《Myriad Huntress》Chapter 15: The Corrupted
Advertisement
It was midnight
The school was now empty of people. Only the guard was left to patrol the school ground and guard against potential school breakers who like to vandalize the school wall occasionally.
-
Outskirt of the Abraham school, near the forest.
At the top of the tree, a shadow, wearing full-body cloth was leaning on it and looking at the full moon and the starry sky.
“If this isn’t a mission, I would like to do some star gazing here.”
Suddenly her ear twitch, she became alert and activate her [Bio-Electro radar] and observe the fifty meters radius.
It was currently dark, and the sound of rustling leaf was noticeable in the silent night, the moving branches and the shadows give birth to a dark atmosphere that suits for murder.
“Secure my ass” she murmurs looking vigilantly everywhere. Again her ear twitch, she turns her head right looking at the bushes. She can see a small squirrel picking a nut trying to open it.
Suddenly she felt gaze from three directions, without warning, they managed to surround her without her knowing.
“These guys can hide their energy, if I rely on my radar too much, I may not know how I die, I either need to rank it up or stop relying on it.”
She looks at the three shadow goes out of the darkness. When their true appearance show, she frowns when she realized she was facing three big wolves. They were the same size as a bison making them very intimidating, they're color was midnight making their fur mix between black and blue. Thanks to that, they seem to merge in the darkness. Their eyes were glowing like a ruby with hunger. Their fangs were dripping with black fluid, making the grass emit smoke.
"They're saliva is very corrosive...Then I need to attack them by distance"
“Grrr” They surrounded the tree she was standing and looking at her with hunger.

“Another three Dillan appeared…” she can't help her mouth twitch
The three wolves suddenly howl and start trying to climb up the tree.
“One Dillan is enough, I don’t need another four of you, so three of you can stay down!”
She jumps high and pulls out six home knives (Yes, she realized this is a modernized society of the 21st century where blade-like sword and katana were only displayed in the museum, she should think of a way how to create a sharp blade next time.) then activate weapon enhancement, mind enhancement, body enhancement, and true shot, and let those knife fly.
Under the moon, the arc of those knives was noticeable, especially when they were coated by a little enhancement, they were straight zigzag butterfly giving vibrant blue color in the night.
Sadly due to the low quality of metal, she was a force to decrease the energy to make sure the knife won’t melt or torn to pieces after inputting energy. Thankfully, after days of practice, (and spending her almost all of her allowance for a stupid home knife set.) She was finally able to control the right amount of energy the knife can contain, although it can’t slice the metal like butter, it can still poke some tender meat.
When she landed, she heard the yelp at her back, when she turn around, all the eyes of the three wolves has been poke by the knife.
The three werewolves howl in pain, they became enraged and scratch their eyes attempting to remove those painful objects sticking to their eyeball. She watches as the three wolfs bump themselves on the tree, trying to relieve the pain.
“Let me end your suffering”
She pulls out three knives, and throw it at the sky like a performer. She bows her head and heard the “thud” sounds. When she raised her head, she saw knifes sticking on their forehead.
“Whatever world you are; silver will always be your weakness.” She stretches herself
“Well that was easy, maybe I overdo it?”
She murmurs to herself. Suddenly she stops talking and looks at the three wolves. She became dignified and her earlier happy demeanor vanish.

“I take it back; this guy seems to be a pain the ass.”
The three corpses of werewolves began to rise slowly, shaking their fur. The knife was still sticking to them, but she just notices no blood was spilled in the earlier fight.
“What the fuck? I am going to fight immortal now? Is this a little bit too much of first boss fight?”
She readies her stance. Since ordinary attacks won’t work…She doesn’t know what will work. Maybe she can break all their bone and see if they can stand up, if not she will try to destroy their head. Maybe they are those zombies that need to be shot in the head. Then she looks at those knives poking at their head and eyes.
“…forget it, I’ll find a solution”
She was about to attack when she stopped, her eyes bulge when she hears movement not far away from her.
“Fuck, there’s more of them? I thought three was enough?!”
When she was pondering what to do, she heard a familiar voice.
“Shoot them!”
Then the whole forest was lit by multiple lights, she watches in fascination as the three undead wolves were riddle by bright bullets, the three dogs whimper and twitches as they permanently lay on the soil, she watches as the three became ashes and scattered in the wind.
“…”
“ding”
“You have help slain the three corrupted 3/3, you have gained 15000.”
She didn’t have time to appreciate the new log on the blue screen because she was currently surrounded by people. They were pointing their gun at her, looking vigilant.
“Who are you, explain yourself why you’re here?” a familiar rough voice echo in the forest
In the forest, three people appear.
On the left side was a man with bulging muscle that can rival the rock except his eyes were cold and indifferent.
On the right side was a woman wearing a black blazer with a red stiletto (Seriously, girl are you on the stone? Making those precious baby red shoes step to walk on those dirty rocks was a sin!) and of course our favorite Dillan who was on the middle of the group. Unlike in the day, he wore a black uniform with a vest and looking very serious.
“According to my analysis, she was able to enter in this school because it recognizes her.” The woman said while crossing her arms.
“All the faculty members have been notified about the abnormality here so they were impossible to appear here.” the bald man says looking at her curiously.
“He or She must be a student in this school, Base on those figures, she must be a woman.”
“Don’t forget anyone can change their figure as long as they have “Those” drugs”
“You have a point.”
Dillan watches her with a narrow eye while twitching his nose.
Ha! Like I won’t be prepared for something like this. Since I was in the dog’s territory, I have prepared different perfume so no one can-
“Joan?” Dillan gawk and mutter silently
“…” She guesses not all she read on the internet is reliable.
The bald man and the girl look at her strangely, while Dillan gawks and approach her.
She steps back looking at him vigilantly. She looks around her but found herself surrounded by the wolf pack group.
If she pays attention to her, every member of the group lower their gun and look at Dillan and at her strangely. Sadly, our heroine was overthinking how to escape the predicament and think of a plan to change her name to Jessica and change her nationality to Spanish who grew up in Mexico.
“Joan, what are you doing here? It's dangerous out here!”
She just sighs and looks at the starry sky.
“Ding”
“[Lobby] was open, do you want to enter now?”
“Fuck [Yes]!”
Suddenly she was covered in blue light.
“Joan wait!”
Dillan hurriedly approaches her fast, but the moment he was about to reach her, she vanishes along with the blue light.

"EeEEellllleeeeeelllllleeeeeeuuuuuuu!" I, too, yelled a battle cry at the top of my lungs. I had no idea what Simon had just spouted but from Camilla's giggling, I could guess that Simon thought that spouting nonsense was his way of getting out of the earlier predicament. "I forbid death upon this day," Camilla said. "What?" I answered a bit at a loss. "Ancient Latin," she replied smugly, "He said 'I forbid death upon this day'." I laughed aloud "Then he is gonna be really disappointed in everyone here," Camilla did not reply and instead took a deep breath. I did the same, zoning out everything in my surroundings.

Find out this and much more in the first book of the Fat Boy Hero Series. -History of FBH- Fat Boy Hero is a story long in the making. The idea came from my love of hero stories, but the lack of relatable heroes. By that i mean there were no, or few heroes that dealt with weight gain. Something I have and am dealing with after leaving the Marine Corps. So Fat Boy Hero was born. Check out the link below to listen to an episode of The Round Table Podcast where I brainstormed the idea with the hosts and special guest Michael underwood. http://www.roundtablepodcast.com/2013/03/workshop-episode-53-guest-host-michael-r-underwood/ This book is a side project and will be updated as time permits. I hope you do not find this too off-putting.
