Roth is sweating profusely. His whole body ran cold and is frozen stiff staring at the pink sweatered masked girl. Every animal instinct in his body is telling him to flee, but he stands his ground. He reaches to his sword ready to fight as his hand hovers over his hilt. "Awwwwww, That's so sweet. Most usually run away from me. You got guts, I like it!" As she creepily giggles.
"And who might you be. Most usually ask questions before attacking somebody." As Roth questioned with a slightly shaken voice.
The Pink sweater girl front flips off the tree and perfectly lands on both feet. "Oh how rude of me! My name is Frida. Just your cute, adorable princess at heart." She lifts her hand next to her mask where her eye should be as if she was making a peace sign. But with the excessive sleeves covering her hands, it was difficult to make out what she was doing. She places her hands behind her back and teeters back and forth on her toes and heels. "So you're the one who killed all those men back at the fort. Hmmm, looks can be deceiving but you're tiny to kill that many men."
"I could say the same, but I know I would be lying." As Roth said with a nervous slight grin. Mina is lying on the ground petrified on seeing the masked woman. Frida tilts her head to the side and sees Mina and she sarcastically gasps, "Oh! there you are! Look at you! You fattened up a little bit. Is this man overfeeding you? I thought we were doing a good job keeping you fit and healthy."
"All you gave me was bread and broth and nothing else!" As she yells furiously to Frida.
"My, my, you have a sharper tongue then I remember." Covering her mouth as if she was in shock.
Roth slowly walks back and stands in front protecting Mina. Mina grabs hold of Roth and is trembling with fear. "Please brother, don't make me go back there with her. She's so cruel and a monster."
He looks down putting on a cocky grin, "You really think I'm just going to give up this easy? I promise to make you strong, and I won't let this person stand in the way of that."
Mina smiles in his reassurance. "Look I hate to break up this little heartwarming talk, but she has to go back to us sooooo..." as she swirls her sleeve in a circular motion. Roth looks back at her with a stern look. He stands his ground and slowly pulls his sword the one Derian let him use as a temporary one. Roth uses appraisal on the insatiable woman. But his breath was taken away from the results and made his eyes widen and blood ran cold again. As he was looking upon her, he sees a velvet color aura surrounding her immensely. The level of this enemy was frightening as she stood pridefully with a level one hundred and fifty. His level was now thirty-five with all that time training Mina and working tirelessly in the quarry.
This amount of level is unthinkable. Roth nearly died from a level twenty-five ogre and now is face with a one hundred and fifty level being. His grip is shaking but gets control and is staying focused.
"Ooooooh! You saw something that made you tremble a bit didn't you! Wait don't tell me! You have the eye of God am I right?"
Roth is now panicking inside. He now questioned himself how she knew he was using appraisal on her. Though the eye of God was a new term he hadn't heard before. Especially in the amount of books he read in the guild's massive library. "The eye...of God? I'm sorry but I'm not familiar with that name."
"Oooooh you don't know? Well, it's an extremely rare ability as in SUPER RARE!" As she waves her arms straight up and slowly moves them down in arch motion.
"Oh goodie, goodie, goodie. I was originally going to take the little one back, but you...you caught my attention even more!" Tip toeing fast in place as she giggles.
Roth is sweating and refuses to take his eyes off of her. Now her insane over hyper movements turn to a dark sinister calm movement. And her voice became smooth and chilling. Her whole personality became a one eighty. "There's ever only one being that I know with that amount of power and skill. If you possess the eye of God, what other things are you keeping I wonder."
She slowly puts both hands under her pink sweater and pulls out two long jagged daggers. Frida positions herself as she is ready to sprint towards him. "Don't disappoint me love. Try your best, okay?" As she giggles to herself. Within seconds she launches herself at incredible speeds. Roth could barely blink to see how fast she was. Instinctively he blocks her attack from both the daggers and scared Roth to his core. The impact from the dagger from this petite woman was incredibly strong, his arms are stinging from the shock and vibration. With each step back she swings ferociously at him landing each hit harder and harder.
The swings of the blades are becoming increasingly faster. Mina is tensed and is watching frozen in fear. Frida notices her and swiftly sprints towards her. Roth looks back in terror with that same gut wrenched feeling back in that cave. He yells in anger to the top of his lungs. Frida readies her blade to strike into Mina's chest. As soon as she lifts her blade to strike a sudden ball of white light appears in front of Frida and shines tremendously. She was blinded by the burning rays and covered her face as yelped and looked away for a moment.
As she looked away still sprinting towards Mina, she was stopped suddenly. Roth has grabbed her from the wrist of her free hand. With an intense war cry he spun and sent her flying into the air. All Frida did was giggle and how fascinated she was. Her giggling in the air was interrupted as she looked down at Roth. His sword was impaled in the ground for a moment and was holding his wrist as he aims with his right hand, palm facing her. Her giggly attitude is now even more intrigued.
Roth unleashes a barrage of thick sharp icicles. His rapid fire was impressive as he was keeping her at bay. Miraculously she slices away all the icicles one by one. Her speed was synced to the incoming barrage of ice as she was cutting them down with her long-jagged daggers. She lands perfectly still slicing away the ice as she slowly walks towards him. "My tuuuuuurn!" as she laughs thinking this is all some twisted game. In her middle of slicing both her sleeves begin to slowly build up with some type of purplish orb mist.
Then she begins to move her slashing faster to the point Roth can see after images. Dark purple ooze shoots towards him at high speeds. Roth has no time to dodge and immediately puts up a barrier wall of pure light. The ooze splats hard and covers nearly the entire barrier. The pungent sulphury smell is strong it burns his nostrils. To his disarray the ooze slowly begins to melt the light barrier. He was startled and broke his concentration on holding the barrier. The moment he broke his focus Frida flies through the broken barrier with both her feet ready to impale through his chest.
Frida kicks Roth with both her feet towards his chest at incredible speed. Roth's wind was knocked out of him in an instant as he was sent flying back. Roth was halted by a tree and felt as if is whole back was split open. He remembers this type of situation and is progressively getting angry. "Awwww c'mon don't fall asleep on me. Don't you know it's rude to sleep right in front of a charming woman." Roth slowly turns his head to see Frida immediately standing over him. He was terrified how she managed to loom over him when she was several feet away from where she kicked him. That fear turned into anger and grit his teeth at her.
His breath finally caught up to him. "Wow you really are something huh? You can use light magic and ice magic." Frida kicks his side to flip him onto his back. She then sits on top of Roth and leans near his face. Roth feels disgusted and mortified of her straddling him. "Tell me, what drives you boy? What made you have the sudden urge to go and steal one of our properties? Why would someone of your talents go for such a trivial thing like our products?" She places her daggers tip on to his cheek and it burns him. The tip of the blade is covered in the rotten smell of ooze. Frida slowly drags down on his cheek leaving an easy open wound. The intensity of the burn from that ooze cuts his cheek open as if it was butter.
Roth doesn't answer. All Roth did was stare angrily at Frida with intense hatred for her. "My, my. That's a look I ever so adore, please, more. Show me more of that despaired face." Her voice sounds as if she's becoming aroused by his pain. He startles her by grabbing on to her wrist. "Awww Shnookums, you already did this before." saying with a disappointed tone. She then drives one of her daggers deep into his left shoulder hitting and breaking near the collarbone. Roth screams in agony as Frida giggles in pleasure. But Roth still wouldn't let go. The dagger is deep in his shoulder and can feel the pain every time he breathes.
"I can't stand your freaking psychotic mind." Forcing the words out his mouth. His whole body glows slightly green and doesn't dissipate. He looks far to his left side and sees Mina crying and using healing magic on him. He smiles at her, and Frida seems confused. "You get off by doing this to people huh. You really want to know why I set the demi humans free? You want to know why I saved that poor girl from being a person's tool property?" Roth holds on to Fridas wrist even more tight. She notices this and feels disgusted. She tries to pull away but is stuck in his grasp. "Because that's what adventurers do. They help the weak and stand up to monsters like you. They're free and help whoever they see in need of saving!" The area slowly turns a low red color and now is bright red. Frida looks down and sees his hand near her chest glowing bright red almost turning into flames. She tries to make him let go but fails. With one last war cry Roth yells. " I hope you got your fun bitch! I hope this doesn't disappoint you!" suddenly a big explosion burst between Roth and Frida. Frida is sent back at sonic speed and hits a tree splitting it half. Roth skids across the ground and his arm twisted the other way.
"BROTHER!" Mina rushes to Roths side and tries to heal him. Her healing recovery has gotten far better than before healing him instantly, but it wasn't enough. He is still bleeding out his mouth and wound from the dagger. His mangled arm is still not being healed. Mina is panicking and is forcing every mana in her body to heal him. Her tears fall onto his chest as she whispers to herself begging him not to die. Rustling was heard near the split tree where Frida was sent flying. Mina turns around in horror and sees Frida slowly walking towards him.
Mina grabbed her dagger and pointed at her shaking. Fridas mask was slightly charred and chipped. She was holding onto her chest as there was big tear in her sweater from the blast. Blood was slowly dripping from her face under the mask as it made its way down on her neck. The sounds of her breathing heavy was all Mina can hear from Frida. "You...You are one stubborn brat you know that kid. You ruined my fun. I don't feel like playing with you anymore today." Frida reaches out with her free hand and suddenly the blade that was stuck in Roth's shoulder shoots outward and into Frida's hand. "I hope you get some rest, you both are gonna need it... toodaloos." She then jumps back high into the air jumping from treetop to treetop.
Mina drops her blade quickly and resumes to heal Roth. Roth is now unconscious and is still bleeding profusely. Mina begs and begs over again pleading for Roth to wake up. What originally was meant to be a pleasant day of training and good meal afterwards, was ended with a horrific battle that shook Mina and Roths test of courage.
