The ground is shaking.
The first person to notice this was Lilith.
"Don't tell me…..this is."
"Gregor! WHAT'S HAPPENING ! ?" Asked a panicked adventurer.
''It's a horde of monsters coming.'' Another one responded, he had faced a similar situation in the past; however, not this soon. No wonder the guild master said it unusual monster wave.
''Prepare for battle.'' the strongest adventurers present ordered, everyone readied their weapons. Preparations were ready.
Soon, monsters came into view; it was a mix of everything, goblin, hobgoblin, kobold, wind wolves, water monkey, orcs, and so on.
''Mage attack first, ready? Fire.'' The acting leader ordered, and the mages moved at once, firing their magic. Fire Mages fire first followed by Wind mage to increase the fire magic.
Boom! Boom!
Like firecrackers, magic rained down on the ground creating several explosions; things hadn't died down yet; the next attack followed, water mages fired, extinguished the previous flame, giving the monster a short moment of peace before hell was let loose by the fourth and last attack. Lightning rained down on the saturated monsters, Water+ Lightning; the result couldn't be more obvious.
Many monsters died electrocuted; the unluckiest had their heart burst as the lightning happened to land on their chest, their drenched chest where their heart was.
''That is a nice tactic, no wonder the guild master picked him to be the leader,'' Lilith commented when she saw the damage the mages had done; Sakuya didn't say anything; she was more eager to slay some monsters, this could be seen as how tightly she was holding her katana. Lilith quietly shook her head.
Suddenly, the acting leader raised his hand and let down.
''Oooooh!"
Some emitted battle cry as their charged at the frozen monsters; those behind started trampling on the slowest, the injured as if they were possessed; their earlier fear seemed to have vanished in thin air.
Swoosh!
Sakuya moved even faster; she passed a hobgoblin mage, the latter was trying to cast magic by raising his wand; unfortunately, the hands along with the wand got cut off, the monster had no time to cry before something pierced its brain from behind, it was an invisible wind arrow.
[Ïai Giri]!!!
Sakuya unleashed attack after attack, those who were slow saw themselves being bisected, the luckiest lost an arm at most, however, soon the grim reaper passed by, and the result, their lost their lives. Sakuya was dancing amidst monsters with a smile; she encountered almost no resistance; the other adventurers had gotten numb to this scene; they knew they'd from a heart attack if they kept getting surprised by everything this presumed Rank 7 could do.
However, soon they learned she wasn't the only abnormally. Finally, Lilith moved, she unsheathed her sword, lightning flashed, and thirty monsters were obliterated.
People froze, even the acting leader was momentarily surprised before smiling, for the remaining people they didn't get over their shock soon if she had killed thirty monsters in three attacks, they could still accept it, however, decimating thirty monsters with one attack, is absurd, they wondered if their leader said to be close to Rank 9 could do this. The answer is no, but he can kill ten monsters in one attack.
''Keep attacking.'' The acting leader roared, bringing them to their senses, they continued to push forward.
Soon, the horde of monsters was cleared; however, it was not the end of their trouble. Another horde of monsters soon followed; however, these monsters were different from the previous one; they were stronger, with the weakest being level 50, leading to two vampires flying using their bats like wings.
''Demon!"
Some of the adventurers became fearful; they hadn't heard anything about demons. Seeing humans fear them brought untold joy to the demon; the one at the back held a flute, this seemed to be the thing used to control the monster, the acting leader decided that there must retrieve this flute at any cost, and because he was the strongest here disregarding those two unusual girls, he must move it was time to move, so he moved closer to the mage and whispered something into their ears before unsheathing his sword.
''Weak humans, we have come to slaughter you lot. Obediently offer your life for us.'' The vampire at the front announced grandiosely. He cast charm magic on the adventurers; the weak-willed one had their will robed, they froze unable to do anything, even few among the mages fell under the vampire charm.
Sakuya snorted, ''Annoying fly.''
''What did you say, you damn human?" Asked the vampire at the front, what demon dislike the most, especially vampire is to be called fly.
''I said the annoying fly. Are you deaf on top of being a buzzing fly?" Sakuya asked without a care in the world, this annoyed the first vampire, even more, he wished more than nothing but to rip this human girl apart; however, he knew he must act rashly, they were waiting for a signal, and more importantly he wasn't the leader, glancing behind him he stared at the second vampire, the one that didn't talk, the latter nodded his head, the first vampire smiled.
''Attack.'' He ordered; the monsters charged toward the humans, the acting leader moved at that time, so is the mages (those still lucid); they attacked.
The first vampire eyes turned redder; his fangs grew, even more, his speed doubled; he appeared behind Sakuya; even though she had sensed his arrival, she couldn't move as she hoped.
''Take this.'' Shouted the vampire before unleashing devastating attacks.
Soon, injuries riddled her body; even so, she was smiling because she could feel that she was getting closer to the second element; the initial windshield surrounding her was slowly getting mixed with dark elements, strengthening it.
The vampire noticed something abnormal, so he decided to finish this human girl before anything unexpected happened.
Concentrating energy around his claw, the vampire accelerated even more and struck Sakuya in the chest; her shield was broken. She immediately crossed her arms in a defensive posture.
SCREECH~
"Cough!"
Sakuya coughed up a mouthful of blood. Her chest and hands ripped open, and hot blood splashed out.
She ignored the pain as the impact sent her flying. She put her feet on the ground forcefully and stopped herself from dragging back any further; at the same time that the vampire struck her, the power traveled to her body, wanting to destroy her hurt; however, a small black appeared and sucked the energy, at the same time something broke within her, and she knew what this meant.
''Hahahahaha!" Sakuya suddenly burst into laughter, drawing everyone's attention; the vampire walking toward her stopped and questioned.
''What is so funny? Have you gone nuts?"
''Hahaha, Cough! I'm laughing because you're already dead.'' Sakuya responded, her eyes turned sharper; the second vampire immediately got a bad feeling; he wanted to move; however, Lilith's eyes were locked on him like a hawk locking its prey.
The first vampire, not seeing the situation, sneered, ''Pathetic.'' He then launched himself on Sakuya, intending to bisect her.
Sakuya also moved, no her katana moved.
[Yami Maho Jigen Giri] (Dark Magic Dimensional Slash)
The world turned white, and black passed through it; when everything resumed, the vampire alongside every monster behind him was cut into two.
Silence descended on the battlefield until an acting leader moved to catch the falling Sakuya; she seemed to have lost consciousness.
''What a strange move, even I can't do anything about it.'' The acting leader said as he moved Sakuya to safety.
