The cursed rabbit made eye contact with me and rushed straight towards me.

It was not simply because I threw a javelin at her and hit her, but because my hands were somewhat empty from throwing my favorite bottle, I guess it was because I judged myself to be the weakest part of the siege network.

Of course, there was Emma riding with me, but I would prioritize protecting myself rather than chasing her.

So, it could be said that it was the best decision for her, but…

At the same time, it was also a judgment that overlooked the fact that the trap she was caught in was already the worst situation for her.

Just before jumping, her long white ears twitched to warn her owner.

Something large and sharp is tearing the air and flying towards her.

In order to narrowly avoid being hit on the head by a spinning ax blade, she leans back from jumping and falls to the ground.

The female warrior who had thrown the ax clicked her tongue at the missed attack, but pulled the sword from her waist and ran away.

Then, he put that fierce force on the blade of his sword and struck down at the enemy who had not yet stood up.

The rabbit, cursed to receive that downward slash, crosses its two swords to receive it.

The sound of metal colliding sharply cuts through the forest air, sparks fly, and the struggle of strength continues as they gnaw at each other.

However, the rivalry did not last long.

None of us could understand, let alone read, the magical movement of those two swords in her hands.

It was a legacy that only she, who had owned those swords for hundreds of years and filled their movements with red, could own.

That’s why the female warriors of this land had no regrets about fighting swords with cursed beings.

When the sword tried to slip out of her hand through an incomprehensible process, she let it go without any hesitation and just rolled back.

“Anyway, every time this happens…”

At best, all I could do was briefly mumble my dissatisfaction with the incomprehensible swordsmanship.

The rabbit’s red eyes blink blankly for a moment at that vain victory.

Like players who pull the rope as hard as they can in tug-of-war, but wonder when the opponent pulling against them only pulls the rope everywhere.

And when the rope he had pulled so hard ended up wrapping around him and tying him up, he showed his teeth and became angry.

The mysterious symbols carved on the blade by the druid girl radiated light the moment the female warrior’s weapon was handed over to the enemy, shooting out a blinding flash of light at the enemy.

When her blood-soaked, ruby-red eyes hid behind her closed eyelids to avoid the flash, the shadow of the night hunter, which even the white ears of the rabbit could not detect, fell upon her.

“…I don’t want to mention that dirty blood, but…”

Luvia revealed her vampire teeth and claws, covered in blood and shadow, and bit and scratched the rabbit’s ear, which had not yet completely healed, as if trying to rip it off.

More blood was mixed into the dark red shimmer.

However, even as it screamed in pain, the body of the murderous demon that had lived for hundreds of years immediately responded to the surprise attack.

In an instant, he reversed his sword and grabbed it, climbed onto his back and neck, and stabbed the enemy who was trying to tear him apart through the heart.

Two swords passed sharply across Luvia’s chest as she barely managed to lean back.

The rabbit, shaking off Luvia, turned its body to face her with its blazing red gaze, and at the same time, crossed its two swords and charged forward.

The swords, which overlapped in the shape of a tilted cross, were about to be swung precisely at Luvia’s neck before she even landed.

However, before the two sword blades can separate from each other, Yongahyeong’s sword intervenes between them and blocks them.

While the swords interlocked and refused to let go, Luvia covered her wounds with a shadow and brushed them off and raised her claws forward again, while the female warrior pulled out the ax that was stuck in the ground and grabbed it again.

Then I ride on my ema and pass by it and pick up my spear that hit the rabbit from the ground.

The prey trapped in the completed siege net was trembling.

Not with fear, but with anger.

It charges forward with a roar of anger.

Since it looked like that, even if it screamed with all its might, it was only a melodious sound, but even so, the killing power contained in that melodious voice made the hand holding the weapon naturally gain strength.

But we are also different from those who fell in fear before her sword.

I will use that much force and swing my weapon at her.

Numerous lines of destruction drawn by swords, axes, claws, spears, and charges split the air and poured down on her like a sudden downpour in the middle of the forest.

The rabbit catches some of them with his two swords and throws them away, while the rest hit her cursed body.

The curse from the gods was still in effect, and blows that could take the life of an armored warrior bounce off her soft skin.

However, even the curse could not completely erase the power contained in those blows.

When you try to regain the balance of your body, which is staggering from being pushed by the force, another attack breaks through the sword’s defenses, rendering your efforts in vain.

Just as her rain-soaked body becomes heavier, the sharpness of the sword she swings becomes dull along with the hand and arm holding it.

The rabbit, noticing this fact, suddenly put all of its swords behind its back and took the onslaught of attacks entirely with its body.

No matter how unscathed she was by the curse, the impact was too much for her, and she was thrown out with a groan, spitting out air.

Since he was throwing himself to escape from us in the first place, there won’t be any complaints.

As expected, she, who had been rolling on the ground, covered in dirt and leaves, suddenly rolled her body into a circle, kicked the ground, and took a long jump.

In an instant, a long distance widened, and her red eyes were busy trying to read our next move.

Especially while examining my and the female warrior’s hands.

If the distance had widened, at least the only thing that could hit her directly at that moment was my spear and the female warrior’s axe.

And when she sees me once again raise my spear and pull my arm over my shoulder, she quickly takes a stance in the air to catch the weapon that once hit her.

I move the arm holding the spear without paying any attention to him.

The various muscles in his arms contracted to their limit and then tightened, shooting out spears from his fingertips.

Just like before, the javelin rushing through the air with a terrifying sound was aimed at the rabbit’s head.

At least it seemed that way.

Therefore, she, who became the target of the spear, covered her face with the weapons she was holding and prepared to throw him away with her mysterious sword skills, but…

Something reached her faster than the spear.

By driving the rabbit into this hunting ground, she had previously inflicted unwelcome pain for the first time in hundreds of years.

The female warrior lifted the horn with the same hand that was pretending to throw the ax and blew it as hard as she could.

Another burst of drinking tears at my wounded ear.

In that situation, even if you were a swordsman who had studied the method of slaughter for hundreds of years, your posture was bound to be disturbed.

And the disheveled sword couldn’t catch the spear I threw.

The spear did not hit the head directly.

Because of that shock, if she flew away again and gave me more distance, I might lose her again.

Instead, Chang snatched a sword from her grasp, weakened by pain.

The female warrior, dragon soldier, and Luvia rushed towards the prey, who was barely able to support his body, which was about to collapse from exhaustion, with his only remaining sword stuck in the ground.

The ax and claw overlapped and crushed the place where the sword and sword collided.

In the meantime, Emma, who was carrying me, rushed in the form of a half-man and half-horse towards the rabbit that refused to let go of the sword.

A change of idea that if you can’t take the sword out of her hand, you can just separate her from the sword.

Carrying that stream of thought into a fierce rush, Emma hit it like she was kicking a cursed rabbit.

Just as she had initially aimed for, the rabbit circled in the air and bounced far into the distance.

Of course, her plan would not have included having all the weapons in her hands taken away or being cornered to the point where she couldn’t even use the fall technique.

“…that black…”

It took quite a long time just to get my trembling body up.

Even she might be wondering in her head why we didn’t rush in to subdue her while she was struggling to stand up.

I would rather get out of here than get the answer to that question.

So he must have moved his trembling hand towards his torn ear.

When the curse that cannot be hurt is slightly broken by physical force that cannot be handled, the wound is stimulated to try to escape once again into a space that is distorted along with the curse.

But she was down long enough for me to get off Emma and retrieve the spear.

This time, instead of throwing the spear, I grabbed it with both hands and rushed at her.

In the end, with the intention to end the hunt with this.

The action is clearly contradictory.

If the curse was unstable and the spear blade tried to pierce her white skin, the distortion of space would become even worse, and a way out as she wanted might open up.

However, the cursed rabbit did not throw itself towards the spear blade.

It’s not like he was afraid of the pain now; he must have sensed it through intuition.

The fact that the tip of that spear contains something other than the power to pierce the enemy’s heart at once.

Still, the rabbit was unable to avoid the net that was tied to the spear’s blade being stretched and pounced on her, tying her up.

The spider that made the net with string had no intention of missing its long-awaited prey.

No matter how hard you struggle, the net only gets tighter.

Until finally all movement of the prey stopped and it was trapped inside the white bars.

Only then does the hunting end.
