Chapter 73 - Searching a noble, Part 3

Me and with roger have been running into forests to search for that nobleman who got possessed by a Spiwolf, a werewolf who can possess the body of people and we have found him in a part of the forest, thanks to the eagles I have been summoned to search that noble which it was a success because we have found the noble, laying on the grass and around him are big piles of innocent animals killed and a few people who were venturing there just to see what killed those animals.

Roger, after he saw those dead animals, was about to throw up, but this big guy refrains from doing this thing, but I, on the other hand, vomit breakfast for almost two minutes, then I look angrily at that nobleman who begins to get up and shout at him.

"What have you done?!"

"I-I... I haven't done it!" says the nobleman scared when he gets up and saw that huge piles of dead animals around him. "I... I don't know, you peasant!"

"You have done it!" says Roger to that nobleman.

"S... Shut up, your garbage! I didn't do this!"

Then, Roger walks slowly to that nobleman and he looks angry at him, then he punched that nobleman in the face so hard, that I could feel a nose breaking and a tooth falling from his mouth. I wanted to go there and try to stop him, but then, Roger he puts the nobleman's whole body onto Roger's shoulder and goes to him back to the camp where Fiona and the rest of the warriors are there and they are about to leave. But even when the three of us left that area, I could feel something cold coming out of that nobleman's body and passing me, that spirit must have left Fernando's body, and now he's going to possess other people and use them as weapons. I think Roger had that feeling that I had too because he stops walking, turns to the direction where those piles of animals killed by that spirit are, and together with me, we look shocked at how a man with his missing arms rises, and that man's arms magically regenerate.

Roger throws that nobleman aside, pulls the sword from the tea behind him, and throws himself at that man who was resurrected by the spirit of that Spiwoolf. That resurrected man, just when he was about to say something, Roger cut his skull in half. That living corpse falls to the ground, then we both notice how the body begins to turn into dust and disappear. Roger, just as he was about to put his sword back in the tea, hears something and prepares for another attack. It seems that the spirit has begun to possess another corpse, but this time a blue wolf, who runs on his four paws to Roger and ready to bite him. But Roger, he throws the sword as if it were a lance to that wolf, and this sword sticks itself in the mouth of the wolf, which kills him immediately and makes him turn into dirt, even when he was at Roger's feet. he has his sword again and is preparing for another attack because of that Spiwoolf. However, I wonder, didn't Fiona say that Spiwoolf can only attack at night, and by day this Spiwoolf attacks? Very strange situation. I prepare my wand and then I look around me to see if the Spiwoolf will try to do a surprise attack on me.

But the surprise attack doesn't happen to me and to Roger, who thankfully have reacted quickly and cut the head of that bear who almost jumped on him. The body of that bear has fallen down and then I had an idea and throw a "Fireball" spell into some corpses. Roger took a quick look at me and asked me.

"What are you doing?"

"If we burn the corpses the Spiwolf will have nothing to use to attack us!" I say to Roger who then jumped on the next dead animal, a deer to be precise, who comes to him and decapitates him with one single swing.

I throw a few "Fireball" spells into corpses who are laying around us and in just a matter of minutes, the corpses have been burned and decapitated by Roger with his sword. The spirit doesn't have many bodies to use to attack us, but then something has hit me: "What if he will try and posses us?". Then I shout to Roger.

"We have to go!"

"What!? Why?" asked Roger when he cut the last corpse who was about to hit him, but then right when I was to respond to him the reason why we have to run, Roger has started to scream in the sky and look in need of desperate help at me. "J-Judah! Heeeeelp!" says Roger with his last words while he is possessed by that spirit monster.

Right away, I'll check as fast as I can to see if I can find a spell that can make that Spiwolf disappear. I give the pages as fast as I can, but unfortunately, I can't find such a spell that can help me, but the moment I almost hit the last page of that spellbook, that monster that owns my friend jumps up to me and puts me down, and this monster who owns Roger holds me tight to the ground and tries to bite my face. , but I manage to hold it as best I can, and in a few short moments, I manage to hold the wand in the fork of Roger's chest and decide to say out loud the spell "Oblivion" and make that monster fly a few meters into the sky. Immediately, after a few moments, I notice that that monster lands in a tree, and that's when I discovered the weakness of that monster and how it can attack us during the day.

The reason this monster can attack us is that the forest we are in is disused, studded with trees that are at least twenty meters long and that stop the sun's rays. This monster, while he's on one of the tops of that tree, starts screaming from all of Roger's lungs, and then I can hardly see how a little smoke starts coming out of Roger's body. Immediately, that monster hides from those rays of the sun jumping from that tree towards me, and I activate as fast as I can the spell "Shielding" a spell that all beginner magicians have, and that monster hits the sphere that protects me from any attack and stays glued to that shield for a few seconds and then I launch again the "Oblivion" spell, which makes Roger fly in a few trees and knock them down because some of those trees are looking very old, and such trees can be knocked down very easily even an axe blow. Roger's body stops in a tree, and the area where he has stopped is one that has a crack to let the sun's rays land on the dry forest land. Roger starts screaming with all his might but not in pain, that howl is probably that monster trying not to die. He quickly leads me to Roger to see if he's still alive, but just when I'm about to get there, I notice Roger fainting and I see some smoke coming out of this body, which I think is most likely the smoke of that Spiwolf coming out of his body.

I arrive closer to Roger's body and then I look at him and saw some wounds on the faces and his back, so I quickly used the "Healing" spell on him as fast as I can because I do not want to make this man die in my hands. In just a matter of seconds, the wounds of roger have started to close and made him new and without any bones being broken. Then, I screamed at Roger to make him wake up and applied a few slaps on his checks to try and wake him as people use in some novels about survival I have read back in my Orphanage.

"Roger!" I screamed at him and slap his face in hope that he will wake up. "Wake up!... Wake up, Roger!"

Roger did not respond to my calls in a matter of seconds, and I was about to cry. But then, I Roger have started to slowly open his eyes and I could see he is fine and not dead. Then I look at him and saw that he is smiling at me and then he says.

"You did a terrific work, wizard."

After he said that, I thanked him, then I helped him get up from this tree he landed and both of us are walking somewhere to rest before we will be about to deliver that nobleman to our camp where Fiona is waiting for us. When we were walking to that noble body, we sa1w that this noble is about to get on his feet, but, Roger immediately jumped on him, and then he says loudly at me.

"Give the rope!"

Then, I take from my backpack, that I almost forgot I had it, the rope and throw it to Roger, who is successfully caught with one hand and start to tie the nobleman as fast as he can because Roge is afraid of the fact that this nobleman could do a wrong move and get him killed or try to run away from here. After when Roger has finished tied the nobleman's arms and legs he sits on a tree and then he says to me while he is catching his breaths.

"We will rest here for a few moments, and then we will go back to the camp with this rich boy... Understand?"

"Y-Yes," I respond to Roger and then I sit close to him.
