Chapter 147 The Heart Is Strong But The Body Is Weak [Part 2]

Thirteen allowed Tiona to join the battle because he needed all the help he could get. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

So when one of the nine Hyenas fell into the hole, the Black Snake decided to deal with it first, knowing that her Master couldn't leave his spot since he was the commander of their unit.

Right now, the greatest threat was the Rank 4 Hyena, who had realized that their encirclement was useless since they couldn't jump over the holes that littered the surrounding areas.

Because of this, it made a whooping sound, calling all the other Hyenas to gather at its location.

The moment the Hyenas gathered and blocked their only path of escape, the members of Thirteen's hunting party turned tense. If the smallest thing went wrong, they would have no place to run.

Even the Warsor Black Hound that was locked inside the cage could only whimper at the sight of the Hyenas, who once again started to laugh as if telling the Humans that they had seen through their little trick.

Thirteen, however, remained calm.

How could he possibly not consider his opponents' obvious move of targeting the only place that would allow them to reach their prey?

The Rank 4 Hyena wasn't in a hurry to attack. When its subordinates had gathered, it ordered them to attack the wagons that were blocking their way.

At that exact moment, Thirteen dipped the arrow in his hand, which was wrapped in a cloth soaked in oil, into the campfire, igniting it.

"Go, Giga!" Thirteen ordered.

Immediately, the Chad Skunk turned around and unleashed its full-powered stink spray that could reach up to thirty meters.

Giga Chad couldn't always unleash a spray with this range because it needed a lot of preparation.

At most, he could only unleash one of them every fifteen minutes as he built up pressure inside his body, allowing his stink spray to reach farther.

"Everyone close your eyes and don't open them until I tell you so!" Thirteen ordered.

Thirteen only waited those few seconds before he calmly released the flaming arrow in his hands before he, too, closed his eyes.

Cristopher, who no longer questioned his Master's orders, did as he was told and closed his eyes firmly.

Percival also acted quickly and closed his eyes.

The Trolls and Ogres did the same.

Even Adira, who was the strongest among them, obediently closed her eyes because she took Zion's words very seriously.

The only ones who didn't follow Thirteen's order right away were the Tigerkins whom he had just bought as slaves not long ago.

Even so, Thirteen didn't falter and fired two more arrows at the same location where his arrow landed earlier, creating a small wound that was only a centimeter wide.

But that was enough.

As if waiting for that moment, a Black Snake leaped out from the darkness and sank her fangs into the small wound that her Master had caused.

Tiona injected as much poison as she could the moment her fangs pierced through the monster's body.

With an angry roar, the Hyena shook its head left and right in an attempt to dislodge whatever was biting its throat.

Tiona released her bite and used that opportunity to be flung away from the Rank 4 Monster, whom she had successfully poisoned.

The Black Snake hardened her body, turning into a black steel pike that pierced the ground where she landed.

A moment later, she returned to her normal form and slithered away from her enemy into the darkness.

Thirteen breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Tiona was safe. However, his world momentarily spun, making him almost stagger.

He could feel something warm on his face, but he had no time to check his condition.

The battle was still going on, so he needed to endure the dizziness that assaulted him.

Embedding his bow on the ground, he used it as support to lean on.

He closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them again to look at the state of the other Hyenas, who had several arrows, and crossbow bolts sticking out of their body.

Due to them being disoriented and blinded, some of them fell into the pitfall traps around them.

Out of the eight Hyenas who had tried to attack their wagons, only five remained, including the Rank 4 Monster that had suffered from Thirteen's and Tiona's combination attack.

Giga Chad, who had regained his composure, moved closer to the battlefield and once again unleashed a stink spray, covering the surviving hyenas in a blazing inferno.

The battle raged on for a few minutes, as everyone attacked the Hyenas who were no longer laughing and were instead howling in pain.

In the midst of this battle, they didn't notice that their commander had long collapsed on the ground, with blood flowing out of his nose.

Thirteen had used all of his willpower to calculate the trajectory of his arrows, making them hit where he wanted.

Before he collapsed, he made sure to blind all the remaining Hyenas, which turned the battle in their favor.

However, while this was happening, the Warsor Black Hounds, who had been watching the battle from the side, made their move.

They circled around to the rear of the party before leveraging their agility and dexterity to jump over the holes in the ground and land dozens of meters away from the unconscious boy, whose blood was still flowing from his nose.
