"We are here, Master!" Rina says to me as I look right towards Theodred who sits on his throne. "What the hell?! Is that Caster's student on a dragon?!" Bruno questions. "I have no idea what's going on..." An injured Cyan says. Everyone's expression had nothing but shock written all over it but Theodred had a menacing smile.
I get off Rina "Wait here!" I say and begin heading toward Theodred but Mr. Daniel stops me. "Kid, they said they don't need our help." Mr. Daniel says to me. "Huh?! Not need our...Help?" I am confused. What does Mr. Daniel mean by that? "That is correct, stay out of this, Rizing has no business here." Jian says to me. He seems to be injured too. Rina transforms back to her normal form. "Oh? A demi-human?" Mr. Daniel looks kind of surprised I guess. "What were you doing with such a lowly creature?" Ilora asks me. "I am trying to rescue her." I reply. "Rescue and her? Don't you have any pride in you? Don't you know that if your seen with a demi-human how much of a backlash you would get?" Ilora looks to be really angry most probably because of me bringing Rina with me. "I don't care, she's a kind person and I will rescue her at any cost. After all, she has the same rights as us." I say. "Tsch! You do whatever you feel is right." Ilora says to me and looks away. I can never get a reading on this girl's mind. "I thought I told you to rest until the medic arrives, jackass." Casey is here but she seems to be sweating. "I think so you need to leave before you collapse." I say. "What...What are you saying?!" Casey is sweating heavily and she's trying to tough it out but she clearly can't withstand that mana. I look around. "Where's Luis?" I ask. "He couldn't get any further from a certain point so we had to leave him behind along with few others." Mr. Daniel says to me.
*SMASH*
"Guh!" Cyan comes crashing towards the fall next to me. "Oh, hi there." I say to Cyan. "HI THERE?! THAT'S YOUR RESPOND TO ME INSTEAD OF HELPING ME?!" Cyan screams. "I thought you would have ran away by now but it seems that me letting you live led to just another huge problem." That girl...Tsch! She's the one I was fighting early on. "What's your name, stubborn boy?" That girl asks me. "It's Henry Marshal." I reply. "My name is Ayla Vilkin and you have my respect for being a brave soldier but that doesn't mean anything if you have come throw your life away again!" She creates that sword of light again. I have to defend myself.
*TING* *TING*
A sword just clashed with an ice shard and a shield. "Your fight is with me!" Cyan says to Ayla as she holds up a shield made up of her water magic in front of me. "You dare not hurt an injured person!" Ilora says to Ayla as she holds a shard made up of ice. Both the girls...Their hairs begin to float as blue aura begins to appear around them. "A sister combination huh? Water and ice...That's not something you see everyday." Ayla says to the girls.
"Wow...They are so...Strong..." Rina says as she sees an injured Cyan and a healthy Ilora clash against Ayla. "Of course they are, one of them is the strongest rookie of our academy and one of them has made to the official top 5 students chart in our academy since she has joined. Even their magic is so familiar that people call them 'The Water Twins'" Mr. Daniel says. "So you can never underestimate their strength because they just keep on getting stronger and stronger." Mr. Daniel continues. "You see kid, these are the type of powers you need to surpass to become a knight." Mr. Daniel says to me.
"And you think I can't surpass them?" I ask Mr. Daniel and smile. "Who knows, you might or you might not. I am just here for whenever you need me." Mr. Daniel says to me. I guess his right. I look at the fight between Cyan and Ilora against Ayla. Ayla seems to be giving a hard time to Cyan and Ilora. I smile because I know they need my help.
"Your going to fight too, kid?" Mr. Daniel asks. "Yes, why do you ask?" I ask Mr. Daniel. "Because those idiots wanted me to stay out of it and I am just keeping their pride. Anyways, if your going to fight take care kid." Mr. Daniel says to me. "It's not like I don't" I say. "Yeah? That's the reason you got a huge hole in your guts, little guy." Mr. Daniel says to me. Is he mocking me? "It isn't a huge, it's just of the size of a sword." I say. Rina chuckles. "What?!" Both of us look at Rina with confused faces. "Nothing, you both are acting like my brother and my father." Rina says to me. "Your brother and father?" I look confused. Rina's face saddens.
"Yes...My brother and father...They were...Very comforting people, very kind, very brave...They weren't perfect in anyways but they were my only family after my mother's death..." Rina says. "Were?" Mr. Daniel asks as our face turns blank. "They no longer...Exist in this world...It's all because I wasn't strong enough...Only if I was strong enough...Those dark elves...They wouldn't have made me their slaves...And made me kill my own family...They took...They took everything from me...EVERYTHING!" Rina's anger explodes, she begins to cry. "Why me? First people looking down on me for me being a demi-human and then losing my family. I hate my body...I hate...I hate being weak...I hate being a demi-human...I just...I just wish...I could kill myself...Somehow...Somehow...Just somehow...I could wish that my life non-existed..." Each and every words that came out from her mouth were filled with sorrow. She had already hated this life. She wished that she non-existed but all she wanted was...A normal life.
Suddenly, Theodred appears behind Rina. "Kill them Rina, just like you killed your family." That man dare to say that. Casey and Luis get scared by the appearance of Theodred right in front of them. "No...I don't want to..." Rina is trying to resist.
"Hey kid, didn't you say you want to fight?" Mr. Daniel asks me. "Yes captain." I reply. "Do you want to fight this monster?" Mr. Daniel asks me. "I was hoping I could get a chance to smack his face at least once." I say. Suddenly, a bolt of thunder hits the ground near me. "What's this rise in mana power...?" The question bolts in the room as another thunderbolt hits the ground between Cyan, Ilora and Ayla. "I don't think your strong enough to fight him kid. So why don't you help the ladies over there?" Mr. Daniel says to me. "I do have debts to settle with that Ayla girl but I also can't let this opportunity go, that guy needs to vanish right before my eyes. After all, only a monster can fight a monster." I say to Mr. Daniel. "Then what are you waiting for, LET'S GO AND GET HIM!!!!" Mr. Daniel says as he charges up his hands with thunderous lightning. His speed is unmatchable and he appears right before Theodred.
"WHAT?! A human who uses spells without enchanting them?!" Theodred looks confused. "Demi-Human protect me!" Theodred says. Rina was about to hit Mr. Daniel but I stop her by kicking her in the guts. "I am sorry Rina but I cannot allow you to stop Mr. Daniel or me from fighting that guy because we want to free you and we will be sure to do that." I say as Rina falls unconscious in my arms. Mr. Daniel hits Theodred.
*SMACK*
Theodred blocks but still gets smashed into the wall.
*SMASH*
Mr. Daniel suddenly gets surrounded by all the dark elves. "YOU DARE TO TAKE SOMEONE'S FAMILY, MAKE SOMEONE A SLAVE AND KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE?!!!! THEN I, CASTER DANIEL WILL SHOW YOU WHAT IT MEANT TO THOSE PEOPLE YOU KILLED WHEN THEY DIED!!!!"
