Sebas calmly advanced forward, slowly leaving behind the three won who watched his departure with a mix of apprehension and unease.
ROOOOARRRR!!!
The wyverns themselves beca even more frenzied... as they all witnessed the human who showed neither fear nor hesitation.
The wyverns that had perched on the corpse pile flew high into the air, rejoining their brethren soaring across the sky.
Sebas then... raised his free left hand—a green ethereal light glowed from his palm...!
"He can use magic...?!" the knight, Martha, exclaid, surprised by the revelation of the butler's power—a sentint shared by her mistress and her fellow aide.
"Wind Arcana..."
The butler paid no heed to their astonishnt, focusing solely on the 'magic' gathering in his left hand...!
"... Feathers' Bound," he chanted the spell...!
Soon, the greenish mana gathered in his hand flowed swiftly toward his feet, slowly enveloping them in the sa green ethereal glow...!
And before long... he imdiately rushed forward!
The speed of his advance shocked the three won, baffled by the sheer swiftness with which the butler charged toward the wyverns...!
But that was not the end of the surprise.
Sebas then jumped high into the air, ascending rapidly toward the nearest wyvern in the sky!
ROARR!!!
The wyvern he was approaching roared in alarm, attempting to fend off the "flying" human—
But Sebas simply dodged the beast's snapping maw... and then swung his longsword down at its neck—!
The wyvern's long, scaly neck was cleanly severed by the butler with no resistance!
"One down."
The severed-head wyvern and its headless body soon plumted to the ground...
Sebas was now in the air—floating as if he were standing on solid ground—as he faced the other wyverns. Naturally, they all beca agitated, not just by the presence of the human himself, but also by witnessing their brethren slain by the sword of this sa human...!
ROOAAARRR!!!
The Alpha of the wyverns roared, trying to assert dominance. The other wyverns scattered briefly, flying in erratic patterns and circling the butler warily...
ROOAAAAARRR!!!
The Alpha roared once more—a command to the other wyverns to attack the defiant human...! And its brethren surged toward the butler in a unified assault!
The wyverns struck one after another, their winged claws and massive jaws ready to maim him...!
But-!
Sebas "leapt" into the air—his steps as though the very air itself had beco solid beneath him! He dodged each of the wyverns' assaults, one by one!
Each attempt on his life he avoided within just a hair's breadth...! Even when one lunged at him from behind, he dodged effortlessly—his movents fluid, as if he could see behind him without turning his head.
On the ground, the three won were awe-struck by the display of unmatched skill and grace by their enigmatic butler. They had never expected such graceful movent from the man... especially not for one battling in the sky.
No matter how much these scaled flying beasts tried, Sebas simply dodged them with little to no effort... as if he were dancing in the air.
And then eventually, one wyvern ca for him as with the others; its massive form barreled toward him, jaws wide open, ready to tear him apart—
But Sebas spun in midair... with his long sword flashing as it cut through the wyvern's neck in a single, clean motion!
"Two down."
The beast's severed head fell first, its lifeless body following as it plumted to the ground—joining the remains of its already-slain brethren below.
His carnage had begun.
One wyvern tried to avenge its fallen brethren by rushing at him, but Sebas simply "side-stepped" in mid-air, swinging his sword at the sa vulnerable neck as its brethren and cutting it clean...!
"Three down."
Another tried to attack him from above... but he simply dodged again, quickly circling toward its back. In a swift motion, he stabbed the beast's spine—piercing through its thick-scaled hide—right to its heart, killing it instantly!
"Four down."
Another attempted to strike from below, but he simply "back-stepped" away from its lunge! As soon as he dodged the wyvern's massive jaws snapping from beneath, he followed through with a swift stab of his sword right below its mouth, piercing straight into the beast's skull!
"Five down."
The wyverns continued their almost pointless assault on the human. However, not only did he dodge them effortlessly, he countered instantly with deadly, precise strikes...!
"Six."
"Seven."
Each wyvern he slayed fell to the ground lifelessly, leaving fewer and fewer of them... along with their morale.
"Eight."
"Nine."
And eventually, all that remained were just two wyverns—the smaller, normal-sized 'lesser' wyvern and the larger Alpha.
The last two beca extrely hesitant, their fear more than evident in their trembling flight patterns and faltering movents.
ROAARR!!!
The Alpha roared and glared at the butler, trying its best to intimidate the human who had slaughtered its brethren. But of course, Sebas was unfazed, simply staring back at the Alpha as if it had never been a threat to begin with.
ROAARRRR!!!
With another roar, the Alpha ordered its last companion to attack the human, but... the lesser wyvern refused! It opted instead to flee, flapping its wings desperately in an attempt to escape the carnage—
"No point in running."
Sebas rushed toward it! In re seconds, he was already at the beast's side, his sword raised high above the sky and then... he struck the beast down!
"Ten down..." he muttered, his voice calm yet foreboding as he slowly turned to face the final wyvern—the Alpha itself.
ROAAARR!!!
With a furious cry, the Alpha launched itself toward Sebas, its massive form cutting through the air in a final, desperate attack. Its claws outstretched, its jaws wide, the beast surged forward with every ounce of strength it had left—driven by nothing but its fading pride...
But Sebas had already moved. Effortlessly, he sidestepped the Alpha's assault, his expression unchanged... as if the Alpha itself was no different than the rest of its fallen brethren.
"Last one."
His voice was calm, almost cold, as he raised his sword in the air... And with a single, decisive swing...
The Alpha Wyvern's life ended.
