Being Strong On Your Own

Chapter 59: Fighting the Harpy

Irena slashed her two swords in the air to send out a crescent-shaped light slash.

It was easy for the Harpy to avoid him even more so when he could fly. In terms of the arena these trees are quite good at hiding themselves.

A few feathers darted into Irena's body and then blew herself up, she slightly knelt down to keep her position standing. Simultaneously the Harpy darted at him, he had no human legs but rather a bird's feet with claws as sharp as a sword.

If it hit anyone, it would be easy to kill him.

Irena swung her sword to fend off the attack until an ear-splitting sound mixed with a dazzling glint, as Irena countered she moved inside the trees. A harpy appeared behind him to injure his back.

Blood spurted into the air and when Irena attacked to give back the Harpy figure disappeared back.

It happened so many times that he was stingy with sweat soaking his face.

"I admit you're very strong, if anyone else they would have died earlier" Harpy said.

"Don't underestimate the adventurer" he replied as a bird feather returned to him and blew him up until he bounced far up.

"Aaaaaargh."

Shouts echoed around the forest, even so Irena did not want to give up and she still stood with two swords in her hands.

"Hard-headed, this is why I hate humans, you weak beings but constantly struggle."

Irena smiled with satisfaction.

"This is what we are proud of as human beings, the feeling of never giving up."

"I want to see how desperate you are when I can beat you."

Harpy attacked again, different from before her movement was able to be followed by Irena, she was able to give scratches all over her body so that Harpy had to think twice to attack her.

"You?"

"Don't underestimate humans."

A single slash made the Harpy's body fly backwards while destroying several trees behind it.

If these trees were blocking Irena just had to cut everything down, she thought of it thus.

Irena swung her sword which cut through all the nearby trees until they all fell down and left her and the large area around her.

"You're crazy."

Irena noticed the disaster she made and she could see some other Harpy-like creatures appear.

"It's just that you guys are too fast, it turns out that you are quite a lot."

The Harpies moved forward yet in the moment

as they approached Irena, they were struck by lightning from above the sky leaving them toasted.

"Baked eggs are the best."

"How is there lightning? It was a bright day."

Harpy turned her gaze to the sky where it appeared that a magic circle was created there. It made him surprised how big it was.

"When you keep attacking me, I've prepared everything."

"It's not worth it."

"You want to run, I won't let you."

The harpy immediately flew away in the air but just like her other companions lightning struck her until she fell to the ground.

"Graaaah."

He died forever.

Dragging herself back to her troops were, Irena could see that their fight had finished as well.

On top of that pile of corpses he realized that his army had already won, they moved to swarm him.

"Commander?"

"We won."

Shouts of joy echoed into the air.

"It's dark today, let's make a tent to rest for a few days."

"Good."

As Irena walked, she suddenly lost her balance, Eva who realized it was giving her back to hold her back from falling.

"Because you're tired, let me carry you."

"That would be a shame, papah I'm just."

"Basic shy."
