Chapter 12An entire afternoon pa.s.sed just like that. Their little celebration and preparation end at night and each went to their own room.
Kiann was about to check whether his little sister is already sleeping and go to Karina"s room afterward when Lily come out voluntarily with a fl.u.s.tered expression on her face.
"Master please help my sisters, The spirit devourer invaded again. Please master!~" Lily begged Kiann as she kneels down to him and pleaded to save her sisters.
"Lily, I"m weak at the moment I don"t know if I can really help you of your predicament and I can only go to the spirit world once since I was only at iron rank and can only go there again when I rank up." Kiann helps her stand up first. He felt pity of her and her sisters but he is indeed powerless against such powerful creature which even them can"t fight and also helpless because the times he can go to the spirit world is limited by his rank.
"Master please!~ you are the legendary hero! You are the nemesis of those spirit devourer! See this mark?! This is the mark of the spirit world. In the legends, those who have these mark can defeat those devourers easily! And master you are an exception with those limitations of coming to the spirit world because you are the chosen one by the cat spirit world itself and you can come to our cat spirit world more frequent than the other spirit world!" She begged him again and remove his s.h.i.+rt and pointed to the mark on his chest that Kiann notice some time ago but only thinks that it is only because of the stone that"s missing and he didn"t know its usage.
Her answer gave a shock to Kiann and thought. "What? I"ve been chosen by the spirit world itself and can fight those invaders easily with the help of these mark? And I can also come there frequently? Which means I can have another spirit being? Woahhh!!"
"All right, I"ll fight alongside you and help your sister. I hope what your legend said is true, otherwise, my spirit will be devoured too and I might truly die. Let"s try out whether I can truly enter it again." Kiann agreed which makes Lily delighted as she hugged him and kiss his cheek. Kiann also felt sorry for Lily since she was neglected when he and Karina do the deed together. Kiann had been irresponsible for her because of fear that Karina might get angry. But he knew that he should face it and he also needs to be responsible to someone he took their first time with and even made a pact, connecting their minds and body.
Kiann pats her head and write down the inscription circle, sat cross-legged inside and chant. The events unfold without troubles and Kiann felt his body ripped apart. The same as before, he knew that he had succeeded and was extremely delighted deep in his heart and felt thankful to Lily that she mentioned it or else maybe even within a year or so he would still be ignorant about the privilege of the mark of the spirit world that is engraved in that stone.
"That stone is indeed a treasure!! No! I think it even surpa.s.sed the category of ordinary treasure! Then what is it?"
"Master!~ we"re here now! What I said is true, right, master?"
Kiann"s thought wandered and was jolted awake by Lily. "You are right, my Lily you are indeed my lucky star!" He praises her for a bit and patted her head.
"Right? Where are your sisters that needed help, Lily?" He then asked urgently.
"I almost forgot!! Ahh! My bad! Follow me, Master!"
The two went in a certain direction leading to their designated location and it took them about 10 minutes of running before seeing a village with various simple huts.
Kiann also notice the anomaly and look at a certain direction and saw a terrifying s.p.a.ce crack and the sky there coloured black, different from the usual one and it looks creepy.
Ting! Ting!
Ahhh!~ please help me!~
Please let me go!~
From that s.p.a.ce cracked, a weird looking creature come out continuously and poured the village as various shouts can be heard. Shouts from fighting, crying, begging, and agony.
This sight makes Kiann"s expression gloomy as he felt hatred toward those ruthless creatures like demons that he hated. Even though those cat people aren"t much related to him, he still wanted to protect them, not because he wanted to act as a hero, but because of sympathy. He felt that the world is indeed dangerous and danger lurks everywhere and those weak needed someone strong to protect them. Even Kiann needs protection as he was weak right now. And as someone who can help them, he will do it and with the addition of Lily, he must.
[Cat"s claw!]
He activated one the skills he got from Lily and the nails on his fingers become longer and sharper.
He strode forward even though he didn"t know how the mark will help him whether it needed some activation or it will automatically activate. But time waits for no man as he found a spirit devourer that looks weak and rushed towards it with hatred eyes.
The spirit devourer also notice him rus.h.i.+ng forward and instinctively attack the rus.h.i.+ng figure.
Kiann notice the attack of the weak looking devourer and dodge it with his good reflex and counterattack as he pierces his sharp claws in its heart and Kiann felt like he was cutting tofu as his hands pa.s.s through it swiftly without interruption and the mark on his chest lit up as the weak-looking devourer disintegrated and turn into ashes.
"Master! Your awesome!~ even someone stronger than me struggled when fighting that and you killed it swiftly." Lily cheered him when she saw him defeat that creature.
"I think it"s thanks to that mark. It"s not my strength at all." Kiann replied honestly.
"No master! It is your strength as that mark is now yours and fused with you completely it is no longer an external item that aided you. So it is also your strength to have it." Lily give her opinion to console him.
"Let"s go to the village right now and save those sisters of yours." Currently Kiann and Lily is just in the perimeter of the village and only kill the lost spirit devourer so only Lily notice him killing that devourer like cutting a tofu.
The two then rush towards the village as they saw some cat woman struggling to fight these creatures and the two also notice someone that is about to be devoured by the spirit devourer because of her weakened state and can"t struggle much.
After seeing that situation Kiann move towards the cat woman who needed his help and punch the devourer that is slightly stronger than the previous one straight into the face as its head was blasted into pieces and its body turned into ashes like it was burned up even though there is no fire.
The cat-woman who Kiann helped was shocked when someone brave their way forward to save her and was shocked when she saw the devourer who was about to devour her was instantly killed and its head was blasted into pieces as its body turned to ashes.
Her body shook for a moment and turned her gaze toward Kiann and wanted to thank the one who saves her. However the moment she turned her gaze towards her saviour. She was shocked once more, what she saw was the most shocking thing she could ever see.
"A hero!~ the legendary hero stated in the legends!!! You"ve come now to save our world! Thank you, thank you very much!~"
What she said didn"t even reach Kiann"s ears as he already disappeared from that spot and charge towards his another target.
Punching it as it also blew up and find another target punching it again...
This went on for a couple of times, finding a target, punching, piercing or kicking. Lily also killed some devourer and she notice that she can also kill them much easier than she was before and she credited it all to Kiann as she greatly thanked him deep inside her mind and heart.
Kiann and Lily did it in a fast way as he thought that he was lucky because there is no spirit devourer stronger and more intelligent than that or else it might be really dangerous it also might kill him.
A moment later the s.p.a.ce crack disappeared and no more devourer poured in.
The villagers that Kiann and Lily save at the clutch of death felt extremely grateful.
The entire villagers were stupefied as they see something unbelievable. They saw the legendary hero, they saw him fight and kill those devourers very easily like cutting a b.u.t.ter with a heated knife as they fell silent for a moment before everyone cheers.
"A hero!! The legendary hero stated in the legends that will save the world has come!"
"We are saved now!! This world is saved now!"
"All hail the great legendary hero!!~"
"All hail the great legendary hero!!~"
"All hail..."
Many exclaimed in surprise and delight while others are so moved that tears fall from their red eyes that even made Kiann moved and most of all, they greeted Kiann with Unison.
When Kiann saw everyone in the village he was stunned because all of them are female, not even a single male was there at all.
"f.u.c.k! This spirit world is full of beautiful p.u.s.s.y" Kiann thought inwardly.
He felt awkward that he"s the only man among these bunch of p.u.s.s.ies and he can drown himself in it and he also felt delighted that he had no rival here.
And regarding the misunderstanding, he chooses not to deny it. If he does, then he will break their hope and maybe went crazy due to mental breakdown. And only felt conflicted because of their high expectations. And Lily, who"s beside him just giggled at his reaction.
"Mister legendary hero! I want to be your companion too like sister Lily and become strong like her to help and save our world from those devourers!" A little girl that looks like a 15-year-old came up to him and ask him eagerly. The moment she saw him kill those devourers easily and he made Lily stronger that she can easily kill devourer too. She felt envious that"s why he actively volunteered herself to be his companion.
