Re: The Villainess Does It With Class

The two of them had lurked around, trying to sense if there were some creatures nearby. Ezekiel had been walking alongside Nathan who kept glancing back from the place where Nadia and Bea were left to look after the horses. They have not gotten that far, only a few meters ahead, and he already looked like he wants to go back.

'Honestly… This guy only has his sister in his mind…'

That was what Ezekiel was thinking as he shakes his head.

Noah had separated from them earlier from chasing a blood hare. He just let him do what he wanted because they are individually hunting anyway.

Both of them were now silently observing a Great Harpy's nest which was located above a tree. The two of them know that if they recklessly go in and snatch that nest, the harpy would seriously aim for their lives.

After all, Harpies are known as bloodthirsty birds and are dangerous. They are worth high points as well..

"Maybe we should have brought a bow with us," Ezekiel muttered as he studied the Harpy perched upon the tree's branches.

It hasn't been that long since they left the clearing, maybe less than 15 minutes? And was about to do something when they felt the ground tremble.

"Woah! An earthquake?" Ezekiel exclaims as he went to his feet.

Of course, because of the sudden shaking of the ground, the harpy got extremely cautious. There is no way that the two of them would get it now. Just then, when another rumbling occurred, a loud squealing sound reverberated around the forest.

Nathaniel and Ezekiel immediately perked up and looked at the direction of that thunderous sound. The former's body tensed and sharpened its senses.

"The clearing…" Ezekiel whispered with widening eyes.

The ground shook again and the two instantly bolted back to the place they came from.

This damn pig!

I have been trying to evade its mindless head-ramming since earlier. Given the fact that I already wasted too much energy from the deer-chase and that adrenaline-rushed sprint, I was surprised that I am still standing here without any hint of fatigue at all.

Or maybe I do feel tired but just feeling numb to acknowledge it. Oh well…

Isn't this boar getting dizzy from bumping its head on trees? How thick is his skull?!

And wow, those horns of it sure are strong, especially those canines. It seriously left a gaping hole on a tree trunk.

"Where are theeeey," I whined as I threw another rock on it.

I had also released the horses that were tied on the trees while doing this weird showdown with the wild boar, and now they are prancing around like crazy. One even had fled from the place to God knows where.

I had already wasted three arrows before. One was from that three-horned deer and the other two is from this stupid and unkillable pig.

'How did Ezekiel and Nathan kill this pig again? I cannot remember…'

From my musing, I got distracted for a bit and just then saw the wild boar charging again. So I sprinted to the side and hid on another tree which it then bumped into. The pig only shakes its head and huffed, smoke billowing out of its nostrils.

'Why is this here anyway? This is not supposed to happen!'

Sweat trickled down from my forehead down to the side of my face. Good thing that I had worn something comfortable and didn't restrict my movement or I would be doomed. Gritting my teeth, I dashed to the other side and picked up a rock along the way.

"Eat this, you dumb bitch!" and hurled the stone in its direction.

The stone whizzed in the air and hit it right in its snout, causing it to let out a squeal. And mind you, that sound it made seriously hurt my eardrums.

Good thing it hurt it though, I was trying to aim its mouth but eh, that works as well. Hurting my shoulder was a little worth it…

"Nadia!" Nathan yells out before suddenly storming out from the trees.

Beatriz and Ezekiel appeared from behind him, and now they are all gaping at this big thing.

The big thing, however, became even more vicious as more moments passed from all of the failed attempts of turning me into a barbecue. It let out an ear-splitting squeal and hunkered at the three's direction.

Nathaniel then pulled out his sword and jumped to the side, while Ezekiel pulled the petrified Bea out of harm's way.

'Oh gosh, that almost gave me a heart attack…'

When Ezekiel had secured Bea away from the big fat pig, he then stretched his right hand sideward. A blinding light flashed for a moment before golden specks of dusts covered his whole hand and formed a sword. The sharp edges of it glinted as the light hit it.

'Wow… That's magic?'

Ezekiel, as a descendant of the royal family, of course, has access to magic. They are the bloodline of the sun God Luminus, so it would be fair that their powers are also of light attributes.

"Are you okay?" Nathan asked as soon as he approached me. His eyes roamed around my whole body trying to look for injuries, but well, I have great mobility so I came out unscathed.

Fufufufufu~

"I am fine, brother. You all came at the right time," I assured him.

I was really getting tired of dealing with it alone so now, I will leave everything to them.

"Stay here and don't do anything rash," he said before joining Ezekiel.

Upon knowing that the two are finally here, I still could not let my guard down so I stayed alert. I rested at the side first, catching my breath and watched the two of them fighting the wild boar.

Ezekiel had taken the vanguard, after Nathan would attack it, he would then follow it with another strike from him. They occasionally exchange positions as well, and launched a barrage of slashing melee attacks. Sadly though, it seems nothing is going through its thick hide.

'Oh no, if this goes on. Both of them would exhaust themselves…'

I glanced at the two figures of guys swiftly pouncing on the boar and dodges when it retaliates.

'I need to do something.'
