But the building of all of that made the usually cheerful young man a tad grumpier than usual. Which meant that while he was out drinking with some other freelancers one night at a bar and some jerks started heckling them, he didn’t take as kindly to it as usual. Which even usually wasn’t very kind at all anyways, so he had pretty much jumped at the chance to fight. Which resulted in a rather epic bar one-sided bar fight with Silver showing his skill as a swordsman that sent the jerkasses fleeing with their tails between their legs.
But it turns out that they were jerks with older brothers in the Rune Knights or something. Which resulted in Silver being cornered after he left the bar in a nearby back alley, surrounded by some rather strong looking bullies who were probably going to arrest the swordsman after they finished beating the crap out of him.
“Aw’ c’mon guys this is hardly fair.” Silver drawls out, hand on his katana as he faced one end of the alley with the leader, knowing that the other end was blocked by more of them. “Six against one? Aren’t you knightly types supposed to be honorable or something?” He knew he was screwed, a foreigner with nothing and no one to his name didn’t have any backing against the word of several Rune Knights. This was technically his fault for causing a scene and assaulting people so they had legitimate reasons to arrest him, though they were definitely going envoke some police brutality that they would definitely get away with. But being caught here would make things much too complicated for him. And he didn’t want to cause Phoebe any trouble. So Silver would fight as much as he could and try to escape or get beaten and hope for the best. After all, he was alone with no allies and no way out.
