As soon as Ray collected the coins the large man fell to the ground in shock, Ray who was standing a few meters away from him was now in front of him, he moved so fast none of them could follow his movement with their eyes.
Ray collected the coins and slowly walked away from the large man, he walked with such confidence that the other men couldn't help but stare at him as he walked away.
"Fire" one of the men snapped of out shock and shouted before brandishing his weapon.
"I don't have to kill you..."
>SWOOSH!!<
Two arrows came out of nowhere traveling at an amazing speed, even Ray could tell they were infused with Ki meaning all the bandits were likely knights of one of the kingdoms but still, they were nowhere near him.
Ray caught both of the Ki-Infused arrows with his bare hands shocking both the archers and the men running towards him but they didn't stop, even though they had seen Ray's prowess they believe they could use their number to their advantage.
"You bastard..." one of the men yelled as Ray was within his strike range, he quickly swung his sword without a second thought Infusing as much Ki as he can to increase both the speed and power of the strike.
>CLANG!!<
A loud clanging sound echoed along with a small sparkle, the man's sword was blocked by two small weapons, the man wasn't sure if they were supposed to be spears or swords, they had a spear like tip but they were the same length as an ordinary sword or maybe even smaller.
"Amusing, you made me draw my weapons but this is the end of you" Ray shouted and his voice echoed in the skulls of the remaining men.
They immediately began sweating even though the battle hasn't started, the Aura from Ray was even more than that of a Royal knight, the archers at the top of the trees were paralyzed in fear but the men around Ray mustered enough courage to charge towards him, the first man who attacked him jumped backward as all seven of them charged toward Ray.
"Such courage even after a displayed my powers, these are real knights...wait real knights" Ray mumbled as certain memories flooded his brain.
Most of the memories were still fuzzy but he knew for such it had to do with the knight academy he woke up earlier.
"He's not even paying attention to us"
"You would regret this bastard" the men spoke as they Infused Ki in their weapons and struck.
Ray's mind was still flooded with memories he knew nothing about but he was able to react fast enough to block six of their attacks and dodge the last attack but he wasn't able to dodge the attack completely as the sword drew blood from his back.
Ray bent his knees as little and used his blood spear to push six of the attacker backward and quickly turned around to face the last man but he already jumped backward to create space.
"He's not that powerful, we should attack together, hey big guy quit slacking off and join us, we're taking him down"
The large man was already up and now he walked towards his comrades to attack Ray.
"Archers what are you guys doing" one of the men shouted, now both of the archers were on the ground but they were still hidden in the bushes.
After their first attack both of them knew Ray was aware of their location so they switched and carefully climbed down from the tree, now they were waiting for the opportunity to strike.
Ray stood there with his hands on his head and his eyes closed, somehow he knew they were using Ki in their attacks, he knew they were knights, he knew he was a knight but what happened.
The men readied themselves once again and prepared to strike but Ray screamed surprising all of them.
"Aaarrrgh..." Ray shouted with all the strength he could muster, he was missing something from these memories he was seeing but he didn't know what he was missing and he was beyond angry and finally his eyes laid on the opponents in front of him.
"Humans..." Ray mouthed and in an instant, he was in front of the first man.
>SQUELCH!!<
Before the man or any of them could react blood was already dripping from the man's stomach and Ray's spear.
Ray pierced the man's stomach till the tip of the spear was sticking out of the man's back, immediately the man coughed out blood and his sword fell from his hand.
The others immediately infused Ki in their legs and jumped away from Ray but out of all seven that jumped, only four of them landed away from the dead body.
The four of them who jumped away jaws dropped as they stare at the sight in front of them, 3 of their men were headless with Ray standing in front of them, all three of their heads rolled on the floor and the ground was drenched in blood.
"None of you are going to escape alive" Ray spoke and immediately the archers whose location was unknown quickly dashed away from the scene afraid of dying.
Ray turned to the side and launched one of his blood spears toward one of the archers, "Extend" he mumbled and his blood spear increased in size and traveled at lightning speed.
The archer felt a sharp pain in his back and immediately he was raised from the ground by a strange force till he collided with a tree.
Ray's blood spear pierced the archer and pinned him to one of the trees around till he slowly bleed to death, the second archer was a female who kept running without looking back.
The four of them couldn't believe what was happening, they were no match for Ray and now that they knew, it was already too late.
