"Booom, Thud"
The sound of something hitting the ground was heard by everyone in the villa. Avan was getting treatment from a mage that specialized in healing and medicine. A sort of mix between a doctor and a magician. Avan heard many sounds in his room where he was being treated. Avan was sitting on a chair as he was instructed.
"Don't move Mr. avan. This will hurt a bit. Here take this and put it in your mouth. The stone has some numbing properties. It will make the pain a little bearable."
She gave him a cloth that was rolled on some cylindered shape stone. The magician also strapped him on the chair with a magical cloth lace for safety. It was due to the pain that many would immediately try to stop the process making permanent damage to the body.
Avan knew what she meant. Serious injuries were hard to heal. Avan looked at the burned hand. It was burned to the bone. He could see slightly his bone burnt black from an opening of the wound on his right hand.
[I pushed myself too far. I'm too weak]
He did not notice it right away before because even his nerves were damaged as well but after hans took a look at his hand he pointed out avan was seriously injured. The Incomplete magic attack would have killed him if he poured his entire magical energy.
"I'm ready," Avan said in a much-muffled voice and nodded as well.
The magician placed some lunar stones on her hands and started waving her hand in a circular motion. A stream of magical energy followed her hand movement that was talking mana from the lunar stones. Her eyes started to glow as she held avan hand and the circular ring of energy started to circle avan elbow. The ring moved from his elbow slowly towards his fingers destroying and recreating his arm in the process. Every nerve every cell everything from the smallest thing was remade.
The mage was chanting something otherworldly as she held his hand with both her hands. High humans had amazing pain tolerance but this process was making avan cry and writhe all over the place.
"AAA" avan muffled screams were continuous as he squirmed all over the place
This process was necessary for avan as he was a mage. He damaged the ethereal magic circuits in his arms trying to cast a magical spell he had little knowledge of. . After a few minutes the ring of magical energy had reconstructed his arm and faded away. The mage that was in a trance also came back to her senses as her white eyes faded. She was glad the deed was done. Checking on avan, she witnessed something truly that stunned her beyond belief. Avan had red-shot eyes. He spat the muffler from his mouth. He was still conscious.
"By the lunars, are you ok? Aavan?"
Having a horrified expression. She hurriedly unstrapped him and laid him on the bed. The 2 guards watching her were astonished as well. Never had they seen someone maintain consciousness after the healing process. It was just unheard of.
Avan was laying on the bed when he felt his right arm. He could move it now. Avan stubbornness was at an all-time high. After experiencing his shortcoming in the sky festival he never wanted to feel that helpless ever again.
[I will never underestimate anything ever again. I never want to experience a hopeless situation like that ever again.]
Avan never was the same after his past incident when he nearly died. Recalling his past avan expression because sad.
In the midst of the magician looking at avan for any abnormalities, the right side of the walls of the room cracked
"Crack, Creak"
A figure flew through the cracks and hurled into the ground with such force that a cloud of dust arose. Ray spad blood as he was laying on the floor with many severe bruises. Avan although barely holding consciousness could not believe what he was seeing. All of them in the room were shocked. The magician immediately ran to check on ray condition.
Feeling his body and laying it chest front. Ray was unconscious.
"Broken bones, fractures as well as burns in his left hand as well as his torso. His LEGS He is in serious condition" A seriously concerned expression was on the magician's face. She immediately took action without wasting time and laid him on the empty reading table in the room and started treating him with some medicine that she took out from her waist pouch as well as healing magic.
"Secure the premise. We need to defend them" One guard spoke loudly and positioned himself in a battle-ready posture looking at the hole in the wall ready for anything. The other guard went to the side of avan , ray, and the magician to defend them from any threat.
=================================================================================================
Hans entered rays room opening the door with force.
Lilly was crying on the bed scared and terrified hugging a pillow. Seeing her in such a state, hans immediately hurried in her direction and took her in his arms. He was lifting her in his arms so she would feel secure.
"What happened? Calm down little Lilly. You're safe now."
The guards that also entered the room were examining the state it was in. One looked at the hole in the wall with some concern and astonishment.
"Something broke through it"
Hans tried to console Lilly and make her comfortable so that she can stop quivering from fear. Patting her head he then asked again. Lilly after calming somewhat spoke while having some hiccups and teary eyes. She still could not calm down after seeing the dark rift walker.
"Blotherr fought the monster. Hick He sved Hick me. He beat it and fell from there"
Lilly pointed at the big hole in the wall. Hans was quick in assessing the situation. He immediately yelled
"ALL OF YOU GO HELP RAYHEIN DOWN THERE"
All the guards after hearing the command immediately leap and jump from the second floor of the villa to the ground to help rayhein.
Hans was certain there was only one thing that could do this. Also, there was only one thing that could scare Lilly like this
[That fucking summoner finally showed Itself]
Hans left the room in a hurry carrying Lilly in his arms to take her to a safe place. Hans planned to return to help rayhein as soon as he was done.
======================================================================================
A few minutes ago
Ray was falling from his room. The dark rift walker had grabbed his ankle and he was dragged with him it falling to the ground.
"THUD"
The impact made a dust cloud. Ray after a few moments emerged from the dust. He felt that thing did not let go of his legs as he tried to take a step. The dark rift walker stood up and held ray upside down as it was holding his ankle.
A set of glowing eyes emanated from the dust cloud as it was settling down. Ray was freaked out by this. The desperation was in his eyes. He was scared out of his mind. Yet he was thinking as well about what to do. How to escape.
[Not like this. Fuck. Should I rip off my ankle?]
Ray was seriously considering just tearing his ankle off and making a run for it. He was no match for a monster like this. Even if that bought only moments it was better than dying immediately in rays mind
"YOU DON'T BELONG HERE. WHAT ARE YOU?"
Looking deeply with glowing eyes ray continued to struggle trying to free himself.
YOU ARE A THREAT TO US ALLLL."
With his claws ready in the air He lunged it at ray. Ray immediately grabbed his ankle and nearly tore it off with his full strength. A sword struck out of nowhere and cut the hand.
"Swish"
The strike wind pressure was so strong that it created a wind tsunami that traveled in the direction of the villa breaking some of the glass of the villa. The hand landed on the ground as some kind of black mist was covering the wound of the dark rift walker.
The Dark rift walker immediately looked in the direction from where the attack came. A man of equal stature was wielding a sword the same size as him. His sword had wind circling it as if it was the center of a tornado.
"THE NEXT STRIKE WILL BE YOUR HEAD. LET MY SON GO"
Ivan was standing was emitting tremendous mana that was swirling around him like a tornado. With a stern bloodthirsty expression, he was looking at the dark rift walker like a hawk. If the thing tried anything he would cut it down.
Many guards that also came to help ray felt shivers down their spine from the aura of Ivan but without wasting time they jumped the dark rift walker without fear. They were the people that Ivan trained and saved along his journey. Fearless warriors would lay down their lives to defend the estate. Most of their family also lived near the estate. The monster was a threat to everyone.
One slashed the arm that was holding ray. One tried to hold the monster and grabbed it by the waist.
Ray had damaged his angle but he could not tear it off as the wind pressure nearly knocked him out. It was like a grenade shockwave at point-blank range. Ray was stunned and had blood coming from his nose and ankle.
The dark rift walker shrugged everyone off bursting with dark swirling mist around him he then threw ray hard as it could as it had to escape the situation. It was outmatched. It was well aware of the fact. He wanted to distract Ivan.
Ray was launched like a cannon toward the villa. His body bared the brunt of the impact as he flew through many walls while talking serious damage. Ivan glanced at ray and that was the moment the dark rift walker shrouded himself in a dark misty and vanished. Ivan tried to slash him but it already escaped.
