BOOOM!
As soon as the barrier vanished under Elias' powerful ray attack, the heroes rushed inside with a fierce determination. Jason was the first to charge, pointing his sword at the demons with righteous fury.
"Release Nathan right away, demons!" he shouted, swinging his sword with all his might.
"Earth mages!" Jagon barked, signaling his mages behind him.
A few demons stepped forward, each raising a staff. The ground trembled as they channeled their magic.
CREEAK!!!
Suddenly, several thick, robust walls of earth erupted from the ground, forming a solid barrier in front of the demons. The heroes, including Jason, unleashed a barrage of attacks, but their efforts were in vain. The earthen walls absorbed the blows, causing a massive explosion that sent stones and dust flying everywhere.
"Oh!!"
"I can't see anything!!"
"W...Where are you guys?!"
The heroes, caught too close to the walls, found themselves either lightly injured by flying debris or blinded by the thick dust that now filled the air. Their uncoordinated assault had backfired spectacularly.
In stark contrast, the demons moved with practiced precision, having fought together for their lives countless tis. Jagon didn't need to give further instructions. The earth mages combined their mana, raising even more formidable walls around the heroes, encircling them within a dust-filled trap.
"Step back with !" Jagon ordered his n.
They nodded in unison, retreating several ters to regroup with the mages.
"Fire mages!!" Jagon signaled, this ti calling on those with a strong affinity for fire.
"YES!!!" they responded, raising their staffs. Fireballs began to form above them, glowing ominously.
BOOOM!
But before the fire mages could launch their attack, the thick walls imprisoning the heroes burst apart.
"Don't underestimate us, BASTARDS!!!" Aiden's voice roared, dripping with hatred. His large, toothed sword glowed red, having broken through the earthen walls after several relentless strikes.
Though the dust still hindered their vision, a sudden breeze blew through the battlefield, clearing the air.
The breeze was calm and soothing, the mana behind it feeling regal and refined. It was a beautiful mana.
"Disperse," a soft voice rang out.
WHOOOOSH!
In an instant, all the dust was blown away by the beautiful wind. All the demons' gazes fell on a single girl. She was one of the most beautiful they had ever seen, rivaling even their leader, Catnys. Her blond hair floated in the wind, and her green eyes looked at them with annoyance.
"G…Gwen!!" Her classmates cheered upon realizing it was Gwen who had blown away all the dust in an instant.
For so reason, she seed even more annoyed now.
"Thank you, Gwen!" Jason flashed a dazzling smile before turning around. "Ti to—"
Before he could finish, a figure blurred past him at great speed. The nice perfu of the girl filled his nostrils as he saw who it was.
"S...Sienna!" Jason looked dumbfounded as Sienna, wearing beautiful light armor, shot past him with her gladius sword. It resembled a Roman gladius but was longer and lighter, perfect for her speed and agility.
Jagon, seeing another world-toppling beauty, was montarily dazed until he noticed the murderous aura she exuded. She was weaker than him, so why did he feel so on guard around her?
"Release quick!" Jagon shouted to his fire mages, who imdiately unleashed a barrage of fireballs, shooting toward Sienna and the other heroes following behind.
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
One by one, the fireballs struck everything below. Sienna, seeing the fireballs lighting up the sky and dangerously approaching her, stretched out her hand holding her sword and swung diagonally upward.
SWIIIISH!!!
Her swing was so powerful that it cut through the air with a loud, slicing sound, splitting the fireball heading toward her in two. When another one followed, she dodged it with ease, her speed and agility making her movents appear almost effortless.
Her gaze was cold and serious as she weaved through the fireballs. Ahead of her, Sienna had eyes only for Jagon. He seed to be their leader, and she would beat the truth about Nathan out of him. If he didn't answer her, she would kill him. The only thing she wanted right now was to see her younger brother alive and well. She could still feel his warmth from when he hugged her.
It had always been awkward between them, especially when Nathan acted differently around their father. But in this world, it was different. The few tis he talked to her and hugged her, she could see his genuine care, showing a side of him he never revealed before. Even now, she couldn't quite understand who he was, but she knew sothing wasn't right.
The cold relationship between him and their father hinted at a hidden past. She understood sothing had happened, but she never brought up the subject since they weren't close enough. She regretted all of that. She cared for Nathan, and her care for him only deepened since they arrived in this world.
She wanted to redo everything, like it should have been when they were adopted by Nathan's father, but this ti she wouldn't act like it wasn't her business. Nathan was her family, so he was her business.
"Jagon! She is coming toward us!!"
Jagon scoffed. "I will take care of her. Silgor, lead our mage unit to support Surag, who will take care of the other heroes and knights with our own n."
"Count on , Jagon," Silgor, the most talented mage after Catnys, nodded and retreated with the mages.
"Be careful, Jagon. I feel two monstrous presences, and one of them is definitely—"
"A Divine Knight, I know. Don't worry. Be careful yourself, Surag." Jagon nodded seriously as he raised his sharp sword.
"Yes."
Once they wished each other luck, Jagon turned his gaze toward Sienna, rushing toward him. He smirked, taking a small step.
WOOOSH!
"!" Sienna widened her eyes as she saw Jagon vanishing from his spot. The next mont, she felt a shadow looming right next to her. Jagon, with his sword raised high and a cold gaze, swung down his blade. Sienna reacted swiftly, bringing her sword to clash against his.
CLANG!
A tallic sound resounded, followed by a shockwave. Sienna grunted, her whole body turning numb from the impact. The strength behind Jagon's strike was too powerful. Taking advantage, Jagon kicked Sienna, but she quickly protected her stomach by tilting her sword. Unable to resist the impact, she was flung away, colliding through the wall of a house.
CRASH!
The force of the collision left a cloud of dust and debris. Sienna, dazed but determined, pulled herself from the wreckage.
"Sienna!!! You!!" Jason's eyes blazed with fury, his expression contorting with rage as he prepared to unleash his power. "Light-"
"DEMON BASTARD!!!" Unfortunately for Jason, his incantation was cut short once again.
Jagon raised his eyes to see Aiden charging toward him, wielding a massive sword raised high, poised to deliver a crushing blow. The sword glowed ominously red, signaling a dangerous and powerful attack that Jagon knew he couldn't afford to let touch him.
"Four Star Wind Magic. Whirlwind," Jagon intoned, stretching out his hand.
BOOOOM!
A deafening explosion of wind erupted, creating a powerful gust that swept Aiden off his feet and hurled him backward, along with his sword.
"Sword of Light!"
Jagon's attention snapped toward the new voice. Jason, eyes blazing with determination, swung his sword, now glowing brilliantly with light, directly at Jagon.
Sensing the lethal threat from Jason's sword, Jagon leaped back swiftly. As he landed, his gaze shifted to his left where he saw a giant bird made entirely of water hurtling toward him with incredible speed.
"!"
His eyes then caught sight of a stunning girl with auburn hair and piercing blue eyes—Siara, the one commanding the water bird.
In midair, Jagon quickly swung his own sword and chanted, "Five Star Fire Magic, Fire Wall!"
SPLASH!
The fiery wall collided with the water bird, causing an intense clash that resulted in a burst of steam and vapor, enveloping the entire area in a thick, obscuring mist.
Leaping out of the smoky shroud, Jagon landed and looked around, his brow furrowed in confusion as he scanned the area behind the Heroes.
"Where is he?" He muttered, realizing he couldn't see Elias, the one responsible for destroying the barrier.
