Card Master System - Chapter 9 Monster Attacks

Acting quickly, all of the women started pulling all of the children in a small underground area while those who wore armor started to get into a small defensive formation behind the teenagers in each patrol.

“Get your spears ready and pay attention to the entrance. Those who have short swords, get behind the spear holders at the ready.”

“If you all stay vigilant, we should have no one in here dying tonight! Remember your training and stay alert!”

While all of this was going on, Leo chose not to join up in the militia’s defensive formations and stood in his corner. He realized that these villagers thought of him as a worthless outsider, so he would not hear any complaints.

“Roar!”

After another hour went by, suddenly a large monster could be seen outside of the entrance of the building swinging its large tail towards it.

“Get ready!” shouting, all of the patrol leaders seemed as if they were about to enter a battle to the death.

With what seemed like a simple strike, the monster was able to use its tail to whip off the entrance’s door before charging inside.

This monster looked what appeared to be a more demonic version of a lizard. It had two hook shaped horns on its head. Its scales were pitch black and it had a very long tongue similar to a snake.

“Be careful! That monster seems to have some level of intelligence. If you are not careful, you may forfeit your life tonight!”

With a sharp gaze, the monster fully unleashed its killing intent. Seeing this, Leo couldn’t help but blink in fear while covering his body with his worn out shield. However, the patrols started to crumble in fear.

It was almost as if, this monster was using a skill or ability to destroy everyone’s morale with only using its gaze!

“Warriors stay calm! I said stay calm!” one of the patrol leaders who was able to be the first to snap out of his fear called out.

“Roar!” the lizard like monster let out a second big roar which shook the building to the point of almost collapsing onto itself.

From this fear, all of these younger militia warriors started to drop to their knees. To many, it was a useless struggle facing such a terrifying monster.

“Die you stupid lizard!” all of the sudden a small group of four guards stormed the monster and started attacking it. The leader of these guards was none other than the Master Nathan that Leo bumped into earlier.
