Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 19: Out of city

After wandering around, Nix finally got near the city walls. The Tall walls covered the Borders of the city. He was in awe at how sky-high the city's wall is.

'To think they infiltrated into the city even with this high security.'

There were many soldiers on duty, and they were patrolling nonstop on all the streets and roads and the security was so tight that Nix had to travel cautiously as he could. He found a stone bench near the empty area he sat there to rest with a sigh.

'hah Now, where and how can I find Reegan in this Big city?'

He sat there with many thoughts running through his mind.

'hmm After leaving this city my first job will be eating cyclops eyes."

While he was in his thoughts. He strangely started to feel like he was being watched unexpectedly a hooded figure sat next to him on the stone bench. When Nix turned, he was surprised because the person who sat beside him was Reegan,

Reegan gave a little smirk and opened his mouth.

"Hello! Looks like someone's still alive,"

Nix frowned, "Yes But, How did you know that I will be here?"

"Hmm simple I just followed you in secret after you told me to leave and saw you getting dragged by that cutie and I Knew that you would survive so I just went here and there to search for some information about Ranrak and the neighborhood places to select where I should go. And I knew that you were Moneyless so you won't Travel by portal. Even If you try to."

With a smile, he added.

"You will be getting caught, so your only choice is to get away by the city gates which is yet quite a trouble and after connecting all those dots I came up with a conclusion that you will be around this vicinity."

"Hmmm"

"First take this" Reegan passed a square black crystal.

"What's This?"

"It's a voice transmitting crystal. To put it simply it is a mobile phone which is used for having end-to-end voice transmission which I stole from some random passerby."

"Okay"

"What? I expected some serious reaction buddy. like why did you stole it and are you crazy?"

"hahaha" Nix started laughing loudly.

"Yo, are you going crazy now? Get a grip Nix. Lower your voice people are searching for outlaws who survived that siege."

'Hmm, a crazy guy is calling me crazy now?'

Nix locked his eyes on Reegan's eyes and started speaking.

"In this world, if you have to survive you have to do some cheap shits and do some dirty tricks to overcome absurdity," Nix said with an evil smile on his face.

"yo cool down first. What the hell happened to you? You are turning more and more enraged after you got dragged into this world."

"Yes, I am turning more and more enraged because I didn't do anything wrong neither did I wanted to be here and suffer here. All I want is to go back and live a peaceful life that is all I want now."

"yo bud we can think about it later Now think about the current problem. First, what's your plan and how are you going to get out of the city?"

"I don't have a plan."

"Hmm I have a plan do you want to know how? First, let's go for a walk."

Nix and Reegan got up from the stone bench and started walking and stopped under a tree while gazing at the entrance gate.

The city guards were asking people for their IDs. An ID is a thing that is given to the people from the earth is called Outsider ID. People who got teleported from earth to empyrean are called outsiders.

They made an Outsider ID To identify them which contains basic information such as the year the person entered and from which city they are summoned from and their name and age. And after checking the IDs the Guards will scan the ID with some Magic Rays which will find if it is duplicate or original.

IDs are issued by temples of the gods as proof of their citizenship or to be identified as a faction of regulars. With the issued ID they can travel through all the cities without any trouble of getting checked by Guards. Those who don't have the ID will be checked to find out whether it is an outlaw or a Regular.

"So what's the plan?"

"We will break through the gate. I think with your strength you can barge out without having any trouble. They will most probably be in equal strength to a second-level player so what do you say?"

Nix spat on the floor and started speaking

"I thought you had some big plan to get out sneakily thinking that you will show some skill but you dumb ass! If you said that you didn't have any plan, I would have come up with one."

Reegan scratched his head.

"Hmm, so what's your plan?"

"Simple we will kill those soldiers and leave the city."

"What you said and I said are literally the same anyway."

"Hmm, What's up with you? Don't you have an ID issued ?"

"Actually yes, I got it yesterday but, It won't be any fun. If I go out just like that. I followed you because I wanted to have some thrill, remember?"

Nix snorted.

"well whatever"

Nix and Reegan walked towards the gate. Reegan was in front of the queue while Nix stood behind him.

"Sir you need to remove that hoody." The guard said while the other guard was simply standing opposite to him.

" " Reegan quietly removed the hood.

"Thank you For your cooperation sir Now I need to scan your ID sir."

"ID? Shit! I Don't have one sir gatekeeper!" Reegan mocked the guard.

The guard unsheathed his sword and pointed to his neck.

"Now Be quiet and cooperate with him" The guard pointed to the one at the opposite.

" " Reegan walked towards him and raised his hands like he was cooperating with him.

First, the guard checked his back for the tattoo.

"Oh, I forgot! Is this what you are asking for?"Reegan took His Id and showed it.

The guards sighed. Suddenly a kick fell on one guard's face.

"kueek"

While one guard grunted in pain the other guard changed his focus rather than checking Reegan and found Nix who attacked the guard before he could unsheath his sword a punch came towards the guard's face and the Guard became a little dizzy. Reegan used that Chance to grab the guard's Sword.

"Nix here take this!" With a shout Reegan threw the sword he stole from the guard to Nix.

Nix grabbed the sword and inserted his magic power into the sword and quickly attacked the Guard and turned and stabbed the other guard and started to run out of the gate. Nix Killed two guards in mere seconds.

"Now"

Reegan got the signal and started to run out of the gate.

"phannn!"

Suddenly a siren started to sound loud enough to alert all the others near the wall.

"Stop those outlaw Scums!"

A lot of Guards started chasing after them.

"Dammit! Run!" Nix grunted.

"Holly molly! If You have guts come and get me weaklingssss!"Reegan turned and mocked them energetically.

'Ah, this mad lad' Nix frowned.

"Ahhhhh!"

Suddenly Reegan shouted in pain.

When Nix turned behind he saw an arrow pierced on Reegan's Shoulder.

'ha, this Dumbo' Nix sighed inwardly.

[Private ability: Doom prediction vision activated.]

He activated his ability probably it was mere luck or not.

"shrieekkk"

Suddenly red flaming sword energy came at him he dodged it and pushed Reegan and fell on the floor.

He stood up from the floor and directed his gaze towards the direction from where the sword energy came. Slowly a slender female figure emerged. The Identity of the woman was Rebecca, but she had her helmet worn.

" "

Nix gulped hard looking at her who stopped in a distance with her soldiers.

She didn't come chasing him and she and her soldiers stood there for a few seconds and turned back towards the city.

Reegan started laughing while lying on the floor.

"hahahahaha Dammit buddy that was one hell of a chase"

"Get your crazy ass up we have to move now."

"hmm but damn buddy that was cool"

"whatever let's start walking."

Nix gave his hand for Reegan to stand up. And when they gazed around their environment, they were dumbstruck. They were in a desert now and they didn't have any food or water supplies. Reegan removed his shirt and tied it to stop his bleeding from the injury by getting shot by an arrow.

"This is a freaking desert, how are we going to get away from this place?"

"I don't know."

"First I have work to do, so let's walk after doing it."

Nix raised his hand in the air and half of his hand became invisible. When He took his hand back down he had two big eyeballs in his hand.

"Yo What magic is that?"

"Hmm, I used my inventory."

"What? I don't have those features how the hell did you get that feature? And I forgot to ask. You really don't have a class?"

"yes I haven't gained any level or class yet and I got inventory after I killed those Cyclops."

"Those eyes look gross, what are you going to do with them?"

" "

Nix didn't say anything he just closed his eyes and started biting the first eye.

'Hmm, a bit juicy and tastes a bit salty. ackk! This is gross.'

He tried his hard and chewed for a few seconds and gulped it. After that, he ate the other one without opening his eyes. He resisted the vomiting sensation and managed himself from throwing up. After fully eating those two eyes he opened his eyes.
