Chapter 2 the entry capital

    *akumo hides away from all the people as he leans on a wall and breathes heavily*


    Akumo: phew! If I had stuck around I would had probably been exiled or something, why cant they just appreciate what I’m trying to do?!


    *akumo spots a board filled with paper*


    Akumo: what’s this?


    *the paper reads, major help needed. The north district academy is in dire need of rescuing, a tyrant and his group has taking over the school and is in need of mages who are capable of the job*


    Akumo: well, I’m technically a mage! So, it should count but what’s the reward looking like?


    *Akumo is in shock to see the reward*


    Akumo: what?! 10.000 dollars?!! Mom would be so happy if I came home with this amount of cash!!


    *akumo clashes his fist*


    Akumo: alright! Let’s save this school and beat this tyrant!!


    *akumo runs off as he drops the paper, the paper falls and flips on its back reading “caution, hostages are being held and will kill if not careful, seek a party of b rank mages or above to be official assigned for the quest, later akumo spots a platform*


    Akumo: ah! There it is!!


    Man: hold it!


    Akumo: what’s the deal old g?


    Man: you have to pay and wait in line like the rest of these people, no cutting!


    Akumo: ah what? Then how much is it?


    Man: 70 dollars


    *Akumo is perplexed*


    Akumo: I… don’t have that kind of money…


    Man: then scram!!


    *Akumo walks away*


    Akumo: you suck…


    *Akumo walks around to see the villagers scrolling on a pad of locations on where they want to go*


    Akumo: if the school is called north district academy, then that must mean that it is in the capital! All I have to do is see which of these people are going there


    *Akumo watches from afar as he sees someone scroll through a tablet on a alter and click as a beam of light shines on them and vanishes. Akumo see’s this opportunity and pushes the next man in line as he scrolls through the tablet*


    Akumo: sorry! I have a school to save!


    Girl: WAIT!!!!


    *Akumo finds the north district capital and clicks as the teleporter prepare itself. However a sudden angry yell from a familiar girl calls out to akumo telling him to wait*


    Akumo: sorry! I have a school to save!!


    *Akumo teleports and appears within the north district capital, he is amazed to see high buildings surrounding him and from afar a large castle in the center of it all*


    Akumo: so, this is how the capital is like? Is amazing!! I’ve never seen such big buildings before! Oh! The school, I have to ask for directions


    *Akumo grabs his flip phone and takes pictures while the locals give a look of distrust towards him*The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.


    Akumo: oh! Right, I have to ask around for that school


    Man: a peasant is here?


    *Whispers are heard from all around as akumo gives a look of awkwardness*


    Man: what is a peasant doing in our holy land?!


    *Akumo looks around to know who said that and points at himself as a sophisticated man walks up*


    Farquad: I am farquad grandeal!


    *akumo snorts*


    Akumo: farquad? Ok, do you know where the school that is being attacked is?


    Farquad: the school? You mean the glorious north district academy?!


    Akumo: oh yeah that’s what it called! I need to know where it so I can beat the tyrant up and get the reward—I meant save the school


    Farquad: ha! What kind of peasant do you think you are?! You are not capable of such task, I doubt you even have the magic power to even get past a measly monster


    Akumo: you wanna bet?


    Farquad: you dare challenge a royal? Ha!


    *farquad removes his gloves and throws it at akumo, hitting his face*


    Akumo: I think you dropped something, here ill pick it up for you—


    Farquad: no, you fool! That is how duels are initiated, I throw a peace of clothing at you and if you accept you throw one at me then we start our battle


    Akumo: ok…


    *akumo looks around his body and removes his sandal and throw it at the royal boy which hit his head*


    Farquad: ow! That hurt!!


    Akumo: sorry!


    Farquad: mocking me?! You little—animal magic! Freedom’s wing!


    *a eagle formed from magic appear and flies at akumo, akumo ready’s his fist as he shoots lightning which overpowers the eagle and hits the boy causing an explosion*


    Akumo: oh, I win! Now can anyone tell me where the academy is?


    *akumo wonders through the busy street of the capital as he is amazed to see everything*


    Akumo: this place is awesome!! How have I never come here before?!


    *akumo continues his walk as he sees two figure in a alley*


    Akumo: they even have mugging!


    Girl: help!


    Man: shut it!


    *akumo peeks back as a mugger tries to rob a girl*


    Man: just give me what I want kid! Lets not make this rough!


    Girl: please I need this to buy him what he needs! If I don’t come back with them he’s going to kill me!


    Man: I don’t give a fuck! Give me your damn money!


    *akumo grabs the mans arm*


    Akumo: hey!


    Man: huh? Who the hell are you?!


    Akumo: give him his money back you thief!


    *the mugger and girl are confused*


    Man: uh…what he said!!


    Girl: ah, wait he—uhh…


    *the girl begins to cry*


    Girl: he’s the one robbing me!!


    Akumo: oh! You’re the one then!


    *akumo spin kicks the man knocking him out*


    Akumo: sorry for the confusion! Well I’ll see you around!


    *the girl was confused but couldn’t help but question akumo’s actions*


    Girl: wait…why did you save me?!


    Akumo: why? Because I beat bad guys and as we speak im on my way to beat one up right now, you see he took over a school and im trying to get it back


    *The girl was shocked to hear the words from akumo as sweat drips down her face and her hands shaking*


    Girl: you’re…going after him? don’t please! For your own safety please don’t go!!


    Akumo: why not?!


    Girl: he’s a dangerous man! And not just that he has 4 others in his team his elites! If you go alone! You’ll surely die!


    Akumo: well, you ain’t gotta worry!


    *akumo points at himself and gives a look of purr confidence*


    Akumo: because once I take these guys down then everyone will know who I am!! Because that’s what a hero does!!


    *akumo walks away leaving the girl questioning who he is*


    Girl: (a hero? just who are you?)


    *meanwhile akumo stumbles upon the gates leading towards a metal bridge. He was stopped by guards with assault rifles guarding the gates with a fence and barricades*


    Akumo: hey I’m here to kick butt!


    Guard: where is the rest of your party?


    Akumo: they should be on their way…


    Guard: I need your id and emblem


    Akumo: well I haven’t applied for an id yet I’m not 18 and I don’t know what a emblem is


    Guards: so you’re not from the monster hunter force?


    Akumo: uhh no?


    Guard: you are legally not allowed to do this quest and since you’re not registered to the force I will have to ask you to leave


    Akumo: what?! But I’m here to help!!


    Guard: if you don’t leave the premises this instant then I will force you out and I will have you arrested


    *Akumo reluctantly walks away*


    Akumo: do really have to beat these guys up? No, I might get in trouble later, oh I know!


    *the guards talk to each other as akumo sneaks around on a makeshift bush, jumps over the container but falls face flat on the ground as he sneaks away*


    Akumo: haha!!


    *akumo makes it on the bridge and walks across*


    Akumo: so stupid! I don’t need a team! I can do this on my own!


    *akumo spots a buildings he leans to the edge of the bridge to get a closer look and with amazement to see the school campus on a island surrounded by the sea*


    Akumo: so that’s what the school looks like!! Its amazing! I should have my mom to apply me here!


    *akumo reaches towards the first gate but was met by 3 enemies*


    Boy 1: stop right there!!


    Akumo: hey are you here to help?!


    Boy2: what? No! We’re here to take out any intruder!


    Akumo: well, I guess I’m an intruder


    *They all attack at once but akumo effortlessly leaps back and dodges their attack*


    Akumo: close one…


    Boy 3: our boss doesn’t appreciate you mages trying to stop us!! So well give yo a fair warning and get out of here!!


    akumo: no way! I just snuck in here there’s no way I’m going to walk away!!


    Boy2: then that explains why you’re alone then?


    Boy 2: only idiots would risk their lives to fight all of us alone!


    Akumo: then I must be a big idiot then, because I’m here to take all of you down!
