71 Gallant Kid (2/2)

”Hii~!” the girl immediately shrieked in fear while the boy immediately ran towards her and hugged her head towards his chest.

”It's going to be fine, Lea. Your big brother here would surely protect you” the boy smiled and rubbed his sister's head.

In this life and death moment, the boy surprising didn't show any signs of fear anymore and instead his eyes were red, almost on the verge of tears but his eyes clearly showed determination to protect his sister that he even picked an arm sized branch from the ground and knowing that their deaths are imminent, the boy hatefully threw the branch towards the beast which the latter caught the branch on its mouth and crushed into pieces. If Leo or Caleb saw the boy right now, they would probably be amazed at this kid's mentality and wondered what their journey had been for this little boy to be this calm in the face of death that only people who had face countless near death situations would have.

”Roaarrr!” the panther roared angrily and pounced towards the two kids with its jaws wide open, ready to devour them.

But just as the panther beast was in mid air with its mouth wide open exposing it scary and sharp fangs.

”Roar?” the monster was suddenly confused as he suddenly dropped down towards the ground from mid air like its body suddenly suffered an intense gravity around its body that it immediately plummeted towards the ground.

Of course, the monster didn't suffer from some kind of increase gravity but instead there was a person behind it and holding its tail.

The man let go of its tail and the monster turned around and faced its new enemy with it's senses heightened to the max as it felt the dangerous air around the newcomer.

The boy seeing that nothing and instead heard a hard thump on the ground as he slowly opened his eyes and what he saw in front of him was a man dressed in some kind of military uniform, having some kind of a face off with the beast.

”Run or the beast will kill you!” the boy suddenly warned in concern like he suddenly forgot that they were in the same kind of scenario earlier.

Hearing, his brother shouting, the little girl hiding her head on his chest with her eyes tightly shut and with tears streaming down her face suddenly muttered in a low voice, ”No, I won't leave you”

The boy heard her sister which he suddenly smiled warily at the misunderstanding.

Hearing the boy warning him, the cold look on the man's face decrease a bit as he smiled towards the boy, admiring the boy's morality even in this dangerous situation that the two siblings are.

While this is happening, the panther is instead circling around the man and emitting low growling sounds towards the man like he was giving him a warning.

”Noo~!” the yelled with immense horror when he saw the beast pouncing behind the man.

The man just casually smiled and his silhouette suddenly blurred as the man was already facing the beast with one of his hand already resting on the head of the monster and smashed it towards the ground causing web like cracks on the ground.

”W-what!?” the girl suddenly panicked and looked up when she felt the tremor on the ground and the first thing she noticed was the shocked expression on her brother's face.

”Andy! W-What happened?” the girl suddenly grew worried and started shaking him but when she noticed that he wasn't reacting to her. She then slowly turned her head towards where Andy is looking at and that, her little brain suddenly short circuited from the scene in front of her.

What she saw was a man in a military uniform pressing the head of the beast that has been playfully hunting them for a long time had it's head pressed hard onto ground by the man with only one hand.

”Sir! Why did you suddenly ran off?” Austin, Josh and Mark suddenly running over but Austin slowly died down the moment they got nearer to the scene.

”Gulp” all three of them gulped at the same time because the monster in front of them was two times bigger than the alpha wolf before.

Suddenly, Austin noticed the two kids huddled up near a huge tree.

'Kids? Why are there kids here' Austin thought but then he was suddenly struck with a realization and looked at the Alex who slowly stood up with his hand clamped around the neck of the whimpering beast.

'Did he purposely ran towards here to save this two kids?'

'But how did he know? Even if he had superb hearing, he still wouldn't be able hear what's happening here! This place was at least three hundred yards away from the road' Austin thought crazily in his mind

”Take care of the kids” is what Alex only said when he passed by them while the dragging the flailing beast on the ground with beast's eyes full of immense fear.

”Yes sir!” Austin unconsciously saluted towards Alex, that even Josh and Mark followed suit.
