Chapter 42: Two Axes, Bow and Arrows (2/2)

Dark red blood gushed out from its head as both of Arion's axes made a severe wound on its head, making it succumb to the ground.

Seeing its corpse, Arion was shocked at himself for being able to bring down a Dreadling all on his own!

'I did it!! I killed one!' Arion inwardly screamed in disbelief and excitement since he never thought he would be able to kill one so easily. He also felt that the weight of the axes he was holding felt lighter.

By looking at how sturdy and thick the axes seemed, he thought it should feel heavier, especially when someone like him was holding it.

And this also made him wonder how he was able to kill a Dreadling with his measly strength in the first place.

But he suddenly stifled his excitement when he heard other screeches echoing in the darkness.

”Shit, they are catching up quite fast!” Arion didn't waste any further time and ran forward with his axes out.

He kept on running as fast as he could, but then he frowned when he saw that there was a large number of stones piled up ahead and the only opening was a small hole above these piles of stones.

'How the fuck am I gonna climb over them??' Arion became tense since he basically came at a dead end and felt that these stones must have been debris that fell off from somewhere.

His heart thumped as he heard the sound of the Dreadlings scurrying from behind, followed by their nasty screeches.

He finally gritted his teeth and readied his bow, thinking that there was no other choice but to face them all head-on.

Since the Dreadlings that were chasing him were still a few dozen meters behind him, he decided to use his bow and arrow to strike them down from afar.

He swiftly took out an arrow from his quiver and drew his bow without much hope, thinking that he wouldn't be able to draw out its string properly.

But to his astonishment, when he pulled the string backward, he felt less resistance this time and was able to stretch it sufficiently enough to properly fire an arrow.

'What the heck is going on…' Arion was being thrown surprises at one after the another but threw it all to the back of his mind since at this moment, the tension in his heart was keeping him focused at the front where he could see the shadows of the horde of Jawfiends scurrying forward followed by a huge shadow which seemed to move slower than the Jawfiends.

*Kreee!*

Arion spotted two to three Jawfiends coming into his vision soon enough. He stretched the bowstring to the maximum he could and fired an arrow after aiming at one of them, ”Take this, ugly fuckers!”
