Meanwhile, Inna's legs completely lost any feeling. And the longer she stared at the team, the more agitated the bear became.
One thing it hated the most was being ignored!
So without any more smugness, it growled loudly before lunging at Inna. But when it was about a feet away from her, Inna's eyes suddenly held a domineering aura that made the bear feel fear. It twisted its body to avoid crashing into her and landed forcefully on the space beside her.
Inna's oppressive aura shot forth and as she gazed at the bear, it involuntarily let out whimpers.
It didn't understand how the human made it feel fear. It was an instinctive reaction.
Knowing that it couldn't defeat the woman despite being hit by his paralyzing poison, it decided to abandon this woman and switch prey.
At the right moment, Renee accidentally stepped on a twig as she tried to drag her loot.
The Bear scampered away from Inna and faced the team, its mood became worse after shamelessly cowering.
It roared loudly before pouncing on her. But before the bear can touch her, George nimbly grabbed her out of harm's way.
"Everyone! It switched targets!" George announced.
"Impossible! It's known to latch on one prey at a time!" Rod screamed in disbelief. From what he knew, Golden Bears will not switch prey until they completely devoured it!
"I don't know what happened but he have to run! Leave half of the loot! It'll be too heavy!" George screamed as he continuously dodged the bear's persistent assaults. He released Renee before he grabbing his sack of loot. After Renee grabbed hers, the whole team started running while the bear was in pursuit.
While all of this was happening, Inna just fully laid down on the ground, her armor filled with dirt and grime. She was now fully paralyzed by the poison. Her wounds are probably infected by now and her blood has been flowing slowly, turning into a pool of blood beneath her.
In a second, Inna felt the coldness in her body gone as she gasped.
God, it fucking hurts!
Back when she was in that weird state, everything felt numb for her. But when she came back, all the pain from her multiple wounds came back at her at full force!
She wanted to scream from the pain but her voice won't come out. Her throat felt constricted, barely making her breathe. Then, she remembered that she can't move any part of her body. The only moveable part she had was her eyes which she used to stare at the direction where the team went.
'I swear to god, if I see those backstabbing bastards again, I'll castrate all of them and let that bitch eat it!'
It'll be lucky if they died, because she'll be able to meet them in Hell!
Those shitass motherfuckers actually dared to trick her for money?
Which book said that the first people they meet when they reincarnate are good guys?!
She vows to slap that friggin' author to death!
She continued her curses as she laid under the open sky. She noticed a tinge of orange from the clouds and knew that it's already dawn.
In her estimation, about an hour has passed. And in that hour, she just kept cursing them in her mind. In fact, she was actually amazed how she never ran out of curses.
Laying down on the dirt, she heard rustling from the leaves and felt tiny vibrations from the ground before hearing a distinct voice.
"Oh? What's this?"
