I'M A Villains In My Second Life
Chapter 122

Leathina could not stay any longer in Denisa's place, she had to return to the kingdom before the party began to carry out her plan to avenge Yasmine's actions. He drove his horse out of the village and over the border then continued his journey until the sun began to set and then turned completely dark.

“It looks like I have to find lodging in the next village before the fog covers the streets.” Leathina muttered after feeling the cold and faintly saw the mist in the air.

When he saw from a distance the village lights that he was about to pass next, Leathina slowed down his path he felt some presence of people who seemed to be watching him from a short distance away.

Leathina prepared herself, under her cloak she had firmly grasped the hilt of her sword ready to pull it whenever someone attacked her. His vigilance he increased to predict where they would attack from.

“Syutt!”

“Clang.”

An arrow flew towards Leathina's head and Leathina nimbly pulled out her sword then cut the arrow shot towards it.

“Bandits!” leathina murmured when she saw about five people coming out of hiding to show themselves.

Each of them carried various types of weapons such as celurit, sword, spear, axe and not least the arrow that was fired at him.

“Padahan before leaving I hope my trip will be smooth.” Leathina muttered with a long sigh and jumped down from her horse.

“You are quite skilled in evading Miss.” One of them spoke while showing his weapon to Leathina.

“It would be great if I didn't have to expend the energy to fight against all of them.”

“So why did you guys intercept me?” Leathina asked the bandits who were blocking her way.

“Of course to rob you.” They answered almost simultaneously then laughed mockingly at Leathina.

“I actually have no intention of fighting with kali..”.

“Srek.”

Leathina had not yet finished her speech a landing strike and tore off the tip of her robe for dodging in time if Leathina had not dodged at the exact time her right leg had been severed.

“Hahahah.” Their laughter filled Leathina's ears that still saw the tear of her cloak being cut off, and they all looked down on Leathina even more.

“Jeez, so funny. How dare an adventurous woman alone without a guard you should be home alone and rubbing the potty back Miss.”

“Exploitation!” leathina muttered as the tear of her robe turned out to be quite severe.

“What now you're not..

“Srek”

“Serk”

“ARGHHH!”

Leathina slashed at the foot of one of the bandits standing in front of her with her sword then quickly picked up the celurit that was dropped for enduring the pain of Leathina's slash then flung the whistle that was on her back hitting one of the bandits again until only three bandits are still standing firm.

“Badness!” shouted one of the bandits who was still standing then threw his spear towards Leathina.

“Srek”

“ARGHH”

Before he threw his spear Leathina had already thrown her sword towards the spear holder until it pierced his left abdomen.

“Argh!”

one of the arrows shot and stuck in Leathina's back somehow since when one of the bandits had been behind Leathina.

“Because of you!” he cried while smiling with excitement because one of his arrows finally managed to hit Leathina.

Leathina immediately took back her sword and the spear that was almost thrown at her then targeted her at the arrow holder and immediately threw it to the back of the archer's hand.

“Arghh! Damn, my hand!” He shouted while trying to endure the pain in his hand and tried to release the spear that was still stuck in the back of his hand until it pierced his palm.

“Leathina swung her sword at the fifth bandit who was still separated but the fifth bandit she saw was now terrified and willingly threw away her weapon all the way and then knelt in front of Leathina pleading so that his neck will not be slit with his sword.

Leathina did not attack the one who had given up losing she then saw the situation of the bandits who were now grimacing in pain withstanding the pain of Leathina's attack. He himself just felt the pain that radiated from his back to his entire body because of the arrow that is still stuck in his back.

“Ahk! Although not deep but still hurts.” Leathina whimpered in pain as she pulled out the arrow that was still stuck in her back then immediately healed herself with her magic.

“Cheal magic!” shouted one of the bandits when he saw Leathina healing herself.

“Cure me too Miss, this really hurts!” one of the bandits crawled towards Leathina.

“I too, I beg Miss Wanderer!”

“I'm sorry Miss, please treat me too!” Excite those who were injured while holding back the constellation of pain due to the wounds that were on his body.

“You will not die at most your feet will break.” Leathina crouched down while watching the wounds on the legs caused by her.

“You won't die either, but you won't be able to use your hands in some time.” Leathina muttered again pretending to be serious when she saw the hand that had been thrown with a spear.

“Well, this one will probably die in a few hours again because his stomach is bleeding.” Leathina muttered while turning to look at the state of the next bandit.

“Gosh I forgot.” Said Leathina as if forgetting something important and patting her head.

“I have to go to the village immediately to find lodging, maybe I can get lodging yes it is already midnight. Though I have to rest because I will travel far.” Leathina muttered as she turned and walked towards her horse ignoring the bandits who were still groaning in pain from being injured.

“No-Nona.” Said one of the youngest-looking bandits among the other bandits as well as the last bandit who had immediately knelt down giving up on Leathina.

He pulled the end of Leathina's robe as Leatina was about to board her horse and bring Leathina to a standstill.

“What? You still want to rob!” leathina asked her sarcasm.

He shook his head quickly answering Leathina's question.

“Nona I beg you forgive us.” He spoke as he knelt down in front of Leathina.

“The person whose leg was broken was my father, the person whose hand was stuck in a spear was my brother, the person whose stomach was injured by celurit was a pama.”.

“Wait, wait a minute! So you mean you're a family?” Leathina asked in disbelief but the person kneeling in front of her nodded to confirm Leathina's question.

“Miss I beg to heal them with your ability, I-I know that what we did to miss is wrong and unjustified.”

“That's you know, so I have no reason to heal them even if they are your family.”

“Ta-but Miss, at home there are only women left if, if we do not return then they will have no one to guard.” Said hesitating.

“I also have family at home if they find that I died robbed you they will also be sad.”

“Nona it is true that we are forest bandits and our job is to rob but we really have no intention to hurt the miss at the beginning. We just want to scare Miss and snatch the precious thing that miss just brought so far you have never killed anyone.” Shouted the bandits whose injured hands explained to Leathina the true state.

"Not kill anything! You obviously were intent on killing me. Leathina's words were indifferent and intended to leave immediately.

“Argh!” screams of bandits whose legs were injured who were also their fathers.

“Uncle! Uncle! Aware!” shouted the bandit whose hand was injured upon seeing his uncle whose stomach was injured had now shed a lot of blood and started to lose his consciousness.

“I have no reason to sympathize with them, however their work is still a robber. Uh, but wasn't I a thief?” Inner Leathina considered the action she was afraid that if it had healed them later would even be attacked again.

“We will show you a safe stay! Didn't miss say she was looking for the right lodging?” asked the bandit who was now no longer prostrating but was still kneeling in front of Leathina. His eel looks reddish as it hit his head to the ground while prostrating.

Leathina did not pacify him and glared at him with furrowed brows as she placed suspicion on them.

“We, we, will guarantee the safety of Miss if Miss still does not believe.” His speech was then timid as he saw Leathina's incredulous look.

“We will also provide decent food and bedding for miss.” He said again and still hoped for Leathina.

“Argh!

“My hands, my hands!” shouted one of the bandits while gripping his injured hand the pain began to spread to his arm and to his entire body as it endured the pain.

“I BEG MISS! PLEASE HEAL MY FAMILY! IF, IF MISS IS RIGHTEOUS INSTEAD MISS CAN TAKE ME AS A SLAVE!!!

He saw his other brother and family and increasingly screamed in pain and ended up pleading and offering himself.

“DAMIAN!”  his father's screams stop his son from offering himself as a slave.

“I beg Miss!” he said again, pleading and not caring about his father, who tried to stop him.

“Ah, this family drama is troublesome!” chirped Leathina suddenly because her ears hurt hearing everyone yelling at her.

“Nona.” Said the bandit heartily to Leathina and was still kneeling in front of Leathina.

“Alright! Alright!” Responded Leathina who finally resigned because she could not bear to see the bandit who continued to kneel in front of her, her feelings were melted when she saw it and began to feel kasian to her.

“But you have to take responsibility for what you said!” Said Leathina with a warning before treating the injured bandits.

Leathina asked the bandit whose name was mentioned with Demian to hold her horse while she herself immediately went to the bandit who lost a lot of blood first because it was the worst and was now semi-conscious slowly Leathina's healing magic green aura covered her wound and slowly the broken skin regenerated and closed back.

Next his father was injured in the leg, then his brother who had been stabbed with a spear and still stuck in his hand.

“Argh!” She shrieked as Leathina pulled out the spear that stuck in her hand then immediately healed her hand back.

Upon completion Leathina then turned to the other bandits who were also injured.

“My uncle, will he be okay?” asked the bandit whose hand had been injured when he saw his uncle was unconscious.

“Quiet, she's fine. Your uncle just fell asleep because he lost a lot of blood.” Leathina answered and then returned to her horse, which Demian was still guarding.

“So now show me the inn you meant earlier?” Leathina asked Demina.

“No-Nona.” Call someone.

When Leathina turned around she saw the bandits she had healed now standing unless the one who had been unconscious she was carried on her friend's back.

“What's up? Are you guys coming with us? Take it easy your son will not take me run and I made a slave I just asked him to show me lodging.”

“We want to apologize and thank.” Said the person who had been appointed by Demian and claimed that he was his father representing the other bandits speaking.

“Good.” Leathina answered briefly because she was in a hurry to get some rest because she would continue her journey again tomorrow.

“Come Demian, show me the way.”

“Wait a minute Miss, we will take our horse hidden in the forest.” Demian replied then immediately ran into the forest followed by the other bandits.

“We? Will they all drive me or will they all leave me alone here.” Leathina murmured in a clueless manner as she watched all the bandits enter the forest.

“Looks like I was left here, I was the fool to stick to them.” Leathina muttered again after almost half an hour of waiting but the bandits did not return.

Leathina finally decided to continue her journey back to the next village and look for lodging there.

“Nona! Miss!” Demian shouted after Leathina and tried to stop Leathina who was riding her horse very quickly.

“Demina, she caught up with me?” Leathina's inner voice upon hearing Demian's voice shouted at her from behind and immediately slowed her down so that Demian could catch up with her.

“Nona, Wait a minute.” Call Demian again after catching up with Leathina and desperately try to catch her breath again due to fatigue balancing the pace of her horse with Leathina.

“What's Demian?” Laeathina asked as Demian was beside her.

“Nona forgive me for being late please follow me.” Demian said then directly ahead of Leathina to show the way.

“Lea, call me Lea.” Said Leathina suddenly because she felt uncomfortable to continue to be with Miss on her journey.

“Sorry?” Demian did not understand.

“Call me Lea. Lea is my name you can call me with that.” Leathina replied explaining to Demian.

“Oh, I'm sorry Miss Lea. I haven't introduced my name either.” Demian said politely.

“Include my name is Demian. I am a descendant of bandits who hide and live in the forest and our work is only done since our ancestors.”

“So this is a hereditary job?” Tanya Leathina then.

“Iya Miss Lea, we can't find another job because our family status is very low.”

“So Where are the others Demian?” Leathina asked after realizing that only Demian was following her while the others were nowhere to be seen.

“They came back first to prepare everything Miss.” Demian answered and focused on showing the way to Leathina.

“Prepare everything? are you guys preparing a trap for me Demian?” Leathina asked again not understanding and suspecting Demian but still followed after him as Demian walked towards the village.

“Of course not Miss how could we trap a person who has been kind enough to forgive us and even treat us who have done evil to Miss.”

“Alright I'm relieved to hear it.” “It's already midnight, it will be difficult to find lodging at this hour should I just have to trust this child.” Leathina finally chose to keep up with Demian.

Demian walked towards the village and turned into the forest as he was about to approach the countryside and continued walking in the darkness of the night. Although there was no light at all that illuminated Demian's path, it seemed to have no trouble entering the forest and memorizing the path properly. a few minutes later they both saw a housing with lights shining from inside the houses he saw.

Demian extended his horse through a fence made of wood whose tip was deliberately sharpened like to drive wild animals through the fence, then closed again by Demian's brother after they both entered it.

Several women and girls and the men who had tried to rob Leathina stood outside the house to welcome her, and even their now-conscious uncle stood outside to greet Leathina pale face and smeared by a woman because of the loss of a lot of blood.

“Welcome Miss, thank you for saving my husband.” Welcome a woman after Leathina got off her horse.

Leathina glanced at Demian who was standing next to her in bewilderment at the situation before her.

“So the inn you are referring to is your own home.” Leathina's whisper to Demian.

“Ah, this is the place that pops up in my brain when I hear Miss looking for a.” Demian replied with a sigh and scratched his non-itchy head.

“And who is this woman in front of me?” Leathina asked again when she saw a woman standing in front of her with a big smile for her.

“Oh, that's my mom and that girl nearby that's my sister. Women who memapah my uncle is his wife they both just married so have no children.” Demina answered and explained her family structure to Leathina.
