My Guardian System: The Trader

As they were walking away from the area where the dungeon entrance was, Old Barn noticed something when he glanced above. His forehead furrowed and his eyes narrowed. He watched carefully and tried to take a good look at what was flying in the sky.

Old Barn thought. \'They don\'t look like birds based on their appearance. Although they have wings like bats, they are much larger than real bats. Unless they are mutated bats. But I never heard of mutated bats roaming our area. So, what are those things?\'

Oldman Barn called the two. "Wait, Jem, Miles. What are those things flying above us? " His granddaughter, Miles, looked at him when she heard her grandfather\'s question. Seeing her grandfather looking up, Miles also immediately turned her gaze upwards. Her forehead furrowed at the sight and her eyes widened. "Monsters!" Suddenly fear registered on their faces after she uttered it.

Exactly when Jem looked up they saw one of the flying monsters lands in the area where the dungeon entrance was. Its broad wings folded when its feet touched the ground. It rushed directly to the two people guarding the entrance. Since they weren\'t very far away, the three were able to see the monster\'s rush. But, due to the darkness of the surroundings, it was difficult for them to discern the whole appearance of the monster. Just so, although they find it difficult to discern its full appearance, it is not impossible to recognize it. Based on the shape of its appearance, they quickly compared it to monster trolls. Except for its wings, the monster\'s appearance actually resembles a troll!

"We have a visitor," said one of the guards at the dungeon entrance as he prepared his hand on the handle of his weapon with its wide and round head resting on the ground. The weapon he held was a large battleax.

On his side stood one of his companions while on the other side was the huge duckling. The companion sighed before stepping forward. "I\'ll take care of it."

He looked at his companion and said, "Hm, even if it is only C-ranked, it\'s much stronger than a normal troll," he said to his companion.

"I know that," he simply replied to his companion without even feeling any fear or nervousness.

After saying his reply, he addressed the monster. "It\'s good that you finally came down here." There was no noticeable fear in his voice as he said this to the monster. But, the monster\'s only answer was an unintelligible growl.

Rawr!

The monster produced an eerie noise as it stepped quickly towards him. He immediately reached for the hanging weapon behind him. After he held in his hand the sword he had taken from his back, three bright rings appeared on his arm. \'Level 3,\' Jem whispered in his mind as he watched from a distance. They saw the man\'s energy feed on the sword he was holding. Suddenly the sword shone like a light after it absorbed his energy. Without wasting time, the man quickly met the monster.

The monster waved its hands with sharp claws at the man. The man avoided the attacks with a few body movements. When he saw an opportunity, he did not hesitate to attack. They could see the drawing of light in the air as he struck his sword at the defenseless body of the monster.

GWAR!

The monster howled loudly when it hit it. A large horizontal wound registered on the monster\'s body, followed by the shedding of blood from its body. The monster fell after it cried out loudly. Jem realizes that those people were truly strong. They are good at fighting. And their level is also high.

As he watched the fight, his attention was suddenly distracted from a shout.

"There\'s a monster in front of us!"

This cry is from Miles. When he looked ahead again, he saw a monster. Based on its appearance, it looks the same as the flying monster that attacked the Supa-Duckling guild member. \'It really is a troll,\' Jem thought upon seeing it at a closer distance. But, compared to the ordinary troll, it has a longer tail and a pair of wide wings. Maybe calling it the Flying Troll is much better.

The Flying Troll wasted no time after landing in front of them. It rushed at them aggressively. Miles and Oldman Barn subconsciously stepped back out of fright. On the contrary, Jem quietly stepped forward. "Eh ?!" Miles was shocked and immediately called the young man. "Come on, Jem! What are you planning to do?!"

"Kill the monster," was his simple answer. As if it was an obvious matter.

Miles gawked. "What are you saying? Let\'s just run and ask those people for help!" She said, but Jem remained on his feet.

"....."

Jem didn\'t answer as his eyes were just staring at the rushing monster.

This was noticed by the people guarding the dungeon entrance. "Wait! It looks like those three are in danger! " Said the man holding the Battleaxe. The man with the sword also looked at Jem and the other\'s direction. He had just dispatched a Flying Troll and now he was currently getting rid of the blood sticking to his sword. His forehead furrowed at the sight. "We won\'t make it!" Based on his estimation from their distance, even if he speeds up the pace it seems impossible that they can actually save them.

Although the monster is only C-ranked, they believe that it is not the kind of monster that can be defeated by someone like Jem.

The man with the sword rushed to their rescue. The other person was left guarding the dungeon entrance. But, not even halfway through his run, he suddenly stopped.

"What!?" He cried in shock.

Seeing the monster rush, Jem calmly grabbed a knife from under his jacket and quickly threw it at the oncoming monster.

Swoosh~

The knife traveled fast, but the monster quickly evaded it. It only grazed on the monster\'s shoulder, where a horn can be seen. But, even if it grazed it, there was no visible wound. The durability of its skin must be higher. Jem thought so.

However, it was when the man with a sword stopped on his feet with his eyes widened. He saw the monster stop rushing after three steps. And on its forehead, he saw another knife buried and it fell down.. But how did that happen? The man was surprised.
