The Repentant's Path

Chapter 3 :Satsuma

"I have to get out of there quickly!How did they manage to defeat augmented humans with this ancient technology? The blood on the floor was fresh, they were buchered recently.But still why their flesh is rotten while their blood was fresh? Makes me suspicious...and confused."

Hayato decided to not lose any time and quickly planned his escape. A tiny metallic rod came out of his index finger and with that he lockpicked the door. He ran through the unending dark corridors of this dungeon until he found the door.

"Hm, the guard is still outside... Dammit!"
Hayato knocked the wooden door.

"What's this sound?" questioned the naive guard.
He opened the door just for him to get grabbed by Hayato and get jabbed  in the neck. The guard passed out.

Hayato then got out of the dungeon and left the fortress disguised as the guard. He answered to anyone who asked him why he left his post that his shift was over. None of them ordered him to go back at his duties. He was probably a high ranking officer.

Then,as he was running through the woods, three men standing on a branch of a tree were carefully observing him.

"Ohohoho! Hell nah! Don't tell me!Is that him? Is that dude the man that we were talking for so many years?" asked the one on the right.

"Exactly."answered the one in the middle.

" So boss, who exactly is he?"he asked again.

" Jeez Takeminashiki!How many times will I say it again!"sighed the middle one, kinda frustrated.

"But since you don't seem sober I will say it again. He is the ancestor of those who killed our fellow clansmen who paved the way for us to settle in this planet."he continued.

The man on the left was absolutely shocked by hearing this. He was staring at his comrade with his mouth hanging from shock.

"Ayooo you are kidding! T-then his bloodline should possess a high level threat to our clan. We should obliterate him right now! "he said. It was clear that he was drunk...

" No,Takeminashiki! You should know that his bloodline's prowess doesn't concern me at all. Apparently, Momoshiki has already taken care of this issue. But that doesn't mean we should underestimate him. He also bares a karma so be extra careful." answered again  the one in the middle.

"Do we know who's vessel is he?" spoke the one on the right.

"No Inuyashiki. Stuff like that were not written in the Scroll of Earth."

"Omoikane-senpai,that should be more burden for us since we have to deal with another asshole who oppose us!" stated the drunken one.

"Don't be fullish, no human will make us sweat."said the mysterious man named Omoikane and smirked.

" At least for now... ".
And then the three of them disappeared.

"Huh? What was that chakra signal? It appeared for a second and vanished.

Ah, nevermind. My sensory abilities have probably gone crazy because of my long slumber." though Hayato and kept running through the forest.

He finally reached the city's main gate again. The soldiers guarding it instantly let him to enter, because he was transformed to that high ranking officer.
