Red Rider 5
Eleventh quest
"Since when did you start to worry for the people of the city and their wellness?" the merchant squinted his eyes and asked. He was among the crowd and knew that red riders would not attack him right now.
So he thought to answer the security member that was pretty active today. "I am not worried for the people of the city. In fact I do not care what is happening in their lives. My job is to protect you since you are under threat." Junan indifferently answered.
He wanted to look professional or else the merchant might get scared of him knowing that he did not belong to the city.
The merchant got shocked to hear. As for as he remembered, he did not relate the matter of threat to anyone then how on earth this security member knew about it..
He turned to see the security member. Junan remained neutral. He was familiar with the reaction of the merchant. He did not know that the mention of threat made the merchant curious.
"You alone cannot do anything." The merchant got stumped at the answer however he gritted his teeth and spoke. He was unsure why this security member was showing efficiency today.
There was hatred in his eyes. Mendon did not want to die but he was somewhat certain that the red rider would chase him no matter how much harder he struggled to escape.
He was in the middle to say something when the fake red rider attacked at him. During their talk the crowd dispersed. They red riders were keeping eyes at the merchant when they saw that a security member was talking to him, they thought to attack and scare them.
They wanted the merchant to leave through the exit so their boss could follow behind. Ahram showed up suddenly and his chain swayed to throw away the card.
The order of the team head was strict. Ahram did not blink his eyes because he knew that enemies would attack seeing the merchant stopping by.
The merchant felt that he was going to die because he happened to see the attack however someone stropped the card in the middle. The red rider got shocked while the merchant wide opened his eyes. The one who stopped the card was none other but security member. It was another matter that he never saw such active security member.
Mendon looked back at Junan. Junan nodded, "You will remain safe with us. There are people that wanted to kill you. It is not secure that you leave from this exit." Junan spoke.
The merchant was in the middle to decide when he saw few red riders coming to interrupt. Ahram turned toward them. The chain circled around the first one that attacked on the merchant and brought him on the ground.
The rider fell from the horse. Red rider created twelve teams of fake riders with the card to threaten the city people.
He wanted them to remain fearful about his presence. The man fell from the horse and the other rider attacked at Ahram. Perhaps they learned how to attack by using the cards.
It was apparent that they were here to bring trouble for the merchant. However their actions were limited.
It helped Ahram to tackle them. He smoothly attacked with the chain. The card was rendered useless in the middle while the rider fell face down from the horse.
The other riders saw this situation and stepped back. They were not sure when did the perfidious security members started to act against the riders.
The real red rider bribed security members to not take active actions against the red riders.
This was the reason that security members were careless about the murders in the city. They kept the mouth and weapons shut against red riders and their lawless activities.
Since two security members were going against them it was necessary to inform boss. Ahram stopped another rider but the fifth one escaped from the distance.
The merchant saw with his bare eyes that the security member wanted to save him so he turned toward Junan. "Where should I go now? Or do you have any suggestion?" he asked believing the words of the security member.
Junan spoke with ease, "We will leave through the rare exit. My team would help you leave the city safely."
Junan had been thinking what was the safest way to get rid the threat of the deduction of the quest perks. The life of the merchant was important however they might not be able to keep eyes at him all the time.
The best solution for the problem came in his head. They were under the quest area however the npc's of all types could move inside and outside of the quest area.
It was up to their choice. To secure the merchant, Junan decided to send the merchant out of the city. They were not restricted so they could search the enemy. Also it was bait for the boss.
Junan wanted to know if the real boss was after the life of the merchant. If this was true then they could spot the boss and his gang. With this the quest would no more create trouble for them once they killed the boss.
"If you can help me escape from the city, I will you half of my wealth." The merchant gladly offered. He thought that perhaps the offer of the wealth made the security members honestly work for him.
"Your wealth cannot bring anything good for us." Junan shook his head. He might have taken this wealth if he happened to be in real life but the stat of the virtual wealth was not something he wanted in return.
However he could not explain it to the merchant. The merchant was similar of side character in the hero's tale.
Junan saw the red riders unable to stand up after Ahram attacked them. He gestured to hurry and leave.
