BXBX NOVEL Chapter 112 Heads
"What sound is that?"
"It\'s definitely a monster. Is there anything else in the dungeon?"
Aditya was getting pale. It wasn\'t because they were afraid to face whatever they were going to fight, but from watching the homunculus children who put on innocent faces. They really didn\'t understand the current situation.
This worried Aditya, as well as the other two hunters. Only Isaac still looked normal.
"What should we do, Instructor Isaac?" Aditya asked in a low tone.
"Of course, we\'ll face those things."
"What about them?" Aditya glanced at the homunculus children. "Should we take them? It\'s too dangerous to take children to face the monsters."
"Our only way out is that way. Do we have any other options?"
Aditya couldn\'t believe hearing this. Even more so after seeing that there was no doubt on Isaac\'s face.
"What if they get impacted by the fight? This rescue will be in vain."
"Right," said another member. "We don\'t know how powerful the monsters at the front are."
Isaac sighed. "I didn\'t say I would engage them in battle. One of you will look after the children; hide during the fight and sneak out immediately if you get a chance."
After hearing Isaac\'s explanation, they looked relieved.
This situation was enough to make Isaac wonder. A few hours ago, they were quite disturbed by the existence of Aman, who was a homunculus. Now they were panicking for fear that these homunculus children would get hurt.
No matter how long Isaac had known humans, there were still many things he didn\'t understand about them.
"You guys panicked so much that you couldn\'t think straight. Try to stay calm in every situation."
They nodded simultaneously.
"Aditya will take care of the children. The rest come with me to fight."
After that, they all quickly moved.
Every step closer to the source of the sound, a feeling of dread welled up in the hunters\' chests. The tension was getting more and more visible on their faces, especially Aditya.
They arrived at the main lab hallway.
A monster with three beast heads was seen slaughtering five members of the Golden Dragon. The creature had the head of a lion and a goat. Its tail was in the form of a snake\'s head, while its body had scales like a crocodile. It had a pair of wings spreading about three meters long like an eagle.
One of the hunters who faced the monster was seen kneeling in terror. His face darkened in sorrow after witnessing his three comrades being chewed alive by the monster lion\'s head. Meanwhile, one of the remaining comrades tried to escape from the place, but the snake\'s head quickly devoured half of his body.
The hunters by Isaac\'s side had pale faces. The five members of the Golden Dragon were A-rank hunters. They had high experience and combat hours. At least three of them were enough to deal with the Alpha.
Of course, this gave immense terror to hunters with ranks below them.
"Ins… Instructor Isaac… shall we stick to the plan?" Aditya asked in a trembling voice. He couldn\'t hide his fear.
"Yes."
It was a short and clear answer. There was no tinge of doubt or fear. Aditya glanced at Isaac. The man looked grinning.
What was this man thinking?
Those were the words spoken in Aditya\'s mind now. The others also thought the same thing.
There were only two people who would smile when they saw death in front of them. Crazy people or people who had ever felt the death itself.
Without a word, Isaac suddenly shot towards the monster. There was no hesitation in his eyes at all.
The monster noticed Isaac\'s presence. The lion\'s head quickly roared, vibrating the air and the surrounding objects. A Golden Dragon hunter who was close to the monster died instantly after his ears and eyes bled.
Aditya and two other hunters were also affected. One of Aditya\'s ears became deaf and bleeding. However, he ignored it and preferred to hug the homunculus children. Those homunculus looked scared.
"Nice roar."
Meanwhile, Isaac looked fine. He managed to get close to the monster, then slashed it without the slightest hesitation. He swung his sword many times.
Slash! Slash! Slash!
He was about to cut off the goat\'s head, but the monster quickly covered itself.
Splat!
Blood splattered on the floor. His slash only managed to injure the wings. However, the wound quickly closed within seconds.
Isaac narrowed his eyes.
Then, the snake\'s head quickly aimed for Isaac. He quickly dodged it. However, the monster didn\'t let him go. It ran after Isaac. The lion\'s head of the monster looked furious.
GGRAAAAAWRRRRR!
Sash! Sash! Sharp claws repeatedly aimed at Isaac\'s neck, but none of them managed to touch him.
The snake head was also aiming for Isaac\'s life. It pounced on him quickly.
Isaac certainly didn\'t stand still. Every time the opportunity was wide open, he launched an attack. And every attack that landed on the monsters managed to inflict a wound, but it healed quickly.
On the other hand, the Nine Sky members who watched Isaac\'s struggle to fight the monster were seen biting their lips. They were still in complete shock after seeing how the five rank A of the Golden Dragon members were wiped out so easily.
Just as they felt anxious and confused whether they should help or not, Aman unexpectedly jumped into battle.
"Hey! What are you doing!?" Aditya exclaimed.
The little blue-haired girl didn\'t care. Her attention was only on the front; on a monster that seeked to harm her master.
The monster knew of Aman\'s arrival but wasn\'t prepared to accept her attack. The little girl punched the lion\'s head until it sank to the floor.
BAM!
The hunters who watched were astonished. Aman\'s power was beyond their imagination.
"Woh!?"
That brief incident was enough to embarrass them. A little girl without a doubt jumped into death, while they could only stand and did nothing. Their pride as hunters was tarnished.
At the same time, their fighting instincts rose.
"Adit, we will stick to the plan. We will try to divert them. You bring these homunculus children out."
Aditya turned to his two colleagues. He looked at them with a serious look.
"Yes, do your best," Aditya replied.
"You too. Make sure they get to the camp safely."
"Be careful, Adit," said another colleague.
Aditya nodded. After that, he and the homunculus children quickly slipped out.
Meanwhile, the other two members of Nine Sky quickly joined the battle.
"Finally, you guys came. I\'ve been waiting a long time," said Isaac.
"Sorry, I am late. We\'re a bit of a coward. It takes time to prepare ourselves," one of them replied.
Isaac sighed. At least his men were telling the truth and not making excuses. So, he wouldn\'t be so mad at them.
"Then, I hope you guys have prepared yourself."
The monster rose. The wounds that adorned the lion\'s head slowly closed; recovered by itself. Its eyes looked fiery. A new battle would begin.
