24 The Ambush.

Aron was slowly traveling to Amber village. His space was producing stone and clay by itself. His target was to find a good quality wood source. The forest has some brook or small rivers and water are clear. Finding such a source, was a small problem for him right now. His knowledge and skill were rapidly growing, yet he wasn't satisfied at all.

It was a few hundreds of meters from the village, people were hiding in the bushes waiting for him.

'It should be a blacksmith, this man cannot stay me any longer... I can dodge them, yet I really want to finish this conflict for good. I will plunder his talents and skills, blacksmith's skills will make my position in the village more stable.'

He took out the bow and decided to check their intentions, to confirm his assumptions. The arrows hit the ground close to a man hiding inside one of the bushes. They left their positions and started to walk into his direction.

"WHY DID YOU SHOOT AT US?" One of them shouted, trying to play the victim in this ambush.

"One more step and you will visit underworld. If you think that I will miss by asking your lord about how many carcasses I brought to the village."

"Well, well, well! You stupid motherfucker! You cannot live without worry, while our sons are missing!"

"You blame me for their disappearance? They beat me every fuckin time, I saw them. My life was hell, even that day when they left. They beat me almost to death." He faked some emotions while shouting to them.

"It doesn't matter! We cannot let you live. You are an outsider to villages and you must leave!"

"I must leave? Because a bunch of morons left and you blame me for that. IT DOESN"T MATTER IF I WAS INVOLVED OR NOT. YOU WANT TO FIND SOMEONE TO BE YOUR SCAPEGOAT!" It wasn't an annoyance, it was wrath. These people didn't care about what was right and wrong. They chose him as a scapegoat. The bullying from before was probably their doing too.

"I have one more question. Did you order your children to bully me? Answer me! "

"Hahaha! You think that we would let a freak like you living in our society. You are stupid!"

"Good to hear. Do you want to know something about your children?" He smiled while saying the last sentence.

"Talk and we might let you leave!" The blacksmith was desperate, his nephew was missing for a long time, and he was worried about him.

"Good. I will tell you. THEY ARE FUCKIN DEAD! THEY DIED LIKE PIGS! HAHHAHAHA! Do you want to know something? I slaughtered them because I thought they were beasts, yet I was wrong it was your fault. They were just good children listening to their retarded parents."

He said with a trace of regret in his voice. These idiots weren't good people, most of their fault was their parent's fault.

"I WILL FUCKIN KILL YOU STUPID FREAK!" One of them couldn't keep his anger anymore and started running in his direction.

"You forgot something!" This moment arrow penetrated the skull of this man. The rest was terrified, they didn't even see when he shoot this arrow.

"Hank, shoot this brat!" Blacksmith shouted and one of man started shooting at Aron.

"HAHAHA! With lousy skill like this...you cannot shoot immobile target.."

Swish! Swish! Swish!... The only blacksmith was standing, all of them were dead.

"You see, I regret not killing you earlier. Trash kid!" This moment Aron penetrated his heart with another arrow.

"So many regrets...with no time to live." His voice was hoarse and melancholic, the vicious cycle must continue as there are always people that won't let you live peacefully because of their own stupidity.

He put the bodies inside the space and changed clothes into a clean one. There was no glory in killing these people, they were only idiots with prejudice against him.

The village was lively and none knew that blacksmith was dead. They thought, he left to visit his family in other villages. Aron decided to visit the village chief first and explain to him the sickness.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Come in.." The silent voice came out of the hut. Aron came in and found out the village chief in the terrible state. He was half dead, it was measles that Alex brought with him.

[State: Dying]

' It's my fault! If I came earlier, I could cure him with a prescription.' He wasn't aware that tears began to flow from his eyes.

"It's ok, kid. I was old anyway. I wouldn't live long. Take care of this village. I know that blacksmith won't let you take my place so become village healer as long you can. You were a good student. Thank you for all..." His voice became weaker and weaker. He started to scream and after few seconds he died.

Aron stood there as it wasn't happening.

'He didn't let anyone take care of him. Even in his last moments, he thought about these fucking villagers.'

Two leaders of this village were dead. He could lead them, yet his emotional state was quite bad.

'I could prevent all of this...' Blaming himself and decided that he cannot stay inside of this village.

He called all villagers, and they buried the chief and after some time, the boy started talking.

"The village needs a new chief."

"I think blacksmith will be the perfect candidate!" One of the blacksmith supporters said with pride.

"No, he won't!" Said Aron with anger in his voice.

"Boy, I know you were a chief student but you are a little brat with milk under your nose. KNOW YOUR PLACE!"

"I wonder how fuckin corpse will lead this village?" He was already at his limits. These events became too much. He had experience from a previous life, yet this body was young and reacted differently.

"I don't understand!" Said villager with confusion.

"I killed them all! The crazy motherfuckers that bullied me. Today, a few hours ago blacksmith with his friends set an ambush on me. I killed every one of them!" People became shocked and started to fear this boy. Roger came from the crows and said.

"I told you, boy. Killing isn't the way. You should leave, you cannot leave within this society. Even if you change, people will blame you for what happened."

"GET OUT BEAST!" Someone shouted from the crowd.

The wife of blacksmith came out and started cursing at him.

"GIVE ME MY HUSBAND BACK! YOU MONSTER!" She was crying while saying these words. She loved him, more than her life.

"Bring me, justice. TODAY MY HUSBAND DIED! TOMORROW YOUR SON! KILL THAT CRAZY MOTHERFUCKER!" She shouted and people around started to attack him.

One jumped at Aron with fists, yet boy dodged and kicked him with full strength.

"I WILL SLAUGHTER ANYONE THAT ATTACKS ME!" He didn't want to kill and started to retreat from the village.

Rose was standing within the crowd with tears in her eyes. She was scared of him and it hurt more than all of these people wanting his death.

'There is no place for me. These people were right, I cannot live within normal society' People were scared so he went to his hut and took his things to space and started leaving.

"I am disappointed in your resolve kid. You could let them live. You know that the lives of these simpleminded people were important to the village." Roger was sad about the state of events.

"I am sorry. I could spare their lives, yet it was pointless. They would search for ways to mess with me. Although, killing all of them was little too much. I cannot change past."

Roger took out the small necklace with fangs.

"You currently lost your way, yet someday you will find it again. You can visit me anytime. This necklace was inherited from my ancestors. I hope you will give it to your child. Goodbye, my student." Roger left in hurry and Aron didn't wait much and left too.

'They will have trouble surviving.'

No tools, no medicine, and a new leader.

'It's not my problem anymore... I need to go to the city, the rumors spread faster than wind in small villages like those. None will accept murdered into their society.'
