Subconsciously everyone treated and pampered her like their own daughter.
While eating big slice fell on her cloths, staining them. Little girl looked at it and looked up after "Mama."
"Finish it first, then we will go to clean it."
"That big lake would be that way." Ruby pointed behind Julie.
After ten minutes both Julie and Jiya have finished their fill. She removed her daughter's cloths after cleaning themselves after food, they are only carrying little amount of water to use less in things like clean hand and mouth. And some drinkable water in another section.
Little girl was stripped butt naked and taken on her arm inside her jacket. Stained cloths on other she moved toward the direction of Lake. This lake they have previously scouted, and taken into consideration to use when necessary for using water source.
And also from that drinkable water can filtered, both Jasmine and Ruoxi are expert on that.
It took them few minutes to reach the open space from tree shades, light illuminated the lake's blue colour beautifully.
Getting near the edge she put down her little girl and dipped the small cloths into the water to clean and rub.
Squat...squat...squat.
Butt naked little girl looked around as her mother washed her clothes. Just as she finished cleaning the cloths completely, lake surface stirred.
Splash!!!
Something jumped up from within and landed some distance from them loudly.
Thud!!!
Julie grabbed her daughter again, pulled up in her jacket and dropping the washed clothes on grass, held the long knife pointing toward the giant alligator at front staring at them. Little girl also didn't utter any sound and stayed quite in her mother's cloth.
Alligator noticed them but moved its head toward lace along with whole body. Everything happened only in few seconds and another shadow splashed from the lake, collided with the alligator.
A fully bare without any clothed man wrestled with alligator by gripping both sides of mouth and pulled at opposite both sides simultaneously. Then alligator spun with the man, trying get rid of him but man's grip is like iron chains, didn't budge a little and kept pulling both huge jaws even while spinning.
Alligator spun continously and crossed 20 meter when its jaw completely bended at both sides in a perfect line. The creature stopped moving immediately, man atop it finished it when four constant blows at same place on head.
Man stood and looked toward the woman that was standing about 25 meters from him. Man didn't have a scratch. He focused on her closely, a small head peaked out from cloths of her.
Julie saw the man looking at her for few seconds and walking toward her. She gripped her long knife tightly but found her hand shaking and not able to master any strength. Legs are also not moving, they are also shaking slightly. Her only grace is, she has a knife in hand.
Man stopped in front of her, his shadow covered her fully. She wasn't even able master enough courage to move her neck upward. Suddenly Jiya poked her head out completely and greeted him "Hello, big strong uncle."
She was terrified immediately and saw him moving his hand toward her daughter's head. But she was standing paralysed.
At that moment Ruoxi, Jasmine and others came out from the shade of the threes. From their angle they saw Julie's back toward them and a man standing in front her, his hand on her bosom. She was shaking continuously, alligator was hidden behind the man's board frame.
Killing intent flashed from all woman, Ruoxi and Jasmine dashed toward him with their katana ready.
Julie saw him patting her daughter's head while giving a smile, crouching slightly and suddenly looked behind her. She didn't have time to turn around as man moved.
Every woman from behind saw man moving at incredible speed grabbing Ruoxi first and taking away Jasmine's katana somehow and slashing her with her own weapon. Jasmine's every clothes fell apart as she just stood there like statue, Ruoxi's katana was broken in half with his bare hand grabbing and he has his other hand over her face that just broke her mask.
Even though everyone have seen her face clearly, she still likes to wear the mask most times.
After face revealed from mask man looked at her for few seconds, everyone held their and saw him smiling. Patting Ruoxi's head with one hand and her cheeks from other while flashing a smile at her.
Everyone gulped as man stood and looked at everyone for once before waving toward Julie to bye bye.
A small hand also responded "Bye bye big strong uncle."
When Jasmine's clothes fell, everyone in back subconsciously looked at the man's below for once but didn't find any reaction, not even now as he looked at everyone carefully before walking to the other direction after waving at the little girl.
Whole group stood rooted until he walked in front of alligator and started tying its tail with a rope like plant, which was just at side.
Only then all 7 of woman from back walked ahead to Julie and other still dazed two woman, one standing other lying on ground.
Everyone learned what exactly happened from Julie, she has stopped shaking seeing him not harming anyone. What happened to Ruoxi and Jasmine was out of reflex, that much everyone understood from this two years of experience. Only Jasmine and Ruoxi were still in daze because it was first for them to be dominated in second just now in their current world.
That man is almost like built completely different than them.
Jasmine and Ruoxi finally woke up from their stupor seeing the man leaving while dragging the alligator with end of plant on his hand.
Ruoxi stood up and looked at Jasmine. Both in tactical understanding, tailed the man despite no clothes on either of their. Only Ruoxi has half her katana left and Jasmine's katana is without damage.
Others watching two also joined them.
Man didn't move fast, just in regular pace. Others followed him with distance maintaining of 20 meters.
After a while man stopped and loosened the grip on plant. All woman also stopped gulping once.
Man moved his sight scanning his surroundings, his posture changing as if ready for something as his gaze stopped at left.
All woman stared intently as a shadow came from tree bushes and man have also taken action, his feat already above ground. Both collided, rolled on the forest floor.
Man had his iron grip around wolf jaw. Wolf moved paws to threaten him but it is already over as the man have raised the wolf by its jaw, its back legs aren't also touching the ground. Just four constant punches from him, wolf went limp.
While all woman felt four drums beating on top of their heart. Only little girl cheered very quietly seeing the man fighting with wolf "Uncle is super strong."
