Chapter 91 Protecting
A minute ago.
"Go, go away!" shouted a huge muscular man while looking at his subordinates leaving. This half-naked man had a cold expression as he muttered, "Another soldier again? They're going to die needlessly."
He didn't know why but his attention was focused on the axe on his bed as though someone strong was coming this time.
He then looked at the naked women all over the room. His fierce gaze made them shiver and look down, not daring to look at him in the eyes.
As if their instinct was incited, the demons started rampaging inside their cages.
The man looked at the cage next to him. The cage was made of an iron bar. The demon's size was only half the size of a human so that they could be trapped inside that cage.
"It seems this place is really my target." Noel's voice echoed inside the tunnel as Noel made his appearance slowly.
The only reason he didn't choose to ambush them was so that he could take a deep look at the room.
It seemed the miner had excavated a 30x30 room. It was spacious that made one forget they were inside a hill.
On the left side, he could see a few beds lining up to each other with naked woman shivering. It was clear as to what kind of treatment they had received this whole time. Still, he counted the women and confirmed their number was the same as what the bandit said earlier. There were only twenty of them. They killed elderly, kids, and men.
However, his focus was on the opposite direction. He could see many black cages containing a Low Level Demon. For him, they weren't that dangerous, but it would be a different case for normal bandits or villagers. These demons were enough to massacre them.
There were a few half-naked men on the sides who were sitting on the ground as if they were lazying around. It was clear that they had satisfied themselves just not long ago.
Noel's gaze was cold as he saw these atrocities. However, his attention soon shifted to the giant man across him.
His aura and fierceness were telling him that he was the leader.
"Who are you? How can you reach this place?" The leader shouted while raising his axe.
"Ah, are you talking about those puny bandits? They're all dead." Noel was lying without batting an eye. He was just showing a strong front to scare the bandits.
However, the bandit leader laughed out loud as if he was looking at a fool.
"You think you can pass them that easily? You must have a group that is luring my people away."
"You can believe whatever you want." Noel pulled out his sword. "Who taught you how to catch a demon and exploit them like this?"
"Do you think I'll tell you?" The bandit leader suddenly turned to his remaining four subordinates that still remained in this room. "Do it. We'll see whether he is that strong that he can protect those women from the demons."
"!!!" Noel widened his eyes as the bandits had no hesitation in opening the cage, allowing the demons to go straight to the woman as if they were going to eat them.
At first, Noel believed that his thought was already pretty extreme when he was thinking about multiple ways to kill Anna. However, he realized that he was still far too innocent compared to these bandits.
They killed innocent people not for revenge, but for their own amusement.
Noel hurriedly stood between the women and the demons while holding his sword. He strengthened his muscle with the Spirit Technique, looking at the incoming demons.
The seven Low Level Demons hurriedly charged at them. Some even pounced on him.
Noel clicked his tongue. Luckily, he only needed to handle four demons instead of seven as those guys still tried to open the other cages.
*Roar!*
The demons were scaring the women as a few of them started convulsing. They remembered how their people who died got thrown into the cage to feed the demons.
They always thought their fate would be the same sooner or later. Some of them became even hysterical as they started screaming, not wanting to die.
'It's impossible to say anything to these people right now.' Noel clicked his tongue and stepped forward, swinging his blade toward the demon that was about to reach him.
The demon waved its paw to overwhelm him, but Noel wasn't the weak him from the past. As soon as he struck the demon's claws, Noel stomped the ground and pulled the sword, releasing all his strength in that one swing.
"!!!" The demon looked at the sword before his body was spinning in the air due to being overwhelmed by Noel's power.
He then kicked the demon to the other one as they ended up crashing into each other. This way, he only needed to handle the remaining two demons that came from the opposite direction.
However, not everything went according to the plan as the remaining three demons had been released.
While glancing at the demons, Noel thought, 'With the demon's speed, I'm afraid I only have this one chance.'
Without a single hesitation in his blade, Noel used his Swift Strike.
The demon could see the attack coming, but the Swift Strike was already too fast for a Low Level Demon. In that one swing, two demons had their heads cut horizontally and dropped to the ground lifelessly.
Noel then proceeded to the three remaining demons that came to him. Luckily, the other two demons were struggling to get up, so he could focus on these three for the time being.
Mega Slash.
The Spiritual Energy covered his sword as he smashed the demon's body with his blade. The swing was too powerful that it cut everything on its path, allowing Noel to make a complete swing, slicing another demon's head in the process.
As for the last one, his sword couldn't make it, so he spun his body and kicked the demon away. "You're not going to eat anyone in my watch."
Unfortunately for him, the moment he uttered those words, Noel could see an overwhelming presence on his back. It was the bandit leader and he was already swinging his axe.
"Die!"
