CHAPTER 193 I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU.

"W-What the hell…"

Clara's mouth was opened wide in shock.

Lane, who was standing beside her frowned.

"Why are you so shocked?"

"You aren't?" Clara questioned.

"Well, she was a little decisive with her moves, I agree, but aren't you overreacting? It was just a 1-Star Beast."

"It's not about what rank the beast was, it's about…"

"Hmm? About what?"

"Didn't you see how quick and decisive she was? Isn't this her first time killing a living thing? Why does she look like an experienced killer?

Also, don't you find the contrast between her cute face and decisive killing a little too shocking?"

Clara questioned.

Lane, however, shook her head and answered,

"We are cultivators as well, you know? We were taught cultivation so that we can protect Lady Felberta, how are we supposed to protect Lady Felberta if we aren't prepared to kill?

Although we were forced to kill, mentally, we were prepared to do it.

Killing a beast is nothing, we can even kill a human if he wanted to harm Lady Felberta or… Nux…

Our daggers won't tremble like you are imagining in your mind."

A determined look combined with a small blush appeared on Lane's face as she muttered.

Clara was taken aback by Lane's answer, however, soon, a small smile appeared on her face and she nodded in understanding.

Lane and Skyla were the same as her, only luckier.

While she was forced to kill humans ever since she was 7, Lane and Skyla were taken in as bodyguards and were trained to protect someone else.

It is only natural that they are prepared to kill.

Of course, Clara knew it won't be as easy as Lane think.

When it comes to killing humans, the pressure is…

A lot higher than normal.

Although her dagger may not tremble before killing the human, however, it will tremble once you killed him.

A wry smile appeared on Clara's face as she remembered the first time she killed a human.

However, soon, she shook her head and decided to change the topic.

"What about Lady Felberta, how do you think she is doing?"

"Hmm, I don't know, however, I am sure she won't be having a hard time as well…"

…

And Lane was right.

Right now, Felberta was standing in front of a dead 1-Star Earth Bear, there was blood on her feet and she was looking at the Bear with an expressionless face.

Suddenly, she felt a hand on her shoulder, she turned around and saw Edda standing behind her,

"Are you okay?" Edda questioned.

"Yes, I am fine. Something like this won't bother me." Felberta nodded and smiled.

She won't deny it, she was a little shaken, however, it wasn't much.

She knew she would get used to it if she kills a few more beasts. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

'I need to get stronger,'

She thought inwardly.

'There are too many amazing women around him now. I need to improve myself.' ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ ꪶ

This was her motivation.

If Nux knew her thoughts, he would only chuckle and kiss her lips, however, Felberta was serious.

She wanted to get stronger.

"Alright, let's kill a few more beasts," Felberta muttered.

Edda who was behind her nodded.

She had already killed humans before, this was nothing for her. She decided to accompany Felberta until she is comfortable, after that, she will start killing beasts as well.

As for the assassins following them, well, the two of them kept the eye on the surrounding, although it was just an Outer Layer where the strongest Star Beast is just a 3 Star Beast, which Two can easily take down alone, they were still cautious.

That was how Thyra trained these assassins to be.

Perfectionists.

…

The other assassins were obviously faster than Nux's woman; they formed a team of 2 and hunted 3 Star Beasts.

They were quick and efficient and brought Nux lots of points.

As for their leader, well, she left the Outer Area as well and entered Inner Area, she wanted to fight 4 Star Beasts.

3 Star Beasts were too weak for her.

Also, she wanted to become an Expert Stage Cultivator and the best way to do that was fighting.

Ahem, correction, it was the second-best way to do that.

The first was,

Ahem Ahem.

Thyra then started killing 4 Star Beasts. Whether the fight would be long or short depended on whether she was the first one to attack or not. If it was the Beast who attacked her first, things would take more time.

However, if it was her who had the first strike,

Heh.

Of course, it depended on the Beast's strength as well, a 4-star beast is equal to a Grand Master Stage Cultivator. Generally, Beasts are stronger than humans of the same Stage.

A party of 1 Grand Master and around 2 Master Stage Cultivators was required to defeat a 4-Star Beast.

Of course, this is only applicable for adventurers and fighters who are not trained properly.

This does not mean that adventurers aren't experienced, in fact, in this wilderness, they are the ones with the most experienced.

However, they cannot be compared with the likes of Thyra.

Thyra was a remarkably agile assassin, and she knows how to use her speed properly.

If she is the one who gets the first attack, even an Expert Stage cultivator might fall, let alone 4-Star brainless beasts.

Killing these beasts was an easy thing for her, and of course, the number of System points she collected for Nux was the highest.

Thyra continued killing and moving from one place to other, then suddenly, while she was walking, someone tapped on her shoulder.

Her body jerked in surprise, she then turned around and saw it was Nux.

"Hello~ My cute assassin, I see you have been killing a lot of poor beasts."

"W-What is it?" Thyra questioned with a red face.

She was a little embarrassed by how surprised she acted.

"Ohhhh? You aren't happy to see me here?" Nux questioned with a smile.

"I am but… w-why are you here?" Thyra questioned.

Then, a smile appeared on Nux's face as he answered,

"I have been waiting for you."
