Chapter 57: War part 2

-Shit, I must admit that hit took me by surprise, it seems that the defenseless girl has been training. -The man was touching his face while he said these words to Laura.

-Come on girl, are you really angry? I was just following orders, although I admit that I enjoyed taking money from your fool…” The man's words were cut off by a cut from Laura aimed at her face with more force than before.

-Yes, I already knew that, they only follow orders, that's why... -Laura spoke as she continued hitting the man again and again, with her sword, she planned to kill him. -When I finish with you, your boss will be next.

With a murderous look, Laura throws another blow at the man, but he holds it and throws a punch at her. -I really don’t like having to hit girls, but I have no choice, you’ll be a problem if I let you walk around. -The man approached Laura while he was saying those words to her.

-Do you think I’m the same girl as before? -Laura put herself in a kendo stance while looking the man straight in the eyes, she trained a lot for this moment, she didn’t plan to lose.

-Do you think that because you learned to use a wooden sword you will be able to defeat me? Where is your little friend? According to the information I have, that bastard is the leader of this gang, that also makes me wonder what you are doing here, you have a hero tattoo after all. -The man was approaching Laura while he filled her with questions, she also had no idea of Alexander's whereabouts.

-Don't worry, you shouldn't ask about him, I'll be the last thing you'll see. -Laura cut off the talk to attack her rival, who had a great defense, it seems that after the fight against Alexander, the man was getting stronger.

-Shit, it’s just as annoying as the broomstick last time. -Raul blocked the blow with his arms and then punched Laura sending her flying. -Shit. -Laura falls awkwardly to the ground while using her sword to adjust herself.

-You have an incredible attack, but your defense in comparison sucks, I’m surprised you made it this far, your parents always said you were a very weak and delicate girl. -The man was still mocking the girl’s family as he approached, what he said was true, Laura was a girl known for having a weak and fragile body. -Hey motherfucker, stop putting my parents’ name in your mouth.

The girl stood up wiping blood coming out of her nose, she was not going to back down, she was going to win this fight, whether it cost her or not. -I swear that if you do it again I will kill you. -The Heroes member took her stance while looking at the man who was just playing with her.

-Hahaha, I see you have a lot of self-confidence, what will you do? You can’t do anything by yourself, now because of your stubbornness you’re going to die. -The executive of the Black Foxes changed his face to a more serious tone and charged a tackle in the direction of the girl.

(Fuck, I can’t take this lightly, or I won’t be able to avenge my family) -Laura dodges the attack without much trouble and hits the man several times with her sword, her lungs could barely stand the use of her weapon, but she had to use the maximum of her strength.

-Shit, do you think this is funny? -The member of the Black Foxes angrily threw several blows at Laura, which she dodged without much difficulty. -What happened, weren’t you going to beat me up, big guy? -Laura moves elegantly while throwing several thrusts at the man, her movements were comparable to ballet.

-You asked me if it’s fun, yes, it is, beating your face is extremely fun motherfucker!” -The Heroes member was preparing for the final attack, but her legs fail her first. (Shit I got tired) -Laura falls awkwardly to the ground while breathing heavily.

-Finally I got you bitch!” The angry man holds the girl ready for his signature wrestling move. -What are you going to do now? You get tired too fast, maybe I should give you what you deserve. -The man throws the girl hard to the ground destroying her sword in the process.

(Shit, shit, shit) -Laura with the little strength she had left moves away from the man, her sword was completely broken in half, she would have to use more energy if she wanted to win.

-Hahaha, although I don’t like to admit it, you almost defeated me, your thrusts are terrible. -Happy for his achievement, the man held his stomach, if he had lasted a few more seconds, the girl would have finished him.

-I… I’m not going to lose. -Laura awkwardly moved back into position as she was ready to finish the fight, what happened before was just a mistake.

-Wow, it seems that among the Adams, if there was someone with balls, your parents didn’t do anything while we took their money, they were just… -While the man was mocking the girl’s family, a strong pink slash across his face cutting him in the process.

-You bastard!

[Congratulations]

[An ally has gained a new ability on his own].

-I told you if you ever talk about my family again…! Laura shouted at the man who still didn’t understand what had just happened, that cut from before he didn’t see it coming.

-Another cut was directed at the executive member of the Black Foxes which he couldn’t dodge either. -What the hell is going on? -Raul decides to distance himself from the girl while he saw her wounds, the girl’s slashes in front of him only gave him pain, but the last two cut him completely.

-Where do you think you’re going? -Laura looked at the Black Foxes executive with a murderous look on her face, apparently she was serious about killing him.

[The ally’s ability will be revealed]

[Crimson Assassin]-[In a battle emotions are important, but when you just want to kill the opponent you don’t think about anything else. This skill is unique to Laura Adams. If the user holds an edged weapon, his movements will be charged with a murderous intent, which improve attack, speed and constitution, the user will have a percentage called bloodlust, the more he wants to kill the enemy the more this percentage will increase].

[Bloodlust: 5%]-[The more bloodlust the user has, the more deadly and critical his attacks will become].

-I said I was going to kill you bastard. -Laura lunges at the man cutting him several more times, thanks to the fact that the sword was broken in half, it now had an edge. -Do you think it was a joke? Don’t make me laugh. The man tried to defend himself, but he was only cut several more times, the fury that ran through the girl’s body was too great to let him go.

[Bloodlust: 10%]

-I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to… -The man was trying to apologize, but he is pierced by several thrusts from Laura. -I’m sorry? -The Heroes member kicks the man until he crashes into a wall.

-When you were taking money from my parents, did you say sorry? -The girl kicks the man several more times.

[Bloodlust 15%]

-When you fucked up my life, did you say sorry? -The girl was giving several slashes to the man while she was still angry. -No, didn’t you? Then tell my parents, because I’m not going to listen to you. -The girl raised her sword and let fall a perfect slash to the man’s face, who stopped breathing.

[Critical Hit]

[Congratulations]

[An ally has eliminated an enemy permanently]

-I hope they will forgive you. - The girl saw herself in a nearby crystal and decides to wipe the blood from her face and shirt.

(Now follow your leader) -Laura put on her hood while walking, her revenge against the Black Foxes is not over yet.

-Why am I going to tear their heads off, is there anything I don’t know? -The young man who had just entered the room decided to ask his guards the origin of these words.

-No, Sir Duke, nothing is coming up. -One of the knights answered the boy nervously. -No one would hide anything from a Velomht.

(Shit, a Velomht? Is the boss of this dungeon really one of the great families?)

Alexander, still in the dungeon, saw the one he was supposed to face, he would never have thought it would be someone from the big families. -Hey, I think we should go. -Alexander recommended his companions to escape while they had the chance, he didn’t know how dangerous it would be to face such a rival.

-I, I, I… -but when Alexander turned his face he looked at Agnes trembling while Arthur held her in his arms. -Take it easy, we won’t be discovered. -Arthur hugged the girl while he said those words to her.

(What the fuck is going on here? Do they know each other or is something going on?) -Alexander decided to give the couple their moment while he was still watching the duke’s scene.

-Well, I hope so, I’ll go to sleep, when you see Agnes, tell her I’m waiting for her. -The boy said these words to his guards as he prepared to leave.

(I think I should see his strength with “observe” before he leaves) -Still nervous, Alexander decides to use his ability on the boy.

[You have used the skill observe]

[Error]

[The person you’re trying to analyze is hiding his stats.]

(What the fuck? What do you mean by hiding?) -Alexander looked at the boy intrigued, it was the first time the system gave him a message like that. -Well, let’s go, this is dangerous.

Feeling the sense of danger, the trio decided to go back to the garden while they had the chance, unlike the other enemies, the three of them were able to see those guards.

-Okay, I need an explanation. -Alexander looked at Arthur and Agnes with a look of few friends, he wanted to understand why they were looking for the girl.

-Well… maybe… I ran away. -The princess said these words with sorrow, apparently the girl escaped and for that reason the guards are looking for her.

-Well, then let’s take you back to your place (maybe this way the mission will be accomplished) -Alexander, thinking about the system’s mission, proposes this idea, but Arthur stands up at once.

-Hey, don’t say that, Agnes is not going anywhere!” -Arthur shouted angrily to Alexander, apparently the idea of sending her back to the Duke was something he can’t accept.

-Why? There is something you should tell me -Alexander answers the boy and decides to ask, at last he was going to get to the mystery of the mission.

-Well, I’ll explain what’s going on is….

-Here it is!” The boy was about to give Alexander an explanation, but is interrupted by the shouts of several guards.

-Oh shit. -Alexander, seeing the problem, decides to get into combat position. -Will you explain to me after this?

-That’s fine with me. -Arthur pulled out a dagger as he prepared to fight.
