Chapter 19 First blood (1/2)

”Some demonic beasts are making their way towards us as I speak!”

I could only guess that despite the showcase that I just presented, Eve was still wary of the dangers that a wild animal of this world could pose to me. Even if the strength of my sword was immense, without the required skills and most importantly - a proper mindset, one could easily turn from a hunter to the prey.

”What are their numbers?”

Why asking that question, I swing my sword without even thinking about. Just by turning myself around to face Eve, the ease at which I could move it around caused the blade to almost escape my hand! Thankfully, nothing wrong happens, Eve's body isn't cut with the ranged slash or hit by a wind-wave.

”I think there are seven different demonic beasts out there. While alone, neither of them could pose us any harm, but a group of them is capable of doing it, so please, be onyour guard!”

What a sweet girl! If what she said before was right, just a single slash from my windslord would be enough to cut those beasts down at the distance of fifty meters! How could I be scared of them?

In just a few moments, I understood Eve's warning. It's not that I was surprised when the enemies showed themselves in a full-speed run. It seems that I forgot one crucial thing. They were in their natural habitat, while we were the invaders here!

In front, two huge, grey wolves entered the scene. Unbothered by the girl at all, they focused all their attention to me! Running in only a slightly roundabout way to avoid the greater aura of the girl, they rushed to catch and kill me first!

Not daring to take this situation lightly anymore, I swing my sword. The moment that the peak of the momentum is achieved, I bump my hand to cross the trajectory of a hit with where the animal would land after jumping. Just as I was about to slash at the other enemy, I trust my instinct and duck.

SWISH!

If I were to be only a half a second late, my head would suffer a powerful hit from an eagle-like creature. Flying without the tiniest bit of the noise, it even managed to dive at me without alerting my hearing at all!

That was close! Too close!

I have no idea how should I translate my attributes to stuff like my vitality or endurance. While I might have insane resistance, maybe it translates only to poisoning or bleeding out? In the old but well Leak of Legends game, HP was the core stat. While armour and spell resistance could lower the output of enemy attacks, vitality points would fall by a certain amount. And how I'm supposed to translate lose of HP into my real state? What if I lose a quarter of my red points and it will result in me losing my arm?

But it's not a time for idle thoughts!
