Without thinking twice, Fege used ice spells that blocked the robber's movement, she could hear his curses and watched as he began to slowly walk towards her, holding the dagger in front of him. Grinning at his actions, the light elf took out her saber and began to attack the robber standing in front of her.
In another part of the caravan, Oteu noticed that the caravan stood up, looking around the place where they stood and realizing that this place was well suited for an ambush, he began to prepare for battle, he caught strange glances of the dark elf who remained next to him.
- Get ready for the fight, stop staring at me. - Oteu ordered irritably, despite the stufon.
He hoped that this dark elf would not try to demonstrate his manners in such a situation when, according to Oteu, they would be attacked in the next few minutes.
- Okay, Oteu tell me what to do. - The dark elf turned to Oteu in a puzzled manner.
The Dark elf as a support mage did not have the ability to attack the enemy, in rare cases he could restrain them, but no more.
- Prepare your spells that give me mobility and hearing enhancement and stay behind my back. - Oteu turned sternly, preparing his spells.
Oteu, as a magician and a person, could not use strong spells of the earth for the reasons that the goddess of this element had left. Unlike Trey, this magic did not leave the world, but it became weaker and therefore many magicians of the earth sank into poverty.
- Ready, tell me how to activate. - Naur said in a serious voice, looking around.
For Naur, this was not the first task, but the feeling of danger made his thoughts jump and feel how the movement of time began to decrease. Hearing the dark elf's words, Oteu nodded, he also finished preparing for the battle.
Oteu hoped that the merchants would not start running around the caravan in fear and getting in the way, he was not worried about the stufons at the beginning of the caravan there were two experienced magicians next to them, but he was worried about the half-elf and the girls.
In the distance, two figures could be seen, one was short and thin and the other was tall, it was Roald and Pelori who watched the robbers attack the caravan, both had smirks on their faces, they saw it so often that they no longer remembered the faces of those who were their victims.
They expected to see the head of the guard, at the beginning of the caravan they saw a dark elf and a light elf who fought against the robbers, they saw that these two magicians were experienced both in mid-range combat and in close combat, a couple of robbers' corpses were visible that were lying with missing body parts, someone had missing hands, someone and hands and the legs, but the two elves did not remain unharmed, the light elf could see cuts on her clothes and hands, while the dark elf tried to regain his breath, but everything was not very good for him either.
- Where is the head of security? - Thoughtfully inspecting the carriages, Roald said.
Who guarded the caravan and had the position of head of security, they were not simple magicians and were quite dangerous. Roald and Pelori waited for the head of the guard to show up to strike him and prevent the possibility that he would interfere with their fun.
- Maybe he or she got scared and ran away? - Pelori said with boredom in his voice.
Glancing at Rual, in whose eyes was read the desire to break into the caravan and sow death to everything that his weapons could reach.
- I doubt if the head of security is experienced, he sees that not particularly strong opponents are attacking, so he does not interfere. - Said Roald thoughtfully looking around the caravan.
And he was right, Oteu carefully examined the attackers who were not particularly strong, even the stufons of the initial courses could cope with such. And this could mean only one thing, or the robbers were weak that they decided to try their luck with the caravan and test their strength, or the main force of the robbers had not yet entered the battle.
And he felt that the correct answer would be the second guess and gripping the two-handed axe tightly. He saw how some merchants were killed at the beginning of the caravan and their bodies were lying next to the carriages in which they were traveling. He believed in those who were responsible for the beginning of the caravan, but was afraid for the middle because he did not feel the magic from there.
He understood that the stufons and the servant could run away after seeing the scene of battles where people lost not only their limbs but also their lives. After a while, the guards of the caravan gradually began to push the robbers closer to the forest. And when they were a few steps away from the forest, more robbers ran out of the forest and attacked the guards, the latter were able to feel that they were stronger than those with whom they had fought before. But most of all they were scared that the new robbers had a good synergy between each other, they did not shout and did not rush alone, they acted like well-trained warriors who had experience in battles against magicians and creating ambushes.
- He never showed up, let's go Pelori and show that he can't escape the battle. - Roald spoke to the thin man standing next to him.
After hearing what Roald told him, he began to stretch his shoulders and slowly follow the Merman towards the caravan. The gang members, seeing them, began to attack the caravan guards even more fiercely, pushing them back to the carriages.
Pelori was choosing which of the guards to eliminate, no one made him want to fight, so he decided to stay with Roald, who was slowly walking towards the middle of the caravan.
Keirin, who was sitting in the carriage, began to hear the sounds of steel hitting steel on her beautiful face, it was clear that she frowned. Opening her eyes, she saw Trey, who was also absorbed in the knowledge of his magic, looking at the girl, she saw that she also opened her eyes and began to listen to the sounds coming from the street, they could notice that the carriage was standing still. And this meant that the caravan was most likely attacked by someone.
- Get ready to fight Fel. - Keirin turned to the girl.
Hearing Keirin's voice, the girl shuddered, immersed in an attempt to hear what was happening on the street. Shifting his gaze to the light elf who had a serious expression on her face.
- Was the caravan attacked? - Fel said in surprise, looking at Trey.
The half-elf was still sitting and did not pay attention to what was happening in the area, his face was calm and relaxed.
- Most likely yes, so prepare your spells and let's go outside. - Said Keirin taking out a sword from the storage.
Touching it, it was noticeable how ice began to pass along the tip of the sword and the blade began to smoke slightly, as if it was waking up from its dream. Surprised by Keirin's behavior, the girl took out her sword and began to endow it with magic, awakening small mana stones in the sword. It was noticeable how the wind began to appear around the steel and enveloping it completely.
Watching the girl, Keirin was glad that Fel did not panic and did not try to hide in a corner. Deciding that they were ready, she got up and headed towards the exit and the carriage.
- Wait, are we leaving Trey alone here? - Fel turned to the light elf uncomprehendingly.
For her, their relationship was strange, but now that the caravan was under attack, leaving him alone was a risk that he would be attacked and maybe killed. He was not dressed in the uniform of the academy and he could be mistaken for a simple magician who was sleeping.
- He'll be safe, trust me he's not alone. - Keirin spoke in a calm voice, looking at Trey.
Fel looked at Keirin uncomprehendingly, how could she say that he was not alone? She examined it completely and saw no artifacts, nothing that could confirm her words.
- But I don't see anything. - Fel said uncomprehendingly, looking from Keirin to Trey.
Hearing the girl's words, Keirin laughed, she didn't know why she was so worried about his safety, maybe she was just kind by nature? But without noticing it, her worldview began to change under the influence of chaos.
- You should be glad that you don't see it, so they don't see you as a threat to him. - Keirin spoke in a cheerful voice
Fel was even more confused about whom was Keirin talking about? Why did it seem to her that she was firmly convinced that someone was protecting this half-elf.
