Chapter 28

Revenge

At present a group of children chattered while standing on the small hill overlooking the snow-covered plains.

"Are you sure we can kill that thing?"

Clod whispered, in trepidation. Of all of them he wanted it dead the most, but also feared it the most.

Ming gave him a healthy slap on the back, along with a reassuring smile. It helped to dispel his limbs, stiff from the fear. His companions hunted in the forest, killed wolves for sport and slew a Snow bear. These children did not make idle threats.

"Heh, if boss says kill it, then we kill it. Watch this... Oyez!"

Ming gave out a holler, towards the beast.

As the sound traveled across the desolate plains, the demon found the source of its troubles. With a feral roar it staggered onto its four limbs, and broke into a run that covered near forty feet in the blink of an eye. Like a healthy predator, it sprang into the air for a mighty jump, while sprinting across the plains.

Seeing the demon cover nearly half the distance on the plains in a flash, shocked the onlookers. The instigator slid from the front of the group, cowering behind Chu.

The spectators trembled like jelly, as their legs became rooted to the ground. Witnessing the unleashed power for the first time, the effect battered their hearts.

Paralyzed, they could only bear witness to the scene.

Midway into the jump the demon froze, and doubled up as if having cramps, rolling up like a shrimp. With a deafening howl that dwindled into a whimper, the curled body suddenly sprang open in the air like a flat board, stretching and skimming in the air.

Red liquid containing dark solid matter, jettisoned out from its rear like a sputtering rocket. The beast then fell flat on the snow, completely sprawled out in exhaustion. Only the whimpers, that sounded like a sobbing child could barely be heard. The jaws of the children dropped to the ground.

"Holy crap. what was that!"

"Damn!"

"Urggh!"

Amidst the comments, the girls appeared considerate enough to look away from the scene thus preserving their dignity. The boys however, appeared totally engrossed in the spectacle, not willing to miss a single second.

Gone was any inkling of fear from their minds. Presently the consensus of the spectators varied between shock and pity for the creature.

'Who the heck would want to be beaten down, to die in such a fashion.'

The beast seemed devoid of energy, as it trembled to raise its upper body of the snow. Like a feeble old man shaking to support its weight, it lifted and leaned on one forearm elbow as it stared at them. The other front arm was now shaking as it began to raise its upper body.

One hand was extended as the effort showed in it shaking up and down. The terrible claws curved as it pointed towards them. Even as a demon, the universal feeling of hate could be recognized spewing from its teary eyes.

Those once proud and dominant eyes were now hatefully boring into Chu's.

"Damn!
