In another part of the forests behind the academy.
Shing!
A blinding silver light arc flashed in the air as Theo sheathed and unsheathed his sword, and the big flying beetle, Titan Skyripper, fell into two halves, splattering the ground with thick dark blood.
Behind Theo, standing some meters away, were about three students who seemed to be in a very bad condition, their clothes ripped in some places, exposing their bruised, injured skin. As soon as they confirmed that the beast had been killed, the eyes of those three students lit up with gratitude.
Though Nox didn't know it, because of how easily he had dealt with the Titan Skyripper that attacked him, for the majority of the students, the Titan Skyripper was very powerful, and the three students had experienced this firsthand.
If it was not for the intervention of Theo, who was passing by, they would have almost lost their lives.
