Magical Love: Learn To Love In Another World

From that moment on I was not allowed to cook anymore. But this was okay because Marsil and Able's cooking was top notch. We ventured through the woods for two days before finally reaching the other side and traveling along the main road that would take us to a small village at the base of the mountain. The only problem was what was standing before us.

"Leave all your valuables and the women and we can let you little lads go!" That's right in front of me at this very second, saying the most cliche lines for any evildoer, was a real life bandit. Ones I have only ever read about in novels, manga, and seen in anime or movies. The real deal, I mean they were even laughing away and tapping their swords on their shoulders while licking their lips. 

I sighed and leaned over and whispered to Able: "Is it just me or do they all seem to be asking to die?" 

"No, it's not just you, they truly are, because I am going to kill them." Able wasted no time using his internal energy and disappearing from where he stood. 

Before the lead bandit could even react, one of his comrades was already stabbed through. Since Able moved so did the rest of us. Surprisingly Sam did not seem against attacking these people as he waved his hand while chanting a spell creating six fireballs and sending them into the group of bandits. Marsil was no slouch either as she rained arrows down from above. Seeing everyone else was attacking, I figured I might as well join in. So I quickly entered the fray with them. 

Even though we were outnumbered twenty to four we were doing rather well. Abel had already fell four enemies by the time I joined in. Marsil took out three and Sam took out five. And me? Well, I just killed my third man leaving only five left including their leader. 

"Wait! Please! Wait! I know what I said just now was not right. If you let us live we will never rob anyone ever again I swear on my life!" The lead bandit yelled out as he got on his knees. His buddies who were caught up in fighting almost fell over hearing their leader's words.

I stopped my actions and looked at the bandit leader who was on his knees begging and sneered. "Did you let go of the people you robbed before? Did you let those girls go free? Did you let them keep their money? Or did you just take their lives and freedom? Let me tell you something I learned not long ago. Life sucks!" After saying this I waved my hand and set the bandit leader on fire before going back to fighting the man in front of me. 

In a matter of minutes, all the bandits were killed. I once again used earth magic to settle their bodies. It was actually frightening at how adept at killing other humans I was becoming. But that was the nature of this world. So I guess it was a good thing.

After the bandit incident, we did not run into any more troubles and we quickly made it to the small village of Torsola which sat at the bottom of the Moon Cap Mountains where we would find the new dungeon. "Should we stop in the village?" Sam asked.

"No we can't, plus even if we did I am sure there is no inn to be had. It's best to just enter the mountain directly." Although the village may have an inn, I said what I said in order to not mention anything about Marsil's issue. To me, this was not an issue but I did not want Marsil to feel out of place because of her race. 

"Alright, as Rei said let's enter the mountains and try to reach the dungeon before nightfall." Able said, giving everyone a push to keep going.

No one protested and we continued on. The bottom half of the mountain was a thick forest which was good but our destination was mid way up the mountain. Unlike the last forest that we traveled through which had low level monsters such as Horned rabbits, this forest had around E to D rank monsters. Monsters were categorized the same way as adventures, F- rank to S rank. Except monsters had two more classes after S rank. A Behemoth class normally referred to as a SS Rank monster, which could take out a small city with an attack, and then there were the God Rank monsters normally referred to as a Demon Lord. They were the max evolved form of a monster that takes on a human form. Highly intelligent and can control all monsters to do his bidding. Basically, in order to take one of these down, you would need an army and a hero. 

Luckily no demon lords have been present in this world for almost one thousand years or so I have read in the books in the Ronstine library. In the game Magical Love, no such thing as a demon lord ever took precedence in the game. So I can only hope none will show up in my lifetime. 

We only got about five minutes inside the forest when we ran into a group of E rank monsters, Tinder wolves. They were fire attributed wolves that could spit fire at you from afar or use burning slash when attacking you with their claws. They were easy to kill if solo but these guys were pack hunters and always roamed in groups of fours or more.
