Chapter 398: Resolve (1/2)

The two fighters felt a chill down their spine when their eyes met. However, they still hadn't realized that the human before them was nothing but a monster.

”Lady?!” The fighter called her again, albeit got no response.

”I'm sorry if I offend you, but I need to get you out of here.” The other fighter decided to take action because the monsters were already near them.

Unfortunately, that was the biggest mistake he could make as the female suddenly leaped forward, waving her hands from the side.

Four crescent-shaped red lights flashed.

Luckily, the fighter was still an elite among Level 300 fighters. He somehow managed to pull his sword to stop these lights, albeit he got launched into the air, landing with his body and rolling a few times on the ground.

”Wha—” The other fighter widened his eyes and raised his weapon, alarmed.

Alea's voice started echoing in their ears as she came forward to warn them herself. ”Watch out. She is a monster, not a human.”

When the other fighter heard it, he raised his sword, intercepting another attack from the woman. That timely warning made his body react faster, blocking her hand with his sword completely.

”Her fingers are not cut?” The fighter gasped and confirmed that the female in front of her wasn't a human.

He leaped backward while warning his comrade. ”Quickly escape. We are regrouping with the rest.”

The fighter, who was blown away earlier, rose from the ground and checked her again with his Skylink, confirming it as a Mutated Chimera Wolf, the monster they wanted to avoid with the new route.

”What is happening?” He shouted and started running.

Seeing the others had returned, Alea also began to fall back while shouting, ”We need to get away from here.”

The two fighters nodded and ran away while keeping an eye on the female that somehow stopped moving after that attack.

Behind her, numerous wolves with different forms chased after them. There were half-human, half-horse, and many other forms.

However, Theo would be surprised if he heard what came out of Alea's mouth next.

”It's really an assassination attempt. I guess it's good that I am prepared for it.” Alea sighed, remembering the last thing she decided to trust other people despite Theo's warning. Theo was almost framed by another person.

At that time, she swore to not repeat her mistake, so she made another preparation for this.

She returned to the group and said, ”We will fall back.”

”Understood.” All of them acknowledged her orders and began to look at the huge cloud of dust approaching them.

Xavier frowned and shouted, ”They are faster than us. They will catch up soon.”

”Magicians! Get on top of the cubicars and hit them with your skills to buy us some time. Knights and fighters prepare to intercept them. The rest will match our movement.” Alea commanded while looking back, watching them coming closer.

The magicians started going to their position and released their attacks.
