Chapter 24 Immense Speed



And it easily dissipated a few centimeters before it. "Great. At least I get to kill another lizard for you old friend. And this one, might be the toughest out of all of... them!!"

David finished his monologue with a ferocious charge towards the lizard, his speed at its maximum and his strength riled up to the core.

Gig\'s Hammer in his hands only made his monstrous presence even more frightening.

"Roar!!!"

The lizard also let out a powerful roar, and shot out a canon blast of lava-like flames towards David. The man easily avoided the attack, as it\'s lethality was beyond even his defenses.

Immediately as he avoided the canon blast of lava-like flames, he hurriedly smashed the hammer towards the lizard\'s head, unprecedented strength flowing out.

Boom!!

The air exploded out, as strength of over forty tons smashed towards the lizard.

"Roar!!"

The lizard though large, easily managed to roll over and avoided a barrage of attacks from David, who was slowly reverting back to a madman out for blood.

And one thing that could be said after that was, everything became a bloody mess. One that David would never forget for the rest of his life...

For the joy brought by slaughtering these Lizards, was incomparable to anything on Gaea.

~~~

Esther\'s Trial.

Within a forest that was quiet and almost peaceful, a large, yet slim wolf crawled along the bushes and plants.

"..."

It\'s nose was almost planted on the ground, sniffing here and there for its prey, yet to no avail.

It\'s ears were perked up, showing its vigilance and caution as it moved. And from time to time, the wolf would raise its head to survey the aoroundings.

Since it\'s nose was not working as perfectly as it remembered, it would use its sight and hearing. Unfortunately for the wolf, even that did not help.

Meanwhile, up in the sky, a large eagle flashing with a spark of lightning flew by.

It was quite large, having a wingspan of six meters, and powerful golden eyes. It\'s fur and feathers were black and white, yet with a tinge of blue to it.

It\'s beak was pure golden, having a small lightning mark on the left side.

"..."

It flew through the skies of the small forest, surveying for any signs of prey. Yet to its dismay, could find no hint whatsoever.

It had been here for three minutes so far, and yet, had not even seen the visage of the opponent it was supposed to battle.

Not even a glimpse, or what gender or race they were. Let alone it, even the wolf down there had no idea of how the prey/target looked like, let alone how they smelt.

So even after six minutes of survey, both from above and below, they still could not find any hints whatsoever.

And it had to be known, one was a Tempest Wolf, and the other was a Thunder Eagle. Both nicknamed Storm Chasers, with how fast they were.

By now, they should have explored the whole forest. Yet they found nothing? How did that make any sense?

"..."

Well it did, simply because they were up against a professional assassin. A hunter among predators. A cold-blooded woman.

~~~

Sniff~ Sniff~

The wolf sniffed the ground once again, yet found no traces of what it was looking for. It\'s targeted scent was anything not \'forestry\'.

In other words, anything foreign.

Yet everywhere it went, was nothing but the scent of the wild, of the trees, the herbs and other greenery.

Which dulled the Wolve\'s mood.

By now, it was getting impatient and annoyed. Working for so long, and finding no clue or a leeway, would annoy anyone. Especially so, as it was a wild beast.

"..."

Above it, the Thunder Eagle flew past the Tempest Wolf for the nth time, and cast its disdainful gaze upon it, before flying off.

The Tempest Wolf ignored that, and raised its head to survey the soroundings once more, then with a foul mood and drooped ears, lowered its head to continue its sniffing.

Yet at this moment, when the Thunder Eagle just flew past, and the Tempest Wolf was just about to lower its head, a black flash moving at instantaneous speed collided into it.

It was fast, yet silent.

No sounds were made, and everything occurred instantly at that.

...!!!

The Tempest Wolf was also caught off guard, and fearful, hence why it failed to react in time.

For by the time it\'s consciousness registered everything, it\'s mouth had already bitten into a soft, thin and delicate long arm.

While it felt pain on the left side of its neck, where from the corner of its eyes, it could see a thin, long finger stabbed deep into it.

"Shh~"

A gentle voice drifted into its ears, one so heavenly, it lulled the already dying Tempest Wolf to tranquility, making it stop its twitching.

Meanwhile, the woman whom just so happened to be Esther, did not move, nor change her posture.

Her legs had locked the Tempest Wolf, and pinned it down. While her left arm was bit by it, to shut it up.

Of course it was painful, yet from her expression, and her dead-like gray eyes, she did not seem to register the pain yet.

And lastly, her middle finger had been used by her, to piece deeply into the Tempest Wolf\'s neck. Making sure it died a peaceful death.

It was not yet dead though, and Esther was well aware of that. The predator was just weak, and slowly being drained of its energy and life force.

"..."

She hurriedly stood up and dragged the Tempest Wolf into the bush she just came out of, and made sure it was well hidden.

A few seconds have passed, and the Thunder Eagle should be coming back. And after another round, it would notice the sudden disappearance of the Tempest Wolf.

And that, was more than enough time for the Assassin King to make her move.

She hurriedly dashed, at insane peak human speeds, towards yet another bush.

Her every step was light, and airy. As if she never took a step to begin with. Hence it would be difficult to track her down.

She then easily blended into the bush, making sure that not even a single leaf was out of place. It was a skill that was purely inhuman, yet she did it so naturally.

It was not even an Ability.

But pure talent.

"..."

A moment later, the Thunder Wolf flew past the area, its gaze watching the ground with careful attention as always.

"???"

It then realized that sudden disappearance of the Tempest Wolf. At first, it thought nothing of it and continued to survey the environment.

Thinking that the Tempest Wolf was somewhere ahead. Pity, even after a complete round of survey, no signs of its companion could be felt.

The Thunder Eagle was now extra careful, and surveyed the ground with even more attention and caution.

For the prey to kill one of its own so silently and swiftly, brought nothing but chills and fear to the King of the Skies.

Such abilities were unheard of even to itself.

A moment later, under its extra careful scrutiny, the Thunder Eagle saw a few leafs on the ground near a bush.

The number was a bit too high, making it suspicious that they were blown off by the wind.

"..."

When it followed over from there, going a bit forward, it saw a very feint scratch on a nearby tree. It was quite feint, yet visible, as if the person was quit in the rush and was careful of their actions.

A bit further from there, everything was fine.

It made the Thunder Eagle frown, as it believed it might have lost the target.

Yet a bit further away, it saw a broken branch. It was not much of a clue, but it took it. And a bit more ahead, it saw... blood.

...!!!

The blood was from a hidden bush, thus making it hard to tell what was bleeding from within. Especially from such a high stand point.

When the Thunder Eagle tried to squint its eyes to see better, no clue was revealed. Making it question whether it had to lower its altitude to verify or not.

But it should not.

The target was unpredictable, and nobody knew what would happen to it if it lowered its height.

"Owoo... Ow, Owoo..."

Yet at this moment, from a nearby bush, a feint cry of a wolf could be heard. Moments later, a wolf tail brushed in and out of the back of the bush, showing both caution and excitement.

This immediately triggered the Thunder Eagle to come to a certain conclusion.

The Tempest Wolf had hidden then it felt the presence of the prey. And then, both sneaked up on each other, and the both were wounded.

The prey hid away, as well as the Tempest Wolf, none trying to show weakness to the other. But now, as the Tempest Wolf felt its presence, it cried out for help!!
