Alice attacked. Her eyes were as calm as her aura. She swung her scythe as the dark blade swept toward the snake.
The monster reacted immediately. It twisted and easily dodged the blade. Alice attacked again, but suddenly the snake's tail came crashing down on her. She reflexively raised her scythe above her as she blocked the blow, but she could hardly keep from falling. Her legs trembled, and cracks appeared on the ground.
"Huh, I thought she could easily take a punch like that." Wain muttered.
"Well... She's only fought me before. She's probably not used to fighting against a monster, especially snakes. It has no arms or legs, just a long tail and a pair of sharp fangs. By the way... we might be in trouble..." Ern's eyes went wide.
"What is it?" Erza stared at him.
"Damn, if that snake is poisonous, Alice is going to be bad, we might not have the right medicine."
"Shall we go save her?" Wain hesitated.
