„Death is certain, but it doesn`t have to be ugly " 4-man
There it was, silence before the storm.
Confusion.
Attack of the goblins and thunder struck.
Fear.
And back to silence.
Admiration.
All of these emotions went threw Aries`s head in a flash, in one moment.
Ugly and unnatural monsters of the forest were wiped out
By the beauty and grace of the icy witch.
-Good thing you listen at least – Caya pushed herself using Aries`s head to stand up.
~What… was… that…~ He couldn`t get his mind around it.
Magic.
Concept of fantasy and dreams.
Light novels and movies.
All knew it and all wanted it, but no one could have it as it was just a fabricated imagination.
But now?
He saw it. He felt it.
True and real, magic.
~I … I … ~
He still laid on the ground, hearing his heart pounding fast, shivers of excitement on his body.
Meanwhile all others stood up and got ready to fight again.
-Get up, we still need to clear the remaining ones. –
Finn and Caya threw the dirt and leaves off them, some stick here and there
While Arron….. well Arron wasn`t that lucky.
Because instead of dirt in his hair on leaves in his shoes.
He got a very nice and sharp ice spike in the back.
-Arron, clean yourself. – He left his comrade and went on to slash a nearby goblin`s neck.
Arron stood there. Somehow still standing after the barrage.
Silent and not moving.
- Is , is he … okey – Aries raised his head just to see him.
Arron flexed his back and made a big exhale of breath, steam came out of his body.
His trapezius stiffened, spine muscles turned bloody red.
-HYAAAAAAA – he made a barbaric scream and broke the spike with purely his muscles.
And there was no big wound, no amazing scar or anything.
Just a small drip of blood dripping on his spine.
-Yea yeah, im fine. Don`t worry. – And as his colleagues he went on to smash some goblins skulls.
~ what… wai,… how??~
-Impressive right? – Caya shot an arrow in the distance and started chatting with Aries.
-no , wha .. I mean,… yes…. Extremely … what just… how did they…. – He couldn`t finish any sentence.
Too many information in his mind.
No explanation for it.
Just….. magic. And amazing muscles.
That he somehow could make an excuse for. Someone just VERY very hard flexed on him just now.
But ice? Ice missles? A tree of frozen water and leaves?? Floating around like nothing???
That wasn`t human. That wasn`t normal. That was... amazing.
-Oh one more thing – another arrow, another dead monster – Can you help Mona for now? –
~ Mona ? ~ Aries finally figured out she was talking about the robes.
And on top of that, the rest didn`t seem to need help.
But "Mona" was … well similar to Arron before, not doing anything.
Just standing still.
Falling down actually. Her knees gave up.
Aries barely managed to catch her before she landed on the spikes she just made.
-cc..ccc ooo … - Shivering, she sput out the word from her blue lips – C.c c coo o l l l d dd d –
Aries looked around and found the clothing she was wearing before.
Quickly tied her up and put next to a tree.
-You alright? – He tried to talk to her. Not really getting the result of a conversation.
-Heyyyyy Mona – Archer came quickly to check up on her – How you holdin girll??
Finn and Arron both sprinkled with green blood came too.
-We cleared all of them. Good job team. Time to rest.
