Chapter 6 - This Is Totally Fine!

Leaves exploded into the air.

Someone crashed Straight into Markil's chest.

"Huh!!'

Warm body slammed into him.

The faint scent of leaves and sunlight then arms clutching him desperately.

"I am sorry! I am sorry!"atrembling voice cried.

"I have to run!"

Markil froze.

A elf stood pressed against him,tears streaming down her face.She looked about 18 years old,Maybe a little older. Long white hair hair shimmered like moon light, ears sharp and elegant,green eyes,she wore white and golden robes.

"Wait!!"

She turned, panicked, trying to run away.

SHINK!!

Before Markil could think.

FLASH!

The world turned blur.

Markil reappeared of half away, two fingers raised.

The knife stopped.

Pinched perfectly between his two fingers.

"Eh!" The elf gasped.

Markil stared at his own hand.

"What the" Markil thought.

The knife trembled between his two fingers.

"What the hell, I didn't even think,My body just moved." Markil thought.

He slowly set the elf girl down behind him.

"Stay behind me!" He said without looking back.

His voice even surprised himself.

From the tree,eight men stepped out.

Leather armour,scarred faces,swords drawn.

Blood stained from the edges of their swords.

The elf girl'sstartedbreath hitched.

"Those swords...!" She whispered.

Markil noticed it too.

"They have already killed someone." Markil thought.

A man stepped forwardtall,broad,confidence dripping from every movement.

He carried a golden And red greatsword, resting casually on his shoulder.

"Well now!" He grinned.

"This is a unusual place for a human boy to be wandering."

Markil Swallowed.

"Don't panic! Don't panic, I don't want to die again please god." Markil thought.

He forced a crooked smile.

"Funny," Markil replied.

"I was thinking the same thing. Isn't it unusual for humans like you to be hunting elves?"

The bandit laughed.

"Ay boy, don't ask too many questions.

Curiosity cost is money here."

Markil's heart pounded.

"Shit. He is stong. That sword, he is not normal."

Behind him,the elf tugged weekly at his clothes.

"Mister please,"she said softly.

"They won't me, You can leave. Please I don't want you to get hurt."

Markil clinched his fists.

The bandit leader smirked and started walking forward.

"Name's Heedio Cass," he said lazily.

"Former C rank knight.If you would try to fight me,You'd be already dead."

He stopped in front of the elf girl and leaned down.

"Pretty thing like you shouldn't be running alone."

His hand reached out.

The elf flenched.

"No-!"

Something snapped.

"Why does injustice exist here too? Why does everyone has people like this?"

"Why...why!"

Markil's thoughts raced.

Suddenly Markil remembers the sight were his aura was brusted and all knights got unconscious by his Aura.

"That Aura... It only came out when I was afraid. Angry. Desperate.

I can't control it."

His feet moved anyway.

BOOOOOOOM!!

The air shattered.

Markil's fisr connected.

For a single second -silence.

The bandit leader's had was gone.

Blood was spreading from his body like a fountain. Bone shattered. The shockwave cracked the ground beneath them like a glass.

The headless body collapsed.

The remaining bandits froze.

"Monster...!"

Black and blue light erupted from Markil's body like storm.

The pressure crushed the air.

Bandits screamed and dropped one by one, Unconscious before they hit the ground.

The elf girl stared in shock.

Her knees buckled.

"H he..."

Her vision went dark.

She collapsed too.

The aura faded.

Markil stood there, breathing heavily, staring at his trembling hand.

"I did it..." Markil thought with confusion.

He looked at his body.

Then at the elf girl.

Then at the unconscious men that were around him.

His voice cracked.

"What the fuck! How the hell this happened."

Markil said to himself.

"I was not thinking to fight them.So, why my body moved all of a sudden."

"What am I becoming." Markil thought.

"These bandits wanted to kill this girl maybe I should..." Markil thought.

Markil frozen for 3 seconds.

Then-

"Oh shit."

He bent down, scooped the unconscious elf girl into his arms and...

BOOOM!

The ground exploded under his feet.

Trees bent backward.Dirt and stone cracked outward like spiderwebs.

Markil vanished.

Somewhere Else - 3 Km Away.

Boom!

The earth cracked again.

Markil skidded across the ground, barely managing to stop himself before crashing head first into tree.

"Hah_hah!"

He looked around.

No bandits.

No battlefield.

Just the forest.

Silence.

"Three seconds ago I was there."

He blinked.

"I'm here!"

He look down at his arms.

The elf girl was still there. Light as feather, breathing softly.

"How far did I just run?!"

Markil slowly turned his head back.

The forest stretched endlessly.

"Noo way."

He swallowed.

"No.No.No"

Markil took a single step forward.

The got ground cracked under Markil's feet.

"Hey!"

He jumped back.

"What the hell is wrong with my legs!"

He stared at his legs like they have personally betrayed.

"Did I seriously just ran kilometres like it was nothing?"

He looked at unconscious elf girl.

"Should I ask her?" Markil thought.

He paused.

"She is Unconscious."

He sighed.

"Right.Minor detail."

Markil carefully placed her down against a tree. Making sure her head rusted comfortbly.

"Okay.calm down.Calm down,Markil."

He rubbed his face.

"This is fine."

"This is totally fine."

"I died once.Got a new body. Fell from the sky. Stopped a war by existing. Punching a man's head off.Ran 3 km in a single step." Markil said to himself.

"Normal Tuesday."

He laughed.

"Am I mad...?!"

You look at the elf girl again.

"She's real."

He pinched his own arm.

"Ow!"

"Still hurts..."

Markil slumped beside her.

"I was fucking dead," he muttered.

"Train,Smach,End!"

He pointed at himself.

"And now I am here like nothing happens!"

He looked up at the sky through leaves.

"If this is a dream, My brain needs therapy."

Markil glanced at the elf girl again.

"If I try to explain these things to this elf girl, she'll think that I am insane but I guess I am really insane."

He imagined it.

"Hi,I'm Markil. I died in another world, raincarnated, and accidentally crushed several armies with my aura."

"...hell...noo I can't tell this to her!"

He sighed deeply.

"But this isn't madness, it's real."

Markil clenched his fists.

"I felt it. The speed,the power." Markil thought.

He stared at his hands.

"This is real."

"So what do I do now, I am getting frustrated?" Markil thoughtout of frustration.

The elf girl stirred slightly. Thenwent still again.

Markil panicked.

"Hey! don't die on me!"

He leaned closer.

"Okay.Stil breathing."

He relaxed.

"Don't scare me! Like that,I have a weak heart."

He rested back against the tree again.

"I guess I'll wait for now."
