As the morning sun started to rise Zeref was already awake doing a small workout to get his body loosened for the days battle. Zeref looked at the guards that were stationed at the outpost, weak, fat, incompetent, it was clear he would be going on the hunt alone. Zeref left the small building without saying a single word to them, to him they were nothing but hindrances. Zeref moved about the forest, placing Koton Kunia in a few location, trip wires in others, it would be twenty four against him, if you counted his clones it would be seven against twenty four.
With the traps laid out Zeref moved to the bandits camp, on his way there he ended up running into one bandit and quickly disposed of him with a slit to the throat, there would be no mercy. Zeref now just outside of the camp, the sun to his back summoned six clones, and then disguised them by covering their faces, or taking off other articles of clothing. To the untrained eye it would look like there was seven different people and not one with six clones. His hope was to attack, and then scatter causing the bandits to split their forces. Zeref and his six clones all drew out their weapons, slowly they spread out in a slight semi circle formation and then charged the camp.
It was still early so many of the bandits were still sleeping, the ones who were awake still tried. As Zeref and the clones entered the camp they killed off three bandits before another was able to shout. The small clone force continued to move through the camp, slashing and stabbing as they pushed deeper. Three minutes into the attack the bandits numbers went from twenty four, to fifteen but now all of them were awake and charging back at Zeref and his clones. Zeref smirked, turned on his heels and ran back into the forest, the clones following suit along with the bandits, just as planed.
As the bandits started to chase the clones started to split off which as Zeref hopped the bandits followed, splitting into smaller groups. Zeref could hear screams echoing through the forest as traps were triggered, or clones took out more and more. Zeref who was being chased by three formed a few hand signs just as he passed a Koton Kunia causing it to form into a sphere and explode killing the three that followed him. Zeref stopped running looking at the bodies laid out in front of him, one was still alive, Zeref walked over and crush the barely breathing bandits throat with his boot.
Moving through the forest Zeref headed back to the bandits camp, his clones had killed off the remaining bandits all that was left was to burn the camp and kill anyone who wasn't part of the chase. Zeref set the camp on fire, if there were more bandits they were not at the camp, but hopefully if they returned they would see the carnage and death and decided it was best to move on, other wise Zeref would have to return.
Zeref returned to the small look out to update the lazy guards, they were shocked once they heard Zeref took out the whole camp by himself, but they were grateful that they no longer should be under the threat of attack. The last two days of the assignment were dull, no counter attack from any bandits, not even any rumors of any movement from them, Zeref figured none would be stupid enough to attack for a while. With the three days over, Zeref headed out to return to the village and get paid.
