"Young master...I am only able to assess the little girl. I could not get anything from the woman and the beast....her aura.."
"I know...but we must kill that beast no matter what happens...Cassandra!" The hooded man mounted on the beast called out.
"Yes, young master!" The other one saluted
"Go! If none of us makes it out...make sure you report this to master," he ordered.
The one named Cassandra nodded and then disappeared.
The young master dismounted from his beast and prepared to attack.
...
"Azure.... attack!" Ivy commanded
Azure opened his beast mouth and charged some golden light in his mouth.
He was actually charging his attack.
The panther demon beast saw this attack and created a shield wanting to protect its master.
The attack flew out towards the two dark mages. This attack was so powerful that it broke the shield and harmed the panther throwing it away from its master.
One of the dark mages saw this as an opportunity and decided to attack Ivy because she was Azure 's master.
The dark mage teleported behind the mother and daughter pair, created a lightning spell and launched it.
What the dark mage did not know was that Azure jad seen his movements since he was four times quicker than them.
Azure simply pounced on the dark mage, and, like the animal he was, he ripped him to shreds.
His beast-like self turned to the last remaining dark mage who was chanting in an unknown language.
Ivy had a bad premonition about what the dark mage was doing.
Azure charged towards the dark mage to finally finish him before he could finish chanting hos forbidden spell.
Azure knew he was chanting a forbidden spell and he Wondered as to how the dark mages got hold of the forbidden scriptures.
Suddenly, a circle with some weird symbols formed underneath Azure freezing him on his place.
Ivy saw this and became horrified.Unconsciously, she ran towards Azure calling out for him. Even though she had just met him , a few minutes ago, she felt close to him and she did not want to loose him yet.
...a few minutes back....
"Little wolf.....can I trust you?"
Little wolf was spooked but also shocked with the familiar aura. The last time he heard this kind of question was from his last master who had already ascended to the heavenly realm but since he, little wolf, was still weak, he could not ascend with his former master.
With a determined look, he vowed to grow strong and powerful so that he could accompany his new master to the heavenly realm.
"Yes you can trust me mistress" little wolf said determinenedly.
"Then I shall name you Azure!"
Back to the present.....
A blood red surge of light emitted from the drawing and symbols harming azure which made hi release a powerful roar.
This blast also pushed Ivy and made her fall on her butt.
When Scarlett saw this, she ran towards her to help her.
The blast contained large amount of power which tore through the sky.
The roar from the little wolf faded but the blast did not.
Ivy consoled herself not to cry because she could still feel Azure's heartbeat.
When the roar stopped, the dark mage laughed maniacally as red veins formed in his hands.
He removed his hood revealing his face. He did not stop laughing as More and more red veins began appearing on his face.
His face could be considered so handsome but because of how he laughed like a maniac he looked like a demon straight from hell.
Suddenly, the mage stopped laughing and had a horrified expression on his face.
His face remained standstill for a moment then exploded in the next which made Scarlett scream in fear and ivy completely horrified.
Suddenly, a golden light appeared from the power surge. A few seconds later, the red power dissipated revealing Azure's new form.
He had two golden horns. The horns were like those of a growing lamb. He had hawk_like golden wings, a golden qave pattern on his fur and golden eyes.
Ivy then felt a sudden burst of energy within her. She then found out that she had reached gold fourth rank of the human realm.
She was truly astonished with that revelation.
Azure flew down to his master and lovingly nozzled her making her chuckle.
Scarlett saw that scene and tears formed on her eyes.
"We have a new member in our family!" She screamed.
The scene was so touching that she could not hold back her tears.
Azure saw Scarlett crying and so he went and nozzled her als nozzled her lovingly which made her laugh.
The scene was shortly cut off by a growl. It came from the panther demon beast.
