My Last Hunt

Chapter 154: Quest For Three Stones (5)

Quest For Three Stone (5)

Opus;

Mad Rush

Wuza was true to his words; he harnessed the first monster in just few minutes and brought inside the barrier. Qiao was standing in front to go through the ordeal in true sense. He was not just doing this instead doesn't letting the monster rampage. Most of the monsters spot a Blood Hunter; they got immediately triggered with the impending situation. 

Monsters knew that Blood Hunters greatly differ from normal hunters. They just latch on the skin and never let it go until the death of the monster which was more horrible than to face the attack of the weapons. 

"Brother Qiao, now you can attack." He signaled and Qiao leapt without thinking further. He was waiting for the monster and situation demand him to not think even a bit. Deemed by the situation; Qiao was like a sharp shooter who has nothing to do but to focus the target. It was strange at the same time because Wuza was moving around it to scare to wits end. 

Perhaps the monster lost the will to continue and then the sword fell on it; both were in much collaboration and looked like a perfect scenario for hunting. "Great attack brother." Wuza praised and then again started to run madly around the monster. It was to stop the monster from any counterattack and let Qiao ready for the next attack. 

The huntress was looking at it and for some time she was unable to comprehend what exactly was going on. This Blood Hunter met the young man today and he was much invested to help him; it seemed he has a magic stone with him and could easily attract people toward him and compel them to help unintentionally. She was standing because walking near the monster in the present scenario was equal to get caught in the whirlwind and fell giddy. But she was more than interested to know that if the young man really possesses that charm stone? If yes then she might be tempted to get it from him. There was still some doubt whether he really possesses or not. She started to compare the time when she came here and the situation she was in back then. Despite all the hate she bore for the hunters: not a single hint of hatred appear when the young man spoke to her. 

If it was not stone of charm then how she could not abhor his presence the same way? It was definitely that charm stone. She was thinking in her head and observing the young man. She was never easy going for anyone when she left to venture the world but to be here and confined she was forced to think about it; why she was so lenient toward the young man. 

Qiao again attacked the monster and this time it fell on the ground unable to keep the madness of the Blood hunter and the sharpness of the sword of the normal hunter. "There we go." Wuza sounded triumph. Qiao was thinking something else; he looked toward the huntress and called, "Come here and take the experience points if you wish." 

His words brought her out of her thoughts and she walked forward without thinking what else to say or refute straightaway. With the two attacks Qiao sneaked at his token and he was disappointed to see that the experience points did not increase; it was an indication that this monster might not bear the desired stone. 

So it was fine if he let the huntress took the remaining experience points. She dragged her feet and reached near the monster to exchange some blows; such a waste of life to simple get the experience without running madly, getting injuries in return or face the schemes of the team members more than plain hunting. For Qiao, it was similar to pampering and if he lived in this conditional place then he would definitely start acting like pampered and spoiled hunter too. 

The monster was dead and the huntress took the charge to cut open to look for the stone. There was only one stone shining and she renounced it straightway. Qiao noticed her strange behavior and shook his shoulders. He was only focused to hunt as long as he could get the three stones. 

Now there were three bodies of the monsters and none was alive also no one bear the required stone. "Worry not, I will go and harness once again." After telling Wuza did not stop instead fled like wind. He rarely listened after making his mind; he felt the silence of the normal hunter and knew that he must be worried for his situation. 

Qiao nodded just because of the sincerity of the blood hunter else he was not interested to get the favor. The forest was now bustling with number of monster because it was evening outside and they came out to wander without any threat of hunting teams. 

Wuza was running here and there and actually choosing by instinct as to which kind of the monster can be helpful for brother Qiao. "This one no probably the black one ish, it is not much active how could it bear a wonderful stone?" he was deciding on them by guessing. "Perhaps this could give something off helpful." He selected one and then started to circle around it in order to get its attention. 

"Ah, its not reacting to my intruding." Wuza stopped and then picked one of the broken boughs and threw toward the monster then talked some irrelevant stuff which was enough for the monster to cast a glance at him. He then made some faces at the monster and when it started running toward him; Wuza ran toward the barrier laughing madly. 

Until now he only hunted with his seniors and never adhered to such methods; it was because he was afraid to offend his seniors but now he was really enjoying this way; venting out all his possible tricks which he never tested. The Blood hunters grow up faster than normal hunters so they rarely enjoy their early years with the foolish tricks or boyhood aimless wandering.
