Mill and Gi Da ran at almost the same time when they heard that scream, but because of her injuries, it was Gi Da who arrived first.

There Gi Da saw that a fearsome adventurer had caught Reshia by the neck, prompting Lili to quickly reach for the sword by her waist. But it was neither her nor Reshia who had screamed just now, but the human women who had followed Reshia.

"GU, GURURUAa!"

Anger filled Gi Da at the sight of the king's treasure being manhandled, and he kicked off the ground to strike out his spear against the adventurer.

"Hmph."

But Gulland only snorted as he brandished his sword and easily dodged Gi Da's spear. In the next instant, blood spurted out of Gi Da, and he fell to the ground.

"Let go!" Reshia demanded, but Gulland only laughed at her.

Then he saw Lili point her blade at him. "What are you doing? I'm not so nice as to hold back against little kids and women."

Like a voice from hell, it chilled Lili's heart when she heard it. But enduring the chill running up her back she only prayed she would not shake holding her sword as she glared at the man before her.

"If you raise your hand against my master, then I will stop you even at the cost my life."

"Master, huh? You should go play house elsewhere, this here's my playground, you see."

Gulland swung his great sword.

Lili found her legs shaking at that, and for a moment she even felt death, causing her to reflexively close her eyes.

But the blade never came, and what resounded next were only the sounds of metals clanging and a tongue clicking.

"...What are you doing?" Gulland asked, to which the assassin answered in a voice filled with more hate than when she spoke to the goblins. "What am I doing? What are YOU doing, Gulland? Let go of her now!"

Mill had jumped over Gulland and attacked him, then after fixing her posture, stood opposite him.

"And if I say I won't?" Gulland choked Reshia even harder, causing her to choke.

"I will cut those fingers!" As Mill grit her teeth loud enough to be heard, she jumped high up in the air with her talons crossed over each other. Lili wasn't sure what was going on, but she held her sword anyway and went after Gulland. The both of them together should be enough to deal with one adventurer.

But things didn't go the way they expected. Gulland's great sword, heavy as it was, was much faster than they could have ever thought. He easily parried Mill's attack from above while deflecting Lili's attack from below.

"What's the matter girls? Didn't you want to play? Well, bring it on!"

While Gulland made fun of the two girls, the sound of a pained groaned suddenly reached their ears.

"The hell?" Gulland said looking down on his feet from which a small layer of skin had been cut. It was Gi Da who had cut him. And though it was but a scratch, that attack had done more than enough: it managed to get his attention. And that was not something Lili or Mill would let pass.

"Tch."

Immediately, Lili unleashed her Three-Stage Slash against Gulland, who then blocked with his sword, but then sensing another presence from above, Gulland struck up towards the air, but his sword met nothing.
