Chapter 74 74 Shoot
Diana was unimpressed by the whole routine. She felt that there were too many useless movements compared to her gun which she could instantly pull and shoot as she displaced the safety.
She allowed the swordsman to display his might and act out his routine.
The swordsman on the other hand thought that the girl was frozen in place and looked towards the guards who had already pulled out their swords and were vigilant of him. He needed to get rid of the guards if he wanted to get to the girl.
Upon finding a guard who immediately retreated to the back of the group, the swordsman cursed as he deduced who the guard was. It was a mage.
The swordsman rushed towards the mage with his sword drawn as the other guards tried to stop him. With a loud clanging sound, he pushed the guards backwards. The strength behind his slashes was enough to force back the two guards simultaneously.
The swordsman didn\'t wait for the two guards with broken posture and reached the mage just as he was about to finish chanting some kind of spell and slashed his sword horizontally.
Fortunately, the armor being worn by the mage was durable enough to withstand the attack of the swordsman. The mage only received a shallow slash wound on his abdomen that would otherwise have cut him in half if not for the armor.
Raisman had a smug look on his face as he witnessed how useless the enemy mage was in front of the swordsman of his family. He couldn\'t help but curse his father once again for stopping him from challenging Zach that day. He was sure that he could have won easily had his father not stopped him from taking any action.
Even though it was far from fatal the blood loss had rendered the mage delirious which kept him from casting his spells. The swordsman barely faced any trouble as he stabbed through the mage\'s defenses in his next try. Blood oozed out of those injuries constantly but thanks to the healing magic cast by Diana, the mage\'s life was saved.
The swordsman didn\'t stop but stabbed through the mages who had yet to take part in the battle. These ones were responsible for the personal safety of their young lady and hadn\'t taken any action against the swordsman yet. Thanks to their stoic attitude and poor situational awareness they lost their ability to fight before they could even take action.
The swordsman on the other hand was like a typhoon that had struck the ranks of the Luther family group. He was like a whirlwind cutting down every single man that made up Diana\'s forces. His close quarter combat was so powerful that the guards of the Luther family could barely react before being cut down by his katana like sword.
Raisman had a cruel smile on his face as he saw the monstrosity that he had unleashed. He was already imagining his win and how he would rub it in the face of his cowardly father who had bowed down to Zach. He wanted to show him how a battle was fought from a lower vantage point.
All his life Raisman had looked up to his father because he had never acted weak in front of anyone. But in front of Zach his father\'s cunning methods had all failed one by one. Raisman was going to surpass his father by doing what he could not.
He was sure of his win in this battle since the swordsman he had brought with him was invincible. Not a single mage was able to cast any spell in front of him.
Looking at Diana who remained unperturbed as she cast healing spells here and there, Raisman had a perverted look on his face. He was already fantasizing all the things he was going to do to her once she was in his hands, which according to him was already an inevitable fact.
Raisman stared at Diana like a hungry wolf who wanted to devour every inch of her body. His lust was practically oozing out of his body and his gaze disgusted and sent shivers through Diana\'s skin.
Just as all women could instinctively feel such stares directed at their bodies, Diana could also feel a gaze penetrating her from her back as she focused on the battle between the swordsman and her guards.
She had not interfered in the battle until now because she wanted to let her subordinates know how weak they were in front of any hostile source. That was the reason she hadn\'t pulled out the gun that was still holstered at her side.
She cast healing spells from time to time but didn\'t go out of her way to save any one. The guards needed to know their weaknesses so the Luther family could progress as a whole. They couldn\'t keep relying on others for survival after all Zach could not keep taking care of them forever.
BUT the dirty gaze of the mongrel standing at her back, the animal who didn\'t even bother to hide his lust was pushing her buttons one by one. Veins popped at the side of her forehead as an animalistic growl escaped her mouth.
Raisman laughed out loud at her desperate reaction as he chose amongst the countless ways he had planned to ravage her body. Just the thought of cuckolding that bastard Zach made his body shiver in anticipation. Not to mention that the girl in question was someone he had coveted for a long time.
Diana finally lost patience as she heard Raisman\'s laugh. Her hand went straight towards the holster at her side and pulled out the pistol that her master had given to her.
Since it was already loaded, there was no delay as she displaced the safety and pointed the gun straight towards the swordsman who was busy cutting down the guards who could barely even touch him.
*Boom*
The swordsman who had been fluttering about non-stop appeared to be suffering from some sort of paralysis as his body stopped mid motion following the explosive sound from the barrel of her pistol.
Silence reigned all around as if someone had pressed the mute button for the whole world. What Diana had done was nothing less than a miracle even for those who had been used to magic in their world. Even magic wasn\'t as effective as the gun that had managed to silence the swordsman wreaking havoc amidst their lines.
Raisman didn\'t even know what had happened until a loud thump was heard and the swordsman fell on the spot with a small hole at the side of his forehead. Blood flowed out of his head like juice from a burst watermelon.
Raisman noticed the lifeless eyes and terror took over his body. He still couldn\'t understand how his most powerful man could have died without making a sound.
Without giving the ambushers a chance to come out of the shock of the death of the swordsman, Diana pulled the trigger several times as she aimed at the men encircling her group one by one.
Not a single bullet missed its mark as a body fell with each firing sound.
Luna, who had been hiding in the shadows, couldn\'t help but cheer on Diana who killed her opponents expressionlessly like a seasoned killer.
When Diana stopped firing, the encirclement carefully planned by Raisman was nowhere to be seen. Diana had single handedly taken care of it all with the help of the pistol.
Raisman was out of his senses as he witnessed Diana using some tube like weapon to take care of his men. Every time that thing flashed, his men fell as the bled from their heads.
He couldn\'t help but think about the way that the Tamer had died. It was definitely dark magic. That bastard Zach had taught Diana his ways.
The same Diana who had been like an angel with healing magic was now killing men like chickens with coldness in her eyes.
"I need to run" was the only thought in his mind as Raisman turned around to make off. A *Boom* rang out once again but this time it wasn\'t the head that burst open but the knee. He felt something pierce his knee and then a soul shaking pain sent him rolling on the ground.
How could Diana let the mongrel escape after all that he had done? He had not only terrorized her for so long but he had also worried her master all this time. Even though Diana had told Zach that she could take care of herself, she knew that Zach hadn\'t stopped worrying about her from the way he looked during their daily practice.
He treated her like she was a fragile being even though he hadn\'t been like that before.
This made Diana feel selfish as she rejected his offer for extra protection but she was adamant on not taking any more advantage of Zach than she already had. The man taught her how to use his personal weapons. She couldn\'t even dare to imagine the worth of such advanced weaponry that even mages couldn\'t react against.
She was willing to do anything for Zach. So how could she let the bastard who had worried Zach escape so easily? She wanted to torture the soul out of him.
Luna was getting more and more excited with the turn of events. She had thought that Diana was a soft girl but the way she took care of the enemies today made her respect this human somewhat. Luna had severe hatred for Raisman and seeing him lying on the ground trying to crawl away from Diana gave her immense satisfaction.
