The troll territory had many protruding rocks and large caves within them. There were many open areas and seemed to be used by the trolls. A massive rock could also be seen which was assumed to be the bosses location. Most of the rocks were overgrown and outside only had some trees in sight within the flat grass planes that surrounded all the rocks.
The group of 5 would either split and go into the caves to kill the trolls or they will all enter at once if it was a larger cave. The trolls were also somewhat intelligent as they created fire as a light source within the caves.
Currently in one of the many caves Shaman and Elysia were currently hunting trolls down. Shaman had told Elysia to not use any magic to hide their capabilities and so they have a trump card against them. Although they were not using magic, their killing did not slow down.
Shaman had actually leveled up her [Sword dash] and [Slash] to level 5 and Elysia also leveled all her base skills by 1 making them all level 4.
Sam, Ada, Ava were amazed by how strong they were as he was told they were supposed to be tier 1 but he could not believe that especially after watching them hunt the trolls with ease. Sam had gone over to the 2 twins.
"After they are done killing, use your gas and get at least one of them." Sam gave them a signal to attack.
Shaman noticed they began to do something and sent a message through Rea to tell Elysia they are up to something. They both became wary and finished killing off the rest of the trolls.
They both managed to get to level 47 but Wolfy did not gain anything since they were unsure if it would cause more problems if they found out it could use magic.
Shaman instantly allocated her points.
[Attributes]
Points: 60 -> 0
Vitality 130 -> 145
Strength: 200 -> 245
[HP: 1450/1450]
'let's hope if I do get captured the restraints can be broken out of with sheer strength alone.' Shaman wanted to boost her strength as she was unsure how she will be restrained if she was to get captured.
After making sure the trolls were dead Shaman noticed a gas wrap around the area. Shaman's eyes widened as she knew it must be from the 3 suspicious group members. Elysia was not in range and was with Wolfy and had yet to turn around to regroup with Shaman.
Shaman was hit with drowsiness and felt her head spinning. The gas effects took hold of Shaman a lot quicker than she anticipated and could feel her conscious fading so she quickly put her things in her inventory before she passed out.
'Shit.' Shaman could not do anything and so her vision went black and collapsed on the floor.
Sam saw this and grabbed a hold of Shaman, He also pulled out a talisman and Ada and Ava stood next to him.
Elysia came over and saw Shaman about to be taken away. Something inside Elysia Snapped as scenarios of what could happen to Shaman played in her head. In an instant Elysia made a bow out of fire and made an enormous arrow and pulled it back.
Due to the system's help she was able to exclude Shaman from the arrow's heat and blast as she had gotten a ring from the system when she opened the accessory box and used the flower pendant she got as a decoy. The ring allowed whoever used it to be excluded from the spells of their lover by a thin magic barrier. She was surprised when she got it as it was only a tier 3 but when that thought occurred a system message winked at her.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom This also confirmed that the system had to be a person or something that is able to communicate with them consciously. Although a little creepy she was happy it was giving her things to protect the most important person in her life.
Elysia had planned to give this to Shaman as a proposal but wanted to wait till Shaman was ready but right now she needed it more than anyone else so she had the system to take it out of the inventory and put it on Shaman's finger.
Elysia saw the ring appear on Shaman and so she could go out without hurting her.
The heat from the fire bow started to melt the surroundings and the three assassins' clothes, this also revealed that they were human as well.
Elysia noticed and the intensity of the flame became hotter and hotter as the rage inside her intensified.
currently Ada was using the teleportation talisman they had but it took time to activate but finally they were able to activate it. She called out and so everyone grabbed a hold of each.
Elysia had finished and fired the arrow heading straight for the 3 and the thin barrier around Shaman could now be seen. But before the arrow could hit they teleported away.
Elysia saw them disappear and tears started to form but before she could cry she passed out. Wolfy, who had retreated, walked up to Elysia and tried to wake her up but any attempts were futile. So Wolfy started to whimper and was in a little distress and still kept trying to wake her up.

Shaman was slowly gaining consciousness but shot up when she suddenly remembered the events before she passed out but was stopped by chains.
'FUCK' Shaman saw that she was in a cell and was currently cuffed against the wall. The cuffs were tight but just enough to keep circulation through her hands. Shaman also found herself sitting with cuffs on her feet with a chain going to the wall like her arms.
'looks like they do not have materials to restrict magic.' Shaman was glad as she could still use her mana and so she had a way to leave if she wanted.
Shaman also started to calm down a little since she had a way to leave.
'I hope Elysia is okay and isn't currently turning the entire city upside down.' Shaman was actually more concerned for Elysia as she felt like Elysia could snap since there seemed to be a reliance on her presence.
'Oh yeah I have Rea, I should send her a message.' Shaman then got Rea to send a message to Elysia but Shaman only got more worried as she was not responding and she started to panic a little.
[Shaman do not worry Elysia used to much mana and is currently passed out]
Shaman sighed as at least she was safe but also thought why did Elysia use too much mana but before she could ask Rea already started answering.
[Elysia created a new spell and powered it with her mana but she went overboard causing her to pass out]
'ah okay, so she did try to save me but I guess they managed to leave before Elysia got to them.' Shaman smiled as Elysia's willingness to harm herself had left a little impact on her but also did not like the thought that she was hurting herself for her.
'I really did pick the right one but did she really have to hurt herself.' Shaman admired Elysia a little but still felt that Elysia was going too far as it was unnecessary to use that much mana.
'Anyway I should be trying to think of a way out instead of thinking about Elysia.' Shaman knew that in order to get out she had to move as well but she needed to wait for Elysia to wake up.
'I guess I can wait and see if anyone shows up.' Shaman waited in the cell to see if anyone would come and see her but after an hour Shaman was getting really bored and started to spam Elysia with messages.
'pleeassseee somebody hurry up.' Shaman's whining was answered as footsteps rang out.
'Finally lets see who it is.' Shaman had a grin but quickly got rid of it so as to not raise suspicion.
A noble looking man that looked like the city lord walked in front of the cell looking at Shaman.
"Good you are awake." The noble man grinned.
"As you may see I am the city lord and so any attempts to rescue through authorities is useless." The man giggled a little at Shaman's despaired face.
However Shaman was acting as now she had crucial information. She was in the city lords castle dungeon.
'What a dumbass, he should have not said anything but now you just cursed yourself.' Shaman was internally laughing while trying to keep the act up.
"Anyway in 2 days you are going to be sacrificed so enjoy your last days, I'll make sure to make it pleasurable." The noble man walked off and started laughing. Shaman had actually paled and hoped Elysia would wake up soon so she could plan a way to leave.
'Although I can leave I really don't want to take any risks without Elysia.' Shaman then sat and waited and was ready to burn anything that came remotely close to her, even the food as they could have been drugged.

3 hours later
Elysia had finally woken up and shot up in a panic. Wolfy had jumped away in shock as he was sitting next to Elysia
"SHAMAN!!!" But when she called out Shaman was not there. Elysia started to panic and her head started to throb but a system notification rang out.
[69 messages pending]
Elysia opened the messages and fell on her knees in relief.
"Thank god." Elysia had started to read the messages and was glad Shaman was okay. Once she reached the bottom she became happy but also furious.
"So it is the city lord who has you." Elysia had a cold glare as she now had a target and knew where Shaman could be.
She also looked at the other notifications.
[Flaming bow]
[create a fire bow than amplifies and fire abilities used with it]
[-10mp a second plus any fire arrow skills used]
Elysia was elated as it felt like an ultimate move. Elysia also turned around and was shocked to see the destruction she caused. the surroundings were smoldering and everything near the path was charred back. She also managed to shoot through the cave and cause a hole at the other end with melted rock which had settled that slightly covered the hole.
Elysia jawed and was amazed by the capabilities but remembered she had passed out as a result of this. She shook her head as right now she need to go and help Shaman break out and murder everyone who was apart of it.
"Alright, Rea send a message to Shaman."
