The Ruler Of Night
Chaptre 44. Decisions



Two bright red lights emerged from behind the flying dust caused by Kana's attack.


Mio who initially felt nothing, suddenly got a very strong pressure to make herself seem unable to move.


"Hrrrrmmmmh~"


Along with the dust that began to fade, a sound that resembled a loud snoring was now heard very clearly.


"That's it," said Frey, stammered.


"No way," murmured Rin, who seemed so surprised when he saw the figure behind it.


A huge monster with a buffalo-like form and a huge axe in its right hand, was currently standing right before all of us.


"Rin! is that-" I said.


"Yes! it was a monster that attacked my group yesterday," Rin cut, explaining.


"Geeh! so it was that thing that made the two strongest male students unconscious huh?" Kana.


"Hoy!! Who do you think this is wrong?!" upset Julian.


"How do I know that there's a creature there!" refute Kana, who was even upset.


Things start to heat up a little when everyone is in a panic.


"Already friends! no matter how big the problem is we will definitely be able to deal with it together, have you forgotten?!" frey, trying to calm things down.


"Heuh, you're right! the enemy is only one, right? in terms of numbers and strength we've definitely won!" I said, with a defiant smile.


Fighting ensued, attack after attack we continued to launch on the monster.


With a terrible form and a large body alone is enough to describe how powerful the creature is.


It has already been several hours, a very sufficient time to exhaust the Mana we have.


Right now the sun has been directly overhead, but none of our attacks have been able to injure the monster's body.


"Fire Burnt!"


"Phoenix Spears!"


"Wind Arrow!"


Three combination attacks are performed, with fire magic belonging to Frey and also Kana fused with Rin's wind arrow.


*Seeet~


*Bhumm!!!


It soared very fast and powerful like a comet, until it finally exploded when the attack hit the monster's body with a bang.


The considerable impact of the attack just now, created a smog that enveloped the entire body of the monster.


"Successful!" frey.


That's how we thought, before an axe swing made a gust of wind strong enough to blow all the smoke that covered.


*Wusssh~


Contact us immediately cover the face with the arms, so that the dust that comes crashing does not enter the eyes.


In the midst of circumstances that made us lose our guard, the monster was immediately in front of Frey.


*BLARR!


Swinging his axe horizontally, the attack hit Frey very hard.


"Frey!!!" keras Julian, who felt panicked when he saw Frey had an attack.


Fortunately it can be stalked by Frey with his shield, until the attack only makes Frey's body crashed to the side and hit the cliff wall.


Not quite there, the monster then moved towards Kana. With an axe ready to shoot at any time, the creature was immediately in front of him.


"Great!" as for Cana, who knew it too late.


*Seeett~


With a vertical attack that seemed able to cut anything, an axe swing was again launched by the monster.


*CTIIING!!!


However, it was overcome by me who repelled the attack, after darting very quickly towards him.


"Windstorms!"


Unwilling to linger, I unleashed a twisting attack to keep him away from Cana.


*SRIYING~


By suppressing the natural energy a little more and the distance was that close, making the axe and body of the monster pushed several steps back.


Suddenly it made the others surprised and seemed to realize something, after various kinds of attacks launched were unsuccessful on the creature.


"Are you okay, Kana?" ask Me.


"Y-yeah! I'm fine, thank you" said Kana, as if not believing what just happened.


"Thank God then" I said.


I take a breath and then exhale it again, to control the overflowing energy.


"That was it." murmured Julian.


"Well! it doesn't seem as easy as we thought" said Frey, after getting back up.


"Are you okay, Frey?" anxious Mio.


"It's nothing to me!" sahut Frey, excited.


"It's not good, we're running out of time now" Julian said, as he walked closer to Frey.


"Yes you're right, we have to get this over with, quick" Frey said.


"But the monster is really strong" Julian said.


"Haha! are you scared, Julian?" taunted Frey.


Without replying to Frey's words, Julian appeared silent with a slightly restrained expression of annoyance.


"Everything!" frey said, firmly.


We focused on Frey.


"We have to break the group in two! to shorten the time left," he continued, giving instructions.


Obviously it made us all a little surprised by what Frey said just now, especially Kana.


"Huh?! what are you crazy about, Frey?" Kana.


"No, this is the best course of action we can take" Frey said.


"The six of us just can't beat the monster, how can you think of breaking the group in half?!" kana said, feeling upset.


"Be calm, as soon as you find the scroll, then come back and we'll get out of this valley" Julian said.


Kana, who was initially a little emotional with Frey's decision, seemed to start thinking about it again after hearing Julian's explanation.


"Yes! let me, Julian, and also Yuuta hold the monster here, the three of you go and find the scroll for us!" obviously Frey, with a reassuring smile on his face.


"justified? Yuta!" frey continued, making sure that everyone agreed.


"Yeah! Sure thing!" sahut me, excited.


"But are you sure you can hold the monster back?" mio asked, feeling worried.


"Do you doubt your teammate, Mio?" said Frey.


Mio, who was worried about her friends later, seemed to be unable to say anything more.


"All right! I understand," said Kana.


"We just go to get the scroll, then we'll all get out of here!" sternly Kana, who begins to agree with Frey's decision.


"What do you think, Rin?" ask Kana.


"I-I will follow whatever your plan is," replied Rin, a little stiff.


After hearing that, the three of us felt a little relieved by the smile on our faces.


"All right, let's do it!" said Frey, excited.


Eventually we decided to break the group into two halves, in order to save our remaining time.


Although the monsters we are currently facing are very strong, but we believe that the monsters are no stronger than our determination.
