Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 9: Cyclops

{Day 2}

All four of them started to cope up with their situation and they started to adjust themselves to that damned place. Even though they have been for only one day, they got a grasp of the situation and were cautious with their environment.

Nix and everyone started to get ready feeling reluctant to do the same thing. They went hunting monsters and they were still feeling frustrated and in anger at all the incidents that have happened from the start after getting teleported.

"Alright Let's move."

Everybody got out with their same formation in which they traveled since the start. They crossed the pond and they went back doing the same thing they did on day one.

They were relaxed feeling safe in the safe house but they all had their doubts because being in a place without any problems and the immense situations that happened from their arrival made them doubt the peaceful time they are having. If it was the same place where people died then they would be in a troubling situation again for sure.

'Should we leave the safe house? I feel a bit lazy to move so let's wait and watch. If anyone suggests or feels uneasy I can start talking about exploring maybe we can find some more people If we try to explore this forest.'

Nix thought to himself.

The day moved smoothly after hunting. Although they should face a life or death situation every time they hunt. They somehow managed to pull it off. As time passed, they went back to the safe house.

'I feel somehow strange today. It's a bit odd too.'

Nix thought to himself.

There weren't any major monsters or beasts that were too hard to take care of. They honestly didn't have a bad time fighting those damned monsters.

'I thought at least someone would suggest changing location but no one did. It Looks like I should start speaking huh?'

Just before Nix could open his mouth Shreya started speaking.

"Hey, Nix what's on your mind? You seem to be thinking about something from the start since we arrived."

"Yes, I was thinking that it was strange that today was a bit easier and relaxing but I don't feel like that this place is not an environment, where we should feel relaxed and I wanted to change the location of the place but I felt a bit hesitant to speak as yesterday's incident was mentally pressing and I messed up yesterday by attacking them so, I thought ....."

"Nix if you didn't attack them yesterday I don't know what could have happened. They couldn't be trusted nor should we have forgiven them so, please be free to speak."

Shreya said with a smile and added.

"And I want all of us to survive this and you have been working hard as the teammates we will take your opinion. And I hope we will be teammates even after we leave this place."

Nix smiled at her.

"Thank you."

Nagendra started talking.

"We can just rest here, Nix. We Just need to stay one night here and we will probably get teleported by tomorrow at the end of the day. And yes I was feeling the same as you but, if it is just one night I think we can manage it somehow."

"Hmm, I feel like we should change places now. Even If it's a night. I have this strange intuition that is telling me to change the location."

"Well as you insist let's ask Shreya and Sonali for an opinion."

"okay"

Nix and others turned towards Sonali to get her opinion and she was silent after the incident that happened yesterday.

"Hmm, I don't know..."

"Nix as I said before, I think it would be dangerous if we travel now so I vote to stay here, and what about you Shreya?"

She looked at Nix for a second who was eagerly waiting for her answer. If she votes for Nix's opinion they would have to start moving. She averted her eyes from Nix with a sigh and started speaking.

"Hah, Nix I understand what you are saying. But, I feel like it would be dangerous to travel now so I want to stay."

With the majority's opinion, they decided to stay there.

'Hah, This is why I don't rise my opinions.'

Nagendra spoke.

"Alright, it is decided then. Now Sherya and I will guard for a while so we can change shifts after this."

Followed by the scene, Nix and Sonali rested for a while and changed shifts after Nagendra and Shreya's shift got over. Sonali sat a little distance away from him gazing towards the dark forest with folded arms. It made her look like she was in some serious thought and she looked beautiful under the moonlight. Nix couldn't help but admire her beauty.

'Not gonna lie. She is kinda enchanting...'

With the thought on his mind, he kept staring at her like a hungry beast, and seems like she found that he was gazing at her. she turned her gaze towards him and smiled at him.

She parted her beautiful lips and started speaking.

"Nix, why are you looking at me like that?"

Nix was dazed and started speaking.

"huh? I am sorry I was thinking about why you were a lot quiet today. Is it because of me Mam?"

"fufu First stop with the mam. You can call me either Sonali or big sis. Okay? And it wasn't because of you."

"Then why did you remain quiet today? And you weren't indulging in conversation either."

"hmm, I was in fear thinking about how cruel and evil humans are and I feel scared to go to that world."

"It won't be a problem if you are with good colleagues as long as you are with them you won't have to be scared."

"fufu You are speaking like a mature person even though you are young and I have to say this, please don't get blinded by rage control your temper. Back then I was scared and It would have been bad. If they were stronger than you." And then she added.

"First be sure if you can fight and if you are confident in your strength. I don't feel it is wrong for you to become angry and Enraged for a justifiable reason."

"I will try my best and remember what you said."

She took her hand, and she brushed his hair with a smile.

"fufu your black and white hairstyle looks cute and suits you."

Nix smiled and gazed at her blue eyes.

'D*mn she is beautiful.'

He thought to himself.

"Nix survive out there! and try your best. I hope we all will be on the same team just like we are here. After we get teleported."

"I wish the same."

Suddenly a message popped up.

{Alert: The boss monster of Kalinga has appeared.}

Nix became agitated upon seeing the message. Did the message only alarm him? Because others didn't seem to be in a panic.

'What?'

"shik..... shik..."

Just as they were speaking. A leaves rustling sound came from a distance.

"thak.. thak.."

And then a giant monster came walking by stomping the muddy ground from a distance. Nagendra and Shreya went out in a hurry as they heard the noise of the thunderous stomps. The Giant monster walked towards them. The Team was shivering at the sight of the humongous monster while gripping their weapons in an instinct of freight.

As the giant monster closed the distance everybody caught the appearance of the monster. It looked grotesque with torn clothes wrapped around its lower body, and it had a big belly and it possessed an exceptional big eye in the middle of its face. It was five meters tall with a muscular body carrying a long baseball bat-shaped weapon with It. The Identity of the monster was a cyclops.

At that moment,

Suddenly another Cyclops appeared from a distance.

'Ah, This damned world! Just as I thought! Fuck! We could have left this damned place for good!'

Nix cursed inwardly and gripped his sword by collecting his courage.

'Looks like I should either Attack or get stomped like a chunk of meat and become its food.'

The first cyclops which appeared ran towards them suddenly and swung its stone weapon and made the house collapse with its enormous amount of force. Fortunately, Nix and others avoided the blow by running from that place.

'Dammit! Can I kill it? No, can I survive this?'

As Nix saw its Devastating power, many thoughts started to run on his mind.

'Even if I run I will get killed. My only choice now is to kill it rather than getting killed by it.'

His hands were visibly trembling while holding a sword in his hand. He quit running and shifted his path towards the cyclops while tightly gripping his sword. Others who ran stopped as they saw Nix who was now preparing his posture to fight back.

'Now come at me.'

He looked at the Cyclops with a strong resolve to fight back.
