"Do you understand me" the human asked as his gaze looked at me in wonder. Flexing my claws, I looked at the human for a second or two befor responding with a voice that was close to a whisper but filled with rage.
"do you understand me, human"
The humans eyes widened in surprise, obviously he wasn't expecting me to respond. The humans eyes gazed over towards my wings and tail as he took one step forward. My tail swirled over my shoulder to point at the human quickly stopping him in his tracks. The human let his gaze linger on my tail befor once again turning my way.
"What are you" The human wondered out loud. "you have humanoid form and if I didn't know better than I would think you to be some kind of rare demi human. Except, I sense the presence of a magic crystal in you which tells me your definitely some kind of monster as only monsters have those.
And based on your abilities and fighting prowess not to mention your human like appearance, you must be at least tier 4, either that or you've trained up your mana to a miraculous degree making you a very rare specimen"
(Wait..... A magic crystal??? , now that he mentions it, I do feel a weird tingle coming from somewhere just below my hair line.) Not letting my thoughts show, I kept my eyes trained on the Human as I waited for any sudden movements.
My gaze was steady as I looked at the human waiting for any movement, just one single twitch and his head would be rolling on the ground.F eeling a vibration under my feet I quickly dodged to the left as a barely visible net made out of air spring from the ground.
Feeling a sharp pain In my stomach I looked down to find a knife sticking out of my stomach. Letting out a growl, I looked behind me to see the human, which I had pinned against the tree, holding a knife in my back. Kicking the ground with force and twisting my body while grabbing the humans hand, I threw the human over my shoulder as I quickly moved back several feet.
Holding the blade of the knife with my scaled hand I made sure the knife didn't fall out of my body as to not bleed out. Breathing heavily I could feel my skin start to reconstruct itself as I let the knife fall out of my body. Spreading out my wings I was about to take off towards the humans when a very familiar roar sounded throughout the area. Looking to my left I could see Kawaii standing a few meters away from where I was standing while looking at the whole in my shirt with rage.
Slowly turning his head towards the humans a incredible amount of bloodlust three times stronger than what I had released a moment ago spread throughout the area. Cracks started spreading through all the nearby trees as a invisible aura covered Kawaii as he started to move towards my direction.
Walking up to me while keeping a eye on the humans Kawaii spoke with a aggravated tone "The message you left told me you were going hunting for rabbits, so can you tell me why your fighting a group of damn humans WITHOUT THE INTENTION OF RUNNING AWAY." He yelled the last few words. The humans looked at us with scared faces as Kawaii's blood lust suddenly took another leap in strength.
To them it was more like Kawaii roared than talked while starting at them even though he was actually talking to me. Kawaii turned towards me with fury in his eyes as his tails swung behind him in aggravation. looking at Kawaii I let out a sigh as I started to explain what I saw.
Closing his eyes Kawaii's expression started to change as his frown became deeper as the seconds passed. His expression kept changing from anger, to guilt, to sadness and many others that I couldn't identify. I looked over at the humans confused as why they hadn't tried attacking yet as my face morphed into one of understanding. Each of the humans had veins bulging all up and down there body's as you could see there struggle to keep from falling down.
There breaths came in shallow gasps as they tried there hardest to stay awake while under the massive amount of bloodlust.
Strangely the bloodlust that I felt to have spread throughout the entire area was now only focusing on the humans. There legs buckled under them as several cracking sounds could be heard as they were all forced to there knee's. Seeing movement in the corner of my eye I turned to see Kawaii slowly start to walk towards the humans with a look of pure fury on his face as I subconsciously took several steps back.
"Yuki, go ahead and go rescue the captured monsters, I will take care of these humans."
He said in a low tone that sent shivers down my spine in fear.
Quickly turning around I started running for the trapped monsters without giving the humans a second glance. Seconds after I could hear unearthly screams that shook the air. Not caring to look back I quickly rushed towards the area with all the cages as the screams slowly started to turn quieter the farther away I got. Mine and the humans battle must have taken us quite a ways from the area with the trapped monsters and animals because it took almost 20 minutes to reach the place.
The sun was setting whenever I finally reached the are with the trapped monsters. I could still faintly here the sounds of screams coming from far away as I headed towards the first cage I saw. Running up to the cage I quickly covered my claws with my shadows befor slashing at it with my full strength breaking it apart. Keeping my claws covered with shadows I then slashed at the glowing blue symbol as pain went up my arm from the electric shock. Not caring about the pain that went through my hand from the electricity I didn't care to look at the creature inside the cage that I had just released as I quickly ran towards the next cage.
As I was about to swipe at the cage I was blocked by a large human wearing giant silver armor while holding a great sword.
Using the scales on my arms to block the humans strike I quickly diverted the giant swords momentum into the ground as I speared my tail into the small gap in the humans helmet where it went into the humans head quickly killing him. Twisting my body while swiping at the next cage I dodged a deathly sword blow as the sound of metal hitting earth sounded in my ears. Putting my hands against the ground I swung my body in a full circle before using the momentum to kick the chest plate of my new attacker sending him flying. Looking around I quickly noticed I was surrounded by multiple humans, most of them were wearing leather type armour with very few wearing any metal. Each human had multiple blood stains, even the ones wearing metal armour had multiple red stains on there chest plates or shoulder covering.
Spreading out my wings and swirling my tail over my shoulder I hissed threateningly as the humans all charged at me at once. Releasing a battle cry that sounded like a mix of multiple animals with the most distinguishable one being that of a large roar resembling a dragon, I started to attack the closest humans. Twisted my body I dodged the first humans attacks before quickly spearing my tail into his helmet efficiently killing him. Dodging another sword strike I used the body of the human I had just killed as a bat as I spun the humans body in a circle with massive amounts of speed flinging several humans into the air along with the body I was just holding who's leg ripped off from the strain of being flung around.
Feeling a pain in my shoulder I looked behind me to see a knife sticking out of it, quickly taking the knife out of my shoulder I swiftly fucked low with my body while turning as I stabbed the knife into the nearest humans back leg forcing the knife through his leather armor.
At this point multiple cuts started to appear on my body as I started to get exhausted. My regeneration started to slow down as I stated losing more in more blood as multiple cuts started appearing on my body. Suddenly multiple humans started to scream as a bright orange blur swept past me followed by a very familiar roar as multiple humans were flung into the air. Giving another large battle cry I jumped into the fray of humans as me and Kawaii started our massacre of fury.
Pride started to well up in my heart. These humans have done wrong to these monsters, and I was going to save them. NOT A SINGLE HUMAN WAS GOING TO ESCAPE!!!
