Elijah Knight POV
As the radical group entered the room, the fight started with us in the upper hand. Then some entered the room and we all know who he is.
He along with the radical group started attacking us, even though they looked like they powered up, we can still defeat them easily.
"I see that the DC officers and the SC, are not that great now that I look at it." He mocked.
"Oh really? From what I can see, your group is the one who's suffering the damage here." Claire retorted.
"So what did you take Charles? You look uglier than before." I mocked.
"Is it something that can also make your genitals grow? Since you also take it jack." I asked looking at jack, and our group all laughed at my remarks.
"Oh I almost forgot the campus beauty who attend the snarlers academy, your beauty is really fitted to the snarlers." I added.
"You peasant! DIE!" The three of them charged at me.
Then they were all trapped in either water sphere, or vines. That was created by Feyrith and princess Tessia.
"Gotcha! Your group is as stupid as ever. To be riled up with small remarks." Feyrith said shaking his head.
"You guys can leave this enemy to me, while you help the other students outside." Feyrith said not even turning his head toward us.
"I will stay with you elf. Since you will need a vanguard anyway." Doradrea said stepping forward.
We all nodded our heads and left the room, through the backdoor to help the other students.
"Let's split up. I along with Kathyln and fable will go straight ahead. Princess Tessia with Theo, Jarrod and Lilia will go to the right side. While you Elijah and Curtis will go left." Claire ordered, and we all nodded.
We then go to the left side of the academy, and engaging a fight against the radical group, with some of the professors helping us.
I then noticed that, the radical group are not students from this school. Or rather they are not students anymore, and they looked foreign to me and too old to be a students.
I and Curtis along with grawder fought against them, thanks to the cores that I got from the dungeon dives we had this past few months.
I made breakthrough and now a Dark-yellow, making me one of the strongest students in the academy.
I and Curtis also noticed that some of our professors sided with the enemy. Making it us a little difficult since we couldn't distinguished who are our allies and not.
We saw professor glory fighting against a group of professor by her own. So we decided to help her.
Quickly conjuring a metal spikes, the professors jumped back avoiding it, but not all of them were lucky since two of them were impaled by my metal spikes, and only one survived.
Grawder leaped, catching the professor who avoided my spikes and killing it instantly.
"Professor glory! How are you?" Curtis asked.
"Oh, it's prince Curtis and Elijah, I'm fine just a few scratch." Professor glory replied.
"Where did they came from anyway? I'm sure we don't have those guys us are students." Professor glory inquired.
"We don't know either, infact we receive an attack in the DC room. Feyrith and Doradrea stay behind to stop them." I responded.
"There you are!" A voice shouted behind me,
Looking back I saw group of battle mage students, who also looked like take the same drugs Charles and the others take.
He's pointing a finger at me, as he make their way toward us, with his four lackeys following behind.
"I'm sorry do I know you?" I asked.
"You peasant! How dare you forget me? After I deal with you I will look for that little girl, and kill her too!" The boy shouted.
"Jamiel Tridant how dare you side with an enemy? You can be charged with treason for your act!" Curtis roared.
Now I remember who he is, he's the guy that Ellie defeated during our first day.
"There's nothing to be afraid of, if no one can catch us anyway. With the power tht our lord bestowed upon us we are stronger against all of you!" Jamiel said laughing.
They then dashed toward us, while we do the same. Jamiel rushed towards me, while his four lackeys fought against professor glory and Curtis.
I conjured a metal shield, blocking Jamiel's fist. I then conjured a metal sword and engaged a close combat against him.
I'm thankful that Arthur taught me how to use a sword during this past months. And since I need to save my mana for later, I fought Jamiel using a sword.
The fight only last for a few minutes before we defeated them. We then helped the other students from the radical group and mana beast they control, and saving them.
"AHHHH, TESTING, TESTING, CAN YOU HEAR ME? IF YOU CAN THAT'S GOOD!" a voice rang across the academy.
"I'M QUITE SURPRISED FOR THE FIGHT THAT YOU DICATHANIAN HAD WITHIN YOU." The voice said.
"NOW, FOR THOSE OF YOU OUT THERE MAKE YOUR WAY WHERE THE BELL TOWER IS, DON'T WORRY MY PETS WON'T BITE YOU ANYMORE, I PROMISE." The voice added.
I looked where Curtis and professor glory is, and they gave me a nod. Curtis then ride grawder's back, the professor doing the same to her bond. Curtis ordered for me to ride on his bond's back, so we can go faster.
I nodded and climbed on grawder's back, and our group then make our way, where the bell tower is.
Arriving at the bell tower. I saw many students shaking in fear, and traumatized for what they witnessed just now.
I looked around and saw almost all of the DC officers and SC were here, except a few missing.
I make my way to where Claire is, followed by Curtis.
"Claire? Where's the other?" Curtis asked.
"I don't but they should be here, let's wait for a minute." Claire replied.
A few minutes later princess Tessia, along with her group also arrived. They had a few scratches, but there's nothing serious.
The door of the bell tower were pushed open, and people came out. Leading them are six person who had horns in their head.
One look at them, I already know we will not stand a chance against them. The person who looked like their leader, stepped forward holding a bag behind him.
The students started cursing him, and his group, while they looked at them amused. The leader then throw the bag he was holding, revealing a head.
Many students and professors vomited at the sight but I didn't, I saw many things like this being an adventurer. I looked at the head then I recognized who it belongs to.
"DORADREA!" Theo shouted behind me, he was about to charged forward but I stopped him.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!" Theo shouted as he struggled removing the earthen shackles around him.
"Theo we can't fight against them, they are too strong for us to handle. Even if all of us teamed up against one of them, we wouldn't stand a chance." I explained looking at him.
"He's right Theo, we can't fight them. We will listen first what they are up to." Claire ordered.
"If there's no other way, we will fight them if we can buy a time for the other students to escape." I added.
"He's right. You should listen to him." Said a voice behind me.
I quickly jumped back, while my comrades prepared their weapons.
"Oh, it looks like I startled you, I'm sorry about that. But you aren't needed here so you're coming with me." He announced.
Before I and the others can even fight back, he moved behind me, smacking the back of my head, causing me to lose my concious.
Claire Bladeheart POV.
As I saw the horned man lift Elijah. I along the others couldn't do anything but bite our lips.
We can't do anything in the face of power. We can't do anything as we saw our friend, being taken by our enemy.
"Dara, my task here is finished, I'm leaving you and the others to finish your mission." The one who take Elijah said as he left.
The woman named as Dara, bowed her head, as she and the others watched their leader left.
She then turned her head toward us, and grinned hearing the curses the students are shouting.
"Greetings as you all heard, my name is Dara. We came from far away land, and we are here to save all of you." Dara introduced herself.
"Now, I think we should start our finale! You can come out now!" Dara shouted, and people rushed out from the door they exited earlier.
The radical group came out from the door, and some of them are pulling a students behind. They were either elf or dwarf, all of them are covered by their bloods.
As the last two came out, our eyes widen as we saw who they are pulling.
"Hey isn't that the DC officers?" Jarrod said pointing at the two.
They face were covered by blood but with their ears and hair. We know who they are.
"Feyrith! Lucas!" Princess Tessia shouted, she wanted to save them, but we stopped her.
"Now, many of you are either angry at us or confused why we are here. But as I said earlier, we are here to save all of you. And prepare all of you so when our lord arrived and conquered this place. All of you are already prepared to worship him like us." She said as she conjured a metal throne for her and the others to sit.
"All of you who are considered as elites in this continent, are nothing but a trash to where we came from." She spat, as she looked at us disgusted.
"I want all of you to meet some of our supporters from this land." She announced.
And a group of hooded figure stepped forward, then removed it's hoods revealing Clive, Charles, jack, and Charlotte.
Clive scoffed as he looked at us, as if thinking we are bugs, and nothing in front of him. The SC are shocked to see one of them betrayed us, while the students cursed him and and the other three.
"You guys go and deal with this annoying bugs for us." Dara ordered, as she and the others sat lazily.
The four of them bowed, as they and the other charged at us. We let Theo go since he's the one that holding back a lot.
Theo charged toward them, and we followed behind him. Princess Tessia and I, fought against Clive, while the others either fought the three, or the mana beast and other radical group members.
The academy was in chaos, as our forces clashed. They are killing our students without mercy, so we do the same to them.
Clive is using his bow as he shoot arrows toward us. And using his wind magic to pushed away anyone who come near him.
Princess Tessia used her beast will that she said she got from Arthur. Her aura changed and hair become green and her skin become grey.
I know with this I'm not needed anymore, so I decided to help those who are being held by them.
I make my way where Lucas and Feyrith were tied, followed by the other battle mage students.
I untied them, and I ordered the students to take them where the emitters are.
During this battle, the five horned bastards and their personal lackeys. Looked at us amused, and they looked like betting who will win.
I saw princess Tessia stabbed Clive with his vine in his heart. While Theo and the others killed the other three, the enemy left are the mana beast, and and a few radical members.
As we finished killing them, I surveyed the battlefield, and saw one third of what here earlier, died during this battle.
The five bastard clapped their hands, as we finished killing the last one. They looked at us amused, as if what we did earlier was an entertainment for them.
"Impressive, the casualties you suffered are smaller than I thought." Dara said clapping her hand.
"It seems like it's now your turn. You are free to do anything you want to them." Dara said lazily raising her hand.
Another hooded figure stepped out, and removed it's hoods, revealing a person who looked like a thug.
"Geist..." Professor glory said under her breath, looking at the man.
"It's good to be back!" The man named Geist announced.
"And it looks like nothing change here, it was still full of cute girls. I will have fun with all of you later, especially with two princesses being here." Geist said looking at us with lust in his eyes.
We are almost depleted, from our fights earlier. And looking at him, his stronger than the one we fought earlier.
We're about to lose hope, when suddenly the barrier around the academy was broken. And a black dragon and five flying figure descended.
