Chapter 209 - Bleamen (5) (1/2)
Bleamen, who successfully arrived at the town's gate safely, looked back at his chaser. They were still chasing him. However, Bleamen didn't give them the chance to surround him, and he immediately escaped from the town in the direction of a nearby forest.
Bleamen was at the forest's vicinity when he looked back at the town. There was a legion of soldiers marching to it from the kingdom's direction. Luckily, he escaped at the right time, or else, the soldiers would surround him, and it would be too late for him to escape.
After a minute, Bleamen thought back on his experience. It was not too good but also not too bad. He learned a lot from his experience in this short journey. Then, he went inside the forest and looked for a remote cave inside the forest.
Finally, he found an empty dark cave placed remote away from the forest's entrance. There was one most important thing that he learned from this short adventure. It was difficult to fight alone. He went inside the cave. A few minutes later, a demonic aura surged out from inside the cave before gone in just a few seconds later.
Right now, inside the cave, Bleamen felt weak after the sudden released of the aura. However, there was not only Bleamen inside the cave, but there was another humanoid figure beside him knelt. The humanoid figure had almost the same appearance as Bleamen, a long ear, and a short bunny tail. He was missing several details that Bleamen had. He was also weaker than the previous Bleamen in a considerable margin.
Meanwhile, inside the town, there were only eight players left, including Auron, Julia, and Julia's teammate. All of them only felt regret and disappointed since they failed to complete their quest. A little bit more, and they would complete the quest. However, what could they do, everything had over.
All of them gathered at the town's gate, where Bleamen used to escape. Auron looked into the aftermath. It was such a heartfelt sight. Many buildings destroyed, some buildings also needed to be repaired. There were only a few building that left intact. The teleportation portal, which was in the middle of upgrading, also could not avoid the destruction. The fight destroyed it into pieces.
A few minutes later, the players heard a marching sound. All of them looked outside the town and found a legion of soldiers marching to their way. It was the Third Prince's troops. With the Third Prince at the front leading the soldiers, they arrived quickly at the town's entrance, where they met with the players.
”Where is the demonic monster?” The Third Prince asked.
Julia answered dejectedly, ”Escape!” She pointed out the forest.
The Third Prince also heaved a massive sight. He was too late. However, he didn't give up and commanded a group of soldiers to search the area. The Third Prince talked for a while with the players, before going out to the forest.
With their business here done, the players had nothing to do. So, they dispersed and went in their direction. Auron also wanted to leave the town to claim his prize for the first quest.
