In the outskirts of Bright Territory, a group of 10 young adults traveled around along with one of the new Aborigine hires, Badjau, who they commissioned to guard them.

They were training to increase their strength and skills, hoping to be as cool as the soldier group. Most young adults tended to prefer this to doing any of those jobs. After all, many youngins’ longed for adventure and a life of thrill.

They were still filled with optimism characteristic of people their age, and it was really refreshing to be with for a similar-aged Aborigine like Badjau.

Badjau was not very handsome, but he was quite strong. He had very curly hair and very dark skin. He seemed to be younger than others, only in his teens, though was in fact around their age at 23 years old.

He was also a bit shorter compared to the other aborigines—only about average Terran height. He was also a bit disproportional with his short neck, slightly oblong build, and pudgy fingers.

And he was also a level 12 spearman who liked going around half-naked.

“I’ve always been wondering… Badjau,” one of the young men asked, holding out his sword in case of an attack. “Why do you like going around naked?” Wasn’t he concerned about lacking equipment?

The man shrugged, “I dunno. It’s just how we are back home.”

Sera, one of the girls with them, blinked at him. Badjau was not traditionally handsome with his flat nose and not-so-prominent features, but he was a very very good spearman and he happened to have saved Sera many times during this excursion of theirs. “Tell us more about your home.”

It was an obvious flirtation and Badjau flinched a bit, flushed, and looking around in shyness. However, he forced himself to do his job and observed their surroundings, only speaking when he was sure that there was no enemies.

“We live near the sea and we have taken our livelihoods there. Some of our houses are even in stilts.”

This made the young men and women look at him in wonder and nostalgia. “Sea?! I wonder if it’s near here… I miss it so much.”

Another one rolled his eyes. This was Inigo, one of the more practical lads. “Hey, you think the sea here is as peaceful as Terran? There should be monsters here right?”

Badjau nodded at this. “The lowest level sea monster I have encountered is level 10.”

Cringe.

Their looks of admiration didn’t budge though, making the seaman even more shy.

No wonder Badjau was so strong despite only being from a village and with his young age.

“What about food then?”

“Our main source of food is fish,” Badjau answered. “I am surprised to see some in the market.”

“It’s from Altera,” Inigo said, eyes with a bit of longing.

“Altera?”

“Ah, we forgot you’ve just been hired.” It was Sera who answered with a smile. “It’s a place where we get a lot of our goods. It’s not actually so far, just a couple of hours away. We should go there someday. There’re a lot of fun things we can try!”

“Deal!”

“Deal!”

Badjau smiled at them. “Yes, I’ll protect you guys.”

“No, we’ll be strong enough to protect ourselves by then. You.. are going with us as our friend.”

“There are so many fun things to do there!” Inigo said, “I heard it from Luis and the other citizens when they were visiting. A lot of new facilities got opened!”

“How exciting…”

Another girl couldn’t help but comment. “I wanna see the golden god again…”

Another girl sighed, “Ah, how handsome…”

At this, someone at the back cackled, poking a shy-looking girl beside him.

“Lani’s saving up so she can move to Altera and see her prince.”

Everyone laughed at this, most of whom knowing the inside joke.

When Altera first showed their presence in the territory, Ansel was there and Lani was one of his great patrons!

She pretty much used up her savings to buy a bit of everything!

Of course, fortunately, they were all good buys so she didn’t die of her impulsive decisions. She even made money by reselling.

Badjau looked at the others with a smile, curious. “Prince?”

“Prince Ansel~”

“Oh, you know of a prince?”

“Well, not a noble prince, but he’s as close as it could go.”

Badjau was very confused.

The jeering continued until the shy Lani couldn’t take it anymore. “He smiled at me!”

“Yeah, cuz you bought everything he sold.”

Laughter erupted again.

Badjau couldn’t help but laugh with them. He had never been like this with his other peers. After all, everyone was focused on surviving…

It’s nice.

However, he stopped as he felt some droplets fall down. He frowned, lifting his hand and catching a droplet on his palm.

“It’s raining…” he said, voice low. He didn’t know why, but it felt like a bad omen.

“What!” Inigo and the others cursed. Some who had money took out their raincoats, while others could only take some big leaf to cover themselves.

“Oh, mann!”

Immediately, they rushed back to the territory.

The aborigines had told them of the effects of rain. Colds and flus were, unsurprisingly, not common here, however, the rain was a part of the cleansing of this world. Everyone’s health gets consumed much faster and recovered much slower during this time.

The thinner, more absorbent, the skin, the bigger the effect of rain, and for this they naturally could not compare to beasts. There was no advantage of fighting in the rain, especially against monsters with thick skin!

They ran back with Badjau having his weapon out to protect his watches from beasts as they came.

It was just that the beasts they encountered this time weren’t something he could handle.

BANG!

They gasped and screamed and watched as Inigo fall down, blood pouring out of his chest.

It took a beat to realize what happened, and the lad’s closest friends yelled at the top of their lungs.

“INIGO!”

“WHAT THE F— INIGO! OI!”

However, they couldn’t approach their friend’s body as more bullets went in their direction. Hitting and grazing a few people.

BANG! BANG!

“What? It’s really a gun?!”

They screamed, immediately scuttling about to find some cover. Some of them ran as far as they could, while most did not dare, knowing if the guns didn’t take them, beasts would.

Badjau’s ears still rang as his cheek bled, the bullet just grazing him. He looked around, his watches were now segregated and much harder to protect. However, he did go away from the scene, skillfully hiding in one of the bushes.

Fortunately, the gunshots stopped, and soon the footsteps got nearer and nearer. They could also hear their discussions.

“Wow, you’re right. This is pretty amazing.” One of the men said. Judging by his height and features, he was an aborigine.

“There’s more where that came from.”

They stopped right by Inigo’s bloody body.

“So one of those three shots hit someone, eh?”

“Hm, as expected of an expert archer. You got the hang of it quite easily.”

“Anyway, our lord is so smart, to start hunting prey so early. At least if we’re outside the territory, we won’t be triggering any punishments…”

Inigo gasped and caught the attention of the men. “Still alive, eh?”

One of the men took out his spear. “We don’t want to waste bullets,” he said, stabbing and finally ending his life.

This caused a lot of gasps and screams and the men grinned. It wasn’t that they didn’t know there were people hiding around, but why put so much effort when they could show themselves with a single move?

The man immediately pointed his gun in a direction.

Badjau’s eyebrows furrowed. “RUN! They’re enemies going to war with us!” He yelled, having experienced a number of wars himself.

“War?!” Sera exclaimed. “How come we didn’t—”

And, as if on cue—

[Your Village Bright Village (Lv3) will go to war with Fargo Village (Lv3) in 11:59:50 hours]

BANG!

Badjau felt a sharp pain and fell down among the bushes.

“No, Badjau!” He could hear their yells, and he felt the pain cloud his senses.

“Sorry! We’re so sorry!” He could hear some people tell, running away.

They did run for their lives, of course they did, and Badjau didn’t blame them because he’d have done the same.

However, it was still too late and they weren’t able to run.

In fact, even Sera, who had been one of the people who ran away early, had been caught. They were already dragging the captured young men and women back to the small clearing. A lot of them cried, outwardly sobbing when they saw Inigo’s body.

“We got them!”

“Kyaaa! Noo!”

“Lani?!”

“HELP!”

“Sera!!”

The men were killed one by one, the corpses thrown in with Inigo’s body. The women sobbed harder, losing hope.

An aborigine held Lani’s face and his face immediately filled with lust.

“Wow, your women are beautiful!” The aborigine exclaimed and the Fargo man laughed in pride.

“Of course!”

The next thing that was heard were ripped clothes and screams.

Badjau, weakening and unable to move, could only listen to the screams of his friends, losing their lives one by one.

Even after everything he had been through, he couldn’t do anything at all.

And he could only lose consciousness in despair.
