章 193: Intimidation
I caught my breath as I stared at the ground, the hall back to the surface might have been the only time I've had to strain myself like that since the apocalypse.
*Ha* *Ha* *Ha*
Gulping in a lungful of air I composed myself for a few seconds before checking my surroundings. We were of course back outside of the mountain, what had changed though was the huge amount of people standing in front of us.
They were about 100 meters from where we were, so well within an archers attack range. Using my spirit vision to check their amount of strength, seeing as I couldn't reach them with analyse, I let out a small breath of air.
For a minute I thought they were a part of the bandit group that attacked us before, or possible a whole new group. I still wasn't sure on both accounts but seeing the amount of strength they put out I was relieve. They were strong, stronger than the bandits we faced before.
But compared to the Rock Titans and of course Colabrus, they weren't even close. We could take them if we had to. Though the kids could still be hurt, especially if they were to assault us with long range attacks.
Looking at them for a few seconds and seeing that they weren't going to do anything I finally relaxed my shoulders. They didn't seem hostile. Seeing as that was the case I turned my attention towards Hunter, he and I had a bone to pick.
Looking in his direction I saw him looking back, He had a relieve expression on his face at making it out alive, though his face was red from exhaustion. But seeing my face his once red appearance paled visibly. An evil grin spread across my lips as I started to slowly walk over.
He moved to back away as if I were the plague, but I just increased my speed closing the distance between us within seconds. Raising my hand to clasp his shoulder, I felt his body stiffen as his body started to tremble.
"Now what was that about Dungeon's self-destructing when they are destroyed?"
"Um....I...Wait.....noooo...help!"
**********************
(A few minutes Later)
I moved back as I heard the galloping of horses, the group had finally sent some people towards our location. In front of me I looked down at Hunter, who had tears in his eyes and was spasming on the floor. I let out a small smile of content before turning to great them.
It was a small contingent of them moving forwards. Out of, I would guess a few hundred, only 30 or so moved forwards. Even from here I could tell that there were a few groups in the small party. It looked like there were 3 groups in total.
2 were being led by men, while the last one was lead by a woman. They three galloped ahead of the others with 29 followers each. Looking at each of them I could feel their auras. I decided not to use analyze as I found out that was considered extremely rude and could cause an incident.
First impressions were a very important thing. The woman was a beauty, even though she had a mask up to her face, I could ascertain that fact just by the way she held herself and her figure. Looking at her I felt power that could easily rival the soldiers from the empire I had run into at the library, which felt like it happened so long ago, but was only a few weeks.
She was on the right of the group. In the middle was a bigger man decked out in full plate armour, he had the biggest aura out of the group and it was just slightly weaker than their own aura. If I had to put it into words I would say he was as strong as me when I just entered the dungeon.
The slight killing intent that leaked from him told me how dangerous he truly was, he had been in many fights.
Finally on the left was someone I knew I wouldn't be getting along with. His horse compared to the rest was decked out in the best gear, burdened with heavy bags on the side. I didn't know what was in them but I would guess some type of coins.
The man sitting atop the horse was as round as a ball. With my great eye sight I could make out the beady look in his eyes, the expression he had as his eyes roamed over Ella and Rose made me frown instantly.
Rose for her part was absolutely fuming on the inside, I could feel the hatred she projected towards the fat man, possibly he reminded her of something or someone better left dead and dismembered.
I sent a small though her way. I wasn't going to stop her from killing the fool if he did something, which I was sure he just might, but I would wait till he did something, better to make it look like self defense when there are multiple groups concerned.
*Gallop* *Pound* *Clack Clack*
The horses stopped 10 meters away from us and fanned out in a semi-circle, their aura's flared to life as they drew their weapons. Staring up at them I didn't flinch as I let loose myself. I didn't know how to do this properly so I just let demonic kiss leak from my hands and absorb the energy in the air.
I also let my frozen rage push outwards, the temperature in the air getting colder and colder. Behind me Ella and Rose also stepped up, in their hands they had their weapons ready. The bow with an energy arrow already knocked, aimed at the woman, Rose's whip resting on the ground.
*Neigh!*
A few of the horses buckled from the cold, but no one fell off. The huge man in front of me used analyze and a frown came to my face, that was supposed to be extremely rude. 'Well that would be a good enough reason to attack these guys.' A small smile came to my lips and I noticed the fat man flinch at the sight.
Flicking my wrist my halberd appeared before it was coated in ice, the sharp edge glinting in the sun above. Raising it to rest on my shoulders I stared right at the person in the middle before narrowing them. They weren't being very hospitable, I didn't have to either.
"Who the fuck are you guys?"

Zevren Here's the chapter I hope you guys enjoy.
So at the minute I still want to continue the story and I don't intend to drop it, but i also realize that my release's will be a lot slower than before. Probably 2 times a week, maybe once a week.
If I had to say a reason, right now its my motivation to continue writing the novel; and between everything i'm doing, I just can't be stuffed sitting down and writing a chapter.
I will continue to proceed with the book, just a heads up.
