"Waah, this is disgusting!

" That comment came from Jana. Not far away was a giant centipede, 300 cm long and 60 cm wide, which was green in color but changed to yellow when the sun reflected off the centipede.

nJair took out his Hunter Card.

"What will we do? This centipede is at the peak of level 5.

"

n

"Of course we must fight!

" Despite the disgust and revulsion she was feeling, Jana was quite brave when facing a strong enemy.

n

"Even if it's at the peak of level 5. It doesn't mean it's impossible for us to kill.

" Breno took his spear and was ready to fight.

n

"So I'm going to start conjuring a fireball,

" Jana said and closed her eyes to concentrate better.

n

"Hey, is my opinion invalid?

" Jair felt dejected.

n

"If you don't want to fight, you can stand aside,

" Breno said coldly.

n

"Tsk, I didn't say I wouldn't…

" Jair was wondering if Breno was infected with some virus from his sister.

"You know what? Let's fight, why don't we?

"

n

"My next attack is something I learned recently. Instead of directly launching this ball of fire, I'll make it float, and then, like a mass of energy, fire arrows will form and fire at my enemy.

" Jana explained her ability and said,

"I'm using this now because it takes time to activate, and we also need to find the weak point of this centipede. If it attacks from several different directions it will help with that.

"

nThe boys nodded and waited for her to attack first.

n

"Very well, having said that, I will start!

" Taking a deep breath, it took a lot out of her, as the attack she was preparing was far beyond the control of a single fireball.

n

"Rain of fire!

"

nWith Jana's scream the arrows came out of the fireball, heading towards the centipede.

n*Whoosh!*

n*Bang! Bang! Bang...!*

nAn explosion sequence followed and a curtain of dust formed.

nFor a brief moment, the three put their arms in front of their faces, preventing the dust from affecting their eyes.

n*ROAR!*

nA bloodcurdling scream echoed.

nWhen the smoke screen was gone, a furious flaming centipede appeared. With a few legs missing, and with one eye missing, and a bleeding chest, the centipede glared menacingly at Jana, Jair, and Breno.

n

"This thing has more weaknesses than I imagined. Anyway, attack the eye if you can, or the legs and chest,

" Jana said.

n

"Alright!

" Jair and Breno didn't dare relax. They soon sprang into action. The first to approach was Jair with his high speed. He was quick and practical. Going to the right side, he cut off two legs and backed away, dodging the tail of the centipede as it tried to whip him.

nBreno went forward and attacked towards the centipede's eye, but for lack of knowledge he missed the target, as the centipede arched its neck, raising its entire front as if it were going to stand upright. Then it did the same thing it had done to Jair, whipping at him with its tail.

n*Bang!*

n

"Ahhh!

"

n

"Breno!

" Jana screamed in terror.

nBreno was not as fast as Jair. He was nervous as he saw the tail heading towards his direction and did not have time to use movement skills and took the full brunt of the impact.

nWith blood pouring from his mouth, he was hurled more than 5 meters away. His chest was heavily slashed, and even had a bit of his chestplate ripped, as the centipede's tail was sharp as a sword. If it wasn't because of his picking up so much speed, Breno wouldn't have escaped with a simple cut to his chest. But that was enough for him to be unable to continue fighting.

n*Cough!*

nPutting a hand to his chest, Breno coughed up blood as he stared in terror at the centipede.

n

"Damn you, die!!

" Looking like a sumo wrestler, Jana slashed the air with the palm of her hand, and because of that, flames were created whenever she attacked and were thrown with speed, giving the centipede no chance to dodge.

n'Where did she learn this? But more importantly, Breno!' Jair went to him.

nFrom the Hunter Card, Jair took an ointment which was specially made to stop bleeding and aid in healing.

n

"Don't move too much; let me apply this ointment,

" Jair said.

n

"Don't worry about me, *Cough, cough!* It'll help Jana,

" Breno said, coughing in pain.

nJair looked at his sister, and seeing her furiously attacking like a madwoman, he smiled wryly and said,

"Don't worry about her. She can handle things.

"

n'Now that she has seen her loved one hurt, how can she be calm?' Jair shook his head and began to treat Breno's wound.

n

"You damn monster, die, die, die!

" Jana's mana seemed inexhaustible. She attacked non-stop, causing explosion after explosion. She didn't even realize she had learned a new way to attack which was so fast and powerful.

n'How scary…' Jair shivered. He began to reflect and think that he should be more careful from now on when irritating his sister.

n

"Jana, stop; that thing must be dead by now!

" Jair couldn't stand to see the gruesome scene before him anymore.

n

"Mm? Seriously?

" Jana finally stopped, sweat running down her face with ragged breathing. She looked in the direction where the centipede was supposed to be but saw only debris, and if it weren't for the smell of burnt flesh and a few pieces here and there, she wouldn't even have guessed that there had been such a big monster there before.

nWhen she finally calmed down, Jana felt a little embarrassed at the way she acted; her cheeks and neck turned tomato red. Taking a deep breath and calming her fast breathing, she approached the two of them.

n

"How is he?

" Jana was deeply concerned. It was very clear by her soft, cautious tone when she asked.

"Breno, is it hurting a lot?

" She bit her bottom lip.

n

"Yeah.

" Although his breathing was labored and he coughed a little, he had already gotten better after Jair put on the ointment. Breno said slowly,

"I'm just in a little pain... Other than that, I'm fine. I'm sorry, I was careless....

"
