Chapter 54 Outside Of The Castle



But Aiden didn't care whether or not they would discover the bodies inside of their room as he was already out of the castle and literally no one could know that it was him who had done this.

Well... except Alex, but he probably wouldn't say with that personality of his.

The direction in which Aiden was going was the old and rusty house he had come in when he first entered this place.

He still needed some sleep after all. He wasn't an insomniac or something along those lines.

After killing some people it was obvious that he would to sleep. So, he started heading over there as the street was completely empty as most people were probably sleeping.

Well, everyone except those who seemed to be in the Upsilon Empire's pub. They were making so much noise that even Aiden could hear it as he was walking down the street.

'Should I go take a look? Maybe I could try a drink or two?' thought Aiden as he had never tried drinking alcohol before and he wanted to try it as he still had time for the rest of his task.

He was sure that he was going to complete it as he still had two complete days to find and kill the last general.

Even if he didn't know where he was, it shouldn't matter that much as he would ask for some information from people in the city, he could even try asking Alex for some information about him, trying to figure it out.

Thinking that his sleep could be pushed later, he decided to enter the pub which was still making as much noise as earlier with people shouting everywhere.

As he entered, he went directly to the counter, but this time he wouldn't be asking for water. He would ask for a beer wanting to know the effects it would have on him.

He had seen in movies people drink alcohol and they always in the worst scenarios possible so Aiden decided to go lightly on the alcohol and simply test it out.

Then, he started looking around him as he could observe people dancing, talking, and flirting with each other which made him think about his purpose in life.

'Is this what life should be like? Having fun with people?' thought Aiden, who didn't really understand the concept as it didn't make a lot of sense in his mind.

He had never gotten one small bit of fun in his life, the only time he had truly enjoyed himself was when he had sex with Mia.

Maybe that was what he had felt with Mia, fun.

He didn't understand why he had acted this way with Mia but maybe this was the reason. His body was trying to tell him to have fun.

As he heard the bartender behind him say that his beer was ready, he completely threw his earlier thoughts about drinking responsibly as he started jugging the entire beer.

People around the bar noticed it and started hyping him up telling him to drink him even faster which is exactly what he did.

But as he finished it, the drink seemed to want to resurface as his body clearly wasn't used to having any type of alcohol. 

His body reaction was totally normal, as Aiden started to vomit what he had just drunk.

People all around the pub started laughing at Aiden not understanding why someone would do such a thing.

"Ahaha, did you see him?"

"Yeah, I don't know why someone would do that."

But as Aiden got his head up after vomiting on the ground, he didn't want to finish his night there so he asked another beer to the bartender who accepted with pleasure, putting the beer on his tab.

Aiden, on the other hand, had totally forgotten that he didn't have money but he didn't care as he could simply beat up anyone who would come after him, as he had killed two of their generals.

As he got his second beer in his hands which this time he would drink slowly. An alarm sounded from the castle.

Big beeping sounds could be heard all around the city.

*BEEP*

*BEEP*

*BEEP*

Aiden who was about to drink instantly understood what had happened. 

The guards had gone into one of the rooms of the generals and had seen one of their dead bodies.

Aiden didn't panic as they had absolutely no way of finding it out it was him, but he still expected them to find the bodies tomorrow since there was no reason for them to check the rooms.

'I should probably leave this place,' thought Aiden as he gave back his beer to the bartender who was confused as to what was happening to the Empire.

But it wasn't only him, many people in the pub were asking themselves the same question.

"Are we under attack?"

"Why the hell is the alarm sounding this late at night?"

As Aiden heard them say that he understood that this alarm was only set on when a big situation was arriving in the Empire.

Hearing the words of those around him, he laughed a little.

'I guess they didn't like what I did,' thought Aiden finding this situation kind of funny.

But as went to get out of the bar, he gave one final look behind him and saw a man who was sitting alone in the bar and hadn't moved since the alarm had started.

The man truly was weird, he was only sipping on his drink. Observing those around him like a hawk.

As Aiden looked at his face, a message from the system appeared in front of him.

[You have detected one of the generals that you need to kill.]

When he saw this message appear in front of his eyes, he was completely shocked.

He stared at the man for a bit longer than one would usually do.

But, he quickly turned around as all sorts of questions passed through his mind.

Why was the last general that he needed to kill in a pub late at night?

What was he doing there?

But he was approaching the door to leave, he heard a voice behind him calling him.

"Where are you going like that?"
