BXBX NOVEL Chapter 175 Heroic Doings
"There goes my plan," Seth said as he looked at his blood-covered palm, proceeded to flick the blood off it, and then turn to the woman beside him.
Other than her black hair and eyes, big tummy, and blue gown, Seth really couldn\'t say anything else about the woman, given that she was covered in mud and soothe.
Seth\'s eyes moved to the black-haired child peeking out from behind the woman, but before he could observe anything more of the boy, the woman moved in front of him, covering his figure with her body, her arms spread apart, though her trembling eyes spoke of the fear she felt as she stared at him.
" lästige Probleme des Lebens " the woman said, words which Seth couldn\'t completely understand, but then all of a sudden, the woman\'s murmurings to him turned to a scream.
"Ein Drache ist ein mächtiges Tier, das Feuer speien kann " she said, Seth still not understanding her, but the hand which she had raised and pointing behind him, was enough of a universal body language for Seth to turn around and stare at the group of black and green fellows that was running towards him.
So far, Seth had been grieving for his now ruined plans and trying to see if he could understand the strange language which the people of Ingrod were speaking, so he hadn\'t taken a closer look at the man he had just killed, but that was alright as his fellow approaching colleagues made for an unbiased observation.
A group of 13 men, wearing thick sleeveless light green robes, combined with black trousers and boots, and then they had on a black face mask.
They looked like ninjas as they prattled around, pulling out katana\'s and spears as they charged at him, none of them exuded the vibe of a typical medieval soldier.
Though the colors of their clothes made for a bright change considering the currently dim environment, Seth\'s interest in them quickly dies off as the next second he sent a swing from red to welcome their approach.
A red flash and the bodies of the 13 approaching men were sliced in two, a building begin them erupting in an explosion when Seth\'s still unweakened attack collided with it.
Considering that the men he had just cut down exuded at best soldier level auras Seth wasn\'t really surprised by the result of his attack, instead keeping his weapon away as he turned to check on the woman behind him, and seeing that she was still okay, he began walking away.
Seth hadn\'t taken more than 3 steps away when he heard another loud scream and incomprehensible utterings from the woman behind him.
Seth quickly turned around to check what was going on only to see the woman now on her knees, her palms together, rubbing over each other as she begged him for something.
"What do you want?" Seth asked, and as expected, his only reply was a blink from the woman, but it seemed his words had enlightened her that he couldn\'t understand what she was saying, so she scampered to her feet.
She stood up and then pointed both her and the child behind her, and then pointed at the barrier of the city\'s interior which was being attacked.
"She wants me to take her and her child into the interior section of the city".
Without much of a hassle, Seth easily understood the woman\'s actions, and he knew that there was no way he was granting her request.
Helping her meant that he would have to protect her throughout their entire journey, and this was work he wasn\'t interested in carrying out and he had only one answer for her.
With a sigh leaving his lips, Seth nodded his head at the woman who had once more begun rubbing her palms against each other.
He pointed at the interior city and then raising a finger, shook it left and right, and then a second later he pointed to the main wall, waving her to go in that direction, but a look of fright instead appeared on the woman\'s face, the woman vigorously shaking her head in refusal.
Understanding that she was scared of leaving the city, Seth waved at the woman to follow him, the woman quickly getting his actions as she picked up her son and followed behind Seth.
"And so my excursion begins" Seth lazily muttered, but he had just gotten those words out of his mouth when the sound of two pairs of feet running behind him entered his ears.
Seth turned around only to find the woman talking with two other women, one of them, carrying a baby in her arms, and when the woman he first met turned to look at him, her pleading eyes meeting his, Seth knew he was fucked.
Just from this, Seth could already see the near future, a horde of civilians flocking behind him to seek his protection like he was some guardian escorting them to safety which he would practically be.
Seth could easily stop this from continuing, but in the end, he only nodded his head, but this time just before he could turn around, about 5 women and 2 men and 4 children rushed towards him, their faces filled with fear as they looked at him, it seemed they feared the consequence of staying out in the open more than him.
Truth be told, Seth himself was confused about the reason why they would prefer to enter into a place currently under siege instead of staying out here or perhaps leaving the city, but seeing as he couldn\'t communicate with any of them, his questions were left unanswered.
He turned around and continued his walk, uncaring of the footsteps that sounded behind him or the various faces that popped up in the buildings ahead of him.
"Man, I really need a fuck, should have screwed Irene some," Seth thought as he observed his baby-sized enlightenment sphere, his options now severely limited.
