Chapter 218: Lilia and Achan (2/2)
Growl! Rawr!
Their body hairs stood upright when the eerie low growl could be felt just behind them.
”Wind Vortex!” One of the girls produced a mass of wind that spun in round. Without looking, she fired it at the back.
Woosh!
Seeing the incoming pillar of wind with a power that could pull everything around it, the two monsters leaped to their sides, opposite to each other.
The Wind Vortex passed in the middle without hitting its goal target. But because of it, the distance between the girls and the monsters had increased.
RAAAAAARRRR!!!
The two fierce monsters roar in anger when the two prey can escape from their fangs and claws.
But they didn't give up and continued running after them.
Those annoying prey, they will turn them into delicious meals!
When the two ladies were able to lose their chasers, they decided to take a rest behind the gigantic rock near the forest.
”Are you okay, Lilia?” Asked one of the ladies. She had long hair that tied in a twin-tail, almond eyes with beautiful green pupils, a hearty face, and a pair of pointed ears. Lilia was an Encan lady.
(Hish—hush… Deep breath.)
”Somehow. H-How about you, Achan?” Lilia asked too. Achan was a raccoon lady with beautiful round eyes and golden pupils. She had a shoulder-length fringed hairstyle of brown color. No doubt that she was a cute lady.
(Hish—hush! Breathing heavily.)
”Yeah, I'm fine too, just tired. By the way, thanks to that Wind Vortex of yours, we managed to lose them,” said Achan while letting her back rest onto the giant rock.
”It's nothing, how about your mana?”
”I think I can still cast a few more,” Achan replied while staring at her palm.
Achan glanced around and noticed the place was unfamiliar to her. It was the first time that she saw the place.
”Where are we?” She asked.
Just then, Lilia also glanced around. Then frowned a second later after she noticed the place was also unfamiliar to her. ”I don't know…” she said while biting her lip.
A worried expression was visible on their faces.
”Looks like we ran too far…” said Achan in dismay. But the ray of hope that everything would be fine was still visible in her eyes.
”I guess so,” Lilian responded. Then she continued saying: ”This is bad, this dark blue fog was hindering our vision.”
Achan knitted her brows. ”What are we going to do now?” She asked in a worried voice.
Lilian glanced at her and noticed something. ”Hey, you have wounds!” She shouted.
A horizontal wound was visible on her left shoulder. Based on the wounds, it looks like it was caused by a sharp object like a claw.
”Ahn—! No, it is fine…” after saying it, she used a healing spell to herself.
A green hue magical energy enveloped her body after she recited the spell. The wound at the back of her shoulder deliberately healed.
However, after she healed her wound, from the top of the rock they were hiding, a figure jumped and growled.
Out of reflex, they glanced above and were stunned immediately.
Before they could make a move, the figure leaped and used its sharp claw.
Woosh!
Thump!
It passed by in the middle of them and landed on the ground.
But, it was followed by spurting blood when an arm was flying over.
”AAAAAARRRGH!!!”
Achan turned pale when she heard the grieving cry coming from Lilia. One of her arms was missing, and blood was gushing from its cut.
”Go Achan, save yourself!” Lilia shouted.
But Achan was still on her feet. She was too shocked to move.
GROWL!
The monster glanced at Lilia and without wasting time, it rushed to finish her.
She wanted to fire a spell, but her wound distracted her concentration.
”LILIAAAAAA!!!” Achan shouted. Though Lilia closed her eyes and waited for her fate.
However, several seconds later, no piercing sensation or bite was felt by her. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the a headless monster in front of her.
Beside it was a manstanding with his hand dripping with blood.
