Bab 22: The Ruined Fortress of Roha Vala, Part Seven

As the half-pig, half-human enemies ran at her, the healer sprinted back to the hall she'd just come out of.

[Crap, crap, crap.]

As she made it back there, she turned and found that, indeed, both pig-like enemies were right on her tail, with what seemed like fairly negative intentions judging by the bloodstained weapons they were holding up in the air.

Neve had them where she wanted them, though.

[Come on. You don't even know what's coming!]

Human ingenuity was undefeated so far, in this dungeon.

Sure, these appeared to be slightly more intelligent creatures than the mannequins Neve had been taking on, but, given how they squealed and screeched, it appeared that they were still animals. This strategy was all Neve needed.

At least, she thought so.

She was proven wrong, however, when both enemies stopped just in front of the tripwire.
