"Usagi-Sama, you need to focus!"
"ngh..!"
"FOCUS USAGI-SAMA!"
"YOU GADDAMN DRAGON!!! I CAN'T FOCUS WITH YOU TALKING!!!" I shouted in frustration, I kept kicking the air even after weeks of training, he said I wasn't ready until I finally mastered the, "bunny arts".
I wonder if that has anything to do with my race? He's capable of killing me with a move of his thumb. So I think it's better if I don't question him too much...
"I-I I mean... All hail the almighty dragon! Such royal and "noble" blood he holds! Behold his graciousness!" I bowed frantically, you could see the tick marks on my forehead though.
"Usagi-Sama..." Mammon sobbed, what the actual fudge is going on? I lifted my gaze only to find a pitiful gaze from the dragon. I got up and sighed, forget about it. I'm not getting on my knees for anyone ever again.
"Hah..."
TWINGE!
that was..! I rapidly turned only to find a man with a dark scruffy beard all up in my face, "!?" When did he get here?! How did I not hear anything? I have to quickly..!
I scrunched up my face and sped backward in a flash, "it seems we have a visitor..." I whispered silently, Mammon had disappeared instantaneously before I knew it. Right...had they seen Mammon he would've been made a beast tamer's slave. This guy looks around level 12? Does that mean he specializes in stealth like I do? Hm...
There was a small faint smile on my face as I darted forward, "Kid, you almost seem like a pouncing rabbit." He cocked his pistol and pointed it at me, "It's not something a beast tamer like me wouldn't notice, Heh," he snorted as he pointed his pistol at me, a spell was concocted as it started.
"Miss, you shouldn't recklessly throw yourself in like that..!" A voice from behind shouted, I could feel a faint aura in front of me, A small body, a familiar scent, and a sweet honey-dripping voice. Zhong Yu..!
"Miss, head out along with your friends!" He'd warned me to be cautious, I felt this awry feeling deep within my heart. I was curious and hurt when he said that, I wanted to help but I wasn't powerful enough yet. I need more power. I need to be able to protect them! Just this once! So please if anyone is out there I want to protect them..!!!
I have to fight because...
"They're my family!" I threw the wet cloth in my fist, I couldn't help it. The helplessness from watching from afar as the people I loved were being hurt, a part of me was being squeezed, "If I'm going to fail, I'll fail splendidly. If I manage to succeed, it will be with glamor, but the choice is up to you whether you can see your dreams and goals clearly or not." I muttered silently, everything around me had stopped.
the struggling butler was in despair yet a soft and sad smile was present on his face, I caressed his worn out and tired face. Despite all that training you kept going on while I whined. You sure are strong.
I reached out and pushed the hunter flying across the field, time had come back and was in my favor. That must've been Mammon's doing, right?
Zhong Yu's expression was taken aback as if he started to hold in his breath from the beginning, "Miss..! You should've left!"
"No, Zhong Yu, how could I leave my most dearest friend and butler behind?"
"But he could've hurt you!"
"That waste of oxygen? Never." I spit on his face, I wondered what I'd done right to deserve all this. It's been 10,000 years of mischief and chaos because of me in the forest. It's time we move on, but first of all...
"Kids, you forgot! I am 20 levels above you! To think you were able to catch me off guard for just one second. It was just luck, You're just a weak and stupid lady," He sneered.
"Miss."
"Hm?"
"Let's cut off his tongue along with his arms,"
"Unfortunately, We can't do that," I countered, In fact I had a better idea in mind, I signalled him to move closer, "So what I want to do is..." I whispered, Zhong Yu blinked several times to progress it as he smirked assertively.
The man wondered what they were talking about but it was all to no avail, since in the end, they're just going to end up slaves! I could take that girl as my maid and make her mine. Besides, she was able to push me so far because of sheer luck,. He'd thought sneering, little did he know Usagi's plan.
"All right, you win, Human," I declared as I put my arms up and dropped my small blade that Mammon gifted me, "All of them."
"Hm? Whatchu mean?" I looked at him innocently, he signalled and searched my body for any more, "What's this then?" He said dropping a 20 pound-ish axe. I gulped nervously and smiled, "Ahahaha~ That! It's just--"
"Howddya even keep that thing hidden?" He asked, Zhong Yu watched calmly like always, a small faint smile on his face, there was a gleam behind his back as the hunter fell and wasn't able to keep his balance.
"Nice!" We high-fived each other and smirked, we gave each other that look of mischief, Ah yes...Let's keep it coming.
"AGHHH!!! WH-WHA-WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" He shouted, Of course, it's understandable. He ain't gonna leave any descendants on this land for no one to behold. "Pft..!" I held in my bursting laughter, according to human norms, if you're not fertile, you're not given any alimony if you're married and are not respected by anybody.
"Miss," Zhong Yu smiled with a small blade at hand, "Should we also cut off his tongue?" He gleamed, I gulped and cleared my throat, "Sir Human-Hunter, Please just leave before my butler decides to cut all of your fours," I smiled.
He scurried away with his last words being, "Don't think you'll get away with this!!! I'M GONNA KILL YOU BRATS!!!" Zhong Yu then flung the blade hitting the man's head as blood squirted out like a fountain. Hah...he should've just not said anything. Now he's going to live light-headed the rest of his life like a vegetable and with no hopes of having children at that.
"Huh? Why do I suddenly feel hot?" I felt everything fade black before my eyes, hearing Zhong Yu's shouts and desperate calls as everything became peaceful and silent as I closed my eyes to rest. "Miss..! Usagi!!!"
'He called my name..? This is nice...'
