Chapter 124: An Attack from the Sky Wyba finally stopped attacking as she was tired; if she continued attacking she would be unable to fly.

Wyba had the capability of flying, and even in a half-beast form she didn’t lose it, so she didn’t waste energy like Yale to fly, but if her body were exhausted, she would fall. That was the same than someone who was tired and couldn’t walk more, she didn’t use her energy, but her body could still feel tiredness.

No one could blame Wyba for stopping, she already did a great job and knocked out a lot of bandits. However, as she stopped her attacks, the bandits started to win even more advantage in the town.

The bandits had killed uncountable men, and they had also captured a lot of women, those numbers only increased since Wyba stopped her attacks.

Yale had tried his new battle skill a few times, but the opponent wasn’t foolish enough to lose any limb due to that attack, it didn’t even injure him.

The bandit had some injuries from Yale’s normal attacks with the sword, but nothing great. Yale had avoided any injury with the Water Battle Armor as he didn’t want to reveal his Auto-regeneration. Even if the capability of healing oneself didn’t mean that he could treat others, he tried to hide it.

“Bastards, do you still battling with those weaklings? You should have conquered the town long ago!”

A powerful voice covered the town at the same time that Yale and the tiger man faces changed because the owner of that voice was a 6-star Novice Rank.

“Boss, we still have some problems with the two Novice Ranks, they weren’t tired from battling when we arrived. They hadn’t battled before at all.”

Yale’s opponent shouted those words to the sky, and the powerful voice replied again.

“I see that they even killed one of you, how can you be that weak? It seems that I need to finish this myself.”

Yale had a bad premonition after hearing those words, and his opponent was a bit distracted; Yale managed to send him to a house wall breaking it with the impact.

Using the time before his opponent recovered, Yale created ice wings with the Water Battle Armor and flew at top speed towards Wyba.

The voice seemed to come from above them, and Yale thought that the boss was someone with a bird bloodline capable of flying, in that case, Wyba, who was in the sky, was in danger.

Yale was ready to use Absolute Protection in any moment, but he needed to near her a bit more, he didn’t think that anyone there would be able to detect time ripples and even if someone discovered the time ripples, it was still better than let Wyba die.

Wyba noticed that Yale was acting strange and decided to also fly towards him.

A few seconds later they were able to see a shadow with wings in the sky rushing towards them. That shadow didn’t have arms, he only had wings, but was wielding a spear with his bird claw-like feet.

Yale was unable to reach Wyba before the bird-like man, but he had neared enough to cast Absolute Protection and save her.

At that moment the tiger man was starting to get seriously injured as he was battling against two opponents, but he didn’t blame Yale because he left the battle to go saving the little girls.

Yale was about to cast Absolute Protection, but he stopped, and Wyba avoided the bird-like man easily.

It wasn’t that the bird-like man had turned clumsy or had lost his killing intent, he was dead, so his moves were easy to predict.

Just a moment before, an arrow pierced through the bird-like man’s head killing him.

The corpse fell to the floor powerless, a powerful being capable of seriously threatening Yale’s side was killed instantly.

The difference of power between the 2-star and the 6-star was too big; Yale was still thinking what to do after saving Wyba when the man who threatened to their lives died.

The tiger man was also flabbergasted after noticing the death of the bandit boss, but his face turned a smiling one after two more arrows pierced the heads of his two opponents.

There was no clue about who had shot these arrows, but no one noticed them before they had already pierced their targets.

Those two bandits at the Novice Rank weren’t the only victims; all the bandits ended with an arrow in their heads before anyone noticed the moment when the arrows had hit them.

Yale and Wyba went down to the floor, but Yale didn’t turn off the Water Battle Armor as he was still wary of the person who had shot those arrows.

The tiger girl ran into her father’s arms after reaching the floor, the man was injured, but those injuries wouldn’t threaten his life, after some time he would just have some new scars in his body to remember that battle.

Fortunately for him, half-beasts were more though than humans, for an ordinary human that kind of battle would have ended with injuries that would lead to death without healing them with magic.

Yale waited in the same place with Wyba hiding at his back; Yale would put her in the Storage Space at the sight of any danger.

Meanwhile, the tiger man went to free the captured women and went to check the damages in the town. Initially, he didn’t want that his daughter went with him, but as she was crying and begging him, he ended up accepting.

The only men who had survived were those who had found good places for hiding and some 8-star mortals who faked their deaths and remained without moving among the corpses of the others.

Their injuries were very heavy, most of them had lost limbs or big pieces of flesh of their bodies. The women and the tiger man treated them with their methods, but without healing magic in a few weeks probably almost all of them would have passed away.

The tiger girl cried when the others informed her and her father about the death of her mother. They explained how she died and that so many people had been saved to her foolishness in provoking the bandits, but at the same time, she was the only woman killed in the whole town.

The father only sighed, he had never loved that woman and was forced to be with her, but he didn’t want that bandits killed her either. However, the father felt guilty due to the first thought he had after noticing her death.

“At least she won’t provoke more fearsome people in the future.”

That woman was like a time bomb; it was a matter of time before she provoked a disaster, no one could blame him for thinking those words after her death even if it was cruel.

Few minutes had passed, and no one arrived at the town, Yale was starting to think that whoever helped them didn’t want to appear in front of them.

However, Yale was wrong because a shadow appeared in the sky at the next moment. It was difficult to see at first, but it neared too quickly, and soon Yale was able to see that person well.

It was a woman with wings at her back and carried a bow in her left hand; there was no doubt that she was the one who shot the arrows.

Yale could guess the reason for needing that many time to reach the village after shooting those arrows, but that scared him. If she needed that much time to reach the town with her speed, it meant that she was able to hit perfectly her targets from a scary distance.

Wyba was nervous at the start, but after the woman started to near them, she calmed down. Yale was still cautious, but his bloodline was also saying him that he shouldn’t have any fear.

The woman landed in front of Yale, and when Yale see her at that distance, he had no doubts about his bloodline reaction.

The woman had a silvery-white long hair of the same color as Wyba’s hair with a pair of wolf ears at her head, and Yale was able to see a wolf tail moving at her back, due to how the tail moved, she was very happy.

That woman was also a half-beast with a Frost Winged Wolf bloodline of the highest purity, that was the reason their bloodlines had a sense familiarity to her and didn’t consider her a threat.

Yale thought that believe she wasn’t a threat because they had the same bloodline was too naive, but after seeing the woman from near, he also decided to believe it.

That woman was too strong; Yale felt that she should still be a little weaker than Swordmad but not by much. Someone that powerful didn’t need to rely on tricks to kill or capture someone.

“I finally find both of you. I flew for a whole week before reaching this place. You don’t know how happy I was when I smelled two Frost Winged Wolf bloodlines in this area.”
