Walker Of The Worlds

Near the western exit of town, there existed an open ground. Many tents were currently pitched in that open ground. On some of the tents, banners or plates bearing the symbols of mercenary groups could be seen. While the other tents were just normal tents used by hunters.

The mercenaries could be seen sitting outside the tents, doing chores. Some were sharpening their weapons, some were taking an inventory while others were just talking to each other. Suddenly the mercenaries heard a commotion coming from the site where hunters had their tents set up.

Some of the mercenaries stood up and walked there to check. Upon reaching there, they saw a couple of broken tents as well as hunters that were currently being beaten. They looked at the aggressors and saw that they did not seem to care much as they continued their one-sided fight.

"We already told you to leave once, why don't you listen?" A short hunter said as he punched the face of a man lying on the ground.

"Do you dare to disrespect Gan Ma again? A long-faced man spoke as he stepped on the hand of another hunter lying on the ground.

These hunters were none other than the same hunters who had fought with Lin Mu before. Since they were unable to get a room at the inn, they had no choice but to pitch a tent with the other hunters at the western exit of the town.

Most of the hunters were not natives of Northern town. They usually came from the subordinate villages and lived at inns for the most part as they could not buy houses in the town. There were two reasons for this, the first being that there were few empty houses left in the town and the houses were expensive to buy as well.

Especially for hunters who barely made a few gold coins a year, it was impossible to buy a house. Though it was not like every hunter stayed at the inn during the winter. The hunters that came from the villages would return there during the winter and only return during the spring.

"Damn it, how did that kid become a cultivator?" The short hunter shouted as he punched an unconscious hunter.

He then stood up and then kicked the unconscious man one last time before leaving him. A couple of other hunters came by and picked up the unconscious man before taking him away.

"Don't think too much. Leader Gan Ma will take care of him soon." The long-faced hunter replied.

"I want to kill that kid with my own hands. Even leader took years to become a cultivator, who even taught him?" The short hunter spoke with frustration on his face.
