45 Chapter 45 ~ Teamwork - P1 (1/2)

Her entire body was pierced by the large fangs of the enemy. It penetrated her limbs and cracked her bones. It was a sight only seen in nightmares.

She died...

Or at least she thought so...

[ Lumi-nee...! ]

...

...

As she hears the voice of her companion, Nina, the illusion created by her instinct disappeared like smoke.

She blinks her eyes and realized that she was still alive; kneeling behind the back of Nina.

Everything she just saw was created by the fear she felt when she looked at the enemy's eyes. She thought death was certain. But it seems that was not the case.

[ Lumi! Nina! ] Sarah, who's standing in panic, far on the other corner, shouted her name.

[ Lumi-nee! I...! I won't be able to hold much longer...! ]

[ ...! ]

Because of the confusion and shock, it was a little slow for Lumi to realize, but as soon as she did, she started to panic.

Nina is holding off the relentless bites and headbutts of the numerous heads of the enemy.

She and Lumi are both inside a sphere-like, transparent shield that at any moment - will be destroyed.

*Crack...!

*Crack!!!

Immediately, Lumi made her move.

She rushed and took Nina's body that seemed to have been taken off all of its strength and immediately dashed away from the pursuit of the enemy's attacks without hesitation.

( Tsk! This is my fault! ) looking at Nina's limp body, who had reached its limit protecting her, Lumi could only blame herself for not being able to do anything.

Carrying Nina's body, she turned her head upwards to the enemy who's still hanging half of its body on the ceiling.

Its eyes are red in anger. She feels its irritation - probably because of its two prey escaping from its attack.

( ...! ) opening its mouths, it spits at them.

Green liquids were shot towards them. Nina knows what that attack was. It was said that the spit of a Draconic Snake-hydra can easily melt metal. It was more than dangerous to get hit by it.

She leaps small distances every time the shots were about to hit them - it, being effective and none was able to hit their target.

Lumi was dodging all of the enemy's attacks with her nimble body, not letting a single one hit her and Nina.

Every second felt like a while as the enemy continues to pursue her. Her master will always put them into harsh and impossible situations, but in the end, she knows that he won't let them die from it. What's happening right now is completely different from that - with one wrong move, she, and her companions will die.

[ Lumi! ] Sarah, who seemed to have already caught up, attacked the enemy with her sword, cutting one of its head.

Being in shock, the enemy stopped its tracks and look at the figure of Sarah who has her guard up, gripping the hilt of her sword tight. There was also Caiden, who also tried to attack the body of the enemy but failed to injure it.

[ Lumi! Give her master's potion! ]

[ A-Ah! ]

Maybe because she was panicking and was under the pressure of the enemy that she forgot to give Nina the potion her master had given them, but either way, she needs to eventually and immediately do it.

Taking out a blue-colored bottle from her pouch, she looks at the face of the girl she's holding in her arms. She bit and open the lid of the potion and made Nina drink its content.

[ Come-on, Nina! ]
