Whistle!
Thud!
"Augh!" Hearing something thrown the air, followed by Fred's body hitting the floor with a shout of pain.
Relying on my hearing, I moved my spinning chakrams close to Sammy and Wendy to protect the upper ċhėst, trying to keep them safe enough to survive while I paired the shots sent towards me.
Whistle!
Clung!
Cling!
After a dozen shots, they all stopped firing at us.
"To think you would be able to block so many shots, fox. Alas, you didn't block everything." A man said, walking closer to me, referring to the 5 daggers in my legs and torso.
"Heh, why does that matter. Whaha." I said seriously before breaking down, laughing at what I saw when I opened up.
"What are you laughing at?" The guy said, confused.
"I am laughing at you. Who the fuċk wears that on a night raid."? I said, pointing at his black panda onesie.
'He seems very confident in killing. Seeing as he doesn't even have a mask or his weapon out for encase. Well, it's probably because he knows Kayda and Grandenzil are still fighting on top of the wall and that he is a high-level ȧssassin. Sadly no one here will be fast enough to kill me before Kayda shows up.' thought, looking at everyone.
"You dare laugh at our lord dressing code."
"Dressing code?" I said, looking around, confused. Seeing 12 other people also in black panda onesies, I broke down laughing again. "Whahahaha, your lord has some style."
"I guess he must be a reincarnate.' I thought while laughing at the.
"If you think you will distract us enough so you could complete your spell, your sorely mistaken." The guy said, releasing a fire wave stalling my spell underground.
"Aah, you notice. Well, you guys still look funny." I said, pulling out the daggers in my legs.
"don't you have any pain?" One of the other black pandas asks, confused.
"Fuck yes, I do have pain, and it's irritating, but sadly I have such a high tolerance for pain that this just feels like a shark bite," I said, waving him off.
"Shark bite?" The guy mumbled, even more confused.
"Hmm, you still look so relaxed even though you know you are going to die." The guy that first talked to me said.
"Die? That won't be happening." I said, ignoring him. I walked towards Sammy and Wendy on the floor.
"Standstill bitch!" The guy yelled, pulling out his sword.
"Shut up, we have injured people here," I said, inspecting Sammy and Wendy.
'Sammy looks completely fine except for the one dagger in her thɨġh, but Wendy doesn't look so good.' I thought, looking at Wendy that had 3 daggers pointing out of her body were 2 were in her legs, and one was pointing out of her liver.
"Did I not say standstill." The man yelled, swinging his sword down at my back.
Clung!
"What!?" The man said, surprise. Felling his sword vibrate on my back.
'I used most of my mana to create that shield to use when Grandenzil might attack me, but this guy just had to.' I thought, annoyed.
"Do you really think I am so dumb to turn my back on my enemy?" I said, wrapping my tail around the guy's ankle before swinging around, trying to buy more time.
"Aah, what are you guys doing!? Get her!" The guy yelled while being swung around like a rag doll.
"Kayda, you finally here," I said, looking up at Kayda in the air with a bright smile.
"Shit, we need to run away its Kayda, the sage." A guy yelled, look at Kayda.
"How could you forget about me!" Grandenzil said, appearing behind the guy that just yelled.
"Shit, I thought they wouldn't interfere with our fight." A man in the back said, stepping back.
"They wouldn't have if I didn't inspire you guys to attack," I said, letting go of the guy I was swinging around. Looking at the unconscious body, I added. "This guy passed out by just being swung around a couple of times. Are you guys weaker or stronger than him?"
"...Run away!" Ignoring me, they turned around, trying to run away.
"Tch, remember I want information," I said, giving Grandenzil a glance.
"And who are you to give me an order?" Grandenzil said, glaring at me.
"..." not saying anything, I made a katana in my hand and pointed at the heavy bleeding Wendy on the ground.
"No, Wendy," Grandenzil mumbled, glaring at me.
"I am the I only one here who can save her, so go get my information," I said with a straight face.
"You better save her," Grandenzil said, running after the black pandas.
"Sigh, she really is a scary woman," I said, sighing in relief.
"You really are daring," Kayda said, landing next to me. Looking down at Wendy, she continued. "Can you really save her?"
"Yes, but there is something I want you to keep a secret for me okay," I said, crouching down next to Wendy.
"Yes, of course."
"You too, Sammy," I said, glancing at the unmoving demon girl.
"Why would I do that?" Sammy said, sitting up in pain.
"Because then I won't have to knock you out."
"Fine, I will keep it a secret."
'Well, not that you will be able to tell anyone after tonight anyways.' I thought, making a knife in my hands.
Slice!
Cutting my palm, I let the blood flow without healing it. Bring it closer to Wendy's wound around her liver. I infuse my blood with my regen skill before letting the blood drip onto Wendy.
"Ugh!" Grunting in pain, Wendy clenched her fist.
"Wendy!?" Sammy said, moving to the other side of Wendy.
"I never thought you could do that," Kayda said, baffled.
"Well, it is really hard, and I could only do this since I have witnessed Sirone's healing skill. However, it's really not recommended to do this." I said, feeling all my blood drain from my face.
"Nova, are you alright," Kayda said worriedly.
"Nope, not at all," I said, feeling my body go limp.
"Just low down," Kayda said, grabbing me.
"This is the first time I ran so low on mana. Ha-ha, that took way more mana than I thought it would." I said weakly, lying on the ground giving the worried Kayda a smile. Looking at my stats, I saw I had only 4 points of mana left.
"If it's mana, I can give you," Kayda said, purring a hand on my stomach.
"Don't, let me recover naturally. It might be too bad for me at this point." I said, pushing her hand off me.
"But?"
"don't worry so much you already know this won't kill me. Instead of worrying, make certain that those two don't just run off and also bind that guy that passed out." I said, grinning at her deadpan look.
"half-dead, and you still give orders," Kayda said, shaking her head at my antics.
"Orders? I am asking nicely here." I said, surprised.
"Yes, you are nice. Let me tell you..." Kayda said sarcastically.
(20 minutes of lecturing later.)
"Kayda, you're so mean," I whɨnėd, looking up at Kayda while sitting crossed-legged on the floor.
"Shut up. I am still lecturing you for your rash behaviors," Kayda said, glaring down at me.
"But Grandenzil is back with everyone who attacked us," I said, gesturing towards the confused Grandenzil.
"How long has it been?" Grandenzil asks, looking down at the fully recovered Wendy.
"About 20 minutes."
"Do you think they are going to stop anytime soon? These guys are going to wake up any minute now." Grandenzil said, looking at the 13 black panda suit people on the floor.
"Nova, give them restraints before we continue."
"can't we just stop, and how do you know I have enough?"
"I know you cleared out the storage at the mansion, so your mother won't torture her troops with that sort of training anymore," Kayda said, narrowing her eyes at me.
"How do you know that!? It's not my fault they begged me to stop her, and you know how she becomes if I try talking her down." I said desperately while taking out enough restraints for them.
"This is going to take some time," Wendy said, walking to the pile of restraints on the floor.
(20 minutes of more lectures.)
"Okay, can you guys stop now? It's almost sunrise." Grandenzil said, frustrated, getting between Kayda and me.
"Tch fine," Kayda said, clicking her tongue.
"Yes, you're a lifesaver, Grandenzil," I said, standing up before my face converted into pain, feeling my legs seize up.
"Are you okay?" Grandenzil said, looking at me.
"Yes, I just need to wake up my legs," I said, hitting my legs.
"Okay?" Grandenzil said, confused.
"Anyways, how many are awake so far," I said, stretching out my legs.
"All of them," Wendy said from behind everyone.
"Aah, good, then we start with someone random," I said, walking up to the 13 black panda people sitting on their knees glaring at us.
"What do you mean by that."
"My interrogation, of course."
"So, you going to do what you did to me to them?" Sammy said from the side healed, making me confused.
"you're healed? Whatever, yes, but worse.." I said, nodding at her.
