Looking at the boy, without any hesitation, the Bishop directed the sword with a blade down to the bottom of his heart ..
~ Klang
But what everyone was waiting for did not happen. Touching the body, the sword could not continue on its way.
Everyone heard the sound not of the blade entering the flesh, but of the blow of the sword against steel.
~ WHAT? "There were shouts from the crowd"
- How, how is this possible? "Said the priest Daario with unbelief"
- I do not understand. ~ The bishop dropped his sword. - In my hands was a sword endowed with the power of saints, then why ...
While everyone was shocked by what had happened, they did not notice the strange phenomenon that began to appear in heaven.
~ Babah.
Blue lightning struck the statue of the saint and the statue shattered into small pieces.
Black clouds formed over the city and heavy rain began.
~ Aahhh "Someone cried out from the crowd and everyone started to run away to where.
Residents of the city began to take refuge in their homes or in the church.
"Bishop Orne, tell me what are we going to do?" Should we run to church or stay?
The old man, wet from heavy rain, looked at the priests and said with a serious voice:
- Leave now. Close the church, activate the protective formation.
The priests still did not leave, the girl who brought the sword asked: - But what about you, bishop?
Glancing at the sky, the bishop with a hint of suspicion said:
"Something terrible is coming, I will stay here." I am the only one in this city who can stop this, so go without me!
Finally, having decided, the priests ran to the church.
After a couple of minutes, a small dome of light formed around the church, and a protective formation was activated.
Some time passed, in the main square of the city there was absolute silence.
All that was heard was the sound of dripping rain and thunder, which thundered without ceasing inside the black clouds.
The bishop looked at the unconscious boy.
Behind Marcus, a portal appeared that pulled the boy in.
"..." The bishop had nothing to say, but he was wary.
- hmm? "The bishop suddenly frowned"
~ Babah.
A huge lightning struck the place where the boy was lying.
The impact was so strong that after dispersing the dust, a crater of 3 meters in size formed in that place.
A small black creature jumped out of the funnel; its size was no more than 20 centimeters.
~ Babah.
Several lightning bolts hit this small creature in a row, and something incredible began to happen.
The more and more lightning struck this creature, the more enormous it became. With the body of this monster, various metamorphoses began to occur.
Finally, after a series of several blows, everything stopped.
Before Bishop Orne appeared a huge four-meter monster.
It was completely black, a huge pair of coal-black wings protruded from behind him.
This creature had an elongated neck and animal head resembling a wolf.
Three long horns protruded from his head.
In appearance, the monster was strong and massive with well-developed muscles.
The black figure stood on two clawed legs. This creature had long, razor-sharp claws on the fingers of its hands.
The monster looked at the Bishop and grinned.
A huge mouth, with two rows of sharp teeth and a long reddish spiky tongue.
- Who are you? "Asked the bishop a question"
The strange creature did not respond and only moved.
Pushing off the ground with such force that the tile on which it stood shattered.
The monster made a jerk right at the Bishop.
The black figure moved extremely fast, because the bishop did not immediately react.
Although Orne looked like an old man, a large amount of vitality radiated from his body.
The old man jumped out.
And yet, it hooked him with its claws.
Four deep bloody wounds appeared on the bishop's chest.
~ Ahh - the infection! "Orne let out a groan of pain."
"The flame of a saint."
The bishop's sword caught fire in white flame.
Orne tried to counterattack.
But the unknown disappeared from sight.
When the old man turned around, he blocked the creature's blow with his sword.
The black figure jumped back from the Bishop.
She spread her coal-black wings and soared up.
High in the sky, the monster opened its palm, from which came a dark fog.
The monster created five foggy copies.
Pointing a finger at the bishop, the spears swiftly flew in his direction, trying to pierce him through.
- Hm.
With a grunt, Bishop Orne performed a horizontal blow with his sword in the direction of the spears flying at him.
White flame flew from the sword and collided with spears.
The spears did not slow their pace for a second. Realizing that the flame did not work, the Bishop had to dodge them.
~ Ahh.
Dodging four copies, the fifth nevertheless hit the bishop in the right shoulder and pierced him through.
The bishop fell to his knees.
The creature did not calm down, it created five more of these copies and again threw them at the old man.
- A barrier of light. ~ said Orne.
A translucent barrier appeared in front of him, which blocked the spears and collapsed.
At that moment, the black figure faced the bishop.
~ Bach
A direct blow to the stomach and the old man flew off, hitting his back against a tree.
Gathering with the remaining strength, the head of the church rose. He picked up a sword lying nearby and prepared to attack.
"You are ... too ... weak ... man." ~ The creature spoke in a mysterious voice.
~ Klang Klang.
The monster hit with its claws, but both blows were blocked by the sword.
Then a large spear appeared in the creature's hand.
- Khrght.
Having made a lunge, the spear entered the chest of the old man.
Of the last forces, the Bishop fought, but the spear penetrated deeper with every split second.
~ Kha.
A clot of black blood flew from Orn's mouth.
Having pulled out a spear, the monster kicked the old man. He fell to the ground and no longer moved.
Looking at the dead body, the unknown soared into the sky and disappeared behind the black clouds ...
_ _ _
Continent Hua.
Mount Faral.
At this moment, a small portal was opened deep in the forest, from where the boy's body flew out.
