Chapter 71 A Gift-1
Maybe all of this was part of some grand scheme by this God-Hater fellow, and by believing in this message, he was walking right into it, but no matter what that god was planning. He couldn\'t tell whether this message was legitimate or not, but he cannot take this message lightly either. He had to prepare himself for the worst-case scenario.
Immediately he got up, and went to pay Gendry, he wanted to get out of there as soon as possible, but it is then he wondered whether Hasan was waiting for him outside. Should he go from the front door? Or should he look for another way out?
Luckily for him, Gendry was a greedy man...
"40 bronze coins and I will forget when you left. Also, I will provide you with a back exit, you can disappear from there without being seen by anyone"
The toothy grin of that greedy barkeep infuriated him, this was plain robbery, but he didn\'t have any choice. He paid the man, and then Gendry let him come at the back, and let him use his back door. But it is then another thought came to him which made him stop.
<AN- Come at the back, and let him use the back door. �>
\'What if Hasan paid him to do something like this? What if by going from the back exit, I will fall right into his trap? What if I am just being paranoid? Wait, am I being paranoid?\'
His overthinking took his ability to think clearly, random thoughts about Hasan made him rethink what he was planning, overwhelmed by his thought, he then raised his hand and slapped himself, across his face.
KA-POW
He was being overly paranoid. The news about Hasan had hit hard, after all, he had started to consider that giant as a friend, but now he was overthinking everything, but slap made him regain focus, if this was indeed his trap then he could do nothing, he just has to try his best and not to get killed. He had managed to survive this far, so he could do it again...
The back door led him to secluded alleyways of the Vecrus, these alleys were covered in filth, were dirty, and most of all were smelling so awful that he literally felt his nose hair burning from their stench.
Navigating through alleyways, he eventually made his out, he reached the encampment outside the city, where he cleaned his boots and pants, which were covered in filth. After that, he made his way to the secluded side of the city, where he could think about what he should do next...
He was in a pickle, if he were to kill Hasan, even in self-defense, then he would come on the radar of Igor, that prick could have his license revoked and could have him thrown out of the city. If he decides not to kill that giant, and that giant decides not to stop his pursuit, then he would die for sure.
He could not determine that giant\'s level, but from his grip strength and the fact that he had been in this world for a much longer time, it was safe to assume that the man was strong. Now, the question remained, how to stop him?
While wrecking his brain, he had a thought that he should join hands with Igor, Hasan told him that the man was after his life, so if he were to kill that giant, then Igor can help him cover all of this up. But he dropped the idea pretty soon, from what he have seen so far, Igor is not a man that could be trusted.
He also thought about just handing over the deer to Hasan, but he didn\'t know whether he would let him live after that.
\'Wait, a sec... Why fuck am I being such a coward? I have fought an army of Kongs, I have killed an 8-foot-long monstrosity of a Kong, and help deliver the final blow to the Tribal Chief. They were all very stronger than me, but I still persisted. I can handle that mother fucker, if he wants to come for me, then I will see to it that this would be his last day on this hunk of rock\'
Thinking about killing a fellow human was giving him chills, and making him nervous, but this was something that he had to do. He cannot be that soft-hearted cook from America anymore, he had to reinforce his resolve, otherwise, as Grump said, he would not be able to make it in this land.
\'Hasan wanted that deer right? He wants the skill that the thing has stored in its stomach, then let\'s see, what this Skistag had to offer that is making that giant Earthian cruel enough to kill him\'
He made his way deeper into the forest. He took out his camping sticks and made a camp, then he took the Skistag, and started butchering that thing, he didn\'t have any proper tools, so dissecting that thing was a tad bit difficult, but still, after making some incisions around its stomach, he found what he was looking.
The orb in question was dark black in color, when he fished it out, a message appeared before him...
The player has found a skill orb.
