Legend Of Bumi

Chapter 3

Agrya is an infamous predator in the land of Aklesia. They have advantages with their weight. Their claws can destroy the human body in an instant.

Currently, small groups of Agrya have just enjoyed their lunch party. As they were about to leave, one of the beasts seemed attracted by the human scent which hiding not far from where they were.

Lie and Nero was trying to keep calm so that the Agrya were not triggered to ambush.

Nero pulled out the gra.s.s once more and gave it to Lie. He whispered, "now use this, at least it will make them difficult enough to track you."

"Okay, then what should we do next?" Asked Lie who was scrubbing the gra.s.s into his body.

"You should have followed all my instruction before," the archer replied with a sigh. "If we both run away, then they will spontaneously chase us. If we fight them, the chance to win is small. I have a plan. When I throw my lighting pocket, run as hard as you can," he continued while preparing his arrows and bows.

"Hey! What do you want to do?"

"It"s not enough to rely on a lighting pocket alone because there are still dozens of Agrya who will attack after we immobilize one. And the stock is limited. That is why I must using my bow."

Lie noticed that the archer"s body was trembling. The young man in front of him wasn"t brave enough than he was. But the young man still decided to be a bait for the hungry beasts.

Helping a stranger who has just fought him is an unreasonable act. At least that"s what"s on Lie"s mind.

"Prepare yourself."

Lie immediately took a position to sprint. For the last time, he looked at Nero who will become his savior.

Nero"s back looks big. A hero who is ready to sacrifice himself for the sake of others. It"s impossible to win against the 5 Agrya alone.

He still remembers how frustrated Nero was when the beasts tore up the humans a while ago. Just like him. The difference is, this time, the archer is making the right decision with his conscience. Beyond his fear.

"I can not accept this," Lie said.

"What are you doing? There is no other way -"

"Nero, if I sacrifice you to survive, I"ll be sorry for the rest of my life. We have to run away together!"

"Ssssst, do not be noisy," Nero interrupted while slapping Lie"s face.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d. This is not hurt at all. If only I had the weapon before, I would have won against your flashbang... your magic pouch, I mean," Lie protested.

"Wait, can you use a weapon?"

"Of course."

Nero pulled a dagger from the pouch at his waist. Then he handed it over to Lie.

"Can you use this?"

"Of course I can, this is one of my specialty."

"All right, listen carefully to my plan."

***

One Agrya was approaching the hiding place of two humans. Their habitue when ambushing the prey is not different like a big cat.


Suddenly Nero appeared throwing a glowing pouch after he had cast a spell.

The Agra did not move because his eyes disturbed.

Instantly, Lie came out and stabbed the beast"s throat with a dagger.

Other Agrya look shocked after see one of his friends dying. But, that did not last long. Their leader roared--ordered his underlings to attack immediately.

This time Lie the who threw a glowing pouch toward the two approaching Agrya while Nero casting the spell.

After that, Nero tries shooting the arrows. It"s. .h.i.t the two Agrya. But still, the beasts are not going down quickly.

"d.a.m.n, their bodies are too strong to be pierced by my arrows."

"Attack his head!"

"I"ve been trying!" Nero replied in a panic.

Finally, one of Agrya collapse after the arrow hit his head through the eyes.

"The other one, let me kill him!" Lie bravely attack the paralyzed Agrya.

The beast becomes crazy. He attacked randomly with his claws. Lie tried to avoid it, but the tip of Agrya"s nails. .h.i.t his shoulders. Fortunately, he managed to slash the creature"s neck.

"Lie! Are you okay?" Nero screamed worriedly.

Holding his injured shoulders, he answers, "this is just a small wound, but I do not think I"ll be as agile as before."

Agrya is a reasonably intelligent creature. Coordination between their leader and his subordinates is the proof.

Now there were two Agrya left. The leader who stands in front of the two men, and his underling who walk around them until finally managed to intercept the escape road behind.

"Nero, we can throw two bags together, let me throw them at their leader."

"The number of my lighting pocket only one left, and they are more likely able to attack you in a blind state because they can smell your blood now."

The two of them turned their backs to each other facing the two Agrás who were ready to attack. Because showing the back without protection will trigger the beast to attack.

Do not show your back to the giant cat. This law also applies to the beasts like Agrya.

The beasts and humans were staring at each other, waiting for any movements. The current battle has no definite results. They are aware of it.

"You should just run away before," Nero brought up his rejected plan.

"No. I do not want to lose to you, run like a coward while you become my savior, I do not want to live with indebtedness that cannot be repaid!"

"I"m not planning on dying for you."

"What?! You are not Hulk or anything like that. You will die!"

"Who is Hulk? And, don"t underestimate me."

"How long will you fight?! Morons," Adult voices appeared between their debates.

Suddenly, the figure of a large man leaped close to the two young men. He looks like about 60-years with a thick mustache and beard. Wearing black armor as beautiful as obsidian stone.

"Boss!" Nero shouting.

"Daniele, Riku, you take care of the Agrya on the back. Let me face this man-eating leader," the middle-aged man commanded.

"Roger!"

The woman who seems to be named Riku throws a rope with a pendulum to the foot of Agrya behind. Make the beast fall. Instantly, the young man who appeared to be a Daniele jumped up and stabbed his sword into the paralyzed Agrya"s heart.

Meanwhile, the boss approached the Agrya leader casually while carrying his weapon--A large one-handed axe.

It is said that even the beast can feel the aura of his opponent. The leader of Agrya looks frightened. Finally, it"s decided to run.

"I will not let you get away easily!" The boss shouted as he threw his axe at the leader of the beast.

A rotating axe stuck into the Agrya leader body. Make it fall to the ground helplessly.

Lie could not believe what he saw. This battle is at another level. Even, his martial arts ability can"t keep this up.

In an instant, Riku ambushed Lie, twisting his hand and pressing him into the ground.

"Argh. What are you--"

"Hey kid, I admit your cooperation with Nero is pretty good, but as the leader of Cross Guard I can not just let you off," the boss interrupted.

"On behalf of the Cross Guard name, you"re under arrest!"
