Reincarnating Into Another World
Ep 18: Reply to the Leader's Revenge

After getting enough rest, it is now my turn to keep watch while Anastasia rests.

In the dark forest there was nothing to see but our trees and bonfires.

I just sat there watching around.

Kresekkk....

Suddenly a voice emerged behind the bush, I stood up and rushed to check it, using fire magic, I let out a small fire from my fingertips as a light.

Kresekk....

Crackling...

The closer I got to the sound the more it became clear, until I was at the source of the sound.

When I wanted to open the bush, I was shocked by Aurora holding my shoulder from behind.

"Bah... " I said while jumping in surprise. Looking at Aurora with disheveled hair already behind me, it seemed like she was also awakened by the sound of the bush.

"Sstt. Don't be noisy, the others wake up. "

"You know what ngagetin is. "

"Ahhh... Yes sorry, so you have found the source of the sound?. "

"Not yet, I just wanted to find out. "

Srakk...

Srakk...

The voice came back from behind the bush, me and Aurora and checked the bush. And when we both opened it, there was nothing there.

"There's nothing whatsoever.maybe a small animal times.. "

"Yes you're back to rest there, I'll keep watching."

As we walked back, from behind we saw a pair of eyeballs looking at us from the darkness.

Although I did not see it directly, I could feel a strong aura from there. When I looked at Aurora, maybe because she just woke up she didn't feel that aura.

When I got to sit by the campfire, Aurora went back to sleep hugging Yukka.

After that, nothing happened until the morning greeted us again.

"Huwaahhh... " Anastasia wakes up, followed by Yukka and Aurora, while Tohru wakes up first.

With the rest of the meat yesterday, Yukka made breakfast for us to eat before continuing the journey.

I took the initiative to find some fruit in the forest as a food additive for us. I also invited Tohru to help me, even with a dirty face she also came with me.

We walked quite a distance into the forest, until our basecamp was nowhere to be seen again.

Not knowing what to chat with Tohru, the situation became awkward.Tak want things to continue like this, I decided to start the conversation.

"A.. Anu's... Tohru's... "

"Hmmmpp"

"Ceritain dong about you dong.. "

"Why do you want to know about me, it's not enough to just torture me to this extent!!" she replied in a resentful tone.

"Not so, I just want to know about you in order to understand you, open as a master and a servant, but as a friend."

Hearing my words Tohru sighed, it seemed like she had started to talk to me even though her face still looked annoyed.

"All right, I'll tell you a few. You've realized that if Anastasia and I know each other, it's because wyverns and dragons lived together peacefully. Until one day one of the higher-ups of the wyverns broke the war, we were finally exiled and always hostile to the dragon nation. "

"Yes, I was ordered to attack the city knowing that Anastasia and Aurora were there. "

"So yes, will you be fine after failing to carry out the mission?. "

"It looks like he won't care about me, for him I'm just a pawn that can be replaced at any time. "

"Oh yes, if you may know the name of the person who gave you this task?. "

"His name is Jiy-"

Haven't finished his words, I pushed Tohru.

"You what the hell.. Suddenly pushing... "

An arrow stuck in my left abdomen.

"Hoho.. good reflexes, when I don't intend to hit you, but you foolishly protect the woman. "

Said a woman who came out from the thick trees of the forest, she had horns, tail, and wings just like Tohru, She carried a bow as a weapon.

"Ugh.. I. I can't move... "

"Miss-nin.... "

"Hahahahaha, obviously you've been poisoned and you're going to die soon... And now it's time to kill you, Tohru. "

The woman drew her bow preparing to attack Tohru. Not staying silent, Tohru runs into the woman trying to attack her.

The fight between them broke out, Tohru and the woman replying to each other but it was seen that the woman was superior to Tohru.

"Gwahhhhhhh... "

Tohru jumped backwards after getting a crushing attack on her face.

"What is this?, is Tohru as weak as this it is appropriate that master throw you away... "

Provoked by his words, Tohru again darted and attacked the woman.

I try to strengthen myself to stand up, but my body hurts a lot when moved.

"Come on. come onhh... "

I managed to stand up even with great pain, I took out my katana sword and started helping Tohru.

I ran forward to attack the woman, I slashed my sword at her, but she was able to fend her off with the bow she was holding.

Tohru continued the attack along with me, we both gave the attack in turn to him, but all was avoidable.

On the contrary, many attacks from the woman hit us, especially Tohru.

The woman darted towards Tohru, then kicked her right in the chest, Tohru was bounced bumping into several trees and fell unconscious.

All that was left was me, with my remaining energy I launched a few slashes at him, but the result remained the same.

"Have not rebelled, you will also die.. "

The woman caught my sword with her finger, then clenched her hand and struck right at the arrow that stuck in my belly made it penetrate my stomach.

"Gwahhhhhhh.. "

I sat down, blood started pouring out of my stomach and mouth.

"Is this the end of it..."

I said in my heart, I was trying my hardest to stay conscious, but it felt really hard. Until the moment I was almost unconscious I heard a voice calling my name.

"Myan..... "
