Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 19 The Danger of The Winter



"We went to the south forest because there was a rumor about an increase of a magical beast population, so guild decided to post a quest for adventurers to bring back a magical beast's item and they will pay for it. Everyone really excited about it, a lot of adventurers went there because they thought this mission isn't gonna be so hard, yet now as you can see, not only I injured so bad, we even lose our party member"

Cellica looks like she's gonna burst to cry, but it seems she can hold it, even though there was a bit of tear coming out from her eye, but she quickly wipes it.

After hearing Merlin's story, my sister's face went pale, she might be worried about our safety if we keep staying in this village after seeing the condition herself also the magical beast might attack anytime.

I finally able to move my muscles a bit, I tried to reach Ilya-nee's hand, a warm feeling of her hand flow through my whole body, every time I'm around her, I feel safe, yet I always feel like I have to keep Ilya-nee safe.

"Did you guys only met a wolf magical beast?"

My sudden question shocked Ilya-nee, hoe did I know about the magical beast, I even know what kind of magical beast it is, she held my hand tightly and just turn her look towards me.

"A bear, a big bear and some packs of a wolf type"

I'm surprised by how Merlin able to maintain her cool expression, my sister and her friend even make a frightened look on their face, Ilya-nee keeps on holding my hand tightly.

I finally able to sit in after trying hard to get up, my head still feels a bit heavy, but I'm trying my best not to feel the pain and just sit still.

"Wait, bear?"

I just realize I heard something like a bear just now, I couldn't think of anything about how it looks or whatsoever, I only met a wolf type of magical beast, they are pretty strong enough though.

My sister looks worried and making a "are we gonna be okay" face which is normal I think, after you witnessed what the magical beast did to these people, you won't really feel safe.

I'm stronger than before, even though it's only a week since the last incident of me got attacked in the forest, right now I feel like I can protect Ilya-nee, I can feel it.

I look at Ilya-nee with a bit confused face, she's the one who told Uncle that she would stay here, that's why I need to train harder to protect Ilya-nee.

"Yeah a bear, it's so strong. We met it when it ate a dead wolf body. We should've just to run at that time, but the bear notices us and chase us down"

It feels a bit strange that she said they got attacked by the bear, but somehow I feel like her injuries were caused by the wolf's claw, I'm sure of it.

"After that, we decided to fight it, we got overwhelmed and Dio, he's our party leader told us to run while he stays behind our back and distract the bear and run after that. But in time we ran away, we met a pack of wolves, while there was a bear type chasing us down behind our back. We can't really go anywhere, so we decided to fight them and as you can see, we lose Dio and one of our other party member and I got injured, we were lucky enough to be able to get away from that situation"

The words that come out from this woman's mouth is so cold, but I can feel her sadness, but also relieved feeling, I can't tell why I have such presumption, I just feel like she didn't tell the truth, but I don't want to bring it up and just went along with her story.

I'm finally able to move my body after a while, I can feel my strength back to my body, at least my body didn't feel numb anymore and I'm able to move every part of my body.

We are having chat for a while now, and it's about time for dinner, so my sister decided to offer them a dinner together in this house.

But the Merlin girl refuses, she said she can't thank enough for what I did earlier, she said I even went through some troubles just to save her life, well for me saving other people's lives is important.

"Here"

Merlin hand out her book of magic I borrow before, I look at the Cellica and she looks shocked that her friend hand over such a book to me.

"You need it more than I do, you deserve it, please accept it as my gratitude"

Merlin even bow again to me just to hand over a book about magic to me, I decided to take it from her since I think it's rude to refuse now.

"Thank you for your help, we will go to the inn and rest there for tonight"

I and my sister see them off from our front door, the girls walk their way to the inn, maybe they will feel bad if they stay longer, actually, I don't really mind since my sister is also kind.
