"Lady Lionaa!" A man with cat-like ears on his head waved his hand excitedly as he saw a woman walking in front of him. From how his tail was wagging and his ears were twitching, it was clear that the man wasn't faking his excitement.
He was actually happy the see the woman in front of him.
The woman, however, just smiled and walked away without giving too much attention to the man.
When the woman left, the man sighed and then sat on his chair dejectedly.
"Hahaha~ You really have a thing for Lady Lionaa, don't you Ajax?" The man's friend, who was sitting beside him laughed and teased. Just like the man, his friend was a Catman as well.
"I do have feelings for her…" Ajax nodded but then, he sighed.
"But she doesn't put me in her eyes."
An elderly man, who was sitting beside the 2 men shook his head and muttered,
"Don't get dejected, unlike us, Lady Lionaa is Lionwoman, she is strong and has a big responsibility on her back.
She is not interested in romantic relationships."
"I understand that but…" Ajax wasn't convinced, however, he couldn't come up with a reply. The man in front of him was the Village chief; he is knowledgeable and is someone who had most interactions with Lady Lionaa in the whole village.
His words cannot be taken with a grain of salt.
"Ah, Chief, I suddenly remembere-" Ajax's friend wanted to question something, however, he was interrupted.
*Ding* *Ding* *Ding*
And he wasn't interrupted by something good.
"Chief? Why are they ringing the bells? Is this some sort of practice?" Ajax was quick to calm himself and questioned.
"No… if there was a drill like this, I would have been informed beforehand…" The Village Chief answered with a pale face.
Ajax's face paled as well and he questioned,
"Chief… does that mean… we are u-"
"What the hell are you doing!? Don't you all hear the bell sounds!? We are being attacked! Move your asses, take out your weapons and get ready to fight!!"
Suddenly, Ajax heard a thunderous roar, he then glanced in the direction of the voice and soon, his eyes fell on a woman standing with a giant sword in her hands.
She had lion ears on her head, a muscular body and a tail that was not moving, this showed how calm she was even in this situation.
'Heh. It was too presumptuous for me to go after her.'
Ajax thought inwardly, then, a dagger appeared in his hand and he prepared to fight.
Seeing Ajax, the village chief and his friends took out their daggers as well and their eyes shined with a determined glint.
Not only them, but after hearing Lionaa's order, every single villager, except for the children and the old ones, prepared themselves to fight as they took out their daggers.
"The ones who dared to attack our Neko Village,
Will Die."
The village chief shouted.
"YEAAHHHHHH!!" The other villagers roared in excitement as well.
They are going to show just how strong their village was!
Catmen, although they weren't the strongest of the Beastmen race, they were definitely nimble and fast.
This made them great assassins, although they are in a disadvantageous position since it was a head-on war, that doesn't mean they can't fight back at all.
They can fight back and,
They were going to win!
However, the Catmen didn't know who their opponents were.
As they rushed towards the Village's entrance, the Catmen's eyes fell on 50 humans that were standing in front of them.
There were 200 Catmen who could fight in Neko Village.
They had the advantage in numbers.
However, there was no trace of happiness on their faces.
They could feel it.
They could feel the scary and ominous aura coming out of these humans.
Even Lionaa had a solemn look on her face.
She could sense that the leader of this group was a Master Stage Cultivator.
She was only a Peek Advance Stage Cultivator, of course, it wasn't a problem for her to face the Master Stage Cultivator alone.
However, the problem was, besides her, there were only 10 Cultivators in the Neko Village, and all of them were just beginner stage Cultivators.
There was no way they could fight these humans who only had cultivators in their ranks.
"Humans, why are you attacking us?"
She then stepped forward and questioned.
She didn't ask why they were there.
It was clear from the weapons in their hand and…
And the dead body of one Catman that was lying in front of those humans,
They weren't here with good intentions.
She just wanted to know why they were doing something like this.
Actually, she doesn't want to know that as well, she just wanted to gain some time so that the elders and children can escape.
However, as if they knew what she was thinking, the humans didn't reply.
Their leader stepped on the dead body in front of him then, he rushed toward them. The other humans followed him as well and rushed towards the Catmen.
There were no traps, no formations, no plans, they were just rushing towards Neko Cat village as if they were sure of their victory.
Lionaa's eyes turned cold, she then pointed her giant sword and roared.
"I will take on the leader! You fight the others! Remember 5 men will attack 1. Don't be overly brave and stupid. Now,
KILL!"
"KILLL!!!"
Lionaa and Catmen rushed forward.
*Clank*
Lionaa's giant sword and the human leader's sword clashed with each other.
"You will pay for what you have done!" Lionaa roared in anger and then attacked.
"…" The human did not reply.
He just continued fighting and attacked Lionna's neck.
Lionaa dodged, she then tried to attack his stomach, however, unlike how she predicted where the man would try to dodge her attack, the man continued with his attacks, trying to slash her neck.
"This Bastard!"
Lionaa roared in anger, she then quickly jumped back and tried to position herself.
The man who was fighting her, however, didn't give her any chance to do that.
He rushed forward and attacked again.
Lionaa dodged and attacked again, however, just like before, the man didn't care about her attack and continued attacking.
"What kind of crazy fighting style is that!? Are you insane!?" Lionaa roared.
This man was completely insane.
It seemed as if his fighting style followed the style of, 'I'll die, but I'll take you down with me!'
A completely insane fighting style.
He attacked like crazy, without the care of his life. He was full of openings, however, Lionaa knew that as soon as she attacked, she would be attacked as well and both of them would be injured.
The man might not care about any injury, however, she did.
After this, she had to fight other humans as well, she can't get too injured here.
Thinking about this, she turned around to see how others were doing,
Her eyes then widened in surprise when she noticed something.
Things were a lot better than she previously thought.
The Catmen were faring well.
The Catmen quickly divided themselves into teams of 5, each team facing one cultivator.
Just like the man she was fighting, the other cultivators attacked without the care of their life, the Catmen were having a hard time fighting however, since they had numbers with them, the things got a little easier.
They divided the roles.
2 Catmen blocked the attack while the other three try to attack the human, this was the plan.
Since the Catmen weren't strong, the damage they did was minimal, however, something was better than nothing.
They were faring well.
A small smile appeared on Lionaa's face, all that analysis she did was under one second and she was happy with what she saw.
She then turned back to the man in front of her.
The man was already close to her and he slashed his sword again, trying to cut Lionaa's neck,
*Clank*
Lionaa, however, blocked his attack with her sword, the man then quickly pulled back his sword and attacked again.
'What a crude way of fighting!'
Lionaa couldn't help but mutter inwardly.
She was indeed having trouble facing her enemy.
However, she was a Lionkin, fighting was engraved in her blood. She was a natural-born fighter. After fighting this man for over a minute, she understood his style.
A small smile appeared on her face, she dodged the incoming attack and just like before, the human attacked again, however, this time Lionaa already knew what he was going to do, therefore, she stepped aside and stabbed her sword into the man's forearm.
For the first time, Lionaa's heard the man's voice and that was in a form of,
"AAAGGGHHHHHH!!!"
*Clank*
The man roared in pain and his sword fell to the ground.
"Just a little stab like that breaks the maximum pain threshold?
Tsk Tsk. Just how weak could these humans be?"
On the other side, a being who was watching everything shook his head, then, he snapped his finger.
