Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

*Swish* *Swish* *Swish*

In the middle of the dark streets of Evernight, a young man could be seen running as fast as a bullet. His right hand was holding a dark sword and his left hand was holding the hilt of the sword.

His eyes kept moving left and right as he slashed swiftly with his sword. With each move he made, a loud scream followed by the sound of a corpse falling down to the ground, bloodied and with a horrified look filling its face.

Night lurkers were small in size, barely bigger than a dog. They had a head that was shaped like a pointy pencil. Their yellow glowing eyes were their most distinct feature.

These monsters had already reached deeper into the city and started praying on the unconscious civilians.

With their sharp claws and fangs, they were able to shred the people's necks as if it was a piece of paper and then start consuming them.

In a matter of minutes, hundreds of people died without even knowing that they were eaten alive.

But, these monsters were getting smaller and smaller in size as Acht moved around the streets cleaning them as if they were bugs and not an extremely dangerous bunch of monsters.

After killing the last monster in one of the streets, Acht halted his steps and cleaned the blood from his cheek before looking up.

The clones were still standing still in their places not moving an inch even after a period of time.

His sharp eyes squinted as he examined each one of them individually. Somehow, he had this weird feeling that they were looking at him.

It wasn't as if they were just looking in his general direction coincidentally or because he was killing monsters, it was a whole different reason.

Each one of them had this weird frown on their face whenever they caught a glimpse of Acht as he appeared and disappeared from one place to another.

Acht could describe it as if they were fearing him for some reason.

However, not even 2 seconds passed and he had to swing his sword again. He pierced the heart of the monster that tried to sneak from behind him like they usually do.

'Sigh, they are just like insects. Weak but come in huge numbers.' He mumbled under his breath.

'I should finish the hunting and then train.' He thought before vanishing again into the veil of the night, leaving behind him a trail of blood and flesh as if he was a grim reaper.

**************************

In a secret room in an unknown place, 30 or so people were sitting around a table. The room was dark with only one source of light.

No one could see the other's face and no one could also discern the voice of another person there.

It was a totally secret meeting that will not spill out who was attending it.

Each one of the presents was silent as the heavy atmosphere weighed down on each one of them greatly.

"This is the worst scenario. A whole invasion is announced and we have to make a decision of whether or not we should surrender or not in less than 3 days. This is stupid!" A person who no one could discern whether it was a man or woman spoke as they smashed the table.

"They seem to have already been here for no less than 3 decades and we couldn't even sense their presence. Not even once. This is ridiculous."

A person then spoke out to calm them down.

"There is no point in speaking about the past. We have to think of the present. What should we do?" He asked.

Silence took place again as everyone pondered over their possible choices.

"I think we should fight back!" One said.

Even though some of them nodded their heads, there were also others who didn't agree at all.

"You think it's that easy? We didn't prepare our armies nor do we have enough weapons to start a war on such a huge scale."

"Then do you suggest that we just surrender and become fucking slaves?!" The other responded.

"No! But we should speak with these people first. They said some very crucial keywords when they first came here. 'The Land Of The Reincarnated'. That's a very weird name."

"Yes, that's a very crucial piece of information they mentioned. If their words were really true, then reincarnation might exist in our world." One added.

"Reincarnation, huh? That's a term you don't hear every day. But, the most important thing is that they are not some kind of humanoid creatures. That might help us negotiate with them."

'Negotiate?' Everyone thought the idea seemed to be very attractive.

If they could negotiate with these invaders, they might come to an agreement without surrendering or going into a war where countless will die in vain.

However, how should they negotiate with these creatures? They didn't seem to be the kind of people to accept sharing or getting compensation.

"What could we offer as a good compensation?" Someone asked.

Then, like a rain, suggestions kept popping out from each and every one there. They suggested soul stones, weapons, money, and even a piece of land. But, that all didn't seem to be the best choice.

"Sigh, I think we should just meet them first and then we could discern what they wanted clearly."

Most of them nodded in agreement.

"So, who should represent us?"

No one wanted to raise their hands since they felt extremely nervous and also hesitant. Their life was on the line after all.

However, one of them raised his hand.

He then stood up and revealed his face to everyone.

After that, with a cold look, the woman said to everyone.

"I will go."

They all gasped in surprise since they didn't expect this person to reveal their identity.

'I will have to end this matter before it becomes a huge mess.' Leislet thought with a determined look.
