CH.14 An Unexpected Visitor
"Haruka, you stay here!" Hetila stood in front of Haruka, "I know your current situation very well, your magic has not recovered at all, has he?"
"This... ”
"You've lost the ability to fight, so leave it to me. ”
"Then be careful... Try not to clash with the enemy. ”
"Don't worry, I know the battlefield better than you do. Hetila said with a smile, turning to Fox and Millie, "You're just waiting here with Haruka. ”
"Understood, you can go with confidence. Foss sat down beside Haruka with Millie in his arms......
On the barren plains, a horse-drawn carriage painted black was slowly moving along the rough road. A total of four suspicious figures in gray cloaks rode in the carriage, and except for one person in charge of driving the carriage, the other three looked around vigilantly.
"Are you sure she'll be here?" asked one of them.
"Of course, I'm pretty sure. The other replied.
"The terrain here looks very weird, and this deep rift doesn't look like it's natural. The other man stared at his surroundings and said alertly.
"There's a very faint remnant of mana, it looks like a scar from some kind of attack magic. ”
"Hey?!Really, there is such a powerful magic?!"
"There should have been a very fierce battle here. ”
"That's right, I can smell a faint smell of blood in the air......" The driver raised his head, the hood on his head sliding down, revealing his elongated ears.
"Hey, hey, why are you showing your head!, isn't the hidden magic on the cloak invalid!" the other shouted.
"Shhhhh
"Hey!? ”
"There!!" one of the men in the carriage leaped to his feet, red magic instantly lingering all over his body, and he uncovered his cloak in the air, and a huge black scythe appeared in his hand out of thin air. With the sword in his hand, two huge sword qi roared and slammed towards the small hill in front of the carriage on the right. Accompanied by the dust that had already overflowed with the exploding sword qi, a figure jumped up from there.
"Damn! I didn't expect to be discovered so soon!" Hertila, the shadow's true form was Hetila, and she did a backflip in the air as she drew her saber from her waist, and just as she landed, she threw the throwing weapon she had prepared with the magic array attached to it at the opponent.
In the face of the incoming weapon, the enemy holding the giant scythe sat back and made a charging action, and at the same time, the red magic power turned into a biting cold, and the moment the black scythe was randomly swung, the huge cold instantly created a huge and crystalline icicle in the air, and Hetila's attack was all frozen.
"It's a demon again! I really won't let them go so easily! I have to lead them somewhere else anyway. Hetila quickly strengthened his whole body with his magic power, and at the same time swung several sword qi at the enemy in succession, randomly spread his legs, and ran in the opposite direction of the cave where they were, hoping to take the enemy far away from here.
What she didn't expect, however, was that another foe in a cloak had already taken the lead in the direction she was going.
"Damn, I can only force my way through!!" she gritted her teeth and stabbed her sword with all her might at the seemingly skinny foe.
"Bang-" Hetila's thrust seemed to be seen through by the other party, and at the moment when the tip of the sword was about to touch the other party, the enemy suddenly turned sideways, the blade of the sword brushed the strap of the shawl, and at the same time, the other party also drew his sword and slashed at her hilt from the side, seemingly small force but skillfully knocked her sword down. At the same time, the other party's shawl also slipped off, revealing its original appearance.
"You... Are you human?!" Looking at the girl in front of her, Hetila looked confused.
"That's right, we're not from the Demon King's Army. The other three people also gathered around, and it happened to be a combination of two men and two women.
"I don't believe you! This woman with a scythe is obviously a demon!" Hetila looked at each other hostilely.
"I'm sorry, Sister Elianan does have half of the demon blood, but she has nothing to do with the Demon King Army, and she is our companion. The girl explained.
"And what about the elf?" Hetila turned her gaze to the boy who had been driving the carriage before, with its long ears, blond hair, and blue pupils.
"I won't explain them one by one, several of us are students of Hurst College, and we are here for Haruka. ”
"What!? Haruka!"
"That's right, judging by your expression, you should know where Haruka is, right?"
"Haruka did say that he wanted to go back to Hurst Academy, but I don't think there will be any classmates in the academy who are willing to risk their lives to break into the demon-controlled area to find him. ”
"You're right, but we're homeless now. The girl said with a wry smile.
"What do you mean?"
"The kingdom of Surfara has fallen, and Hurst Academy has been reduced to ruins. ”
Are you serious?"
"That's right, so you should know Haruka's power, it's an existence that can change the tide of battle, so we must bring her back safely. ”
“。。。。。。 Hetila pondered for a moment and stretched out her hand to the girl in front of her, "My name is Hetila, and I am the head of the Third Dragon Knights of Altinia. ”
"My name is Natalie. The girl took her hand......
