The monster in front of him opened its huge mouth full of fangs and roared at Anya. The roar was like thousands of troops marching through the forest, making the earth tremble and making people's hearts stop beating.
The monster's face was covered with a thick layer of mycelium, and Cesare's appearance could not be seen at all. The monster's eyes were filled with hunger, and it was approaching him step by step.
The monster's eyes emitted a strange golden light from under the mycelium, like a scene that only appears in nightmares...
Breathing hard, catching up with Cesare has consumed all of Anya's strength. In order to catch up with the speed of the monster's limbs, Anya has tried her best. The large and small scars on her body come from various obstacles along the way.
The muscles on the girl's legs were trembling uncontrollably, and her body had reached its limit. Anya's face was pale, sweat and tears were mixed together and dripping on the ground. Her red hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to the girl's forehead. Very tired.
Her lips were chapped, and her lungs were burning with pain. The little finger and ring finger of her left hand were scratched by sharp claws. The terrible force twisted the two fingers, and when the skin and flesh were lifted, the almost broken phalanges were exposed.
The severe pain caused the girl to bite her lips and draw blood. She saw that the wound was stained with hyphae, trying to penetrate into the broken blood vessels and enter Anya's body. Anya naturally knows what it means to be infected with such a thing...
She took out the sword before the monster pounced again, endured the pain and pressed the sharp blade to the root of the ring finger and little finger of her left hand... With a strong force, the sharp blade was embedded in the girl's soft flesh. Stuck on hard bone.
The unimaginable pain made Anya fall to her knees. The girl was far from being as strong as she thought and cried out in pain. She almost fainted.
The blade of the sword was stuck in his fingers and he couldn't move up and down. Every time he used the slightest bit of strength, his nerves would feel heartbreaking pain to stop his crazy behavior.
Blood flowed more and more along the sword.
At this time, the monster also accelerated its speed and roared towards Anya again. Time was running out, and Anya directly pressed her left hand to the ground with her sword.
Listening to the sound of the sharp blade cutting through the skin and cutting the bones, the downward slashing blade seemed to be cutting into his own soul, and he was so painful that he could no longer even scream.
After suffering great psychological and physical trauma, Anya chopped off two slender fingers. The new cut was filled with only red blood. It seemed that it was just in time...
When the monster's claws were like sharp knives, they swung towards Anya's neck with a strong sound of wind.
Anya rolled on the ground to avoid it, but her physical exhaustion and wounds slowed her down a lot. Although she escaped another fatal blow, she fell into the mud awkwardly, and her head hit the tree trunk next to her. dizziness.
The crisis was not over yet. Anya quickly took off the bag she was carrying and skillfully took out a linen bandage and mixed it with her left hand several times. The originally white cloth was dyed scarlet in an instant.
Looking at the only three fingers left on her left hand, the weak girl smiled helplessly.
"You can only work harder in the future." As if to comfort himself, he raised his seriously injured left hand to his lips and kissed it gently. Then he forced his body to get up from the mud and pointed the sword blade at You. The monster Cesare became...
"I will not harm you Cesare...but I will be here with you until you wake up."
As the girl spoke, a kind smile slowly appeared on her face, as if she had forgotten the pain she had just experienced. She looked at Cesare, who had completely changed his face, and smiled lightly, just like before.
Naturally, the monster would not give Anya any response, only meaningless roars resounding through the forest. It pounces, never growing tired until its prey dies,
The fangs and claws were coming towards Anya one after another, but Anya could only dodge and block with the sword in her hand. The claws were swung more and more fiercely, and the sharp blade seemed powerful in the face of the opponent's merciless killing intent. It's ridiculous to be weak alone, and it doesn't overestimate its own capabilities.
Anya kept falling back under the monster's attack. The complex environment also restricted the girl's movements. From time to time, she would be blocked by tight trees and unable to dodge the monster's attack in time. She would instead use her sword to block it. The monster was not hurt at all, but it was shocked. My wrist hurts.
Although she blocked the claws and fangs again and again, the successive impacts made Anya feel that her internal organs were about to be shattered, and her steps became more and more clumsy with blood loss and fatigue. Confrontations are a matter of life and death.
Her heart was beating violently, and her body could no longer bear any more load. Her sword skills became slower and slower, her body began to stagger, her eyes began to blur, and there was no turning point again.
Anya's arms became heavy, as if they were tied to both sides of her body, and it became extremely difficult to lift the sword again.
She could no longer dodge any attacks... Her body had become numb and unconscious from extreme fatigue, while the monster's movements became more intense with nameless rage.
Its beard waved more and more fiercely, and its roar became louder and louder. For a moment, its claws seemed to be shining with fire, as if a menacing fire was about to burn Anya's body to ashes.
"Cesare..." The last of her strength was used to call the other person's name. Anya's body fell backwards, fell onto a big tree and slid down again.
Her body was no longer strong enough to support her to stand up again, and she could only watch helplessly as the monster approached her with its claws stretched out, unable to do anything.
The monster was pressing down on her, leaving Anya unable to escape.
He could no longer lift the sword, so he subconsciously raised his severely injured left hand to protect his face. The monster roughly grabbed his wrist and threw the girl's arm aside.
Seeing the terrifying fangs getting closer and closer to her face, Anya shrugged her shoulders and slowly closed her eyes, waiting for that moment to come.
This is pretty much the ending, and it shouldn't be too bad.
There seemed to be a gentle hand caressing his face, lifting the girl's red hair from her face.
Anya opened her eyes in confusion and saw the monster's face covered with mycelium right in front of her eyes. There was no gnawing or bloody tearing as expected...
Cesare...or rather the monster just climbed onto Anya's body quietly, looking at Anya's face, with a pair of familiar yet unfamiliar eyes that showed no emotion.
"What's wrong, Cesare-san...could it be that you can't bear to leave me?" Anya smiled sweetly. She wanted to hug the monster in front of her, but she didn't have any strength. It seemed that no matter what happened next, she was ready. .
Just looking at the monster like this, it was as if time had stopped at this moment, but Anya didn't care... She enjoyed this moment and any time she spent with Cesare. This is the path she chose. No matter what happens, Anya will never regret it.
Even though this is the final chapter of her life, the end of her adventure...
