chapter 95

“Come with me Viezda, let’s hunt a few more of those Giant Termites.”

It was inevitable that Lilinor would get bored since she couldn’t join in on the fun, but the priority right now was to get Viezda’s level up.

“Johra!”

The termites were still a bit hesitant to attack us, so I had no choice but to dash forward towards them.

I Swung my sword to the closest one, and then moved on to the next. The idea wasn’t to kill them, just ensure that I had secured their aggro. I could hear the sound on their mandibles chomping down from behind me, but I was already somewhat used to it and it no longer scared me.

Pukk

I look back and realize that I have about twenty of them following me.

Schik! Schik! Schik! Tak Tak

“Ha, It’s not the first time I’m chased down by your kind. Poison Fog!”

As I ran around kiting them, I cast Poison Fog behind me, and after about 5 seconds they had all been afflicted.

“Viezda, hit them with a maximum power fireball!”

“Essence of Fire, rain fury down on thy enemies. Fireball!”

Viezda fell down to the ground due to having overtaxed her mana consumption, but surprisingly the termites had not died as of yet.

“Oh right, isn’t she only level 1 now?”

It was only at that moment that we had actually gotten ourselves into a bit of a dangerous situation

“Don’t worry too much Johra, I’ve already taken the liberty of setting up the Rohim’s energy shield.

Tong!

The Giant Termites were bearing down on me, but were blocked by the Rohim’s shield.

“phew~”

I walked casually towards Viezda, making sure to extend the shield to protect her as well.

“When she wakes up, I should instead tell her to control her power next time.”

It took quite a while until she finally woke up.

“Master?”

“Yes”

Schik! Schik!

The termites had not yet given up on attempting to get through the shield. In fact, by communicating through their pheromones, they had called over some reinforcements and we were surrounded by hundreds of them.

“Uh… did this happen because of me? I’m sorry.”

“I simply nodded gently, and caressed her face as she fell asleep peacefully. Her face was still pale as she had not yet fully recovered. I was expecting for her to easily kill the termites and with the level up her MP would have recovered much quicker. It was my miscalculation which landed us in this awkward position.

“Johra?”

Lilinor appeared on the edge of the trees, not too far away. Just the person I wanted to see.

“Did you need some help?”

“Yes please!”

“Polymorph!”

I saw Lilinor change into her dragon form.

“Poison Fog!”

I cast it everywhere around me, noticing that there were somewhere between 200 and 300 termites which had me surrounded.
