76 Chapter 76
The orcs froze as they glared at the new strong opponent that got involved in this fight. They couldn't dare to just jump at Leislet mindlessly even though they were not that smart.
"You want me to help you, right?"
Acht didn't react quickly to her question and just looked ahead at the number of orcs standing in front of him.
Acht knows that he could beat five or maybe six of them if they ganged up on him. But, if that number of orcs cornered him then he was dead. That fact alone made him question his behavior a few seconds ago.
'Did I become a suicidal maniac?' He thought to himself.
That was weird from him since he had never been that type of person, to begin with. He was rather a very cautious person who didn't get himself involved in battles he could lose.
But, for now, he scratched the thoughts from his head and shifted his eyes to Leislet.
"Where are the other hunters? I've been fighting this number of monsters alone for a while now." He couldn't hold himself from sounding a little bit irritated.
Leislet didn't seem offended and answered calmly.
"Most of them had been out on missions so when they came back. They had to fend off the huge numbers that reached each gate of the city."
"...I see."
Then, Leislet walked calmly toward him while ignoring the fact that she was a mere meters away from the savage monsters.
When she was close enough to him, she suddenly extended her hand and grabbed his face before pulling him into her chest and hugging him tightly.
Acht was shocked as he felt his senses get invaded by a soft and bubbly thing. It was a very pleasing sensation for some reason so he didn't react quickly to pull himself.
"Wh-"
"I'm sorry you had to fight like that and risk your life without any help coming. I'm really sorry." She said as she cut him off.
Her voice also sounded pretty sad for some reason so he couldn't retort or even answer. He could only sit there speechlessly waiting for her to release him.
But, instead of that, she did something different.
Her hands suddenly started illuminating with a warm white light. The light wasn't very bright so Acht didn't have to close his eyes.
Then, as if it was some kind of magical dream, he felt his body illuminate too. He looked at his hands for a moment and saw the other changes that occurred to him other than that.
His previously bloodied hand that was broken somehow started moving on itself and relocating his broken bones. Then, blood disappeared from his hand.
That also happened to his other arm and his legs. In mere seconds, all of his body was healed completely and he even regained his full energy.
'Light element?' Acht thought to himself.
He knows about light element awakeners since they are very popular. They tend to turn into healers most of the time since their powers could heal and purify anything considered filthy.
After the healing ended, the light disappeared. Yet, Leislet didn't release Acht and kept hugging his face and burying it deep into her massive cleavage.
"Mm…"
"Are you ok now?" She asked after some silence.
"Yeah…" he answered with some difficulty since his mouth was buried too.
As if his answer was a sigh, Leislet finally breathed a sigh of relief and released him from the hug.
Acht didn't know how to react to this awkward atmosphere so he just concentrated his eyes on the monsters.
"Why are they frozen like that?"
"Evil creatures can't move when I'm near them. I'm their most lethal weapon." She said as she pulled her weapon again.
Now that he took a look at it, it was very similar to the wands that magicians use in fiction. It was made out of some kind of dark wood with a blue crystal at the top, floating in the nothingness.
Then, Leislet held that wand high in the sky. The blue crystal started shining brighter and brighter as if it was heeding Leislet's call.
At this moment, this woman was looking like an angel that was about to purify heinous things and erase them from existence.
The orcs saw that bright light and they all shrieked as if they saw their worst nightmare. So, without caring about anything, they threw their weapons and tried to flee.
But, because of their big number, they collided with each other and fell down one after the other like dominos.
Each one of them seemed to be scared to death as they tried to get as far away from Leislet as possible.
Then, with a graceful move from her thin and perfect hands, the staff landed down on the ground with a small sound. All the light accumulated in the wand spread across the ground like a chain of waves passing through the ocean.
The light was way too fast for the orcs to react to. Almost immediately, an orc was touched by the light, it looked as if the we world just collapsed on it.
Then, instantly, its body turned grey and it broke down into pieces that looked like ashes pulled out from a fireplace.
The ash then flew away with the wind and disappeared forever.
The same thing happened with the other orcs as their bodies disappeared without making any mess.
It was such a beautiful scene even though it involved the mass slaughter of some creatures.
Acht watched this show of amazing strength and couldn't hold himself from making a weird sound. It was just way too impressive.
He then looked at Leislet with a complicated look. He thought light element awakeners can't really fight, it turned out that he was totally wrong.
She saw the admiration in his eyes and she chuckled lightly before saying.
"You are looking at the best light element awakener in this world. Nice to meet you~"
