Finally Elena and friends were allowed to join the caravan by Rena. Well, even though Rena technically doesn't have the authority to determine whether or not someone can come along, she's already on duty like a tester.
“By the way, is it okay for him to walk?” ask Rena.
“I don't know either, anyway.” Lisa shrugged her shoulders and shook her head. “He is indeed a strange person.”
Lisa, Fint, and Rena were sitting in the back of the wagon. There's also Aya. The cat slept well. Meanwhile, Elena was behind them and traveling on foot, plus she closed her eyes.
“Although strange he's a strong man,” Fint added.
Elena walked a short distance from the caravan. He just casually followed the speed of the caravan in front of him. Not feeling tired and not feeling hot. Can still relax even though wearing a black robe under the hot sun.
'Hmm.. hmm. It should be around here.' Elena muttered in her mind. Using the ability «Personation», he was looking for something. The ability of «Perawangan» itself makes it able to see various places at one time. Originally he didn't need to close his eyes, but this time he did it to increase focus and increase the number of places he opened at a time. 'Ah, meet. So down there, huh? Then ….'
Elena turned — away from the caravan. He finally disappeared after a few minutes.
"What's he doing?" ask Rena.
"The other is just shitting," guess where Lisa came from.
"Do I need to make sure?" ask Fint.
'{I feel a bad feeling, anyway,}' Inner Aya. '{But I'm sure he definitely doesn't want me to interfere.}'
Aya wake. He stood in front of Fint and meowed. "Nyan~" He seemed to signal that the boy should be quiet and do nothing.
"Eh? Wh-what? Did I act wrong?" Fint wondered for himself.
Shortly thereafter….
*boom!*
Explosions sounded along with clouds of dust rising into the sky. The source is from the front of the caravan. Fint, Lisa, and Rena can clearly see the explosion that occurred on the front.
"I-it..," Rena was stunned.
"EzstH!" Rena and Fint shouted at the same time.
Appearing again creatures that are considered a natural disaster in this world — EztEnd. In front of the caravan, the creature had a worm-like form. Its body is long red-brown. It has a disgusting soft texture. Then at both ends of his body — both his tail and head — there are sharp circular teeth around his mouth.
§Kyek!§
The birds along with other animals ran the algal ridges leaving the place. Instantly the caravan guards became alert to see the figure of EztEnd in front of them. They are on standby, only a part of them. Others were frightened to the point of trembling to see the colossal form of EztEnd. Some of them escaped from the scene and took responsibility.
*graduk!* *Grujun!*
Unfortunately, the big worm — EztEnd — dives into the ground. As soon as he appeared again, he grabbed one of them and swallowed him in one stroke. The man was chewed, pierced, by a sharp row of circular thorns.
Fint, Lisa, and Rena gulp down her saliva. The huge creature was getting closer to the three of them. EztEnd chased the people who ran towards the back of the — caravan where the three happened to be there.
"W-What should we do?" asked Fint trembling.
"Fight! That's for sure!" snapped Rena while pulling out a pair of her yoke.
"Against ma-a creature that big? How can we win?" Lisa stammered. All she had in mind was Elena — the girl who could defeat EztEnd alone the other day.
Aya meowed and shook her head. Steady, he went up and jumped down from the flat. "{There is a saying that man is the evolution of apes. Looks like their evolution is not complete.}" He who did not want to get involved in human fights, Aya went to the bushes and hid there.
"Pst, what are you doing here?" a voice sounded softly from behind Aya's ears.
"{Elena!}" shout — in cat language of course. "{This is you, right? You must have been laughing at EztEnd's whereabouts from the beginning and deliberately said that he would go north while at the Association. You did deliberately put them in danger, didn't you?}"
"Woiya, dong," Elena replied flatly, "I don't like carrying loads. If they're under KKM, it's better to just die than to be troublesome."
"{Are you sure?}" ask Aya.
"Exception to the witch."
Rena unhesitatingly advanced towards the giant worm-shaped EztEnd similar in the films. When the worm's mouth pointed at him, he was bountiful to the side. Then he slashed the body of the worm using both kukri on each hand.
Be loud!
Although the body of the worm looks soft, but in fact harder than Rena's estimate. His weapon was unable to penetrate the worm's body.
And when the tip of the worm's body reaches him — the head on the other side — itself must be slashed by the sharp teeth around the mouth of the creature. Not a fatal wound, but the attack required a wound on his right hand.
"Damn it, is there nothing I can do?" He whimpers. His teeth were grinding because he kept his mouth shut.
That's when Rena got help. Other caravan guards helped in the fight. Not until all of them, but only some have consciousness. Archers fired arrows, sword users booed and became bait, and some others threw whatever weapons were in their hands. It doesn't matter if it's valuable or not.
§Kick!§
But free. EztEnd preys one by one bait. The sword user who injured the creature's body gained the futility to pierce the creature's hard skin. Some of the injuries that were successfully made were only minor scratches.
*Gruuk!* *Grujun!*
He dived into the ground. Suddenly everyone there was silent. They're frightened. Cold sweat mixed with their hot sweat. This was a nightmare and one of them could have been ambushed and had his death instantly. More instant than instant noodles. Each of them kept their distance from the other.
Lisa uses her «Printing» ability. He noticed the movement of creatures in the ground. "Copy! Watch out!" He jumped onto Fint and pushed the boy's body along with him. They both fell. But their life streaks did not drift because of the creature that just appeared where Fint stood.
§Kyek!§ §Kyik!§
It looked at Lisa and Fint. Half his body emerged from the ground, rose upwards, and turned his mouth on the two of them. The creature darted and would eat them both. But before that….
*glash!*
A slash hit the body of the creature and gave a deep wound.
§Kick!§ Disturbing voice from him is heard. This time it was as if he was screaming in pain.
Directly, the creature entered back into the ground pulled by his other head. He disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Elena!" scream Lisa. "Where have you been?"
Elena stood there, complete with a wakizashi in her right hand and Aya perched on her left shoulder. He calmly said, "Sorry, I just shitting." He added, "I'm glad I'm on time. You guys are so pathetic."
"Revelation!" The ability of «Speek» Lisa is still active and she knows the movement of the creature in the ground. From his vision, he knew the creature was now moving trying to ambush Elena.
"He's after me, isn't he? Just relax." Elena jumped a few meters from her spot. Right after that the head of the EztEnd worm appeared. He shivered the empty air that Elena had previously been there. "Some beasts are vengeful creatures!"
*glash!*
One slash. Elena cut the creature's body in two. One part rose into the sky and fell on the ground surface and the other one was still digging underground.
§Gu!§
The part above the ground was shouting furiously mixed with pain. He thoughtlessly rushed at Elena. His mouth was wide open with teeth around him, his mouth neatly lined.
Elena was calm. He holds the wakizashi in a vertical position. One hand on the handle and the other wakizashi body on the back — blunt parts. By the time the creature arrived, he slightly jumped to the side so that the sharp end of his wakizash slashed the creature's body neatly.
*sret!*
The creature was discovered by wakizashi Elena. His body was spilled and scattered.
Next Elena held the wakizashi vertically. Both hands held the wakizashi grip. After that, he jumped back the next step or two.
*Gruuk!*
The other body part of the creature came from the ground. He was intending to snatch Elena. Elena, who had predicted this, actually made her dissect her own body with Elena's wakizashi. Just like the other part, his body was scattered.
"Done." Elena swings wakizashi — cleans the blood attached to her blade — then inserts the weapon. He turned around with the rest of the caravan still healthy wal afiat. "It's good that at least there are survivors" he said coldly.
"{Are you a psychopath?}"
