It's afternoon with a chilly northern wind breezing in the air, it touches the royal bodyguard robe that cover his black wear as he is traveling even further to the north non stop at an inhumane speed, a feet only accomplished after using multiple spell

With the same scenery playing right Infront of his eyes, he can't help but to occasionally let out a small yawn with a feeling of dozing off in mere moment

(Sigh... almost make a missteps just now) [Azumi]

But due to his enhance reflex, he manage to recover quickly

(Should arrive around tomorrow, maybe around 7 in the night if I keep going at this speed) [Azumi]

That's provided that nothing bad will happen, but the Murphy law strikes as he see a group of traveler being attacked by bandit

(Well, I should help them) [Azumi]

The bandits, around 20 in number have the clear advantage over the group of traveler without any guard nor any adventure. All they can do is practicing some self defense which they clearly couldn't do

In panic, one of the traveler push down a teenage girl from the dog tribe Infront

"You are the lowly life here! Just sacrifice for us will you!" [Traveler A]

"No please, don't!" [Dog tribe girl]

"Shut It!" [Traveler B]

The group of traveler doesn't even hear her plead and push her to shield theirselves so that they won't be in any danger

The bandit leader, without even using any strength just try to catch the teenage girl, trying to harass her body, her plead fall into a deaf ear as the leader clearly enjoying the situation he is in when suddenly

"I wouldn't do that if I were you" [Azumi]

The royal bodyguard arrive, giving off a warning but his warning get reply in a rude manner

"Shut it, I can do whatever I li... It's hot!" [Bandit leader]

Azumi, knowing what the bandit leader would reply just fire off a chantless fire arrow at the shoulder of the bandit leader, causing him to release the girl. The girl try to run back to the group only to be kick out by the traveler, literally

"Don't you dare come here you lowly life!" [Traveler C]

The face of the girl become more desperate as she search for help

"It's alright" [Azumi]

As Azumi said that to her, he envelope the girl in a wall of wind magic and also light dome magic to protect her

"Stay there, you will be safe" [Azumi]

"Thank you" [Dog tribe girl]

"How about us!" [Traveler C]

"Hmphh, someone who can do that to a girl aren't qualified to receive my help" [Azumi]

As he said that, the group of bandit try to attack him, but to no avail as he simply dodge and counteract each of it with a blow to the head and jaw. When the bandit fall to the ground, he restrain them by using earth envelope magic, which causes them to be restrained by body of earth as tightly as the caster wanted to, only leaving the area above the nose so that the bandit can be captured alive

"You bastard!" [Bandit]

"Get him!" [Bandit leader]

"Looks like you still haven't learn your place" [Azumi]

He took a deep breath before unleashing a consecutive chantless fire arrow at the bandit group, melting their weapon and armor and before they knew it, their number have been reduced to only one person and that's the bandit leader which currently trying to escape with all his might but to no avail as another chantless fire Arrow hit his back, which causes him to fall off and Azumi once again uses earth envelope magic to him

Seeing that the 20 bandit have been restrain all by himself, Azumi simply dispel his barrier around the girl, walk toward him and tend to her. There's a bump and swelling at the face of the young teenage girls, most likely due to the action of the other travelers. He doesn't hesitate to heal her

"Thank, thank you" [Dog tribe girl]

"Don't sweat it, a girl should appear pretty after all" [Azumi]

"Thank, than..." [Dog tribe girl]

"Someone blushing" [Azumi]

The girl let out a little pout at Azumi remarks. Seeing that she doesn't have any other injuries, he then proceed to have a "talk" with other travelers

"Thank you kind sir! You really are strong!" [Traveler A]

"Not appreciating your flattery" [Azumi]

"!" [Travelers]

"You have the nerve to do that to a young girl, have you guys have no shame?" [Azumi]

He said that in an angry voice

"She is just a lowly life, either one of us will "ate" her or the bandit will do" [Traveler A]

"Yeah, that's all there is to them" [Traveler B]

"You have the nerve to said that, I suppose the only reason you haven't done that is because of the other female traveler with you" [Azumi]

"If you're going to lecture us then just leave, we can handle it ourselves to begin with!" [Traveler C]

"I suppose so, and the two lady there, both of you doesn't have any family member traveling with you currently?" [Azumi]

They shake their head sideway, they are desperate to escape from the group of traveler after hearing their remark. 

"Hmphh, playing hero" [Traveler A]

Being a little bit petty, Azumi silently destroy all four wheel of the carriage carrying them by using an earth magic. He then explain to the two lady and the dog tribe girl what he is about to do. After hearing that they are heading north and that the town up ahead are their destination, Azumi then envelope the three with his mana and take off at a rather high speed (but still slower as compared to before)

"Too fast!" [Dog tribe girl]

The other two lady violently nod their head but it once again, fall to a deaf ear

(Sorry, but I have to do it) [Azumi]
