20 Thrill

'How I'll get out of this? As Zhi Rui stood up she saw Hilda frozen. she put a hand on her shoulder

Hilda looked at Zhi Rui's eyes "W-We must escape."

Zhi Rui herself was scared, but she knew, in front of a level three, their chance of escaping was small. And they'll need to concentrate.

"Oops I talked to much." the level three bastard spoke in a light tone.

As the carriage started to gain speed

Izaya saw the guard started running with the carriage and clicked his tongue

he didn't move from the place, his daughter is inside; he has to do anythingto protect this carriage

Zhun Xuying who was white as snow just focused on gain more speed, she couldn't concentrate on anything else

Zhi Rui controlled herself and laughed out loud.

"Indeed I thought that we were going, without bothersome people.

interfering, but rat had to appear."

Zhi Rui put on a somber smile and looked at her side.

" Hilda, keep calm this carriage will gain even more speed and that guy will make sure we don't get away, if we can hold him until we get out of the forest we'll be fine. Use your crossbow. You Beastman slaveyou make sure to keep him off this carriage."

Izaya was startled by the command he looked behind and only saw the same crazy smile she gave when they were negotiating

his heart calmed down. 'with a crazy woman like this, maybe we can live.'

With a punch, Zhi Rui opened a whole on the ceiling. "Xuying go down there and give me a slave."

Zhun Xuying blindly followed the commands she ignored everything else, she knew the animals wouldn't stray the carriage from the narrow path.

Her heartbeat rose again Zhi Rui bent beside the hole.

The level three guardwas jumping around having his fun, suddenly he swiftly waves is arms

Zhi Rui couldn't see it but Izaya jumped in front of her,

she only saw shards of ice fell on the top of the carriage

with a grunt, Izaya threw the ice spike back.

the man just laughed.

Hildalooked at the deep cut on tIzaya's arm and paled

Zhi Rui smiledat the man "Hilda!"

Hilda shot a bolt at the enemy

"oy, oy you shouldn't throw things like this around you know."

Zhi Rui eyes shonebrightly,

"ugh! what is this?the man looked at his torn uniform, just now he clearly evaded how come it suddenly appeared elsewhere?

He looked at the girl crouched beside a hole in the carriage with her had raised 'An illusion type' he stopped fooling around." If you don't want to die, just leave the carriage behind and go away, I won't pursue this."

Zhi Rui looked at the man with a smirk, she got a hold of another slaveshe looked at Hilda and Izaya they bothunderstood

"Sinceyou refuse, then I have to take it myself"

The man jumped forward, Izaya ignored the pain and stood forward to face off against the guard.

Hilda prepared another bolt and took aim, Zhi Rui screamed"FIRE!"

The man looked at the crossbow instantly.

yet the attack didn't come he looked up, but it was too late a body fell right in front of him he had to jump backward, with that speed he would dieif he tried to take it

Zh Rui saw they delayed him fora while but it wasn't enough

She reached out for her pouch and gave one pallet to Izayahe would be the main one defending the carriage.

looking back they were still on the halfway th man came running madly trying to catch up one wrong move and they'll die.

The man lost his patience "fine if one won't do it, how about one more?!"

With a whizz,two spikes come to them, with their speed, it was possible to see it coming this time, Izaya deflect it albeit with injuries

Soon spikes o ice rained down on them, but as the carriage got fasterit turned less and less efective.

Hilda kept harassing with arrows Zhi Rui kept distorting their positions on top of the carriage but the carriage was suffering too much damage.

sweat was pouring out of their faces

Izaya looked at Zhi Rui, " I can transform, but it'll be for a very short time.

Zhi Rui nodded.

The veins of his eyes grew large Quickly,

Hilda could not see what was happening behind her,she was shooting at the man trying to keep him busy

suddenly Izaya looked ahead his muscles had veins showingall over them"one move" he grumbled.

Zhi Rui did not need more than this

"Hilda shootas much as arrows as possible."

Zhi Rui used the most of her remaining energy to distort the area around Izaya.She looked atXuyin "at my signal you stop this, understood? "

Xuying nodded, 'we are betting everything in this one move.'

"Young miss, if I die, know that I died cursing you."

Zhi Rui just smirked, " As long as I'm as alive, the number of grudges don't matter."

Zhi Rui gave three unconscious slaves to Izaya who used them as a shield. The man running at two hundred kilometers per hour sped up even more When he reachedtop speed together with the carriageZhi Rui looked at Izaya, he nodded

Zhi Rui held firmly on the carriage and screamed: "Now Xuyin!"

Zhun Xuyingpulled the reign strongly making the white elk stop abruptly

When the man understood what happened he was five steps away from thecarriage

Hilda jumped before the carriage stopped, leaving only Izaya to meet the man head on

with the inertia at his back and the level three Guard coming with total speed, Izaya with the mace of Zhi Rui put every ounce of strength he could muster and swung it .

"Shield!" the man screamed.

The sound of breaking ice and a weird thumps. was the last thing Izaya heard.

Hilda fell rolling on the ground, She lied there, the smell of dust, thetaste of iron in her mouth and the absurd pain in her legs Hilda tried to open her eyes

she could see the sky.

she looked at her left.

Her eyes opened wide in shock.

Izaya was unconscious on the ground it looked like a group of beasts had run over him.

She grew restless trying to look all around him when a handheld her head,

"The enemy is dead" no need to worry."

Hilda looked at Zhi Rui's face right above hers

Zhi Rui smiled with mirth, she put a pallet in her own mouth and slowly neared Hilda's

'Hilda, opened her eyes wide when it was about to touch, Zhi Rui just dropped it on Hilda's mouth.

"Haha, after you bit my mouth I won'tlet you taste me so easy."

Zhi Rui looked at the scene around her, it was chaos, corpses dust and ice all around.

but she finally felt... secured.
