In desperation, I kept screaming into Kat''s ear. My two colonists and Lara also kept calling out the amber-eyed girl in a loud voice. However, Kat stayed where she was and took aim while Rox barked forward. It was dark, and the lighting was minimal. I bet Kat could barely see anything. The girl''s chances of survival were slim.


    "Damn it, Kat! You have to go up!" Pif was about toe down from the tree, but Lara held her breath.


    "Are you crazy!?" The blonde-haired girl snapped. "You could die if you go down now!"


    The ttering sound grew clearer.


    "I''m sick of having to leave other people to die!" Suddenly Kat screamed, making me and the others flinch. Although her face remained expressionless, her tears flowed.


    Lara replied, "He''s just a dog, Kat! You can tame another dog, or buy one from a merchant…."


    "You don''t understand, Lara." Seb cut off the blonde-haired girl''s words. "For her, that dog is her bestpanion, maybe even more than us."


    "Yes, I agree wit Seb." Pif sighed and wiped his face. "She really loves Rox. They are inseparable."


    "Why the fuck are we talking about this!?" Lara looked even more frustrated. "Down there, a member of your tribe is about to die!"


    "Arggghhhhh!!!" Kat drew her bow while the monsters were already a few meters away from her.


    However, suddenly another scream was echoed in the air. Then, a figure that came from nowhere appeared and attacked the stump scorpions using arge machete, which Gai previously held. In no time, the monsters fell down with gaping shes oozing white liquid.


    Kat widened her eyes and lowered her bow. I then pressed the pause button, and went over to the figure to check who it was.


    She was a woman with a body full of wounds that were bleeding profusely. Her clothes, which only slightly covered her body, were also in tatters. However, her terrible condition was not reflected in her face, which still looked as ruthless as when I saw her rampage this afternoon.


    Leva? You still alive?


    I almost breathed a sigh of relief, but with her condition now, I''m not sure she can hold out much longer. She should have passed out a long time ago.


    Minutes passed, I pondered, thinking about what to do. However, I soon realized that there was nothing else I could do other than hitting the y button and watch it all happen. I still can''t control Leva.


    What kind of gamey doesn''t let you control your characters?


    Taking a deep breath, I pressed the y button. Leva continued to sh at the monsters by jumping here and there. In my eyes, her movements were still as solid and fast as they had been this afternoon. And with such dark conditions, she could move smoothly like that.


    Insane.


    However, maybe because the type of weapon she was holding wasn''t that long and because it was already dark, her attacks weren''t optimal. Several stump scorpions managed to escape.


    Kat shot the monsters one by one. The people in the trees didn''t stay still either. Pif and Lara also opened fire on the stump scorpions that were approaching Kat. Even Rox also attacked. The dog bit the pincer of one of the small stump scorpions, then shook it brutally. The monster mmed, and in a short time, its pincer separated, sending its body flying. And, of course, the dog didn''t end there. It attacked another stump scorpion and did the same.


    In a short time, the monsters became few in number. That''s because they weren''t as many as before when they were near the settlement. However, I know that the worst is yet toe.


    "Heaah!!!" Leva stabbed her machete into one of the stump scorpions the size of a backpack.


    And after that, a huge, menacing figure emerged from the darkness. The giant stump scorpion is now alone because itsrades are dead butchered.


    Weird. Why didn''t it join the attack earlier? Did that monster sacrifice itsrades to weaken its opponent?


    "Hold on, don''t shoot!" I gave orders to my colonists. Pif and Kat lowered their bows, and Lara followed them.


    If they attack now, I''m afraid the stump scorpion will just go berserk and make things worse.


    Leva drew her machete from the monster she had just killed. Then, shouting for the umpteenth time, she dashed forward. The giant monster was about to catch the red-haired woman, but Leva slid on the ground. Then, Leva shed one of her enemy''s legs.


    The sh did inflict a wound, but it was insignificant. Leva had to make more shes, but none of her attacks were clean as the monster moved its legs to spin backward.


    Leva jumped back, then continued to dodge the pincers of the giant stump scorpion''s pincers. I remember Reha''s body was split in two when the pincers caught him. And so, every time Leva made an evasive move, I took a breath. The woman continued to escape death.


    Over time, Leva can dodge more easily. Now she can read the enemy''s attack. In addition to avoiding the catches that keeping, she also starts attacking, asionally sliding or jumping onto the monster''s upper body to stab and sh.


    I noticed she was attacking the monster''s right pincer more.


    The monster''s body was now covered with wounds. Its movements also slowed down, especially in the right pincer. Even so, everything still looks grim to me. Leva''s movements began to slow down and were not as steady as before.


    And then, the monster shed its ws hard and hit Leva, made Leva''s body flying several meters, thennded on the ground with a loud thud.


    Even so, the woman still tried to get up, despite the difficulties. She kept moaning in pain. Her body was also shaking hard. That attack must have had an extraordinary effect, even though what hit Leva''s body was the pincer''s back, not the one for cutting.


    The woman looked around to look for her machete, but she couldn''t find it anywhere, even though the giant monster was getting closer and closer.
