Language Cheat Reincarnation – Young Girl VTuber Saves the World

Chapter 396. [The Sound Of Angel's Wings]

The roar of beasts... no, the roar of jaguars was resounding.

Their words sounded like this to me:

""Save our family and comrades!""

【Gyaaaaah!? W-what... what is this... why are they attacking us!?】

【Of all times, why now!?】

Screams rose from some of those surrounding me.

There, a total of four jaguars were putting on a fierce fight.

Could it be... are they doing this for me?

At the jaguars' feet, those who had been bitten or slashed by claws lay injured. But they were trained individuals—they quickly recovered.

【Don't let them get close! Permission to fire!】

【Damn beasts, how dare they!】

【They're just animals. One bullet will make them flee in panic.】

They coordinated in Russian while aiming their guns. Then, with a dry crack, the muzzle flashed—

【Wha!? They dodged the bullets!?】

The jaguars leaped back the moment the guns were aimed at them, as if avoiding the shots. Yes, they knew.

The terror of bullets.

The pain they bring.

And using their agility, they literally tore through the flank of the unit. But...

""—Gyaah!?""

""My son!""

The numbers and skill of these opponents were incomparable to what they had faced before.

Bullets hit, and they were struck down.

At that moment, the mother jaguar let out an especially loud roar.

The air vibrated intensely, and even those wielding the overwhelming violence of guns broke into a cold sweat.

But I understood her words.

She was shouting:

""—Run!""

Now, everyone's attention was on the mother jaguar.

I didn't hesitate.

I turned and ran.

It took them a few seconds to notice my escape.

【Damn it!? Shit, chase her down quickly!】

I slipped through the gap in the encirclement created by the jaguars' fierce fight.

But my speed was no match for theirs.

Even if I escaped once, I'd be caught again soon.

Still, I ran—so as not to waste the jaguars' efforts.

I couldn't let that happen.

So, I ran with all my might.

"Hah, hah..."

Rough breaths escaped my mouth.

I stumbled over tree roots, nearly falling multiple times.

The sound of footsteps chasing me grew closer.

I didn't have the luxury to look back.

A few seconds, or maybe tens of seconds.

That was all the time I had to keep running.

"Kyah!?"

【This brat, causing us so much trouble!】

My arm was grabbed.

Still, I desperately resisted.

"No! Let go!"

【Stop struggling, damn it!】

"—Agh!?"

I was struck on the temple with the stock of a gun.

Drip, drip... blood flowed, dripping onto the ground.

My body went limp.

I collapsed to my knees.

【Hah, hah... finally calmed down, huh? Come on!】

My consciousness was fading.

My grabbed arm was yanked.

I was dragged along the ground.

My legs scraped against the ground, bleeding, but... they didn't care.

"Ah... ugh, ah..."

【Finally, we can leave this sweltering, disgusting jungle... huh?】

That's when it happened.

A strange sound came from nowhere.

It wasn't the jaguars' cries.

It was closer to the sound of gunfire... but not quite the sound of shots.

【N-no way...!?】

A panicked voice was heard.

He dragged me even more forcefully back to the original spot.

The jaguars were no longer there.

But thankfully, there were no corpses.

They hadn't been killed; they must have escaped.

Knowing how clever they were, they were surely safe.

But more importantly, this sound.

What is this...?

【Captain! What is that!?】

【Ah, it seems...】

【—Our mission has failed.】

The area opened up slightly, and looking up, I could see the sky.

Against the blue backdrop, there it was...

"—A helicopter?"

Clearly military, several camouflaged helicopters.

Some of them had their machine guns trained on those who had come to capture me.

At the same time, soldiers began rappelling down one after another.

Their numbers were incomparable to the relatively small group of covert infiltrators.

《All of you, drop your weapons.》

The announcement echoed from the helicopters.

Hearing this, the man called 'Captain'—placed his gun on the ground.

One by one, the others followed suit.

Soon, the descending soldiers began restraining them.

One soldier approached me and spoke the words I had longed to hear for so long.

《—We've come to save you.》

"...Ah... ahhhh!"

The helicopters looked like angels to me.

The sound of their rotors beating the air sounded like the flapping of angels' wings.

The jaguars' attack on the assailants and the few seconds they bought me to escape had decided my fate.

Without that time, I would have been taken deep into the forest—somewhere I couldn't have been found from the air.

I was finally—saved.
