Chapter 1151: Ch 1151: First Battle Against People
As Shin and his friends were going toward the gate, they suddenly changed their path and instead went toward a back alley.
Obviously all of them had noticed the people following them. These adventurers were not weak by any means but their ability to hide their presence was terrible.
That was why Shin was luring then to a remote location to deal with them. As for if he was capable of that or not, Shin was feeling quite confident. He had the support of his powerful friends too.
...
Seeing the young men going to a back alley while looking around like lost lambs, the adventurers following them had a laugh.
If they got lost in a city like this, then there was no way for them to be good and powerful adventurers in the future. No matters how talented they were, experience was more important when it came to practical work.
But as this was a good thing for them, the greedy adventurer were obviously not going to complain. As long as they could get the spatial storage item, they would be satisfied. And if they could also capture some of these newbies to sell them as slaves, that would be even better.
So, now that they were feeling even more confident and super excited, they waited for the boys and girls to reach a remote area and immediately attacked them without holding anything back.
A battle immediately broke out between two sides. The attacking adventurers had thought that they were able to do a perfect surprise attack but that was definitely not the case as the children were already aware of their presence.
There were a total of 7 adventurers who were attacking and among those seven, 5 were E ranks with power level of 2.
But the other side had only three real rank 2 combatants. The timid looking boy Nakamura and the large boy Kashimo were at the peak of rank 1 but had not managed to make the breakthrough to the rank of 2.
So this definitely was not going to be an easy battle. But still, this was not something that Shin and his friends were not capable of handling.
Shin took on two rank 2 alone and Shuzu also did the same. As for Tatsumi, even though she was also more than capable of taking on two of these adventurers, she only confronted one and instead focused on supporting the other two.
Just like that, the battle situation became completely manageable. Even against two, both Shin and Shuzu were not having a hard time.
Shin’s whole body started to glow with glittering starlight and his physical strength immediately got a massive boost. Then while his fists were covered in the same starlight, Shin punched and challenged a sword head on with his bare fists.
Seeing this, the man swinging the sword could not help but laugh at the foolishness and inexperienced of this boy. But that condescending smirk disappeared immediately as soon as the fist and the sword made contact.
The sword swinging man had expected Shin to lose an arm in a bloody fashion. But instead of that expected result, what happened was bizzare and unbelievable.
When the punch connected with the sword, it was the sword which suddenly broke. On the other hand, the starlight covered fist was perfectly fine.
This sword was definitely old but it was also quite well maintained. So it could not break because of a mistake and it could only be destroyed if the other side was strong enough.
This sword was something that this man had bought after his first ever promotion to the E rank. So it definitely had high sentimental value. So losing it made him very mad.
And witnessing the strength that Shin just displayed, his partner also got serious. It looked like this boy was broken with not just his advancement speed but his foundation was also better than theirs. Geniuses truly were disgustingly unfair.
So both of the men became serious and started to utilise battle arts. Battle arts were the method used for someone to fully utilise their own powers and facing it, even Shin could not remain carefree.
He suffered quite a few injuries because of the battle arts even though none of them were dangerous. Still, he was unable to get any advantage in this situation.
So immediately Shin decided to use some battle arts of his own. And as soon as he did so, the figure of a large bull made of starlight appeared behind him.
This was the battle art called "Angry Star of Reckless Tauros’. With this, Shin would get a strength boost for a certain period of time and would get slightly weaker after this time period was over.
So, with his newfound strength, Shin had no problem in defeating both of her opponents. Then he finally was able to look at how his friends were doing.
And as soon as he did so, he was dumbfounded. It turned out that he actually was the last one to finish his battle. Everyone else was done with their battle way before him.
Tatsumi had used a lightning spell to shock her opponent and paralyse him immediately. This was the most straight forward method to incapacitate someone without killing them.
As for Kashimo and Nakamura, as their opponents were just regular rank 1 while they were at the peak rank one, their battle did not last for too long.
And for Shuzu, she was way too strong and had defeated her two opponents in no time, without giving them any chance of attack her with her hyper agressive battle style.
So as everyone were about to celebrate a little after their successful first battle, suddenly they sensed a poweful presence. And then, a man with scars all over his body and a massive axe appeared before them. Sensing his aura, everyone became super serious. That was because this man was giving off the aura of a rank 3 powerhouses, which would make him a more dangerous opponent than even 20 or more rank 2 people.
Seeing the young men and women, the axe using man gave an unpleasant laugh and said -
"Hehehe, if you all younglings do not want to get hurt, gjve me the spatial storage item and came with me without any resistance. Or I will be forced to use force, violent force. And the result of that would be very ugly."
So what would the young boys and girls do in a situation like this ?
