Chapter 23 - Academy Defence II

About 15 cloaked individuals currently surround us and are exerting their pressure on us, so most students are scared.

But with the help of Blaze, I regained my composure and began talking with my teammates and making sure that they didn't run as some would try and run.

"What should we do?" A student asked. The teacher frowned at these words but he himself didn't know what to do.

Currently, the teacher was analyzing the attackers, and he noticed that most of them are C-Rank and only three are B-Rank, but it was still dangerous.

Unlike other teachers, he had experience fighting Demonic Worshipers and knew that if all else failed they had pills that increased their strength, with the cost of losing their minds, if he encountered that here he would probably die before the students could escape.

What nobody noticed was that one of the students had a hidden glint in his eyes not only that he seem too calm like he already knew this was going to happen, but nobody noticed in this chaotic situation.

Oscar and Blaze were currently planning how to survive but Oscar didn't like Blaze's plan.

"What the fuck did you just say?" Oscar was livid and started shouting at Blaze for his plan.

"I know I myself don't like the plan, but we have to we can't save anybody with our weak power, we can only escape and get stronger so this doesn't happen anymore. So run when you have the chance, run and survive, other people will do the same just look around you they are also thinking of ways to escape, we can't be heroes. So stop this pointless argument and survive god damn it." I knew what he said was correct and that I should listen to him but, it seemed wrong to run away when if you tried a bit more you'd save one more person, it felt like I was betraying my class and the teacher, but he was correct I don't owe them anything and I should survive to get stronger and kill these bastards.

We were currently in a standoff, The attackers didn't attack us because both were waiting for backup, or at least I hoped it was because of that, but after some time knew that backup probably wouldn't show up. After a bit more waiting it seemed the attackers got a command and started charging toward us at an alarming rate.

"Defend!!" That was the only thing we heard before pure carnage began.

When one of the attackers got close to my teammates, I tried to help them, but I, was just hit off like I was a feather and saw Ethan Reese, the guy I just met and bonded get his head chopped off, then and only then did I finally understand what situation I was in.

I wanted to run, but my legs were limp and didn't move, Blaze was screaming I'm my ears to get up, but I was too afraid, soon my legs started moving, but then I realized that I couldn't move my body.

"Don't stress you didn't move. So I moved for you, remember, we're a team, so I can't let you die," I realized that I was in so much danger, if Blaze hadn't moved for me a sword would have probably pierced me.

While everybody was fighting and screaming, I noticed a student killing other students, and Blaze went there to kill him as he already knew that he was part of them and would kill us if we talked, getting out the sword he went over and got behind him and then stabbed straight to the head, he died instantly but it only got me to mentally vomit, while Blaze was calmly standing there as if he did it countless of times. I wanted to ask him about it but this wasn't the place.

Looking around I spotted a place where we could escape unnoticed, the place was quite dangerous as it was the place where the teacher was fighting with 3 B-Ranks, one of them seemed to be very hurt and almost dead, but before the teacher Martin could finish him, he was stabbed at the leg.

"We're so fucking dead how had nobody stumbled upon us," Blaze was shouting in fury as he was about to lose his second chance to live, he was afraid of dying and didn't want to experience anything like that. So he began running, but before he could escape a dagger flew by his cheek.

"Where do you think you're going, boy?" A bleeding and badly hurt hooded individual spoke to him.

"Why would you pick a fight when you're barely alive?" Blaze asked this to distract him while he was analyzing him and coming up with a plan. Blaze wasn't so good with a sword as he always trained with Oscar. He knew that he was at a disadvantage and he also knew that he couldn't give the body back to Oscar, as he would only fall to the ground and vomit due to what he witnessed.

"Shouldn't you be happy I mean it's now a fair fight, I'm basically F-Rank with these injuries" Blaze didn't believe it one bit, he knew that he was in a trap and the individual was currently toying with him, but he had no choice but to go along with him.

"We'll I would be happier if you didn't notice, why couldn't you get the other guy?" Blaze just used an advanced technique called LYING as he knew that this person's goal was to prevent anyone from escaping, and now that he told him that there was another guy, he would send one of the individuals to check or to start retreating.

"I guess you're unlucky kid," He started sprinting at us at an unbelievable pace. I just closed my eyes and accepted the fate that I would be surviving.

He was currently in a stabbing motion and the injuries he had didn't help, he would probably reach me soon. The plan was simply to fall to the ground and shoot at his balls, sadly, but luckily for him, it was just a rubber bullet, still hurt, but wouldn't injure him much.

I knew that it was an fucked up move but it was for survival.

Everything went as planned and due to my timing being almost perfect, he was slower to notice than he should been. When I shot him in the balls, he screamed like he was in hell.

"OOF, god witnessing that hurts me physically"

"DAMN YOU!!!! NO MORE PLAYING! DIE!!!!" He instantly tried kicking me in the face, but it didn't hit, as there was a mana shield around me, but it wasn't mine.

"Took them long enough, now we should help the injured" As I said, I decided to run back for and offer to help the injured.

"Retreat!!" the cloaked individuals started retreating but it was too late as they started falling like flies.

"And that's called plot armor," I mumbled to myself as I looked at the corpses of my fellow students and whoever those guys were, Oscar was out cold, he went into shock, but it was understandable, he did just experienced the death and 'killed' a fellow student.

After that, I went to help treat the injured, although I wasn't good at it it was still better than nothing, and it was good practice as I knew I'd need this in the future.

I of course wasn't treating alone I was more of an assistant who treated light injuries while the rescuers did the hard work with more advanced injuries.

Some injured died, but some lucky ones lived if only we had more doctors...

"So what is next?" I looked at the bagged dead bodies in front of me.
