Hope Like an Angel

Peta

"Hey! Can you guys talk?!" Leo asked again, more presumptuous this time.

"Krhh krggg krhhg." The monsters just exclaimed indistinctly, incomprehensibly.

The remaining dozens of monsters now, they were cornered in fear, mostly depleted by Raphael and Leonardo.

Some of the troops were seriously injured, some were even killed, I could not see it...

"Jeez... How about this?" Leonardo scratched his head.

"We have to search this place." Raphael was still standing upright beside Leo's left, his body not moving at all.

"You're right..." Leo nodded, then turned his body.

In front of him, there were a total of seven soldiers who died, pierced, decapitated, horrified as I saw them...

"This is all for the sake of our soldiers, we must find the reason behind this attack. You guys realize all the weird stuff, right? There are new monsters we have never seen here, and this monster's nest is too small. There's a lot of very strange things here.maybe we can find some more clues about the monsters..." Leonardo looked back and forth, some looking down at the drooping corpse.

"Fale." Holy hooch! Raphael was suddenly beside me!

"ah! Why...?" I'm appalled.

"Sorry, your hand is.. Are you okay...?" He stared at my left arm in focus, pierced through. It hurts, it does, but my attention was distracted earlier when Raf suddenly massacred many monsters.

"Yes.it's okay, I guess..." I lifted her up with difficulty, looking at her worriedly.

"You just wait here, me and Leo want to search this place." Raphael patted me on the shoulder, stood up straight, then walked away, checking in all directions.

I tried to stand up, but I couldn't...

Shit, I'm so weak...

The rest of the nine of us were still conscious.Eight of them walked to and fro, looking at all the parts of the room they could, only I sat staring everywhere like a madman...

I have to get stronger...

SRING! Some monsters were killed by Leonardo to check the rooms that blocked their bodies.

"empty..." Leonardo said flatly.

To my right, one of the soldiers cut off the heads of the three monsters, then moved forward examining the surroundings.

"There's nothing here..." Said he was worried.

SLASHY! SLASHY! Raphael slashed through four monsters at once, making them into dust, then advanced staring at the empty space.

"Nothing..." He bowed.

This tube room is really a plain black tube, with a height of two hundred meters...

"There's nothing, commander!" One of the soldiers exclaimed, his face heavily disappointed, Leonardo also held back his anger, while enduring the pain after his body was toyed with the monster earlier.

"We'll just finish off the remaining monsters, so that no one else will bother." Raphael gave, straddling near Leo.

"Hold, Raf. Look, all the monsters are scared to see you." Leo pointed forward, towards the dozens of black creatures that were shaking violently.

I tried to stand up bit by bit... succeeded.. then started walking to the left, his body was facing Raphael, not looking at me at all...

I put out a sword, wanting to split it...

SING! I managed to kill one monster, the rest are staring at me right now.

"DO! OHHHH!" The two monsters exclaimed, with a language I could not understand.

One of them jumped at me, SLASH! Successfully cut, the rest of one more.

ACKS! Damnit damnit! My injured hand suddenly hurt again!

A BWUSH! Someone from behind threw his sword, the monster was pierced, then it became dust. The long box fell.

I was facing backwards, apparently one of the soldiers helped me.

"Thank you..." Oh, my God, thank you three times...

I took her long box, gave it to her.

"Yes..." He retaliated.

Trouble trying to stand up, it finally worked. I approached the place I wanted to go...

Wait... What is this? Below, there was a small, cream-colored paper.

"Leo!" I cried out, everyone sees me.

"You found something?" Leonardo walked over, his eyes fixed on the paper, then picked it up.

Leo's eyes were really meticulous looking at all the dots on the paper, usually at times like this, he couldn't be spoken to.

"What did you find, Fal?" Raphael and the entire army started moving towards me, similarly, staring at the map.

"It looks like it's a map, but I'm not too sure." Reply embarrassed.

After a few seconds Leo's eyes moved everywhere, he exhaled.

"Everyone.we are in great danger..." Leo said worriedly.

"Dead." The paper was the same length and width as my head, not too big, Leonardo laid it down, we all stared at it.

There was a map of the country we were living in, I forgot its name. Uniquely, our country is divided into several regions with the name of the direction of the wind. East Region, Southeast Region, South Region, Southwest Region, West Region (where I live now), Northwest Region, North Region, and Northeast Region. There were only eight places divided here, and the shapes also tended to be circular, so it was easier to remember.

"This is where we are now, the lair of monsters." Leo pointed to a small black circle between the yellow images, signifying the headquarters of these monsters and the sand streets.

"See these signs, dozens, all of them. They lead to this picture!" Leo continued, God, I just realized there are a lot of black dots showing the nests of monsters! And all of them have red arrows that lead to the gray rectangular image in the center of the map! Don't-don't...

"Damn..." Raphael snorted, he already knew...

"God, that's a lot! There's an abundance of monster nests that we don't know about!" Said one of the soldiers.

"That's not the worst part..." Leonardo stood upright, stretched his body, exhaled heavily.

"They're planning something big, something terrible, that's detrimental..." The other soldier exclaimed, his face extremely scared.

"True..it is not the only nest of monsters. and they all plan to attack us, dozens of monster nests with all their contents want to slaughter us at once..." Leo replied casually.

That is why there are so many strange monsters that we have never seen popping up. It also explains why the Fedora Hats Monster is not here!

My happiness has not materialized yet.The monsters are still there, probably more than I thought...

"What should we do now?" I asked Leo.

"Of course, we should report it to the Great General. He of all people always knows what to do." He relaxed back.

"And so, we have to exterminate all the monsters here." Leonardo took out his light sword, SLASH! Then it quickly cut through dozens of monster bodies.

***

Today it is finished.The mushroom house is no longer filled.

Everyone who fainted was immediately taken in by the aid, Leonardo helped them even when he himself was severely injured.

The fight is over, everyone is safe.

Unfortunately, my misery is only about to begin. All the monsters, all of them in great numbers, will attack us, a bigger battle will come someday...

"Fal, Raf..." Outside, we were about to report to the headquarters, suddenly Leo called us.

"Yes?" My body was sustained by Raphael, he helped me walk.

"Everything will be dangerous after this, so I want to ask, replied with full confidence. Do you still want to be soldiers? Or will you be an ordinary teenager who can pursue his goals? Surely you are still provided home and food by us. So it's up to you guys..." Ask Leo briefly.

...

My goal is not to die. I have to kill him...

"I still want to come!" Exciting spirit.

"Hey! It hurts!" Raphael covered his ears.

"Oh, sorry." Hahahaha.excuse me, Raf...

"Well, who will protect Falisha besides me? There aren't. So I want to be a soldier." Raphael answered.

"Eh, I don't need any help from you, yeah!" I mind.

"Ah, masa~" He's a nosy smile, I want to snap his head...

Leo seemed to think, then he stood up straight again.

"All right..." He smiled proudly, patting my shoulder and Raphael.

"Now, go home and rest, thank you." He rules, then moves back forward. Raphael and I nodded, agreeing.
