"Of course not, how could I survive in this damn forest with the little knowledge I have?" Clover laughs lightly, he was about to continue, but Morgan interrupts him.
"Does that mean, you brat will dispose of me after you have the means to survive in this forest, huh?" Killing intent slowly gushes out of Morgan's body, making Clover shiver and sweats appear on his back.
"HA-HA-HA. Of course not how could I betray my benefactor? I still owe you one, and I, a person who always returns what others give to me, either it's good or bad, and of course, you were the good one. After all, you are righteous to me…." Clover continued bootlicking Morgan's shoes. Albeit, Morgan didn't feel any delight in the slightest.
"Stop, Stop. Let's continue back to the topic. Give me the information regarding the killing move or whatsoever you said earlier." Morgan's said while poking his right ear with his smallest finger before sniffing it and showing a disgusting expression. Before looking at Clover solemnly.
"Okay, so here it is. This Move was inspired by your so-called Simplicity. Thus, I decided to use a simple move with a form that would bring out all the force to the body, through the knives and throws it with more precision, which is the pair of eyes, the throat, the heart, and the abdomen.
It will surely kill the enemy. If not…. Then run."
Clover expressed his eagerness and satisfaction for making this move and anticipated that Morgan would agree to test it for him. And as he came to say the latter, he unconfidently ended the sentence.
"Welp, for sure. The more you risk, the bigger the reward. So by risking it, whether this killing move could kill the enemy, then I will rejoice. If not, then I run. That's it." Clover still didn't forget to console his judgment.
"Hmm. Then try to use that move to that tree, given the distance between the tree and you. Fifty Meters is enough if you want to kill your enemy and risk everything on this move. Then you need to use this move, only for a surprise attack. With this, the probability of succeeding will be higher."
For some reason, the foreboding he felt was increasing as the time passed. He hoped to test the Killer Move on that tree, which was bigger and much thicker anyway, so the tree would be fine even if it was penetrated by the flying knives.
Clover sees no problem showing this move to Morgan, which could also prevent killing him. He complied.
He faced the tree, which was fifty meters away from him. He took a deep breath while both of his hands were readying his throwing form.
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh
Throwing his flying knives respectively to the tree. It only took a blink of an eye, before the flying knives penetrated the tree; as if the trunk were made of tofu.
While Morgan was in awe of the power beneath the throw. Clover, suddenly felt dizzy as he was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, he had still the energy to use his hands to lean on his knee, preventing him from falling to the ground.
Morgan ignored Clover's conditions, for he was checking the trunk that was pierced by the flying knives. The knives only stopped fifty meters away from where the tree, penetrated.
After that, he checked Clover's condition, and he was sure that Clover could not do it the second time. But the foreboding feeling he sensed, didn't vanish. Instead, it only increases as time passes.
"Strange, if this kid wasn't the reason why am I having a bad feeling right now. Then who could it be?" And while he was mulling over, who could be the root of this bad feeling.
Growl~
A soft hungry growl could be heard through his hearing. Turning his head to where the direction, the growl comes from.
What came into his view, was a five meters tall golden lion, with bones protruding on its back. The lion's eye was crimson and its tail was wagging excitedly, as if, a predator encountering its prey to satisfy his stomach.
Though, the lion was still, thousands of meters away from them. The lion was tall and bigger, but the tree was also big, thus not many leaves conceal the size of the lion.
While slowly approaching its prey. Morgan already formed, countless plans on his mind. But first things first, he should need to instruct Clover on what to do.
He turned his head to Clover, who was terrified by the sight that greeted him.
He slowly comfortably said to him.
"Clover, calm down. And take a long and slowly take deep breath with me. Okay." And while he was calming Clover.
Clover whose mind slowly calms down, turned his head to Morgan. As if a soldier, awaiting an order from their superior before going to the war.
"First things first. What you need to do, is to get your flying knives, while I slowly distract that mutated lion, and save your energy for I need you later."
Clover nodded at his instruction and waited for the mutated lion to focus its attention on Morgan. Moments later, he slowly walked toward the flying knives that were hundred of meters away from him.
The reason why he was walking slowly, was for his body was sluggish. The killer Move consumes a lot of energy, physically and mentally. He forgot about that, for he was carried by his eagerness to test it.
Now his plan was to wait to have a chance to use this killer Move to the mutated lion. Though, he was still very afraid as he was shivering from the pressure brought by the lion.
While Morgan slowly walked in the other direction, the mutated lion was putting its attention on him, thankfully.
To survive in the upcoming battle with the mutated lion.
He needed the killing move of Clover. Though, he was still skeptical about it. Because Clover explained already that, this move targeted, the five vital of humans.
So this killing Move of Clover would be useless other than Human. But Morgan doesn't have a choice.
Slowly taking out his new mutated machete, which was also made by the deer's antler. He slowly took a battle stance, while walking around the mutated lion, to buy some time for Clover to recover.
But alas, the mutated lion thought otherwise, and leaped toward him, closing the distance between them. They were thousands of kilometers apart, but as if the leap of the lion, could take half thousands of kilometers away.
So with two leaps. The mutated lion was already, before Morgan. But Morgan also didn't lose out either. Taking the chance, instead of stepping backward, He leaped forward, closing the distance to only a meter between them.
The mutated lion was startled, its pride was broken, the moment an ant challenge him. Furious, it uses its tail, to sweep Morgan's position while in mid-air. It can't bite the human, for it was already before its stomach, so it uses its tail to attack the human.
But instead, the human suddenly jump, as if, he could control his body while in midair. Thus, its tail didn't hit anything.
But instead, it was Morgan, who pierced the belly on the left side of the mutated lion, causing it to cry out loud.
ROOOAAAARRRR!!!
