two sneaked away

“Remember we only have ten minutes before the spell effect wears off, I’ll take care of the east side”

Logon nodded at Roland’s words as their bodies blended into the shadows Roland had activated the saainst the thieves he encountered back in Edelgard

With quiet steps and a cloak of shadow the two approached the occupied village This place was further away fros like street laht was the one inside of the buildings, which allowed these two to easily sneak up on their unsuspecting targets

……………………

“Hey! Why are those two idiots not back yet? Did they fall asleep outside?”

A rough-looking bandit with a bushy unke some fun with each other?”

Another one answered while e frown appeared on the man’s face that asked the question Two otherout loud while drinking more cheap booze

“Be quiet you idiots, someone needs to check up on those retards”
