Chapter 63: Where And Who Is The Librarian? (1)

As Kenji called out, a quick blur of pink colour flashed around the cultists, making them confused as to what it was.

But before they could even contemplate on this seeming problem, a sigil ( magic circle) appeared a few feet away from them. The sigil brimming with dark energy, as a shadowy figur- no, a shadow beast appeared. It’s height towering above the book shelves, as it’s head almost touched the ceiling of the library.

Seeing this beast of a monstrousity in front of them, the cultists all yelled out in fear, as they took a few steps back in fright. With the one with the ice sword dropping it in fear.

" Wha- what Is that thing? That can’t be a shadow beast, they only appear in dungeons!" One of the cultists said, his voice stammering, as he looked on in fear.

He was right, shadow beast, unlike fire sprites, only appeared in non-matter dungeons. And everyone knew that it was impossible to tame monsters from dungeons. So whatever this thing Kenji had just summoned, it was definitely not a shadow beast, but something identical.

Yes! It has to be!

Something identical!

With this realization in heart, the fear enveloping their hearts immediately washed away like calm waves.

" Haha! You think you can scare us with a pink blur and a fake shadow beast? Ha! We’re from the crimson veil cult! There’s nothing you can do to us!" A cultist said with reignited confidence.

" Really? Just a pink blur?" A soft melodious voice suddenly rippled trough their ears like an angel speaking directly from heaven.

But unlike what they had expected, instead of an angel appearing in front of them, a fox with a patch of white fur on her forehead shaped like a cresent moon.

Immediately they saw this beast, the bandits eyes widened in shock.

* This is a Cloud Moon Fox! This is the one the cult had lost!* A wave of realization washed over them, as they recognized Haruka with a glance.

Immediately, they all subconsciously turned there head to look right at Kenji, and Immediately, their smiles of confidence, became grim hatred and determination.

" That’s him! That’s the Kenii the cult is after! He’s the one who thwarted our plans by saving this fox!" A cultist suddenly exclaimed out loud, as he immediately connected the dots, and realized that the current wanted man on the list of crimson veil cult’s "must-die" list was the same man standing in front of them. The one who had taken away their dreadiron ore mine.

Kenji and Haruka turned to look at each other in shock, as the words of the cultist not only hit the other cultist, but also Kenji and Haruka.

The day they had met.

The day he had saved her from the people who wanted to kill her.

They both couldn’t believe that those people were part of the crimson veil cult.... meaning....he had offended them wat before he noticed it himself.

" If that’s true, then..." A bandit said, his voice heavy.

Immediately, his colleagues frowned as their face became filled with determination.

" For the Ashen god’s awakening, we shall eliminate all adversaries, even family!" The four said simultaneously, as they all brought out a sword, dagger, whip, and bow and arrow, as they stared daggers at Kenji with resolute exppressions.

" Attack!" Immediately, they charged forward, with nothing more than a weapon an their belief in hand.

* Sh*t! This would have been the perfect timing for me to have my own weapon! Gorvan, you better have my Gauntlets ready!* Kenii thought, as he activated a mind link connection with Argoth, asking him to charge forward and take on the first two cultist, while he and Haruka take on the remaining two.

With he himself personally targeting the one who had threatened him with an ice sword on his throat.

* Good thing I didn’t bring the kids along* Kenji couldn’t imagine what he would have done of the children were here. He would have tried every way to protect them, and that would have caused him to be in a disadvantage.

" For the Ashen god!" The cultist said, as he conjured up another ice sword and slashed it down at Kenji, hoping to slice off at least an ear.

But unluckily for him, Kenji was prepared, and he dodged the attack without breaking much sweat.

After dodging, he definitely didn’t let the cultist go away just like that, and he immediately sent a kick flying to the ribs, a punch to the gut, and a knee to the head!

All of this created a swift combo attack that Immediately made his opponed hiss out in pain, as he recieted and took a few steps back.

" Now, any last words?" Kenji asked, mimicking the words o the cultists a few moments ago, and just like that, he punched off the head of the cultists!

Blood spurted out, as intestines flew out like a confetti of crimson ribbons. The sight alone was going to be enough to give a fully grown man nightmares. But not for Kenji.

Kenji had a strong will power, and that will power had grown when Shreya bonded with him. Although yes, this was the first time killing a human, and in a library at that, he didn’t feel much of an emotion as he had previously thought.

He was expecting to feel sad, or enter into some kind of traumatic state, and that was the main reason why he tried his best to not kill.

But there was only one problem: there was no way he was going to preserve the life of a molester and a murderer, after being about to be killed himself. No!

He wasn’t that gullible. At least not anymore.

°°°

Seeing the rain of blood and the stench of a gore filled fight, Argoth took in a strong whiff of blood, something that he hadn’t smelt In a long time since being Kenji’s tamed beast.

Immediately, his already bloodshot eyes turned straight into that of a rampaging beast that had just experienced smoking weed for the first time.

It was both intoxicating and mind clouding. It sent him back to the times of old. The times when he would rampage with all the rage and resentment in his heart, killing and striking down every single adventurer that dared to enter it’s territory.

He had almost forgotten.

But now, with the thick stench of blood, he remembered.

He remembered that he was a master of the shadows, one no one could control....except one.

Kenji.

" Rarrrah! Argotthhh!!!" For the first time, he accepted his name and spoke it with blood thirsty vigour!

°°°°

Unlike Argoth, Haruka was less affected by the stench of blood than he was. On the contrary, she realized that Kenji had just killed someone for the first time, and that could mean he might get traumatized.

But looking back at the handsome blue haired man, her grim exppression turned into a smile, as she realized that she had just probably been overreacting.

He had a calm expression on his face, as the aura around him, although a bit chilly, still felt as warm and kind as the same Kenji she knew.

He wasn’t fazed by his first kill.

* Yes, I picked the right master...and best friend,* she thought with a smile, as it seemed like a sudden wave of determination coursed through her and struck the cultist she was facing off against.

In a few more strikes of claws and teeth, she had bested her opponent, but decided not to kill him.

A death had already occurred and blood showered the library, there was no need to plunge it into more blood.

" Rarrrah!"

Suddenly, both her and Kenji turned their heads in the direction of the roar, and both became quietly amused and suprised at the same time.

Argoth was seen , carrying two cultist by their legs and smashing them against each other like they were rag dolls being dusted off of each other.

The two victims were screaming out of their lungs, although mages, they couldn’t summon a single spell, as they couldn’t concentrate on a spell, even the weakest one, due to the disturbance of pain and embarrassment. It was just impossible for them to think anything other than: Help! Please save us!

Kenji and Haruka looked on at this disturbing sight, as they felt a wave of pity for the cultists, silently praying in their hearts that Argoth doesn’t kill them in such a manner.

Though, it was expected, I mean; Argoth was on the same level as a B rank warrior with a super big body, while the cultists were just common C rank, they had already signed their death Warrent the moment they thought they could take on Argoth.

Truly, the only reason Kenji was able to tame this monstrosity of a beast was due to the fact that he had his life on the line while he was fighting it. Also, if not for Haruka, although an unawkened Legendary blood beast, he might have lost his life the second time that day.

" Well, at least we’ve cleared the problem, and Evelyn is now oka-" before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly realized that she was gone.

Yes, gone, as in vanished!

The one they were fighting for had....fled!
