" I hope you have a Plan otherwise, If things get too dangerous I won't risk my lives for them "
Claire who was quiet the whole time said looking at Chris in the eye, as she walked slowly toward him, as she looked at the figure of the others disappearing further down the street then at Phillip who was trying to not let his wife close her eyes talking to her, fearful of the worst if she did.
She had little hope that Eillen could survive, with the claws of this crow is being almost as big as human arms making her body look like being pierced by a huge fork, avoiding to look at the scene of the dying woman not wanting to feel less useless she had done all that she could already.
" don't worry about that, we are already doing all we can to help her, to tell the truth, I'm not sure Sarah could heal her maybe if we have some surgeon among us maybe we could, but there should be a limit to her healing power Phillip you should prepare for the worst "
I looked at Claire she was trying to be quiet but with how close we were to each other, I was sure Phillip heard her, his body became stiff, and hearing my reply his shoulders sank as his hands shake even stronger as took the courage to grab his wife's hands he mumbled something under his breath.
" What's wrong with you two don't you know how to be human, especially You chris "
Lisa hearing the two of them talking as if the poor Eillen was already dead made her want to slap them, even though she didn't care what happen to her, those two went too far.
We both looked at Lisa, I scratched my head not sure if I was too arch but at least I was honest with him here.
" Ok let's stop with that and let's discuss a plan to stay alive until the others came back with Sarah "
I said trying to break the awkwardness which installed after Lisa's Sermon.
We couldn't or weren't sure if moving Eillen would worsen her situation but we couldn't either let her like that in the middle of the street, any beasts could attack her by surprise.
..........
....
As the group of five people wh stay in the middle of the street a few meters from the crossroad as more people soldiers and survivors passed them looking at them like crazy people to talk among them like if they couldn't hear the screaming of the battle coming closer toward them.
" Why not try to go help the soldiers fighting at the front before they came here at least like that it would buy us more time "
after several propositions, it was the best plan they got Claire said as she wanted almost to slap those two crazy people thinking they are immortal because they have a stronger body than the others and now as they looked up the street they could see a group of soldiers retreating toward about ten meters from them.
" Ok let's go with it I will go try to talk to the person commanding those Soldiers and In exchange for Our Help they would send some Soldiers to protect Phillip and Eillen "
I said thinking Claire wasn't wrong the few days of fighting like a madman changed too much my of fighting.
Lisa next to us just nodded she just wanted to fight to stop those crazy thoughts of bloodshed in her mind, she could feel that the bond she created with her animals thank to her bloodline which was steady became weaker after his level up as she shared energy with her snake's making her having some of his natural ability but it seemed in exchange she had to find a way to canalize this surplus of energy to be completely under the control her sight changed from time to time to that of snake and her eyes had yet to adapt to it.
I looked at Lisa as I sensed that the violent energy around her becoming slightly out of control, she seemed fine so I smiled at her grabbing her hand to reassure her that I was here for her.
" Stop with it already and go "
Claire stopped the two of them seeing them looking at each other intently rolling her eyes.
the sound of battle was now clearly audible, and gunshot from time to time could be heard as growls of beasts came and left as quick as they came.
We told Phillip our plan as we made our way toward the sound of battle just across the turn of the street behind buildings.

I looked at Lisa and Claire one last time before running my mind now fully on fighting we weren't sure to always be close to each other since we would have to go strengthen different parts around the Soldier group to cover a higher superficies.
Before that, I had to find the leader of these Soldiers.
Awooooo!
haaaaaaaa!!
" Fuck what are you doing Shoot him shooooot! "
A soldier who got pounced on by what looked to be a wolf screamed, looking behind at his comrade who had a gun pointed at the wolf.
But the guy was frozen, seeing the wolf dig his claw in his friend, as it howled before looking with a bloody mouth he couldn't move, tear falling as his hands shook.
SWIshhhhhhh!
but suddenly he felt a figure pass him, running so fast that he barely saw it.
but the figure became clearer as it came close to the wolf who stopped to howl looking in his direction warily.
The figure of a man wearing bloodstained weather armor with a short sword on his right hand and a jean or whatever he was underneath appeared only to become slightly blurry as the figure suddenly appeared near the wolf paw who was under his brother in arm body.
slashing at it as his body turned in the air to the right of the wolf who was trying to bite at him but already too late as the man was slashing in right paw now.
the wolf retreated a few steps back letting whimper as it showed its teeth toward the man who stopped moving after wounding the wolf two legs, it wasn't really deep to make the dog unable to move but it was enough to give the man advantage as he ran once again toward the wold.
this time the soldier was able to see that the man was running but the man was taking strong steps that it was like he was disappearing.
and just like that the man ran around the wolf for ten or seconds before he slid underneath his body, the wolf although about one or two heads taller than the man was only able to scratch the man's back as it turned around it.
Awoooo!
the wolf let out a last howl as it felt his belly being cut by something sharp knowing it was this damned human who was even running around him could only howl in regret, but it didn't abandon turning his body as his organ fell on the ground and jumped at the man who looked at him, the wolf felt frightened as it sensed the same aura of dignity coming from this human that his leader.
But it didn't give up opening its mouth and biting at the human legs as he tried to retreat, looking at the sword who was falling at the same toward its head the wolf eyes became even more resolute.
Chris could only curse himself he thought because this wolf had the same aura as the level 7 evolved beasts he met, the wolf would be as dumb as the other and he was true since after running around for some time the wolf only tried to bite or claws at him.
but now he could only regret as his Left leg got bitten between the wolf teeth, his sword smashing in the wolf head at the same time but even if the wolf head caved in the grip on his left leg became stronger.
he felt energy entering his body proving the wolf was dead.
but as I was about to open the mouth of the wolf I heard another howl several howls coming toward me, followed by gunshots.
" Fuck I'm screwed this time "
Looking around me neither Lisa nor Claire was close to me, using the flat side of my sword to open quickly the mouth of the wolf, I felt someone or something running toward me from behind, and instinctively I was about to slash at it as I heard a human voice.
" hey stop I'm here to help You saved my friend just a minute ago "
A man covered in blood came I looked at him but didn't stop him as he helped me open the wolf's mouth.
" UHmmmm Offfffrghhh"
I gritted my teeth as I felt my flesh being torn apart as the fangs of the wolf came out of my leg.
" Hurry up help me stand up or we're screwed up we need to leave now "
I was sure I could move my legs in no long by having the muscle of my leg cut It was already a miracle I could endure so much I that was worth than having your muscle stretched out during a workout the pain was tenfold stronger.
vein forming on my arms as I tightened my fist.
" Why the fuck is there wolf here call the captain from the front we won't last long if this keeps going on, our reserve of ammunition won't last long those damn beasts are too fast "
I heard a man shouting to call the captain, I wasn't sure if this was the man I was looking for but it was ironic that I had to have my leg chewed off by a giant wolf to be able to see him, and this is not even one minute after entering the battle.
shaking my head, I moved as the soldier helped me to distance from the wolf corpse going toward some soldiers who had guns who were shooting at a group of four Wolf with one being slightly bigger as I could see his muscled shoulder and legs as it retreated after failing to come toward me.
Our eyes met as I felt a pressure bump me I quickly reacted releasing my own that I was controlling instinctively as if I couldn't tolerate being pressured by another being.
" ahh, what is it I can't move!! "
The soldier who was helping me said under a heavy breath.
" ahhh fuck what should I do, Sky isn't here this plan of splitting was a Bad Idea "
I could only swear as the group of Wolf were coming closer two soldiers who were recharging got smashed by two wolves who took the chance.
" If the captain doesn't come quickly this plan of the higher would be a failure where is the fucking man we send out, with his skill she should go unnoticed by most of the beasts here "
The expression that this group of seventeen, not fifteen soldiers were facing was like being toyed by those four beasts the bullet barely seriously injured them, and if they were smaller they wouldn't even have the time to call for help.
In a way, the size of the Wolf helped them but not in a good way since with only one swipe of their huge paws they could kill a man.
I looked around and I tried to make it so that my pressure doesn't affect the soldier helping me, but I felt as if my mind was being pressured as it was the first time I was doing it while being pressured by a beast who was able to use it's Aura so efficiently.
