Chapter 786 Found By The Heroes

-----

"Luck! You need to live!"

Those words constantly resonated within Luck\'s mind as he fell unconscious. The River Spirits did everything they could to bring him to safety, as he was carried down the river stream, far away from where he was before.

"L-Lara…"

The memories of what happened there constantly tormented his mind, like nightmares. He saw Lara being grabbed by that terrifying demon and dragged away from him.

"N-No…"

He saw Lara\'s face, filled with horror and fear, as he continued crawling towards her, yet his body felt so heavy, he couldn\'t move… Countless insects began emerging from the ground, biting his legs and arms.

"S-Stop… Lara… Lara, don\'t go!"

He saw her being consumed by insects, her entire body being torn to pieces bite through bite, as that Demon smiled back at him, her mandibles grossly opening wide, devouring Lara\'s entire face…

"Fufufu~ You\'re too weak…"

"LARAAAAAAAA!!!"

Screaming his lungs out, Luck finally woke up, finding himself inside a tent, gasping for air. His entire body was patched up, and he was sweating a lot. He felt agitated, constantly gasping for air, as if he had ran a marathon.

It was all a nightmare, yet part of such a nightmare had really happened. Just merely remembering that made him immediately begin to cry, without even questioning anything around him yet.

"L-Lara… Lara… I was too weak… I was… so pathetic… No… Nooo…"

He continued crying, his tears covering the clothes covering his legs.

"Crying now, huh?"

Suddenly, the voice of the Golden Tiger echoed behind Luck.

"You know that you should first go thank the people that saved your life, right? That brat threw you down a river. I know it was for your survival, but if you weren\'t rescued, you would had drowned…"

"Ah!" Luck snapped back to reality, as he finally realized his surroundings, and the smell of food being cooked outside.

Suddenly, two people walked towards his tent, slightly opening it and greeting him.

It was two girls, one with long, red hair, beautiful emerald eyes, and long elven ears. Although she looked much like Lara in terms of beauty and innocence, this girl held a powerful aura, like nothing he had ever sensed before.

And at her side, a brown-skinned girl walked in, blue eyes and long, silvery-white hair. She was just as gorgeous as the girl at her side… Yet Luck couldn\'t react to their beauty alone, as this girl also held an incredible aura.

"Are you alright? You\'re finally awake, huh?" Sighed the red-haired girl. "Name\'s Sylph by the way. You\'re Luck, right?"

"My name Aquarina!" The silver-haired girl said. "It is nice to meet you as well. But why did you just scream so loudly? Had a nightmare?"

"Sylph… Aquarina?" Luck asked. "I-I\'ve never seen you in my entire life, how come you know my name?!"

"Well, we are… heroes like you." Sylph said. "Ugh, well, more like just those blessed by the gods. I honestly dislike the term "heroes"…"

"Thanks to Sylphy\'s eyes, we were able to find you." Said Aquarina with a smile. "It\'s a bit awkward… But I\'m relieved you\'re healthy and safe.

"A-Ah… Y-You\'re… the people that Lara has been searching for this entire time!" Luck was shocked. "I-I can\'t believe it… Ah! W-We need to go look for Lara! We can\'t waste any more time! If we can\'t get to her she\'ll… she\'ll die!"

"She\'s still alive, and fine. She\'s currently in a unconscious state." Sylph sighed. "Calm down and relax first, Luck. You\'re agitated. You almost died."

"B-But we need to… Agh! Get away from me!" Luck screamed, quickly attempting to push his way out of the tent.

However, as he tried to force Sylphy to move by trying to push her with his arms, he… simply couldn\'t.

"E-Eh?" Luck realized no matter how much he tried to push her, the girl was like a mountain! His hands tightly grasped her shoulders yet… it was impossible.

"I told you to calm down." Sylphy sighed. "Also stop touching me, pervert."

SLAP!

Aquarina gave Luck a slap in the face before Sylphy said another word, the boy fell into the floor, shocked. That slap hurt more than any punch he had ever received in the face.

"Hey! Don\'t touch my girlfriend without her permission!" Aquarina angrily said, crossing her arms. "We saved your life, be more polite, okay?"

"E-Ehhh?" Luck felt shocked. "I-I\'m sorry… I didn\'t meant to creep you out… Ugh."

Before Luck could even speak any more, he fell unconscious due to the slap…

"Aquarina you went a bit too far, didn\'t you?!" Sylphy sighed, facepalming. "Gosh, this girl…"

"A-Ahahaha… Maybe I went a bit overboard? But Zack takes any slap or punch so easily…" Aquarina sighed, feeling a bit guilty.

"The boy\'s clearly a lot weaker than Zack." Sylphy said. "He\'s… rather weak, in fact. We\'ll need to help him grow stronger while we go rescue Lara. Well, for now, he better wake up. Alice, can you help?"

"Sure!" Alice appeared at Sylphy\'s side, her Light Spirit, as she imbued Mana into her and both combined their magic together into a powerful healing light covering Luck\'s body.

"[Vitality Restoration]"

FLAAAASH!

The brilliant light restored Luck\'s vitality in a second, and quickly made him feel better and more relieved, as he slowly opened his eyes again.

"Uwaaah!" He cried in fear, running away from the two girls to the other end of the tent… "D-Don\'t hurt me!"

Sylphy sighed, glaring at Aquarina.

"What did I told you? Your first impressions are always quite terrible, Aquarina." Sylphy said with all honesty.

"Ugh… Okay, I\'m sorry for hitting you so hard…" Aquarina sighed, crossing her arms. "We should be friends, actually. So… Um, I started a bit bad there. I promise I won\'t hit you again unless you deserve it." She smiled gently.

Yet the only thing Luck could see in this girl now was a terrifying, merciless monster that knocked him out with a single slap in the face… These two girls were real monsters.

"O-Okay… Lets… get along." He sighed, recalling how Lara often told him to be nicer with people.
