# Merry Christmas everyone
******
There was a sudden change in the elite demon general’s behaviour as though there was something urgent he needed to do. So, he wanted to kill Ajax as soon as possible.
‘Damn it, I don’t have time to dodge it,’
Ajax was in a position that he didn’t have enough time to dodge it.
‘Swoosh’
Just when he thought he was going to die by the black sword, Ajax saw a green coloured arrow coming from the distance and touched the black sword at an incredible speed.
‘Kacha’
Just as the green coloured arrow touched it, the black sword stopped in the mid-air and what came after that was the crack.
Within a few seconds, the black sword completely disintegrated into powder which made the demon king’s consciousness inside the elite demon general feel a bad premonition.
“Who are you? Why are you meddling in my matters?”
The elite demon general threw Ajax aside and looked in the direction in which the green-coloured arrow had come from and asked.
‘Huh? Who is that?’
Ajax rubbed the back of his head as he also looked in the direction from which the earlier arrow had come and silently thought in his head.
However, Ajax saw no one in that direction that made him raise his brows.
‘Swoosh’
“How are you, little brother?”
Just as he was wondering who saved him from the earlier attack, Ajax heard a familiar yet unrecognizable voice from behind him which gave him goosebumps.
Suppressing his shock, he hurriedly turned back to see a young lady in her twenties, who was covering her face with a veil.
Even though her face was covered by a veil, it was unable to hide her beauty.
“You are…,”
Ajax felt that he had seen her somewhere but he was unable to remember where he had seen her.
“Little brother, you have forgotten me already? It was only around a month or so and you can’t remember me?”
When she saw the confused look on Ajax’s face, she became sad as he mentioned when they had met.
“Month ago?”
Ajax tried to remember it; however, he had gone through many things in the last months and ventured the five elemental world two times and many more. So, he was unable to remember her.
“Huh?”
All of a sudden, the young lady was surprised when she saw a green coloured pendant which was hanging around Ajax’s neck.
“Since you are wearing the pendant I gave you, I will not be angry with you anymore,” While saying that she revealed a smile which was completely covered by the veil.
“Huh?”
All of a sudden, Ajax remembered the young lady in front of him and revealed a smile before saying, “Thanks for saving me, big sister.”
The young lady was none other than Keshe, whom Ajax had met in the auction plaza of the mercenary guild’s market square.
For some reason, Keshe felt Ajax was different. So, she gave him a green coloured pendant and asked him that whenever he came to the middle section, he had to meet her.
However, Ajax was fully busy and didn’t have time to visit her.
Moreover, he had thanked her for saving him from the elite demon general because he knew that she was very powerful.
‘Since she is the daughter of a rank 7 spirit beast king, she must be very powerful, right?’ This was the only thought in his head because when he checked the information on the pendant given by her, it said that it was enchanted by the rank 7 spirit beast king and later given to his offspring.
Moreover, since she was able to transform into a human while staying in the Zrochester province, he knew that she was very powerful.
‘System, show her cultivation strength,’
As Ajax was curious about Keshe’s strength, he asked the system to give the information on Keshe.
‘Ding,
Spirit beast Name:- Keshe (Transformed)
Spirit beast form name:- Forest fairy
Cultivation:- Peak rank 5 (Peak level 10 general realm)
As soon as he asked the system about Keshe, it sent brief information on her which made Ajax shocked.
‘Forest fairy?’
According to what Ajax had known, forest fairies were extinct after being continuously hunted by humans and later captured by them.
A forest fairy was a type of spirit beast that was born from butterfly-type spirit beasts. Although the chances of hatching a forest fairy were less, it was not impossible. For every hundred eggs, there would be one forest fairy that would be hatched because they were enchanted by the forest they were hatched.
That was the reason they were called forest fairies.
‘Her cultivation is only peak rank 5 which is less than the elite demon general. This is bad,’ When Ajax was focused on the cultivation of the forest fairy, he was shocked because she was clearly much weaker than the elite demon general.
“Big sister, did you bring the old man with you?”
Since there was no way he and Kesha could escape from the elite demon general, he asked about an old man who followed her when they met in the auction plaza.
“Haha…little brother. You are worried about me?” When she saw the concerned look on Ajax’s face, Keshe revealed a small smile before saying, “Don’t worry, I can kill him in less than 5 moves.”
She confidently replied to Ajax as she took out a huge green coloured bow which had golden markings on it.
“Clap clap”
“Are you talking about me?”
While they were talking about the elite demon general, he heard the elite demon general clap his hands and asked them while pointing his thumb finger towards him.
Even though his black sword turned into dust by Keshe’s attack, the elite demon general didn’t show any fear when he saw her cultivation level.
Moreover, the consciousness of the demon king inside the elite demon general thought that he could completely burn the soul and blood essence of the main demon general to increase his strength for some more time.
“Of course, I am talking about you,”
Keshe moved from Ajax’s back and stood in front of him before nodding her head in reply to the elite demon general’s question.
As for Ajax, he was still in shock with the green-coloured bow in Keshe’s hand.
“What a joke. Little girl, you need to wake from your dreams before you even attack me…Hehe,” the demon king’s consciousness mocked Keshe and asked her to stop dreaming.
“Ajax, move to aside. I think I am wrong about killing him in 5 moves,” All of a sudden, Keshe became serious and asked Ajax to move aside.
“Big sister, don’t force yourself to kill him in less number of moves. As long as you injure him even a little, I will take of him,” While saying that Ajax looked at his summons who were in a disadvantageous position and said to Keshe, “I will go and help my summons.”
After finishing his words, Ajax stretched his body before he could help his summons.
“Who said I need to force myself to kill this demon general. I can kill him in a single move without any difficulty,” Keshe calmly replied to Ajax.
“What?” Ajax was shocked by her words and seriously looked at her.
