Tyrant

The moment Elune arrived to say h.e.l.lo to Tom the whole lot of warriors went nuts. Whistles and pick up lines flew worst than in a construction site but she just brushed them off and didn"t pay attention. Rahz didn"t understand half of the innuendos so he just acted as if they weren"t there.

Tom and Amber looked at each other and signaled through a grin to let it ride along as they was no harm in testing the battle prowess of the odd looking group.

"Honey!! Why don"t you leave those bunch of freaks and come join us"

"What"s a freak" Asked Ridd.i.c.k with a very confused expression.

Everyone just looked at each other like saying " Nope, I have no idea" and after a couple of seconds they all look at what seem to be a very smart person Amber""

Cough.. Cough.. " Let"s forget about it and head back, you must be hungry so let me invite you to some food".

Cheers!!

Nothing like the mentioning of food to put a smile in Rahz"s group face. They said goodbye to Tom and were about to head back when a very nasty comment came out of the mouth of one of the guards that scratch Rahz reverse scale.

"I am not sure what a pretty girl like her sees in that guy, Just look at him, he is so weird his Mom was probably a wh.o.r.e collecting the milk of 100 man to make...".

Before the soldier could finish the sentence his neck was grabbed by Rahz and chokeslam into the floor.

Boom!!!

"Ridd.i.c.k!!!" said Elune

When everyone looked at the scene in front of them, they saw Rahz with chains all over his body and they couldn"t grasp the time when a very chipped and rundown Axe appeared in his hands. Rahz muscles bulged while trying to break free and Ridd.i.c.k had to recast his spell over and over until Rahz calmed down.

All the soldiers rush to help their friend and were about to start with Rahz but they were stop by Tom.

"WAIT...You guys went too far and this is the result, just take him to see the old man"

"Don"t move him yet, you can make his injury worse" Elune cast Rejuvenation increasing the rate at which the guard"s cells healed and before she cast her second spell she looked at Rahz and said "I can"t heal him if you don"t remove it".

Rahz walked towards the injured soldier and was about to place his hand over the soldier"s chest but the others were ready to pounce.

"Is ok, if he really wanted to kill him none of you could stop it". Said Elune.

Rahz place the hand over the injured soldier and removed the lingering Chaos Energy from his body. Only Amber that was adept in Fire Magic was able to determine that Rahz did in fact removed a weird fire element ever so close to her Second Evolution Level.

Sacrificial Restoration!!

Everyone felt a divine power which heal most of the internal injuries of the soldier and took him out of the danger zone.

"You can take him now, he needs permanent rest for the next 2 weeks but he will make a full recovery".

Throughout the whole incident Amber didn"t say anything but she knew it was their fault that one of their own was now bedridden just so she could scratch an itch. The scene was quiet as Rahz left the scene under the gazes of all the guards that couldn"t take their eyes off that mess up Axe.

"Don"t get any ideas, let it go" Said Tom while remembering all that happened from the moment Rahz disappeared, to the moment the soldier was chokeslam breaking his bones, to the 2 healing spells cast by the Dark Elf. It was all very surreal, he had seen the healing spells many times but they were cast with a smoothness only seen on people arriving to the third evolution, not in the body of a level 17. Finally it was Rahz performance and the chipped Axe in his hands, Tom was positive it was made out of Iron but what made him weary was the thought of something that could bring that kind of damage to an iron weapon.

Tom frown as the face of his little girl came to his mind and he hoped the group of travelers they had just picked up didn"t bring them unforeseen troubles.

The caravan was schedule to leave two days later and during this time Rahz and the others fit right in. They were really good with the kids and love to play around, while they were extremely respectful of the Elderly. To top it off they cook amazing BBQ and fed everybody that wanted it.

The bodyguards were still mad about what happened to one of their own but Tom kept reminding them to let it go. He also kept repeating that they were only going to be around until they reached Naas but it only kept coming out as if he was just reminding himself.

In Tom"s mind there was something coming for them and it was without a doubt extremely strong and to make matters worse his daughter love hanging around them and playing different games with Ridd.i.c.k and Midori.

The days pa.s.sed and very soon they were only a couple of weeks away from reaching Naas and Rahz"s group was excited because having other people around definitely made the journey much more enjoyable.

In terms of combat they had not suited up as the only things attacking the caravan were wild beast. According to Tom this was abnormal as their cargo was very valuable and the bandit scouts probably already reported to their higher ups. In the 10 years as a guard he had to fend for his life in 5 occasions but usually they could pay "protection money" and move on. This time he hope to do the same so they could reach the city without much harra.s.sment, their family was growing and they couldn"t really keep putting their life on the line so the cargo was their way out.

As the Caravan move slowly through the road a ma.s.sive group of bandits appeared. They had 3 second evolution cla.s.ses and about 150 man. Tom and Amber went to speak with the bandit leaders and also show their battle prowess. It was a very common strategy as the negotiations with bandits were always a scale between the lives of the bandits and profit.

In this case profit won and the bandits started their attack on the caravan. Amber created a ring of fire but the number of bandits were considerable and just went around trying to avoid her spells the best they could.

The bodyguards trained constantly under Tom for this type of situations and were able to adapt and remain calm, however it was difficult for the others in the camp.

Looking at the situation Elune took a leadership role and gathered the none fighting personnel in two carts which she then protected with a couple of wards. Since the size of the carts were too big compare with and individual it was logical that the wards weren"t very strong, however, they could still stop a few range attacks and she could keep recasting it thanks to the Lotus Flower.

"Ridd.i.c.k, Midori go help Tom. I can protect the people in the carts"

Rahz took out his chipped Axe and held it over his shoulder. There were 10 Bandits coming towards the people but before they knew it, a pretty tall individual landed in the middle of their group like a meteor that started destroying everything in a 10 ft radius with a very corrosive fire.

ARGHHHH! Screams were heard as bandits were burned but they only lasted a second after the Axe started silencing them.

It was very important for Rahz not to leave the area as this could jeopardize the lives of the people in the Carts and even make it difficult for Elune to survive so he had no other choice but look at the fun from a distance.

Midori was extremely happy to be among the living because this meant her poison was extremely effective once more. She use skin clone and went underneath the earth and jumped at the back of the Bandits releasing a few of her toxins. Bandits started grabbing their necks as the poison enter their nostril and down into their lungs. Others were victims of her acid spray and melted on the ground, precious Energy experience flew in and Midori tremble with excitement.

Igor was laughing maniacally while throwing Chaos Fireb.a.l.l.s to bandits that were distracted while screaming " Ke ke ke ke I forgot how much fun is to melt people"

The 3 leaders were startled at what was happening around them, their man were dropping like flies and there were monster helping the caravan which cause a little bit of fear in their hearts.

Boom!!!

Ridd.i.c.k came into the battlefield and used Chaos Rush hitting bandits like they were bowling pins and if they didn"t died by the impact they were melted by the Chaos Fire trail. Then the corpses disappeared into a purple flame that was swallow by a demon.

"Delicious"

It was over for the bandits, they were down to ⅓ of their man power and they had barely manage to kill a few of the bodyguards.

"RETREAT!!!"

The bandits ran in a disorderly faction and some were unfortunate enough to be trap by Midori and Ridd.i.c.k that hate it wasting food.
