Chapter 16: Albion
"Ha! That's the spirit! If you keep thinking like that then you will be a hero in no time!"(Diuscrucis)
Saying that, we walk out of the former cafe and started walking down the crowded street.
"So what exactly am I going to be doing during advance field training?"(Tomo)
"You are going to continue hunting criminals for your bounty hunter profession. I will join you for the first hunt but then you will be on your own for hunting the rest. I will only step in if you are in any real danger, but don't expect much beyond that. When I say this, I mean I will step in if your soul is about to break. If it's not then you won't get any help from me. By the way, what's your level and did you get a profession?"(Diuscrucis)
'Sigh' "I am now level 29 and I got the bounty hunterprofession. It is currently my primary profession."(Tomo)
"Good."(Diuscrucis)
"Then what are you going to be doing while I send everyone to jail?"(Tomo)
"I'll be placing bombs in strategic locations to destroy all the criminal activity in west zone."(Diuscrucis)
'Confused look' "How many innocent bystanders would die in those explosions?"(Tomo)
'Shrug' "I don't know. Millions?"(Diuscrucis)
'Look of shock' "You can't do that! They're innocent people!"(Tomo)
"Tomo. I'm fairly certain we could kill some random person's kid and we would be thanked for it because, that child would have been guilty of rape and or murder."(Diuscrucis)
"I don't believe that."(Tomo)
"Well you better start believing it Tomo. Because west zone is filled with nothing but assholes, rapists, and murderers. Hell! Give it enough time and you will start seeing your own picture being posted on the bounty boards."(Diuscrucis)
"Why are you so certain?"(Tomo)
"Because west zone is run by Demons and by nature we are dicks."(Diuscrucis)
To prove my point I started pickpocketing everyone we passed while we continued our conversation.
"Now, are you ready to head back to "Silky Wears"?"(Diuscrucis)
"Isn't that like an eight hour bus ride away? Why are we traveling so far?"(Tomo)
"It is but we will be teleporting there so it will only take a few seconds. Also, I'm fairly certain we can get a discount there."(Diuscrucis)
"You can teleport?"(Tomo)
"Yup."(Diuscrucis)
Saying that I grab her arm and teleport us back to central zone. Letting go of her arm I take a step to the side as she wobbles to regain her footing. While she regained her senses from her first long range teleport, I emptied all the wallets I stole.
"Ok there Tomo?"(Diuscrucis)
"Ya. Just a bit disoriented."(Tomo)
"You'll get used to it with a bit more practice. I'll even show you how to do it later."(Diuscrucis)
"So why did we teleport all the way here? I'm fairly certain that we could have threatened some random blacksmith if you wanted a discount."(Tomo)
"It's less suspicious if we get our goods here and use it in west zone, than it is to get our goods in west zone and use it there."(Diuscrucis)
"How is that less suspicious?"(Tomo)
"Because only morons make bombs in their homes just to blow up their own city. It is easily traceable. However, if you made the bombs in some abandoned building a few cities away and the sent it to your city through elaborate city to city networks. Even if they find your bombs, it will be difficult for them to trace it back to you."(Diuscrucis)
"Are all Demons criminals?"(Tomo)
'Strong nod' "Yes."(Diuscrucis)
