Chapter 190 - Death Town



The group gathered in the tavern inside the Death Town. It was a small town, not over 200 people lived here. However, the town always bustled with adventurers. Today was no different. Kadyn and his group occupied two tables as they ordered ale and meat. Though they always ate delicious food cooked by Rayna, eating outside had its own perk.

Many other groups were paying them a lot of attention, as they had many women in their party; all of them were top-notch beauties. 

"No matter where you go," Cecelia whispered. "You will find some morons. Just do what you need to do."

Others smiled when they heard her. No more paying attention to others in the tavern.

"Hey, I'm Booga," they didn't pay attention to others that didn't mean others wouldn't pay attention to them. One of them came to their table. Kadyn lifted his gaze and found that he was taller than seven feet. He had bushy brows, and he carried a huge ax on his back. His gaze roamed on Cecelia, Nefia, Elora and every girl in the group.

"How can I help you?" Kadyn asked and gobbled his food, acting as if he didn't know 'his' intentions.

The robust man revealed his yellow teeth as he extended his hand, covered in grease. Kadyn just looked at him, without showing any intention to take his hand. The group chuckled, and Booga's face turned red. 

A vicious glint flashed through his eyes, but then he smiled and said, "Actually, I am here to invite you to join our team. I am rank 3 fire mage. All the mages of that rank are captains of their teams or loners. If you want to find something worthwhile inside the Death Valley, you got join a strong team."

"Sorry," Kadyn denied. "We don't want to join any team."

"I'm not talking to you, lad," Booga said flatly. "I'm talking to the members of your team. They can decide themselves, can't they?"

"Sure, they can," Kadyn shrugged and did not pay any attention to him.

"How about this," Booga continued to pester others. "Leave his team and join me. You will earn a huge profit."

"Sorry, not interested," Elora was the first to speak.

"I'm very happy with my current team," Zelie replied as a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

"Come on, man. If you are horny, go find the brothel." Dion didn't pull his punches when he spoke. "But you dare to come here and pester these beautiful ladies in our team. Are you asking to die!?"

"You—"

Booga glared at Dion furiously, clenching and unclenching his fist. Others in the tavern were also enjoying the ongoing show; eager to know the outcome of the drama. There were also a few tables that were deathly silent, looking at Booga as if he was a dead man.

"He could have antagonized anyone, but he had to push that Demon Lord," one of the men commented.

"Seriously," another man said. "Last time, Lamita tried the same antique, and he died a horrible death. He was also low rank 3 mage. Does Booga think they are weak due to their age?"

"Furthermore, the last time that boy just used his claw to crush Lamita's head. It was such a gory sight," someone else commented, people shivered as if remembering that sight.

"Take a look," a man who was silent until now spoke. "Never antagonize anyone because they look weak. First inquire about them and only then decide if you have what it takes to take them down. Don't die just because you can't control your dick."

"Yes, Boss is wise as always."

"How could someone like Booga compare to him in wisdom?"

"He is nothing but muscles."

The boss smiled and nodded pleasantly as he heard the praises showering on him from all sides. However, last time when Kadyn arrived in the tavern this guy also had intention to capture the woman in his party. However, Lamita was first to act, so he escaped the crisis, but he would never confess such a thing to party members. 

"I wanted to help you," Booga sighed as he looked at Dion. "Who would have thought that you won't appreciate my kindness?" Then he glanced at everyone in the tavern and again turned towards Kadyn's table. "No matter what the members of your party think, I'm still going to save these women. I can't watch them die just because of someone's negative influence. He must have used some kind of illusion magic to control you guys."

"This is too much," Zelie face-palmed herself and mimicked hitting her head on the table. Other members were also feeling comical. What the hell was going on? Was he trying to make them laugh to death?

"Boys," Booga said to his party members. 'Take these women to safety. We must save them from these devil men. I think they are the dark magic users."

"Just finish him," Kadyn couldn't take anymore. He gestured towards Cecelia who flashed a beautiful smile on her face before turning into a blur. 

"Puchi!"

Booga's hand flew in the air as the blood spattered. His party member who had just stood, froze on the spot. It took over two breaths for Booga to realize what had just happened, and then the piercing pain burst into his right arm.

"Ahhh!!!" he screamed and fell on his knees as he tried to cover his wound with his remaining arm. Cecelia was standing in front of him with an emotionless face. Before the tavern was bursting with laughter and cursing and shouting, but now, it was pin-drop silence. No one dared to make a sound.

"You people never learn, do you?" Cecelia shook her head. "Last time our captain killed a rank 3 mage. This time we thought not to go through this shit again, alas…"

She held a dark dagger in her hand and crouched in front Booga. The man was covered in blood and sweat. His face pale, his eyes filled with terror. The sight was pitiful.

But… 

"Puch!"

Cecelia didn't give him a chance to ask for mercy; there was no point.. One should learn to take responsibility for their actions.
