Chapter 147: V2 Ch 10. A village in distress

We walked on the river’s coast.

I wondered if we will actually be able to walk into a village or any house. I already feel that all of my lifeforce was squeezed out these days. I barely can think of anything but tea. If this goes on I might turn into a madwoman and start chasing after Xera with a spear while thinking that she is a tealeaf or a teapot.

‘AWUUU’

“Not good.” Xera broke off a large branch, or better say a log. I took the stiletto.

“Can you cover my back?” (X)

“Keep them at distance and I will deal with the ones who are close.” A thought to just leave her here and run away with Lilith also visited my brain but I doubt that Lilith won’t hold a grudge against me if I just abandon the ungrateful knight.

A group of wolves appeared but they looked… weird? There is a horn on their heads.

“Stormwolves…” Xera murmured something.

Before I made a unicorn or a rhinoceros joke, one of the wolves rushed at us but Xera hit it with her log. I stood on the same spot to give her backup. The other wolves tried surrounding us but I was ready to attack them as well.

Soon another daring wolf attacked and managed to bite me. Judging by its painful expression it broke some of its teeth. Another wolf tried to aim for my neck but its howl of pain made the other beasts understand that I am much harder target than they expected.

Meanwhile, Xera was protecting Lilith who got caught between our backs. Every stormwolf that dared jumping at Xera was launched like with a baseball bat.

I decided to show off how great and cool I am and leaped at the wolves who grouped in front of the softer but tendinous target. I stabbed each wolf in a matter of seconds and by the time the first wolf fell down I finished stabbing the last of them. Well, I stabbed four wolves. There were that many…

“Show off. If you could’ve done that then why did you wait?” (X)

“You are welcome.” I turned away and continued down the current.

The tension between us was growing. Well, tension between me and Xera to be exact.

I wanted to finally escape and relax without having to talk to her. It would be even better if I could just part my ways with her and never remember.

While I was deep in my thoughts I picked up something on one of my radars. It was a repeating movement somewhere above the ground. I hurried there.

“Where are you running? Hey, I can’t keep up!” Lilith was calling from behind. I looked back at her and oh my… In a minute she caught up with me.

“Ha, ha, ha… Why… were… you… running…?” She was trying to catch her breath.

“I saw something in front, it might be related to the civilization!”

“Yes, great. Remember that you are not alone here.” (X)

I remembered that and did not run again.

In a few hundred meters the river was turning and when we walked around the trees that blocked the view something showed up.

“Is that a windmill?”

“Yes, we finally found a village!” Lilith was happy and even Xera smiled.

Soon we approached the windmill and as it turns out, the windmill is not abandoned. There are no people inside but if we follow a trail we should find a village.

We hurried up and in ten minutes a group of buildings appeared in front of us. I wanted to lie down in a bed as soon as possible.

When we finally arrived to the village we saw no one. There were no people, not a single soul.

“What the hell? Where did all those people disappear?” (X)

I approached a door and tried opening it. The door was closed. I applied a bit of a force to it and opened it with my leg. The door fell down.

“NOOOOOOOOOO!!!” A shout came out of inside and I rushed in. Inside of the house I saw a family, each of the people was holding a knife, a pitchfork or something like that. The people looked at me in terror but soon they calmed down a bit.

“What happened?!” Lilith and Xera rushed in as well.

“Indeed, can you explain what happened to the village?” I asked the family.

“Y-yes, my lady. The village is frequently attacked by a band of orcs. They steal our cattle, r* our women and kill everyone whom they can’t take. We asked for help but nobody came.” The explanation soon turned into a plea.

“Do you have any swords? I am one of the Rose Knights and can help you.” Xera stepped forward.

“Yes! Yes, thank you!” The family was moved to tears. By the time we walked out of the house the villagers all swarmed to the house.

“Dear people, you can calm down. We might not look much but we will be able to help you. Can you find a couple of good swords and some potions?” The swords are for Xera while the potions are my guess. If they can help her then it is good. Yes, right, I want her to succeed. I don’t want to risk blowing up just to help her.

The villagers brought a somewhat good sword and one eaten by rust. There are some health potions and an entire cup worth of mana potions. Lilith was in delight when she was presented a mana potion.

I want to make sure that we can meet the orcs before they reach the village so I walked a bit away from it. That is when I saw a group of people on a hill.
