Overlord Shinobi Executions: Eight Fingers


Wolf was on his way back to an inn he was staying at. It was getting late as the job he was on took all day to finish. He was almost at his destination, when he noticed down an alleyway, he caught sight of three hooded men near a carriage. Wolf quickly hid himself from sight. These people seemed to be discussing something, so Wolf eavesdropped.

Man 1: Come on! I won't be too rough with them.

Man 2: No. They are to be delivered in one piece. Boss won't tolerate any damage done to them.

Man 1: Why does he care? It's not like he's into girls or something.

Man 2: That is not up for debate. If he finds out that one of the girls has been tampered with, we're bound to receive punishment sooner or later.

Man 3: Hey you sure we should be staying out here? Someone might see us.

Man 1: Relax, barely anyone walks around in this area at night it might as well be a ghost town or something.

Man 3: I'm not so sure about that...

Wolf was not happy. From what he learned, these men kidnapped a group of women with the intent to sell them off. He wasn't surprised to learn that slavery happened in this country as it happened in his country as well, but that didn't quell his anger towards the hooded men. He could've been subtle and take out these men without them knowing what hit them, but Wolf chose to make himself known.

Wolf: (Walks towards the hooded men)

All three men then noticed Wolf walking towards them.

Man 3: Dammit! I told you someone might see us!

Man 1: (Pushes Man 3 aside) It's just one guy. Calm down.

Man 2: (Glances at Man 1 & 3, then looks at Wolf) It's best that you walk away. The last thing you want to happen is ending up in a body bag.

Wolf: Not until those women are free.

Man 1: (Laughing) Oh sure! I'll set these women free! If you have money for it!

Man 2: (Smirks)

Man 3: (Recognizes Wolf, becomes terrified)

The look of recognition from the third man didn't go unnoticed by Wolf. It was obvious that he was a rookie. As for the other two men, they didn't recognize him at all.

Too bad for them...

Wolf slowly starts drawing Kusabimaru from its sheath, two out of the three men responded in kind by unsheathing their own weapons.

Man 2: How unwise... I did warn you walk away, but it looks like you've chosen your fate.

Man 1: (Looks at Man 3) What are you scared for? We outnumber him!

Man 3: B-but he's-

Man 1: (In a mocking voice) He's what? The boogeyman?

Man 3: He's that adventurer with the prosthetic!

Both men take a look at Wolf's arms, and one of them was indeed a prosthetic.

Man 2: I see... So you're that adventurer, the One Armed Wolf. That changes nothing. You self righteous individuals will die all the same.

Man 1: And you'll die right now! (Charges at Wolf with a crazed smile)

Man 2: (Charges at Wolf with a smirk)

Wolf sheathed his sword and waited until his attacker got close enough to unleash his attack.

[One Mind]

In a blink of an eye, Wolf appeared to have Kusabimaru out of its sheath. The world was in slow motion as a severed arm descended to the ground, and when it was in slow motion no longer...

Man 1: (Backs away, then Kneels as he screams in agony) AGGGHHHHH! (Looks up to Wolf in anger) Y-you! Bastard!

Man 2: (Stops frozen in tracks) 'W-what just happened?'

Man 1: Damn you! You'll pay! (Charges at Wolf again with a poisoned blade in hand)

Wolf shakes his head at this reckless attempt to exact revenge as he knocks blade out his assaulter's hand, then grabs his face and stabs his sword through the neck and throws him to the ground. The man lays there as he bleeds to death, blood gurgling from his mouth.

The second man was still processing what had happened just moments ago at this point.

Man 2: (Sweating bullets) 'How? Not even Brain Unglaus could move that fast!'

He was snapped out of his stupor when Wolf was inches away from him. He tried to swing at Wolf hoping to get a hit on him. It proved futile as Wolf deflected his swing leaving him open to performing a Deathblow, and Wolf did just that.

Man 2: Impossible... (Falls to the ground, dead)

Wolf then looks to the last man standing, he could see that he urinated his pants but paid no mind to it. Wolf then grabs him.

Man 3: Please! Don't kill me! I'll give you anything

Wolf: (Pulls Man 3 closer) I want information...

It was a long night at that point. After interrogating the man, Wolf tied him up, and threw him into the back of the carriage, then freed the women who were kidnapped. They were all escorted home safely. The man involved in the kidnapping was arrested.

Wolf would wake up to investigate this 'Eight Fingers' the next day, for this incident had sealed their fate.

Hoped you liked this chapter. Nothing to do with Nazarick unfortunately. I just wanted to write what would happen if Wolf were ever to first hear of Eight Fingers.

Feel free to review! Is there something I should fix? Let me know!
