My NTR Harem
Chapter 79: Prey

All of them began to walk back towards the Chasm while carefully observing their surroundings, Lucian didn't want to go back just like that but there was no other choice for now.

' Sigh Why doesn't anything ever go right? People say that we receive previous life karma in our current lives, I wonder just what heinous crimes I commited. '

Lucian thought releasing a sigh, the atmosphere there felt ominous.

Contrary to their expectations, none of the red fiend came to attack them and after walking carefully for a while all of them were able to arrive near the Chasm.

" You go first. " The 1st burly man spoke, giving some space to move to the two guys.

The rich guy didn't waste any time as he hastily walked towards the Chasm, he had not expected to see something like that, and he was finally feeling fear of his life being in danger.

*BAM*

" Ouch ouch ouch What the fuck? Ughhh I can't go t- through this, aaah my nose. " The rich guy screamed as he held his nose while blood flowed down his face.

" What? But this was cleared a long time ago. " Both the burly man looked shocked as they touched the Chasm and they were all actually locked in there.

" B- But the strongest of this planet had fallen a long time ago, why is this Chasm back to its former phase? " The 2nd burly man mumbled, the surprise was evident on his face.

' Zero, what's going on? ' Lucian asked.

[ This kind of thing is only possible, even if the strongest had been killed a long time ago, only when someone in this race had gained strength equal or greater than the former strongest. ]

' What? But didn't you say before that they become stronger if humans die here, but I don't think that is the case. ' Lucian questioned.

[ That is only one possibility, but what if a single- ]

*ROOAAAAAARRRRRRRR*

Just then all of them heard a deafening roar coming from behind, they turned around collectively to look and were shocked to see a creature standing there that looked completely different from the one they had seen before.

It was almost six feet tall and its tail looked much more dangerous with length much longer than the others, even the red fiend's skin looked almost impenetrable.

The build of the red creature looked more like human's and it also seemed to possess more intelligence than the others of its kind, as it glared at the group of humans angrily.

Then Zero continued with her words:

[ If a single one of these creatures kills most of the others of its own race, then there is a high chance that its strength could grow and if its strength reaches that of the former strongest of their race then the Chasm would not be considered cleared. ]

' What? Then this means even if they kill one or two of the red creatures we won't be able to absorb the fog or awaken until that main boss is killed? ' Lucian pondered.

[ Exactly, be careful, that boss level monster had not killed all of the red creatures, its going to use some of them to launch sneak attack probably. ]

' Sigh Just my luck. When I think I am already at my worst, I'm reminded again, that there is something even low. ' Lucian rubbed his forehead, releasing a loud sigh.

" It's alright, he is still at the 1st evolution, if we fight together we will be able to defeat it without much trouble. " The 1st burly man spoke, as he took out two metal sticks and held them tightly.

[ That would have been the case if that was the only enemy here but there are others who could interrupt the fight and not to mention the two people who they need to protect while fighting. ]

' So this was what that creature was planning, hmmm now they would have to divide the forces.

One would have to fight that creature while the other have to protect those two. ' Lucian thought and by now the two burly man also understood what the creature had planned.

" Tch, bring these two with you and protect them at any cost. " The 1st burly man spoke then he added in a low voice: " And if the situation gets too troublesome, use the porters as bait. "

None of the others were able to hear it but Lucian heard it albeit barely, this was why they had brought them all, while all the porters were looking around in fear.

" All of you, follow closely behind me if you don't want to end up dying in their fight. " The 2nd burly man shouted, but the porters were in too bad of a shape.

Their legs lost all strength and they were having difficulty just standing, most of them fell to their knees and were praying and crying, all of this was too surreal for them all.

" Stop crying and follow me or I am going to kill you with my own hands. " The burly man shouted, but his words were having the opposite effect.

" N- Nooo I don't want to die pleaseeeee someone save me, daddddyyyyyy come here and save me. Uwaaaaaaaah " the rich guy was releasing the loudest cries, he fell down and was crying like a madman.

" Sigh, whoever stay here will die so just walk behind me. " The 2nd burly man released a sigh, then putting the rich guy on his shoulder he began to walk towards the pond along with the silent guy.

As the burly and silent man began to walk away Lucian was the first to follow behind him, then Jackie also followed hastily and only then the others came back to their senses and ran towards the pond.

[ It's easier to spot those creatures in this liquid, and with their low intelligence they are definitely going to attack from there. This is probably what this burly man is thinking, that might have actually happened if there was no leader. ]

' Great, if I move away from this giant man in black then those creatures will kill me and if I stay here I'll end up becoming a bait and die ultimately. ' Lucian thought, then the battle between the 1st burly man and the leader of the creatures finally began.

" What a cruel thing, so you killed your own kind to obtain this strength? " The burly man spoke, holding the metallic sticks close to his body.

*GRRRRR*

As if understanding his words, the red fiend growled loudly as it got ready to launch an attack, then releasing a loud roar it pounced on the burly man.

" Heh, you are still a mindless creature even if you evolve. "

*BANG*

The fiend's claws came down over the burly man's head who blocked it using the metal sticks, then he used his ability.

*KRRRRRR*

The burly man released electric current through his hands that became even stronger as they passed through the metallic sticks that looked ordinary at first, the fiend jumped back and its hands were shaking after receiving that shock.

*ROOOAAAAAAARRRRRRRR*

Releasing a roar again, the red fiend jumped forward it seemed that the creature was going to use the same attack again but the burly man hastily jumped away, just barely avoiding getting hit by the pointy tail.
