Chapter Five: MEET THE GODDESS

Gusion's POV

It's already afternoon when I reached the forest. I just walked casually, roaming my eyes everywhere. I can't see anything wrong. Seems like they aren't here.

While waiting, I sat at the huge rock and face the sunset as it spreads variety of colors.

Not afraid if someone would see me. That's much better actually. I don't need to find them anymore.

Moments later, I heard a light and slow footsteps. I gradually stood up and hid at the back of the tall grasses.

Woman. I saw the back of a woman walking away with red braided hair and black hat. She maybe the mysterious sniper they were saying.

Based on the way she walked-- shoulder's down, walking in heavy, slow pace, and rifle on the ground which she just pulling in the tip with one hand, she looked dead tired.

Now is my chance. I held one of my holy blade, and walked like a panther towards the woman's direction.

I saw him abruptly sat in a bush, heaved a sigh and put the rifle in her lap.

So she's not aware with my presence. I smirked. I walked closer. I can now clearly see her. She gradually remove her hat. Followed by the thing in the tip of her long hair. A black ribbon that clasps the braid perhaps, letting her hair down.

I stopped in my midtrack, not aware that I stopped breathing as well. Through the help of a sunlight left, I can clearly see that the woman is beautiful. A goddess! A goddess with a long red hair.. And with a long rifle. I chuckled with my last thought. I never imagine that it could be possible. A rifle is not feminine yet it just added beauty to this woman, making her more attractive.

This Goddess is the sniper? If she is. I could be a willing target.
