While Nock was in a "race" against time in the river, the Ripper on the shore had already found Anna and blocked her in a dark alley.

"Ann...... Na ......"

[Ripper] pressed step by step, with a little jealousy and ...... in anger on his face Complex?

"Don't come here!"

Anna exclaimed, "Don't defile your eyes with your ugly appearance! ”

"Ugly...... Ugly? ”

The Ripper looked at Anna and looked down at his clawed arm again.

"Nope! … Ugly...... No...... Want! ”

"Roar!"

The Ripper roared like madness, slamming his hands into the walls around him.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

With a burst of knocking, the sound of concussions spread all around.

"Bang dang!" On the second floor of the roadside building, a window was slammed open, and a figure stood at the window, scolding.

"It's endless! It's noisy! And let not let people sleep! ”

"Shhh

Anna looked at the open window with a stunned expression, to be precise, she was looking at the person in the window.

She wanted to know whose believer it was, who was so brave and dared to shout at the monster in front of her!

[Ripper] didn't expect that it would be scolded by a passerby!

For a while, he raised his fists and looked at the wall in front of him in embarrassment, and then turned his head to look at the black window, the same black figure, the hammer is not it, and it is not put down.

What should it do? Wait online, it's in a hurry!

Ahem, it's on the stage.

Just when Anna thought it was going to be angry, [Ripper] dropped her fists in embarrassment and shouted at the man in the window.

"Sleep...... Jue Jue ...... Roar! ”

"I'm dripping! There are monsters! ”

Perhaps frightened by the voice of the [Ripper], the person in the window was so frightened that he closed the window with a "Mom".

The whole street was calm again.

“……”

Anna was speechless, thinking that she had really met a stupid and bold person who was not afraid of death, but it turned out to be just a guy who was sleeping.

Ending this farcical episode, both Anna and [The Ripper] refocus their attention on the other.

The Ripper landed on all fours and slowly approached Anna like a beast.

Anna leaned against the wall at the end of the alley, looking at the beastly [Ripper], not worried at all.

Instead, he put his right hand into his coat and held tightly what he had hidden in his arms.

She glanced vaguely at her surroundings, trying to see if there would be any surprises from before.

What follows is not for witnesses.

[Ripper] looked at the woman who was close at hand, and his brain wanted to rush up and tear open the other party's chest with his claws, to see if this woman's heart was red or black.

But in his heart, he instinctively resisted, and a voice seemed to tell him: stay away from this woman, this woman is dangerous!

"Ann...... Graceful...... Die! ”

In the end, it was the bloodlust in its heart that overcame the fear in its heart.

[Ripper] runs two steps on all fours, and pounces on Anna, who has nowhere to run.

Seeing this, Anna suddenly stretched out her right hand hidden in her clothes, and held a piece of brocade tightly in her hand.

Anna's behavior made the [Ripper] who threw himself in the air wonder.

After all, in the face of danger, the first reaction of human beings is either to run away or resist.

Could it be that this woman was stupid and didn't move?

No, she moved.

Did she reach out and hold up the brocade to wave the white flag and surrender?

But the brocade is not white!

Although [Ripper] had doubts in his heart, there was no trace of doubt in the movements of his hands.

It had already pounced in front of Anna, raised its right paw glowing with cold light, and grabbed it at Anna in front of him.

"Boom!"

A bombardment rang out, and the entire alley was lit up by a red light.

The Ripper, covered in blood, flew through the air towards the road outside the alley.

"Bang!"

The Ripper fell down the street, motionless, motionless.

On the ground, a pool of blood spread around the body of the [Ripper].

Anna held the brocade glowing red in her hand and looked at the [Ripper] smashed down the street with a smug expression.

Sure enough, the brocade in her hand was a treasure.

It seems that I underestimated this thing before!

Anna pressed the joy in her heart and quickly took the shiny brocade into her arms.

Just before there was such a big movement, Kendi caught the attention of the nocturnal wandering pros.

She didn't want to be found out that she had such a treasure on her.

She lifted the hem of her skirt and cautiously approached the Ripper, who was lying on the ground motionless. 】

It's not that she's too careful, it's that she's well aware of the monster's cunning.

Don't look at it motionless now, as if it was unconscious, God knows if it's pretended, just wait for itself to suddenly jump up and give yourself a few blows when you come forward!

Anna isn't stupid.

Besides, she's not in a hurry.

Don't forget, she has bodyguards.

After so much time, her bodyguards should be almost there.

Moreover, the movement here is so big, other professionals should be about to arrive.

Anna's analysis was not wrong, but she had just guessed the identity of the person who appeared first.

The first to arrive at the scene was not Nock Lane's bodyguard.

Rather, it's a monster hunter nearby.

He was already looking for prey nearby, so naturally he would not let go of the movement here.

Because, this is his territory.

He wanted to know who would dare to snatch prey on his turf.

Only, when he arrived at the place.

What I saw was a monster that had fallen to the ground and was not moving, and a woman in a cloak and trembling.

Don't ask him why he knew it was a woman.

What man would wear a lady dress and then a cape!

Only ladies who like to sneak out in the middle of the night to cheat would dress like this.

It's just that......

Isn't that kind of noble lady usually surrounded by servants or guards to protect her?

Why is this person alone in front of him?

Oh, don't think that a lady cheats on what a secret thing it is.

In fact, it is a public matter in aristocratic circles.

But don't just give people a handle in an open and honest way.

After all, their husbands may have rested in some of their wives' beds.

tacitly this kind of thing, the aristocratic circle is very slippery.

Kidd is the monster hunter in this area, and this is his "turf".

After discovering that the monster has lost its threat.

With a puzzled expression, he put away the bow and crossbow in his left hand, and only held the one-handed sword in his right hand.

He came to the monster's "corpse" with his sword in hand, looked at the woman a few steps away, and asked suspiciously.

"Ma'am, what's going on here? Is it the monster you knocked down? ”

Although the lady in front of him did not look like a professional, he still maintained the most basic vigilance.

After all, it's hard to tell a person's profession from how they dress.

What's more, professionals can also marry.

Who made only him and this woman in front of two humans.

Anna looked at Kidd in disappointment, shook her head and denied, "I'm sorry, sir." I don't know what's going on. The monster was after me, and I ran into the alley in desperation. Then I heard a loud bang, and when I came out and looked, I saw that the monster had fallen to the ground. ”

"That's right! Could you please escort me to my guards? My guard fought this monster just now to cover me, but the monster came after him, but he didn't catch up, and I was worried about ......"

What she was worried about, Anna didn't say it explicitly, but Kidd guessed what she meant.

The monsters have caught up, and the guards who left behind to cover are naturally dead or escaped.

But Kidd didn't say that.

For a woman who just escaped death, this answer is a bit hurtful.

"Madam, otherwise, I'll take care of this monster for you, and then I'll take care of the monster and escort you home. What do you think? ”

"Huh?" Anna looked at Kidd in embarrassment, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Okay...... bar. But please hurry, I'...... I'm scared. ”

At this time, Anna has long lost the calmness she used to face [Ripper] alone, but instead shows a submissive appearance.

This made Kidd's guard down a lot in an instant.

He happily responded, "Don't worry. I've always been fast. It's fine right away, but the picture may be a little bloody, and if you don't get used to it, you can wait for me under the street lamp over there. ”

Anna said "um" and agreed.

Then she walked slowly against the wall, trying to bypass the "corpse" on the ground.

Anna's performance made Kidd find it funny.

It's just the corpse of a monster, what's there to be afraid of.

Sure enough, the woman in front of her was just an ordinary noblewoman.

He no longer paid attention to Anna, but put down the toolkit that was behind his shoulder, and looked down to rummage through the toolkit to find tools to collect materials from the monster.

But at this moment, an exclamation sounded behind him: "Sir, watch your back!" ”

When Kidd heard this, his body instinctively chilled, and without even thinking about it, he gave up rummaging and rushed forward.

It's just that when he threw out, he suddenly felt so light and dizzy. The vision was a little blurry.

He instinctively looked behind him, and suddenly saw a body spurting blood in his blurred vision.

Hey?

This lower body is so familiar!

It seems to be his lower body.

Oh, it turned out to be his lower body......

Kidd's upper body lay dead in the street, blood and internal organs spilled in the open space between his two bodies.

The [Ripper], who should have fallen to the ground and was silent, was panting against the wall at this time, leaning against the wall and gasping continuously.

It was covered in blood, and its feet shook from time to time as it stood.

The entire arm of the right hand was bloody and fleshy, and the only left hand that could move was still dripping with blood on the tip of the claw.

It used this left claw to tear the hunter in front of it in two.

Originally, it was aimed at Anna, but I didn't expect Anna to be fooled at all.

It didn't mean to approach it at all, but the hunter came out of nowhere and tried to dismember it.

It can only kill the hunter to vent its anger.

However, after being injured by Anna, it has long since lost hope of killing Anna.

It's just that it's done and it still wants to fight again.

What if it happens?
