As they leave the the general store and continue to the workshop They go down a dimly populated street
"The workshops pretty close to here it will probably take about another minute to get there" Yuzzon
"Okay so are you actually going to harvest my organs and this is just one giant trap or what" Alex He said in a Cautious tone
"Can you please stop talking about organ harvesting I am not I will not and I will probably never harvest someone's organs maybe monsters but that's different" Yuzzon In a forceful and angry Manner of speech
"Okay okay calm down if they're not with you who are they with" Alex He Said with a sense of Dread
"They who" Yuzzon He said visually concerned
"The people surrounding us I am so glad we went to the That general store" Alex As he pulls out the spool of snare wire from his pocket And quickly and abused man into it
Several hours earlier
Alex was sitting on his bed in the inn reading His magic book He had gone to the point where it was talking about strengthening and and enhancement magic and how they were the easiest And most widespread Magic Strengthening Obviously strengthens an object enhancement enhances an object for example making a making a sword sharper
"Let's see if this works" Alex
As Alex takes off his shoe and Undoes his lace He remembers back in His Technical School there's this game that they played called wire maze it was quite simply a bunch of PVC pipe together in a maze and you had to take a wire snake in Feed It through And get it to the right exit it through alex was probably one of the best players of this game in the entire school
Back in the present
"Can I help you Do you know it's rude not to introduce yourselves" Yuzzon He says well Grabs his small dagger preparing for a fight
Yuzzon Was concerned that these people were from the noble trying to destroy his workshop
"What looks like they're from the noble that you told me about" Alex as The snare wire that is holding quickly unravels by itself
There's about five thugs surrounding them some have just emerged from a corner and behind trash cans one of them has been following them almost the entire time
"What the hell are you doing" Thug one
"The kid doesn't matter We after the dwarf" Thug two As he pulls out a large knife
"Don't get Our away kid We're not getting paid to hurt you" Thug one As he pulls out Rectangular Baseball bat
"Are you fucking stupid Don't talking about that" Thug three He pulls out a Short sword
All of the attackers were human male and looks like I haven't showered in a week haven't eaten in a week and a half and smelled like it too
"So these guys are getting paid huh" Alex As the wire Continue to unravel it began to swirl around Alex like a tornado quickly unraveling the whole thing And breaking up into several pieces And Alex crabs each piece between his fingers
"Screw it let's just attack them both" Thug one As he lunges at Alex
The others began to attack An arrow out of nowhere Hits Yuzzon In the leg alex rushes over to his side oppose him behind a pile of garbage as he's doing that another arrow comes for him from the same location as he quickly Picks up a board with his Wires And blocks the arrow
"Neat trick I bet you can't do anything more than that with those flimsy wires" thug fore
As Alex calmly watches The enemies get closer He raps the wires around their neck and quickly begins to suffocate them dragging him dragging them as a living shield against the archer
"Help us help us he's going to kill us" all the thugs said simultaneously As they just barely being able to say that Through the strangulation They grab onto the wire around their throat and pull as hard as they can As they Nearly tear Off their own fingertips to get those few words out
"It's been like 2 hours since I've learned this track And you guys still can't deal with me I mean come on really" Alex
Truthfully this technique that Alex is using is actually quite the complicated thing if it wasn't for the fact that he was quite used to dealing with both wires and wires snake in his previous life this probably wouldn't go as easily as it did
"Well that's actually really impressive" Yuzzon He said Understanding what he's actually doing and how difficult it probably is to do
"All right yeah you there I should probably Clean up these guys and deal with the flag deal with that leg" Alex Use the remaining wire to Wrap around the arrow as he put his foot on his leg and pulled the arrow out he then used the wire to Stitch it closed
The commotion alerted nearby guards and As a group of five guards quickly ran towards them They're heavy footsteps shattered the serene Calm of The Empty Street They're silvery armor shining Through the dim lights Swords drawn Pointing at Alex
"Stop right there let go of them" Guard one As it looked like two individuals were attacking a Group of homeless people
"Release them immediately" Guard 2 As He moved towards The thugs So fast Alex could barely see it
As the guards swung down his sword the wire was immediately cut like it wasn't even there Something that thugs could barely deal with was quickly in effortlessly dealt with by the guard showing just how incompetent these thugs really were they were most likely hired homeless people
As the guards quickly saw Yuzzon In a pool of own blood A hastily stitched leg wound With years of experience on their side they can tell it was from an arrow
"So looks like there's an explanation needed on both sides so we're going to take you All in to the station to figure this out" Card three As he quickly pulls out several pairs of shackles
As all of them are being shackled and led to the station alex mentioned something
That there's another individual somewhere on the roof With an Bow Most likely a crossbow
"So it looks like the target wasn't me it was you that still doesn't explain the organ harvesting thing" Alex Said to Yuzzon
"Can you please stop talking about organ harvesting already we were attacked by a group of paid homeless people Not some not some crazies looking to harvest your organs" Yuzzon Visually pissed off
The guards begin to laugh gently at the Antics
