The Most Satisfied Reincarnate

Chapter 124 - I'm Not Strong Enough



But he felt that the thrust of his sword had not yet penetrated the deepest point of the Husk Wolf's mouth he was attacking.

When Leona saw Bastian's expression, she understood and quickly chanted a spell, pierced the Husk Wolf's head with a giant ice sword. "Honey, are you okay?"

Bastian pulled out his sword from the Husk Wolf's mouth; even the mouth of this Husk Wolf can swallow half of its body, "That's terrible. "It was only at this time that he realized the enormous size of the Husk Wolf.

Bastian then looked at the Husk Wolf he had attacked earlier to make a path and found that their numbers had not decreased, with only a few scratches on their bodies.

"Tch," Bastian clenched his fists and gritted his teeth; he then glanced at his wife, "Let's run; I found a way out."

"Mmm." Leona nodded; while they were talking, strangely, no Husk Wolf had attacked them.

All Husk Wolves seemed to be pulling away in fear; this could be seen from how they kept their distance. 

Bastian then scanned the group of Husk Wolves in front of him and found a gap enough for the two of them to run away. He gripped his sword tightly as he approached and held his wife's hand.

"Swordsmen skill: Power boost!" Bastian muttered, all the muscles in his body swelling out. His body proportion also increased slightly; he then picked up Leona and started running.

When he managed to reach the gap, Bastian realized something strange. All the Husk Wolves did not attack him and Leona; they just looked at him angrily without moving the slightest.

Leona, who realized this already had a bad feeling, she chanted a spell and made an ice needle wrapped around her and Bastian.

"We did it!" Bastian shouted excitedly as they managed to get past the Husk Wolf pack; he looked back and found that the Husk Wolves were just staring at him, "But this is strange, don't you think so?" 

Bastian glanced at his wife and found that her expression had become serious, "Yeah, this is very strange; stay alert for the dangers ahead."

* howl *

Right after Leona said that, all the Husk Wolves who had been quiet suddenly turned their heads upwards and let out a roar.

Hearing this roar, a loud sound was heard like something big was moving between the trees. "Watch out," Leona shouted.

Bastian has noticed something strange from earlier, but he is still hesitating. When Leona gives a warning, he immediately activates his swordsmen skill.

"Swordsman skill: 3rd Eye." By activating this skill, all Bastian's visibility is increased, like having a third eye. This gives certainty the ability to see fast objects slowly.

He saw a giant wolf; even this wolf's size could not be compared to the Husk Wolf that surrounded them.

This wolf came in front of him and was now running very fast from a distance. It was seen that every time it walked, a thorn came out of its body and stuck into the surrounding ground, causing the ground where the thorn was embedded to become hollow.

There he is, the creature I saw last night. Thought Bastian.

Seeing this creature, Bastian no longer hesitates to give all his abilities, "Honey, help me to protect in front, I will try something." Shouted Bastian while lowering his body, making Leona, who was carried, also lowered her head.

The two of them couldn't stop their steps all of a sudden because if one stopped, then the one that stopped would make the wind momentum that had been gathered unstable. 

If the momentum is unstable, his body will automatically fall to the ground, leaving the defences wide open.

Not to mention the Husk Wolves is waiting for this golden opportunity to devour them.

"Okay," Leona then chanted a spell and grabbed Bastian's chest, "Advance Spell: Reinforce", murmured Leona.

An invisible barrier slowly wrapped around Bastian's body. This barrier looks stronger than the barrier he was chant about before. 

But this barrier seems to only protect Bastian as its main object, while Leona, who is on Bastian's back, does not get the same resistance, "It okay, as long as you can hold it, I won't fall." Leona kisses Bastian's stump as a guarantee to relieve his worries.

Hearing this, Bastian felt relieved; he accelerated his steps and finally arrived at the giant wolf.

When compared to an elephant, Bastian's body size while carrying Leona only up to the elephant's trunk.

Just like what he remembered last night, the wolf was very big; he could only see the bottom neck of the wolf and the rest was covered by the shadow of the sun.

But the view suddenly changed when he realized there was a giant claw that wanted to tear him apart. He ended up tilting his body to the side and was only hit by a finger from the claw.

* clang *

Leona's barrier starts to activate, proving that this barrier is stronger than the wolf attack. Good job, honey, Bastian praises in his mind. 

Meanwhile, by the time Leona saw this, she was rendered speechless.

"Honey, isn't this beast too weak?" Leona then forcibly dropped from Bastian's back and landed unscathed on the ground. "Let me check it."

The ice needles surrounding the two of them disappeared. Leona then turned around and chanted a new spell while pointing both hands towards the giant wolf. " Advance spell: Elemental burst. "

Unlike the wizard's built-in skills, which require waiting for the process of creating an image from the caster, using this spell can skip this stage and immediately attack the target, but it also consumes more energy.

* swoosh *

A giant ice spear formed in the air instantly behind Leona. This spear was the same size as the Husk Wolf body size.

This spear rushed towards the giant wolf and pierced its rear instantly.

* howl *

The screams of this giant wolf were louder than the screams of the Husk Wolf packs. This giant wolf also spit out several needles that were on its back in all directions

* clang * * clang *

Bastian, who stopped in his tracks, was worried about seeing his wife's action but now opened his mouth in surprise. The barrier given by his wife continued to sound against all the giant thorns that attacked him.

Meanwhile, the spikes heading towards Leona all stopped mid-air before finally freezing and shattering. A transparent ice barrier was revealed, protecting her body from these thorns attack.

The giant wolf that was attacked by Leona immediately died on the spot after howling in pain. The pack of Husk Wolf who saw this howled loudly before they finally ran in all directions.

"What ..." This time, Bastian, who was astonished. The Husk Wolf, who was previously fearless and even made it difficult for both of them, this time has disappeared only with the death of this wolf.

"My guess is right," Leona, who had witnessed this, now turned around while looking at Bastian, "The giant beast was named Husk King; this beast is known because for guarding a plant which use to become a wizard."

Leona paused for a moment, "And also, the Husk King is a leader from Husk Wolf. Basically , this information only knows to upper echleon, so there is some risk to bear if this spread out." Bastian was blinked in surprise at this information.

Bastian opens his mouth but doesn't know what to say, so he chooses to keep quiet and listen further.

Looking at her husband exspression, Leona spoke worriedly."No matter what, I don't hide any secret from you."  Leona didn't mean to hide this from her husband; it's just that she never thought of the possibility of meeting this beast.

"No need to tell me twice, I understand. Let's continue. " Even though Bastian said that it seemed that his expression was disappointed with himself.

Leona, who saw this felt conflicted. She knew that her husband was not yet strong enough to carry the weight of this information.

...

They continued walking without anyone speaking. It seems like Bastian is still mentally affected by knowing how weak he is. Meanwhile, Leona is confused about which words should she used to encourage her husband.

If she said 'I'm always with you, no matter what', her husband would have understood that she was just covering up the fact that he was weak; meanwhile, if she allowed this continued, she was afraid their relationship would continue like this, without communication.

"Ho-"

"There's no need to talk about anything." Before Leona continuing her words, Bastian cut off and immediately hugged her, "No need to comfort me again, it's just, some times, I feel annoyed with myself."

Her expression softened, and she hugged her husband back when she heard this while caressing his hair, "You are already great honey, you only need enough time for meditation."

Hearing this, Bastian's eyes regained their enthusiasm, "Yeah, lately, we are too busy with kingdom affairs; it looks like we have to take leave after this." Bastian chuckled before they returned to their normal conversation.
