154 Snakess Snack (1/2)
-Mysterious Castle-
Ack! The shockwave pushed me back but I was able to stand on my feet. The burden of using Shade is too much, not to mention I'm using his second form. My giant sword was shattered, so the axe of the Minotaur. This is really bad. The last time I fought with Centaur, my group made it in time and we were able to gang up on him and that's how we defeated him. This time, I'm really having such a hard time keeping up with this Minotaur because of these injuries I took from them earlier.
”Huff Huff... Not bad puny human. I'll commend your bravery, but this time, I'll end you.” The Minotaur is ready to finish me off after that collision of our attacks but my plan was successful even if I die here.
-Icy Plains Camp-
*Zia's POV*
”Did you feel that?!” Celeste asked worriedly. No, I didn't sense anything...
”Yeah, I think. It came from the Icy Mountain. I felt a large amount of army. I also felt tremendous Auras near the top. I should have not sensed it but the Auras are too powerful that it emits even here.” Mari said. She's getting worried for some reason. Still, I didn't sense anything... Now I'm starting to think if something's wrong with me.
”The Guild Leaders might have felt it too. Something must have happened there. There's no way an army and powerful monsters would just pop out of nowhere.” She said. She's right. If there's a massive force there that just showed up out of the blue then maybe they are already there from that start.
”Fellow people, warriors, mercenaries, and adventurers of New Life Online, I know you've felt a malicious aura just now and it seems that something happened inside the castle. Right now, we don't have the proper formation and we are scattered like fresh meats to those hungry monsters. Listen to me and this would really save our lives.” It's Zeth, he's taking the spot of the commander and the other guild leaders are just going on with it. Maybe they realized that we really need to cooperate.
”Who the f*ck said that you can just command us?!” Ugh... or maybe not. It's Siren...
”Stop talking to me like that. We have to cooperate or it would be a slaughter. Doesn't matter if you like it or not but if you would just slow us down then it's better if you guys could leave this place and hide.” They're starting it again...
*WOOOOOOOOOSH!* A portal was created out of the blue and two people showed up!
”Both of you stop arguing. I'll take the position of the commander for the people of New Life.” Oh crap! It's my sis and an old geezer!
”You, sh*t...” Siren is even annoyed right now.
”What was that? Do you want me to cut your tongue out right now?” Sis really owns them.
Siren just stayed silent and it seems that there are no more problems with the cooperation... The atmosphere after my Sis showed up started to lighten up and most of their worries faded away. She's so reliable and I think with her here, we can win this battle.
”Zeth was right earlier. We have to cooperate or this would be a disaster. So our plan is to take advantage of our homeland and do our best to stop this invasion. I have a plan and we will start now!” She ordered in an absolute attitude.
-Scy's Guild-
*Akko's POV*
”What was that?” I've felt a tremendous ominous feeling from the Icy Mountains.
We assembled every member we have and the only missing is Zia's group and Scy.
”Yeah, I felt an insane number of monsters. I hope Scy is ok there.” Elou replied. Why the heck did you...
”What do you mean Scy is ok there? Did he go there by himself?” Petula asked... Now you've done it Elou...
”Uhmmm, I was just...” Before he said anything I intervened.
”Yes, Scy went there by himself to investigate and I think that he found something dangerous instead,” It's better to tell them the truth.
”Hey, Akko... are you sure?” Elou asked me.
”It's alright. They should know. We are family after all.”
”Why didn't you said something earlier. We should have come with him and helped him when he needs us. Scy and you guys saved us a couple of times and we want to also do the same for you even if it's just a pain in the butt...” I appreciate the concern Petula but it's a dangerous mission...
After that, I explained why he went there by himself expect the change of gender part...
