Chapter 1446: Reaching the First Camp
With Mathilde guiding them, the trip to the top had become much easier. She knew the branches like the back of her hand and guided them through them safely. A huge part of that immediate safety was thanks to Arad killing everything remotely close, and now, all monsters of the tree avoided him like the plague.
Of course, many of the monsters were extremely sensitive and could see from hundreds of kilometers away, which allowed them to observe Arad’s blood rampage from a safe distance. That only made them even more terrified of him, and even more so after they saw him fighting Mathilde.
Monsters might not be as intelligent as humanoids, but they are mostly as smart as dogs and parrots, possessing enough intelligence to recognize danger when seeing it.
Even the beasts on the verge of breaking through their mortal shackles and turning into divine beasts or spirits wouldn’t dare show their faces in front of someone who boxed an archon. And considering that Mathilde usually fought Sylph and won many times, even lesser gods won’t dare poke their necks anywhere near Arad now.
Arad flew above the branches, carrying everyone on his back. At first, some thought that the blood bath he caused was excessive, but that was the point of it. Making a statement. If a monster like those two bald eagles had attacked while Cerilla or anyone else were out, the result might be a disaster. Now, everyone can be assured that no one would dare get close to them.
Dalla looked around. Using a magic telescope, she could spot monsters flying away behind the horizon, running away as Arad approached. "I doubt even high magic can harm them. All of them." She gasped.
D nodded, "And they are just running away like sheep seeing a massive dire demon wolf the size of a small mountain."
Dalla looked back at Mathilde, "I bet they are scared of you."
Mathilde shook her head, "They usually ignore me. They don’t attack me and I don’t attack them. If they saw me moving with anything, then they wouldn’t interfere. They never care to run away, because they understand I won’t harm them." She lifted her hand and pointed at Arad beneath them.
"They are scared of him. And they better be."
