Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Bandits Attack

“He-help me, there are bandits here!!”

“S-save me arghh…”

The next day, when I was playing with they. There was a commotion, many people shouted bandits. I frowned, I think now that the demon race has started the attack.

“Lute, what happened? Why are so many bandits attacking?”

Silvie asked me, I looked somewhere before seeing them all.

“Let’s help them, after that, we go to Adventurer’s Guild,”

Everyone looked at each other and nodded. We rushed to the commotion scene, many people were lying on the streets covered in wounds. Silvie and Celyne became enraged, they immediately charged at the bandits. Seeing that they had advanced, I also didn’t stay silent, Dina, Lusi, and Yua also helped.

I used my chains, attacking bandits until they were seriously injured. Silvie would throw blue flames setting them on fire. Celyne will draw in the air, creating lots of fire butterflies.

After we all finished taking care of the bandits. We immediately went to Adventurer’s Guild, while on the way we encountered a lot of bandits making chaos everywhere.

We will defeat them every time they appear in our sight. Arriving at adventurer’s guild, many people gathered and lined up here. Guild Master is currently talking to a burly man with black hair and a greatsword on his back.

“You want me to give you 50 gold coins? It’s too expensive to complete this task,”

“Guild Master, you must understand if you want to use my power. I only received a lot of money for completing tasks,” The man looked at Graze with this.

Graze’s face darkened, heaving a deep breath. He looked at me with slightly raised eyebrows, then turned to the man.

“Okay, Barclay, I’ll take it,” Graze nodded.

“Hahaha, that’s the right choice. Let’s go.” Barclay smiled happily, leaving with his subordinates.

I headed for Graze, with others. Graze was relieved that I had arrived on time. But he was also surprised by many women around me.

“So boy, I have done what you ordered, is he traitor you mean?”

“Maybe so, but we need other evidence to catch him. What about Adventure Guild troops? Have you prepared at every location I showed you yesterday? “

“We have prepared at every location, and as we expected. There are a lot of bandits making a fuss there, they are also protecting this location.”

I held my chin, as Silvie and others knew that this matter wasn’t as simple as they thought. They got worried seeing me, they were afraid something bad would happen.

“Lute, what exactly happened? Can you explain it to us?” Celine asked.

I looked at them doubtfully, before speaking.

“Actually this is not just a bandit incident, but demons also participated in causing all these incidents,”

“What?”

They were all shocked when hearing the word demon was enough everyone was alert at all times. Silvie and Celyne felt uneasy, they wanted to immediately help townspeople who were in trouble.

“Lute, we have to help them, I don’t want anything to happen to the city.” Celyne held my hand pleading.

I looked at Guild Master, and he nodded taking out a city map. He pointed to the location we had previously marked. Silvie and Celyne looked at a location with surprised expressions.

“As you can see, this forms a pattern. We have to thwart their plans, I’ve put explosives in every one of these bases. What you need to do now is protect people who live in the vicinity. Can you?” I saw them.

They all nodded, in response. Corners of my mouth light up into a smile.

“We will divide into two groups. The first group was Me, Dina, and Yua, the second group was Silvie, Celyne, and Lusi. I want you to protect each other against these bandits because they have many members.”

“We got it, don’t worry about us Lute, we can take care of ourselves,” Silvie said.

I’m quite worried about them since I’m not sure how strong they are right now. But seeing those who are confident, I hope there’s no problem. Since they are with Lusi so I don’t have to worry.

Even though Lusi looks quiet and rarely talks, she has an ability that I’ve always admired. With her, fighting many enemies even demons would be very easy.

“Oh yeah, Guild Master, where is Uncle Braine?”

“When bandits attack, Braine immediately rushes to his trading hall, since this is the first location for bandits to attack.”

I chuckled hearing this, bandits immediately went to the trade hall to rob, their thoughts were very simple. But of course with Uncle Braine and the city guards helping to protect the city, it was definitely impossible. The reason demons needed these bandits was, obviously, to buy time, so they could prepare spells.

I also know, some guards especially from one of the nobles who will become my enemies in the future. Since they were also the cause of the demons being able to enter the city without any problems, they wanted the demon king core as payment.

I was hesitant at first, but after I whispered to the demon, whom I fought on before. From his reaction alone I know this is all noble’s work, noble’s family name was Matthew. In the game they will become enemies of the protagonist, they are also one of the influential nobles in Sailos City.

“Let’s go now. I remind you again, be careful, I don’t want to see you get hurt later.”

“Um, we understand,” Silvie and Celyne nodded.

As soon as our group split up, I told Yua to become a little Qilin along with Dina into a Slime, getting into my clothes.

I use my invisible ability, I will expose all crimes committed by an A-Rank adventurer named Barclay.

In the game, this incident was not taken seriously and was just an ordinary incident at first, although demons did participate, it was only a few of them. When the demon race cast a spell on the city, no one knew about it. This is also the reason why one of the biggest incidents in the story, namely demon race attacks, occurs periodically until the protagonist finds out cause.

Sailos City is considered an unsafe city anymore because of the frequent demons appearance here, the safety of this city is also questionable. As a result of that incident, Mervabis Academy accepted fewer students from out of town. I have to thwart this demon’s plan so it doesn’t become a tumor for Sailos City.

Jumping from roof to roof I searched for Barclay group. After finding them heading somewhere, I followed them from the shadows.
