"..." Nancy was of course too smart to reply to this rhetorical statement made by our bored gamer.
"Well hello there, beautiful! I'm flattered that somebody finally remembered me today." Clark made his way back to whence he came.
And it was nice to note that someone very enticing indeed has awaited his tracks deeper into this gambling den.
'So she is the reason why nothing would dare make trouble in this mixture of human filth and glory.' Our good gamer realized in the end.
It was quite obvious that even the drunken men that threw lewd gazes at the lovely young servant girls kept themselves in check at this time.
There was really a revered cultivator in their midst.
'Check her out for me, Nancy.' Clark instructed in silence.
"Affirmative, host.' The system replied eagerly.
"DING!"
Name: Shi Ling
Cultivation: Innate Realm 5th Stage (downgraded to 3rd Stage of Martial Realm)
Status: Poisoned
'So that's why this woman chooses to stay in this backwater land where even the gods refuse to pee.'
'SIGH!'
'She is in hiding.' Clark smiled at the leverage that she got against the charming cultivator in his front. To know that Shi Ling was also pretty gorgeous was an added bonus in his quest tonight.
"You have made a ruckus earlier today, Master Clark. Only a fool would mistake you for somebody else." Shi Ling said after our bored gamer arrived before her.
She measured our very own protagonist from head to foot and she could determine that Clark was at least at the 7th Stage of Martial Realm.
Although she was practically outmatched in level because of her sticky condition but that did not mean at all that she was helpless.
There were more things that would decide the outcome of a fight than mere gaps in cultivation realms.
"Indeed. I guess only these men can be considered fools, yes?" Clark threw a jest at the expense of the people in the tavern.
'FUCK YOU VERY MUCH, YOU MURDERER!' Alas, the men inside could only curse our bored gamer in their hearts.
They still love to live than go against a madman like this Master Clark Colter in their midst.
The men complained in silence as they continued to eavesdrop in the conversation between these two strong personalities.
Everyone knew that the owner of this place was not one to be bullied.
"I guess so." Shi Ling shrugged and took the initiative to invite our good gamer for what she had in mind.
"Can i take your offer for that drink instead?" She asked with a seductive smile on her face.
"Of course, Miss Shi Ling. You can take me drinking anywhere you want." Clark replied but he found out that he had made a mistake thereafter.
Alas, it was all too late to take his words back again.
"BANG!" An agile fist strike slapped towards our bored gamer's face. Clark was of course not a mannequin toy that would take any attacks lightly.
He dodged and the air seemed to explode between them. But like a determined monster in search of its prey, Shi Ling followed closely and thus a close proximity battle had begun in full.
The two combatants went bare handed in the scene.
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!"
"BOOM!" Several fists and masterful kicks were successfully defended. Shi Ling was quite the angel to look at. Her technique was flashy and was almost a work of art in motion.
On the other hand, our bored gamer only moved in the barest of actions. He merely evaded and parried the hits to the best of his ability.
This was the limit of his proficiency at the moment.
'Hmmm... I should learn some combat techniques later on.' Clark decided while the battle was still ongoing.
It was a surprise to see that there was no collateral damage in this battle whatsoever.
No chairs were upturned and even the guests of the place were unharmed all in all. Shi Ling and Clark both knew how to confine their fight in the tiniest bit of space.
"Let me end this, assassin." Shi Ling whispered in hate. She thought that our bored gamer was nothing but a paid killer that was after her head in this town.
One should know that she never used the name Shi Ling in her stay in Shimmerwood. Not once. So this weird man could only be an assailant that was commissioned by her enemy.
"FLASH!" A blinding light appeared once before it convalesced onto the long sharp surface of a sword.
Shi Ling's weapon looked deadly enough and from it, Clark could feel the threat of his imminent death in those blades.
'FUCK ME! Why are women so fast to conclude in all things?' Our bored gamer sighed deeply as she gazed at the violent woman nearby.
Luckily enough, Clark knew that it was time to put an end to this play. If he took a few breaths more of inaction, he would no doubt grace the floors with his rolling head in the aftermath.
It was easy to speculate that the weapon in Shi Ling's hand was a graded weapon that would fit the hands of innate cultivators best.
As a mere 7th Stage Martial Realm newbie, he has no hope to challenge this weapon and its owner at this time.
"Kill me and you will have a slow death in this god forsaken town, Shi Ling."
"But if you listen to my words, then I would have let you know that I have the cure to the poison that afflicts you." Clark said his piece and stood his ground.
"SLASH!" Unfortunately, Shi Ling seemed deaf to it all. She dropped a merciless strike using her sword and it landed at the neck of our bored gamer. It drew blood. A droplet and no more.
"You have one chance to prove your claim. If you dare lie to me then I could always kill you at that time." Shi Ling threatened in a grave voice.

Thirty minutes later and a woman could be seen blushing in nudity.
