Rise Of The Scorpion - Chapter 32 Forest of Death part10/ Assassination and sneaking

Seeing the purple, cold sweat broke out of Dorian’s back, his instinct and perception screamed at him to not touch or go near the liquid.

“N-ne, Boss what is that,” asked Dorian nervously.

“It looks dangerous,” said Emilia curiously.

“It’s indeed dangerous,” said Sasori smiled.

Dorian and Emilia trembled, they didn’t dare to ask about the purple liquid any further.

“H-how should we deal with them?” asked Dorian, trying to change the subject.

“We are going to assassinate the leader of this group,” said Sasori as he played with the purple vial.

“Assassinate?!” asked Emilia curiously, because as a warrior and a divine knight, the concept of assassination is against her moral code.

“When?” Dorian ignored Emilia and asked excitedly.

“Two days from now at midnight,” said Sasori.

“Roger,” said Dorian as he saluted Dorian, Emilia just rolled her eyes at the dark Summoner’s antiques.

“Emilia, what do you knew about stealth?” asked Sasori.

“S-stealth?! I-i know a thing or two” said Emilia nervously.

********************************

Later that night a few km away, a shadow was sneaking through the dark forest.

*Step**Step*

The shadow was a figure wearing a black cloak, it was hard to see his/her face.

*Step**Step**Crack*

The figure froze.

“YAWN” The cloaked figure turned slowly.

Behind the figure was a lvl 12 raptor, it stretched its a body before changing its sleep position.

*Sigh* the figure sighed in relief before moving again, slowly and cautiously.

*Step**Step*

The cloaked figure was nervous, fighting a pack of raptor was a death wish to any individual under lvl 15.

After sneaking past countless raptors, the figure then spotted a small cave.

The figure rejoiced and crawled inside, then it found its target, a purple core.

After grabbing the core, the figure then turned around to leave.

“Raa” The figure froze.

Behind the cloaked figure was a small raptor.

“Raa” the small raptor called again.

*Shhhh!* The figure raised a finger to hush the small raptor.

The small raptor looked at the figure curiously, but the moment it saw the figure holding it’s a new toy, it began to scream.

“RAAA…” The small raptor began to scream, but the figure put its hand on the raptor mouth.

“SHHHH!” the figure hushed.

*Ah!* The raptor bit the figure’s hand, before grabbing the core and escaping.

“You little…” said the figure, before following the small.

Outside the cave, the figure was walking slowly to grab the core back from the small raptor.

“RAAAAA!” sensing the figure movement the small raptor screamed.

The figure grabbed the core but then it froze, as countless red eyes shone from the darkness.

*Roarrr*…*Roaaaar*…*ROAAR*

The whole pack was awakened by the small raptor scream.

*Woosh*

Without thinking twice the cloaked figure made a run for it, and the raptor pursued.

*Roarrr*…*Roaaaar*…*ROAAR

What makes the raptors dangerous was not their speed or razor-sharp teeth and claws, but their numbers and cunning minds.

They surround their victims and wear them out, before tearing them to shreds.

*Wash* the cloaked figure was running incredibly fast, but it never lost the raptor pack.

*Roarrr*…*Roarrr*

Suddenly countless beasts that have one thing in common, blood red eyes and black veins all over their body, Bears, wolfs, apes… all kind of beasts attacked the raptor pack.

“Bastard you made me wait on purpose!” yelled the figure before taking off the cloak.
