Combat Maid Harem
Chapter 10 - The Fish Turned Out To Be A Shark

"Hmph!"

Aleshia snorted and ignored them. She stood there silently while waiting for them to continue their attack. They were now down to four people. They still had the confidence to win but they saw no opening as she stood there.

Instead of standing separate from each other like before. They all grouped together.

"Attack!"

Julian shouted and all of his squadmates followed him to attack. They didn't focus on her feet anymore. The feeling she gave off doesn't sit well with them. They could only attack her. If she dies, they would have to make do with a cold corpse. Was what was on their heads.

Aleshia saw them attacking her together and her face turned more serious. She picked up the sword beside the man she knocked out and took a stance with it. She waited for them to arrive before parrying one sword swing.

She swung back with one of her own and managed to slash the man's wrist. He pulled back his hand in panic and fell down to the floor. He looked at his bleeding wrist in fear.

"My wrist!"

The man held his open wound with his other hand to try and stop the bleeding. Julian and the others stopped in their tracks. They were shocked.

She could actually wield a sword! And it was with great familiarity that even surpasses them who have undergone professional training from the kingdom.

"We have to kill her!"

Julian had no more chances left. If they lost more men on their side then they would most likely get killed by her. She was very strong. He knew how to respect the strong and going in for the kill would be the utmost respect that you could give.

No hesitation had to be made. If one of them hesitated just to have a chance with tasting her body then it would be the end of them.

"Too late!"

Instead of waiting for them to attack this time, Aleshia sprinted towards a man. He was the one farthest away from the others right now. He was beside the man whose wrist just got slit.

Julian and the other guy ran towards the man when they saw Aleshia running at full speed. Their hearts were beating wildly. If they couldn't fight her with him then she could easily take him down.

Aleshia arrived in front of the man first. Her face was cold as ice. She had done this so many times that it was very familiar to her. While still holding the sword she picked up on the ground, Aleshia thrust it towards the man's heart.

The man tried to parry her sword attack but his reaction was too slow. As someone who never had much war experience. Combat was one of his weaknesses. His heart was penetrated and his eyes were opened wide in shock. He only wanted to have fun, but it all turned into a disaster.

"Eric!"

Julian and the guy beside him shouted in panic. They swung their swords together at Aleshia. This time they were giving it their 120%. The rush of the adrenaline in their bodies made their movements much faster.

Aleshia frowned when she saw the two blades slicing across the air towards her. She just made a burst attack and couldn't react fast enough. She abandoned the sword and jumped into the air.

Aleshia twisted her body to avoid their blades. Julian and the other guy looked at her in the air as they continued swinging their swords. One word could only describe their face. It was amazement.

Aleshia landed on the floor behind them with her feet. The duo turned around and held their stance together. Fear was mounting up in their minds. She was so strong that whatever they do to her, she either evades it, blocks it, or counterattacks it.

"We can talk about this. Who are you?"

Julian's face was grim as he looked at her. They were the only ones left. They had to stay together, otherwise, it would just be a repeat of what happened to their other squadmates.

"None of your business!"

Aleshia replied coldly. She was in her assassin mode. The only thing on her mind right now was to kill and to kill. If she couldn't kill then she would incapacitate them and kill them later.

"You're not just a normal civilian from the slums. What are your intentions?"

Julian asked her. He was sure that she was an expert hiding with malicious intentions. She could even be a spy from another kingdom. If he could get intelligence that she was a spy then he would be able to return to his post!

"Why do I have to answer your questions?"

Aleshia looked at both of them coldly. Her patience was running out. She wants to take Ella home right now. She glanced at Ella who was still closing her eyes. There was a worried look on her face as she was worried for her Big Sister.

"Now!"

Julian and the other guy saw this as a chance. They both ran forward and attacked her. Aleshia turned around and a sly grin was on her face.

"F!ck!"

Julian cursed in his mind. They were baited! He quickly stopped and ran backward. The other guy didn't notice him stopping at all and continued attacking Aleshia alone.

Needless to say, Aleshia dodged his sword and appeared in front of him within arms reach. The guy was mesmerized by her beautiful cool eyes before blood spurted from his mouth. Aleshia had her dagger deep into his chest right into his heart.

Blood traveled to her hands and the man slowly slid down to the floor. His eyes slowly lost their focus as he died. Julian didn't dilly-dally anymore and ran towards Ella.

The man who got his wrist slit earlier also stood up. He walked towards a sword on the ground and picked it up with his good hand.

"Don't move!'

Julian shouted at her frantically. He held his sword right on Ella's neck. Ella visually struggled but stopped when she felt the cold blade of the sword pressing on her neck.
