An Extra’s POV Chapter 205 Dead Of Night [Pt 2]

Chapter 205 Dead Of Night [Pt 2]

~WHOOSH!~

The caravan was attacked by projectiles a few minutes after Ralyks mentioned the presence of enemy forces in the distance.

The dense cluster of trees in the distance danced back and forth, as if waving at the caravan as the several projectiles charged forth.

The gleaming rain of enchanted arrows descended upon the carriage from the sky.

Their number was overwhelming, and the strength within each arrow was enough to kill a man.

It was also safe to assume they were poisoned as well.

Normally, upon seeing so many attacks charging at a caravan full of valuables, the group was meant to stop, or even turn back as quickly as possible.

Defensive measures ought to be put in place as a result of the imminent threat approaching.

However, none of that was the case.

The group kept advancing as if there was nothing wrong.

As the winds whistled, the uncountable arrows nearing their targets with absolute precision, a sudden glow emerged.

It covered the entirety of the caravan.

~VWUUUM!~

In a single second, a bright golden light illuminated everything within range.

The drivers, the goods, and every single person and thing around the caravan was shrouded by the mysterious golden light.

As soon as the glowing arrows met and touched this barrier, they disintegrated into dust.

The night breeze carried the dust particles away, leaving the cheering caravan members roaring in victory and excitement.

They were assured that, as long as the defensive measures were active, they would be safe.

Yuri in particular seemed to have a wide grin as she stood on top of a carriage’s roof.

She had seen everything play out, and now she couldn’t resist the allure of what came next.

“Thank you, Sir Ralyks! Please keep protecting everyone while I take care of everything else!”

With a wide grin, she leaped from her position, leaving the golden barrier of light of her own volition.

~WHOOSH!~

Her destination was clear.

‘I’ll show those fools who dared to attack our caravan! I’ll show all of them!’

Her body flickered with bright bursts of energy, and her speed increased tremendously.

A long blade appeared out of thin air, and she grasped it in no time at all.

Her eyes glowed very brightly, causing her to easily sae through the veil of darkness and cover the distance she had with her enemies through sight alone.

In essence; [Night Vision] and [Farsight].

A second volley of arrows flew into the air, raining down on the caravan.

Yuri ignored them, considering the fact that she knew they couldn’t break that defense no matter how hard they tried.

“Hehehe!” Cackles from Yuri echoed into the air as she advanced past the several trees.

Everything became a blur as she advanced with power.

And then—

~WHOOSH~

A projectile lunged at her, but she easily deflected it by swinging her sword.

Several more appeared, but Yuri made short work of them just as easily.

Her expert swings caused each weapon to be shredded into bits before they could even reach a few inches close to her body.

‘Ranged fighters, eh? I’m guessing you won’t do well in a one-on-one!’

She could already see the group that was responsible as they stood in a cluster.

She brandished her trusty Enchanted Weapon, and it began to shine brightly.

It was ready for some bloodshed.

Not long after, Yuri appeared in the clearing, where she met a few dozen men who could barely even gasp as soon as her silhouette made an appearance before them.

She was so fast that they hadn’t even registered her presence.

‘Just about fifty? I thought they’d be more considering the arrows. Or did they use Magic to duplicate them?’

Either way… Yuri didn’t care.

They were all going to meet their end here anyway.

“Huu…” Her muscles bulged as soon as she took a deep breath, and her eyes focused on the men before her as a wild bird would stare at prey.

There was no mercy or hesitation to be found in her eyes.

Just a resolute decision to slaughter.

~VWUSH!~

In swift motion, she twisted her body and spun in the air, slicing through the night wind… and flesh.

Blood sprayed all around her, as fountains rose into the sky.

This eruption of crimson liquid sparkles under the glow of her blade, and with each strike she made, sparks of energy would electrify the air.

She moved from prey to prey, slicing off their arms and legs, with their heads following after, in what seemed like a single strike.

By the time she was done with nearly half of them, the others realized what was happening.

Or… almost.

They could only see a blur—a dangerous silhouette—killing their comrades, and they knew they were next.

In attempts of desperation, they opted to cast Spells and bombard this shadow-like demon with their combined might.

Unfortunately for them…

~SWISH!~

Before they could even get a word out, their heads were already flying in the air.

Each man could see the head of his comrade ascending as his own head soon joined.

It was only at that point, as they descended into death, that they could see the entity that wreaked such havoc and caused such carnage.

She was nothing more than a young woman.

“E-eh…?” They must have thought as everything in their mind went blank.

Death welcomed them into its embrace, and they were happy to escape the horrors of fear that Yuri offered.

With all the bodies plopping to the ground, she stood above all of them and gave a heavy sigh.

“Huuu…”

Her cold eyes watched the sticky blood cling to their multilateral bodies, and she watched the terror stricken expressions that decorated all the severed heads.

She felt nothing like remorse or pity for the fools who dared to defy her family.

Only purpose filled her blood-stained face.

“Subjugation complete.”

With those words echoing in the air, she returned to the caravan, and into the carriage that Ralyks sat in.

Upon seeing his imposing mask of darkness, and his completely shady demeanor, Yuri couldn’t help but grin with happiness.

“Hey, Sir Ralyks… you won’t believe what just happened!”

Thanks for reading!

Yuri is best girl for me… because she can do whatever it takes to protect me (if I’m her family).

Hehe…
