My NTR Harem

Chapter 197: Crack



Lucian was talking freely towards the ground, his wings retracted. The large skeleton bird shot towards him after throwing several puddles containing thousands of tiny black insects.

"Hoo, this is going to be tough." Lucian took a deep breath, then he locked his gaze on the approaching groups of insects. He might be in danger if even a single one of them hit him.

Instantly, he created a thin sheet of Velm and increased its size to be big enough that all the puddles of insects would fall over it.

BANG BANG BANG

One after another, they hit the surface of the sheet, almost breaking through it, but Velm held on, and finally, when the last black liquid like group of insects hit the surface.

Lucian just threw away the entire sheet and successfully managed to avoid the first attack.

But the large bird had gotten very close to him as it readied itself to swallow him alive.

In the next instant, Lucian pulled some kind of invisible string which brought the sheet over the head of the bird, covering it completely.

Lucian's goal wasn't to obscure its vision since the skeleton bird didn't even have eyes, but all the insects acted together.

Spreading both wings, Lucian used the speed at which the bird was falling and pushed it down with all his strength, but with only one arm, he couldn't use his strength properly, and his leg hit the head of the skeleton.

Colliding at such a speed, Lucian felt as if his leg had broken, but gritting his teeth, he held in the pain and hastily shot several knives towards the same wing that he had hit before.

BANG BANG BANG CRACK.

Finally, the attack hit its mark. The wing's joint broke, and in the next moment, the large bird lost its balance and began to fall down while trying to hit Lucian.

Panting heavily, after a few seconds, Lucian managed to balance himself in the air. He could feel his heart pumping like crazy, the adrenaline rush was making his body hot.

Then he looked towards his leg and just as he expected, it was broken.

His leg was bending at an unnatural angle, but more than that, quite a lot of insects had started to chew on the surface of Velm.

They stuck to his body after he touched the bird.

"Huff, Huff. So damn persistent, if I didn't have Velm here, then haa haa I would be dead meat." Lucian simply removed the part of Velm to which the insects were sticking and noticed that his leg had already started to heal.

[Yes, these kinds of insects shouldn't exist, that's why the number of volcano boars was so high here before to keep the number of insects very low.]

The cracking sound of the bones rang out and soon his leg had almost healed, but the amount of pain he had to endure almost made him unconscious.

BOOM

The large bird finally crashed into the land and broke several trees while doing so. A few cracks appeared over the bones, but it was still fine, and none of the insects were harmed even after that.

"That damn creature, I need to haa haa find the queen beetle as fast as I can. Ughhh, I'm hungry." After looking at the large bird, which was already trying to fly up, he decided to continue his journey.

Unknown to him, Lucian would have to travel for an entire week just to arrive there. By that time, his food would be gone and the amount of water he found would be very low.

Back to the present, Lucian flew for a few hours and after making sure that the insect was no longer chasing after him, he decided to stop and eat something.

Almost a day had passed, after suffering so much, the hunger struck him like a wild bull, but he could only eat the food that he had brought.

There were no fruits here; all trees and plants were made of that strange metal, and eating the meat of the wild boar was really not an option as he had seen how people had become crazy after eating the meat of awakened creatures.

Finding a relatively silent and spacious part of the forest, he landed and took out the food from Zero's storage. This might have been the best meal of his life.

After eating, although he was not full, but to save food for later, Lucian decided to stop for now. He would probably be able to eat three or four more times like this.

"I hadn't planned to stay here for this long, but even if I found the Queen beetle, now am I supposed to kill her if these creatures don't really have many weaknesses?" Lucian mumbled to himself. After eating, he once again began to fly.

Velm would also need to eat soon or it would also run out of energy, and without it, Lucian would die easily.

******

Lucian flew for more than twelve hours continuously, trying to ignore the rumbling of his belly and the ache all over his body.

Finally, he saw a volcano boar which looked even weaker than the first one he had killed.

It seemed to have gone through quite a lot, and there were several black spots all over its body, which were the tiny beetles trying to eat away its skin and reach the flesh.

The boar didn't even have the strength to use fire anymore.

"This is perfect, now it's meal time, Velm." Saying that, Lucian lowered his body and got closer to the weakened boar, and in the next instant, several tentacles shot towards the beast.

They hit the eyes of the volcano boar, and within seconds, only the skin and bones were left. Then Lucian was gone.

"I need to find water, my throat feels like burning. Zero, try to find a water source." He spoke while staring at his left shoulder.

All the pain and hunger had even slowed his thinking. After thinking for a few seconds while flying, he decided to try something.

He urged Velm to turn into his temporary hand, and soon a red colored arm appeared attached to his shoulder, looking almost perfect.

"Hmmm, It doesn't feel like my original arm, but it will do for now." While flying, he saw all kinds of skeleton creatures. It was a good thing that they were not able to fly.

Despite the overwhelming hunger, Lucian decided to eat after some time, and after more than an hour, he finally heard, or rather read, about the thing he so desperately wanted.

[ I found a water source. Keep flying for half an hour and then fly towards your left. Then I'll help you reach the water source. ]

"Sigh, I had already started to imagine how these insects would use my skeleton. Anyway, let's go." Lucian spoke in a low but excited voice.

Without wasting any more time, he flew faster than ever and headed straight, flapping his wings continuously.

...

After flying for less than half an hour, he turned towards his left when Zero informed him and soon he found a cave that was barely noticeable.
