My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

"What the hell is going on in this city?" Jake shouted out loud in his room in the Golden Raven Inn and bar. And he wasn't alone as Alex, Peter, Berg, Helen and Steve were in the room with him.

But Alex was out cold as he had just come off a tough battle while Peter's wound was being tended by Helen.

Berg had just finished recounting the tale of how they got in this situation and Jake couldn't help but feel annoyed at this.

"What's going on here? I was also attacked by some C rank adventurers and they also sent a B rank adventurer to you guys too." Jake said annoyed.

"What!?!!! You were also attacked by C rank adventurers?" Peter asked surprised.

Jake then recounted his own tale of hunting beasts and then some C rank adventurers came to attack him but it didn't end well for them. Jake ommited the part where he got magical abilities as it didn't seem as important at the moment and there was no need to inform them.

"It's clear someone wants us dead, but who?" Berg asked.

"Isn't it obvious? Of course it's those that are in control of the city at the moment that wants us dead." Steve said.

"Well, I think it's high time I taught them a lesson…" Jake said and then he stopped as his system pulled up in front of him with a notification.

"What's wrong Jake?" Peter asked.

"It's a message from Kate." Jake replied.

"Well, what does it say?" Peter asked feeling impatient.

"She says, she tried to contact Alex through his system but couldn't so she decided to contact me. She wants to inform me that she has gotten a response from the Iron Fist Guild about my request." Jake said reading the system message out loud for the others.

"Well, what's their response?" Steve asked.

"They have accepted. They said I can bring just one person along with me for the meeting. And the meeting has been scheduled for tomorrow noon at their main base." Jake said.

"Well isn't this convenient?" Peter smirked. "We get to take them down in their own base."

"Who are you going to take along?" Helen asked.

Jake didn't reply immediately as he looked over at Alex and could see he was still out cold.

"I haven't decided yet. Hopefully by tomorrow I should have been able to make up my mind." Jake said.

"Well, we will be in our room then. Today has been truly exhausting and we need our rest so we will see you later." Helen said as she, Berg and Steve swiftly left the room.

"Let's also get some rest." Jake said as he went to lay on his own bed while Peter went to his.

While they were resting, Peter had quickly fallen asleep which was unusual to him but he welcomed the much needed rest as he wanted to feel refreshed.

While sleeping, a voice kept echoing in his head, mind and dream making him toss around the bed while mumbling some inaudible words.

Some words kept repeating in his dream.

"Come find me Peter, I'm in danger."

"Danger!"

"Please…find… find me…"

"Dan…Danger."

"Danger!" Peter shouted as he jolted awake.

"Peter, what's wrong?" Jake asked as he rushed over towards the still stunned Peter.

"It's… it's nothing, I just had a nightmare." Peter said as he touched his forehead that was now sweating.

"What's the time now?" Peter asked.

"Thirty minutes have barely passed since you fell asleep."

'Thirty minutes? What the hell was that nightmare I had? Who is in danger that needs my help?' Peter thought worriedly.

"Peter!" Jake shouted which caused Peter to snap back to reality. "What happened? I have called you like three times now."

"It's… it's nothing. I just need some air." Peter replied as he got out of bed and walked off out of the room.

"What is wrong with him?" Jake mumbled and went back to his bed to relax hoping that Peter was okay.

Meanwhile, when Peter left the room, he didn't have any destination in mind as he just walked back to the bar to get something to drink.

While drinking, Peter's mind was still on the nightmare when he saw dozens of men walking about outside which was somewhat weird.

So Peter decided to look out better and he could see that they were members of the Iron Fist Guild and they were escorting some people in chains.

Peter just sighed and went back to his seat. "Jake wanted to investigate what this slave trade is all about. But I guess it can wait for now."

After thirty minutes, Peter went back to his room and he could see Alex wide awake while sitting up and talking to Jake.

"You are awake!" Peter said as he took a seat.

"Yeah." Alex said.

"How are you feeling?" Peter asked.

"Good, tired, strained, and exhausted." Alex chuckled.

"Yeah I hear you." Peter said with a smile on his face.

"So Jake, I heard that the Iron Fist Guild have replied and accepted your proposal." Alex said.

"How did…" Jake wanted to say when Alex smiled.

"Kate had sent me a message earlier and since I couldn't have a look at it, I'm guessing she had contacted you. The message is what I'm currently reading." Alex said.

"Oh!"

"So who are you taking along?" Alex asked.

"I haven't decided yet."

"Well, you need to decide fast." Peter said. "And it better be me because I really need to teach some Iron Fist members a lesson."

"Well, you all need your rest then. So you will be in top shap tomorrow because I know that the Iron Fist Guild won't bend to our demands and we will have to fight our way through." Jake said.

"You're right." Alex replied as he lay back down. "I really need my sleep now."

"Same here." Peter jumped towards his bed and lay down.

And they all went to sleep in anticipation of the meeting that was going to take place tomorrow at noon.
