Chapter 324: Chapter 17 Forever Forget This World_3

But the lion was far more agile than the bear, and the massive lion easily dodged the warhorse’s charge. It immediately poised to pounce on Winters again, as Winters bit down hard, ready to throw his scimitar.

However, the mighty lion suddenly froze in place, and Winters was also stunned. He heard a sound that should not have been there, he heard a tender wail.

“Beast! Look at me!” Ralph yelled angrily.

Winters saw the hunter’s thigh was wounded, a horror to behold, with blood dripping down from the cuff of his trousers. What surprised him even more was what the old hunter was holding.

In Ralph’s hand was a lion cub.

The cub was only the size of a small cat, its eyes freshly opened. Held by the scruff of its neck in front of the old hunter, it called out pitifully to its mother.

Only then did Winters realize that the giant lion before him was a lioness and she had recently become a mother.

The lioness didn’t immediately attack Ralph; it sat with a mournful cry in response to the cub’s call.

The next moment, the old hunter plunged a knife into the soft belly of the lion cub, slashing down viciously, the newly opened eyes of the Little Lion witnessed its own belly being ripped open.@@novelbin@@

Winters felt a buzzing in his skull, a chill from the top of his head to his fingertips.

The mother lion let out a piercing howl that made all creatures shiver, launching itself at the old hunter like a demon.

“Come on!” the old hunter stood his ground, not dodging or evading.

“No!” Winters threw his military saber. The moment the blade left his hand, he entered a Spell-casting state, pouring all the magic power he could muster into the military saber.

The lioness didn’t dodge or avoid either, but it was too fast; the military saber failed to hit its head and instead skewered three inches off target into its spine.

With its spine severely injured, the lioness didn’t hesitate, continuing to pounce towards the old hunter and reaching him in the blink of an eye.

Ralph pushed his left arm into the giant lion’s gaping maw, and the lion bit down hard, severing the hunter’s arm at the elbow.

Ralph was knocked down by the mother lion, and as the giant lion ravaged him, stepping on his chest, the old hunter’s left arm was ripped directly from his body.

However, the hunter achieved his goal; as the giant lion tore off his arm, he also left a terrifying gash in the lioness’ abdomen.

The lioness’s entrails spilled out, but it continued to rip into the hunter. The hunter also used his last strength to slice open the lioness’ belly.

Everything happened too fast for Winters to intervene. He hit the giant lion with all his might, knocking the several hundred kilogram beast off balance. The lioness stepped on its intestines, pulling even more organs from its gaping abdominal wound.

Winters shielded the old hunter, and the lioness, looking at Ralph who was now lifeless, howled mournfully, picked up the cub’s body with its mouth, and dragged its bowels to disappear into the bushes, leaving behind a trail of blood.

Blood sprayed from Ralph’s terrible shoulder wound, and through the hole, one could even see his heart in his chest cavity.

Winters wanted to stop the old hunter’s bleeding but didn’t know where to begin, as the hunter’s chest, shoulders, and neck were fatally wounded. He held the hunter, who was barely breathing, tears unstoppable.

“My debt… is paid…” the dying hunter struggled to utter, his lungs spewing from his mouth, “Look… look after my son…”

The hunter’s body suddenly went limp, his pupils dilated, his eyes dimming as he died in Winters’ arms, leaving this world forever behind.

“Winters Montagne’s Book of Spells”

(This spellbook, being carried around all year round, is worn out and the sides are stained black and yellow. The owner has crossed out and modified much of the content, adding many notes in the margins. In the corner of the title page, there is an abbreviation: W.M.)

Spell: Startle Beasts

Type: Composite Spell/Druide Divine Art imitation

Spellcasting Materials: The dung and urine of large wild beasts

Description: Mimic the sounds and scents of large beasts to scare herbivores and smaller wild animals.

Note 1: Mr. L said that when wild animals encounter each other in the wild, they don’t start fighting right away. Most of the time they just roar at each other until one side gives in and withdraws. Perhaps this spell is also effective against larger predatory animals.

Note 2: It works on lions, tested, but only for a short while.
