Chapter 54: Catacombs Forest(2)
Chapter 54: Catacombs Forest(2)
As Kelan was about to ignore the childish woman and go his way, he felt a cold blade on his neck from behind.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry for showing up late. I didn't know that there was an intruder" a voice sounded from behind.
Kelan could feel the pressure of the blade getting tougher on his neck and a trickle of blood rolled down his neck.
Using his force field, Kelan was able to stop the blade from cutting deeper through his neck, he leaped to the front, twisting his body in the air, and landed a few meters away.
He saw a man clad in lightweight armor, staring at him with killing intent.
'Die!!!!'
The bodyguard roared, and the next moment he was in front of Kelan.
"Shit! A speed ability user!" Kelan cursed as he dodged the sudden swing of the large sword aimed at him.
[Inspect]
[Race: Elf]
[Name: Macraw Boney]
[Rank: B-rank supe]
[Ability Type: Speed]
[Age:???????]
Kelan used the momentum to gauge his opponent as he evaded the swift attacks.
Kelan was having a hard time dodging the broad sword his opponent kept swinging at him in rapid flows.
"This is my first time fighting a skilled and experienced super, coupled with the speed ability. Mystro was right, my fighting skills suck" Kelan thought as he used flash steps, appearing at the back of his opponents and slamming his fist on his back with all the strength he could muster.
Bang!!!!!
Macraw was sent flying a few meters away as Kelan slammed his fists on his back.
Macraw stood up and spat a mouthful of blood while he glared at Kelan with his slit eyes.
"Now I have a reason to kill you, where did you learn flash steps? You filthy human. Who are you?" Macraw roared as he picked his sword and charged at Kelan.
"Wait!!!!!!"
A voice sounded from behind, stopping Macraw in place."Your highness, please let me deal with this filth" Macraw gritted his teeth.
"Leave him alone Macraw"
"B-But y-your highness, I caught him peeping at you, his majesty must not know about it, or else he will send my head rolling on the floor"
"No! He's going on his way, I guess I overreacted, if you also didn't see my nakedness, how did you know that he was peeping on me. Humph, maybe you need to have your head rolling then" the princess snorted.
"Y-your highness, it's not what you're thinking, I'm just here to protect you" Macraw replied with a red face.
Kelan wasn't interested in the Bodyguard and princess conversation, only saving Regan was in his mind, then he used a healing pill and proceeded to take his leave.
"Wait!! Won't you tell me your name at least? I'm sorry for accusing you, my name is Alea. I'm the elven Princess" Alea said.
"Your highness, you are giving out too much information. He's just a human!" Macraw retorted.
However, Alea ignored Macraw's ramblings.
"My name is Kelan," Kelan replied and he began to move away from the Princess.
"Wait!" The princess shouted again.
"What is it this time around?" Kelan replied with a disgusted expression on his face.
"Where are you going? Maybe I should give you a ride." Alea replied.
"Princess!! He's a stranger!" Macraw groaned.
"No thanks, I'm out to save my friend, thanks for your generosity" Kelan replied and he began moving away from the princess, swearing inwardly that he wouldn't answer the princess if she called him again.
"Hey! Kelan, how about I escort you to save your friend" Alea shouted at Kelan's figure but Kelan didn't bat an eye.
"Your highness, you've gone too far, I can't allow you to follow him, even if it means defying your orders," Macraw said with a poker face.
"Humph" Alea snorted. However, different thoughts were running through her mind.
"Why am I having this feeling? I feel like I need his touch on my body, or have I fallen in love with him, but how is that possible? He's a human. Sigh..... What am I even thinking? But I wish I could see him one more time.
If only I hadn't attacked him on sight" Alea shook her head as she made her way towards her carriage.
Unbeknownst to Alea, Kelan and her little brother had fought a life and death battle before.

Following the Gps on his watch which had started to dwindle, Kelan arrived at a large cave with big trees shielding it from the sun and also made it unnoticed to the naked eyes, but since Kelan leveled up, his six senses had drastically improved.
[Master, something is off with that cave] Gina said in a trembling voice.
"I can also smell the dense stench of blood" Kelan mumbled and he could also see that the Gps was faintly flickering within the zone.
Following the dense stench of blood, Kelan could see humanoid skulls and bones here and there on the floor as he slowly approached the cave, the stench of blood also kept getting denser as he moved towards the cave, with his heart throbbing as he could see piles of humanoid skulls which he guessed that they were elves or humans skulls.
"What the hell is this place?" Kelan mumbled and he decided to inspect the cave before approaching whatever was inside.
Crouching down and hiding his presence behind a tree, Kelan activated his eyes of abhorrence.
Making him see through the cave.
However, when his eyes landed on where Regan was, he became horrified.
"D-Demons" Kelan mumbled as he could see the demons roasting a human on a bonfire while they jubilated and made weird dances.
Kelan could also see Regan tied like a lamb and ready to be used as the next steak.
[Inspect]
[Race: Demons]
[Subclass: Wendigos]
[Ranks: They are all B-rank]
[Numbers:?????]
[Positions:?????]
"They are all B-rank" Kelan muttered and he summoned the cursed weapon from his space ring.
