"It's you again, huh? Why is a demi-human like you interfering? Also, if you're a Player, then you can't even touch us! Do you think you have the right to threaten us?!" Asked Adman angrily, pointing his finger at me.
"I can't touch you?" I asked, grabbing his finger and twisting it up.
CRACK!
"Huh?"
Adman glanced at his broken finger before he realized what had just happened.
"GRYYAAAAHH!"
And then he screamed in agony, making an even bigger commotion around the entire area. Ambil glanced at me in shock.
"P-Planta! Why did you…?!" Ambil muttered. "They might not be nobles, but they have a lot of connections with them!"
"And you think I would let you hurt them instead? Your reputation can't get any lower, leave this to me." I gave him a confident smile.
"Leave this to you?! What will I EVEN leave to you?!" Ambil complained, as the siblings cried.
"Y-You…! You monster! How dare you hurt our brother?!" Cassim cried.
"You aberration!" Helpes cried.
"Don't worry." I smiled, waving my hand, an aura of light covered the pathetic Adman, his finger quickly recovering. "He's fine, see?"
"E-Eh? My finger has recovered…?!"
Adman and the other two siblings were left absolutely speechless. He quickly stood back up, glaring at me with a pissed off stare.
"T-This…! Are you implying you're going to take the blunt of what Ambil has done now, woman?!" Adman asked. "What do you think you can even do? You don't even live in this country! He has no choice now, either he gives us the place and sell it to us, or we'll take away everything he has anyways! We're simply trying to be merciful of him by buying it off."
"He simply can't sell his property." I answered. "And if the problem has to do with the Merchant and Blacksmith Guilds Licenses, then we'll resolve it ourselves, you don't have to put your noses where they don't belong!"
"Heheh, don't you understand? Even if you go to the guilds personally, they already know what has happened!" Laughed Adman. "They will immediately terminate his licenses!"
"Is that true?" I asked Ambil, the man sighed, looking down.
"Tch, they're not wrong." Ambil said. "To be a Blacksmith, sell your products, own a Smithy, and also a Shop to sell the products, needs two Licenses, the Merchant Guild and the Blacksmith Guild… However, to keep the licenses, I need to pay a monthly fee and also complete their requests, which I've not done in years. My Rank, which was originally as high as S Rank, went down all the way to G-, the lowest Rank… The debt I paid was for the fees I owed, but it seems that their Guild masters have colluded with them and have decided to terminate me no matter what using that as an excuse. I cannot fight, they're the law…"
"But isn't there someone even higher in this hierarchy?" I wondered. "Someone that asked you yesterday to bring him products?"
"T-The King? But why would he want to help me?!" Ambil asked in disbelief.
"He might want to help you if we show him what you're capable of!" I smiled. "So?"
"You're saying the King would help you?" Laughed the three brothers.
"You're being delusional!"
"Why would his majesty even do that!"
"You'll see." I glared at them with a calm anger, quickly sending shivers down their spine. "You're coming with us too, bring your best products. So you can show the King you're much better than Ambil! How about it?"
"What?"
"Is she serious?"
"…Very well."
Adman, their leader, nodded, quickly realizing that he would be greatly benefited if he left Ambil ridiculed in front of the King. Like this, I managed to involve these idiots into my little scheme.
"Planta, what are you planning to do?" Asked Ambil, confused.
"Nothing too much. Simply bring the best you've made so far." I gave him a wink. "An armor, an accessory, and a weapon should do. Both a staff and a physical weapon."
"O-Okay…" Ambil ended agreeing at the end, perhaps my high Charisma Stat made my words much more convincing too.
"So we're going with the King right away?" Mark wondered, as Ambil packed things.
"Yep. That's the plan." I nodded. "Angelina is coming here right away, and David just reported me through a telepathic message that he's coming."
"He can send telepathic messages?" Mark wondered, rising an eyebrow.
"Ahaha, no, that's the Queen, she told David after I sent her one. She created like a "telepathic channel" where we can send messages to one another." I said.
"S-She's really overpowered." Mark said. "She kind of reminds me of someone, but I can't quite remember who."
"Ah well, yeah… I wonder who it could be…" I said.
I wanted to tell Mark too, but she told me to keep this a secret even from them for now, maybe because it would be complicated to explain.
"I guess you'll tell me when you feel ready." He crossed his arms, immediately realizing I knew!
"Y-You're quite sharp…" I laughed a bit nervously.
"Haha, I just know your face expressions." Mark giggled. "Anyways, what are you doing?"
I was touching the ground right in front of the Smithy while channeling my Mana, Spirit Energy, and my new power, Celestial Energy.
FLAAASH!
The Halo in my real body suddenly emerged above my head temporarily, as I activated the special ability imbued into it thanks to the Title that Heaven gifted me.
"[Divine Ward]: [Holy Fortress]!"
FLUOOOOSH!
A massive wave of golden and white light surged from my hands, for a moment, my aura shaped into two big, feathered wings, as the Angelic Runes materialized into the Magic Array I created.
Or well, the Divine War, a special type of Magic Array that Guardian Angels can create, which allows them for the ability to create and customize Wards, Barriers, and similar things with ease.
An invisible fortress made of light emerged around Ambil's Smithy, leaving it safe and secure from any bastard that might try breaking in without permission.
Ding!
[You've used an otherworldly power to create a new Magic Array!]
[You've created the [Divine Ward]: [Holy Fortress]!]
[For the next 24 Hours, uninvited guests won't be allowed to enter the Holy Fortress.]
[By having created an infallible and mighty Barrier, you've acquired the [Beginner Barrier Creator] [Intermediate Barrier Maker] and [Barrier Master] Titles!]
