Chapter 9: " Thief?"
"Thief" You will pay for calling me that…
Elician's nice looking face died as soon as he saw the harlot leaving the crowd.No one was going to be there for him now.Only she could tell them the truth about everything that happened.The cluster of aggressors were increasing as they approached the alley.
Looking at them, his fingers tightened into fist. His knuckles hardened as if he was about to do Kung Fu battle.He stretched forth making all his muscles rest in the right places.He didn't have time to spare.He had been gentle all this time just for them to at least have sympathy for him but no. They were all naive.They didn't even consider Elician was a child.They didn't care about the results of their actions, all they could think of was to punish the naughty boy.
" Look at the bag he is holding.He is a Thief." Someone yelled.
Hearing this his eyes turned into fury.He had been accused once again for something he didn't do.The very thing he hated his whole life.He would allow himself to be punished but not for something he didn't do.
Never.
All his existence, people have been blaming him for their troubles. He was supposed to be cared for and loved.But...none of them do.Except his mother.He had always feared losing her because there would be no one left to care for him if she passed away.
**
Everyone closer to the alley were all shouting "Thief" and many other evil things one could do.
"Bad boy"
"Evil child."
They were all running to the crowded area.
Elician's entire existence he would do bad, evil, devilish things but stealing was something he'd dare not to do." You are calling me a Thief now..I am not a Thief, That girl is the one not me.She tried to trick me" He yelled but the noise blended with his words.
A man from nowhere made the first strike.It was a five inches long metal and it weighs 12kg.The metal thrust through the air coming right at him. Elician stood there like a good boy. Totally ignoring the metal as it slammed against his back.Everyone became bewildered.They had seen that huge metal while it stroke the boy.They were expecting the boy to drop dead or at least crush the ground with all his spine bones shattered.But it was not what they wanted to see today.
"Miracle"
"Is he even a human?"
" The child is a wizard"
"No . He is a viking."
They uttered in shock.Elician looked at him with divine hatred." Sinner, you tried to hurt me.!" The man heard those words right before he felt something long and hard thrust through his ribs.It was Elician's fingers.He instantly dropped on the ground like a tree.
" One down.Many to go."Elician aimed at his next target.It was the guy with a cutlass.Its size was massive purposely meant for butchering of meat.He had decided to chope some hands off the boy.The moment he got close,He swung the blade directly towards his left arm and as it neared him,He adjusted his body to the left making the sword cut nothing but thin air.
The guy two feet away from Elician gulped in shock.If he had been just a little closer,his head would have been flying around by now.
Using a swift movement,he sent a fierce punch right at him. His knuckles landed at nothing but his forehead.
Bang..
He instantly felt dizzy as he fell on the ground like a good boy.
"Two," he shouted.
Now they were left with 7 men and countless other women.Elician quickly dashed through the small gap between the people. He wanted to knock them out one by one with ease.That way they couldn't get him surrounded.
They moment he got out of the circle,An idea flashed his brain.He was going to run faster than he had ever moved and leave the place without any further damages.Just as he began sprinting,he felt empty.His hands.
It was no longer holding the bag.It might have fallen when he made the previous attacks.
He turned his head only to see a man holding the bag with a happy smile on his face running from the battlefield" Urh. I will punish that creature." .
***
Far away from the battlefield,70 meters away, Someone or something was standing there watching all the fun stuff that was going on so far.She swayed her head in a seductive way making the red colored hair sprout in the air.
A smirk drew on her tiny lips which soon changed into a very seductive smile."That's my Morning star"With that,her hair flew in the wind as her body blended with the air.
****
Elician wanted to burn them all and ripe their flesh into pieces.Just as he tried to fry them with a thought,He received vibes.
*He saw seven innocent children crying endlessly at their parents.He could feel the pain of them and something else...guilt.* The moment he finished seeing the vision,his heart froze and his eyes became wet.He quickly wipes it off with the black clothes he was wearing." Now where did that come from? I can't be responsible for their cries." He once gazed at them." All these stupid people are parents.For the children's sake I am soo not gonna kill them.I will just leave before they recognize me."
He tried to leave the alley with his fast footsteps and just as he made the first two steps,he got a brilliant idea." Wait,If I can't kill them,why don't I teach them a small lesson.Wait a second," His gaze landed on a bag running endlessly from the battlefield."You!"
Elician used all the energy left in his body to move as fast as he could go towards that man.The people also followed.They were not done with Elician yet.Most of them were holding tree branches and bats.
The 15 meters long distance between the two turned to mere centimeters.The moment he neared him, he stuck his two legs making him fly in the air as he bounced off in the pile of sand.
The bag was sent a few meters away from him.
"Ahh," He started crawling his way towards the bag." You thief you stole it…form.." Before he finished his statement,a kick landed at his face.At that instant his hands crossed paths.His face ached with burning sensation as he fell face first on the ground.
********
" Look he had killed the man." They growled angrily as they moved in their numbers for the killer.
Elician on the other side of the story was tired.He had been meaning to use less energy to fight back against his enemies but things didn't work out that way.On top of that,He had burned up all his strength by just chasing that trash that tried to ran with his money.
The aggressors were increasing in their numbers.There no hopes of winning this time.
Without any further thoughts he did the one thing he had been trying to do all these hours.
" 🔥Nitrobacter_ Rixoboum🔥" everything became slow instantly.An unknown source of light brighten everything making all the aggressors freeze in their numbers.They could not see or do anything.A strong rays of light brighter than the sun blind folded them all.
Elician felt elated for discovering his new powers.He easily passed through them as they stood there like statues.He could hear them making noises but they couldn't see him all hear him as he passed right behind them.
****
Lucifer sighed in relief the moment he made it through the door of the tiny building.Mom was not yet home which was a good News for him.He ransacked the house until finally he discovered a nice new place to hide his bag.
******
Back at the alley,the people that were chasing him all recovered from their dreams.They could not even remember how they got there in the first place.They all marched their bodies to their houses feeling worn and weaker.
******
*"Did you see how he used the spell you taught him …to evade the crowd?"
" It was quite impressive. I think he is getting stronger than you."
" What? we will see about that."
