Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 319

Chapter 319: Our Savior is a monster
Mani could not believe what he had just heard.

This was essentially what Neely had said. However, he never intended to pick her over anything or anybody.

He knew what Barbara was going to request of him next, And he had already decided on an answer.

“And if I say No!” He interrupted her.

She looked at him with her brows frowning. One look at her and it was obvious that she was holding back her slowly rising anger.

Barbara was currently leader of the only resistance against the Vandora kingdom.

People in positions of power were not most popular with the concept of patience. She was not too far an exception to this.

Besides, she was a bronze rank cultivator. She could not believe that an ordinary copper ranked cultivator would dare to go against her.

“Wait a minute…” She thought to herself. “Is he copper rank already. Did this man just advance on the battlefield?”

She couldn’t help but crack a sudden smile.

This smile came from the bottom of her heart.

Truly, she thought that she was a monster. However, a person advancing in the midst of battle was a different kind of monster.

One that she would not believe existed if she was not looking at him now.

Advancing in cultivation was not an easy thing to say the least.

It required focus on the energy, the advance, and not to talk of inspiration of the rank or realm.

This was something that took many years to figure out. Such a balance was so delicate that if disrupted only a little by one side, the natural flow of things would shift, and cultivation injury could ensure.

Sometimes, it could result into cultivation poisoning and in some worse cases, it could result in death.

Such a circumstance was rarely or in fact, it was never heard of.

However, Mani had done it.

In fact, she even suspected that Mani was not even aware of his cultivation advancement.

Her smile became bigger and broader.

She almost chuckled, but she knew that this was neither the time nor the place.

She had to hold it back.

In Mani’s eyes however, she looked a bit creepy.

It was like a monster smiling at a meal it was about to have.

“I won’t do it. I can’t,” Mani brazenly pushed her by the shoulder away from his face.

“I don’t know if you realized this, but I just got married today. He raised the purple ribbon still on his wrist. I don’t care if I am some hybrid, I rather live a village man and die as such. I am not meant for war.”

After saying this, he rushed for the door and ran out of the hut.

“MANI!” Old man Utah called to him.

However, Barbara raised a hand at the old man. “Don’t stop him, Utah. He needs time to process it all.”

The old man sighed at this. He could not help but bow his head as drop of tears fell down his eyes.

He really wished for a quiet life for his son.

However, destiny was a very funny fellow, catching him off guard like it did.

If he had known, maybe he would have chosen a different kind of life.

However, when Mani was little and he produced aura energy, it had come out as violet.

This had given some form of hope.

As far as he was concerned, the violet aura had suppressed the red.

Then again, it was either his mind was clouded with the hope of a simple life or it was because it was a well known fact that a person could not have two types of aura.

Either ways, he now felt like a miserable fool.

Because of his past actions, his son’s life was now to change.

Barbara also stepped out of the hut.

In front, were two big, buff warriors of the Rubrum tribe.

“Should we go after him?” One of them asked.

Gently, she shook her head.

“Don’t bother, even if all of you go, you will only be advancing to your death. Even a wounded rabbit will bite. That there is a monster.”

The men could not believe their ears.

Of course, Mani looked big and strong, but that was only compared to the villagers of this place.

Compared to them, he was like a teenager showing off to his grown father of how big his muscles had gotten.

Just then Abel materialized from the ground.

“Are you sure about this? If I am not mistaking, he is running back to his wife.”

Barbara smiled, “This I am aware of. But don’t worry, on his own accord, he will return.”

She turned around and stretched a little, “Damn it, I’m so tired. I need to get some sleep. Wake me when he returns.”

“Yes, chief!” The guards sharply responded.

She walked back into the hut and shut the door behind her.

Abel watched her leave, and then he turned in the direction Mani had run to.

He was really curious as to what would happen.

Mani on the other hand went around the village looking for Neely.

He screamed her name every where.

He even searched her home but she was not there.

He found other villagers but he just could not find her.

And when he asked around, no body responded.

Many of them looked at him with fear in their eyes.

It was very clear for him to see.

Some of them even pulled their children closer in fear.

They had all seen what he had done to the Vandorian soldiers.

These were a peace loving people. Aside from injuries from hunting, many of them had never seen blood of such quantity.

Yet, Mani had displayed a level of barbaric brutality only ever heard of in stories.

It was true that he did it for them.

However, what they saw was not a person but a monster.

Mani had searched the entire village but did not see her.

He suddenly remembered something. There was one place that she possibly could be hiding.

He immediately rushed there.

However what he saw….
