The Fearsome Dragon Warrior

Chapter 263

Jacob said while stretching out his hand to fondle his daughter's braid, "Daddy will catch the fawn for you."

"Really?" Heidi's eyes widened in glee.

"Daddy will never bluff you." He gave her a tender smile and then strode away.

It was a breezy day tucked away in a valley. A rainbow pheasant crowed and flew out of the thickets.

Fiona trudged through the ankle-tall bushes and said to Heidi, "Your father is such a liar! How could a person possibly outrun a fawn?!"

Heidi turned and glanced at her. She pursed her lips and was at a loss for words.

After a moment of silence, Heidi clenched her fists and found her voice, "That's not true! My daddy... my daddy is capable!"

Upon hearing Heidi defend him and call him daddy from behind him, although her voice was faint and irresolute, it was enough to paint a wide smile on Jacob's face. His long legs and quick pace enabled him to arrive at the edge of the grove in a hot minute.

"He's so fast!" Keysha was impressed as she exclaimed in her coquettish voice.

And the two little girls held their breaths as they caught the unbelievable sight of the man matching and closing his pace on the fawn. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Moira was the only person that didn't bat an eye because she knew he was no ordinary man. It was not a surprise to her at all.

"Bleat bleat!"

A quickened and anxious deer bleating exploded from the woods.

The fawn looked up with its slot-shaped eyes and saw that a tall and sturdy figure was closing in.

Its ears twitched in alarm. It wanted to evade Jacob while the latter gestured an arbitrary pressing movement with his right hand.

Suddenly, the breeze came to a still. The air was stagnant. The fawn was terrified, and it stopped moving.

Jacob stood three steps away from the fawn. He turned around and glanced at his daughter, who was in heightened focus and suppressed breathing.

Suddenly, an acute energy shot out from the grove. Jacob pivoted and stuck out his right hand like a lightning bolt.

Whiff!

An arrow emerged from nowhere and pierced through the deer's front leg.

Bleat! Bleat! Bleat!

The fawn wailed in excruciating pain. Its leg lost balance, and its body collapsed to the ground.

Jacob broke the feather arrow that he had managed to intercept into half. With gloom in his eyes, he turned around and scanned around and into the grove, trying to glean danger.

His guard was down just now. He didn't expect to come across a violent interlude in a peaceful and serene valley like this.

It was unfortunate that the fawn had been harmed. Otherwise, with his ability, he could even stop bullets, let alone a feathered arrow.

Soon, a group of men and women dressed in hunting suits with bows and arrows in their hands emerged from the thickets.

On the other side, the two little girls noticed something was not right. They sped up their pace and ran over to check out the situation.

"Slow down!"

"Watch your step!"

Moira and Keysha reminded the girls inadvertently.

They came to the fawn and saw that the fawn was in distress. Jacob knelt and gently rubbed its injured leg. He held the end of the arrow while pulling it out from the other end in an instant.

Bleat bleat!

The fawn wailed helplessly. Its body was trembling in pain and fright.

"Hey, what are you trying to do? That fawn belongs to us."

As they dashed over, a rebuke was heard from the group of men and women.

There were four men and three women. Among them, there were two young men with towering physiques and sharp gazes. One was leading in the front, and the other was keeping up behind the group.

The remaining five people looked like they were about twenty-five years old. All of them were good- looking.

Jacob stared at the doe that was on the shoulders of the last man. Then, he turned and looked at his daughter who was running towards him.
