Chapter 30 - End Of Battle

They all reached out to Feran. They tried running and diving into him but they were too far. As Feran turned around a huge hammer which was held by the rogue knight, he struck his hammer and it punctured Feran in the stomach, sending him flying through the air. As Feran received the hit, his pupils turned upwards as blood gushed from his mouth and his chest plate was destroyed. Even his white shirt which was under the armor was torn as one could see the print of the hammer attack. Feran's body twisted in the air as he fell on the fall. He had lost consciousness. The immovable Feran was down. It was an unbelievable sight to behold. Xavier and Wayne looked in shock as their eyes widen, they were in despair. Xavier fell down on the floor as his hands and knees shook violently.

" H-how?" Xavier was in sudden despair.

Then picturing the sight again, Xavier gritted his teeth and clenched his fist. He had changed. He was angrier than ever as his face turned into hatred. Xavier bit his lips until blood ran down his chin. His whole body shook in anger as his mana circled around his body. It was more than enough mana for his body to handle but he didn't care. His big eyes showered in darkness as his eyebrows furrowed. He kept channeling mana continuously. A transparent aura then appeared around his body. He was projecting mana on his body without releasing it to gain stronger physical strength, it was dangerous enough to kill him.

As the rogue knight stood there watching Xavier, Xavier ha disappeared in thin air. As Xavier appeared again he slashed the rogue knight through a gap in his armor with his daggers. As Xavier powered up, electricity flashed against his body continuously. It was the spell called lightning cloak. Back then Xavier couldn't do the spell as it would take much mana but this time he didn't care less about himself. He was inraged. As the enemy was paralyzed, Xavier kept spamming electric thunderbolts shocking the enemy and damaging himself. The rogue knight couldn't even move as the electricity stunned him.

With every electro attack, Xavier inflicted, the Harbinger of Sudden Death healed each time. Xavier noticed that sacrificing himself to that level wasn't enough. Xavier then channeled his mana making a water spell, the spell grew in size as the water spun around. It was a water vortex. And the moment they were both wet, Xavier fired the spell Raiden's strike. As the spell hit the water, it electrocuted both Xavier and the undead. Xavier's whole body shook over and over again. As he screamed in pain, he felt a burning feeling in his body.

Wayne then fired an earth pillar at Xavier which separated him from the electricity. As Xavier fell into a random tree, he still remained his consciousness as he watched Wayne closing in on the enemy. As Wayne raised his staff, earth spikes pierced through the undead sending it in the air. The undead then broke the earth spikes which pierced through his stomach with his sword. As the spikes broke, the undead or rogue knight fell down from the air and regenerated. It seemed that regenerating consumed a lot of stamina. The Rogue knight then jumped in the air and slammed the huge hammer at the ground by Wayne. Wayne then jumped back and the moment he did, the rogue knight slashed its sword at Wayne's head. As Wayne ducked, he was almost a hair strand away from getting his head sliced off.

Wayne then retreated back also firing multiple earth spikes. As Wayne and the undead clashed, Xavier noticed Feran had gone missing.

***

As Wayne fired a huge earth spike taking a lot of his mana, the undead shattered into pieces then jumped in the air with his hammer— it was too late for Wayne to dodge. At least that's what one would think, the enemy turned to ice mid-air. Looking like he made his way here from hell. Feran then slashed off the enemy's left hand where it held its hammer. And the moment he did, it broke out from the ice.

" Freeze its body parts before it regenerates!" Wayne shouted.

Xavier turned to one of his daggers. He then picked it up and threw it with great accuracy. As the dagger traveled, it hit the enemy. Feran then noticed the dagger immediately then froze the enemy once again to solid ice. As He tried slashing off the head, the helmet made his sword bounce back. Feran tried over and over but couldn't slice off its head. He then slashed off one of its legs before the ice broke once again. Before Feran could freeze it, the undead hit him with its elbow sending Feran flying into Wayne.

" Damn it! It will just....."

" I-I don't think s-so!" Xavier interrupted.

Xavier had dragged his body across the ground to the undead when Feran froze it. Xavier froze its leg. Since Xavier couldn't move away from the danger, Wayne carried him away with an earth pillar once again. As Xavier landed in safety, he felt something wrong with his body. Since he had used two elements one after the next, he had coughed up blood and agonized in pain. He damaged his mana core so badly that leakage had occurred. Xavier couldn't even breathe as he held his chest. As much as he wanted to scream in pain he couldn't for he couldn't even talk. Xavier's whole body left him as he couldn't move an inch. His body felt heavy. Xavier kept coughing out blood as his mana leaked out.

***

As Feran cut down another leg and froze it, he limited it from moving. Then someone jumped from over the city gates and landed. It was a beautiful big chest woman who had long golden blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes like a diamond, and pink lips. Her hips were wide and her nose was perfectly shaped. In fact, everything about her was perfect as she wore a long white dress. It was Vivian.

She then illuminated a blinding light in front of the undead. It was a holy light used to extinguish an undead. Most healers like herself were followers of God who could cast off all evil like the undead and so forth. The blinding light got bigger and bigger to the point where even if you covered your eyes you would still see it.

And as the light disappeared, the undead or rogue knight known as the Harbinger Of Sudden death had been deduced to its original form as a skeleton. Vivian then rushed to Xavier's side after finishing off the enemy. She charged up and healed Xavier's mana core, she didn't heal it but she stopped the leakage as it would heal overtime on its own. She poured every ounce of her existence healing, Xavier. As his pain subsided, she felt it but that didn't stop her. As she screamed in pain she continued healing and healing until Xavier was back to normal. She then dropped down on the floor panting.

" Finally, it's done." Feran wiped the sweat from his face as he held his stomach." I'm going to question them."

Feran noticed someone playing dead so he drew his sword and pointed it at the person's neck.

" Tell me, boy, who are your friends?" Feran then drew his sword closer to his neck.

The little boy cried as he shook," The two city gate guards, Fen and you'll find the rest of them hiding in the slums."

Feran smiled as he arrested the boy." Looks like we really are done."
