“RROOAAAARRR!!”
*Pierce*
Thyra finally pierced the heart of the Fifth Wolf and sighed in relief. Fighting five 4 Star Wolves at the same time wasn’t very hard, however, it was exhausting.
She wasn’t a fighter.
She isn’t used to long fights, she just goes and kills her opponents.
The process is just that simple.
Therefore, she fell short on the Stamina part.
Thyra then exhaled deeply and turned around to see how Nux was doing.
She might be a little tired, however, it wasn’t to the point where she couldn’t help Nux. However, when she turned around, she didn’t see a hard fight as she had expected.
She only saw Nux sitting on top of Ferocious Gale Wolf’s body, which was covered with scars and cuts, with a smile on his face.
“How long have you been watching me for?” Thyra questioned.
“Not too long, just from the part where you killed the 4th wolf.”
“…”
Thyra stayed silent.
‘So he is saying that he defeated a 5-Star Beast, 1 minute earlier than me, who was fighting with just a few 4-Star beasts? And that was when I started first?
Fucking monster…’ Thyra cursed in her head.
“Thyra, trust me when I say it, you looked unbearably hot when your blue eyes shined in determination and you killed those wolves.”
Suddenly, Nux complemented with a smile on his face and hearing it, a small blush appeared on Thyra’s face.
Nux’s smile widened when he saw it.
‘She’s too cute.’
He has been observing Thyra for a while now, she has two forms, one, her assassin form, a cold expressionless face that looked at everything neutrally.
That was the face she had when she turned around after killing those wolves,
The other is her being all shy and stuttering, lowering her head with a read face and avoiding eye contact.
Something completely opposite to the normal her.
And Nux finds this transition very adorable.
Thyra, who noticed Nux’s smile knew he was teasing her, she then looked around and tried to change the topic.
“I can’t believe you defeated a 5-Star Beast so easily, it is stronger than an Expert Stage Cultivator, you know.”
Suddenly, a proud look appeared on Nux’s face as he answered,
“It seems I am stronger than an Expert Stage Cultivator now.”
“Indeed.” Thyra nodded.
She was really surprised, however, she then recalled what Felberta said and shook her head.
‘Nux is an anomaly, don’t use logic on him.’
Thyra knew those words weren’t wrong, however, she was even surer about it now.
“Actually, defeating this Wolf was pretty simple. I didn’t even use my Skills, well, I did, but I am sure I don’t need to use them.”
Then, Nux muttered and Thyra stopped thinking.
She just glanced at Nux with a blank look on her face.
“Dealing with a Beast, that is stronger than an Expert Stage Cultivator, is easy?” She questioned in her usual, cold tone.
“Mhm, it is easier than I thought.” Nux nodded.
‘Fucking monster.’
Thyra cursed in her head again.
Suddenly, she narrowed her eyes as she glanced at Nux, then, she grabbed his hand and shook her head.
“Don’t.”
“What? I haven’t even done anything…” Nux frowned.
“We are not going inside the forbidden zone.” Thyra shook her head and spoke with a serious look on her face.
“We won’t go that deep, we will just take a quick pee-”
“No, we are not going inside the Forbidden Zone, no matter what.” Thyra shook her head.
No matter what, she won’t change her thoughts about this matter.
“Why though…”
“It is called the Forbidden Zone for a reason, Nux. I know you want to try and fight against a 6 Star Beast, however, we still don’t have any information about the Forbidden Zone.
For all we know, there might be a 7 Star Beast inside.”
“…”
Nux turned silent.
He might have a chance against a 6 Star Beast, however, against a 7 Star Beast, he was sure that he would die.
Then, he glanced at Thyra who was looking at him with a serious look on her face and then, he sighed.
“Alright, I won’t go in…”
“Good.” Thyra smiled.
“You won’t stop me from hunting other 5-Star beasts though, will you?” Nux questioned with a smile.
Thyra then lowered her head and glanced at the wolf’s body that was under Nux. A sigh escaped her mouth before she chuckled dryly,
“If you can overpower them like this in a matter of minutes, then I have no reason to stop you. Of course, I will be coming with you though…
5 Star Beasts usually move around with their subordinates, I can deal with small fries while you kill the bigger ones.”
Thyra proposed with a smile on her face.
Heh, she would be a fool to lose such a golden opportunity.
“Sounds like a plan to me.” Nux nodded with a smile.
Suddenly, Thyra extended her hands towards Nux’s and smiled.
Nux frowned, however, soon, he sighed and then picked her up like a princess.
Thyra’s smile widened, she then snuggled close to Nux and Nux ran towards his next target.
This visit to the Bloodhill wilderness was a lot smoother and chiller than Nux’s last one.
He, his women, and his subordinates killed lots of beasts and gained lots of points, 2 days later, all other assassins appeared as well and with 50 assassins and those parties he had created, along with the beasts he was killing,
Nux’s system point count increased at a scary rate.
In just 2 weeks, he had already accumulated System Points required, no, more than required.
Then, he gathered everyone together and ended this hunting mission.
The journey back was a lot smoother, the assassins were ordered to rush back as soon as possible, this time, Nux moved with his woman, talking while they ran, sometime, he carried Skyla on his back as she requested.
Of course, the other girls requested the same as well.
Even Felberta.
Nux did not deny and the blissful journey continued for 5 days.
5 days later, all of them were back inside the Royal Capital.
