Dray stood face to face with the Cloaked figure, as he held Princess Keia hostage.
"Wind zone!! Lets see you get pass me now." Dray stated as he changed his fighting stance.
"You asked for this kid, dragon rush!!" the mana around the cloaked figure became dense as it surrounded his body ripping the cloak to reveal a boy look to be about 2 years older than Dray with white hair.
The boy charged at Dray with astounding speed as the mana around his hand took the form of a dragon claw.
Dray was able to deflect the boys slashes each time thanks to the wind zone spell he used.
"Not bad kid, but you will have to move quicker than that."
The boy's speed shot up as breaks through Drays defense, just then a earth wall formed taking the grunt of the attack.
"What are you guys still doing here I thought you went with the others." Dray asked Rio and Myra.
"We didn't want to leave you to yourself, but we know if we tried to get involved, we would just be get in your way." Rio answered.
"Now is not the time for talking." The boy says as he forms an big orb of energy in his hand.
He threw it in Dray's direction, but he dodges it.
"Wait!!"
Dray realized the orb was on target to hit some of the spectators still in the stadium stands.
The orb exploded probably injuring and killing the people near it.
"How could you, do that!!" Dray shouted as he begins to fill with rage.
"If you don't focus on our fight that will be the fate of more of them." The unknown boy said.
"Enhance magic full armor!!"
Dray's full body became lined with mana like Armour that would be worn by a knight.
The two clashed relentlessly in the middle of the arena not letting up the tremendous intensity.
The unknown boy breaks through Dray's defense as grabs and throws him across the arena.
"Dragon Breath!!"
"That is enough Lynx, we have got what we have come here for!!" A deep and spine tingling voice uttered.
As masked man with red flowing hair came floating to the ground of the arena.
"Understood Master Zephyr." Lynx said as kneeled to the man.
"Valaine will be returning shortly she had a slight delay, with three other kids, You can release the princess now she is of no use to us at the moment." The man ordered.
{The open Hall}
"What should we do with her?" Rein asked as the three examined the frozen woman.
"We could just wait for the other knights to find a way to get into the stadium, will your spell be able to last that long Claire?" Lot Inquired.
"It should be able to last for a next 39 minutes, but it's whether or not the knights will make it by then."
"Well we should ready ourselves incase but for now lets check on the Queen."
The three wandered over to the Queen's side.
"Queen Daithine Yearl, how are you do you have any severe injuries." Rein asked.
"Just some cuts and bruises I should be fine; I thank you three for protecting me."
"That is what any loyal citizen would do in that situation; I am always happy to help the royal family. "Claire beamed.
"Knowing your father is a top ranking noble who serves the Royal family religiously, I would not expect less from his daughter."
"Your Father is a high ranking noble how come you never told me that, did you know about this Lot?" Rein playfully argued.
"I don't know why you are looking at me for." Lot answered as he yawned.
"A girl has to have her secrets." Claire gloated.
As the three went back and forth, the Queen smiled as she sat quietly.
Smoke suddenly started to fill the room visibility became nonexistent.
"Thanks for the fun kids, but my job here is done hope we meet next time." Valaine says in the thick smoke.
Claire casted a wind spell filtering the smoke out of the hall as they look at the ice which encapsulated Valaine, it had been melted freeing her.
"How did she melt the ice." Claire Agonized
"You can think about that later, we should follow her, I think she's heading for the arena." Lot said
{Back in the arena}
Wind blades hurdled towards the man but he deflected them with one wave of his hand, In a sudden burst of speed Dray charged the man who easily catches his fist.
"Kid you are light years away from putting up a challenge against me so don't waste my time."
The Man puts his palm on Dray's stomach causing him to suddenly fall down.
"Sorry I took so long Master Zephyr." Valaine says as she makes her way into the arena.
"You have done the job I gave, you have no reason to apologize." The man answered.
Claire, Lot and Rein raced through the stadium to the arena, there they saw Myra and Rio on the ground in fear as Dray lied on the ground unconscious behind a masked man.
"This was the ORDER OF CIPHERS first act of the revolution of the Yearl Kingdom." The man shouted.
In that moment no one moved a muscle.
