Chapter 857 Hard Pill to Swallow

Chapter 857 Hard Pill to Swallow

The moment the Minotaurs came, the camp immediately exploded into motion. The minotaur brothers, namely Arenim, Miradane, and Eradera, apparently wanted to test their strength and began challenging the Adventurers and, of course, their first target was the strongest among them, Ottar.

As someone who didn't really care about anyone else aside from his Goddess and strong people, Ottar accepted their challenge and beat them within an inch of their lives. While there were many individuals who were stronger than the Minotaur brothers, Ottar liked them because they had more guts than most Adventurers and never backed down from their invitation.

But even then, Ottar couldn't command the same respect the brothers have for Yoruichi.

Naturally, the brother's challenges didn't just end with Ottar, as they also went after the other top Adventurers. Those days became the noisiest as the brothers would always provoke others. Not having much intelligence, their provocation was at the level of a child's, but coming from a 'monster', most Adventurer's pride couldn't really take it. However, aside from the executives of the Loki and Freya Familias, no one else could really fight them on an equal footing.

Until one day, a few of the Adventurers could take it anymore and gathered others who didn't like their existence and attacked the brothers using their overwhelming numbers. As these Adventurers only got angrier when the Minotaurs called them cowards and cheaters, the brothers had no choice but to seek shelter behind their 'Boss'.

It was then that Yoruichi's vague position in the whole expedition team was solidified as she met everyone head-on. With none of their Magic and Weapons seeming to be able to even wound her, Yoruichi almost killed half of them using only brute force while slowly walking through the battlefield as if a farmer harvesting her crops, one by one.

But the legend was only created when Ottar, Allen, the Gulliver brothers, Bete, and Gareth joined the fun and suffered the same fate as the first 'half'. That day, most of the Elixir stock was gone just trying to keep the Adventurers alive.

"The way she used her Ki to cover only the parts that were about to hit was truly masterful. I wonder when I will get to that level?" Tiona muttered with an admiring expression. Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

"After reaching the size of a normal Wyvern, she stopped growing and gained the ability to change her body size. Right now, she's nestling on Ais' head as if she missed that spot."

"I see... I guess that's good." Riveria then turned to Lefiya and Filvis, "How is your Healing Magic progressing?"

Lefiya and Filvis looked at each other before the latter answered, "I can do it, but it's far from usable."

"Mine is already usable, but not to the extent that I want. I can't progress as much as I want," answered Lefiya, "Is our supply of Elixir really stretched that thin already?"

Riveria nodded, "That's right. We've already sent a team to get a resupply, but our emergency supply is being depleted faster than we expected."

"Couldn't we ask Yoruichi-sama and Serafall-sama for some assistance? After all, they're the initiators of this expedition."

Riveria shook her head, "We've already tried, but they said that there would be no point in this expedition if there weren't any risks. Still, because of that attack on Yoruichi, this problem has become critical. Not that we can really say anything since it's our collective responsibility as a group."

Moments after she finished talking, another voice came from the outside of the tent, "Riveria-sama, are you in here?"

"Andromeda? Come in."

Asfi entered the tent and bobbed her head in greeting to the other individuals inside before approaching Riveria, "Our materials for the Intermediate Potions are not going to last long. We have to limit their distribution and depend on Healing Magic as much as possible."

"What? Shouldn't we still have enough?"

It was Asfi's turn to be confused, "Could it be that you haven't heard yet? Irregular monsters have started appearing."
