Chapter 252: When fun changes to dangers! (2)
He looked in the front and there it was, one of the many trees yet this one was different.
It was going to be his anchor and savior.
Lucas grabbed it in contact, his arms wide as if he was hugging the tree, even after doing this, he couldn't grab it properly so he did what he was good at.
He let go and at the next second, his sword struck in the trunk completely cracking it in the process.
Lucas hung with the help of his sword and looked down, it was still pretty high. He took out the dagger from his pouch and struck it down to where the expanse of his left arm could reach.

The dagger went in completely and just like that, Lucas made his way down, it was pretty easy aside from the fact that his sword's and the dagger's durability were going down with each hit.
'Using something that is not made for such tasks is just painful to look at, the sword is not going to last if I keep going like this…'
Lucas realized, the dagger and the sword were not made for striking inside trees and holding like this. They were made to slice and strike, not as a pull-up bar.
When he got down to a considerate level, Lucas let go and started falling down.
BAM!!
Lucas did a squat and hit in the middle after falling down, the squat was perfect showing how much he had practiced it in his free time.
He fell on his butt and was finally able to take a good breather. The air in the forest became better than before. Each breath invigorated his body and mind.
"BASTARD! LOOK WHAT YOU DID! Unngh!"
Lucas looked back and saw the girl he had got along with so fine. Sarah had her arm in a very disturbing direction. It was completely rotated and flipped.
"How did you get hurt?" Lucas asked in between breaths. It was like the capacity of his lungs had decreased considerably.
"Haahh? It was your fault! You made me go so fast that stopping became such injuries. Look at my beast!"
Lucas looked at the fury who was on the ground with a normal expression yet blood was flowing out of it. But it was no problem for the fury, it was as normal as it was, looking at Lucas with sharp eyes.
"Is it damaged a lot? Can it stand?"
"…. FUCK! I am in so much pain! Stay quiet and help!" Sandra shouted, and a tear fell from her left eye.
It was the first time Lucas saw her ever injured to such an extent. In his mind, it was a good thing.
"Get up fast, we are being late. Let's go home."
"W-What? Have you become heartless too?!"
Lucas got near her and gave her a hand with a sigh, he didn't want to. In his eyes, there was an opportunity to train even in this injury.
Sandra took it with the uninjured hand and got up, her arm was totally rotated.
"I might actually make this bone dislocation even worse, why haven't you healed yourself till now."
"I have no mana... and the bottles of mana potion all broke when I fell…"
Lucas nodded in agreement, he saw the broken bottles near the soil and the fury just a few feet ahead.
He gave a vial of his own to her.
Sandra snatched and drank it all in one gulp.
It took a minute for the potions to kick in. Sandra closed her eyes and focused, soon, her shoulder and arm blazed up in white fire. (Pic in this comment)
After that, it was pretty much very normal, the fire of the healing kept blazing and Lucas did not let anything get in the way of her healing.
POP
"KKKAHHHHHHHHAA!!!!!!!"
Lucas went and grabbed her by the waist before she could fall.
The case of the dislocation may have been more severe than he had thought. Now, her arm, hand, and shoulder looked normal yet she was too exhausted.
Sweat trailed from her face, especially her forehead that traced its way to her chest drenching the leather piece too.
The blaze of the healing had some kind of normal heat, it was not harmful yet it made the temperature very hot.
Lucas went and kept her on the fury that did not attack him. But Lucas knew it had no intelligence of its own but because of the order that Sandra had given it to not attack him.
"Follow Lucas…" She muttered and the fury obliged.
Even while standing, it went behind Lucas and stopped.
Lucas chuckled at its antics and seeing that Sandra was out of it again, he decided to walk back.
Just a single look at the map made him get the direction he had to go.
For a long time, there was silence, Lucas had done something he was not natural with. It needed diligence with the aura.
Right now, his aura was very murderous, the whole area around him reeked of death.
Any creature no matter what it was would not come to him right now if it had good instincts.
The fury was unfazed, it was dead anyway. Sandra was sleeping yet she was uncomfortable with it.
Lucas even felt like she was going to wake up because of it anytime soon.
Yet time passed and that did not happen, in the end, they reached the shelter with her still out of it.
Many looked at them opening the gate of the shelter's defense.
At first, they could only see Lucas and then when he went to the side, they saw another silhouette following inches from Lucas's back.
Lucas stopped and came close to the fury before anyone could say anything.
He jerked Sandra a little and she didn't wake up. Admitting defeat, he finally tapped hard on her injured shoulder.
"KYAAA!!"
'So it won't attack me as long as she doesn't command huh.'
"Hey! What is that thing?" Sean shouted with interest and scare at the same time.
He was going to move toward it yet he had his hand grabbed by someone.
Lucas looked at the serious expression on Ella's face and her reluctance to send his son near.
"What is that thing?"
