Chapter 48: Chaos
Bonk!
The guy was flying in the air for a moment before crashing into someone.
Bam.
"What happened?!"
"Huh?"
Most of them were bewildered, not knowing what had happened. On the other hand, those who were around Albert knew he did this while being intoxicated.
Albert had powerful strength, so it would mean that stopping him would be hard if he started rampaging.
Unfortunately for them, their worst fear came as Albert raised his Bonk Bat while shouting with a shaking voice. "You all… are horny bastards! I'm going to bonk you all!"
"Not good. Albert is down!"
"We need to stop him!"
"Careful with his strength!"
Albert saw a few people coming at him, so he looked left and right before hitting them with his Bonk Bat.
Bonk!
Bonk!
Bonk!
He blew away several of them as he kept getting notification that the bonk had completed.
More and more people started realizing what was happening.
"Oi! Are you alright?!" Some of them were trying to check on their injuries.
But to their surprise, all those who got bonked touched their back instead of the area where Albert hit them. "Ouch!"
"You're touching the wrong spot!" All of them were perplexed by their actions.
They soon realized they didn't feel any pain from the spot he hit them. "Eh? It didn't hurt?"
"I was blown away, but it didn't hurt?"
They were wondering what happened while some of them began to shout.
"We need to stop Albert before anyone gets injured!"
"But we didn't experience any pain after getting hit?"
"Still, we need to stop him! We can't have him like this. Who knows what he will do later!"
The adventurers realized that Albert might move toward other people, so they thought they indeed needed to subdue Albert.
"Alright. Let's go!"
"We need to stop him!"
"Make sure you don't injure him!"
The adventurers charged at him.
Albert kept swinging his bat in all directions, preventing anyone from getting close. Those who got hit were launched into the air like the others.
Bonk!
Bonk!
Bonk!
The bonk still continued as no one managed to get close to him. They didn't have any weapons, so the moment the bat touched their skin, they would be blown away.
In fact, Albert started moving around, scaring them.
"Albert! Stop!" Eventually, Aran came to him with his spear. He stopped Albert's Bonk Bat with his spear, but the Bonk Bat generated enough force to push him back like how he overpowered Alisa.
"Kh!" Aran gritted his teeth, feeling the power.
"Even Aran couldn't stop him…"
"We need to surround him."
"Someone needs to use a rope to tie him from afar!"
"That's right. We need a rope to stop him!"
"I will stall him here. You guys start searching for any tools that can stop him!" Aran shouted, arranging the people.
Albert hurriedly struck Aran again while laughing like a crazy person. "Hehehe! Horny Bastards! I'm going to purify all of you!"
Aran was pushed back again while Albert suddenly turned around, running away from Aran.
He was sad with the fact he could only bonk around thirty to forty people before Aran stopped him, but he still needed to take advantage of this opportunity to the fullest.
He chased other adventurers while running around like a goblin, throwing the plaza into chaos.
"Stop him!"
"Run!"
The adventurers were split into two: those who didn't want to be hit and those who wanted to stop Albert.
The town became lively all of a sudden.
After bonking more than sixty people, they soon realized that Albert couldn't launch the people who he had hit once.
Knowing that there was a way to stop him, the adventurers surrounded him.
Albert obviously didn't want to stop and started moving around the town. With the commotion brought by the adventurers, those who were staying inside their houses ended up coming out to see what happened.
Without hesitation, he bonked all of them in the name of purification.
He continued to do it for another thirty minutes before he was apprehended by the adventurers.
In that instant, Albert pretended to be knocked out from the drink.
After a few discussions with Aran, they ended up letting Albert stay in the inn.
They all knew that no matter what, they shouldn't give Albert alcohol.
Although no one was hurt, the party had truly gone wrong. The wine was scattered everywhere.
However, the adventurers seemed to continue their party as if nothing had happened. In fact, they continued discussing Albert, from his behavior to his achievement.
The party continued until morning while Albert was lying down on his bed to get some sleep. There was a smile on his face as he entered his dream.
…
The next day, Albert, Aran, Fila, and a few other adventurers were standing in front of the town.
Albert put on an innocent face as he asked, "I wonder what happened yesterday? My head hurts…"
Aran and the others flinched as Aran hurriedly replied, "Nothing happened. It was the side effect of drinking. You shouldn't drink too much… In fact, I believe you shouldn't drink. It's bad for your health."
Normally, he would snap and rebuke him, but Albert still needed to put on a happy face and nodded a few times. "I see. I will try my best not to drink. I need to take care of myself."
There was a sense of relief in everyone's heart as if they had just stopped Albert from creating another disaster.
Fila came to him and handed him two pouches. "Take these with you. There are ten silver coins in the right pouch and a hundred copper coins on the other. This should be able to solve your money problem.
"I heard that you can read a map, so I won't tell you anything else about where to go. Just make sure you consider your water and food supply."
"Thank you, Fila." Albert nodded and put the pouches in his bag.
"Good!" Fila smiled and stepped back.
Aran then extended his hand and shook Albert's hand. "See you, Albert. I wish you a safe journey."
"Thank you." Albert smiled and finally started walking away from the town. He kept looking at them while waving his hands as the others did the same until he was gone.
As soon as he couldn't see them anymore, a grin appeared on Albert's face as he looked at the mission.
