Haaa ~~

“That’s weird.” I got up a little confused as I had just woken up and was still sleepy, as I still didn’t get enough sleep, I looked around and everything was dark, not really understanding what was going on.

First I started to hear screams, and then I started to hear the voices of some men who seemed very angry, they were loud enough that I could hear from my room, and I could also wake up.

Even without really understanding what was happening since I was sleepy, I got up from the bed and walked towards my bedroom door, I wanted to see if all this noise was coming from inside the house.

Ah, shit ~~

As soon as I approached the door, it suddenly opened in my direction, making me jump back so as not to be hit, and there was Lari, who went into the room desperately and locked the door.

“Don’t get out of here, do you hear me? Stay in here.” She was sweating cold and breathing heavily, even in the dark, I could see her eyes shining, they were covered with tears.

“What’s going on out there? And why are you so desperate?”

“Thugs, there are a lot of thugs out there, but your mom will take care of everything.”

Wait, bandit? Why are they attacking this village right now? Maybe they are taking advantage of my father’s absence? How do they know about it? What motherfuckers, I’m going to kill each one of them.

I let go of Lari’s arms and took my metal sword that I was currently using during my training, even though it was just a training sword, it was very sharp.

“What are you going to do? Are you crazy? Too many of them are going to end up dead, my job is to protect you, so you won’t leave this room.” She hugged me again to keep me from leaving the room.

“Where’s Lisandra? Is she okay?” I asked Lari expecting an answer, but the only thing she could tell me was that she had run straight to my room as soon as she realized what was going on.

Again I let go of her arms and headed for the door, making her run to me in despair and hug me again to try to stop me.

“Your mom is already out there, she’ll take care of everything, you don’t have to take chances like that.”

“You know very well that the mother can’t take care of a group of bandits alone as she is now. I know she was strong, but she has not retired for a long time? I still trust her, but I am still afraid that something happens. ”

“Do you prefer to die so young then to let your mother die? Don’t do it, for me.” Wait, let my mom die just to stay alive? This is stupid even for her, I would never do anything like that.

“Are you really saying that? I never thought I would say that, but let me go now I have to go. We’ll talk later.” I let go of her arms again and this time she was quiet and said nothing more, remained motionless.

I opened the door she had locked and gone outside to my room.

I still heard the screams outside, but first I went to Lisandra’s room to make sure she is okay, I walked slowly so as not to scare her, I tried to open the door but it was locked.

Toc ~~

Toc ~~

I knocked lightly on the door so as not to make a noise, then repeatedly called for Lisandra, to see if she answered in any way.

“Noah, is it you? You should stay in your room, Mom will take care of everything.”

‘I’m glad she’s here.’

“Okay, I’m going back to my room, stay locked up here and be quiet, don’t get anyone’s attention, do you hear?”

“Got it, I’m going to stay here, stay safe too, please.” Her voice was a little shaky, she was probably crying, and I could also feel the sincerity in her words.

But of course, I was lying, as soon as we finished our conversation, I walked to the main room of the house, and also to the only exit from the house, walking carefully so as not to make too much noise.

On the way, I was sure to check if Lari was still inside the room, but as soon as I tried to open the door I realized it was already locked, at least she is safe now, I can move on.

“Now, we have a brat here, I thought the inhabitants of this house were still sleeping, but I don’t think they would continue to sleep with so much noise outside, say brat, where’s your mommy?”

As soon as I arrived in the main room, I found a man taking some things and putting them in a cloth bag.

“My mom must be out there, haven’t you met her? She must be burning your friends right now.”

“Hmmm, there was indeed a woman like that out there, she was using fire magic, but she will not be able to fight so many people, probably my companions must have already taken care of her.”

“You are underestimating her too much.” I clutched the hilt of the sword with my hand and prepared to attack.

“Hmm?” The thug seemed to notice and dropped the cloth bag on the floor, I could only find the sound of some things breaking, and after releasing the bag, he also took his sword that was around his waist: “Brat, you don’t seem to be kidding, it is not?”

I could see that his sword was shaking, was he afraid? Are you just a coward?

“Certainly not.” I used my legs to give a big boost and jump over the living room sofa at high speed to find the bandit in the front, all while holding my sword with one hand.

I moved right and left quickly, all in a short space of time, I never felt my body so light before.

I felt my body get hot with the adrenaline that started to sleep me, besides the fun of looking at that bandit paralyzed with fear. Maybe I got in front of you in less than two seconds, with no reaction time.

With just one diagonal movement, and with just one scream, his right arm holding his sword was cut along with his neck, a lot of blood was running down the wall and it was all over the floor, and his arm he had flown a few inches away.

I had made a mess in this room, but it is a little nostalgic.

[You have leveled up – Current level 2]

[You received 10 skill points]

So can I also raise my level by killing humans? This is convenient.

‘This was easier than I thought, let’s take care of some more of them, and also find my mom, I am getting genuinely concerned about the bandit’s words.
