Chapter 21 - Tiger

" long time partner!" said Zara

I've been waiting for him for an hour I think and he shows up with a smirking face making me think he made me wait on purpose. " I see that you haven't stopped being an idiot, I have specifically told you that you must bring a storage bag but no you decide to not bring even the normal backpack" he said that while smiling but I saw how his eyes expressed his irritation. " I have that sorted out so don't worry about it tell me more about the beasts that we have to kill, the reward and how we split it up" , " look at who's all grown up and how you carry your goods I'm not gonna help you cause I did try to advice you. Anyway this one will be a bit challenging...for you. " I rolled my eyes at him, he really shouldn't underestimate me and if he is not careful I might catch up to him then end up surpassing him.

He explained" Like I said , 20 level 3 bees and 10 level 3 flies. The reward for the bees is 20 000 silver coins which I'm sure you know are equal to 2000 gold coins. The flies are 10 000 silver coins , so we will each get 15 000 silver coins. The Bees shoot poisonous spikes from their butt , the flies spit poison from their mouths" , okay it actually sounds exciting cause I've never seen any of these beasts. Im especially excited to see the bees shoot spikes from their butts. Just like the last time he had a crystal that was going to lead us to the bees and so we began walking.

"Roarrr!"

While walking minding our own business we heard a roar coming from above, looking up the trees we saw a tiger on one of them. It has been eating a Fistboon's flesh , I got worried when I realised that it was eating a level 3 Fistboon. "It's a level 5 tigerem !" Exclaimed Zara his voice laced with fear, did our luck drop or something cause things usually go well for us. It jumped off the tree and I got to see it properly, the eyes were very scary because they were in flames , like they were actually fflames. The teeth were so sharp that they made my imagination go wild, It wasn't too big just the normal tiger size but I can tell that we'll have a problem killing it. It roared again but this time the roar made the Furr vanish and be replaced with flames, it's entire body was covered in flames. Before it even began its attack I shot an aqua shield towards Zara and created an aqua shield for myself. With an amazing speed it flashed infront of my aqua shield and swiped it's flame red razor sharp claw sending me flying and land painfully on the ground.

My aqua shield has been destroyed by its claw , I quickly created another one amazed that it's attack didn't bounce back but had destroyed my shield. It did the same thing to Zara and before it was able to come for me I sent 10 water blasts and 10 ice slashes at the same time towards it and got my lightning ready just incase it comes rushing at me again. Just as I expected my attacks landed but didn't do anything, again with an amazing speed it flashed infront of me but I was ready with preparing the lightning bolt. I fired the lightning bolt but before it landed it flashed to another spot making me admire it's speed. " Claudia keep it busy , make it focus on you" said Zara , " you better have a plan " I fired more water blasts and ice slashes and when it came out of my attacks unscathed I fire a lightning bolt cause it's the only attack that it dodges.

I saw Zara firing his Dark desire circle at random places which made me feel confused,I wondered how will that help? No time for that, the tiger this time didn't charge towards me , it roared shooting a flame tiger head that was burning my skin even before it got to me. I was about to add layers on my aqua shield but a dark magic circle appeared in time and the tiger head disappeared in it. Thanks Zara " lightning, use everything in you to keep it busy with lightning" shouted Zara while gritting his teeth and I nodded. I fired lightning bolts towards the tiger and it was very determined in dodging them, my lightning bolts was fast but none was able to hit it. Atleast I was keeping it busy. The tiger suddenly stopped moving and I noticed that the ground it was standing on had a dark magic circle, it roared but with pain this time as one of its legs twisted in a very painful way. It stared at Zara and still maged to flash towards him but his speed was reduced a little because of its broken leg.

I fired a lightning bolt towards it forcing it to flash in another spot but then it froze again, I noticed that it must have landed on another one of Zara's dark circles. Another pained roar was heard and this time it was it's eyes that fell on the ground causing me to take in a sharp breath ' this boy is very dangerous. It's body that was in flames turned back to normal, Zara shouted another spell while having uneven breathing. Another dark magic circle appeared and it fired a dark Flame tiger head towards the tiger killing it with its own powerful attack. Zara fell on his butt exhausted. I can't believe he can use his magic to this extent, what kind of training did he endure to be this powerful.

We drank healing potions and he said he was going to take the entire body especially the flame eyes and I'll take the mana stone. It only fair that he decides cause he is the one that killed the tiger. To be honest that was some awesome battle that'll definitely be imprinted on my brain.
