101 Disturbance in the Ancient Tomb (2/2)
Their only choice was to hurry forward and find her before she could stop and send a messenger pigeon. They would then have to kill her…
However, there were many forks in the ancient tomb, and it was difficult to track anyone.
One person left the group and headed toward the player who fought against a Stone Giant at the corner furthest away from the entrance.
”Hey! Did you see someone head past this place?!”
Happy did not say anything. It was not a relaxing matter to fight against a Stone Giant by himself. He had to pay full attention to the fight and could not let the world around him distract him.
When he heard someone ask him a question in a gruff voice, he scowled. In a very displeased manner, he shouted, ”No!”
And he continued fighting against the Stone Giant.
”You…”
When the person heard Happy answer in such a rude manner, he glared at him. ”Open your eyes wider then? I'm asking you a question! A woman walked past this place just now, where did she go?” While he spoke, he intentionally brought out his weapon and held it in his hand.
Shing!
His sword let out a clear sound when he drew it out of its sheath, and the whine did not fade away even after a long time had passed.
”This guy.”
The man with the fan frowned slightly when he saw that the person he sent had decided to become aggressive, but he did not stop him.
Even though the other person was clearly in Blessed Realm and even practiced a high-tier saber technique, it was not wise for him to be unreasonable before them. They'd had to suffer a lot of grievances, and anger had been boiling in their hearts for a long time. When faced with such an impudent person, they could not help but lose control of their emotions a little.
They might not need to oppress him with numbers, but right then, they were pressed for time, and perhaps threatening him would help them to achieve their goals in the most direct and fastest manner.
However, their thoughts were wrong.
Happy only cast a glance at the person who threatened him with ice in his eyes. Then, he didn't say or do anything. He continued to fight against the Stone Giant, completely ignoring the stranger.
'Very good…'
When the man with the fan saw that his entire group had been completely ignored, a hint of fierceness and anger flashed briefly in his eyes, especially since he had been suppressing his anger for a while.
'Is he ignoring us simply because he's practicing a high-tier saber technique? What right does he have to do so? Because of his less than hundred thousand silver worth beginner level equipment, or his stupidly low-leveled body fortification technique?
”You're just asking for death!”
The man fanning himself shut the fan, and three of the Blessed Realm fighters beside him attacked at the same time. Without any hesitation, they charged toward the person and monster at the furthest corner from the entrance.
Happy did not say anything. He had noticed the trio's violent charge and ill-will. He frowned and did a calm onceover of the trio's weapons, but did not show any alarm.
When the trio approached him, his expression turned dark. He tapped against the ground and, to everyone's surprise, rushed between the trio, sinking into their encirclement.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
Since it had lost its target all of a sudden, the Stone Giant turned around swiftly. It ran as quick as the wind in chase of Happy, but another person appeared between it and its target.
The Stone Giant acted on its instinct to attack the nearest target, and its ferocious and savage gaze instantly fell on the poor soul before it!
