Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

Chapter 133 The Mantis Stalks The Cicada, Unaware Of The Oriole Behind 2...

"AHHH!!!" Duna screamed in pain.

Carla backed off as she instinctively pulled out her sword. However, her hand was shaking in fear and confusion as to what was happening.

Meanwhile, Zi also stood there frozen.

"Ponzi!!! What the Fuck are you doing!?" Duna asked. His blood poured from the wound like it was freshly burst pipe. "You SNAKE! You said we would share the money together."

"Share the money!?" Ponzi had a sarcastic smile on his face, "you want me to share two Blue beast cores with you? Are you so foolish to believe that i will let that amount of money go? That's enough to pay up all my father's debt and Even get us a new house," he had an expression of bliss on face. Evidence that he was thinking about it.

"Who knows, we might even get to have a manor like that of the Chief."

"But... but," Duna stammed, and then he looked at the body of his now dead sister has her headless body gave the white snow a prettier color.

"Luna!" he muttered lowly. He gritted his teeth, "I'll kill you for this," he used his other hand to pull out his sword and rushed for Ponzi. However, Duna was not in the best condition to fight, and he was not even the same cultivation level as Ponzi. This was his end.

Ponzi only moved once, and half of Duna's face had fallen to the ground. It rolled like a meat ball trying to escape the plate, and only stopped beside his sister's.

The rest of fell to the ground.

Zi could not believe what was happening, and fear made her fall to her knees. Below her, the snow melted as her pee stained the ground.

Meanwhile, Carla still pointed her shaky sword at Ponzi.

"Do... Don't come any closer!" she tried to coordinate her thoughts properly but everything that just happened was a strong blow to her mind.

Ponzi advanced slowly. One step at a time. He raised his sword high. Carla might have had A-grade Dantain, but she was still at the mid-stage of the wood rank.

She was absolutely nothing compared to him.

"leave her alone!" a scared voice was heard from behind.

Ponzi turned to the scared and shaking Zi, "don't worry little cousin. you'll get your turn."

He turned once more to Carla. Some of the blood from the twins had stained his face, but he did not care, "I'm sorry Carla. At first I sincerely wanted to help you heal your mother. But a lot things happened. My father has so much debt on his head. By some coincidence, he was able to find a sick man a few days ago that wants this flower. He is even willing to pay up to two blue cores for it."

He took a step forward, "forgive me. I have had a hard life, and the cultivation world is not fair!"

He brought his sword down.

*Swoosh!*

Blood splashed on Carla's face.

She was shocked by what she was seeing.

Ponzi was also shocked.

Instinctively, he looked down. A black crooked blade had pierced right through his heart.

he had been leader of this party for a long time, and he knew the shapes and looks of all the swords in his team.

And this sword through his chest was the one that stood out the most amongst all of them.

Chiron walked to Ponzi's side. His appearance was like the arrival of a ghost.

Ponzi had not felt it at all when he arrived. Only when Chiron had shown himself.

Ponzi stood frozen as Chiron looked him the eyes. He dug a hand into Ponzi's shirt and removed the flower.

"Chi... Chi... Impossible!" Ponzi coughed up some blood, "how!?" Surprise was on his face.

But Chiron could really not bother to explain to an already dead man.

From the front, he touched his blade, and it morphed through Ponzi's chest, piecing his inner organs as it did.

Ponzi fell on his side. Even as his eyes closed never to open forever, he still did not understand what had happened.

Where had he gone wrong? How did Chiron not Die by the hands of the same creature that killed his mother, and made his father a cripple?

Such questions were mysteries he would never get answers to.

Chiron turned to Carla.

Immediately his eyes lay on her, she panicked.

However, he dropped his sword, and opened his arms wide.

She paused, and then she looked at him again. Tears suddenly filled her eyes, and she rushed into his embrace.

She screamed and cried like she had never done so before.

Her tears stained his clothes, and her fingers dug into them. From time to time, Chiron could feel her body still shake with fear.

"There, there. Its alright now, I'm here. I'm here!"

Her head was so deep in his embrace that she had not noticed the crazy smile on his face.

This Plan was one that had taken quite a while, but the first Phase was finally over.

At first it was just a crush, but with this, Chiron was positive that he had crested himself in Carla's heart.

After all, Chiron was a person that mostly paid attention.

There was a reason why stories from his previous world about knights saving damsels in distress was always very famous.

Chiron was not a Knight, but it did not matter. All he had to do was make sure that the damsel was in distress, and hopeless.

What happened a few days ago was quite simple.

Chiron had done his investigation about each individual of his party.

Zi had the easiest life, but was also the easiest to deceive.

The twins, Duna and Luna came from a home with moderately okay family, but ensured that their greed for a better life always hovered above their heads.

Ponzi on the other hand, apart from Carla, had the hardest life.

Troubled waters was always the best to fish.

A few nights ago was the first encounter Chiron had with Aggro, Ponzi's father.

Just like any other Drunk at the table, Chiron had told his story of how he was a guest from a foreign clan that had come to the Chikitsa clan to heal his sick father who was of the Copper rank at Elder Ellen's mansion.

But was met with a long queue of people that had been waiting for months.

This was already common knowledge within the clan.

He narrated how It would take his father several months to reach his turn, and by then, he might be already be dead.

Even though he was wearing a mask to cover half of his face, he had cried bitterly at the table of how much he loved his father, and would give anything for him.

The next time he came to the bar, he narrated that one of the maids working under Elder Ellen had seen his father and taken pity on him. One look at his father, and she had told him that he did not need to wait this long on the queue and that if he had a Snow white Tulip Flower, his father could be healed.

It was at this point that he proposed that who so ever was to help get the flower would be rewarded with two blue beast cores.

He even placed one of the Blue beast cores in the hands of the very trustworthy Bartender as evidence of his sincerity.

It was at this point that Aggro remembered that his son was going to hunt for a Snow White Tulip Flower.

Naturally, he had brought his son the next day to the bar, and the bartender had shown Ponzi the blue cored stone as evidence.

The father and son pair had a lot of debts to pay, this was a saving grace that had fallen on their laps.

Aggro could not stop singing into Ponzi's head to do whatsoever it took to get the Snow white Tulip flower.

Ponzi then told the twins that have come to trust him for so long, about this, and told them that if they helped him, he would give them a cut.

They were very excited by this.

Right from the start, the twins never liked Chiron, but he had proven his capabilities again and again. They had no choice but to continually bare with his presence.

In other words, he was useful.

This was the reason why they did not mind when the Essence Draining Spider had come for him. They did not even bother with saving him.

Chiron had already suspected this since he met them.

But it was further confirmed during the attack from the Giant grey horned Ape.

Back then, Chiron had caught each and every of their expressions.

Human beings were always seen at their truest in the presence of survival or Self interest.

After getting the power from the egg, Chiron had used a shorter cut to reach the top of the mountain.

After all, the shortest distance between two places was always a straight line.

It was a straight line from the center of the mountain to the top.

And then it was easy from there.

He had devil's touch and Hunter clear all the plants in the area, harvesting all of them and dumping it in his Storage...
