Chapter 44 - Cintra 37!

[Chapter Size: 1900 Words.]

Third Person POV

Northern kingdoms.

...

...

From the shadows within that place, the monster emerged; it was none other than a Shaelmaar, a beast from the territory of Toussaint, brought to the north by hunters. It was a rather resilient creature, due to its enormous shell covering its entire back. It was difficult to deal with as it began to roll...

"This monster..." Madara couldn't remember the name of the creature but saw the monster emerging as he prepared to attack it.

The monster initiated its roll while charging at Madara, while the slaves quickly ran away screaming in fear, having picked up some swords from the ground, but they were useless against that creature.

Madara performed a flip upwards at the last moment, avoiding the attack with that leap, while the people above the place watched intently.

"Incredible! He started the fight!" A noble exclaimed, putting aside the sight of countless people burning to death.

"Look how fast he is! He didn't do that in the fight!" Another person exclaimed, seeing a movement that Madara had not made at any point.

The creature continued rolling after passing by Madara and circled around the front of the arena, then started returning to Madara as its main target. Madara kicked the ground and a thrown sword flew into his hand as he prepared to face the monster.

As it came close, Madara again jumped into the air and tried to strike at the side; however, he hit the creature's shell, having no effect even though he infused his sword with chakra.

"He is tougher than I thought..." Madara murmured.

Madara quickly thought about what else he could do, looking at the arena's terrain. 'I remember Geralt in The Witcher 3 fighting this monster in a tournament...' He recalled the game and saw the walls encircling the place; he didn't have the telekinesis that the Witchers use, so he would have to use them.

Putting aside memories of the game, his gaze returned to the creature, which was not behind him, but chasing a group of slaves trying to escape; some tried to pass through the burning corridor where Madara had made an opening, and others went towards the walls in the corner trying to avoid the fight, as there was no way to go through the gate being extinguished by the guards.

The creature saw this and attempted to crush them. Madara ended up helping them, jumping into the air while running along the walls, leaving all the nobles there stunned with his skills as he landed in front of the people, beginning to make various hand seals.

"Fūton: Kabe!" Madara launched his latest jutsu, acquired through the system.

Then, his jutsu used jets of wind, creating a curtain that quickly became an air barrier rising upwards. The creature hit the barrier and it nullified its advance while it rose a bit in the air; it wasn't a hard barrier that would stun the creature, but it certainly managed to stop it from advancing.

It tried again and again failed to pass through the barrier. Everyone was surprised by this in their podiums, seeing that wind arise from nowhere after the boy made some strange hand movements.

"Wait, the boy is a mage!" They exclaimed. After all, that wind barrier was clearly visible to everyone.

Julian Rushford looked at this with a furrowed brow and turned his gaze back to Sir. Charles with a scorching look. "You could have mentioned that he was a mage the entire time..." He said with disdain.

"I didn't know he was a mage. He never performed any magic." Sir. Charles spoke reluctantly...

"You're saying this now after he burned my men, you idiot." Rushford growled.

"..." The royal guard didn't know what to respond, moreover, he had to finish with Madara tonight; the boy couldn't leave here alive with the information that he was working with some nobles even under his oath to the crown, if anyone found out, he would be in so much trouble that his life would end and his family couldn't even help him.

Meanwhile, in the fight, Madara looked at the slaves looking at him in fear. "Go, I'll handle this," he said, and the slaves began to run away as soon as the barrier ended.

The creature targeted Madara again, who was near the wall. He approached it, and just as the creature was about to roll into him again, Madara jumped with a push off the wall, flying behind the creature as it slammed into the wall with all its might. Madara watched satisfied; it was finally stunned, falling to the ground as its body was fully exposed. He then quickly spun around, charging with the momentum of gravity, ready to kill the creature with a single strike.

However, as he approached the creature, it quickly sensed the danger and began to roll, making Madara only touch the ground as it moved away. It turned its body in the middle of the arena and began running back toward Madara, who sighed, seeing that the people were finally exiting, and decided to act with a fire jutsu.

He quickly made a series of seals while everyone watched every detail of Madara, "He's doing that strange thing again!" A noble shouted when he saw Madara was about to perform his "Magic."

"What kind of magic will he be doing?!" Another exclaimed.

But then, after taking a deep breath, Madara launched at the creature, spitting flames at it with his first jutsu acquired in this world, making everyone incredulous at what they were witnessing.

"He can spit flames, what is this boy..." They could not help but exclaim, while the creature, engulfed in flames, moved towards Madara and began to slow down, trying to cover its body more from the fire surrounding it.

Madara quickly approached and made a series of seals, performing the wind jutsu again above the creature, lifting it from below upwards, sending it flying into the air above the flames.

"Now it's vulnerable..." Madara thought as he quickly jumped behind it, aiming for its vulnerable side.

He advanced with his sword, easily cutting through the exposed skin while wielding chakra in the blade to be more efficient. His first cut made the creature scream in the air, but it tried to retaliate while twisting its body. As Madara again placed his hand on its shell to steady himself, he dodged the attack going to the other side, cutting it again at another vulnerable spot at that very instant.

Madara was so fast that no one there could really see what happened; they only saw a child essentially walking around the creature in the air as it screamed and he stabbed it, getting covered in blood. After all, even he couldn't avoid getting bloodied in that position.

The creature fell screaming with the wind jutsu finished, while its body was enveloped in flames again on the ground, the wind jutsu above the flames seeming to have fueled the flames even more.

As for Madara, he landed on the other side after having kicked the creature when he had stabbed it enough, performing a backflip and landing outside the flames.

As for the creature, it didn't seem to have a good fate after being involved with the flames, screaming in agony, which stopped after a while due to its death.

The place became silent at this moment, with only the flames in the middle of the arena making flaming sounds.

"I saw that boy destroy a monster..." A noble commented dazedly.

"He... Used magic!! He's a mage!" Another woman exclaimed.

"A mage at that age?! Impossible, my father knew one, and it takes decades to become one!" Another spoke.

"You fool, mages don't age! This boy is not a child, he must be decades old!" Another tried to argue.

"This was much worse than I imagined... That's why he asked me to put the boy in the place, now it makes sense..." Lord Rushford had had a conversation with that mage through a magical artifact, now it made sense why the mage wanted this boy above all else, even interrupting the rest of the child trade from the city.

"We have to kill him, Lord Rushford!" Sir Charles spoke immediately.

"Calm down you fool. There's someone who wants the boy, despite wanting him alive, he still accepted my suggestion to put him in the arena against the creature... he must be watching this fight from somewhere..." Rushford couldn't help but comment and began to stand up.

While everyone was still silent and whispering, the most important noble in the place immediately shouted, "Guards, guards! Arrest him!" As soon as he commanded, all areas of the arena began to open with armed men entering the area. Madara could have killed about 10 of them, but there were still about 30, while Madara was in the center being surrounded by all those men.

Madara seemed calm, as if this was quite predictable. He looked towards young Rushford and Sir. Charles, surrounded by their group.

"Your name is Madara Uchiha." Lord Rushford began, while many seemed very surprised by this name. After all, there was a rumor of a Madara Uchiha appearing out of nowhere and being welcomed in the royal castle, so this name shocked many people there.

Julian continued. "Now I know why that mage really wants you, child, you are indeed special, but I have already told him about you tonight. Soon our friend will come here to fetch you," he declared with a victorious smile.

"You speak as if these 30 guards could stop me and tell me..." Madara spoke with a dangerous tone. "What's to stop me from setting all of you on fire right here?" He stated the obvious.

This left the atmosphere heavy and full of tension, realizing the danger this mage boy could pose. "Hey, he could kill us!" Someone exclaimed the obvious again, realizing this.

People quickly started to become nervous and tried to leave the place. "No one will leave here!" exclaimed Lord Rushford with a severe tone to all the podiums. "He won't be able to do it, soon our mage with the drugs will come and all we need to do is hand over this boy!" He spoke, believing that Madara wouldn't do such a thing.

"You are mistaken, Lord Rushford..." Madara spoke calmly in front of everyone with his eyes closed at that moment. "You are doomed, and I indeed intend to kill you. And then I will kill that mage." He spoke as he opened his eyes, showing his Sharingan to all the nobles.

The night was just beginning, before anyone could react, he took his kunai, one of the two he had in his clothing that he brought from the castle, and threw it directly at Lord Rushford, who was surprised by this, but the Kunai struck the sword of Sir. Charles.

Lord Rushford fell backwards, almost having his head pierced, and immediately began to scream. "Catch him!" He exclaimed, not as confidently as before.

As soon as the guards advanced towards Madara, the nobles no longer had the courage to stay there and began to run. However, amidst all this, an explosion occurred at the entrance, and Mousesack with Eist finally began to act.
