That very afternoon...
Alisha was about to head to the kitchen to cook Rainer's lunch.
"Young Master kept his promise not to return wounded, I think I'll make him some stew, his favourite dish!"
"I'm gonna need...Mmm!"
A hand with a cloth covered her mouth and nose, after which she began to fall unconscious.
"What are you waiting for, get her into the carriage quickly!"
A young man's voice echoed in Alisha's ears.
"Yo-Young Ma...."
Darkness blanketed Alisha's consciousness as she tried to resist.
...
"F*cking Rainer, he thinks he's a big deal because he managed to summon his spiritual beast, I did it too! Why do they leave Rainer in peace and threaten me when our beasts are both 1st Rank?"
In the carriage surrounded by guards, Paisen was cursing Rainer's existence.
"I'm going to give him what he deserves hahaha!I will leave him almost dead and then give Alisha to Yren. After that, Yren will see me as someone useful and the others will stop molesting me with his support!"
As he opened the curtain of the carriage, Paisen spoke to the guard at his side.
"Did you deliver the letter?"
"Yes, Young Master, we have confirmed that the message has been delivered!" Said the guard in response.
"Perfect, everything goes according as planned..."
"I am not surprised that Yren wants this b*tch, she doesn't look like a slave as the other maids... If it wasn't because Yren wants her, I would have already thrown myself at her a long time ago kekekeke!"
Paisen's lascivious laughter resounded in the quiet forest, not knowing that he had touched the dragon's inverted scale!
...
The carriage stopped at a clearing, the trees were long ago cut down and the moonlight was the only source of light at night. The noise of the nocturnal beasts going out to hunt could be heard all over the woods.
"We've been waiting for at least thirty minutes...Doesn't Rainer care about what happens to his slave?"
Paisen was already pissed enough to have to wait longer.
"Give me the whip, I'm going to beat this wh*re!"
"Young master...are you really going to do it?"
"I was told that we would beat up Rainer so that Yren would take us under his wing, but we have kidnapped a girl and now you are going to torture her?"The guard hired for this mission began to think that Paisen was out of his mind and wanted to leave.
"We've come this far, don't you be scared now!You scum, that's why you'll never become anything more than a simple guard!"
Angered because his subordinate criticized his actions, Paisen took the whip and whipped him continuously.After a while the guard was completely covered with scars and bruises that would never heal.
"Hu..hu... now it's that b*tch's turn!"
Paisen gasped for exhaustion as he approached the helpless Alisha.
"Take this...
As he was about to whip Alisha, a terrifying scream resounded in the forest.
"Aaaaahhhhh!"
The scream sounded as if someone had met his worst nightmare in real life and death was all that awaited him.
"It's the explorer, Young Master!"
Said Paisen's servant.
"It seems that we have entered the territory of a magical beast, prepare the battle array!"
The servant was not as stupid as his master and knew how to react to an unexpected event.
"..."
A few moments later, the guards had surrounded Paisen and the servant while reinforcing their line-up.
Among the guards, there were even a couple of cultivators at the initial manifestation stage!
Many cultivators without a support decided to join clans where, in exchange for their services, they would be rewarded with cultivation resources and similar benefits.
"Don't worry, Young Master, with all of us here, even a magic beast in the later stage would think twice before messing with our group."The leader of the guards was really confident in the strength of his numbers.
...
After killing the hidden scout, Rainer discovered who had kidnapped Alisha.
One of the other young Guardians who used to intimidate him along with Yren and Jathra,Paisen!
Apparently, after failing miserably in the summoning ritual, they all began to look at him as a weak target and proceeded to make his life impossible, unable to bear it any longer, Paisen decided to set up this plan to secure Yren's favor.
"All of this so Yren could see you as a pawn? Damn you Paisen!"
Anger filled Rainer's eyes, he could only imagine ripping Paisen apart and giving him an agonizing death.
"Lerna, kill everyone in sight..."
Rainer never thought he would have so little regard for other people's lives.
Is it because of Alisha? Because of his anger? Or deep down he always thought like that but never dared to act before...
Receiving his orders, Lerna in her basilisk shape swiftly slipped under the mantle of darkness.
...
"Something is coming, stay on guard!"
Shouted the leader of the bodyguards and one of the two cultivators at the initial manifestation stage.
Ssss!
A hissing could be heard in the silent clearing, no one dared to move a single muscle as if they were paralyzed.
"Aaaaahhhhh!"
Suddenly, a scream resounded behind them. When everyone turned in the direction of the scream, there were only a couple of blood puddles but no sign of the guard.
They could still hear the scream in the distance, whatever had taken the guard away seemed to enjoy the terror of the crowd.
"Damn it, I'm out of here! I was not paid enough to be devoured!"A guard who couldn't control his emotions succumbed to his fears and he fled in the direction of the clan.
" You idiot, come back here! It will devour you if you are on your own!"
Shouted his companions, but soon the figure of the guard disappeared into the darkness.
"..."
"He seems to have not been killed... I think we should leave quickly!"
"Yes, you're right. I don't intend to die for a brat and his temper tantrums."
Whispered the guards among themselves.
Soon, more guards fled in the same direction than the earlier guard.
"Where are you damn cowards going!"
Paisen was terrified and now even his guards were abandoning him.
...
"Young master, I think we should return to the clan before something happens..."
Said Paisen's servant.
"You're right."
Paisen felt a weight being lifted from him, the feeling of being a prey has not yet disappeared.
"Bring the female slave"
...
"...!"
After walking for ten minutes, they caught the smell of blood.
"There is something in the way..."
Said the bodyguard leader.
...
"Go Lerna!"
Suddenly a snake several meters long appeared from the bushes and rushed over one of the bodyguards.
Although he was on his guard, he was unable to react in time to the snake's charge.
*Crack*
After the collision, the cultivator in the initial manifestation stage spit out repeated mouthfuls of blood from the force of the impact.
*Glup*
"Uugh"
When he tried to stand up, the snake looked directly into his eyes. Those yellow eyes seemed to absorb his soul, preventing him from defending himself.
After staring at him, the snake opened its jaws and dipped him in its breath.
"Aaaaahhhhh"
Not being able to protect his body with his spiritual energy, his flesh began to open and pus began to come out of his wounds!
To be sprayed by that breath was like being slowly cooked while you were being cut with swords, a torture!
Ten seconds later, the glint in his eyes disappeared.
"What the hell is that!"
The remaining three people lost the color on their faces, they seemed to face the death directly.
Even now, Paisen had not yet summoned his horned beetle, even though it wouldn't help much.
"Give it the girl and we' ll flee while she is eaten!"
No one knew who had said those words, but it was like a rainfall during a drought.
The servant left Alisha on the ground and the three fled in the direction of the clan.
After their escape, Rainer descended from a nearby tree and approached the unconscious Alisha.
"I am so sorry Alisha, everything will be over by the time you wake up." Said Rainer as he stroked her cheek.
After carrying Alisha on his back, Rainer gave his next order to Lerna.
"Give them hunting. Don't kill Paisen until I get there..."
Ssss!
Lerna quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest.
