Hearing this, Daton gritted his teeth and shouted, "What the hell are you doing? Be serious."
The man holding the bow was scolded by Daton, but he did not dare to refute; he just felt confused.
It must be known that he is a level 40 hunter, and his arrow is so powerful that it can penetrate a tree trunk more than 30cm thick.
But... he didn't make any mistakes with the arrow just now, everything was perfect, from the speed of the arrow to the direction of the flight.
So why was that young man able to catch his arrow so easily?
"Sorry…" The man bowed his head and apologised to Daton: "I… I just intended to tease him a little."
"Shoot him! Aim for his belly!" Daton said angrily.
The man nodded, then raised his bow again and shot another arrow. This time, he could guarantee that the arrow's trajectory was perfect.
Lathel saw the arrow coming towards him quite slowly, and he thought that perhaps this was the benefit of his reflexes and that his physical strength had increased a lot.
Under the increased gravity intensity of up to 25%, he was able to function normally.
Therefore, in a normal environment, without increased gravity, his strength is completely superior to that of other people.
Lathel threw the arrow in his hand, and the arrow flew at a terrible speed, accurately hitting the arrow that the man had just shot.
BAM!
The two arrows collided and then exploded into countless pieces.
This scene made Daton's group both startled and scared.
The man holding the bow had now determined that it wasn't his first shot that failed, but... Lathel was really strong.
He was so strong that he could use his hand to catch the arrow of a level 40 hunter like him.
"I said be serious, are you kidding me?" Daton shouted with some trepidation.
Although the man holding the bow at this time was scared, he could not give up.
He once again put an arrow in the bow, but this time it was different from before.
As the man drew his bow, he muttered some strange language.
Immediately afterwards, a magic circle appeared in front of the arrow's tip, emitting a somewhat weak blue aura.
Several winds began to gather around the arrow, enveloping it and turning the arrow into an arrow carrying a mini-tornado.
"Tornado Arrow!"
WHOOSH!
The deafening sound of the wind rang out, and the arrow rushed towards Lathel with terrible speed. This speed was even twice as high as the speed of a normal arrow.
Seeing this, Lathel gently reached out and snapped her fingers.
"Anna Flame!"
As soon as he muttered, a stream of flames shaped like a snake appeared, rushing towards the arrow.
Daton's group: "??!!!"
"Using magic without chanting a spell?!"
"What the hell? Did I just see wrongly? That is…"
"Damn it! Stay away, do you want to die?
BAM!
The snake immediately destroyed the man's arrow. Not only that, it rushed towards Daton's group, startling them.
The speed of the fire snake was so fast that it was not inferior to the arrow it had just destroyed, and those people had no time to react.
Another man rushed in front of Daton and took out a large shield to block the fire snake.
BOOM!
As soon as the fire snake collided with the shield, it exploded violently.
Flames covered all four people, smoke and fire rose, making it impossible for Lathel to find where those people were.
"Brat!!" Suddenly, Daton rushed out of the fierce fire. There were countless burn marks on his body, and even more than half of his hair was burned.
Daton held two daggers as he rushed towards Lathel at a very fast speed, but to Lathel, Daton's speed was similar to that of a crawling turtle.
Behind him, the other three men also rushed out of the fire, their expressions extremely fierce as they rushed towards him.
"Kill him!" Daton shouted: "If he doesn't die, we will die!"
Hearing that, the other three naturally used all their last strength to rush towards Lathel.
Just as Daton said, now he and the other three men were in a situation of no return.
They also realised that Lathel was extremely strong and that if they could not kill him, then they would be killed by him.
On the contrary, even if they could kill him, they would still have to pay a huge price.
But at least… if they kill him, then they can live.
Lathel saw the four men rushing towards him, but he still felt quite calm.
He was not worried or afraid.
'It seems… This is the confidence that strength gives me. If I hold absolute power in my hands, I... don't need to fear anyone.'
He waved his hand, and a magic circle appeared in front of him, emitting a dazzling red aura like an eternal flame.
"Charring Field!"
As soon as his words ended, a stream of flame appeared from that magic circle and flew towards Daton and his group.
Seeing this, Daton frowned and shouted: "Hurry up! Stand apart, don't stand too close!"
The group of people understood Daton's intentions. If they stood too close together, they would all receive damage from the attack.
However, as soon as Daton's words ended, the fireball exploded, and nine other fireballs appeared, shooting towards them like meteorites with a diameter of more than 50cm.
Daton looked at the fireballs carrying terrifying temperatures rushing towards him, and a strange thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
If he hadn't caused trouble with Claire, he could still be a gatekeeper for the magic academy right now.
He would arrive in the morning, close at night, go to bars on weekends, sleep with prostitutes, and live a life without having to worry about anything.
If he hadn't had the intention of killing Lathel and Claire, perhaps now... he could continue to live.
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
…
Countless loud explosions rang out; the ground was bombarded by fireballs, and an area of grassland was engulfed in flames.
Lathel looked at this scene and felt a bit uncomfortable. He frowned, waved his hand, and silently ordered Anna: "Anna, take back the fire."
"Heh?! Why? Those people are not dead yet." Anna asked, confused.
"No need, this is enough."
"Lathel, don't be too honest. Being honest is good, but being too honest will endanger your life." Anna said: "If you forgive them, do you think they will be grateful to you? No, they will seek revenge on you."
Lathel nodded: "I know, but… I don't want to kill them. Let's just say… I'll give them a chance to do it again."
He sighed; he knew this action of his was cowardly and stupid, as he was basically putting his own head on the guillotine.
But he is not the main character, he is just an ordinary person. He cannot act like a cold-blooded monster, nor can he kill like an inhuman butcher.
Inside, he still has the mindset of an Earth resident, he still has a bit of weakness that makes him not dare to kill people.
Hearing that, Anna could only do as Lathel said and retract the fire into the magic circle.
The fire disappeared, revealing four men lying on the ground, writhing from burns that caused them extreme pain.
Lathel sighed, then said to Claire: "You can open your eyes now."
Claire slowly opened her eyes, andseeing the scene before her, her face was filled with disbelief.
Even though she heard the sounds going on around her, she could also guess that Lathel had won very easily.
However, when she saw the scene in front of her where a large area of grassland was burned and four men were lying on the ground, writhing with countless burns on their bodies, she was surprised.
Claire looked at Lathel, her eyes now filled with admiration.
"You… you…" Claire stammered. She wanted to question Lathel, but she remembered one thing, and that was that he asked her to close her eyes.
'That's right, maybe he has a secret that he doesn't want me or others to know.'
'Lathel… I won't try to learn your secrets. I... I will listen to you, I will be obedient.'
Claire took a deep breath, smiled, and said: "Lathel, you are really great."
Lathel knew Claire was looking for another topic to avoid having to talk about why he was able to defeat those four men.
He nodded and said: "I am a very normal person. Okay, let's go. By entering this forest, we can get to a safer place."
As soon as Lathel finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the other men. Then he sighed, shook his head, and left.
After entering the forest, and walking about 100 metres, Claire suddenly stopped, bowed her head, and said: "Lathel... I... I want to solve some problems, so... I..."
Lathel glanced at Claire, he knew what she was planning to do, and he sighed inwardly. But he just gently said: "Just don't kill them."
He knew Claire wanted revenge, after all, those people had bullied her for a long time.
However, he didn't want Claire's hands to be dirtied by those disgusting people.
Claire smiled and said: "Uhm! Thank you, Lathel. Wait for me, I'll be back very soon."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left. Lathel found a tree, then sat down to rest.
"You didn't stop her?" Cauldron asked.
Lathel shook her head: "No need. It's good for her to release a little bit of the anger she's been holding in for a long time."
"I don't think she can kill people; at most, she can just beat those men again."
"Besides… They were seriously injured, and they have no ability to resist. To Claire right now, they are nothing more than sandbags in human form."
Lathel finished speaking, looked up at the trees above, and felt a bit tired.
After Daton saw Lathel and Claire leave, he took out a small bottle of medicine, poured it into his hand, and immediately swallowed the entire medicine.
It was a medicine with very high value. However, at this moment, Daton could no longer care about anything; he just wanted to end this pain.
However, the healing medicine was not omnipotent, so it could not immediately cure the wounds on his body.
"It seems… you can no longer resist."
A cold voice rang out. Daton raised his head and saw Claire, who was looking at him like a bloodthirsty monster.
"Lathel was kind enough to let you all live." Claire took out a dagger from her space pocket and held it tightly in her hand: "I also don't want his beautiful hands to be stained with the blood of disgusting people like you."
"I will do this for him, I will protect his kindness."
"You… don't come near me!" Daton shouted, he was extremely frightened, and his body shook violently.
Claire right now was completely different from the Claire he knew. He wanted to run away, but his body was in extreme pain, so he couldn't move much.
"Sorry… I… I'm sorry. I… Uck!"
Before Daton could finish his sentence, the knife was stuck in his shoulder.
Claire coldly said: "I will do the dirtiest work for him, I will protect him, I will not let you taint his kindness."
