A loud thud made the ground to vibrate and Ray looked at a large boar unlike any he had seen.
"T..This isn't the fanged boar I faced in the forest, this is an infected evolved fanged boar"
All the students shivered at re sight of the beast, they can't defeat re boars, what are they supposed to do against this large creature.
"I don't want to die" one of the students burst into tears.
"Most of the students began to cry especially the girls, most of them lost hope and knelt on the ground waiting for their death.
Whistling sound were heard and two arrows hit two of the boars on their neck, the boars that were behind the students fell to the ground.
"What was that?"
"The senior knights are here" one of the students shouted.
Loud galloping sounds filled the forest and hope returned to the eyes of the students, the senior Knights rode horses and arrived at the other end.
Authur and a male knight were the only one with horses while the rest of the knight quickly ran towards the students.
"Protect the students at all cost, so of you follow " Authur shouted and ran off, so of the knights followed him while the rest surrounded the students.
"Attack on my mark"
"Now"
The knights charged towards all the boars at once and attacked them.
...
Inside the boars dungeon
"Hmm.. this is interesting, the boars are not attacking a young boy, I wonder why"
"What.. the boars are not attacking a young boy, what does that ans?" the silver haired man asked.
"Blue hair and blue eyes, do you recognize this feature?" the master asked.
"Yes, it's the sa as the boy who swallowed beast crystals"
"So he's a beast disguised as human, a perfect cover" the man smiled.
"He's a beast... but why is he helping humans, I know beast hate humans and besides what kind of beast is he, is he like you..?"
"No, he different I wonder what he is, you guys should bring him here, I'm waiting"
"Wait now... okay master" the two silver haired n left the dungeon with speed.
...
The knights finally killed all the boars, the large boar ran away, not because of fear but he was called back by the man in the dungeon.
The knights interpreted it differently thinking the boar ran away from fear.
"Is anyone hurt" a female knight asked.
"No" the students answered.
"We are lucky everyone is safe, I pray the other groups are also safe"
"We are returning back to camp quickly" a man knight shouted and the students readied themselves to leave.
"Not so fast" a voice said from behind them.
All the students quickly turn back, the knights also checked to see who was behind them.
The two silver haired n were standing behind the students, they were dressed in black robe with red designs on it and wore white mask that covered the whole of their faces.
"Who are you?" one of the knights asked.
All the students ran behind the knights, Ray stared at the two n very closely, it felt like he had seen them before but just couldn't figure out where.
"We are not here to cause trouble, we just need sothing and we'll be on our way"
"And what would that be?"
"We need one of your students and we'll be gone, and please make it quick we don't have much ti" the man said.
"Do you think we would give you one of our students, why do you need one of our students" the knights asked.
The students mumbled among themselves, and Ray finally rembered where he saw them.
'They were in my vision, they are the ones who would attack the capital in a few weeks'
"This is becoming a drag, we really don't want to fight you knights but you aren't giving us much of a choice" the man said.
"You talk big for people who are outnumbered, we are giving you a chance to leave while we are still friendly" one of the knights said.
Ray walked towards the knights quickly so he could get a chance to hear what they were talking about.
"Hey, should we attack?" one of them asked the other one.
"I don't know, what are we going to do, we were sent to bring back the boy, and we can't leave without him"
All the knights readied their weapons and faced the n ready to strike.
"Hey, look we found him" one of the n said and all the knights looked back and saw Ray walked towards them.
"What are you doing, go back" a knight shouted at him.
"Are you the one they are looking for?" another knight asked him.
"Yes, he is the one, if you hand him over to us we will be on our way and everyone will be happy"
"You seem to think this is a joke, we will attack you if you try any thing stupid" a knight said.
"What is he doing there?" Jack asked.
"I don't know, is he the one they are looking for?" Lily questioned.
"Maybe they are the ones responsible for the infected beasts" Arya said.
"Lilith take the students back to the camp, we are going to take care of this, follow them back" the knight spoke to the female knight in his back and also to Ray.
The female knight nas Lilith instructed the other knights to take the students back to camp, but she stayed behind, the knights were now six in numbers including Ray.
"Are you the ones responsible for the infected beasts?" Ray asked them, the knights were shocked by his question, why would these guys be responsible.
"Yes we are" one of the silver haired n answered, one of them did the talking while the other one stood still and did nothing like he was bored.
"You are responsible for the attacks, attack them" the knights shouted in anger and all the other knights moved into action.
'Bad idea' one of them smirked.
"Haaa" the knight shouted as he dashed forward with speed that even Ray missed him for a second.
As the knight got close to them, one of them whispered so words and stretch his hand and touched the knight, the next second the knight vanished into thin air.
Both the Ray and the knights were shocked by what they just saw, did he die, what just happened, that was the question they all asked themselves as they saw what happened.
Galloping sounds were heard along with other noises, Authur and so of the knights returned back, Authur saw so knights along with two people that he didn't recognize.
Authur didn't know what happened but he quickly got down from his horse and ran to the front where the two n were.
"What is happening here, who are those?" Authur asked one of the knights.
"They are the ones responsible for the attacks and they just killed Baron" a knight answered him.
"So you are the person in charge, we would like you to hand over this boy and we would promise your safety"
"You killed Baron" Authur said with anger in his voice.
"Sir don't, he has a strange magic, Baron went close to him and vanished into thin air" the female knight nad Lilith told Authur.
"Hey it's not a strange magic, and I didn't kill him I just sent him back"
"Back to where" Authur shouted.
"Back to the camp, I'm not a bad guy who would kill a person like that, when I kill, I kill for a reason, for the greater good, besides if I want all of you dead, we wouldn't be having this conversation" the man spoke with crushing confidence.
"What do you want, why did you attack the base?" Authur asked.
"I'm not sure if I should answer that, well it's not like you can do anything" the man said.
"I'm going to sit down, I'm tired of standing, master is resting so we have enough ti to joke around, just make sure you get the boy" the other one said and went to sit down by a tree.
"Get the boy, which boy?" Authur asked.
Authur looked around and noticed Ray standing there.
"What is he doing here, is he the one they were looking for?"
"Yes but I don't know why" the female knight said.
Authur turned to Ray, "Why are they looking for you, do you know them?"
"I don't know them, why are you looking for ?" Ray asked the silver haired man.
"Wait, don't tell they don't know that you are a...., I shouldn't say it, you guys should hand him over I'm also tired" the man said.
"Do you think we would just hand over one of our students to you, you must think we are weak" Authur smiled.
"Ohh, so you have a trick up your sleeve, okay impress " the man said.
"Ray return back to camp, we'll talk later, that is an order" Authur shouted.
"But, how do you plan to defeat him?"
"You must also think I'm weak because you have never seen fighting, Ryan take him back to camp" Authur said and removed his sword.
"Your magic, I've heard of it before, I wonder how you managed to get your hands on a forbidden magic, but today you would beco a prisoner" Authur shouted and dashed forward towards the man.
