Chapter 63: That Was Pretty Cool
"Who are you? State your business."
"Hang on, just give me a second. Ah, here it is! My business card...more accurately, a card that states my business here, just as you requested," Replied Aster with a smile, as he took out and held up a Spell Card.
"What the-...drop it, now! Hands in the air and don’t move, I-...!"
"Too late," Aster cut him off, as he ran his Mana through the Spell Card, before putting it back into his Storage Ring and taking a swift step back as the Knight tried to grab him, easily evading his grasp.
He and Tacitus had gone to a place called Beryl Town, Tacitus had headed for the church while Aster was at the Knight outpost. He was wearing a black wig, and he’d approached the two Knights standing guard outside the building.
While they didn’t recognize him from the wanted posters thanks to the wig he was wearing, they had been ordered to not allow anyone in without first confirming that they weren’t a threat, after The Irregulars’ last attack.
Aster then raised his hands as the two Knights began to chase after him, firing out intense, blunt bursts of telekinesis and striking their bodies, eliciting sharp, wheezing gasps from them as they got sent flying back and crashed onto the building on either side of the entrance.
As the Knights inside got alerted to the commotion, Aster swiftly raced into the building, the Knights quickly springing into action and putting up their guards as Aster took off the wig and tossed it away.
"That’s one of The Irregulars!"
"Protect El-...I-I mean, the Teleporter, don’t let him near them!"
"Ah, they’re avoiding naming the Teleporter to keep me from targeting them...but unfortunately for them, I already know who it is," Aster thought to himself as he looked around the space.
