Raphina being the waitress and the one who actually wanted to eat something, quickly took charge of the dinner menu.
Though Xavier had been circling her all day, groping her and teasing her, when it came to doing actual work, he let her do everything and gave her some space.
The man lazily sprawled on the ground next to his brother without a care in the world, making Charlotte roll her eyes at his nonchalance.
The elder one was just as worse as the younger one. Both the elven brothers were equally selfish, entitled, and inconsiderate.
She scoffed at them and looked down on them, but Charlotte completely failed to notice something obvious.
She as well didn’t help the poor bunny girl and simply waited for the food to become ready just like the other two elves.
Raphina, however, was plenty bubbly and cheerful even doing everything on her own.
She took out venison meat from her storage ring and cooked it until the meat was fully roasted and aromatic.
She then handed over a few skewers to the three elves, who immediately dug into the food silently, two of them engrossed in their thoughts, and one just silent because his mouth was stuffed.
The dinner didn’t take too long and everything was wrapped up within minutes.
Though Raphina had made an effort to create a campsite, the three were done in a jiffy and stood up immediately afterward.
“Oh my gosh! You guys are all in such a hurry!!” The bunny girl giggled and trailed behind them reluctantly.
Not long after, she jumped up and down again, grabbing everyone’s attention. “Ummm… There are usually some nether flowers in this area which grows because of the mountain spring water.”
“You can sell these at the city for a decent buck.” Raphina tried persuading the group by talking about the different uses of nether flowers.
However, Xander and Charlotte remained disinterested and continued walking forward.
Only Xavier tried cheering her up, making up for the rude behavior of the other two.
“Let me ditch these two at the city and we can then go where ever you want.” Xavier coaxed her, making the young bunny girl giggle. “It’s alright, my handsome darling.”
Raphina didn’t seem to care too much and the group once again started moving, but barely a few minutes passed when…
“Boo. Wait a minute, please. I can feel the presence of a treasure around here.” Raphina clapped her hands excitedly and jumped up and down, proudly showcasing her assets.
Both Xander and Charlotte immediately stopped in their tracks and Xavier did too.
There we go! Now you all are listening to me! The bunny sighed in relief and triumphantly turned around to speak something, when suddenly…
SLASH
Three sword beams shot towards her simultaneously, all aimed at her right hand, her equipment wielding hand.
Before she could realize what had just happened, another three beams shot towards her left hand and cut off that one as well.
Blood spurted from both the cuts and her limbs unceremoniously fell on the ground like dried up dead twigs from branches.
Raphina was completely dumbfounded and she didn’t react in time at all and when she looked up in disbelief to see who had attacked her, she was left even more petrified.
If she had to guess who then she would have guessed the cold female elf or the arrogant male elf, but the one wielding his sword right now, blood dripping still was rather Xavier.
The man who had been casually playing with her and teasing her was the first one to find out her secret?? She just couldn’t believe it.
She had taken him for a womanizing fool and decided to bring these three for her friends.
They seemed to be outsiders, new to town or rather new to this part of the northern territory.
So she had decided to take advantage of that fact and make a few bucks. However, things had completely gone wrong.
Raphina gnashed her teeth in anger and frustration. A pink glow emanated from her body, covering her head to toe.
Even though she was slightly stronger than the three, physical strength was her weakness and these guys had attacked that.
She quickly jumped back, moving a few paces at the top of her speed.
However, a streak of darkness materialized behind her, completely holding her in place and soon enveloping her completely.
“A… a domain?” The bunny woman stammered, her eyes wide open like saucers and staring at Xander.
“Wind Blast!” She yelled, creating a tornado around her, with her in the center, blasting away all the darkness that touched her.
But just as the wisps of darkness cleared, three huge sword beams with an aura of fire and lightning struck, cleanly severing her head from her body.
Flop. The two halves of Raphina fell down, her body limp and lifeless. Just like that, in a mere few seconds, she no longer existed.
Charlotte wiped the blood from her blade and sheathed it back as if nothing had happened, while Xavier quickly collected all the belonging from the dead body, burning it to a crisp using his fire magic.
The three elves then quickly hurried away, leaving the scene of the crime as if it had nothing to do with them.
After a while, when they had successfully managed to put sufficient distance between them and the area where the fight had happened, Xavier finally opened his mouth and broke the silence.
“Why are you guys holding it back? Just come out and scold me already?” He twisted his lips, unable to take it any longer.
He had obviously fallen for such an easy trap and he was sure that these two wouldn’t let it go so easily.
Xander didn’t say anything, his face as cold and indifferent as ever, while Charlotte sneered in contempt. “It is not your fault. It is your brother’s fault for bringing you here.” She then silently continued moving as well.
Xavier felt a shiver run down his spine. He was already missing his companion even though she was a honey trap.
“Tch. Tch. What a pity.” He clicked his tongue.
