The scouts were deployed in the borders. Having to hunt monsters to become food or either if not edible then they would just kill them for safety.
It was a bright morning and all were energetic. They have one role and that was to eliminate the threats in the borders of their realm.
Kenny lead their team with outmost vibrance and energy. Having to become a vassal was one reason. He could imagine that his strength has multiplied by few times.
Also he did got a new skill. Called [Vitality], [Scouting] and [Slow Stamina Regeneration]. Vitality gave high health points and Slow Stamina Regeneration gave an ample stamina to last for a fight and still up. His Scouting skill made him see and sense life nearby and could see tracks. With that skills, it made him a resilient fighter in the battlefield and a good scout.
They were scouting and expanding their territory for now and they could harvest herbs too while on the way. Scanning the vicinity with potential threats to the village.
Kenny was alert and could see that they were safe. But suddenly, he detected monster life forms. They saw several men in the north side and they were being chased.
"Team! Let's rescue them!" Their leader Kenny shouted.
"Aye sir!" They immediately dashed and then intercepted them.
They immediately saw the ones being chased and they were humans in warrior outfit. Plate armors on their bodies and has a clothing of red. They were being chased by none other than monsters called ogres.
"Wait!? Ogres? How come they were here?" Asked Khalid, his second hand.
"Yup, strange, and warriors? Why are they here?" They asked Kenny.
"Let's ask questions later, for now we have some rescuing to do." Kenny replied with authority.
"Yes captain!" They replied.
They saw the Warrior leader attacked and repelled the two handed sword of the ogre. Others had metallic clubs and then they smashed it to him. Making him to grit his teeth to such strength.
The other warriors were surrounded and they were attacked. Making them to block their escape route and made them pinned.
The ogres attacked and they immediately clashed with their weapons. The warriors were heavily exhausted and they were barely able to keep the ogres at bay.
Their situation dire and hopeless. Only the leader of the warrior tribe was able and could be toe to toe with them. The others were not in the right capability to defend themselves.
The warrior leader roared and the ogres were intimidated. They were taken aback but it did not last long. They grinned and to their surprise, there were loud thud that came from afar.
The other ogres looked at its direction and then they were perplexed by a booming sound. A man that landed in their midst came slaughtering the ogres one by one. A sword flashed in the dusts that was the aftermath of the descend and then in a flicker, ogre's heads and limbs were severed.
The others came and became a backup to the sole person that arrived. They were paralyzed to the view of blood spewing in spray that made their vicinity paint in blood.
The warriors slumped their butts on the ground as they were saved. They did not expect to be alive somewhat and they felt thankful for the persons that saved them.
But as soon as they saw the dusts blown by the wind. They immediately saw raggy outfits of villagers. Making them disappointed at they saw.
To think mere villagers were their saviors and their pride were crushed. Instead to be thankful, they bit their lips and became ashamed of themselves.
"I am Kenny, the Captain of this team. Nice to meet you all." He smiled at them to make them feel at ease.
Their leader then approached Kenny, "Hey! How come villagers are our Savior? How come? I can't believe this. You got to be kidding me! I can't swallow this!"
"Um it's fine if you can't believe. We will just escort you to our lord and he will let you rest in the village maybe." Kenny said to him.
The border patrol team immediately escorted them and then they were questioning. "How come ogres were in this areas? Did something happened?" Asked Kenny to them.
"Um, I am Reinold, I am the leader and prince of the Warrior tribe. I don't see any reason why I must answer your questions. I must see your Lord.
"Okay!" Kenny then went to about face and then escorted them.
They went back to their village while Kenny was whistling. The Warriors were still unbelieving and were not happy. They could not be contented with them following the orders of a mere villager.
"Hey, Kenny right?" Reinold asked.
"Yes?" He asked.
He drew his sword then it made Kenny raise his eyebrows. "Hmm? Is something wrong?"
He immediately spoke boldly, "Leave your Lord and follow me. I will better suiting as your Lord." He said then Kenny laughed.
"Hahaha! Are you serious? That is funny. But no! I will not replace him as our Lord. Thank you for your offer." Kenny replied.
"Huh? You dare!?" Reinold shouted.
"Hey! Our Prince is a Royalty in our Tribe! Show some respect!" Shouted one of Reinolds underlings.
"Okay okay, I am sorry," he said, 'Sigh these lowlifes and entitled ones.' Kenny could not hide his disappointment.
"Hmm, I bet your Lord is a coward and a weakling. We of warrior race could be better fitting to rule over you all." He said to him. "Oh wait, your Lord must be a poor Beggar, right?" He said to Kenny.
Immediately, Kenny turned to him and then glared. His blood lust was surging. Aura was seeping out of his skin.
He could tolerate these fools insulting him but can't accept the insult to his beloved Lord.
"Hey, you say?... How about we have a small bet. If us poor punny beggars could defeat you all warriors then you will all take back what you said. If not, then we will serve you all. How's it?" Kenny offered him an interesting one. A tempting one at that.
"Oh? Okay good! Now we're talking," Reinold said to him while grinning.
