Chapter 9: The Sharpshooter

Start from the beginning
                                    

Sigurado kung sino man ang mga ito na humihingi ng tulong at namatay dito sa forest, exactly at the morning and at this date, sino ang magiging unang suspect ng Axel? Syempre kami ni andrew dahil we were at the forest at the same time. I know andrew can be my witness, pero naninigurado na lang din ako because this can cause me losing my head if I am proven guilty somehow, because knowing Axel he will definitely find some way to turn this crime to me. I maybe exaggerating things, pero I am fighting for my life here. My life is on the line the moment I am reincarnated here.

I gasped ng marating na namin kung saan nagmula ang sigaw ng babae. I am horrified at the sight of a group of knights lying dead on the ground.

"What happened here?" Tanong ni Andrew sa dalawang tao na nasa loob ng carriage na mukhang kahit anong oras gigiba na. The two turned towards us ng marinig nila ang boses namin.

"Why there's only the two of you?!" The woman cried out in disappointment.

Excuse me?

Tutulongan na nga namin kayo nagrereklamo ka pa kung bakit kami lang ang lumapit sainyo! Now, I am really guilty for stopping andrew. Dapat pala hinayaan na lang namin tong mga to.

"Watch out!" The man beside the woman shouted in alarm, looking straight behind us. Andrew pushed me out of the horse, bago isang malaking wolf ang umatake sa likod ng kabayo na kanila lang inuupuan namin. The hose cries out in pain and wildly jumps around and kicking the wolf out of his butt.

"We have a problem." I said ng mapansin ko ang grupo ng mga werewolf na dahan dahan lumalapit samin. Waiting for us to make a move. No wonder the knights can't stand a chance, there's a whole pack here!

The woman is right.

Why there's only two of us?!

Looking at the situation right now, paniguradong wala kaming laban sa mga to. Why I am here again? Ah, to prevent a possible death in the future, but looks like I just dig my own grave aren't I?

"Quick! Get inside!" The man inside the carriage opened the carriage door for us to get inside, pero isinara agad ito ng babae without waiting for us. No thanks, paniguradong gigiba na ang carriage pag pumasok pa kami sa loob.

Sino ba ang may balat sa pwet sa dalawang to at nagdala ng malas dito.

It's rare to encounter a single wolf, ano pa kaya kung isang pack of wolves?!

"I can handle half of them, sayo na ang kalahati." Andrew whispered beside me. Pinanlakihan ko sya ng mga mata. Is he serious? There's like 20 of them! Ano yan parang shared load ganun? Marami parin ang sampu! I can't even handle 5 wolves!

Without waiting for my response, nagsimula na syang umatake sa pinakamalapit na wolf sa tabi nya. The moment he made a move, all of them attacked us. We have our back on each other as we trie---I tried to fight the wolves attacking left and right using a short word. Buti na lang at naisipan ni andrew bigyan ako ng short sword at isang dagger. Although mas malaki ang short sword sa dagger, mas maiksi at magaan naman ito sa isang normal sword.

I kicked the wolf to my left in the face as I used the momentum to jump in the air para maiwasan ang isang wolf na aatake sa harapan ko. Before the wolf can bite Andrew's back, I thrust my sword up to his stomach bago hinagis ang katawan nito sa dalawang paparating na wolf sa kanan ko.

The wolf that I kicked to my left took advantage of this chance and managed to knock out the short sword out of my hand. Kinuha ko agad ang dagger ko para saksakin ang wolf sa kanyang mukha bago pa man nya ako makagat at ginamit ang katawan nya para harangan ang isa pang wolf aatake sa harapan ko.
