Chapter 162: Huntsman 2

Chapter 162: Huntsman 2

Clyde's eyes burst, and he yelled. "Closed the gate!"

RaAarRW!

Althord yelled and leaped into the air before crushing inside the Right Oasis. Clouds of dust and pebbles flew from where he landed, and everyone covered their eyes with their hands.

"What the!" the first one to speak couldn't continue his words when his head flew from his shoulders.

With a flick of his fingers, Althord swiped his spear, and everybody that stood within ten meters from him was but torn flesh and guts.

AaArRgh!

Chaos erupted in the camp, and everyone panicked while some brandished their weapons in an attempt to kill the demon that was posing as Althord. But they weren't strong nor fast enough against the tiniest might of Tiamat that infused with Althord's body.

Clyde was speechless and couldn't react. He blanked out for a moment before he regained his wits when a blood splattered on his face.

It wasn't a beast that was posing as Althord. It couldn't be since beast, nor any form of creatures outside the protective zone, couldn't enter the Oasis.

It must really be Althord. Something must have happened for him to turn out this way, and Clyde didn't have time to ponder what.

"Sound the alarm!" Clyde shouted, running to Reyna's tent while Althord was occupied with the other mercs. "Gather everyone and kill that thing!"

They still have a few Rank-A mercs remaining in the Oasis, but the majority already left to search for the exit and hunt beasts.

What lousy timing! Clyde thought. He doubled in speed when the cries and screams intensified tenfold. Looking back, blood and guts spilled from Althord's spear. No amount of spell nor skill seemed to be working against it.

Althord's body just reconstructed again and again like he became immortal while all who grazed his skin burned and turned to ashes within seconds.

Just what exactly happened outside the protective zone?!

Clyde was nearing Reyna's tent when Althord suddenly landed in front of him with a scorched head in his hand.

Clyde yelped, and he fell on his butt while the head in Althord's hand turned to ashes as the latter approached Clyde with red glowing eyes, promising death.

"A-Althord!" Clyde stuttered and raised his hands, "snap out of it! What's the matter with you?!"

Clyde crawled away when Althord showed no sign of stopping.

"I'm warning you! You can't hurt me! Reyna is protecting me! Shell kill you!"

Raargh. .. a low guttural growl rumbled in Althord's chest, and a cloud of smokes erupted from his cracked skin and mouth.

"Snap out of it, you damn fool!" Clyde bellowed, but his breath hitched in his throat when a glimmer of a spear went past him, and the next thing he knew, his hands fell off, and blood splattered everywhere, drenching his face and clothes.

"AaArGH!" An agonizing scream tore from Clyde's throat.

Althord loomed over him, and he raised his spear to end Clyde's life once and for all.

Clyde's pupils shook and crawled to Althord's demonic form before he shut his eyes tight when Althord brought down his spear.

BaAmM!

The spear hit the sand, and Clyde found himself twenty meters away from Althord while Reyna held him by the collar.

The Demoness was naked, baring her large breasts and clean-shaven pussy before dark shadows took form as an armor around her. "I thought something was going on with the noise and such, but I certainly didn't expect this scene."

"Reyna!" Clyde said and cried, "Quick, help me! Heal my arms!"

"Shut up." Reyna tossed Clyde on the side and poked her ear from his shriek. If she didn't perform the Seal of Promise with him, she'd personally end him for being too loud.

"It's just your arm. It's not like it's your dick," Reyna spat but healed Althord's hands nonetheless. It would be bad if the weak mortal bled to death just because of a simple wound.

"It's Althord! I don't know what's happening to him!" Clyde explained while Reyna didn't care who the man with burnt skin was.

All she was interested in was the anomaly within Althord. The power that made him mad and wiped out the Rank-A mercs that he couldn't do before. Whose power was he using? Did he find a treasure, perhaps?

"You, where did you get that power?" Reyna was very much interested, but Althord only replied with a growl.

"I see. You already lost all reason." Sharp long claws itched from Reyna's hands and feet, and her lips ripped apart to give way to her long fangs and jagged teeth. "I'll rip the answer from your corpse then!"

Reyna bolted in Althord's direction and attacked him with her lethal claws while the latter contented with the Demoness in speed and avoided her attack with ease.

They were in lock combat for almost five minutes, and when Reyna's claws found their marks on Althord's chest, the Demoness leaped back and hissed.

Her claws turned to dust while Althord's torn flesh sprouted lava blood before his cracked burnt skin like charcoaled rocks crackled and reformed to close his wound.

This put a sweat on Reyna's beautiful face. The human was now an immortal and with power and strength equal to her or even greater.

Though it was only minutes since their battle started, Reyna felt the power surging from Althord's, biting at her every pore. It was a dominating power that forced even her to bend her knees. There was also a hallow of a beast behind Althord, and Reyna feared that it was the Queen of Dragons.

If so. .. they were in serious shit.

Reyna took a peek at Clyde. The important thing was to keep him alive until they reached the exit. She didn't care about the rest. If worse came to worst, she'd flee with him in tow.

But first. .. she'd try if she could defeat the anomaly in front of her. She took quite a liking to her current life now, and she wasn't in the mood to give that up.

"Let's see what you are made of!" Reyna leaped back, and multiple pentagrams appeared behind her, casting shadows over the dessert. And soon, multiple skeleton-like hands in the form of dark haze went out of the pentagrams and attacked Althord simultaneously.
