Chapter 19 | Victory (Part 1)

Shaun's POV:

"EVERYONE ATTACK THAT GIRL!!"

Those were the captains famous last words, Ex-Imperial Knight Bylat. After retiring from his position in the imperial knight corps he's been working as an adventurer in the capital, we were supposedly lucky enough to be apart of his squad during this subjugation quest, but that information was extremely wrong. Not even a second had passed before his head was rolling on the floor, even his body was left briefly standing before collapsing to the ground.

"Wh-... CAPTAIN?!!"

Captain Bylat was one of our strongest X ranks here, yet his head was separated from his body as swiftly as a knife passing through butter.

"Shaun, lets run! We can't fight that thing!"

Loren was trying to drag me away from the onslaught occurring right before my eyes, not only had I just witnessed an extremely powerful man get obliterated, but all of the other high ranking adventurers were diving in and getting massacred as well.

"Shaun!"

I snapped back to reality, Loren smacked me in my face and was looking at me very sternly, I felt so light headed that it was almost as if gravity stopped existing for a second.

"Make the call Shaun, we run or we die!"

Without even a second thought, I told her.

"We run Loren, if we survive we can deliver this information to the king!"

With that, Loren and I made our mad dash back to the cart, the screams from our comrades were slowly drowned out by the density of the trees. We reached the carts and detached two horses, Loren and I wasted no time mounting them and riding through the forest, we needed to get away.

"We aren't deserters, right Loren?"

"No Shaun, we're not. If we don't get this information to the king we may never be able to eliminate that monster!"

We rode through the forest without a single glance back, praying for our safety.

Satine's POV:

This tank is extremely crafty, he dips in and out of my sight, constantly attacking me from my blind sides and openings. It's still hard to comprehend how he is that strong, he's able to move around at an insane speed while wearing that heavy full body armor and wielding a sword and shield at the same time.

"Don't get side tracked demon king!"

The tank charged me with a shield bash, it wasn't a very well prepared because I dodged it with ease.

"You're not getting away!"

The tank dropped his shoulder and swung his blade at my left side where I was open.

"Hoh, you're pretty fast for a tank."

I couldn't dodged his attack, it was just too quick.
