An insane marathon and ominous aura...

Under the morning sun that shone brightly at the angle of 10 o'clock, Fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh! Three stems of plants veiled with bright crimson mana were shot towards the bushes ahead.

Gyahhh!!

Nghh!

Arayy!

Three cries were heard. Then three silhouettes leaped out from the bushes. One of them was pierced in the shoulder, the other one was pierced to its leg and the last one was hit at the arm.

"This s**t!" Cursed the guy who was hit at the shoulder.

"Damn it! How did he know?" Asked the second one in puzzlement.

"Careful!!" Warned the last one.

They took the stems and healed their wounds. "Tsk, [Heal]," each of them cast healing magic. "Good thing that we learned healing ability beforehand," said the first person.

"The heck, that's not a good way of greeting us. Wait how did he know we're hiding here?!" Asked the second one. But no one knew the answer.

Ahead of them, they saw a person rapidly rushing towards them.
