After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 137

[19 days of Protection Period]

The pair of eyes belonged similar-looking men with tanned skin and light-colored hair. Quite handsome with their large builds and chiseled features.

At the moment though, the men’s eyes were fixed upward, eyes locked on the gorgeous woman jumping from platform to platform. She was pulling her arrows, hitting the targets with grace and accuracy.

They couldn’t help but admire how effortless she was moving across the small plateaus. As she shifted, her striking eyes were focused on the targets at hand, with her hands drawing a slender bow with a unique sheen.

With practiced movements, she notched an arrow and released it—sending it straight to the head of a level 2 monster, killing it with one shot.

It was a fascinating sight.

And then they realize—very belatedly—that the woman was PREGNANT!

Very, very, pregnant.

"Are you seeing this, uncle?" Helios, the younger one with slightly longer and wavy hair, whipped his head to his uncle, whose eyes never left the woman at all.

The duo had gone to this gate because they had wanted to assist the territory in a low-key way, away from most of the bustle at the other gate.

The two of them had entered the territory through the Eastern gate a few days prior. They were one of the few who had understood its existence, as most of the others didn’t even know they had an Eastern gate.

They didn’t expect that there was someone else so far in front of them. Even if they did, it was definitely not what they had expected to see when they got here.

"Hmn," Hugo, the taller man with a slightly larger build and crew-cut hair, nodded, eyes widening a little when the woman slipped a little but managed to regain her balance a second later.

"Very skilled." He said very succinctly, and his nephew nodded in agreement.

Hugo’s parents had him very late in life, and instead of his brother, his nephew who was five years younger was more like his sibling.

Hugo had hit level 4 just before entering the territory and Helios was at the latter part of level 3.

They considered themselves pretty strong, and that they should be able to assist in the handling of the mob here with the help of the sentries, but they found out they could not compare to a pregnant woman.

It was both emasculating and amazing.

However, they weren’t stupid enough to think the woman was invincible and did not need help.

Hugo nudged his nephew forward as he himself sauntered to the battlefield.

"Miss! Do you need help?" Helios asked and he couldn’t help but gape at the beautiful woman when she turned her head to them, meeting her deep emerald eyes.

Hugo felt embarrassed and patted his shoulder. "Don’t you see she’s busy? Just do it."

The two of them took out their arrows, hitting the monsters with precision not much inferior to hers.

When their arrows were gone, they shifted to their close-range weapons. With Helios waving his wooden sword and Hugo with his spear.

They jumped to the mob of level 1s, as Althea had been taking care specifically of level 2s alone. They were valiant and skilled, obviously practiced.
