Chapter 5 - escape

Draken could feel the power flowing through his veins, if his body could express emotions he would be laughing out loud now like a mad villain.

His breakthrough caught the attention of the white robed mage, who suddenly felt a sense of danger from a tier 1 mage? That didn't make sense as he himself is a tier 4 mage, but he remained cautious as he raised his staff pointing towards the ceiling, ready to cast a wide range spell. A white magic circle appeared above almost covering the entire room. 

From it, a rain of light arrows fell down, like a divine punishment from the heaves above, there was hundreds of arrows and they attacked everyone, who's not on his side. 

The attack pushed everyone back, as they did their best to defend themselves, some tried to dodge but the numbers where too many, so they starting using their powers and equipment to block. Draken doesn't have any equipment, in fact the only thing on his body is black trousers, nothing more, nothing less.

So he has to get creative or he might die, using his blood powers, he controlled the blood of the three dead from ego,, yes three have already died, with two killed by the arrow rain and one by a knight. Controlling their blood Draken managed to create a shield around him blocking the arrows but their strength is great and his barrier is collapsing.

He has to find another way to defend or attack, thinking this he looked at the blood shield around him and he felt a calling, telling him, the blood is his power.

Listening to this calling, Draken had an idea, he pulled the blood closer to him wrapping it around his body compressing it to the point it turned almost black, creating a armour of blood on his body an armour much stronger than the blood barrier not to mention it even boosted his strength and speed as this is the blood of powerful worriers and mages.

[New skill: Blood battle armour]

Draken was taken aback, he knows what this is, but he didn't ask for this from the mysterious entity who brought him here, but there is no time to dwell on that, he needs to escape, you might be wondering why he hasn't escaped yet, we'll that is because of a little orb that was held by Ivor, the divine scripture. According to that human, the scripture has information about me.

'I need to get the scripture and the human out of here and that's going to be hard, I need to create some sort of distraction or smokescreen'. Drakens mind was working overtime to come up with a solution because it seems like the mage was about to cast another powerful spell.

This meant he put down the barrier to conserve his mana, this gave Ivor a chance to attack, since the rain of arrows has already stopped. Ivor also started up charging his spell with magic circles appearing above his palms. Draken was also charging up something as jet black smoke was coming from his body and even his mouth.

With 3 people charging up their attacks, the room was trembling, looking like it will collapse anytime soon. On one side of the room there was light, on the other the was black flames and finally there was a cloud of pure darkness simply spreading across the room. 

There was complete silence in the room, everyone holding their breaths waiting for the first one to make a move, and they did have to wait long as a jet of black flames was released heading towards the white robed magician who also quickly retaliated as a beam of pure light left the magic circle in front of him. Draken fully unleashed the darkness.
