"Stop!"
I said as they were leaving, they wanted to rob me but after seeing I have Rule power, they said I will not ask for my money and started to leave.
How can I let them leave just like that, I had at least give them little punishment. The most fitting would take all their stuff, as this is what they wanted to do with me.
They all stopped by my voice and turned toward me, "Do you have something to say to us friend." asked the leader.
"Yes, I would like if you all could give all your stuff to me, as you have said with Rule power with me, I would need a lot of stuff," I said with a serious face.
"Don’t joke, friend, we did not take your stuff because Rule power and you are not the only ones who had the Rule power." Replied leader and I felt familiar cool sensation oozing from his body.
Rule of Water! Came into my mind. The leader had definitely comprehended the Rule of Water.
Only Rule of Water had such gentleness with a slightly cool touch.
"You may have comprehended the Rule but I still need you all to give me your stuff," I said looking straight at the eye of the leader.
If he was any 2 nd level Rule, I would back down and let them go seeing how he is at the lieutenant stage but his Rule is just level 3 Rule.
"Why?" asked back the leader.
This time I didn’t reply to his question instead projected Rule of Sunfire into its full glory without holding back anything.
All the comprehension I got imprinted from Ashlyn is radiating from me.
Just as I did that, all four of them took a step back in a hurry, not only that they even erected their defense type skills.
Rule of Sunfire is not the normal Rule, it a Peak 2nd level Rule which is descended from Level 1 Rule, Rule of Sun.
Level 3 Rule even normal Level 2 couldn’t compare to it.
"Now, give me your storages!" I said as I tone down my condition.
I did that because I felt that if I asked them for all their stuff, they would fight and I may end up killing them which I didn’t want to see.
They didn’t even exclude shred of killing intent when they tried to Rob me, I would feel quite bad if I kill them.
They stayed silent by my question but all of them had cast an eye at their leader, waiting for him to take the first step.
"Take it!" said the leader finally after few as second as he took out storage from his pocket and gave it to me.
Seeing their leader had given me his storage, the other three followed without question.
"Thank You, the things you have given me generously will help me a lot in my practice," I said and left running on the air.
I am in quite a good mood as I run toward the boundary, these four storages must have quite a few good things even if it is not their real storage.
"Boss why did we give him our stuff, even if he has high-level Rule, your power is three stages higher than him, you could have been able to beat him," said his friend.
Slap!
"Idiot!" said leader as he slapped his friend.
"It was his mercy that he didn’t attack us, otherwise we wouldn’t have last a single move of his," said leader which shocked all of them.
Ever since their leader had comprehended the Rule, there was barely anyone is their leader match.
Their leader has fought many people with Rule, even those of 2nd level Rule and survived, so It is very hard for them to think that their leader wouldn’t last single move of that body.
"If I guessed right then The Rule he had comprehended is peak 2 nd level," leader said in a small in a whisper-like voice.
"But we still lost our storages boss." said the same boy who got slapped earlier.
Slap!
"Why are you crying for simple storage! You have not given him your real storage are you?" asked back the leader.
"No boss, it’s not my real storage but the storage I have him had that Robe," he replied in a small voice.
Hearing that leader didn’t say anything for a few seconds, "Well, that robe was simply mana guzzler and did not provide that good defense but was able to empty my mana within half an hour." Said leader shudderingly.
"Let’s not waste any time here, we should quickly find new prey to gain what we have lost while ago."
Region 8, I thought as I stepped through the boundary, after coming across the first group of bandits I came across other two.
One was good-natured as the one I had encountered but the other one vicious which excluded heavy killing intent toward me.
I did not waste my time with them after they asked me for my stuff, they all been killed and turned to ashes.
I really didn’t want to kill them but sensing such killing intent, I had to kill them thinking to produce such killing intent they must have killed a lot of people.
After knowing my location, I move toward the boundary, I hope to reach Region 7 before my time of sleeping.
With Air walking skill my speed is pretty fast, the only things which create an action in my way are either monsters and bandits.
I have to say there are worsening 8 than Region 9, I had already come across five bandits before I crossed the half distance and I am sure I will come across more of them as I reached closer to the boundary.
That held absolutely true, as I reached closer to the boundary I came across more bandits teams.
The banditry had increased tens of times more than that is three weeks ago and the on is quite simple.
Millions of people from westblood had entered the Awakening ground and each of every one of them had brought something precious from there.
So, if wantwantsbecome is very rich then he just has to rob ten some people and doing that he will have enough wealth to support his practice for a few years, not to mention the totem artifacts and other precious things he will get from robbing people.
As get closer to the boundary, I have come across many bandits some of them were good while some were bad.
All the bad ones I’ve come across been killed by me.
I first didn’t notice a thing but as I kept killing more, I started to gain a small understanding about Rule of Killing and that horrified me and it took me a while to calm down, and think rationally.
From the memories, I knew that killing is one of the ways to advance understanding in Rule of Killing, there are other ways but killing is one of the best but I also know that if one uses only killing way to gain comprehend Rule of Killing, then he would get stumped at one point and will not be able to advance his understanding.
So, when I am done experiencing the memories, I have already decided the way I am going to comprehend the Rule of killing.
Killing would be used to comprehend Rule of killing in my way but it’s going to be minimum and I had already sworn I will never kill to comprehend Rule of Killing and only kill those who wished to kill me.
Time passed by I soon crossed the boundary of Region 8 and entered Region 7, the first thing I felt on me is rain which happens fall year long in on 7.
Seeing I had now entered Region 7, I started to find a good place to set up a camp.
It had been more than ten hours since I had left the ground, all the fighting and traveling of these few hours have made me really tired.
Of all the 9 regions, It is Region 7 were finding the spot for camp is really hard as it is wet and damp all year long.
I was a good thing that I had Knight level camp which had no problem with any kind of terrain, as long as there ground.
