Chapter 5 - “THEY ARE ALL YOURS!”

The room slightly shaked as a deep voice admired what they it didn't expect. "Humans here, Wow, pretty brave!" said the yellow Aura Drai that had it's yellow Aura looming around it while a blaze danced on it's hands as it shown off its skill. It's eyes were blue and yellow, scary as they sat on the four humans, Akirion, Emily, Emma and Elina.

The yellow Aura was the boss of the flow and it looked skillful too. It's gaze was sharp, glaring at Akirion who was in the middle of the triangle, his cold eyes glaring back at the Drai.

The Drai had it's soldiers — goblins and elves as normal soldiers then 4 figures stood beside the throne. Two elves and undeads.

The elves were muscled, sky blue all over with long ears and yellow shaded eyes. It also had long black hair.

Undeads. Tall—2 meter tall. Far more different from the normal ones. These two were carrying swords, with bit of skins too. Red lights pierced out of the round hole of their eyes. Those could be their eyes.

"Ohh, Guess who are speechless, I thought maybe humans were the most loud creatures in this…human world." it felt comfortable on its less conformable throne that was well designed like a King's. It was made of crystal. The hall was as big as the other floors.

Emily stepped forward, her footstep softly thudding on the ground. "Ahhahhh, we can speak." she said as she waved her index finger that was pointed upwards with a smile printed on her face. Then, the smile faded instantly as she said, "But…. Are you ready to surrender?"

The Drai felt like Emily was teasing her. "Hahaha surrender….? Over my de..."

A cold voice came out sharp and expensive. It was hard and harsh, cutting the Drai mid second because it couldn't afford to talk while that voice roared too. "You don't need to tell us!" Akirion said, his voice growling from his chest. His eyes flashed gold for a second and that made the boss to gasp. Suddenly, he leapt leaving a message to the girls.

"They are all yours!" He said, his voice barely above a whisper. His eyes were narrowed, landing the message even to the deaf.

"You heard him.. triangle formation now." when he leapt, Elina became incharge.

"Why is she supposed to order us around?" Emily muttered with a Lower voice.

Emma quietly went to the right with no complains since Elina had already taken the middle part.

The goblins charged in recklessly as if they were puppies called for dinner. As for the elves, they remained behind with their bows and arrows ready to fire.

Akirion on the other hand, he appeared infront of the throne, behind the goblins. They didn't see him and he was tackling the boss while they thought that they were protecting it.

When Akirion stopped, he was blocked by the undeads' swords that were crossed. Then the elves were on their knees, ready for an opening with their arrows clinging on the bow and string, ready to shoot.

"Good eyes." Said Akirion as he saw the undeads blocking his way while he raced the wind in the middle of the goblins but they didn't notice him.

The undeads responded by attacking. They moved their swords towards Akirion's neck. He bent backwards, leaning on thin air, letting the swords pass on top of his nose. He felt the pressure that blew his messy black hair.

He suddenly stood back normally before they swing their swords back. His Aura was hidden, no enhanced magic speed, it was his own only speed. He leapt higher than their height and shot their faces with ice.

They stumbled backwards, with their left hands clutching the ice that was stuck on their faces like glue.

Before he landed on the ground, he was intercepted by 2 arrows that were aiming his chest. He widened his eyes and narrowed them. Suddenly, a wall covered him up and protected him from the arrow danger.

He landed with his right hand reaching out for a sword on his back. A blade sound echoed as he took out his sword.

He then saw a gap on the undeads stomach. He shot an ice to that hole and it exploded like— making a lot spikes that poked out of its skin that was more like an animal skin.

Its spine and all the middle parts were frozen. He then casted a final spell. He made an arrow , a spear to geminate from the ground and it shot from underneath it and it pierced through its waist and came out from the head.

The red eyes that were flashing through the ice suddenly faded.

'1 down, 4 to go.' He turned around as he took a deep breath.

"You are next" he said, his eyes flashing white.

He casted another iced water spell. It made spiky ice all over towards the undead. The undead unexpectedly reacted and cut a lot of spikes that were about to stab it.

It then leapt, charging towards Akirion. Its moves were unpredictable. It initiated a strike on Akirion. He only put his sword infront of him and caught a glimpse of the undead's sword flying towards his face.

He blocked 4 strikes from the undead and got a simple cut on his face—cheek. The undead stood behind him and turned around and looked at Akirion who also turned.

They made an eye contact, and that second, the ice on the undead's face fell down in pieces as if it was a broken glass.

"Mhh, next time I'll be butchering your skinny bones." Mockingly, he said, his voice calm and cold and his narrowed eyes flashing green.

His coat was moving up as the silent wind blew from below. Suddenly, his right hand went forward — pointing at the undead, then in that second, he swiftly pointed it upwards.

A lot of vines shot from the ground under the undead. Unfortunately, they were no use since it was more flexible.

It leapt and attacked Akirion from the top.

"Mhh, bad idea!"
