185 Watch your back, please! part Breaching through the dense vegetation was Bob, the one in best shape among the adventurers and also the biggest which helped a lot in making way. The only downside to it was he was slowly but surely depleting his healthpoints. Everytime he passed through thorny bushes or hard branches, his health took a small hit. Once night started to fall, it was Luke’s turn. He didn’t have the night vision skill, but he did have a torch Ryu handed to him. “It would have…-

184 Watch your back, please! part Bob felt depressed, their current situation was too much for his kind heart to take. He hated seeing everyone suffer, he hated being forced to run away, but what he hated the most was that deep down he knew Luke was right. There wasn’t much he could do to help, he wasn’t a healer and he wasn’t as strong as people thought. He did have the power to break a rock with his fists, but raw power meant nothing when he was at a disadvantage, and unfortunately, he had faced…

183 Watch your back, please! part Anne’s breath stabilized after a fewminutes and Ryu’s face was starting to regain color, but their stamina was completely depleted and couldn’t move at all. Sera was busy taking care of them, but there was no way she alone could do all the work and scanned her surroundings looking for Risa. She would have asked either Bob or Luke, but they were mister Ryu’s friends and she regarded them to be in higher standing that Risa, despite her being her instructor.…

182 Don’t forget the antidote, please! part “Dude, what the shit!” Luke cursed out loud after seeing Ryu jab the venomous stick into his neck and pump the poison gland emptying its content entirely. “Why did you do something like that Ryu!?” Bob couldn’t believe his eyes. Sera was speechless, she couldn’t say a word as her thoughts were flooded by regret thinking she shouldn’t have provided him with the means to take his own life. Ryu’s complexion became pale and his stamina…

181 Don’t forget the antidote, please! part “I can’t do anything, she’s far gone” “That’s what you’re saying, but you still have some mana left, I can see it” Ryu said completely Ignoring the fact that no one was supposed to know that mana could be seen by the naked eye after using a skill. Lea didn’t have the time to ponder if she believed him or not and hurried to reply before facing the consequences. “I do have mana, but... If I keep going I might die, for real!”…

180 Don’t forget the antidote, please! part “Why did we retreat!? did you see the size of those things!? we could have become a lot stronger just by killing them” “Some of us would have become stronger, and the rest would have become food... are you seriously moping about losing the kill?” “It feels like such a loss” Luke pouted but kept running alonside his companions. Anne was in no condition to be running, so she traded places with Sera and now Sera was running besides Ryu.…

179 Run, please! part The answer came with a loud shriek that threatened to burst everyone’s ears. The critter emitted a sound so penetrating, even the heroes were left in a daze for a few seconds. The rock scorpions, having no ears whatsoever, were left unaffected and carried on their onslaught against the defenseless heroes. Thankfully for them, Famine was able to withstand the terrible shriek by countering with one of its own. The wolfish beast grabbed a stunned Ryu by the collar and threw him in…

178 Run, please! part The first to land an attack was Bob, who slammed his warhammer with all his might at a Rock scorpion, leaving but a small dent on its hard shell. “What are you doing Bob!? use a piercing weapon instead! They’re made of rock, try to aim for a weakspot” “I-I don’t have any! I only carry my warhammer!” Bob said in despair, it’s beeb a few times where his warhammer has proved less than effective but he always relied on his strength to overwhelm any opponent.…

177 Run, please! part The first beast to appear in front of them was something they had never encountered before, it was an oversized scorpion with a hard stony caparace. Anne was startled by it because, despite being able to see it, she couldn’t tell it apart from a rock even at a close distance. It seemed like a bad start, considering they ran into it almost the second they reached ground level, but it proved to be no challenge for Anne’s quick reflexes. She brandished her spear graciously,…

176 Run, please! part It is said that places where mana overflows are truly magical filled with natural beauty and a sacred atmosphere. Such places do exist in this world, although nobody knows what produces them or how to find them, making it the stuff of old legends that people tend to forget. Unknown to most people, wars have been fought with the sole purpose of controlling such places. It wasn’t just because of the unexplicable phenomena that usually afflicted such places, but also because some…
