BXBX NOVEL Chapter 867 Party!
"Oh, what a big and mighty man you are, hahahaha!"
"Stop fooling around! From now on, we'll sleep just half the night, then keep walking…"
"That's not fair!"
She kept screaming like this for the next hours, for the next day, until her shouts brought the attention of many monsters.
"Watch how they'll get scared away by my presence," when the first batch of monsters appeared, a group of thorny tailed lions, she waved her long hair and stepped up for tens of metres ahead of William while saying this.
"Stop…"
"Don't worry, monsters always get scared when they see me, prostrate themselves even to gain my blessings… What the heck are you doing? Stay back! Dammit! I said stay back, wild cats!! William… Help me William, please save me from them!!!"
"..."
William was stupefied in his place for a few seconds by her foolishness and naiveness. She thought monsters would recognise her, but in their eyes she was a tasty snack!
As she stepped up and walked for a hundred metres ahead of him, these lions didn't care about her, and came for her neck! She ran, tried to outrun and evade them, but she was a mere white grade master, a very weak being in front of these silver grade monsters.
"Scarm!" William took out his flying weapons, waved his hand and then a massacre landed. He didn't need to move a muscle to get all of them killed. And when the monsters chasing after her got killed, she was finally able to run towards William, grab him from behind, and use him as a shield.
William planned to shower her with mocking and harsh comments and words. But when she touched his body, he felt how fiercely shaking his body was.
He felt sorry for her. She was, after all, a monster who stood on the pinnacle of power in this world, one which didn't need to even worry about any other monster or master in the world for a long time already.
He took a deep breath, sighed, and removed all the words he intended to say from his brain. He killed all the monsters in a few minutes, turned to her and looked at her pale face, eyes filled with honest tears of fear, and felt deeply sorry for her.
For the first time ever, he felt responsible for what he did to her. Even if she was a monster before, she was now a human being. And he had to really care more about her, until she'd get used to the new life she just started living.
As the couple drew closer from the city, weird things started to appear in front of them. Many masters were walking, or even running, towards the same direction they were heading towards. Slowly they started to walk in the middle of a sea of masters. And this was heaven to Karoline.
She was an open person to talk and get to know others. So in mere hours, she became famous among the many masters here. Even if she looked weak, and many could tell she was just a white grade master, her good nature and easy to approach personality, not to mention her sweet laughs, made everyone fall for her.
William just watched such a circus from the side and didn't take part in any of this. As far as he got from the words said by many, these masters came here thanks to the news of the grand and expected to be an epic battle that soon would erupt.
Seeing them made William feel many emotions. Humans were really pressured for a long time in this world. They suffered from monsters, suffered at the hands of dark masters.
So when a chance appeared, even if it had a very low chance of success, a chance for revenge, they couldn't help but volunteer.
William was shocked to hear more stories and rumours, all speaking about how many masters came from different parts of the continent, how they came from places even from other continents.
"Why do I feel like I'm a magnet for epic stuff?" William couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. Every single time he tried to do something, things would escalate and grow out of his control. He didn't know why, but it seemed his fate was to do great stuff, even if he didn't intend to do anything like this in the first place.
Their marching speed decreased, and this time he didn't have any way to handle such a situation. Even if he tried to get away from the masters around, there were still an endless stream of them blocking any path forward.
It felt like masters were growing happy and proud of such gathering, and started to celebrate. Lots of different food and cuisine was made every now and then, like parties. And for Karoline, this was a real festival, something she wanted to never end.
"Humans are really something!" she said, laughing while holding a big chunk of well cooked and grailed meat in her left hand, "I don't want to see this end!"
"It has to," William rolled his eyes. He didn't mind taking a longer time to go to the city, but he was annoyed that he couldn't forge more grenades in the middle of all this madness.
"Come on, let's have fun!" she suddenly jumped and held his arm with hers, "let's go there, I heard they are going to have a dancing party tonight. Yes, the human world is so fun, hahahaha!"
"..."
William was dragged by her towards a large group of masters whom he didn't know or met before. Yet she seemed to know all of them already.
He had to stick by her side, watching her dancing and enjoying her time as if this was something normal, something she did every day.
