I am a Second Female Lead
Chapter 30: 12. Jaclyn Eisner

Hunter wasn't able to see properly the sneak attacked of one of the underlings of Lance toward Sheri.

Meanwhile, upon eliminating her fierce enemy Sheri staggered to stand up, she tried, but she can't anymore and gradually falls to her knees and stays there for a while.

On the other side. It was a fierce battle between Lance and Hunter. When Lance perceived the underlings of Hunter approaching, He releases Hunter and runs. He was chased by Hunter's men. Hunter transforms instantly and went toward Sheri but Sheri is already bathing in blood while lying on the ground.

Hunter was staggered. He slowly carries Sheri and runs toward the village. While running Sheri looked at the anxious face of Hunter. She slowly reaches his face, but she couldn't touch it. Sheri's vision is getting darker and darker.

Hunter arrived in the village and the people in the village was shocked when they saw Hunter carrying a wounded Sheri. The elder immediately open the door when he hears the commotion and saw Hunter running toward the inside.

Hunter was so horrified when he looked at Sheri. He doesn't know what to do. The moment he gently put her in the bed. The elder came and check on Sheri but Sheri stops breathing. Making Hunter was uproar in rage and sorrow.

He grips her body and tries to wake her up.

"If you wake up, I will give you this pendant. Please wake up." Hunter cried uncontrollably while begging Sheri but Sheri is long gone.

Hunter shouts and wept while clinging to Sheri's body. He tenderly embraced her and gently kisses her lips. He stayed there crying for how many countless hours while carrying the lifeless body of Sheri. When Sheri opened her eyes, and she was drifting to the unknown. She looked around and it was so dark. She keeps on running and seeking a light but there is none. Suddenly she recognized Hunter's voice. She followed that voice and surely she saw him.

She was shocked when she saw him. He was exhausted and bathing in blood. She can see injuries all over his body. Sheri was still.

"What is going on?" Sheri asked.

"Hunter, wait. Hunter" Shouts Sheri. But Hunter just keeps on walking.

She runs toward him and touched him, but her hand went through his body. She was shocked. The system didn't inform her that she's dead.

She keeps on following him after a while she saw he is walking toward the village of Lance. He seems he didn't care if he is injured. Lance, on the other hand, signals his men to not interfere with their fights. They allow Hunter in and like a mad man he attacked Lance.

He just keeps on striking it doesn't matter how much he was bitten or bruised or even wounded he still keeps on assaulting. Sheri put her hand on her mouth. She can see his eyes were lifeless only a killing intent can be seen.

At the end of the fierce battle, she saw Hunter falls at the hand of Lance. He was gripped by his neck and oozing with blood. Sheri panicked and run toward him. Wanting to hold him, wanting to at least help him.

"Why?" Sheri's heart is breaking when looking at him.

"Why are you doing this get-up Hunter" Sheri looked at the eyes of Hunter screaming telling him to get up. When Hunter opened his eyes, he seems to look straight into Sheri's eyes.

Sheri was crying her heart out. Her heart for this man is in pain. Even though she didn't reveal it to him but the way he cherished her for the previous months and the way he supported her makes her heart moved.

Sheri saw Hunter's eyes looking at her crying. Hunter shifted into human and smiled at her, he lifts his hand toward her face wanting to touch but it went through her.

She keeps on begging and asking anyone for help but no one came. While crying, she felt a hand on her cheek. She looked up and saw Hunter.

She got up from her position and embraces him. Hunter also embraced her.

She was crying so hard but Hunter is trying to calm her down.

"Shh everything is alright," Hunter said gently.

Sheri was in so much agony that she can't restrain from crying. Hunter wiped the tears of Sheri when she gently pulled her self at the embrace of Hunter she looked tenderly at him. But Hunter is starting vanishing. He looked affectionately at Sheri.

"I will replace you". Hunter said toward her.

"No hunter stay, Don't leave me." Sheri tearfully said.

But all she can merely hear is.

"I will replace you." Hunter softly said

Hunter's soul slowly vanished in the air leaving Sheri alone. Sheri was in so much pain that she can't stop crying.

Sheri stayed in her position looking at Hunter's body being picked up by his subordinates and buried him next to her tomb. On the tomb she saw the pendant that she's looking for. It is engraved in her tomb. After the incident that Hunter was killed by Lance.

The tiger race become so ambitious that they start to rule the whole continent.

Meantime the various races came together with the leopard's race lead by Klans. They plan their attacked with the help of Sheri's plan that she formulated a long time ago.

One day they attacked the tiger race resulting in the tiger race lost many of its people. The same with other races. On the end, they made a patched and vow that they will respect each other territory. It is to be expected. The female lead did the peace treaty.

While looking at what is happening. Sheri wanted to punch someone. She really hated the word female lead.

Sheri has been wandering to the whole content for about a year until she felt lighted and saw her self in the space and hear the mechanical voice speak again.

"Host we apologized for taking as long to take you back. I was supposed to inform you about that your time but our data is being invaded by a bug. And also some of our data has been corrupt. Out of the blue, something happened that we were trying fixing all the issues." The system said.

"I thought I would stay there forever but how did a bug intervene in the story line? Sheri asked.

"Our leading experts were looking keenly at it because this never happened. But since its neither your fault nor our fault that the storyline of this world was twisted we are nevertheless forwarding you to your world and since its what the bug has caused you to die in this mission we consider your mission accomplished. "

Sheri was bewildered.

"Huh oh ok," Sheri didn't argue.

"All your acquired knowledge will be retained in you and all the memories and feelings will be wiped out. Enjoy host." the mechanical voice speaks.

Sheri wanted to hold on to her memory about Hunter, but she felt lifted and when she opened her eyes she saw herself in her room again at her own world.
