Chapter 16: The Town.

----

Blood gushed from William's wound as he struggled to raise his hand. Touching the hyenas pointy fur, with heavy breaths, "devour...."

"Devour...." his pupils dilated, as confusion overtook.

[It will not work.. 'devour' is a 'unique' spell but not omnipotent, it will not work on beings who are alive and stronger than you...]

The hyena snarled, it's teeth piercing deep in William's shoulder.

"Aaaah, fuck..." William gasped.

With william's shoulder between his teeth, The hyena dragged him to the canal, struggling in pain, William tightened his grip on the sword.

The hyena immersed William in the water. His head being hit by the flow of water, Struggling for a moment, William stopped all movements.

Raising his sword from under water, William slashed off the hyena's one forelimb.

Loosening William's shoulder the hyena groaned in pain, falling in the water.

Both drowned in the water flow, struggling to catch on to something.

The speed of water flow increased, "aaah.. shit..." William witnessed a waterfall ahead.

At the edge of high waterfall the hyena held on to the cliff with his remaining limbs, struggling to climb back.

William drowning in the water flow, smiling, his eyes shiny, raising his sword high, he kicked on the hyenas paw.

The hyena, Falling with his back facing ground, William charged at him mid air.

Piercing the hyenas belly and landing on it.

Falling twenty meters height, William was under water.

Natalie and Lily, dressed in their wet white attire, stood near the shore, Witnessing William's downfall.

Natalie's eyes widened, as she feared for the worst, with a worried expression she rushed back to where William fell.

Lily followed Natalie closely.

As they came close, William rushed out of water, gasping and taking deep breaths.

Fountain of blood burst from his wounded shoulder, his right hand tightly holding the 'Exterminator'.

Natalie jumped in to support him, taking his sword, she held him closely, helping him to Walk out of the water.

Lily staring at the peak of waterfall, 'did master survive falling from around Twenty meters high waterfall...?"

Taking a deep breath, Lily immersed herself in the water, searching for the body of Lead hyena.

[Congratulations! You have successfully slained a 2nd rank monster.]

William smiling with proud and mystery, walked up to a tree, Natalie concerned, supported William to sit.

After searching for a minute, Lily walked out of the water, puzzled her eyes confused,

'Master definitely fell with the hyena, did I miss it while it got swept with the flow of water..'

Natalie's eyes narrowed to her Master's wound, pressing the wound with her hands, and struggling to stop the blood, she screamed, "Lily, help..."

[Congratulations! You have successfully devoured your first 2nd rank monster..]

Groaning in pain, he murmured, "shut up..."

'Haaaaah... Natalie and her Kindness...' Lily smiled. Running she came in.

Closing his eyes, William relaxed.

After a moment, a warm feeling shadowed his pain, struggling to open his eyes, he witnessed Lily using a spell with golden aura.

His wound healed rapidly, as he gained energy in his feet.

Natalie smiled, while Lily walked back, mockingly he nodded,

"Once again, you both had the chance to let me die, and gain your freedom....

But whatever...

Thanks for saving me..."

His nonchalant way of handling his own life disturbed Natalie and Lily, bewildered, they stared at him.

Placing the 'Exterminator' and 'the path' by his side,

"Here, it is.." handing them the bag of apples, he stood up.

Natalie startled, took the bag.

[It's a surprise in itself that you survived.]

[But, Now you need to move to a civilised place.]

'The path' spoke in his mind.

Natalie offering an apple to Lily, took one for herself.

While Natalie enjoyed the sweet taste of apple, Lily blankly stared at it.

Picking his dry and clean T-shirt, he chuckled.

Wearing it, "I am leaving for the nearest civilization of humans. What about you guys. Where are you both going to go."

Sighing, "leave it, go wherever you want, just tell me the direction towards the nearest civilization."

Staring at his back, Lily explained, "The nearest civilization is about a 3/4th of a day away, it is a famous town among humans for slave trade.

Situated at the Eastern border of the "WELLERMEN Kingdom."

"Slave trade... huuuh....And the direction to it?" Curiously William asked.

"We can lead the way. Master..!" Natalie replied, her gazes fixed on the rest of the apples.

William picking Exterminator and The Path, "you can have all of it, I brought them for you."

"For me?" Natalie eyes shining like a star, she cheered.

"Yes. I mean for both of you." Bewildered he replied.

"And I don't need you to lead the way, Just tell me the directions and you both can go your own way."

Natalie eyes dropped, her smile faded "we have nowhere to go."

"Our home, our people and our land everything is gone." Tears of pain coated in anger fell from Lily's eyes.

Entraced for a moment, he walked off.

"Then what are you waiting for? Come on! Lead the way."

[If you were going to take them together, then why did you make them cry...]

'I wasn't going to.'

[Then, Were you going to leave them alone in this forest?]

'Didn't thought about that.'

[....]

Surprised! Natalie cleared her tears, smiling she picked the bag of apples and her robe.

Pulling Lily's hands, she ran to catch up with Williams fading back.
