42 Battling The Beast.(2)

"Now, this is gonna give us some big problem, bringing this thing down wouldn't be easy". One of the warriors voiced out.

"Do you think the deep cut Ethan gave it in its neck is having any effect? Maybe it's weakened a little". Another warrior uttered.

"No one knows, but most likely, it won't, does it seem like it's having any effect on it? We've been slashing that same neck, but to no effect, so I strongly doubt it would have any effect on it". Another warrior retorted.

At that moment, the beast growled and began moving toward them again. Then that warrior glanced at the other one that asked that question and said,

"See, no effect. Maybe if he was able to widen the cut some more, then it might have had an effect".

The beast was moving toward them with speed, and at that moment, one of the S-rank benders among them forwarded his hand as huge fire came out of it and headed toward the beast's face. It blasted the beast's face, and that caused it to growl loudly.

The man was hoping to at least cause some damage to its face, maybe blind its eyes, but nothing of that sort happened. Instead, after it was done growling, it began moving again.

But the warriors noticed something, the beast wasn't moving toward them...it changed direction and was heading somewhere else. And according to what they noticed, it was heading toward the people at the back...the people watching them battle the beast.

The warriors knew that people were behind them, but they had no time to tell them anything, most likely telling them to leave...they were busy battling the beast. The beast had noticed them and was heading there to kill some people.

Those people weren't warriors, they weren't skilled like the warriors, so killing people there wouldn't be a problem for the beast at all.

And at that moment, what was running through the warriors' minds was, 'Why did the beast suddenly leave us and was heading toward the people at the back?'. But they discerned something not long after,

'It wants to go kill people there since those people wouldn't give it the problem we are giving it'.

At that moment, screams and shouts started resounding, females were screaming, and the males were shouting...why did the beast suddenly decide to head toward them?

Aiden stood there glancing at the beast heading toward them, he didn't even know what to do at that moment. People had already started running for their lives, but he still stood there glancing at it. As the beast was getting closer, Aiden began taking steps backward...he began moving back slowly.

The warriors knew they needed to stop the beast, they can't let it kill another set of people, they can't let it cause another damage. So they began running toward it with speed.

At this moment, Aiden had taken to his heel already. As he was running, he was glancing at the beast...he had to take to his heel, he doesn't want to die.

The beast was running toward them when it suddenly stopped, one of the warriors jumped toward its head, hung on it, and stabbed his sword into its back head. The beast growled loudly at that moment as it swiveled its head bringing out large flame from its mouth.

The flame headed toward the warriors on the ground, but they quickly moved back and the flame didn't end up touching them. Then the beast began moving its right hand to grab the man that was hanging in its back head.

..If it ends up grabbing him, it was gonna crush him beyond repair.

But the man wouldn't let it grab him just like that? At least, he had accomplished the aim of jumping toward its head and stabbing it there. That was to stop it from moving toward the people anymore.

Before the beast's hand could reach him, he drew the sword out of its back head and quickly jumped down. Then he ran toward the other warriors with speed. Stabbing the beast on its back head was a really nice move 'cause that seemed to affect it a little...it had a little effect on it.

The beast touched that spot on which the man stabbed it, and from the look of things, the beast became a little unstable...they noticed it.

"That stabbing you gave it in its head affected it". Ethan uttered to the man that stabbed the beast in its back head.

"Yeah", The man voiced out, then focused his gaze on the other warriors and uttered once again, "I noticed something, guys, the beast's core is right in its back neck. I think that's where we'll have to target to kill it. This is one of the highest ranks of magical beast, that's why bringing it down is so hard,

To kill this one, I think the only way is to destroy its core. I noticed it while stabbing its back head but couldn't do anything about it 'cause its hand was heading toward me already".

Ethan was aware of this, he knew these magical beasts had cores in their back necks. But for all the beasts he's battled, he didn't have to destroy their cores to kill them. His mind didn't even go to the beast's core.

'Maybe 'cause this beast is one of the highest ranks, so bringing it down would mean destroying its core'. Ethan thought to himself.

So at this moment, they aimed to destroy the beast's core. Many of the people watching the warriors battling the beast had run off, but some were still there...they ran and came back. And among the people still standing there was, Aiden...this 7-year-old boy got some guts.

He wanted to see if they'll be able to bring down the beast, and if they'll be able to bring it down...he wanted to see them do it.

The beast had already taken its hand off its back neck. And at that moment, it growled loudly once again as heavy wind began flowing around...it was making use of its wind affinity.

The warriors began moving back at that moment so the wind wouldn't take them off their feet...so the wind wouldn't push them that they'll lose balance completely.

Even as they moved back, they were still feeling breeze hit them. But due to the distance they've given the beast, it had no effect. But they can't keep distancing themselves from the beast? They needed to destroy its core, but they needed it to stop making use of its wind affinity first.

"You guys that possess the speed ability can quickly run toward the beast with speed once it stops making use of its wind power. Then one of you can jump toward its neck and stab the core. The aim should be to keep stabbing the core, I think, that should be enough to destroy its core and bring it down". One of the warriors voiced out.

And the warriors that possess the speed ability nodded their heads in understanding...Ethan was among them. They understood why the warrior made that utterance. He wasn't trying to push all the job of destroying the beast's core and killing it on them...no.

..Instead, he didn't want delay. Since they possess the speed ability and were faster, then it would be easier for them to reach the beast. And reaching it, they shouldn't wait, they should start working to destroy its core.

The beast had stopped making use of its wind power, and at that moment, Ethan and the rest of the other warriors that possess the speed ability began darting toward it.

..They were so fast, as fast as f**k, they reached the beast in no time. And on passing the beast's legs, Ethan slashed its right leg. Right now, they were standing at the beast's back as it was facing front glancing at the other warriors in front.

The beast shouldn't have noticed when they ran past, but it did due to the slashing Ethan gave it in its right leg. So as they were standing at its back, it was already swiveling at that moment to glance at them.

And immediately, one of the warriors jumped as he was heading toward the beast's neck. The aim was to get to its neck and begin stabbing its core to destroy it and bring it down...but things would go badly.

As the man was getting closer to the beast's neck, the beast had already swiveled to the extent that it could now see the man...

..And something happened.
