"Gah!" Herrick and Melor let out a sound! The battle between the three came with only one winner; the bison. The sword and hammer were shattered before the might of the horns.
"Herrick!" "Melor!" The two were sent flying across the room! That shocked everyone since Herrick and Melor were solid as their frontline. Even when faced with a large monster, they take the hit calmly. Despite this, it was startling because the two were rag-dolled out of there!
"Gabriel, Faelyn, Jack, move forward! Scarlet and Alfia, continue to chant! Sarah, heal them! I will go forward and draw it away!" Keith had no time to worry about them. He needed to reorganize them for a fight.
"On it!" Everyone made their move.
Keith didn't waver as he charged at the monster. He fired off lightning, blinding the bison's vision. However, the beast's hearing was sharp as it charged at Keith!
"!" That was precisely what Keith wanted as he twisted his body, dodging the horn by a hair's breadth! And when he did, a burst of fire, earth, and wind shot at the bison's side.
"Hmpf!" Leona fired an arrow at the bison's eyes, piercing it. One eye was blinded.
Time to add more. Keith placed his hand in the air. When he did this, the bison slowly slowed down! Its body was being pushed down to the ground. Without any delay, Keith sliced the bison's head. A deep sigh came out of his mouth as he rushed over to Herrick and Melor. While they fought, Sarah healed the two.
"How are you two?"
"Fine-gah!" That fine came with a mouthful of blood! Keith shook his head as he touched his chest. It was a slight touch, but it was enough.
"You have some cracked ribs." Cracking his ribs before made Keith understood.
"I-" "You do. Stop trying to hide it." Herrick wanted to retort, but the man shook his head. Talking was only going to hurt him more.
"We need to head back." We're close as well. They didn't need to take care of the boss to return to the lobby. They were close enough to return.
"Gabriel, you take care of Herrick. Jack, carry Melor."
"Understood." "Gotcha."
"Alfia, tell Saphir to tell the rest that we will come out. Have them hold the door down."
"What are you going to do?"
"I will be the one to open up the path. The rest are back up." Keith cracked his knuckles as he brought out a heavy sword. As they talked, monsters appeared before them. That was when Keith made his move, smashing them into paste!
"..." The others were speechless when they saw that. How strong are you? He was sending them flying!
...
"Ahh," Cadmus sipped on some tea as he relaxed in his chair, "This is the life."
"Indeed it is." Nephele sat beside him as she ate an orange.
"You two are way too comfortable." Diana groaned as she saw how the two acted. It was as if they were on a vacation.
"Don't want to hear that from you. You have also been reading on a chair these last few days." Cadmus saw her. Whenever Keith wasn't around or the others had other things to do, she would take the time to relax.
"But you two are acting like this every day." Her thing was on a time-to-time basis. Cadmus and Nephele tried their best to relax all the time.
"Also, this isn't really considered relaxing," Cadmus muttered.
"Eh?"
"You should see what Keith did at his home." Cadmus shook his head. This was low-tier.
"What did he do to his home?" The others became interested in his words. Whenever they were reminiscing, that meant something good happened. Cadmus always talked about the things he had gone through.
All of it was about Keith.
"For starters, he made a giant pergola in his backyard."
"He built one?" The great spirits and elf said in unison.
"It was so nice, and he also had parties and meetings there. William kept boasting about it to me." William had always annoyed him with this thing. And it wasn't just him, but to everyone he knew.
"Are you kidding me?" Nephele blinked, "I want something like that here!"
"I've been waiting for Keith to do something like that." Cadmus was eager for this as well. Having a pergola would definitely make Julius jealous.
"When will he do it?"
"Some other time." Cadmus was going to say something else when he heard something.
"Oh, they're home." They went to the door to greet them, only to make them stunned.
"What happened to you guys?" Herrick and Melor were being carried by Gabriel and Jack. This was a surprise to see since their team was so powerful.
"Got into a slight mishap. Can you get the nurse over here?" Keith quickly moved them over to the living room.
"Relax, I cracked a few ribs."
"Cracking a few ribs is still a problem." Keith shook his head. That was when the nurse entered.
"I have brought the nurse." Aidiun had brought in the nurse. She quickly walked over to the scene and got to work.
"..." Keith sighed deeply, feeling remorse about the situation.
