Holy Beast Saintess

41 Despair!

The leader of the group snickered as he gazed upon the tiger from afar after he retreated.

His body was covered in light injuries after clashing with the tiger during his time keeping him busy.

He was the most experienced in combat and knew when to attack and retreat.

Against this opponent he was sure that after taking down his mate the battles outcome had shifted in his favour.

He smirked revealing his sharp teeth as he nodded towards his group. "This one should be easy, nothing should be sweeter than the taste of despair of this couple as their lover is killed before their very eyes."

The group charged from different directions and the tiger became enraged upon hearing his words but remained vigilant.

He sent a swipe of his claw towards the 3rd rank wolf while the leader had not yet approached.

Blood sprayed from the body of the wolf who disregarded his injury as he grabbed onto the tigers front leg and bit down heavily.

The other wolves had taken this chance to grab onto his back legs and inflict some light injuries.

The tiger was struggling fiercely to be released from their grasp, as he flung his front leg the stronger wolf was sent flying backwards into a tree and let out a groan of pain.

During this instant the leader had already moved in for the kill, he opened his jaws and was ready to bite down onto the tigers exposed throat.

As he grew closer he felt his blood boiling and more excited until something flew past his face stopping his advances.

He grew confused and a complicated look was on his face as he watched the direction the object flew when suddenly a figure appeared in his blind spot.

Completely distracted in that moment he did not notice anyone's approach, a heavy hit landed onto his body shattering several bones and damaging his internal organs.

His body took a tumble and he heard a voice suddenly. "Ah, sorry! Sorry! I interrupted your little fight but it's so much fun to see the despair on the faces of those who think they have won a battle to have the situation completely change. Especially guys like you who would take pleasure in such terrible hobbies. Too bad, hey wolves look over there!"

The wolves were shocked as they quickly retreated from the tiger after seeing their leader heavily injured, the leader and the other wolves looked towards the direction the figure had looked towards.

The object that had attracted their leaders eyes that distracted him in the moment of his defeat had all fallen upon their eyes as light fell down upon the object making it even more clear.

The wolves began to shake, their eyes turned red and shrieked as they gazed upon the object. "Clan Leader!"

The object was precisely a severed head of their clan leader, they would recognise him at a glance!

The wolves began to feel deep panic within their hearts, their leader who they had all respected and looked towards had been killed in such a tragic way.

Wasn't their only enemy the tiger clan?

Wasn't this supposed to be an easy victory with not many losses?

Who is this new enemy?

Their leader had been taken down in one hit!

They felt really uneasy, they should have never started this war in the first place!

It was only started over a small kids duel, how did things come to this?

Numerous thoughts popped up in their heads as they began to hesitate and panic, their leader was down and could not instruct them or help.

The figure that had revealed themselves had appeared before their eyes was a white deer that didn't look as strong as their leader.

Their hope began to grow upon seeing the intruder was only a deer, their confidence began to return and the leader spoke. "What could you possibly do to change the result of this war? Foolish deer do not interfere in what does not concern you."

Until the deer spoke again. "Hey wolves, I'm sure you had some fun here earlier at the thought of tormenting those tigers. Looking at your faces, you think you still have some hope!"

The deer looked at them with disdain. "The rest of you wolves aren't even fit for me to act personally. Kill them."

She turned her body towards the wounded tigers, completely ignoring the surrounding wolves that were considering whether to attack and smiled. "Acting tiger clan leader and his companion I have heard very much about your brave and prideful spirit. Nice to finally meet you!"

Out from different directions a large group of different species of beasts charged towards the wounded wolves that had been in hesitating continue their assault.

The wolves fell into further despair after witnessing the strength and numbers of their new enemy.

The beasts numbers greatly outnumbered the wolves and the wolves had been injured and weakened after their battle.

Their enemies were all stronger than 2nd spirit gathering and the wolves had already been seperated during their previous fight.

It did not take long before the wolves were killed, they could only curse their lack of strength and wonder...

Who in the hell did we offend?!?!
