*BOOM!*
The resounding sound of multiple swords being slashed at a rock-hard barrier rang in the forest as the glowing barrier made of metal elemental particles shook violently but soon retained stillness as if it was made of rubber.
The knights beyond the barrier were not discouraged as it wasn't the time for sulking. They needed to act fast and decisively.
The knights knew that Alier was very strong and fully capable of protecting himself. However, no matter how mighty he was, he was outnumbered. And unfortunately, Ethan was a liability that he needed to protect.
So the barrier needed to be removed as soon as possible before it was too late.
The Moon was playing games of hide and seek with the clouds as its brilliance was fickle, and the atmosphere had grown eerie. One moment the forest glowed with a silvery luminous glow and the next moment the lunar brilliance disappeared completely, leaving only darkness everywhere.
