Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 14: Tattoo

Nix felt like he was struck by lightning.

'What?'

His total future was doomed in an instant. He was swallowed by fear, and he didn't know anything about the world and how things work here.

"What? I didn't do anything wrong? Why am I considered an outlaw?"

{ Mr.Nix you will not gain a class as you are not recognized as an Outsider. You have one day to get out of the city If you don't. You will be punished.}

After finishing the sentence, she immediately vanished from there. Other survivors and Instructors in the hall were dazzled.

'Why?'

Nix was getting frustrated.

He felt helpless as he sat down on the floor feeling helpless and broke down. while his survival mates and Reegan tried to talk with him. He didn't utter a word. He was drenched in sweat and his body was trembling in fear. He sat calmly while running various thoughts on his mind. He just sat there like a statue for a while.

Suddenly a group of people barged into the hall with a spear in their hands and their armors all looked uniform with a golden Trident engraved on their back.

"Is there someone Named Nix here?'

A soldier questioned and some people pointed their hands towards Nix.

They surrounded Nix and pointed their spears at him.

"Mr. Nix hand over your weapons and combat suit now!"

A feminine heard from the group of soldiers who entered the hall. Soon a sound of footsteps approaching was heard while the soldiers paved their way for a tall knight in white armor wearing a helmet and there was a trident symbol on the back of the armor just like the soldiers. At first glance, Nix could understand that it was this female knight that ordered him to hand over his possessions.

She got close to him. Nix couldn't do anything while she was observing him.

The knight took her hand towards her lower part of her helmet and placed her hand on it like keeping her hand on her chin.

"Hmm, you don't look like someone powerful enough to be exiled... When I look close to you don't look that dangerous...."

and continued.

"Well, you are going to be outcasted from the city walls by tomorrow morning and I have received an order to keep watch on you until you get your ass out of the city."

He looked at her in a daze and the pressure she was exerting was immense.

She sighed.

"hah! This is such a dumb mission! Is your potential that dangerous? you are even getting exiled without even gaining a class and even Angels strictly insisted the king of Ranrak to exile you..."

" "

Nix just gazed straight towards her with anger. He didn't cause any problem neither was he a murderer or a criminal and this woman was acting rudely towards him.

"Well, I guess you don't want to speak. No worries! I hope to see you again that is if you survive all the ordeal and with those restrictions that have been placed upon. you can't even enter a city ruled by Royal families but, I think you may get strong. if you get some Outlaw friends your situations may change."

" "

'How I am supposed to survive this damned world?'

His mind was all jumbled up and he was in fear and anger.

"I can see it in your eyes you will surely become a bigggg baddd guyyyy and surely you will come back to take revenge. When you come back let's have a dual Mr. Nix The enemy of Ranrak. "

Making her two fingers into a v making a peace symbol by tilting her head a bit if she wasn't wearing a helmet he could have seen her facial expression that is if she is really trying to act playful and cute.

"Now chain him and take him to his room."

A soldier came to chain him.

It was then.

The black eye-patched instructor Bageran intervened who was quiet all this time puffing his cigarette.

"Knight Rebecca, wait he didn't do anything wrong to be handcuffed or chained he will obey the orders."

He turned his head towards Nix "won't you kid?"

Nix nodded his head in agreement because he didn't have any other choice.

Nagendra, Reegan, Sonali, and Shreya, and all the other people were in a daze since they couldn't fathom this situation.

Nagendra walked towards the soldiers.

"Can everybody please lower your weapons? He is not someone who would cause problems and I think this is a misunderstanding, Madam Knight."

"yes I think the same"

" yes, Mam I think it is a misunderstanding."

and Reegan, Sonali, Shreya, and everybody tried to stop them.

The female knight started talking.

"Now-Now he still has time until morning why not talk to him after he gets to his room and this is a royal order. So whoever gets to the out law's side will be declared as an outlaw too. Now soldiers confiscate his weapons."

In the end, no one was able to stop him from getting exiled.

Bageran Started talking.

"Knight Rebecca is confiscating his weapons mentioned in the order? Can't the kid at least take a single weapon with him?"

"yes"

"But answer me this, can you survive without any weapon or armor? can you defend yourself without even any prior training?"

"No"

"Then how are you supposed to expect him to go without a weapon? You have been ordered to send him out of the city, but they didn't order to execute him, so I think it is not bad to give him a single weapon at the least."

"Well, Certainly I can't refuse the suggestion of the director of Black vipers company."

Bageran walked towards Nix and slipped two coins in his shirt pocket and patted his shoulder and walked off with a smirk.

'?'

Bageran came close towards Nix and opened his mouth in a low voice

"Boy remember this, you owe me"

He left him after that.

Soon Nix got to his room escorted by the soldiers. Reegan was the first one who came in but he didn't utter a word he started to pack his things in a hurry.

'Why is he packing his things?'

With a thought, Nix opened his mouth.

"What are you doing? Why are you packing your things?"

"Bro we are getting out of the city why wouldn't I pack my things?"

"Why would you get out with me? You know It is hopeless right? I don't have the so-called bright future that you envisioned when you decided to follow me."

"Seriously bro? As I said before I want to follow you and I got Assassin as my class now plus. Even the Royal Dynasty of the city and angels are in fear of your Frightening potential and I want some Thrill in life which I always strived for when I lived on earth."

"whatever it is your choice."

Shreya, Sonali, and Nagendra came into his room with sad faces, they couldn't say anything and they can't just go with him.

If they get Declared as outlaws their Life in Empyrean will be doomed for good. so, they just tried to boost his morale up which didn't work out the way they expected it to.

He understood one simple thing people are selfish and only follow you when they find you beneficial and it is not a wrong thing because he would have done the same.

SFX: knock! knock!

Suddenly loud knocks started to come from the door. Nix went towards the door and opened it and found two soldiers waiting for him.

"Mr.Nix we want you to come along."

"To where?"

"You will know it later please don't resist,"

He got handcuffed, he quietly followed the soldiers. After a two-minute walk, they went to the cafeteria's backside where the kitchen was and a long-haired blonde woman was heating some metal stick she was wearing the same armor which she had in the morning in the hall when he looked at her face he was amazed by her beauty. She had a flawless Milky white skin, and grey eyes suiting her tied up hair.

She smiled as he arrived.

"Ah, Mister Nix I was waiting for you. Soldiers remove his shirt and grab him tightly."

The two Soldiers grabbed him from the sides and removed his shirt.

"what? Why? Stop What are you going to do?"

Knight Rebecca took the metal which was in a weird shape like it was used as a stamp And the metal was glowing red and green and it was emitting extreme heat. she walked towards him with a smile.

"Ahhh Look at your skinny body. Try to work out more Mister Nix... Soldiers turn him around."

They turned him around making his back visible to her.

'What did I do wrong to deserve this?'

She placed the Stamp on Nix's back.

Just as he was in thought.

"ahhhhhhhhahhhh"

Nix was screaming as his back made him feel like his whole body was literally burning.

"Mister Nix it will be alright after a week."

"Stopppp! ahahhhh"

He was screaming in pain after two minutes she took it back from his skin and threw it in a water-filled volley.

Nix, who was relieved from the pain, saw the messages on the Air.

[You have been Tattooed as an Outlaw]

[You are now recognized as an outlaw]

[You are now in the Outlaw faction]

"Soldiers release him."

As soon as they let him free, he rushed towards Rebecca recklessly and tried to punch her face. She simply moved sideways and Punched his stomach.

"kuekk"

Nix grunted and fell on his knees and spat blood on the floor and then gazed up at her angrily.

"hah, you are cool Mister Nix. I look forward to our next confrontation until then try to become stronger. Here is a small piece of advice don't try to act reckless but your fiery gaze makes you real hot though."

After finishing the sentence, she winked at him.

Soldiers handcuffed him and took him to his room. Nix first wanted to check what the tattoo was so he stood before a mirror facing backward and tried to see it.

It was a big ass tattoo partially covering his back. The symbol was a skull with two horns on it.

'Fuck!'

In a bad mood, he went to his bed and closed his eyes.
