The Strongest Hybrid
CH 31:Guests Not Invited
"what's up Mathius?" ask Shella.
"i sensed that some people were heading here" I replied.
Then a soldier came to Mathius' tent,
"hey! wake up someone is coming."
"what? is anyone coming? who?" ask Shella.
"well, but I feel bad things are coming to us" said the soldier.
"well, I'll be ready, too" I said.
The journey is still very far and we have got problems that can be said to be very big. I'd be willing if only the treasure was taken, what I didn't want was if the life of the person who was with me was taken.
I myself am not worried about myself, because those bandits will not be able to kill me.
Many traps belonging to Shella that hit the enemy, Shella went straight up to the tree near the tent and saw 30 people around the tent. Shella was very confident in the amount he set, because he had an active skill called Hawk Eye that was capable of all the number of people around the area occupied.
If the number is that much, it feels like there will definitely be casualties among us, we only total 12 people, 8 of whom are mercenaries, he said, 2 Of them were horsemen and 2 were me and Shela, but with the preparation we were ready to fight them.
The bandits were beginning to be seen, and a woman darted and attacked me, with reflexes, I was able to avoid her, she was surprised when she realized that her attack did not hit me,
...****************...
"what?" then the woman took a safe distance with Mathius.
Hahaha, you may as well turn out." he said.
"Who are you, huh?" shouted mercenary A(leader of the army).
"We are the Devil Hound, the ruler of Watu Forest (the name of the forest that passes through Mathius), it is a big mistake to spend the night in this forest" said the bandit leader.
"Hehh, Devil Hound? what the hell?" Mathius.
"Mathius, don't you know ha? they are the bandits who rule this forest" said Shella.
"Oh, I see.Hey you guys! Why is a woman your leader?" mathius asked the bandits.
"Fuck, don't underestimate me!" shouted the bandit leader woman.
"no no, I don't underestimate you, I just ask why a woman becomes a leader? If, as the saying goes, if a pack of lions were led by a dog, the lion would be as stupid as the dog, but if the pack of dogs were led by a lion, it would be as stupid as the lion, then the dog will try to be as strong as its leader" Mathius said.
"Whisper you blind man!" shouted the bandit leader woman.
"Hahaha, you're very easy to provoke" Mathius said.
"Be careful, Mathius. From the stories I've heard, they're very dangerous" Shella whispered to Mathius.
"Don't talk much. Like today my mood is good, just give up your treasures, then I forgive your lives," said the bandit leader.
"Well, please take all our possessions, please" said horseman 1.
...****************...
The horseman 1 answered him without hesitation, he made Mathius suspicious of him.
...****************...
This person, did not feel any fear at all when the bandits came here. I feel a little strange. Is he a traitor? but I can't decide right away.
"Hey! , just make your decision!" shella said to the horseman 1.
"It's better than us losing our lives" said horseman 1.
"if that's true, too, but.." said Shella,
"wait, Shella. I think there's a traitor among us, the strongest candidate is him (Kusir kuda 1)watch out," I told Shella.
"alright, Mathius." replied Shella.
"We will not give up our treasure, but if you still want treasure, then step over my corpse first" I told the bandits.
"You're a brat too. Everybody finish them!" said the female bandit leader, and the bandits attacked us.
The fight was not spared, we only numbered 12 people against 30 people, but the strength of the mercenaries who were hired to pick me up was quite good too, they are able to compete with those who amounted to more than 2 times our number.
I also helped, but for a while I did not take out my weapons and used a sword against them, I said,
Shella as the leader of the group immediately faced the bandit leader.They both fought very fierce, because their skills were the same as Silent Assassin, but the experience of the bandit leader was more than Shella, but the experience of the bandit leader was more, and I think that Shella will only be able to survive, she can't possibly beat the bandit leader.
But the thing that is strong evidence that horseman 1 is a traitor happened is that he did not participate in the fight, he felt like it was safe just without caring about us.
Shella crashed while fighting against the bandit leader, I came to her, too,
"are you okay, Shella?"
"yes, I'm still fine. I can still defend against her" said Shella.
"it has been proven that the horseman is a traitor, he did not even help us. It's possible that he's the one who gave the bandit information, "I said.
"Alright, but we have to defeat the bandits first" said Shella.
"Hm(nodding) I will also fight." I replied.
When fighting this stupid bandit bandit it was like just playing. They don't know who I am, I'm the Dark Witch who once defeated the Minotaur army, yes the times I lost against ordinary humans. Because of my contribution, those bandits started to get overwhelmed and our soldiers won against him.
The viewpoint of the bandit leader woman:
Cihh, the power of a child named Mathius Twilight is indeed very great, I underestimated it too much.
...****************...
"Hey you young lady, it seems that our troops lost against you," said the bandit leader.
"Hahaha, you finally admitted defeat.." as Shella spoke suddenly the bandit leader jumped at her and unsheathed his sword towards Shella.
"if I can't beat you, then I will kill you" said the bandit leader.
His attack misses but when after his attack misses the bandit leader immediately attacked Shella and made deep scratches on his arm and right thigh then kicked him hard and Shella was back knocked then he stood back up but staggering from the pain and his energy also started to run out.
"Hahaha, end your history, Miss Phantom Execution," said the bandit leader.
Phantom Execution is a skill that combines magic power and sword skills. This skill can slash targets within the area, for example if there are 10 people in the area, then all will be slashed. The way it works is the skill user jumps towards the target area and slashes it until it penetrates to the back of the target. The target can survive if the target can make a protector stronger than the attack or its speed exceeds the attack.
In this condition, Shella is in pain and running out of energy, but Mathius realizes that the bandit leader will kill Shella.
"DELAY!!!" Shouted the bandit leader.
At that time the bandit leader immediately launched his attack on Shella, he was very fast and at the time the distance between the bandit leader and Shella was only about 1 meter, Mathius at his speed headed straight towards Shella, carrying her and taking her to a safer place.
"you've fought well, Shella. For now leave it to me." Mathius told Shella. The bandit leader was surprised at Mathius' speed.
The viewpoint of the bandit leader woman:
whahuh? he was very quick, but there was little I could kill the woman, but he saved her.
...****************...
If only Mathius had been late for a second, maybe Shella was dead,
"Hey, surrender. All the bandits we've defeated" Mathius told the bandit leader.
"Cihh! I won't give up, if I want to then catch me." said the bandit leader, but while in the middle of the conversation without his knowledge, Mathius was already at his side. Mathius patted his shoulder then said,
"You talk too much" and Mathius gripped and threw the bandit leader up, Mathius darted up and pushed the bandit leader to the ground violently, as Mathius did to Astrea De Reiven.
It can be ascertained that some bones from the bandit leader were broken,
"YESH, Saki!" the bandit leader.
"I told you not to. If only you had given up from the beginning, then I would have treated you even more gently," Mathius said as he walked over to the bandit leader who lay helplessly.
When Mathius got closer, he suddenly felt that something was coming towards him.
"Jep-Jep-Jep" turns out to be an arrow pointing at Mathius, but he manages to evade her.
Suddenly the bandit leader was teleported to a man hovering above the air. Then he said,
"You guys are great also turned out to be able to beat Nozel (the name of the female bandit leader)"
And a horde of more bandits came again and not only ordinary bandits they even had many witches, he said,
"Last your history,"
