I saw her prepping for another attack and then sigh a little before increasing my speed and dashing towards her this time. While I can't run away from her, surprisingly I am able to dodge her attacks.
-Boom
I jumped at her at full speed and… what?!... she immediately cancelled her attack and then proceeded to dodge me, rather than attacking me head on. As soon as I reach closer to her, I find her completely vanished from there before appearing right behind me. Since she wasn't that far, it was easy for me to sense her.
-Boom
I jumped sideways to take a closer look at her as she almost reached my head and I barely dodged her and then I swiftly moved behind her before…
-BOOOM!!!
I kicked her with all my might and unsurprisingly… my attack connects, pushing her all the way away. A jittery grin forms on my face as I proceed to jump high up in the sky with all my might.
-BOOOM!!!
Though the impact created a loud sound grabbing the attention of that angel down there, I removed myself from her sight as she vanished from her original place appearing a few hundred metres to the left of where she was, as she frantically tried to search around her.
'Well… that clears things up,' I thought as I looked at her teleporting again as she searched for me on the ground.
Yeah, she had a teleportation ability, a high ranged one at that. No wonder she could reach me despite me running at such a rapid speed. My eyes then reached the boy, who was still looking at me with a surprised and shocked expression on his face.
A smile forms on my face as I then begin to fall down due to gravity. I project myself in her direction. She was carefully observing everything around her, trying to assess the situation and after searching everything around, she finally looked at the sky… only to find my handsome face smirking at her.
-BOOM!!!!
I punched as hard as I could, but missed her as she teleported just before the impact. This time, however, I just stood there and put the boy down slowly as I observed that Angel at a distance standing still, hesitating to come closer. I take my half torned shirt off, since it was more than just tattered, then using my space ring, I take out a battle gear white shirt that won't be torn before wearing it.
-Click
-Click
-Click
I cracked my fingers, my neck and relaxed a little as I stretched, while the boy and that Angel were wondering what I was doing. The boy was kind of amazed at everything I was doing,
-Whoosh
The mechanical Angel appeared right in front of me, as she tried to take the boy, however… before she could actually touch the kid…
-BOOOM!!!
I kicked her again with quite a force. I saw her suit cracking into pieces as she fell far, far away.
Yawning at the situation, I then took out a rope like object which was a bit wider than a normal rope and used it to tie the boy to myself. First, I asked him to tighten himself around me in a comfortable situation, which he did as he got on my back, and then I used that rope.
At last, we looked at the area where the Angel was sent flying. While I was focused on that Angel, all this time, I saw that the child wasn't worried about it anymore and contrasting to the previous scared and horrified expression; he had a relieved smile on his face with a tinge of excitement hidden behind that smile.
A slight smile forms on my face as I focus on the front and…
-Dash
Reach towards that place in a matter of seconds and observe the destruction caused by my attack and the first thing I did was… take out a cloth and cover that kid's eyes… after all, the mechanical Angel was all… naked from top with only her suit remaining below, which too was breaking apart slowly.
I then jump towards her, making her glare at me with half scared, half furious eyes as she tries to stand up. I then sigh before I ignore her glare and then move towards her and throw a binding cloth at her.
I don't know whether it will work or not, but since there is an abundance of spirit magic in this place, I could possibly use this spirit plus blood mana mode of mine for another day or so, without really getting tired at all.
That white cloth binds her, covering her upper body, but I observe that she isn't really worried about her binding, as if it didn't affect her at all. She must have already found a way out of that cloth… though why is she still here? Is it something like she can't teleport without using her suit? Or…
My eyes then turned to the boy who was behind me.
'Now, isn't this interesting…' I thought before observing that the sky is beginning to turn darker, and I couldn't help but consider whether I should interrogate this Angel simultaneously dealing with the dangers of the night, or should I just kill her to be safe.
"The wolves… are coming… Are you sure you should be worrying about me?" She spoke as she freed herself from the bind as her body began to heal at a rapid pace and then the mechanical suit which she had, breaks down, revealing a stark flawless body of her. Her pure grey hair, previously not visible because of the mechanical suit became visible, gave a strange sense of beauty to her.
She then takes out a strange device from the broken pile of machines. However, I sensed no danger from it, so I kept observing her. She takes out a set of clothes, which she wore right in front of me without showing any ounce of shame.
'By human standards, she should be around 23 years…' I thought as I looked at her before I saw that the sun was almost down and an eerie atmosphere had developed around us.
"Markeusnap aoiefale ansuaohe…." the boy began speaking in a strange language which made me feel confused, because I have never heard that language before. However, the mechanical Angel, who kind of understood my confusion, smirked a little before getting surprised and confused, and looked at me with a dumbfounded expression.
"You… you were saving someone you didn't even know how to talk to? Are you… broken up there?" she asked without hiding anything.
"Aren't you getting too free in front of me? You don't think I can kill you without any hesitation? Or do you think of me being a kid? I can't kill you or something?" I ask with slight irritation, wondering if people think that I am that approachable. Even Cristine acts like she has known me for ages, despite not knowing me at all…
Though, she made a slightly odd expression before narrowing her eyes at me and asking,"you… aren't from here, are you?"
Her question made me realise that there was something about this situation that I misread. I then try sensing things around, only to get my senses blocked again with that dense mana. I sigh before answering her question.
"I come from a faraway land in search of something…. Wait, a sec?! How can you talk to me without any language barrier… do you ha-"
Rather than answering my question, she looked around with a deep gaze as she spoke in a hushed sound,"They are here."
At her words, I too got alert and sensed around as all three of us turned silent. The boy slowly took off the cloth from his eyes and then looked around without even caring about that Angel.
'So.. this situation… is something where people erase their preexisting feud and focus on them… the wolves… or perhaps the monsters,' I thought as I saw the eyes… a pair of eyes… then another pair.. A few more… it turned into 10s… then I stopped counting as I found them all around us surrounding us.
"Compare them with that red cat monster that you killed before," I spoke and she looked at me with a slightly complicated face before speaking,"there is no genuine comparison. Individually, there is a difference between that of a small cub and that of a highly experienced and ferocious lion."
Understanding her words, I understood that the monsters in front were at least… S grade each… however they did not have that aura of intelligence around them so it… was… fine?...
As I was thinking and analysing, I saw some even stronger ones appear… and I chuckled a little before labelling them at SS-Grade.
Individually, I could fight with one S-grade monster at a time… but with this many and the addition of these SS-grade looking monsters…
'Aren't I kind of f*cked up?' I thought as I looked at those monsters, trying to find out the best possible solution out of here.
