Chapter 207: Smart beast
Knowing that the beast might unleash powerful long-range attacks, Cortan formed a barrier around them, including Isamu and Terou, and they glanced at them before looking at Nessa, and Sophia patted Isamu on the head.
"You'll be fine, we'll get your tail out in the meantime," She said as Ian and Yonja assisted in getting his tail out from under the rock, and he roared in pain, and Nessa flinched before looking back at him, and he bowed his head, thanking Yonja and the others, and they smiled at him, and Nessa sighed in relief before giving the beast her full attention.

"You seem to have been left here to guard this place and what was in it, I don't care, you don't have to kill people to do that all of the time, now that it's pretty obvious to me that you are not going to change your mind and still want to kill us, I will severely hurt you," She said as the beast roared and she blew a whistle as the others stayed by Isamu's side while looking at her.
"Don't take out your anger on me, I am not interested in bearing it," She said as the beast rushed towards her and she flung herself up in the air and saw that he released a few large spikes from its tail and her eyes narrowed.
"Look out!" Sophia yelled and Nessa landed behind a rock and his spike pierced through that instead of her.
"Well, that sure is dangerous," Nessa mumbled while looking at the creature as it moved around
"Now, how do I defeat you?" Nessa asked.
[Master, you can try getting rid of its tail, hit him in a blind spot, the skin on its body is hard and can be used as an armor, you have to get past that using a strong attack in order to actually put him down, the beast is strong, mix your fire with something strong, something piercing.]
"I see, thank you," Nessa said.
[You are welcome, but be careful, he is smart and even knows sneak attacks.]
The beast then vanished, and Nessa's eyes widened as she sensed him approaching from behind her, and before he could strike her, she flung herself back, and he shattered the massive rock with only his tail, and she exhaled deeply as the others watched, wondering what would happen next.
"You are smart indeed, fascinating, I really am starting to wonder who created you, a beast like you doesn't appear out of nowhere, I know what you are looking for but unfortunately I cannot give it to you, we need to leave from here and you are causing a mess, let's see if this work," Nessa said as she took a deep breath with her eyes glowing orange.
Three orange magical circles appeared behind her and the others left staring as fireballs came shooting out of them and at the beast, who kept on dodging, but then finally he roared in pain when one of them did hit directly by its neck and Nessa smirked upon realizing where its weak spot was.
"Guys, do you think that Nessa will be okay?" Niva asked.
"I think she will be fine, I guess," Ian responded and Yonja glanced at him and he shrugged then Yonja sighed.
"I don't know why, but I think she will be just fine on her own," Yonja said as a dark aura began surrounding the beast and Isamu began growling as well as Terou.
"Now what?" Nessa asked as the beast disappeared and she couldn't sense him anymore.
"What's this? I can't sense him," Yonja said.
"Same here," Ian added and they sighed before looking around, trying to find him.
"Where the hell did it go?" Nessa asked as she closed her eyes, focusing on her surroundings, trying her best to sense the beast, but despite that, she couldn't sense him and realized that it covered itself within the aura and she scoffed.
"It's smart indeed, you are dangerous to have around, you killed many people who tried to clear this dungeon, I guess I should really just get rid of you now," Nessa mumbled as she continued looking around.
"Sense him yet?" Cortan asked and Nessa looked at them, then at Isamu's legs, knowing that she had to heal him.
"Nope, nothing as yet but one thing I am sure of, is that, it has not left this part as yet and it won't, not until it kills us at least," She responded and they sighed before looking at each other, knowing that it would be a problem if they don't get rid of him and it was already past midnight.
"Come out, come out wherever you are," Nessa said and Ian burst out laughing and she smiled at him.
"Your tone made you sound like a psychotic killer," Ian said and she chuckled.
"Maybe I am," She replied.
"Pretty sure you are not," Niva said and Nessa smiled before stretching off, feeling even sleepier than before.
[Look out!]
Nessa's eyes shook as the beast rushed towards her and hit her with its tail into the ground and the others gasped as she coughed up blood due to the impact of the hit and the beast roared.
"Nessa," Ian mumbled as she stood back up and wiped the blood off of her lip and the beast's dark aura began surrounding her body and her vision got blurry.
Isamu tried to get up as the beast was approaching Nessa and Sophia grabbed onto him and he looked at her as Terou began knocking on the barrier and Cortan sighed as the darkness began suffocating Nessa and she took a deep breath as her eyes glowed red and the whips appeared in her hand as well as four magic circles behind her and the others looked at each other.
"We have to help her," Yonja said.
"No," Nessa replied and they looked at her then sighed.
"Nessa, you have to get out of there," Sophia said.
"It's fine, you guys stay put, please, I will be fine..." She replied as a smirk appeared on her face and she glared at the beast with an intimidating aura surrounding her body and the creature roared at her.
