Tomas was one of the strongest hunters in the town for a reason, this kind of move would not work against him. He drew his sword and clashed against the incoming battle-ax.
Dang!
While he managed to block the battle-ax and saved his life, the force behind the battle-ax was not a joke. It sent the man flung backward and crashed into Biaska Inn. The four people next to Mayor Tomas were caught off guard. Instead of attacking Tang Shaoyang, they retreated into Biaska Inn, checking Mayor Tomas' condition.
Mayor Tomas stood up from the debris and looked at Tang Shaoyang with fury. His right hand was shaking from receiving the strike. He was still in a state of shock that the man was so strong, 'But I have the number, we can take him down, five against one!'
However, the Mayor overlooked the female knight. Ashley made her way toward Tang Shaoyang as her frost aura froze the guard that tried to fight her. She then stood next to Tang Shaoyang and let out a sigh, "Look at what you have done, you created chaos. The Malone Family will detect this quickly. You are blowing our cover!" The girl was grumbling.
"Then what? Should I let him sell you to the brothel?" Tang Shaoyang rolled his eyes at the girl, "And if you are afraid of getting known by the Malone Family, we just need to make sure that they don't know that we are here. For example, we can silence all people and raze the town."
Without a doubt, the method would work. But that was just sarcasm from Tang Shaoyang, he did not plan to slaughter the innocent. He was still far from being a mass murderer.
"Hah, whatever. Let's end the chaos quickly!" Ashley held her sword up, "Frost Sword Technique: Third Frost Sword, Freezing Blade!" The frost aura burst out from the sword as she slashed the sword toward the direction of Mayor Tomas and his bodyguards.
Whoosh!
The frost aura shot up toward Tomas Conn as his bodyguards, freezing everyone who was on the path. When the frost blade was five meters away from Tomas Conn, an old man's voice rang, "Hah… I don't want to get involved with this thing, but if I don't interfere, my inn will be destroyed." An old man with white hair and beard appeared in front of the Biaska Inn. The old man waved his hand and a shield made of mana covered the whole inn.
The frost blade froze the mana shield and ice covered the whole building. The sudden phenomenon caused the chaos to a halt. Everyone was looking at the building and then they looked toward the one who caused the building to freeze.
Meanwhile, Ashley ignored those stares as she creased her foreheads, "An Epic!" She muttered as she recalled what the old man did just now. She was pretty sure that the old man was an Epic or else he could not block her freezing blade that easily.
Tang Shaoyang's eyes shone brightly when he heard there was an Epic in the inn, "A hidden Epic is finally showing up!? You can take care of Tomas and his friends, I will face the Epic!" He then approached the freezing mana shield with the battle-ax. He was about to break the freezing shield until it crumbled by itself. The ice fell apart and showed the Biaska Inn.
"Calm down, young man! I am too old to join the fight with the young. You want these guys, right? Here, I give them to you," The old man threw five unconscious men in front of Tang Shaoyang. The five men were Tomas and his friends.
Tang Shaoyang was surprised as he looked at the five people in front of his feet and looked back at the old man. There was a burning desire in his eyes to fight the old man.
"Hah…" The old man released a sigh, "Probably I should not go out," he could tell that by looking at Tang Shaoyang that the man was to fight him even more. This was not solving the problem to cease the fight.
"How suspicious, why would you give him to me instead of helping him? He is the Mayor of Biaska Town and one of your people," Tang Shaoyang squinted his eyes as he started to look for a reason to fight the old man. He wanted to try it out, his limit. The Epic Beastment with level 800ish could not test him to the limit. It was barely a fight since five Dark Vultures failed to force him to use [Epic Integration]. Maybe an Epic could give him some challenges.
"Simple, I just want to solve the issue quickly and minimize the damage to the town. From my vision, it would be easier for me to knock these five out than knocking you out," The old man answered with a smile. Fine reasoning in Tang Shaoyang's ears, meaning the old man acknowledged his strength.
"Moreover, we don't want to get involved with the knight of the kingdom. I just want the peace back," The old man glanced at Ashley. He recognized Ashley as one of the knights of the kingdom, "I don't care what you want to do in the Gigante Forest. You can do what you want to do, and I want my peaceful town back. That's it."
"Oh, so it was a peaceful town despite many hunters suffering under Mayor Tomas' tyranny?" Tang Shaoyang grinned at the old man, "Where were you when they suffered?"
Ashley was about to take over the talk when a hand pulled her over. She looked back and noticed it was Selena who pulled her, "What are you doing? We have to stop him from fighting the old man. The old man was an Epic and he might be part of the Revolution Army," Ashley whispered forcefully.
"That's why we have to stop him from informing the Revolution Army. If the Malone Family is part of the Revolution Army, they should already know where we are about. Capturing the old man for more information might also be a good choice as well," Selena replied seriously, "And don't ever think about stopping him. He knows what he should do, Ashley!"
The old man realized that Tang Shaoyang tried to rally the hunters against him. From the look of the situation, his instigation was working as the hunters looked at him with the wrong look. If someone as strong as him existed in the city, why did he let Tomas govern the city? The old man could see the dissatisfaction from the hunters.
"We are too old to meddle with the affair, and it was not me who they wronged, but you. Why don't you unite and fight together? Why do you have to wait until now? That's your choice for not fighting back the previous Mayor, not our fault. We just want a peaceful retirement in the remote town, not babysitting you!" The old man replied. His voice was loud enough for everyone to hear.
"Just like your choice to not fight injustice for yourself, our choice is to enjoy our retirement and don't want to be disturbed!" The old man changed the subject to "we" and "our", telling the people and Tang Shaoyang that he was not alone. That meant there was more than one Epic in the town.
Tang Shaoyang thought about it and found that the old man's reasoning was reasonable. It was these hunters' fault for not daring to stand up and accepting of being bullied by their superiors.
"So you don't really want to fight? What about loosening your stiff bone?" Tang Shaoyang winked his eyes at the old man, but he was being ignored by the old man.
The old man then pointed his index finger at Tang Shaoyang, "But this man is true, we should stand for you guys if we want to spend our time peacefully in the town. Be easy, we will discuss the town's management and we will be appointing and overseeing the new Mayor. As for Tomas Conn's wealth, we will share that with the hunters in the town. Please register your name to my employees, we will date the people and share the wealth equally."
The old man's decision led out to cheers from the surviving hunters and the city guards. No one was going to oppose the Epic who would protect their town from the danger. No one was stupid enough to do that.
"What about Tomas? He deserved the death penalty!" The old man waved his hand toward the unconscious Tomas. A mana blade formed from his hand and accelerated toward Tomas's neck. He was going to kill Tomas, but Tang Shaoyang appeared in front of the unconscious Tomas and blocked the mana blade with his battle-ax. The mana blade dispersed as he blocked the blade.
"What is the meaning of this?" The old man immediately questioned Tang Shaoyang.
"I am sorry, Old Man. But these guys are my prey," Tang Shaoyang turned around and called, "Little glutton, come over!"
Whoosh!
A black cat appeared next to his feet and meowed at him. Tang Shaoyang waved his hand, "You can have them!" He wanted to level up the Dark Predator, "Do you want to kill them as well?" He asked Selena. Selena was barely level 200ish, she could gain a lot of levels by killing one of them.
"Nope, I am fine with this. I am just going to level up with my heal and if it's a beast, you can let me kill them later!" Selena shook her head. The thought of killing people to level up was taboo. At least she grew up in that kind of environment that caused the refusal.
"Alright, if you don't want to fight then let's talk old man!" Tang Shaoyang was not going to force her to do something she did not want to. He then turned around to the old man and squinted his eyes.
The old man looked at the black cat. The black cat walked to defenseless Tomas and pawed the forehead. Blood started coming after the cat's paw hit the forehead. The profuse bleeding, leading to the Mayor of the town's death. The black cat then walked toward the other unconscious man and did the same.
The Adolescent Dark Predator repeated the same action and killed the five defenseless people. After it killed the fifth man, it flopped to the side and fell asleep. The old man could hear the light snore from the black cat. He was aware that the Dark Predator was undergoing an evolution.
Only then the old man looked toward Tang Shaoyang, "Alright then, please follow me, young man." The old man turned around and entered the inn. Tang Shaoyang picked up the black cat and called Aki to follow him.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
