Chapter 78 Being A Bookworm Isn’t That Bad Huh...¦

"This doesn't make sense… why didn't the humans hide the bodies?" Kamdem, the Elephant Kin questioned.

"Huh?"

"I mean, they were trying to capture all the survivors so that information leak can be prevented, right? Then why didn't they hide the bodies?" Kamdem repeated his question more clearly.

"They aren't trying to hide the information leak."

Another female sitting inside the room answered, she had white fox ears and fox tails, her crystal blue eyes were hypnotic, her face was beautiful and she had alluring curves with a perfect hourglass figure. She was Levina, the Fox Kin.

She moved her body toward and then continued,

"The humans aren't trying to hide any information, if they wanted that, they would have surrounded the village before attacking."

"Then why were they capturing the survivors?" Kamdem questioned.

"Didn't you hear what Cyneric say? There were only dead bodies and naked women in the village, I think we can all assume what happened to them." Levina answered.

"If they were doing something like that, then why did they leave? Why didn't Cyneric find anyone? Why didn't they take away all the females with them?" Kamdem questioned.

Helie, who had been silent for a while, nodded,

"There was a new survivor who entered the town a while ago, according to her, those humans were still in the Neko Village an hour ago, and from what she told me, they had just started.

If they had the guts to do that in the village, there is no reason for them to leave the village within an hour."

"An hour ago… it's almost as if they knew Cyneric was coming for them., Kamdem muttered.

Suddenly, Levina's eyes widened in surprise as she questioned,

"Cyneric, did you meet any humans while you were rushing towards the village with your army?"

"Huh? What does it have to do with any of this?" Cyneric questioned.

"Just answer my question."

Cyneric shook his head.

"No, I did not meet any of those bastards, else I would have captured."

A frown appeared on Levina's face.

Now she was confused as well.

"What you are thinking is plausible, Levina." Kamdem as he glanced at Levina.

"Although Cyneric didn't see any humans, there are chances that some humans, who were sent to hunt other Catkins found him and hid, then, they used their Call tablet, this must have alerted the humans and they ran away in hurry."

"That seems plausible." Helie nodded.

Cyneric, who heard it gritted his teeth in anger.

"If only I had taken Lionaa's Call tablet seriously…"

"What do you mean?" Suddenly, Levina narrowed her eyes.

"2 hours ago, Lionaa used her Call tablet to call me," Cyneric answered as he took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

"And you didn't go…" Levina muttered.

She didn't blame him. She knew that girl Lionaa, although she appeared strict and unfriendly, inwardly, she loves her father a lot, therefore, she uses the Call tablet to call her father every time she wants to meet him.

One day, Cyneric took a whole army, just to realize that Lionaa only wanted to see it.

He had told her countless times that the Call tablet is something that is used for emergency purposes, however, since Beastmen are friendly with Star Beasts, there are no apparent threats on any village, therefore, Lionaa just shrugged it off.

Cyneric just shook his head and gave up on teaching her.

Believe it or not, Lionaa's this attitude saved Cyneric's life.

If Cyneric had taken her seriously and would have rushed towards the Neko Village, the one who orchestrated everything wouldn't be so happy about this, this would force that man to act, and if that man acted, Cyneric would have lost his life before he could even make it to the village.

"There is still one thing that I don't understand." Suddenly, Levina muttered.

"What is it?" Kamdem questioned.

"Why?

Why would the humans do something like this?" Levina questioned.

"It doesn't matter." Cyneric was the one who answered.

Right now, his eyes were red in anger and from how his body was trembling; everyone in the room knew how hard he was trying to hold himself back.

And why wouldn't he be angry? He lost the daughter he loved dearly after all.

Then, he closed his rage-filled eyes, and a few seconds later, he opened them with an unnerving calmness.

"The reason doesn't matter.

What were the situations, why they did it, what forced them to do it,

Nothing matters.

The only thing that matters is that they were the ones who attacked us.

Therefore, they are going to pay."

Cyneric declared.

"We aren't going to talk and ask for an explanation from the humans?" Levina frowned.

"Asking for explanation is done by the weaker side, Levina.

We are not weak.

It's the humans who are weak.

We just need to act.

We just need to avenge our brethren.

We, just need to Kill."

…

"Have you used the Call Tablet?"

30 minutes ago, On the other side, inside the middle of the forest, Azriel, who was standing in front of 4 human soldiers questioned with a smile on his face.

"Y-Yes," one of the soldiers nodded.

Azriel's smile widened even more, and then, he waited.

*Buzz*

Suddenly, the Call tablets all the humans carried buzzed again and the humans frowned.

"Why are they calling us?"

One of the soldiers couldn't help but question, he was about to respond, however,

"Stop." He was ordered to stop.

"Do not answer them," Azriel muttered with a big smile on his face.

Everything was going exactly how Ithania had predicted.

It was as if she could see the future.

To be honest, Azriel was impressed by the Bookworm's skills.

"Let's end this, shall we?" Azriel muttered as he stretched his body.

Suddenly, a sword appeared in his hand.

The human soldiers' eyes widened in horror when they saw the sword, however, before they could even react, they were beheaded.

*Buzz*

The Call Tablet they had buzzed again, however, Azriel didn't respond, he just stood there and watched it buzzing with a smile on his face.

"Took you a long time to deal with bugs like these… even I could have dealt with them faster than you…" Suddenly, Azriel heard a voice, he then turned around and saw a beautiful blue-haired girl walking toward him with a smile on her face.

"Heh. Didn't you see how they fell on their knees and bowed so pathetically? How could I not have some fun after meeting cowards like these?

They were so entertaining." Azriel laughed.

"Well, it was entertaining, especially that, 'I have a pregnant wife back home' part." Ithania nodded and then she chuckled.

"Hahaha~ That was funny indeed, I almost laughed out loud." Azriel nodded back as he laughed as well.

*Buzz*

While they were talking, the human's call tabled buzzed again.

Seeing that, Ithania smiled and she muttered,

"This should be the last one."

"Yeah," Azriel nodded.

"Now, if the leader has a little bit of brain, he would be able to predict that his men are dead and would run away as soon as possible.

At the same time, your 'niece' would enter Summerden Town and some Beastmen troops would finally move out to try and kill those humans.

However, they won't find anything and will be even more enrage-"

*Step* *Step* *Step*

"MOVE! MOVE! MOVE!"

Ithania was speaking, however, suddenly she and Azriel heard countless footsteps and a voice.

Azriel and Ithania dashed towards the voice, there, they saw a Lion Kin leading a few soldiers and rushing towards the Neko Village with a sword in his hand.

"Huh? They arrived here earlier than we thought…" Azriel muttered with a frown.

"They must have acted once the first set of survivors entered their town." Ithania assumed.

"Should I act?" Azriel questioned.

"Hmm? I don't think we need to act right now. Those humans must have run away or would be running away right now. I think they will make it." Ithania muttered as she assessed the situation.

Azriel observed Ithania for a while and was even more impressed.

"What are you looking at?" Ithania questioned.

"Heh. Being a bookworm isn't that bad huh…" Azriel teased.

"Yeah, but being a Brute is always bad." Ithania scoffed.

"Tsk Tsk, don't get cocky now, no matter how much you plan, nothing would bore fruit if you don't have my strength.

In the end, strength is what's important."

"Yeah yeah, don't worry, I'll catch up to you soon," Ithania muttered.

"Keep dreaming." Azriel waved his hand.

"I am not dreaming."

And the two of them started their bickering.
