Chereads / My Dear Lady Boss / Chapter 33 - Iron Bear (Fifth part)

Chapter 33 - Iron Bear (Fifth part)

The change of the beautiful green scenery and landscape become beyond recognizing in this forest as time passes by, the smell of blood filled the atmosphere in the campsite and its surrounding. It is hard to imagine what kind of battle has occurred in this place without witnessing the actual situation. If there is someone tell her, that there is a battle between a group of people battling a high-level spirit beast and almost all of them got slaughtered by it. Vernora, she might believe it. However, the scene in front of her is contrasted to her imagination, it has created a goose bump all over her body. She has never seen such a reaction from the spirit beasts. It was as if they were possessed by something, and just follow their instinct without caring about death.

-----------

The minefield area becoming shrunk as time passed by, and the smell of blood that was created by those spirit beasts who had lost their lives started to attract more spirit beast from the surrounding area. Now even if they want to leave this area, it has become an incredibly difficult task to achieve with their current strength. But, how can these spirit beasts attract to their location in the first place? Before camping, Carone and Benak always chose an area with fewer spirit beasts inhabitants, the fewer spirit beasts activity in an area the safer it becomes. However, their current situation is entirely the opposite of what they have been thinking. It is impossible for the spirit beasts to gathering in an area without fighting each other but now it was as if their mind is being possessed by something that is far more important than the show cast of their prowess.

-----------

Not a single person will be able to stay calm in this kind of situation, yet Vernora can see that in these three men and a woman team there is only one man who is currently sleeping without caring or knowing what kind of situation he is facing. The other two, a man and a woman, seemed to try to protect the young man in the middle from any spirit beasts that might be able to break their formation. That young man must be someone important to them, he might also be a stupid young master who only knows how to show off his parents or clan in fluent or some sort of that kind. So, the one who created this formation must be the one who is sleeping. As a master, he needs to have at least this kind of arrogance.

However, it is an impossible task for them to defend against the spirit beasts in this kind of scenario. Vernora wants to know how can this formation master solving this crisis. If he were able to solve this crisis, he ought to be able to help her. But, if he could not even solve it, how can be worthy of her time.

-------------

'White Drake, do you have any solution for our situation?' Since this system issued a quest for him, it ought to have taken into account the dangerous situation like this to occur. Because he has a feeling, that it wanted him to grow stronger. Else it will just give this quest when he wakes it up.

'I have, however, since you have made your own choice in forming a group. You have already violated the rule. You are on your own now...'

A cold wind was blowing without knowing when the silence was broken by White Drake's voice again.

'By the way, I almost forget to tell you something important that you need to know, you cannot summon Rosy from now on until this mission is finished. Good luck boy, you better solve your problem faster, I don't want a new host yet. Wait, wait, don't curse me yet, I have something important to finish.' When White Drake finished his last line of words, he takes something out of thin air and plugged it into both of his ears.

Seeing what this little snake doing, even though its body seemed to be ethereal, William's anger finally reaches the peak. If he can summon it outside and hold on to its body, he will slap it until it knows who is the boss.

These spirit beasts seemed to be possessed by something, as most of them looking at William's team with red eyes. 'What should he do? He does not want to die yet, Rosa still waiting for his return. Yet, how can he solve this crisis...

A series of loud explosion occurred again, and at least three or four spirit beasts became disable from this explosion. With the dust filled the surrounding again, and when the dust-covered the air, these spirit beasts seem to have stopped their advance. When William noticed this, he had come up with an idea.

"..."

'What do you want to make? What are you doing? Do you want to die this early?' Seeing what William trying to create, White Drake's series of questions can be heard by William, but he chose to ignore its warning and continue what he intends to do.

'Are you out of your mind?' White Drake continues to pester William with what he is doing.

'Stop disturbing me, I need to focus...' The beard of sweat can be seen on William's forehead with someone who has keen eyesight.

In the third dimension that Rosa thought it was William space ring, there is a series of disassembling bombs that was one created by William in his free time. After doing all of this with his spiritual soul, one again without resting William trying to assemble it with the energy that can create brightness one by one in his possession. He wanted to create blind bombs because White Drake once mentioned that the time in this pocket dimension is different from outside. So, if he wanted to save time and return to Rosa, he has to bet on these new bombs. He failed a few times when he tried to disassemble it at first, but after a few more practice he can finally succeed in doing it.

-------------

Although time was short for a lot of the spirit beasts to gather from the surrounding area in this short span, there are more than fifty by now.

As time passed by, the shrunken area of the defends becomes smaller and smaller, yet the amount of the spirit beasts becomes more and more. The last line of the defense against the surrounding spirit beasts is only less than a hundred feet. From the four-ring areas of the minefield to becoming only one last ring that surrounded to protect their campsite.

Benak, Carone starts to feel a sweat sensation from their back, so today will be the last day of their life. Their life has never been easy since childhood as their clan had fallen into the wicked people's hand. They always wanted revenge for their parents, yet it has become an impossible task now. Carone's gotten his current personality from the side effect a kind of poison, and Benak skinny appearance is also from the very same poison. It is already good enough that they can avoid being dead from it, and it is also a blessing in disguise as the poison had caused their entire appearance to change. The brothers look at each other as this will be the last fighting that they will have together.

Just as they are preparing to charge at the spirit beast, there is a loud sound occurred. Their hearing almost got numb from the loud exploding sound. It is unknown what has had just happened. But, now it is their chance since the spirit beasts that gathered here started to fight each other. Heaven has not abandoned them yet.

"Benak... takes... these... Close eyes..." Without even finish his sentence, William's breathing becomes heavier and lost his consciousness. Now, it all depends on fate whether they die or live.

After received the bombs from William, both Benak and Carone look at each other with a blank expression. What can these bombs do with this kind of scenario? But, what is going to happen will happen? Fate seems to play with them when they finally see a gleam of hope, it takes everything from them again. They don't want to die from these beasts, they have something that has not reclaimed back yet.

"Norandac Brando, this is the name that our father has given to you. It was taken from his and our mother's name combination. At that time, when you were born our family of four is blessed with a halo of light. But, the jealousy in the human heart is a demon that no one can predict." Carone looks at his little brother with a complex expression. William will become their hope in revenge because they can see light when he introduced the new magical lighter and this explosive tool.

Benak takes a deep look at his big brother, this might be their last day of being together. But it is also good, as they will never have to worry about being pursuit again. It just that they haven't cleared the blood debt from that man yet.

"David Brando, it has been a long time since us two brothers called each other by this name. Heaven already blessed me with such a good brother. If there is next life, I am willing to be your little brother again." After saying all of that Benak looks at the bombs in his hands, both of him and Carone already prepared for death since they choose to become an adventurer. Yet, it is a bit faster than expected, without even claim back what once was theirs, he hopes that his parents in heaven will not blame them when they met again.

After holding these bombs for a while, Benak feels his hands a bit numb. It seems to be heavier than what they had planted in their surrounding campsite.

"Carone, William had said something, right?" Benak tried to recall what William told them before he lost consciousness.

"..."

After a while, Carone finally remembers what William told them.

"He said take these and close eyes... Something like that. But, what are we going to do with it?"

After the dust settled, the beasts finally continue to rampant again.

"What are we going to do with them?" Benak asks Carone when they remember that they are still surrounded by spirit beasts.

"You are asking me, and who can I ask to?" Carone looks at these spirit beasts with a blank expression.

"No, I don't mean them. I mean these." Benak shakes both of his hands that currently holding full of bombs.

"NO! No! Don't do that. These things are very dangerous to shake like that." Carone already got heavy sweat from these spirit beasts, but now Benak shaking his hands that hold many bombs. Before the beasts can attack them, they might already die from these bombs.

-------------

Not long after the dust settled, that she can see again the situation in the campsite. When she saw William gives something to Benak and lost consciousness after that. There is only one word in her judgment, it is "Coward." Just as I thought, that young man is spiritless. He cannot even withstand the pressure from these spirit beasts. Why this kind of bravo kid existed everywhere? Vernora continues to observe the party, as she wants to know how this formation master will solve this problem?

Her eyes were almost blind from looking at the campsite direction all of a sudden. What has happened when there is a sudden loud explosion sound? She can not continue to look straight at the place anymore without closing her eyes lid.

-------------

"Just throw them at these spirit beasts, even if we are dead, at least take a few more with us." Carone caught a few of the bombs and throw it at the beasts surrounding them. Just before the bombs land on the ground or those spirit beasts, he has remembered the reminder from William to close their eyes.

"Close your eyes faster, Benak."

"Eh! Why?"

"Have you forgot when we first received the flashlight? Now William has reminded us to close our eyes, so just do it." Without even open both of their eyes, Benak, Carone's eyesight almost blind too. As the light energy released from the bombs is too bright.

"F****, what kind of monster had we follow?" The might of these bombs are stronger than what they planted on the ground. After learning the first lesson, Carone and Benak fighting spirit soar to the sky. They blindfold themselves first before continue to throw it everywhere without wink an eyelid, as an adventurer they had a keen of sense toward any movement in their surrounding.

-------------

"Earthquake! Earthquake!" The sudden loud explosion causing the surroundings to shake violently. The spirit beasts that just arrive all start to run back for their life, it was as if they were no longer seeking what their instinct brought them here in the first place. Suddenly there is a kick from who knows where landed on his butt. No, it is two kick that landing on his butt altogether at the same time.

"Mother f****, who dare to kick this grandpa's buttock. Just wait." Nacorn angry voice can be heard again as he is not fully awake yet.
