Few minutes earlier….
In a certain part of forest a battle was going on
Several monster beasts were surrounding 5 peoples from all direction,
But the thing that need to be noticed was all these monster beast were of different kind
it wasn't rare for monster beast of same kind to attack in groups but different type of monster beast forming groups to attack someone that's unusual
If one looked like a lizard then the other was like a wolf and monsters of different kinds usual never forms groups at least when they doesn't high intelligence
Suddenly the monster beast moved and gave way to a man
The man was wearing black dress and half of his mouth was hidden by a black cloth when he looked at the 5 people surrounded by his monsters he sneered at them
The group of 5 people consisted of three girls and two boys, at a closer look one would discover that these 5 people looked a little different from humans
Out of three girls one was very young she looked like a little girl less than 10 years old she had squirrel like ears and furry tail behind her, she had a dagger in her hand and was looking at the men in black with anger
The other two were older than her one of them had bear like ears, brown eyes and a tail she held a long two handed sword in her hands
The last girl was the most different, the upper half of her body looked pretty normal
Except that she had few light green streaks of hair mixed with her black hair, she had dark green eyes and light green fin like ears
But her lower half was that of a snake she had a snake like lower body instead of legs her tail was covered with light green scales but most of which was dyed red right now because of the blood coming out of her wounds
At present she had many injuries on her body her cultivation base was the highest that's why the monsters focused much more on her compared to others and the fact that she was also standing in front of all other four people to protect them also added to it
The other two boys were of same race they had scales on some parts of their body and a lizard like tail one of them was wielding a spear and the other had an axe in his hand
All of them had injuries on their body its just that some had much more serious injuries like the snake girl while the others were a little better than her because she was fighting most of the monsters on her own
All five of them were from Beast Race and the man in black dress was a monster tamer
Those who could tame monster beasts and use them in battle are called Monster Tamers, it is more like a battle class rather than a profession that's why it doesn't have any stages as long as someone could use a monster to fight they are monster tamer whether the method they use is good or bad
"Hahaha.. Junior brother was right there was indeed a snake girl in your animal group..i struck it rich this time" The man in black dress laughed at them
"You don't go to far.. you are fighting us in forest don't you know what will happen if the king of the forest got angry" The snake girl said in anger
"Hahaha do you think you can trick me with that.. it never attacked you animals here then why would it attack me.. we have already found out it won't do anything as long as we won't enter in inner zone or try to claim land in outer zone of the forest… that's how you all survived in the forest right
Let me tell you something your whole group just have few days to live after that you will become the stepping stone for our Monster Hunting Sect" The Man laughed at her
The expressions of all five people were grave when they heard it
{I will hold him for a while you all attack the wolf it is the weakest it will give you an opening then run away without looking back} The snake girl sent a message to all four beside her
{Big sister we won't do that} The youngest girl retorted
{Ria its too much its my fault that we all came here in the first place if i escaped without you then i won't be able to face anyone in the village}The girl with bear ears said
{Kaira is right we can't do that, think about your sister in the village.. and you can't stop them with your current injuries let me and Derek do it you already know that our defense is our specialty all three of you escape from here and alert everyone in the village so that they can migrate before its too late} The lizard man who had axe in his hand said
Derek who had spear in his hands also nodded when the other lizard man said it
{Because of my tail i am the slowest out of us all that's why let me stay here i have very low chances of successfully escaping its better if you all run away.. Coco follow the orders of big sister Lily} Ria said as she looked at the youngest girl
{Bu i am no…} Coco quickly shook her head sideways and said
{There are no buts} Ria interrupted her
When they were discussing the man in black noticed it and spoke again
"If you are still thinking about escaping then give up or even if you somehow managed to escape you all can't escape at the same time and i swear if i catch you while escaping specially you green snake then i will skin you alive..
A snake girl is rare on the market whether it is dead or alive you understand what i mean right.. its better if you all surrender yourself i promise i won't kill you at the very least" The man in the black dress said
'I don't care if these two lizard man dies their hard scaled skin is more than enough to pay the price but this young girl and the other one beside them would have a high price on the market
As for this snake girl her skin is already damaged i can't afford to damage it more or it will lower the price…but tch tch what a face and body she has it won't matter much if the product is a little used hehe' He thought
Ria was just thinking how to let others escape but suddenly her ear twitched a little
Because of her race she has enhanced hearing senses and due to that she heard Rex's echoing voice when he shouted 'good morning jungle'
Ria's eyes shined she inhaled a lot of air then shouted at the top of her lungs
"Heeeelllllllppppppp" (Ria)
"Haha… do you think someone in this forest will come to help you…or that king of yours will come here itself" The man in black smirked at her
The other four were also confused by her behavior
When everyone was distracted the man in black signaled one of his monster beast to attack
A big wolf like monster beast quietly stepped forward
When Ria noticed it the wolf quickly increased his speed then leaped at her
When the wolf was just 3 meters away from Ria in the air he opened his mouth wide like a sacrificial bowl but suddenly at this time a silhouette appeared just few inches on its right side
The wolf suddenly noticed it but he didn't even had time to do anything because the silhouette was in motion and it directly crashed into the wolf
The wolf wasn't able to resist that much force so it crashed into the trees with the silhouette
'Don't tell me its reinforcements from the village… but how, should i escape? but if i can at least get this snake girl then i could get enough resources to breakthrough to Human Venerable late stage' The man in black dress panicked
Rex stood up and looked around he found out that a big furry wolf was lying unconscious below his feet
'Thanks brother you saved me from crashing into the trees your soul may rest in peace..Amen' Rex prayed with both of his hands joined together
[He is not dead and you need more practice if you want to control your newly gained strength]
'I know now stop lecturing' (Rex)
Rex then jumped off the wolf's back but then his eyes landed on the man in black dress
But he didn't looked like he was in any kind of danger so Rex looked at other side and found out the five Demi-Humans that were surrounded by monster beasts
