Vengeance of the Returner

It was a bright sunny day,

The sun burned fiercer and hotter than ever. A shirtless man with long messy hair that wholly concealed his face was meticulously training using a boulder near a pond that was amidst the trees of the forest. He was tall with a lean yet moderate built with broad shoulders. His body was ripped and muscular. His tanned olive skin tone glistened under the bright sunlight. His black facial hair seemed like it has not been shaved for a few days.

"Alright, I can't endure this anymore. Seems like this is the roadblock for me huh?" He muttered.

He was wholly drenched in sweat as he walked towards the pond and washed his face and hair.

"Hmm, Seems like I need to do something with my appearance." He mumbled while looking at his reflection.

'Alright, I think I can go back now...' He uttered in his mind while walking out off the pond nakedly.

DRACTON CITY,

"Commander Cinzia, someone is here to visit you." Said a woman in a maid costume.

"Hmm, Let them in." She replied.

A man in his early twenties walked inside her office.

'Nix?' She looked at him doubtfully.

He opened his mouth with a smile on his face.

"Hey, Cinzia wats up?"

Her face bloomed into a smile after getting a warm smile from him.

"I thought you probably died since You didn't contact me for four months after the last conversation with Felishia's communication crystal."

'You don't care about me huh?'

His facial expression turned grim and grew into laughter.

" Haha, You thought I ended up dead? I am disappointed in you...It's just that my communication gauntlet broke and I was unable to contact but, I am here now you see."

She scanned him head to toe. He was wearing a worn-out coat made with a random animal fur and trouser neglecting the fact he was barefooted.

"Anyway, what's up with your caveman appearance? You seem totally different from the last time I saw you... Do men grow after the age of eighteen?"

Ignoring her speech he peered through her office room and drifted his attention back to her. Her office room seems to be around four-fifty square feet. Neatly arranged books in the bookshelf behind her seat and a table in the center. It seems to be just like how a normal office would be.

"You picked up a nice clan house. What is the name of our clan and more importantly where is Felishia?"

"Hmm, She went to pick up some things and maps from a library for a quest."

Her expression saddened as she continued.

"I didn't get the clan approval, so I haven't named it. We will most probably get approved within a month if we succeed in the mission the Administrator assigns... Seriously, I feel like giving up on raising a clan."

Nix sighed.

"Hah, It's been eight months and they still haven't approved? Why would they delay it so much? "

"Hah, I am sorry for ranting like that even though you have just returned. First, freshen up we will talk about other things later," She said.

"Alright, You got spare rooms?"

"We don't have any spare rooms right now since members of our clan have occupied other rooms. So, Just use my room on the first floor."

"Can you show me the way?"

"Yeah, follow me." She said and walked out of her office and ascended the stairs. Nix peered at her sexy butt and licked his lips as they climbed the stairs.

As soon as she opened the room Nix pinned her on the wall and forced a kiss with her. Her cheeks were flushed red as she enthusiastically took the kiss.

"Nix can we do it later the clan members are around... " She said blushingly while looking up at him after breaking the kiss.

He didn't reply; he looked into her eyes and choked her and forced a kiss again and explored her internals with his tongue while she explored his. He slowly drew his hands towards her juicy butt and groped it while continuing to kiss her.

"Miss Cinzia..."

Suddenly a maid who walked inside the room stood in her place in a daze while looking at the spicy scene with a reddened face.

"Nix, let's do it at night..." She said after breaking the chain of foreplay.

He scratched his head.

"Alright, Then I will freshen up."

He removed his clothes and walked towards the bath without giving a damn about the maid and Cinzia.

He descended after doing an undercut hairstyle and clean shave on his own. His chiseled jawline and well-structured face made him look more attractive which was hidden by his hair. He seemed more mature and appealing than when he had long hair and a stubble beard although it was cooler and manlier in its own way.

He wore a white shirt with two open buttons on the top and folded sleeves with matching black trousers which were just his regular choice of casual attire.

Felishia and Cinzia seemed to be in a deep conversation as he walked inside the office.

"Hi dear!" Felishia greeted cheerfully and kissed his cheek.

"Uhm... How have you been?" He questioned Felishia while glancing at Cinzia who stared at the scene poutingly.

"I am fine, what about you? It's amazing to see that you made good progress after those eight months of training." Felishia said with a smile while embracing his arm.

"I am good. Thanks for helping us," He said looking down at her.

"It's fine, I am planning to make a quest on finding other Six relics of sins." She replied nonchalantly.

'I see, this woman is freaking sly as hell.' He thought with a grim facial expression.

"Six, there should be seven right?" He asked.

She giggled looking at his facial complexion.

"Hehe, Don't worry about it now. I just said I am planning. It's not like we will set out immediately. One relic is with Cinzia. Anyways, we were talking about the clan's approval. The city's administrator is currently worried about the city since many cities were captured by you Outsiders."

Hearing it he heaved out a sigh of relief.

"Hah, I see. So what's your plan next?"

"Hmm, Nothing... Zerast, Agenders, and other clans plus companies from the side of the regulars will also set out for searching relics soon, fortunately, I have the coordinates for finding them while others don't. We can pretty much set out without urging." She said.

"I don't know about those things but, I am quite relieved that we won't be going out all of a sudden." He said and drifted his attention towards Cinzia.

"What's our next move? I know we can't sit Idle but, It's kinda mysterious to think that Zerast didn't attack our clan."

"Hah, we are not even recognized as a clan in the first place and Zerast is not on good terms with the City's Ruling party. So, they are banished from entering. And Who said that they didn't send their pawns to attack. They did send some. The men they sent to track me down were killed by me as soon as I found out that they are from Zerast. This City is one of the strongholds ruled by the Royal Dynasty so, They can't obviously infiltrate it that easily." She explained.

Dracton city is one of the Three cities which is ruled by the Royal Dynasties. They cannot be compared with the cities under regulars and Outlaws because the three cities hold the majority of the lands. Ranrak is the weakest among the three ruling parties. Of all the other Royal rulers, Dracton is the only city that worships Corrupted gods.

Nix was banished from entering the cities ruled by those who worship gods of integrity. So, It was not a problem to enter a city ruled by the opposite party. Although it was an annoyance to just get inside the city walls after going through a nerve aching security check. Ranrak would be considered as a mere lackluster city with poor security compared to Dracton.contemporary romance

"I kind of get it. It's pretty much obvious if I think about the heavy checking they did in the entrance gate. So, how many clan members are there at the moment?"

"Fifteen...Five level three assassins and two people among the five are former thieves and three of them just worked as assassins and six warriors whose main job is working as bandits and three archers. One healer and three mages and one alchemist. If we add Felishia's crew then we got eighteen members."

"Thanks for explaining stuff..."

"Did you level up or somethin'? " She asked.

"Nah, I can't visit the church Of Al zalam. It's a tedious process until I finish the mission he gave."He said.

"Ohh, I see! so you are still level one then?"

"Yup... So, Can I see the members?"

'I need to destroy the Feroz khan and his clan members for that I need to raise a clan to fight his clan. Secondly, I need to use this clan to stir up a war in order to level up, and to do that I need to make more members join this clan, and Destroying Zerast with them will be the first I will do after getting acknowledgment.' He thought.

"Hmm, Can I meet with the members?"

"Yeah, I will assemble them in the hall for the meeting."

She turned and eyed at the maid to assemble the members of the clan. After everyone assembled he walked towards the hall and scanned them with his eyes.

'Hmm, six women and seven men, and then one beast kin and two elven women quite the number but I think this is low.' He mumbled inwardly.

Cinzia took her step first and parted her lips.

"This is Mister Nix who will be regarded as the head of this clan just like me. So, I hope you perceive what I am saying... He will be giving orders just like I do."

"Huh?" The crowd began to murmur among themselves since it was sudden.

Nix sighed and stepped in to begin his speech while facing the members.

"I am Nix, an associate of Cinzia..." He drifted his attention towards the elves and beast kin.

"And an associate of Felishia. I don't care if you don't think of me as your superior cuz I don't give a damn. and That's all about it," He said cooly.

"I like your style, Commander Nix"

It was a feminine voice from the crowd and another voice echoed followed by it.

"Haha, You come out of the blue and act like a big shot?"

Cinzia tried to say something Nix blocked her and peered through the group. A man and woman with dark blue hair who seems to siblings. Possibly the ones that commented on him.

The woman had multiple piercings on her ears and a nose piercing with a ponytail and few tattoos on her body. Who knows? maybe she could have tattoos in her covered areas too. Her brother was literally the same as her. Brown eyes, lean but fit physique, a buzz cut hairstyle, and weird tattoos on both of his arms.

He stared at the woman with a smile.

"I am glad and you..."

He drifted his attention to the guy next to her, Possibly her brother?

"I agree but, I don't think I am a big shot though. As I said, I don't care what you think..."

He said and drifted his attention back to Felishia.

"You brought other racial people along with you?"

"oh Yeah, Let me introduce them to you..." She said and eyed the elven women and the tiger kin.

They walked and stood before them.

"Hmm, I already instructed you right? This is that man," She said.

And the three of them bowed before him.

"Master, we look forward to serving you," They said in unison.

Nix looked at them with a flustered expression.

'Master? It cringes me...' He thought to himself.

"It's okay just be casual." He responded.

The others staring at the scenario began gossip within themselves.
