Monster Girl Ranching in Another World-Chapter 296 Only After Me, Lord Carnage

I braced myself and prepared to dive if I was wrong, but Karl stepped sideways to dodge me at the last second. The movement forced the white-haired centaur to cross his legs; I had been waiting for this.

I shoved into the horse's shoulder, causing its feet to become entangled, toppling the large horse. Karl cried as he crashed into the ground, sliding across the grass; I was sure it was going to make a mess of his hair.

This was the most excellent way that I could deal with this one without seriously hurting him. I wasn't sure if I should kill him or not since Karl was one of Sagittarius's children.

[Saggittarius will not mind if you do. He is more than likely to thank you for getting rid of the problems. He is just too lazy to deal with them himself or send people to go and deal with them.] Libra explained to me as I walked over and placed my foot on the human-like but twisted neck.

"So, we are going to do this one of two ways. You listen to me, or I kill you because you have already been hurting enough people," I growled, and Karl looked to complain.

"So, is this what you meant when you said you would get me some meat? I think I could get used to this! I ain't never had me some centaur before, and goblins are mostly skin bones and guts anyways!" Howl growled as he put his two front paws on Karls horse body opposite to the legs.

Karl froze at this gesture, and I could see that I had finally gotten his attention, and he was starting to understand his position in all of it.

"What do you want from me?! Don't you know who my father is?!" Karl complained, but Libra unfused from my body as he did.

The moment Karl saw Libra, he stopped all of his struggles.

"I suggest you listen to Zack. He is the one that controlled us all before you were born, so it is forgivable that you didn't recognize him. Now I am telling you that he is our master, so there is no excuse," Libra said, but then fused back into my body just as fast as she had come.

We were all silent for a moment, and I finally decided to take my foot off of his neck, and I signaled for Howl to back up. I wasn't sure how this would work when I dealt with Saggitarius, but it might just be best to avoid him for now.

[Don't worry about that. Sagittarius will be going out of his way to make sure that he doesn't have to deal with you.] Libra explained.

"Fine, Fine, Fine! I will listen to you, but if Carnage catches me helping you, then we will all suffer!" Karl complained as he got back up, but I heard the voices starting to get closer again.

Karl seemed to notice this too, and now he was between us, the Carnage, who was getting closer. The goldins were helping their friends and family get up, and now they were all scurrying away.

That was all but the six I had saved, and I looked back over at them as the overlapping voices were getting closer. They looked scared, but they had no reason to be at the current moment; I was the one he was after. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

"Go; take everyone and get as far from here as you can. Carnage is only after me, and now you have your village back," I told the goblins, but before any of them could reply, I whirled around at the sound of Howl's growl.

"Running for us is pointless."

"These creatures are only food."

"Your actions are meaningless!"

"We are inevitable!"

Karl had backed up, turned, and fled towards the sound of the overlapping voices, and I cursed under my breath. I guess that Karl didn't hear the word that was just spoken by the creature, or he would have never run towards him.

I turned back to Howl and the goblins, but only the sizable blue wolf remained by my side. Then I heard Karl's voice as I assumed he got closer to Carnage.

"Lord Carnage! The invader! He is over… Wait! I am helping… Aaahhh!"

The centaur's scream cut through the air, and I looked at Howl, giving him a nod, and both of us took off running.

While I could stay ahead of Carnage quickly enough, he would find me sooner or later. I was going to have to find something to deal with him.

Right away, the two of us came upon Karl's house that was nothing more than a stable. I had been tempted to go and check it out to see if there was something that I could use as a weapon, but a quick glance told me it was pointless.

I waved for us to keep going, and the two of us kept heading northwest. I didn't have a map or a compass, but I decided that the next ring would be to my north to make things easier.

We both heard Karl's screams for a long while after we started to run, but after almost twenty minutes, it stopped. Whatever the SkinWalker did to take the thoughts from the creatures was not something that I wanted to experience.

"So, what is the plan now? I am starting to get pretty hungry, and you promised me food, so what is that about?" Howl asked, and I just shrugged as we ran.

"If you want, you can go back and get what is left from Karl, but as of now, I just want to get out of here. The further distance we can put between the Lord Carnage and us, the better. I need some time to make a plan or to find a weapon. I don't suppose that you know where I can find something that might help us deal with that psychopath?" I asked as we continued to run.
