Purity Online - The World For The Fallens
Day 2: Minotaur Attack (Part 3)
"Hey, you, right, won. So, I have to give you a gift" Otomura said as he and Ryugai traversed the crowded and boisterous road of the crowd. The two of them had just left the United Building and were on their way home.
"Hm? A present?" Ryugai turned towards Otomura. At the same time, a horse carriage flashed to his left, making his voice faint.
"Of course" Otomura said with a friendly smile and took out a few gold coins from the bag of money he was holding. The result of the exchange of their hunting results in the United Building.
"No need. I'm not interested in money" Ryugai said, shaking his head.
"Hey, hey. Don't so. The hunt this time can produce a lot of meat because of you too," said Otomura. "Don't be shy."
"No way" Ryugai said. "In exchange ...."
"Hm?" Otomura brought his ears closer to Ryugai's mouth so that the young man's words could be heard more clearly and not disturbed by the boisterous voices of the crowd of villagers.
"Give me the whole portion of your dinner."
"EEEEEEHH?! Instead of starving or eating bland food, mending me love all these gold coins!!"
Ryugai smiles for the first time in this world of Purity Online. "Joking, really."
"Ah, you smile! This is your first smile" Otomura said cheerfully. "I thought you were a cold person, but it turns out you can joke around and smile too, huh?!"
"Shut up, ah." Ryugai instantly extinguished that smile from his face and turned his body away.
"Cieee~~ shy .... Don't be so stupid inside."
"Whisper, do you want me to kill you?!"
"Kill, I'll beat you every night."
"Yes, it's up to you."
"Switch ...."
"What am I doing here?" inner Ryugai. "I should have killed them all immediately, then looted and burned this village, then escaped!!"
"But somehow there was an urge in my heart that asked me to undo that intention."
"Don't, Ryugai. Do not be bound by their hospitality. It's the only way to get justice .... To others, this looks cruel, but to me this power is the only way to uphold justice!!!"
"The only way that justice can be done for myself ..., is to establish it myself..., even if it means I have to borrow the power of the devil!!!"
"But I can't do it. Unlike the people on earth who are rotten, they are very good. Shit, what am I thinking? I should just kill them quickly!!! Why am I acting so pretentious like an angel?!"
"In addition, I had even forgotten when was the last time I smiled, but they could make me smile and joke back!! Who are they really?"
Ryugai held his forehead. His palms threw away the messy blue-colored bangs. He seemed to be thinking hard.
"What's up, Ryugai?" ask Otomura.
"Ah, there is nothing" Ryugai said as he removed his palm from his forehead.
"Good."
Right after that, suddenly a small magic circle in light blue with a crescent moon motif appeared in front of Otomura's chest. It is about the size of an adult human palm.
"Oh? What'sthat?" ask Ryugai.
"Magic communication" Ryugai explained before touching the magic circle. After he touched it, the face of a typical soldier-dressed man projected there.
"Hey, it seems that the others can too," Ryugai said as he spread his gaze around. It was seen that everyone on the street got a communication magic notification as well and was just about to touch it to find out the contents of the notification.
"Consider everything!!! The Minotaur is heading towards our village for the second time!!! Pack your things and evacuate!! The security forces could not hold them in any longer period of time!! Don't think you can hide in this village. The speed of motion, nocturnal vision, and power of the Minotaur was incredible!! Even the strongest warrior in this village had died in his hands just now!!! If you still love life, hurry up!!!”
Afterwards, the face of the warrior-tuned man instantly went out of everyone's magic circle. The people who received the communication magic notification instantly went wide, as did Otomura and Ryugai.
"My-Minotaur?!"
