YM778.TV Volume 6 - Ch 2.08
If at all possible, I should be the one to defeat all of these guys alone so that Roxanne and Sherry would not need to get themselves involved, and in order to achieve that lofty goal, I am going to have to rely on Durandals help. It has not failed me ever since the first time that I have gotten my hands on it, and it will definitely not do so right now.
All right, almost at the intersection, so it is about time to get this show on the road. I turned right and walked down the right corridor, the one where Roxanne did not detect any monsters or people, and walked down its isle for a short while
Are they still coming after us?
I asked Roxanne to check if we were still being followed as discreetly as possible, so she took a few quick whiffs with her sensible nose and then reported:
Yes, they have not given up and they and they are still following us while maintaining a safe distance away from us.
All right then, I think it is high time to give them a surprise that they are not going to forget very soon. You ready to do this, Roxanne, Sherry?
Ready as I can be.
Definitely ready.
Okay, so we will be turning around in three. Two.. one.. now!
On the mark that I gave them without any prior warnings, we turned around and saw that in total, there was four people who were tailing us: three Bandits and one Explorer, appearing on the other side of the cave. The person with the highest level there was a Bandit Lv.40, while the other two Bandits were such a weak scrubs that their levels were barely above Lv.10, while the Explorer was even better than them, having his own Level at Lv.25. Luckilyfor them, none of the four had a single digit level or just Lv.10, but that just begs a question in my mind: if we assume that these above Lv.10 Bandits and Lv.25 Explorer are the norm when it comes to levels and acquiring them, then what did that one other Bandit had to do that he was already Lv.40, which is the equivalent of a mid game player in a typical RPG game. Not to mention that this Guys level, Lv.40, is actually higher than the level of all the Jobs that I currently possess. Normally this would have meant that I am inferior to that guy, but we have to remember that unlike him, who only had that one Bandit Job at Lv.40, I have multiple Jobs available to me.
So what if he has one Job that has higher level than all of mine?! If he has only one Job, then he also has bonuses o the stats and Skills from just this one Job, whereas I have six of my Jobs with their stat bonuses and Skills, so while I may not beat this guy with the quality of my Jobs, I sure have him beaten when it comes to quantity of them, and when we couple that up with the fact that I definitely have a much better weapon than this guy, then I am fairly certain that I am going go be able to beat him up in a fight.
Hey, hey, hey! What the fuck is this now?! I though you said that these lil shits have no idea that we are following them and that the job was going to be quick and easy, so why the fuck this they notice us and came back from where they were going?!
Because I was certain that was going to be the case, so fuck off!
Oi! Stop yapping that traps of yours and take up your fucking arms already! Get in line, on the double, you dimwits!
Y-Yes sir!
Four people get ready for battle after receiving order that the Bandit Lv.40 barked at them.The formation that they have assumed is such that the Bandit Lv.40 was at the backline, and the other two Bandits and an Explorer were lined up in front of him in a kind of a protective human wall. I guess that is all the evidence that I need to know that that this guy must be their leader, which should be the perfectly logical conclusion here since there is no way that the Bandits with low levels would be able to command the kind of authority and respect high enough for them to ensure that the guy that was almost twice their level would listen to them.
You know the drill boys! Kill the guy, but whatever you do, do not kill these fine lassies! I am sure that we are going to be able to sell them for a really good price. after we are going to have our fun with them of course, muahahahaha!!!!
Hell yeah! I am so looking forward to this! Dibs on the one with huge knockers!
Forget it! I saw her first, so get in line!
Get in line yourself, moron! You can have that little runt instead, she is going to be a much better fit for your tiny..
That unpleasant conversation of theirs was making me feel sick in my stomach, but I cannot allow their words to provoke me into losing my cool. They are only talking like that because they think that we are going to be an easy target that is not going to put up any kind of fight at all, but if that is what they are thinking, then they are in for the rudest awakening of their lives. Go on, think that you are in a much better position than us because your boss is Lv.40, but in a moment, it is not going to be any good for you.
That being said, if the leader of these guys managed to attain Lv.40, then it probably means that he is experienced at going to the Labyrinths and killing the monsters inside of it. Or that he killed so many people. Either way, he is the one that we are going to have to be extremely cautious of, but the other three should be much easier to defeat.
Oh, guys, wait, how about I try a little bit of something first? Hey kid! If you have any money in your Item Box, then take it out and give it all to us! If you do then maybe, just maybe we are going to let you live! But only if you beg us nicely enough!
The Explorer from the Bandit group says something outrageous, but I simply ignored what he was saying, using the time that his little diharrea of the mouth gave me to select a particular Bonus Spell that I was going to use to make an example out of this guy, just to show the other three Bandits that we are not to be fucked with.
Oh, you want to know which Bonus Spell I have selected? All right, I will tell you. The Bonus Spell that I have chosen. is Equivalent Exchange.
That is right, Equivalent Exchange. So I think that you all know what is going to happen to that Explorer guy real soon, right?
