Chapter 16 - Asuka's death.

Asuka couldn't help but stare in fear, she really didn't expect that the giant beast was still alive after receiving a crushing blow from its comrade's crushing flames.

The smoke that covered the giant beast's body began to dissipate and now she could see what was happening.

The giant beast's body was extremely hard and its comrade's attack only left scorch marks in some places on the giant beast's body, while the other half of the body was in the ground and connected to Asuka's feet.

Seeing that Ken became very worried and intended to help Asuka, but it was too late because the giant beast's leg contained poison and had pierced Asuka's leg.

Now Asuka could barely feel her legs, she really couldn't move them, at the same time the flying beast was only 5 meters above her, and Asuka glared at her in fear, her legs had been completely paralyzed by the giant beast's venom.

She knew now that death was in front of her eyes, Asuka's eyes began to dim, just as she used her last chance to turn to Ken, tears had rolled down Asuka's cheeks, and she forced her last smile on Ken.

Ken who saw that could only stare in despair.

Asuka's body was instantly torn apart, leaving only a portion of the body and a pool of blood, while the flying beast instantly returned to its starting position after successfully killing Asuka with its sharp saw-like beak.

"Asuka..."

Ken and his colleagues immediately screamed when they saw Asuka who had been killed so horribly and left only a part of her body.

Seeing that Ken immediately collapsed, and knelt on the ground as if he had lost a part of his soul, he never expected that the person closest to him would die in front of him so tragically.

His other comrades started to panic, moreover, 2 wild sword-toothed wolves were attacking them, and when the two beasts saw Ken who was desperate, the two beasts immediately turned to attack Ken.

"Ken, watch out!"

Ken's partner who wielded a silver spear saw that and immediately jumped behind Ken to protect him.

The two sword-toothed wolf beasts groaned and continued to push the silver spear wielder magician who blocked his attack.

The silver spear-wielding mage was instantly pushed back two steps, he could barely withstand the attacks of the two sword-toothed beasts.

While the others couldn't help as they were faced with giant centipedes and flying beasts as well.

"Ken, what are you doing? We're still in battle" The spear wielder mage said firmly while biting his lip, but unfortunately it was Ken who had been swept away in grief and despair by Asuka's death, and it made him pay no attention to anything anymore.

Realizing this, the spear-wielding mage could only clench his teeth in annoyance, with all his might he immediately pushed the two sword-toothed beasts away.

Although he couldn't injure the two sword-toothed beasts, he could at least throw them up to several meters.

"Arrrgh... Rrrr".

The two beasts groaned again and began to separate themselves to surround the magician wielding the silver spear.

Then at the same time, the spear-wielding mage saw one of his comrades move towards him, "Protect the chief, I will try to suppress them". Said the spear-wielding mage quickly as his comrade drew near.

"Mmm, I understand". The mage holding the wand nodded quickly, then he looked at Ken who was still kneeling like a statue with a blank stare.

"Damn, this is really bad". Their current state was being cornered and their formation had been shattered, plus now their leader wasn't even reliable anymore.

The situation put them all in great danger, sooner or later they would not last long.

Thinking of that the spear-wielding mage immediately looked at Ken sharply and coldly, he stood in front of Ken in annoyance.

"Plaack".

Without thinking he immediately slapped Ken hard, Ken who was treated like that was very angry, especially his heart situation was really in a state of chaos.

Unknowingly he immediately stood staring at the wand-wielding mage angrily and subconsciously swung his big hammer at his comrade.

Luckily the wand-wielding mage managed to create a defensive magic circle to block the big hammer's attack, but he was still thrown up to 2 meters and fresh blood was trickling down the corner of his lips.

But instead of being angry, the magician who was holding the wand smiled, "Ken, you finally realized it." He said weakly and his eyes dimmed limply.

Hearing that Ken immediately realized fully, "What have I done?". Ken muttered with his eyes bulging in confusion, and the big hammer in his hand immediately dropped and immediately helped his comrade who had just been hit.

"Gong?".

Gong who almost fell was immediately supported by Ken, "Gong, are you okay?". Ken asked quickly.

"How can I be okay if I get hit by your attack". Gong said quickly.

"Sorry".

Ken bowed his head in regret, now is not the time to apologize, we have to help the rest of the friends, I know you feel very lost with Asuka's death.

You and she have a very close relationship, we also feel the same way, look at Marco, he also lost his only sister right in front of him, but he can't stay in prison by his sadness.

Ken, we still need you, if you can't hold on, we'll all die too." Gong said weakly as he looked at Marco who was battling two sword-toothed wolf beasts.

Marco's younger sister also just died while attacking the beasts flying that fell earlier, he was the bronze spear wielder.

Knowing that, Ken closed his eyes and started to calm down, he tried his best to bury his memories with Asuka which made him really down.

"I'm really sorry, I just feel useless for failing to protect the person I love the most. Gong, help me, let's get rid of that bastard beast, we don't need to hold back anymore,"

Ken said calmly, his gaze fixed on the flying beast who was fighting against his comrade.

Now there are only five of them, 2 of his comrades have been killed by a giant centipede and also flying beasts.

"Ken, it seems the two of them can still balance against flying beasts as well as those giant centipedes, we should help Marco first, he looks very difficult to deal with two sword-toothed beasts at once," Suggested Gong who could see Ken's great desire for revenge against the flying beast.

"I understand, we will not have a chance to attack the flying beast if we don't unite to defeat this jerk wolf, we will kill this saber-toothed beast first," Ken replied.

At the same time, Ken felt a signal in his head, it was from the white-bearded elder, "Ken, I'm almost reaching the edge of the forest, you just hold on for a few minutes." The voice of the elder in Ken's head.
