Dawn Of Legend:Rise Of An Extra

97 Chapter 97:Monster Attack



"May God be with you."

"Thanks, Priest!''Frederick bowed his head slightly while signalling Parth to follow suit.

Raising his chin, Frederick asked curiously"Sir, I don't see Priest Joseph out here. Where is he?"

"Priest Joseph! He is a busy man who runs errands for the Lord and loiters around following Lord's guidance."The Priest replied with a smile.

"Did you two come here looking for him at this hour?"

"No…No. We were just passing by here so we decided to pray to the Lord and beg mercy for the sin we might have committed. We are familiar with Priest Joseph so we asked."Frederick waved his hand.

After a short greeting Frederick and Parth walked back.

Passing through the hallway, Frederick stared at the ticking time bomb beside him.

"What grievances do you have with them? Stop showing that sullen expression?"

"There is something amiss."Parth who had been keeping mum throughout the journey muttered startling Frederick.

"What is it?''

"I don't know. Frederick, you go ahead. I will search around a bit."Parth spoke and his figure melting into shadows vanished instantly.

Frederick wiped his sweat seeing this.

"This ability of his is quite fearsome."

...

In an instant, the muscles of the monster's arms stretched to the fullest, and sharp nails glistened in the moonlight shot at Lucas.

He was in a dangerous situation previously, as he was caught in an awkward position making him unable to react properly but this time it was different.

Swish!

The sword cut through the air like a thunderbolt.

A solid line was drawn immediately that cut through the monster in front of him. Time began to flow slowly as if it had stopped.

There was still another one coming from his side. Lucas immediately tried to trace the flow of the sword's path to cut the other but he felt resistant beyond his imagination.

On lowering his eyes, he found the monster that had been cut in half to the waist, gave Lucas a ghastly smile while clutching the blood sword with both hands even if it was on the verge of dying.

It was such a bizarre scene that Roan who was at the back flinched feeling chills creeping down his spine.

The monster that extended its gnarly claws from the side smiled as it had already imagined itself as the winner.

But the next moment.

Blood and brains splattered in all directions followed by the sound of bones breaking.

The monster's eyes widened with horror. However, before it could realise the identity of the object that crushed its brain, it died away.

It was a dagger. The moment the sword was seized by the monster, Lucas threw it away without any hesitation and picked up the dagger.

Seeing the dagger lodged over the head and reaching the brain by shattering the skull, Lucas shed tears of joy. Previously, all his dagger throws were unable to scrap the enemy but because of being made with B-rank metal, it pierced through the enemy's defense without any resistance.

The corners of Lucas's eyes twisted involuntarily seeing the monster's reaction.

"Come on."Lucas waved his head.

The dagger lodged over the monster's head flew back towards Lucas.

Taking on them by himself may be difficult but he has support.

His eyes filled with anticipation turned towards Roan.However, seeing him trembling and twisting in fear, Lucas dazed off.

"What the hell?"

All of his expectations were drowned and thoroughly crushed into mud after noticing Roan shivering like a dried leaf.

He was in no condition to help him.

"Tsk!"

Lucas, without wasting any time on unnecessary thoughts, threw himself and took back the sword that was struck in the thick porous gap caused by the sharp claws.

As always, his fight never went easy.

Twisting his torso, Lucas jumped.

The claws of the gorilla monsters pierced the soft dirt on the ground.

It was the place where Lucas stood before. Spitting a curse, he immediately channelized his mana over his sword.

Seeing a subtle haze rising over the sword, instead of becoming more prudent the monsters ran crazily like a moth to fire.

Lucas felt a headache seeing their weird behaviour. They behaved more like psychopaths than monsters.

Holding his breath, Lucas shot out a silver line.

Tracing a faint line in the air, a dagger shot like a bullet. The target was the gorilla which had nailed to the ground. The strike did not contain much power but it was enough to penetrate the monster's head.

Before Lucas could see the result, his vision was blocked. His sword moved, making a clanging sound.

Sparks flew in the air. One of the gorilla monsters jumped down from the tree and lowered its claws.

Lucas, who just landed, was not able to hold onto the ground firmly, so as he slashed his sword, his center of gravity was quite shaken.

His trajectory faltered a bit while his center of gravity was shaken and the monster gave a unique goofy smile.

'Crazy asshole.'

Lucas snorted and flicked his finger on the other hand.

The gorilla claws which were holding down onto his sword became numb. The expression on his face was distorted as a loud bang was heard.

With a snap, Lucas's gun took another life. The gorilla fell to the ground with a thud.

There were four left.

However, there was no time to rest as the sound of monsters kicking the ground was picked up in Lucas's ears. Three stomping sounds echoed.

Sound from three different directions bellowed making Lucas feel a bit dizzy.

Instinctively, clenching his sword, Lucas hurriedly withdrew his sword and threw a dagger.

The sharp edge of the dagger struck the forehead of one of the gorilla monsters who rushed at him with a cracking sound.

Coupled with the momentum the monster rushed, blood surged through the hole, the dagger deeply embedded in.

A beautiful bloody fountain under the moonlight appeared.

But Lucas did not have time to appreciate it. Another one closing in, attacked and a virtual trajectory appeared in Lucas's eyes.

His muscles were stiff from being tensed. Gritting his teeth, he forcibly twisted his muscles. Lucas's hand moved like a whip. After the fingernail of the monster barely grazed past Lucas's skin, the arm of the monster was grabbed.

A certain memory etched in his muscles flashed over his mind when he was thrown upside down by Julian.

His body reacted instinctively. Each muscle coordinated well with the movements as if they were familiar.

[Reversal Body Slam]

Digging deep into the gorilla's arm, Lucas pulled over the arm over his shoulder with all his might.

The other monster that was rushing towards them from behind screamed in fright seeing Lucas turning towards it.

Startled by the sudden events it tried to react. Seeing the monster's bewildered action, Lucas's lips curled upwards.

It was already too late.

Blood splattered in all directions. The body of the monster Lucas threw was torn apart by the claws of its comrade.

Of course, Lucas did not forget to take special care so that this monster wouldn't feel unfair.

A thumping sound was followed by a shock wave that shook the area. Combined with momentum and gravity, the comrade who brandished his claws had no choice but to be crushed under the corpse. A pitiful bellow echoed through the forest.

The monster was still groaning in pain unable to handle impact. Its vision became dark and before it could recover, Lucas stabbed his sword through the corpse and cracked his head.

It was then, Lucas's senses tingled.

The sound of footsteps echoed and a bad premonition welled in his heart.

It was then he heard a scream.

Taken startled, Lucas turned to look at Roan.

.....

Roan, trying to defend himself by casting a shield, crouched down due to the force of the attack.

The shield cracked and Roan fell back stumbling in his steps.

Hiccup...Hiccup...

Roan trembling hands moved and a gun gifted by Lucas appeared but before he could shoot.

Swish!!!

Moonlight glistened in the air.

Roan reflexes kicked in and he reacted as fast as he could.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Roan groaning in pain, flinched back.

His wrist was cut by the sharp nails of the monster. The gun was thrown away due to the clash.

Roan shrank back, holding his bleeding wrist. If his reflexes were a little late, he would have lost his wrist today.

Roan's heart froze with horror. Overtaken by fear, his mind stopped working and became a mess.

Unable to discern anything, his heart teared up. Couple with unbearable pain, his body trembled and his lips were on his own.

"Please...don't kill me. I...I…"

His sense of reason eroded due to fear and he crouched back.

At that time a giggling sound was heard.

The monster instead of killing Roan smirked and poked its tail at Roan scratching it by a bit to warn Lucas that he would kill Roan if Lucas moved.

Seeing the scene, Lucas's heart churned and his blood surged with murderous intent.
