“How dare you point a weapon at me, Man.”
The woman's voice was hoarse and somewhat rough like the sound of iron creaking sounded. Reyna and Murasaki stared at the creature with a look of disbelief on their faces.
“Is this what you call a guard?” Reyna couldn't help but ask.
“...”
For a girl who had never seen such horrible things, Murasaki could only fall silent.
Reyna herself is also lacking in experience. But his own knowledge is very good. Plus his strange nature, he was not so frightened to see a creature that had never been seen before.
‘Rather than guards, this creature looks more like Lamia, Medusa, or some other creature. However ...
In addition to his overly poor appearance, the lower half of his body was definitely not a snake.’
Looking at the creature in that was several meters in front of him, Reyna tilted her head.
“Melut?”
As if what Reyna said was a forbidden word, the creature's tail instantly swung and shattered the nearby rocks.
“How dare you!”
A shrill cry rang out as the figure of the half-human creature shot towards Reyna.
The girl's expression instantly turned more serious. He immediately hugged Murasaki, carried her on his shoulders and retreated. Although Murasaki's body is almost the same as her, Reyna can really take it so casually.
After dodging several attacks, Reyna who managed to escape and finally took down Murasaki, then gazed towards the humanoid monster in front of her with a calm expression.
“As I expected. This eel, even much worse when compared to Lamia and other stronger types.”
Hearing Reyna's words, the creature was suddenly stunned for a moment. After a while, both corners of his lips rose all the way to his ears, displaying a wide smile that looked terrifying. Then, he suddenly laughed out loud.
“Hahahaha! So so! Apparently so!
I, Ouraya did not expect that luck had sided with me. Heroes ... heroes in legends actually appeared in front of me!
After eating it, my speed of breaking through the boundary will become even faster. I'll catch up with those shitty creatures! Make them regret for wasting me!
Hahahaha!”
On hearing Ouraya's words, Murasaki immediately looked towards Reyna with an expression of disbelief. He became excited, but his expression again changed when he felt the pressure from Ouraya's body.
Compared to the monstrous-looking creatures that only attacked with visuals, the current appearance of Ouraya changed completely.
Ruffled and wet wavy long hair floated. His body became slightly larger, his hand muscles swelled up and his nails grew long. The creature smiled to show off a row of dagger-like sharp teeth.
“Do you know why from the beginning I was just silent and did not directly attack with all my might, Man?”
“...”
Reyna was silent, but her expression became more serious. He really did not expect that the ugly-looking creature in front of him was even stronger than him.
Meanwhile, Ouraya again laughed before explaining.
“Because it's fun!”
“Fun?” Murasaki muttered in disbelief.
“Beating people who are trying to fight. Break their bones. Make them desperate.
That was really fun!
Not to mention if that person was strong enough to fight back. After a few rounds of fighting, they thought they had a chance to win. But at that moment, I finally showed my true strength.
Looking at the shocked and desperate expressions on their faces ..”
Ouraya laughed out loud before shouting like a mad woman.
“IT FEELS SO MUCH FUN TO THE POINT THAT I GET EXCITED!!!”
“Then I will also be more serious.”
Saying that, Reyna instantly changed the horses. The sword in his hand was instantly surrounded by blue energy like flowing water.
“Northpoint Snake Style, 1st move .
Reyna rushed straight towards Ouraya. Seeing the tail whip that was pointing at him, the girl immediately dodged. He leaped towards his opponent then made a piercing motion in the air.
“One Head Azure Snake!”
The sword energy from Reyna's sword was instantly shot towards Ouraya. It instantly formed into a thigh-thick blue snake that opened its mouth and charged right towards Ouraya.
A BANG!
Explosions are created and dust flies. Just then, the sound of Ouraya's laughter was heard again. When the smoke subsided, they all saw the figure of the creature that was still in its place. Although there seemed to be some frost on some parts of his body, he did not care at all.
Moments later, the ice on Ouraya's body melted. Seeing that, Reyna's eyes narrowed.
“How can? That must be what you're thinking, right?
Answer's simple. Because you are weak. Even though the techniques you use are high-level techniques or so, your mastery is still too poor and your cultivation level is far from mine. Not to mention, the race difference.
Normally, a human cultivator could only defeat beings below his own level as it was extremely difficult against creatures of the same level as him. After all, humans were more vulnerable compared to other races.
“Moreover ..”
Ouraya rushed straight towards Reyna. His right hand instantly swelled up, the muscles bulging on his thin body, the creature's claws becoming longer then slashing towards the girl.
Swooshes!
Reyna immediately avoided. His movements were quite fast, but his expression instantly changed when he landed. A slash scar appeared on the right side of his waist. Moreover, his body suddenly tingled.
“Hahahaha! Do you realize something?”
Saying that, the fingers on Ouraya's right hand moved in a strange manner. Not only that, a dark purple energy coated his right arm, and several small lightning bolts danced around him. If they don't pay attention to everything, they won't be able to see it.
Seeing Reyna's expression change for the worse, Ouraya smirked.
“Hahahaha! Game just started, Little Girl.”
***
About an hour later.
Reyna's figure held the handle of the sword with both hands. The girl's appearance looked bad with many scars on her body. In addition, his breathing was already unstable, his eyes looked faint and his body looked limp. He stared at Ouraya with a stern expression, completely invisible to giving up.
On the other hand, Ouraya herself also had some injuries on her body. Even so, the creature is clearly many times better than Reyna. He looked at the girl with a grin on his face.
“Truly stubborn girl. How about giving up? If you give up, I will give you an easier death.
Besides, if you give up, I will release this village. As long as it eats you, I will become stronger. That way, I can go back to where I came from. Back to revenge.”
Hearing that, an expression full of doubt appeared on Reyna's face. He was clearly having trouble fighting Ouraya. Thinking of her friend, the girl hesitated. Just then, a black figure suddenly emerged from the sky, fell down and landed exactly a few meters between Reyna and Ouraya.
“Gosh .. appearance looks so messy.”
A careless and careless voice sounded. Looking at the back not far from her, Reyna muttered softly.
“Arthur ..”
“If you are to die. I'll owe you, and it's not a good thing. You can't fight anymore, just back off with Murasaki and Midorima. Aoi is fine. The rest ..”
Arthur pulled his sword. The relaxed expression on his face gradually turned cold. Gazing towards Ouraya, the young man said.
“Let me take care of it.”
