Chapter 139: [Guarded by the Ghosts!]
"I will go first! Nobody will interfere!" Shouted one of the men, the strongest one among them, as he ran towards Quientellia with his greatsword.
-Whoosh!
A single step and he reached closer to her before he swung his sword at her.
-Clank!
Though, parrying it, Quintellia went for a counter. Still, the attack was stopped with a transparent shield before it could pierce that man's stomach.
That man smiled evilly, as he then tried to grab Quientllia with his other hand. Barely dodging his grip, Quientellia took a few steps back, while her eyes observed that man with a narrowed gaze.
-Whoosh!
-Whoosh!
Favius and Re, both went in for a fight at that man as well. Using their enhancement skills, they tried attacking that man, who easily blocked their attacks before hitting each of them to the ground.
They were still resilient, so they created some distance before preparing for another combo attack. Though looking at the calm expression of that man, I sighed. It was evident that he was much more skilled than the three of them combined. And especially with his [Gift: Guarded by the Ghosts!] that protected him from all attacks from people who had a lower vitality than him, was basically a cheat in this case.
"Ooh! The Boss is really on it this time!"
"Tsk! I wanted to have fun too!"
"Go get em boss!"
"So unfair!"
Those men spoke out their thoughts as they looked at that man fight without any difficulty.
"DIE!!!!" And finally, the young kid with the least firepower here, ran towards that man, shouting with all his might as he tried to stab that man from behind. Though just like usual, a shield appeared, protecting that man from the kid's attack.
"Huh?" That man, a bit irritated by the kid, looked at him with a slight glare before speaking," what is a wimp like you doing here?" Find more chapters on empire
He then picked up the kid by his neck.
"Aman!" Quientellia shouted as she went in for an attack
"NO!!!" Re also shouted with hatred in her eyes.
"YOU BASTARD! LET HIM GO!" Favius attacked with all his might as well.
-Thud! Thud!
-Clank!
Though all attacks were easily blocked by that shield. There was nothing that the party could do. They increased their attack even more, though nothing happened as the attacks were simply stopped by the shield. A cheat indeed.
"Is this wimp important to you?" That man asked with a sudden mischievous smile on his face before he added," if you strip… I might let him go."
"Kill…. Me…." The young boy, Aman, spoke with all his might, while the girls seemed rather hopeless in this situation. Favius kept going on and on with his attack but nothing happened as the shields simply blocked everything.
One of the girls, Rika, the archer who was silent the whole time, finally spoke," I will strip! I will do anything you want! Just let them go! Just let the others go! I will do anything you guys want!"
She cried as she let the bow go. And slowly moved her hands towards her back as she was about to remove her clothing. Though before she could even reach, that man spoke with a bored expression,
"You aren't worth it. You are an average fire elf, right? That's pretty boring. I had many of you before… You are boring. I want to have fun with this chimera and this special half elf… I had never seen anything like them before. I can bet you a 100 Cilia Gold that they are way better than those prostitutes from the royal kingdom. Man… I am getting horny just by thinking about it."
Rika had a blank expression, almost lifeless as she looked at that man still holding Aman's neck. For some reason or another, the other men haven't made a move even now.
Was it out of respect? Doubt it. It's more like fear at work here.
"You! I BEG YOU! HELP US OUT! I WILL DO ANYTHING YOU WANT! PLEASE! I KNOW YOU CAN SEE ME! I BEG YOU! PLEASE HELP ME! I BEG YOU! YOU HAVE HELPED ME BEFORE! PLEASE… PLEASE…."
And then Queintellia shouted with all her might as she looked up at the sky. This confused everyone but me, as I know that she was calling out for [???], that is me. I kind of wanted to help her out as the 'Seer' but with this, I have to choose between this and that.
Well. Other than to improve my [Gift], I was here to help her grow, so I think it would be better to give her a skill that she could use right now.
Looking at her, I took a quick glance at her [Gift].
[Gift: Silver (Growth)
Grade: Mortal Grade - 10
Experience required to increase the Grade of the gift: Touch 2 different types of Silver ore!
Effects: Increased the effect of all Silver related items and skills by 100%!]
And then pondering about the best way to help her out, I thought for a few seconds before creating something that she can use. Not a skill but an item.
[Armor: Silver Coat!
Grade: A
Status: Bound to Quientellia Norga Amea 13
Effects:
+250 Vitality
+20% Health Regeneration

Durability: 500,000/500,000
Note: You don't really need to beg for these things. Just get stronger and we can call it even.]
[Would you like to create this Item for 223 Million GM Points?]
Even though I said that I won't take anymore GM points to create things, I think it's fine to do here. With most of the enemies being A-Grade and above in thos world, I think it would be pretty easy to get it all back fast.
'With this, she should be able to break through the vitality barrier,' I thought as I pressed [Send], before the armor, in the shape of a silver coat, fit her body smoothly.
'Now then. Show me what you are really capable of.'
