Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 104

"Sigh…..Out of all the monsters, it is this one…."

Standing before the lair, Julia looked at the monster ahead. It was a huge monkey-like monster who was simply lying on the ground with a sleeping posture.

"Can you see it, Miss Julia?"

"Tch….Didn't I tell you to simply call me Julia? Why are you refusing to listen to me."

"B-but…."

"No buts. If you are that uncomfortable, call me captain instead."

"Ah…Okay….Then, captain, can you see it from here?"

"I can't clearly see it, but I can sense it."

"You can sense it?"

"Yes. It is a Yeti."

"A yeti?"

The party members gathered around, peering cautiously at the slumbering beast. The Yeti was massive, covered in shaggy fur, and had long, powerful limbs.

"It's enormous," Sylvie whispered, her eyes wide with awe and a touch of fear. freewebnσvel.cøm

Barry, the always the analytical one, spoke up. "Yetis are known to be strong and extremely territorial. We need to approach this carefully."

"Right," The girl with the spear in her hand agreed, her eyes fixed on the monster. "We should have a plan in place before we attempt to engage it."

For this whole time, this party just brute forced their way to this place, thanks to the unique strength of Julia Middleton. However, considering even she was looking slightly skeptical, it was evident to the party members that it wouldn't work that easily.

"Well, since we have Sylvie, we can start by testing things out," Julia said as she looked at the sleeping monster. Since it was sleeping peacefully, they could also wait for another team.

Sylvie looked nervous but determined. "I'll do my best to support you all."

Hearing this Julia smiled. This girl was quite cute and innocent. Her reactions, the way she looked at everyone with a smile, the way she was scared but still tried to help everyone…..For Julia, that was what strong people did, regardless of their strengths.

'She is a strong girl.'

She nodded inside as she patted Sylvie on her shoulder.

"You can-"

However, just as she was about to continue, a low rumbling sound reverberated through the cave. Julia felt the ground tremble beneath her feet, and her eyes widened in realization.

"Get down!" she yelled, quickly pushing Sylvie and Barry behind a large rock formation nearby. The rest of the party members scrambled for cover, their hearts racing. It was as if an earthquake was about to occur.

CRUMBLE!

The rumbling grew louder, and within moments, a rush of snow and ice cascaded down from above, engulfing the cave entrance in a deafening roar. An avalanche was descending upon them.

As the cascade of snow came to a rest and the noise subsided, they emerged from their hiding spots. The landscape had changed drastically; the cave entrance was now buried under a massive heap of snow and ice.

"We're trapped," At that moment, Mason appeared as he said grimly, surveying the scene.

Julia clenched her fists, her mind racing since the whole plan was shattered now because all of the party members could feel another rumbling voice coming from the place in front.

"ROAAAAR!"

As a hearty roar echoed all around the place, the party understood there was no way to escape anymore.

"ROAAAAR!"

Julia took a deep breath, steadying her nerves as she prepared to lead the battle. The monstrous roar of the Yeti echoed through the cave, shaking the very ground they stood on. With a stern expression, she addressed her party members.

"Listen up, everyone. We don't have a choice but to face the Yeti head-on. Sylvie, I need you to stay close and focus on healing. Don't worry about fighting; we'll protect you."

Sylvie nodded, her face pale but determined. She clutched her staff tightly, ready to support her companions.

Julia continued, "Barry, keep analyzing the Yeti's movements and weaknesses. We need that information to formulate a strategy. Mason, you're on offense. Hit hard and draw its attention. I'll coordinate and provide cover....."

She continued to give orders. Even though she might not look like that, Julia was actually a girl with quite a lot of dungeon experience. From the day she had awakened, she had been going into the dungeons her family operated, and for her, that was how her life worked.

Thus, she was able to pick some habits of the seniors she had worked under.

"Let's move out."

With those words, the briefing was over.

SWOOSH!

As the Yeti stirred and began to rise, Julia charged forward, leading the assault.

The ground beneath them was still unstable from the avalanche, adding to the challenge. Yet, the party moved swiftly, each member fulfilling their designated roles.

'Wow….She can lead like that, huh?'

The playful demeanor of the previous Julia was nowhere to be seen, and at that exact moment, Mason understood.

'Just as they said, this girl is also dangerous. Maybe I can even hit two birds with one stone today.'

With that thought, Mason turned his attention to the slightly trembling girl beside him.

'Let's see how long she can hold on.'

Of course, they had a plan specifically prepared for today. After all, they had already managed to put quite a number of their people inside this place.

SWOOSH!

He lunged at the Yeti with his weapon, attracting its attention.

The beast roared in fury and swung its massive arms, immediately lifting the veil of the snow on the ground.

SWOOSH!

"Careful!" Julia shouted as she saw the girl with a spear almost getting hit by the monster before her.

CLANK!

She blocked the monster's attack with her sword. The force behind the attack sent waves to her body as she convulsed.

"Captain."

SWOOSH!

The spear girl immediately came to her help and covered for her.

And strangely, at that moment, Julia had a weird feeling that this monster before them was something that shouldn't be here.

She was getting the feeling she had never felt in the academy before.

She was slightly familiar with that, but it was something that shouldn't have existed here.

'This is Bloodlust?'
