Chapter 60

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

It was actually a short time, but to her, it seemed ten times longer. Asella’s ocean-colored pupils shook anxiously as she gazed out the window.

The moment when the surroundings were engulfed in breathtaking stillness was like entering the center of a storm.

“Kuaaaaah!”

With a monstrous wail that tore through the air, a huge demonic beast emerged. Asella hurriedly wrapped a blanket over Mariel’s head when the little girl tried to raise her head.

The sound alone ran a shiver down her spine.

“What’s that noise outside, Sister?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. Cover your ears. Do you understand?”

Somehow she managed to keep her composure, but Asella’s hands were trembling as she covered her sister with the blanket.

She was extremely tense, with a feeling that every tiny blood vessel in her body was shrinking.

The creature was in the shape of a massive wolf.

But its size was far greater than that of an ordinary wolf.

Its sharp fangs, if you could call them that, were sharp enough to tear off a human’s frail neck in one swift motion. Its claws, like hooks, were so large and sharp that they could split open a man’s stomach and rip out his internal organs in one stroke.

Even after fully revealing itself, the beast did not move.

It scanned the area, moving its head slowly as if searching for prey, and looked through the knights. The strange, bright yellow eyes shone even in the darkness.

At that moment, Asella’s eyes faltered anxiously.

She made eye contact with the beast.

Heup

Asella covered her mouth with her palm and swallowed a scream that was about to burst out.

Soon after, the chilling cry of the hungry beast shook the entire mountains.

Despite the ear-splitting roar, the creature’s gaze was fixed on Asella who was still inside the carriage.

‘No…’

It wasn’t…

It wasn’t her it was after…

‘Mariel!’

At her shocking realization, Asella gasped for air. The beast’s yellow eyes gleamed as he observed the small figure in the carriage.

It was then…

Asella’s thoughts were suddenly cut off. An unbelievable sight began to unfold before her eyes.

‘Impossible…’

The creature wasn’t alone.

Another pair of yellow eyes formed in the darkness, and another, and another in a row, forming a pack of demonic beasts…

“Shoot magic bullets! Secure your sight!”

With Ryzen’s shout, there was the sound of something being launched here and there. The bright light from the magic bullet erupted, and the area quickly became as bright as daylight.

However, the situation that came to light was not at all encouraging.

The knights were surrounded inside by what seemed to be more than a hundred of them, and at that horrific sight, Asella went completely pale.

‘How is this happening?’

Due to the nature of demonic beasts to usually move individually, it was extremely rare for them to appear in a pack.

Moreover, it was impossible for so many demonic beasts to appear all at once without it being orchestrated by someone else.

‘Who? Why on earth?’

“Quaaaar! Kiaaaaagh!”

The first demonic beast to appear roared with its sharp fangs displayed, and the others began to move in unison. The Benvito’s knights, who were formed in line, quickly entered the battle.

“Aim for the vital point! Cut down the neck or pierce the eye!”

The elite knights led by Ryzen defended the attack fairly well, but the demonic beasts were clever and strong. Above all, they were outnumbered, as three or four knights had to deal with a single demonic beast.

As the battle continued, the distance between the knights and the carriage gradually widened

“Stay close to the carriage! Protect Her Highness!”

Ryzen shouted as he sliced the throat of one of the demonic beasts.

However, no matter how many of them he cut, new ones appeared from god knows where. It seemed that the demonic beast was rushing in to seek out the strongest of the knights, and Ryzen stood there, never giving any openings.

Eventually, there was a gap.

“…!”

Asella raised her body immediately as she spotted the beast rushing toward them, keeping a watchful eye on her. As soon as she enveloped Mariel with her whole body, the beast came running furiously and plunged straight into the carriage.

There was a great impact on the carriage, and Asella’s body leapt up from the sofa and hit the opposite carriage wall hard.

“Ugh!”

“Sister! Sister!”

She could not bear listening to the screams that escaped her sister from the sudden pain, so Mariel called her desperately through the blanket that blocked her vision.

Asella let out a painful gasp and struggled to answer.

“It’s all right.”

“Huh, but Sister! Just now-“

“Mariel, I told you not to worry, didn’t I?”

Her tone was clear and determined, so Mariel couldn’t help but nod.

“Come this way and hide behind me.”

After Asella sent Mariel to the opposite corner of the wall under attack, she stood in front of it as if to block the way.

Bang!
