chapter-233
"There's a tiger not far away. It's from the Second Order," Luan warned.
Ingrid held her scythe. She knew now that her strength was quite high and tried to use X strength so as not to cause too much damage.
'I should pierce his head, no, I should cut horizontally... Wait, if I use my weapon from the bottom up, it will slash the throat and go up and it won't affect the ground too much and I'll have a better idea of how much strength to use…' After thinking quickly, Ingrid decided.
The tiger leapt towards her. Ingrid dragged the back of the scythe on the ground as she went forward and when she got right below the tiger's throat, she pulled up. * Bang!*
Along with the sound of flesh tearing and blood flowing, the bones in the throat broke and the skull split in half. The speed was so fast that not only did it pull the tiger from above but it divided the tiger's head in two.*Thud!*
"That's not what I thought would happen!" Ingrid screamed in frustration. In her mind, the tiger would be skewered and lifted, she would spin back to the ground, and then she would slam the carcase into the ground. But get this: the head was split in half and she didn't even have a chance to do what she wanted to do!
Luan couldn't help but laugh. He said as he chuckled, "Ingrid, your weapon is also in the Fourth Order. Even if you use less force, it's still going to be strong, so it's going to be hard to just cut the tiger's throat."
"Oh, there was that. As I'm dumb, I totally forgot about that…" Ingrid pouted with annoyance, feeling like a fool.
"You're new at this, and you're not used to making common mistakes. That does not mean you're stupid, but if your errors persist... Yeesh, I cannot comfort you," Luan said as he rubbed her head.
"I see... I'm not going to make the same mistake, but then how do I do it if I don't want to slice up my enemy but rather jab it with the tip of my scythe?" Ingrid asked.
"That's easy. At the tip of the spear, put some blood, and then make the blood web and stick where you want. Then just do what you want," Luan responded immediately."Oh, that I can do." Ingrid felt like she was lit up.
"Hey, that tiger was ours!" Two guys appeared.
Luan felt their presence but didn't speak. He wanted Ingrid to sharpen her senses, and now that she'd been taken by surprise, she might get smarter next time.
"I was the one who killed it," Ingrid said without giving in.
"But we've been hunting this tiger for two days, it's ours!" One of the young men said frustrated. The two were not human, or at least not the human equivalent on earth - they had cat's tails and ears.
"I have a question for you," Luan spoke.
The young man noticed Luan's presence and looked for two seconds and said, "What?."
"If you've been in love with a girl for 14 years but she always rejects you, but suddenly a cute guy shows up and she dates him, would you fight him for stealing her because you loved her for 14 years?" Luan asked.
The young man started to cry. With his hands rubbing his eyes he said, "Alice chose him. I can't change her feelings for me. Of course, I didn't fight with Abdiel even though I hate him."
"Oh, so something like that had happened to you." Luan was calm despite everything and smiled. "But in this case, you who chased the tiger for 2 days but it was found and killed by us, do you still think you have a right to him?"
"I, I..." The boy was confused.
"Are you from a clan? You don't seem to be." Luan continued the questions
"I'm from Clan Heavy Paw. It's a powerful Clan in the Earth Empire." The young man stopped crying and spoke proudly.
"But it's not number 1, yes?" Luan continued.
"That... No, I think if I were to quantify it, it would be in the top 100 at least. We're not weak!" He yelled like he wanted to prove something.
"I see, you are very prestigious to be in such a clan then," Luan said with a sly little smile.
"That is true." The young man nodded.
"By the way, I'm Luan," Luan said.
"Err, my name is Nathan, and this one next to me is Maciel. Hey, uh, sorry for the confusion; I kind of got frustrated. Actually, you're right. You guys killed it; it doesn't matter if we hunted it for days or not," Nathan, who seemed to like Luan, said.
"Well, rest assured, I don't care. After all, I was able to make friends with a good person," Luan said.
"Haha. Yes, I am a great man. It's Alice who is silly…" He was sad again.
"By the way, there are still people in the Fourth Order around here, yes?I heard there were plenty," Luan lied.
"Of course not! We are close to only small towns. Why would beings of the Fourth Order be here? That information is false! In fact, most beings of the Fourth Order are in the Five Great Empires. Only there will you be able to meet them," Nathan said.
"Nice to know that. I knew it was false information. Why would anyone from the Fourth Order be here, anyhow? Anyway, thank you, I'm glad I made friends with you," Luan smiled.
"Haha, same, same. I'm in a hurry now, I'm leaving. Hope to see you again, good friend." Nathan pulled Maciel and started to leave.
"Nathan, you talk too much…" Maciel muttered as they left.
"Well, I got a lot of useful information." Luan smiled at Ingrid, who was silent.
"Why do I feel like you changed characters just now?" Ingrid was clearly confused.
"Of course it was to make them let their guard down and give me the necessary information. If not, they wouldn't have even given their names," Luan explained.
"So say he was prestigious etc," Ingrid asked, uncertain.
"All fake, of course," Luan laughed.
"..."
"Okay, I better not even think about it for my mental health." Ingrid sighed.
