Chapter 7- ToughBlazer
882 Words
Ivan was a little agitated, he did not expect to see a man lurking beside him.
The rising shadow launched at Ivan, grasping his collar and lifting him up with a left hand, "How dare you, boy? Who are you?"
Although the man's voice was rough, Ivan was not frightened by him. Actually, seeing this man’s figure and the large scar on the face that went straight from his forehead to the corner of his mouth, Ivan was 100 percent sure that this man was ToughBlazer that Mr. Bowen mentioned.
Instead of answering the question, Ivan passed the letter to ToughBlazer directly.
Tough Blazer, with his right hand, took the letter in disbelief, then pushed Ivan to the side and opened the letter to read.
"Well, " he said. “It's from Mr. Bowen? So, he is requesting that I take you out of the novice village?” ToughBlazer made the conclusion after a quick read.
"You could join our caravan tomorrow morning. We will leave for Logan. Don’t forget to bring some food with you. It is going to be a long trip. Besides…”
ToughBlazer stopped and then suddenly punched Ivan, who cried out in pain and then landed several meters away.
“Besides…FallenAngel is with me so you will pay for what did.” He didn’t say anything else, he just walked away and disappeared into the deep side of the forest.
Ivan got up on his feet after he was sure the ToughBlazer was gone. He couldn’t understand what silly person designed NPC in such a senseless way.
He opened the Stats panel and saw that his HP had decreased to 50/130. He mumbled, “I can’t believe the first person that I need to heal is myself!”
HP+10
HP+10
……
Green numbers floated over Ivan’s head until his HP finally reached 130/130, while the skill proficiency became 16/300.
FallenAngel was standing to the side when she saw the green numbers above Ivan’s head, “Are you a Priest?”
Ivan moaned, "No, I haven't transferred yet."
"How can you learn without transfer?" questioned FallenAngel.
"Who knows? I guess handsome always gets a privilege.”
"Puff…" FallenAngel made a gesture like she was going throw up.
Ivan was curious about FallenAngel, "Well, I guess I haven't asked you yet, what is your class? And, what were you thinking about before? Hanging out of a tree for fun? Don’t you know how crazy that looks?”
"Hey! Watch your mouth! Didn’t you see that? I was with ToughBlazer before. The only reason why I was here is that there are too many people like you rushing to him. Don’t you know how annoying you guys are? Anyway, he transferred me to an assassin. Ah, God only knows how much I hate to fight and kill!"
FallenAngel continued, “But there’s a good side to it as well. Actually, I was hanging there to practice Breath Holding, and it’s not that bad. Anyway, I’m on the way to the Greater.”
Ivan was speechless. It didn’t make him feel better knowing that a strange tough guy offered some girl transfer and new skill proactively, especially when he only got a Lesser Heal after spending half a day to collect urine.
"So, now you tell me. Why do you want to leave novice village?" asked FallenAngel.
Ivan rubbed his nose, "The man standing in front you was born to save the world, how can I bend my knees in a novice village?"
The truth was Ivan believed the only chance for him to dig gold was outside of the novice village.
"Okay, if you say so. I guess it’s better if I stay here to practice more.”
“Wait a moment, you are also interested in the outside world? Come on, let’s go together! We can take care of each other, am I right? Or at least let me add you as my friend. Call me when you’re free. We can play together.”
Ivan added her to the "Beauty" group immediately.
"Well, I wish you a happy journey!" FallenAngel waved to say goodbye.
"See you later!" Ivan waved back.
After saying goodbye to FallenAngel, Ivan turned and headed back to the village. On his way back to the village, Ivan couldn’t forget the slim figure and beautiful smile of FallenAngel. He was so distracted by his thoughts of her that he didn’t realize that someone was walking toward him until it was too late.
After a high-pitched scream, Ivan saw a huge male figure fall down on the ground and land on his face. All of the man’s friends burst into loud laughter, which only seemed to annoy the man even further.
"Shut up! What are you laughing at?” He yelled.
Ivan guessed the man was a leader or something else important in the game since they all became silent after he shouted.
The man turned his head and noticed that Ivan was also snickering. He then raised his ax and scolded, "You son of b***h! Don’t you know to watch where you are walking?”
The man’s attitude pissed Ivan off, but before saying anything he looked closely at his ID, SovereignWolf.
Great, what a small world! Ivan thought. However, he had confirmation that his old friend, Sovereign Guild also played the new game.
"So, you’re from Sovereign Guild? We’re old friends," Ivan sighed.
None of the Sovereign Guild responded to Ivan. SovereignWolf asked his guild members, “Does any of you know him? Bishop?”
Everyone shook their heads, none of them recognized him.
The big guy shouted back, "Then what are you waiting for? Teach him a lesson!"
