~014 Leaving The Blue Wind Town
Davi was pleasantly shocked.
The might of the Hell Of Torment could not be underestimated.
In Fact after the first night of cultivation he was certain that describing the Nine Hells Scripture as 'godly' would be a huge understatement.
Anyone looking at the two twins right now would think that they both underwent a huge transformation.
While there wasn't any massive change in their appearances, both Davi and Russell maintained their respective raven dark hair, as well as dark eyes but right now.
Their skin had a huge difference.
Even though it could be said the had not had their baths for the past three days if not more because of their poverty and the fact that they are living in the slums.
Naturally, you would develop a foul odor extremely unpleasing to anyone even yourself.
But right now, not only did Davi and Russell lack such smell, in fact the smelled rather pleasing.
All previous scars or injuries or anything you could think of that may have affected their skin in the past was gone.
The skin glowed like someone who had just received a spa treatment, this was just how powerful this nen energy is.
After a brief analysis, Davi concluded that even the purest saint force back in his world cannot be compared to a the nen energy around the slums of Area 4 which was polluted and not in its purest form.
As soon as the last drop of Asura Qi was absorbed into his body while he was having the breakfast Russlll got the previous night, a buzz of notifications came from the system.
[Ding!]
[Host has levelled up!]
[+1 Exp point]
[+1 Exp point]
[+1 Exp point]
[+1 Exp point…]
[Host authority has reason form lv.2>lv.3]
After and endless buzz he realized that he had gained a total of 16 Exp points from this he gould deduce that he only managed to condence 10 drops of pure Asura Qi.
~Sigh.
However before he could ask the system to open his interface, Russell spoke.
"Brother… Lets get going!"
"Ok… Lead the way" Davi responded.
Retrieving his staff (which to Davi, was the only valuable he had) and Russell retrieving his leather pouch the twins set of to meet with old man Frank.
***
"I almost thought you boys would not make it eeh!"
"You kept this old man waiting for almost an hour… Now we must hurry the caravan would soon depart for the Blue Sky Kingdom" Old man Frank said enthusiastically as he sighted Davi and Russell walking from a distance.
A smile formed across his lips, to him these two bothers where like his own sons… Why else would he agree to pay for them and bring them all the way to the capital?
"Sorry we kept you waiting old man" Russell said apologetically.
"Hahaha… Its alright I already anticipated this delay from the both of you
Now we need to make haste… The journey can be quite dangerous" With that The old man led them and three of them made their way to their caravan where they will board to the capital.
Coincidentally, the caravan that the old man paid for was going to be guarded by the red rock mercenary group.
Russell immediately sighted Jin amongst other mercenaries he immediately narrowed his eyes, already not having a good impression of the magic acolyte from their previous meeting.
The old man noticing the tension in the air quickly brought out three tokens that served as a form of identification showing that the had made payment.
Soon the boarding process ended and the caravan slowly departed from the blue wind town.
All these while, the Magic acolyte never stopped staring at Russell and Davi… Even the old man found it weird.
Still he never said a word and calmly meditated along the journey.
Jin on the other hand felt something was different especially with Russell while he could not notice much from Davi, the same could not be said for Russell.
As an awakened it would be a lie if he said he could not feel nen energy.
It wasn't that he felt anything from the twins but he felt something was definitely different, he just couldn't place how.
Davi was oblivious to what was happening, at this point you would say that blindness is a bliss.
***
It was already two hours into the journey and they had already passed five similar towns just like the Blue wind town.
During this time, Davi opened the interface again.

[Mission Available: 1]
After confirming that nothing was amiss he closed the system, completely missing that the Mission Available has changed from 0>1
Davi was about to start cultivating the system rang out.

[Rewards: Windcaller, +20 Exp points, +15 Asura points, +10 Soul points]
[Deadline: 9 hours… 7 hours left!]
Davi's jaw dropped at this sight.
He was certain that at this point the 'system' was out to take his life, lets not talk about task one and task two… But task three?!
"Is the system insane? How I am supposed to kill someone I cannot see?
More so I should do so within 7 hours? Is that even humanly possible?" Davi was so frustrated.
The more he thought about it, the more his dispair grew… There is absolutely no way for him to survive… or so he thought.
"Besides what has Jin done to offend me?" Davi thought completely forgetting the trash talk he said the other day.
Just then the system spoke.
[DEATH IS THE ONLY PUNISHMENT TO ANYONE WHO CARRIES ILL WILL TOWARDS THE BEARER OF THE ASURA!]
Sucking in a breath of cold air, a cold look flashed past Davi's eyes but he quickly regained his composure.
Remembering the events of the previous encounter, anger and rage began growing in Davi.
The subject for this change was completely oblivious to this as he continued to watch the surroundings for any unsuspecting danger around the caravan.
Suppressing his rage he asked the system.
"How am I supposed to complete these task when I cannot see?" In as much as he wanted to compete the mission now more than ever, he still know that it wont be possible without his sight.
[I had no idea that Host is such a fool!]
Davi's eyebrow's twitched as he heard this… "how is he a fool for asking a perfecly sensible question?" He thought.
[Host obtained the First Part of the Nine Hells Scripture and he has a staff, that in itself is enough to complete all tasks!]
Puzzled, Davi asked "How?"
[The same way host tempered host's skin with the technique host can use the same method to strengthen host's ear or any other body part host deems necessary and with the staff it should be more than enough to complete the task assigned!]
"How do I do that?" Davi asked clearly still confused.
Strengthening his ear is understandable but his staff? It made absolutely no sense… can he even kill with such an ordinary wood?
[Host should figure out the rest]
As he heard the response of the 'system' a look of horror befell his face.
Immediately he heard it.
"SCREEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!"
The Earth fanged rats had finally attacked their caravan which at the same time marked the beginning of his second mission!
