The beast was lying down Conan quickly moved and pinned down the beast, putting his right leg on the tail of the beast so that it could not use its main weapon. Conan was a little grossed out because of touching the head of the beast which was slimy. Ben started to get closer when he was assured that Conan had pinned down the beast properly.
" I can't believe it was this easy, hurray!" Ben celebrated.
" I am going to take this thing off him, I don't know what it does but I have a bad feeling that this could not be this easy. Having his crystal taken off will weaken it to a great degree." Conan explained what he was going to do.
" Wait, won't this thing die if we take the crystal off his body?" Ben asked.
" I don't think it's his crystal, it's too big and maybe it was just merging." Conan readied his dagger and was about to kill the beast.
" STOP!!" Someone yelled, " Stop or you will be executed."
They noticed more than ten people coming in from the direction from where the beast came.
" If you kill that beast, we will kill you." It was an Old man wearing the uniform of the guards, " Hands up, and back away from the beast." He ordered.
Conan looked at Ben who was hiding his Gun behind his back, it was illegal to use a firearm and Ben may be more heavily punished for this than for trying to poach the beast. Ben quietly backed off, seeing this Conan also didn't try to put up any resistance and quietly backed off.
Both of them were ten steps away from the beast and with their hands raised. They saw the guard coming to inspect the beast, after several checks one of the guards nodded in as if affirming something.
" The beast is Alive, report this to Captain and put that beast in a cage." The guards quickly opened a portable cage which looked like a suitcase before.
" Who the hell are you brats?" The old guard asked while putting his hand on his sword.
Ben was silent, the guard was trying to threaten their life with his sword half drawn out. However, Conan narrowed his eyes and again took out his daggers, no longer putting his hands up in the air.
" Trust me, I will kill you if you take out your sword." Conan clearly said those words which were heard by everyone but the Old guard still took out his sword.
' Conan, You stupid psycho.' Ben grit his teeth, he was not ready to fight the guards.
" You want a fight, bring it." The old man readied himself for the fight as he pointed his sword toward Conan. The old man moved faster than an old man would be capable of doing and as he got close to Conan, he swung his sword directly for the neck.
* Clank.*
Conan just stood and received the attack while just standing there, he blocked the attack on his neck with the daggers he had. It made the old man back off because of being startled suddenly by how Conan reacted.
" Who are you?" The guard shouted in surprise, even Ben was surprised by how casually Conan had stopped the attack. Seeing this he also took out his potato gun from his back and aimed it toward the person holding the cage.
" Bam!!* The little round ball in the potato gun directly hit the chest of the man holding the cage as he wasn't able to evade the attack on time.
' This boy is dangerous, he didn't even flinch but I also have a trump card, I can use the light now.' The old guard thought as he readied his sword and moved forward again. However this time his swords shined, and his body moved faster than before but something he didn't expect happened, Conan moved skillfully and evaded his attack and the next moment.
" Argh!!" The old man's hand went flying, it was separated from his arm. " Argh!" The old man fell to his knees after Conan used the dagger to also cut through his stomach area and then on one of his legs.
" We will peacefully leave, don't bother us if you want to live," Conan said and looked towards the ten guards that were standing behind to protect the beast. They were still unwilling to give away the beast because they had already reported it to their captain.
Ben quickly went where Conan was, to save himself. The old man was almost dying in front of them so one of the brave guards stepped forward to help.
" We will not harm anyone let us leave, as my friend just said." Ben tried to convince the guards but the guards were slowly surrounding them. It was at this moment that Ben also noticed something else on his goggles, more than 30 guards were coming in their direction.
" Shit, we are fucked!" Conan was also wearing the glasses so he too noticed some more people coming.
' It was weird but these ten guards are not on the radar, are they moving with the trackers turned off?' It was as Ben thought, the trackers were turned off, the only moment when they turned it on was when they contacted their superior.
" HALT!" A loud feminine voice rang through the forest as Yelena came with several guards on horses.
She saw everything and concluded that a fight occurred.
* GHHHECHO!! GHHHECHO!*
The Spirit beast shouted as it awoke once again but this time it was a little different from before. The beast's muscles started to bulge and his face started to swell.
Suddenly it puked a green liquid from his mouth and the cage started to melt.
" GET AWAY! That thing is a level 7 threat." Level 7 meant in the highest ranks among the mid-level threats. Before she could say anything else the beast moved and by spinning his tail he cut through the neck of the guard that was holding his cage before.
The beast moved with greater agility which made it hard for the guards to keep up, it spitted acid and injured the guard while making horrific Ghecko sounds. Suddenly, it noticed the person who had knocked him out earlier, he was looking at Ben warily. It took a deep breath and shot poison at Ben like a bullet.
