Chapter 54
I awoke cuddling between Stacy and Freya. They were both still asleep and I was stuck in the center. I decided to go back to sleep when I heard movement. I instinctually felt hairs stand. I moved using my flexibility to get out without a wasted movement or noise. My little cute tigers also had turned and were looking at the door. My instincts were crying at me to get ready. Something was coming and I dropped the robes and grabbed my whips. I had no other time for clothes.
The door burst in a rain of splinters and I moved forward with my leather whip going high and my leg going low to trip them. The person dodged both with ease but they were in the air. My other foot whipped up using the other as an anchor and hit the person. I felt a solid hit but what I hit was muscular or a fucking wall. I started rotating energy in my body then used the foot in the person while extending my foot's claws for grip. The foot moved down becoming an anchor point to pivot bringing them to the ground. My hand hit the floor and my momentum increased. This time the person hit the ground hard and I head breath being released harshly.
I flipped over the person to cancel the momentum that I had created and saw a large human-built of muscle under me while I was in the air. His fist shot out as I was recovering from my attack slamming straight into my stomach. I launched up to the roof wind out slightly as I hit it. I was winded and the man got up recovered as he watched me. My body reacted instinctively and my claws now extended dug into the roof and attached themselves. The stare-off started and ended in seconds as I launched down fast. The energy released into my whip at his feet and that strong fist filled my vision. I released the whip and used my core muscles to dodge.
His fist missed but the other came at a side angle while my hand unsheathed my bladed whip. His Fist slammed into my waist with a vengeance I flew through the broken door as I retaliated with my bladed whip encircling the offending hand. The whip reached its maximum length and I pulled as I hit the wall. His scream sounded out as the flesh on his arm and hand were torn. He clutched his hand briefly when three tigers attacked. One for his leg one on his good arm and one at his head. They attacked at the perfect moment they were waiting for. Each tore into flesh with Rajah tearing into his throat.
Rajah got a killing blow with blood rushing into his mouth. They all did amazing as everyone in the room was awake and they were moving to equip themselves. The battle was already over and I was naked in the hallway. I got to my feet and coughed up some blood. Fucker hit my kidney and it FUCKING HURTS. I limped back into the room while I heard people looking out of their rooms to the commotion. I grabbed my black robe and covered myself while holding my side. I went to my bags as more commotion came about and took out a healing potion that I promptly drank as fast as possible. I grabbed my gear and went to the bathroom to equip myself. I checked the room and no trap or anything so I went as quickly as my injured body would allow. When I came out the innkeeper was talking to Freya who was yelling at the innkeeper.
"All of you shut up!" I yelled as I came out clothed in my gear with daggers and whips in the light. People here had seen me kill and the dead man looked twice my size in the least and ended up dead. Rajah, Ariel, and Zara were now laying down in their corners watching the crowd. The Crowd ignored them as usual without realizing it. The credit then fell on me. This ability saved my life probably or my little cute tiger's lives.
"All of you leave my room but the Innkeeper. None of you have fucking business with me and so Fuck off." I was straight to the point and some of the crowd went. Most were intent on staying until I sent a whip mark into the wall warning them off. The rest scattered. I looked to the Innkeeper and my face was still frowning hard.
"What the fuck is with your fucking Inn? Twice I have had intruders into my room. Care to explain?" I ask simply my face heavy holding in my anger and anguish.
"Not my fault or the owner's fault. You showed off the valuable property and animals die for food. Humans die for money. You have shown a lot of gold not only in personal assets but in slaves as well. This is not the Inns fault you do not have enough security. This Inn has never guaranteed safety with your purchase of a room here. I will not make concessions on this. You have paid for a room with a Bath, The main bedroom, and a Training room. I have provided that. Your gold was used for these services and never did I state otherwise. Now you are asking me to guarantee your property and life?" He told me simply in a logical calm manner.
I pinched the bridge of my nose and visibly calmed myself down. He was right and I needed to regain my calm. I was in my bad habit of wanting to lash out since I was in pain. I got a grip quickly as I started to think more with my brain then my anger.
"Fine you are correct. I did only pay for that. I will expect that as well also next time I come here how about having everything fucking clean. Not the point I want to make though. Since my gold is used for the room I want a fucking door before evening." I told him and it was his turn to have a frown deepen.
This turned into a small agreement between us where I eventually said I would like the gold back if he didn't and I would take my business elsewhere. He finally relented and got someone to come fix the fucking door. My mood was sour, to say the least. I think I might move from this inn regardless. Carl was not fuming that he had not reacted fast enough to get involved in the fight. Freya realized she had been leaving her instrument too far from herself and Stacy had the same problem as her main weapon was too far from them. Cassandra looked at the rest like they were idiots and pulled out a book. Kitty just was curled up in her cage watching us while trying to look like she wasn't. I told everyone that I would watch our stuff today and that they had shit to go do. I told Cassandra that she had a mission today and took her book from her. I was not accepting slack today.
Cassandra went out with strict orders but I could see she wanted to get started anyways. If she wanted to be useful she needed to start right away. I was now practicing in the room flowing my energy. Collecting new mana and changing it into new energy cultivating it in slow exercises. I was calming down and the injuries were healing quick. The potion was at work and my body helped it along. The energy was speeding it up as well although not by much.
I spent more and more time when I heard a sound. I looked at the location of it and saw Kitty staring at me. "Meow!" she sounded out and used her nose to poke an old bowl of water. I will not lie to myself I wanted to gush at her cuteness and I realized I had not eaten in my anger. I gave a silent command to my tigers and went downstairs ordering food. Carl was sitting there fuming and I looked at him.
"What?" I asked him not in the mood to deal with bullshit.
"I want you to bear my pups." He told me frankly and I was stunned. After being stunned my anger turned worse. I fucking lost it. The ambush this morning the pain I was in and this fucker thinks I want his kids? I saw red and I turned to him looking at the stupid fuck that I had purchased. Carl realized that he had picked the worst moment that he ever could have to ask this question. My hand snapped out smacking him across the face and I fueled my body with energy. My hand tangled into his hair and I pulled him out of the last corner.
"Fucking dog you need to be taught a fucking lesson," I moved quickly throwing him into the training room. I was met with the pleasant surprise that Stacy had cleaned up for me. That mattered little though in my red haze. I threw the fucking dog in my hands to a rack.
"Shut your fucking mouth and don't fucking move." Rarely had I used the collars since I never felt that I needed too except when I first purchased. This fucker had made me snapped. His movement was stopped in its tracks as he tried to remove himself from the rack. It was at this moment I wish I had an old piece of equipment from my old world. The Iron maiden would have taught this fucking dog but I did not have that on me.
I tied him down in the rack and looked down at him. "You Fucking dog need to learn who the fuck is boss around here!" I grabbed some things off the wall and turned back ready to vent.
