Chapter 331: To fight, or not to fight? Yasenia's Choice.
Even when her group was basically half in number compared to the other two, Yasenia didn't care; their current numbers were enough deterrence to avoid a fight if she played things right.
Why did Yasenia want to leave? You may ask. Her strength at that moment was enhanced because of her recent "birth," and Angel's and the other's strengths have proved to be extremely high. Therefore, battling now and eliminating groups of enemy cultivators should be the best choice.
However, Yasenia didn't think that way. It wasn't that Yasenia was afraid, but after so many years of warring, she understood that the battlefield was unpredictable. A single mistake could cost her own or any of her lovers' life.
Yasenia's mind spun, and she observed the surroundings. After moving during this whole time, the city was actually behind Jaxon's group, so they couldn't use that escape route. Their only option was to run the long distance until the forest and then use the dense vegetation to lose their trackers. 'Moreover, if they decide to chase in small groups, we can set ambushes and eliminate them in guerrilla warfare. Spiritual Sense is a thing, but its distance is not wide enough to avoid these confrontations. Even if there is a special person with twice my own spiritual Sense, I can ambush them easily in that environment.'
The dragoness didn't stop thinking as she approached Cecile. The platinum-silver-haired woman looked at her lover and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yasenia transmitted her thoughts through her link, Cecile was mildly surprised at her decision, but she felt relief more than anything.
Meanwhile, Jaxon shouted. "Isla, this has nothing to do with you. Although our races are enemies, we can always reach small agreements. I won't attack this time as long as you don't intervene with my problems with Yasenia."
Isla didn't say anything, but her lack of response was more than enough for Jaxon. Isla was practically the representative of the Divines, so she couldn't say aloud that she wouldn't attack them. However, everything else, from her body language to her eyes, spoke louder than any word.
Jaxon smirked, 'It seems that Yasenia's disregard for her has struck a nerve, hahaha. Stupid, if she allied with Yasenia, they could fight us off rather easily. As Master said, Divines can gloss over important matters if someone slaps their faces; their ego is extremely high.'
Isla's thinking was similar, 'Although I won't help in the beginning, after fighting for a while with their group, you will be weakened. I can strike at that moment and destroy you in one fell swoop. Is he really stupid enough to fight when a group of enemies is looking at them from so close?'
Yasenia communicated some more things with Cecile while keeping her attention on the battlefield situation. After listening to Jaxon's statement, she said one last thing to Cecile and let her speak aloud. Cecile's cold voice spread in the area once more: "There is nothing to gain for any side. Let's avoid the fight, and each go our ways. Jaxon, if you want the shield back, Yasenia agrees to a one-on-one in the middle of the three groups. It is your item. What does everyone else have to do with that?"
Jaxon sneered, "Are you trying to make our numerical advantage null with that stupid bait? What do you take me for?"
Cecile directly mocked him, "I see you as an arrogant and conceited Demon, one especially stupid since your recent increase of strength has bloated your head to the bursting point. How about admitting you are afraid instead of trying to speak in circles around it?"
The beast howled and roared, many in mockery, and parroted Cecile. "That's right! You were deceived; take it like a cultivator!"
"You want your shield? Fight for it!"
"Stupid Demon, our leader is willing to lower to your level. You should accept since only you will die that way."
"Bahahaha, good one, brother tiger!"
Jaxon said icily, "You steal my weapon, and then you tell me to fight? As expected of a lizard, your brain is lacking. How about I also steal one of your lovers and ask you to fight for it?"
Yasenia's pupils thinned, yet she didn't show any reactions. Internally, however, some plans changed, 'I will be demon hunting for the rest of my stay in the Secret Realm, it seems.'
Andrea shouted with a cold voice even before Yasenia or Cecile could retort. "Do you think we are wallflowers or something? I wanted to leave you with a bit of dignity, allowing you to fight against Yasenia. However, I changed my mind. Your opponent is now me, Demon."
Everyone was stunned. Although Andrea was known in the Academy, she wasn't known like the other same-level cultivators, Isla, Jaxon, Long Baidi, and all of those. They thought she was a nobody who interrupted the talk between the big shots. Therefore, curses rained on Andrea from those that didn't dare speak out sooner.
"A fucking nobody cares to speak up!?"
"Who do you think you are, whore?"
"Isla. You've felt it, and I have too. Let's get rid of her before she goes out of control. You've fought against her and see how fast she is growing. At this pace, at most, we'll be outclassed in another year. I don't believe their small group can face off against our coordinated assault."
Isla bit her teeth in frustration. It is true that Yasenia was growing out of control faster than she thought. However, was it correct to make Yasenia their enemy? As Jaxon said, she was growing extremely fast. Yet, currently, she doesn't have a bad relationship with Yasenia. There were a few small disagreements, but nothing worthy of becoming enemies.
An ally worth befriending or an enemy that has to be killed at all costs. Isla had to decide which side Yasenia fell on and answer Jaxon.
On the other side, Yasenia knew that attacking Jaxon's group now was a good opportunity; her sudden powerful roar had destroyed their morale. If Yasenia charged as the spearhead into battle and disrupted the enemy lines, the fight would end with few casualties on her side.
If it were the pre-trial her, she would have probably gone and attacked. Nevertheless, the pre-trial her would have assumed Isla wouldn't interfere or even help her. Her golden eyes moved and locked on the thinking Isla.
The years of fighting had made Yasenia more careful, more cunning, and more resourceful. 'Why attack now with thousands surrounding them? There is still a month left of time inside the realm. I don't really care about demons, but I care about killing Jaxon and the others. The most prudent thing to do is...'
Yasenia's dragon eyes flashed with a red light as she plotted their demise.
*Grrrr~.*
And well, they also flashed with pure delight as Andrea scratched her chin and horns. 'Darling is too good at this~; for the moment, let's leave. I want to cuddle with her.'
After observing the attitude of all the people present, Yasenia decided to leave. "Let's go. We are leaving." Said the dragoness to Cecile.
Cecile conveyed her words to the others. They nodded and without saying anything, they used their movement techniques and left the area.
Valeria, Mirrory, Ebirah, and Sierra followed behind.
Before they realized what was going on, our group was already in the distance, speeding away.
Everyone looked stupefied as the group of two beast women, four women, one giant woman, one lobster, one giant wolf, and one dragon disappeared into the forest.
Laurina, Linda, Lidia, and other people close to them blinked repeatedly, and when they understood that they had left just like that, they ran after them.
"Yasenia, wait for me!"
"Munchkin, wait for your big sister!"
"Lady Yasenia, I want to speak more in-depth; please wait!"
With similar comments, a group of thirty or so left as fast, if not faster than our group. Chasing after them.
The rest looked as if they had swallowed a fly. The blatant disregard was a big hit to their pride.
However, what could they do? Chase after them?
The Unification Realm experts could do so, but while doing so, they would leave thousands of troops behind.
Jaxon and Isla didn't expect Yasenia, with her dragon heritage, to run away, not caring about all the beasts present. What if they suddenly decided to attack them? Wouldn't they all die without their leaders?
In this absurd manner, Yasenia and the others left!
