Chapter 129: Lily’s Courage
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When one of the bandits was undergoing such a great change, no one present expected it. Not just Zoro, Kathleen, Charles, and the others, but even the few bandits who were still alive did not expect this.
Moreover, it seemed that the change in the bandit caused a fright to the other bandits. The eyes of the bandit with the missing arm became even redder. He kept sizing up Zoro and the others, and in the end, his gaze stopped at Kathleen and the tent. He stared fixedly at the tent for a long time as if he
kmew someone was inside.
suddenly, with his only remaining arm, he waved. A strong gust of wind blew up the entire tent. Lily ran quickly behind Kathleen.
“Not a bad furnace,” said the bandit sinisterly.
“Watch out, Kathleen. Protect Lily,” Zoro shouted quickly.
As if possessed, the bandit kept approaching Lily and Kathleen. Zoro and Charles hurriedly ran over to protect Lily. The three of them finally came together.
Just as the three of them were about to attack this bandit, who was possessed, with all their might, they suddenly discovered a string of sounds coming from behind them. Upon a closer look, it was actually the dark gray worms crawling out from the carcasses of the wild beasts they had killed earlier.
‘When most of them had crawled onto the ground, they actually exploded, forming balls of red fog. They were similar to the fog that had injured Charles earlier, except that they were bigger and had more energy.
The possessed bandit waved his hand and the red fog actually started to change according to the direction of his hand. In the end, it formed a red palm, and was stretching out in Zoro’s direction.
Before Zoro and the others could escape, they saw the huge hand covering their head, and they quickly used all their energy to protect them.
Kathleen also held Lily tightly in her arms, afraid that she would be harmed the slightest.
The large hand passed through a few people and suddenly exploded into a mist of blood. It quickly dissipated, leaving no traces.
The seemingly weak blood mist actually made Zoro, Charles, and Kathleen lose their balance. They swayed and finally sat on the ground.
The three of them felt as if the energy within their bodies was no longer under their control. They could not even move their bodies as they sat on the ground.
The bandit walked toward the few of them with a ferocious expression. “Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. After all, I have finally caught a few people who cultivate magical power. I want…”
Before the bandit could finish, he saw Lily break free from Kathleen’s arms, her little wooden sword in her hand. Despite the fear which had caused her hands to begin to tremble, she forced herself to be calm. “Don’t come over. I’m very powerful too.”
The mist earlier had been mainly targeted at Zoro and the other two who had energy, so Lily, as an ordinary person, had not been affected at all.
“Lily, don’t go over.” Zoro quickly used the last bit of his strength to speak to Lily. He even wanted to stand up to stop Lily, but his body was not under his control.
Lily’s hands were trembling more and more, and so was her little wooden sword. However, Lily continued to walk forward, one step at a time. “My ancestors were top-notch Magi. I’m not afraid of you. I have very good genes. Moreover, it was you who killed my parents. I’m going to kill you to take my
revenge.”
At the mention of her parents, Lily suddenly dashed out and held out her wooden sword. “I want to kill you.”
After she had finished speaking the last few words, Lily closed her eyes in fear. In fact, she had already spoken those few words countless times in her mind. However, previously, Lily had wanted to say this to her enemy only after she had become a particularly powerful Mage. She did not expect to have to
say this so early.
And when she charged forward, she was almost certainly going to die, but Lily did not regret this. She closed her eyes and waited for death to arrive.
Soon, it was over. It was very quiet around her. Lily could only hear her own heartbeat. “Why hasn’t the bad guy made a move yet?” Lily thought.
Out of curiosity, she opened her eyes and saw a scene that she could not believe.
The little wooden sword, which had just been ordinary, now emitted a golden light. The light carried the wooden sword and penetrated the enemy’s chest. The bandit’s expression was blank, and he could not believe all of this.
Lily looked around in disbelief and suddenly realized that a white fog had appeared behind her. In the white fog, there was a long-bearded old grandpa looking at her benevolently and smiling at her.
All of this had happened so suddenly that Lily could not believe what had happened. For a moment, she even wondered if she was dreaming.
Then, the wooden sword seemed to start to vibrate. It kept flying outwards as if it had a life of its own. Lily tried her best to control it, but it still flew out.
Enveloped by the golden light, the wooden sword began to gradually grow in size, turning into a golden longsword. It pierced toward the bandit’s heart again. Unexpectedly, the edges of the bandit’s wound began to rapidly disintegrate outward. In an instant, he had tured into dust and scattered in the
air.
The golden longsword danced in the air, and killed the few bandits who were still alive. Then, it flew toward the distant mountain peak at an even faster speed.
At this moment, in a dark cave, an old man in a local ethnic costume was sitting cross-legged as if he was casting a spell.
suddenly, the old man seemed to have sensed something, He let out a muffled groan from his throat and suddenly opened his eyes, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.
“What is going on? What kind of magical power was that? There is actually such a person in this world.” The old man simply did not dare to believe that a person of a higher level than him had actually appeared. No, he should not have described him as a person because he was only an illusion, and should
not even be a real person.
The other party was many times stronger than his own magical power.
Faced with such a situation, the old man suddenly dashed into an even dimmer room, intending to find some strategies to resolve this. At this moment, a burst of buzzing sounds came into the old man’s ears.
The impact of the loud sounds made the old man hold his head instantly, trying to stop the sounds.
As he turned around, a beam of golden light shot out from the wall and pierced into the old man.
“Ah!” The old man was shocked by the sudden light. He did not have the chance to react at all. He watched powerlessly as the golden light pierced his body and continued to exert force downwards. He was sliced into two just like that. The old man did not even have the chance to resist.
After killing the old man, the golden sword seemed to have completed its mission. It circled around in the air to ensure that the old man was dead before returning the same route..
