The hunt in the cave went well. Tihana clearly wanted to sohow make up for her response to what happened with the group we encountered before going underground, so she fought to the best of her ability. I also observed a lot of anger in her movent, which ant that she was tearing through those poor goblins.
Deeper, I had to assist a few tis, mainly using 'Telekinesis' to push the annoying green shorties back a little bit, so they wouldn't overwhelm her.
The only problem I noticed, in how she fought, was the fact that she wasn't used to power and speed, and that led to many mistakes. She was inefficient, but overall quite good. Even fighting the boss was not a problem for her. Although the asshole managed to pierce through her shield, almost injuring her terribly, the sword strengthened with my Ki was able to handle his attacks, and she switched more to parrying, then utilizing a single opening, finished the duel.
She definitely was stronger and faster, but the difference in skills was on the goblin's side.
Loaded with crystals, we returned.
A welcoming committee was waiting for us on the edge of the forest. It was the sa assholes who I have beaten up, but now they had a few more guys, ard with decent-looking weapons. Definitely magical.
They seed to be so hunters who were doing quite well for themselves.
- I'll handle it - Tihana said when it beca obvious that the group is waiting there for us.
- No. I'll do it. You are tired from all the fighting. I know you want to make up for what happened, and show that you can stand up for yourself, but... Not only do those guys look like too much for you, but also you should take it slow. There have been enough emotions for today. Just so you know, I'm not doubting you, but I also can't allow the anger to push you into doing sothing stupid. Ok?
She hesitated for a mont, but then nodded firmly.
Silent, we both kept walking, until we stopped in front of the group of a total of twelve people.
- I warned you - said the fancy boy who threatened with his father before. - Now you will pay back for the humiliation.
- If you think I'm scared, then you are wrong. If you really believe I'm gonna pay for anything, you are also wrong. If you think you are gonna kick my ass here, you are still wrong. I don't know those guys you brought here, but I can promise you, that they are not good enough.
- There are five B-rank hunters here. Even if you are an A rank, you stand no chance - one of the five new guys inford . - Give up, apologize, and we will go easy on you.
- See? I warned you. My father is a very influential and wealthy person. Now you will have to go on your knees and beg - added the wealthy brat. - As for your big-mouthed girlfriend, if she entertains , I'll forgive her.
A nasty grin appeared on his face.
- First of all, she is my daughter, and if you indicate anything sexual sohow connected to her again, I fucking swear, I'll rip off your limbs one by one, so watch your fucking mouth. As for the ranks, and other bullshit, from the very beginning I was telling Will that it's stupid, so I am unranked, and I will remain unranked. As for the one who will be begging, it will be you. You will be begging for rcy. Are we clear? - I asked. - If we are clear, then I'm willing to give you a second chance. A chance to turn around, and leave.
Will's na caused a bit of fear in the B-rankers as I noticed them exchanging looks.
- Like sobody of your sort could know mister William - the brat snorted. - You are a goblin chaser. You are a nobody.
- Shut up! - Tihana snapped.
I turned around to look at her. As our eyes t, she clearly understood that there was no need for her to butt in.
- You are going to be sucking us all off with that dirty mouth of yours - the brat decided to say.
The grin was still there.
- Look away child, look away - I said to Tihana as I stepped forward.
It made one of the B-rankers react. He was ard with a spear, and rushed forward, then jumped to attack . His speed was impressive, but the problem was that he never landed, so the attack couldn't reach . I held him up using 'Telekinesis', just like I held everybody else in the group.
- I warned you, but you didn't listen, now you have to face the consequences - I said, looking straight at the brat.
To create a stronger effect I used 'Eyes of the void, and a bit of 'Shadow fusion', just so my hair changed, and so of the veins beca black.
His eyes went wide, and I saw the fear being born deeply in his mind. Shortly after, it overtook him completely, spreading like a virus.
- Tihana, look away. There will be violence - I warned her again since she didn't listen the first ti.
This ti, it worked, and she turned to us with her back. Since they couldn't move, I took my ti getting to the clearly wealthy leader of the group, enjoying how scared I made them. Then, with a swift move, I attacked his shoulder, piercing through the armor, and flesh, all the way to the bones. I tore away his whole arm, making him scream in agony.
Then I blocked the bleeding, using 'Telekinesis' to apply pressure on all the necessary veins.
- I keep my promises - I said to him. - But since my daughter is here, I won't push it any further. This ti, that is. Next ti, there won't be rcy.
Then I healed him, making the whole hand rapidly grow back, surrounded with a light blue glow.
- Oh, and please keep in mind, that if you ever talk to anybody about , or my daughter, I will find you even at the very end of the world, and I will be the last person you et in your life if you catch my drift - I added as I turned around to Tihana. - Let's go. I'm hungry
She was hesitant to face , as she probably expected a lot of blood, but the whole arm on the ground got snatched by one of my shadows straight to The Void, where it turned into nothing. The only mark was a bit of blood, on the grass, and the fancy armor of the brat.
Then we left, but what I did, left a mark on Tihana. Sothing I imdiately retreated, and knew I will have to deal with as soon as possible.
