Chapter 130: A gangster Deity, Black Dino, and trusted bodyguards... (2/2)
Good thing that this Monitoring Device was made by magical energy, and not ordinary devices. It could somehow identify the silhouette but could not figure clearly because of the thick mist.
The audiences outside the world in the painting were whispering if who it was.
Occasionally, those two birds would sprint around them when some monsters wandered at 25 meters distance from them. Then, those would open fire at the enemy.
Their initial thoughts, ”are those two birds are Spirit Beast?” Asked the empress who had her eyes fixed at the monitor in front of them.
”No, they are not!” Ella, who had a surprised face, answered the empress.
”Eh, are you sure, Rea Honey?”
”Yes, Aunt,” firmly affirm Ella.
”Then what are those?”
”Sorry Aunt, I can't figure out what those birds are, but I do feel that they are not Spirit Beast.”
The empress glanced at the Knight-Captain, ”do you know what those two birds Mr. Knight-Captain Borge Bergal?” She asked him.
Borge Bergal stared at the monitor with a frown, then he shook his head saying, ”sorry your Majesty, those two, if her Highness Princess Merea Ella said that it wasn't Spirit Beasts, then I don't have any idea what it was,” he said with a sorry face for being unhelpful.
”I see, if even the Knight-Captain and Rea doesn't know about it, then I guess none of us can explain that thing.” Said the empress with full of curiosity.
”Aside from that, I wonder who those people riding the dino Spirit Beast,” added the empress.
Ella focused her eyes, a moment later, her eyes glowed with blue brilliance, then the Monitoring Device hovered closer to the people riding on the dino.
Upon seeing the figure, and the familiar armor, ”It's him!” She exclaimed.
”Eh? Who do you mean?” The press asked with puzzled looks.
”I-I mean, The Mysterious, the guy who protected me from attackers a while ago.”
”Ehhh? So that guy is 'The Mysterious'?!” Surprised the empress.
”Yes! Aunt!”
”Fufufu,” laughed the empress with a glint of interest within her eyes. 'So it was him, huh!' She thought.
The thing about the killing of the Demonic Beast was still lingering within her mind. And that person was one of the suspects.
'Fufufu!' She laughed inwardly which reflected on her face.
”Yo-You look happy, Aunt…” Ella muttered.
”No it's nothing,” she said.
”.....”
Since it was that person, then those two birds, it was only him who could explain it to them. That person really did some unbelievable stuff in this competition.
On top of that, if she wasn't wrong, that beautiful girl that was riding in tandem with him, it was the Miss from Lupine Family! Just by judging her hair color and those two Wolf ears!
She wondered how he got close to her. Or perhaps those two knew each other beforehand. Ella wondered.
Nonetheless, 1 kilometer away, east of the last barrier, the group of Ember, Aegor, Taflas, and Tiafel found themselves in a disadvantageous situation against 10 demons. They were surrounded by both sides!
They have their back facing each other while readying themselves.
Huff! Huff! Huff!
”Tsk, we are almost there. Why these monsters have to show up!” Said Tiafel with a grimace on her face.
Though they were not sure, the towering shadow ahead gave them a conclusion that it was the last barrier.
(GWAAAAARRRR!)
Growl the demons, while their mouths were dripping with sticky saliva.
(HARRR! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH...!)
One of the demons consecutively brandished its claw to Aegor!
(TING! TING! TING!)
But Ember used his Partial-Transformation Artefact and parried its attack.
(THUMP! BANG!) Ember sent a kick on the demon's stomach after he completely parried all of its (Claw Slashing Attack!). The demon was sent 5 steps away from them and crashed on the ground, which its back skidded a few meters.
However, it didn't hurt it. The demon stood up again.
(GWAAAAAARARRRR!!!) After the first demon was sent crashing on the ground, the others rushed to attack at the same time.
”Thanks, Mr. Ember!” Aegor said his thanks.
”No biggie, you guys stay alert! They are going to attack!”
Everyone grimaced from Ember's warning. They knew that the current situation was a hopeless one.
Right after Ember shouted, all of the demons around them brandished their claws. While the others leaped in mid-air while raising their claws higher.
”Mr. Ember, you can leave us, and save yourself!” Tiafel urged him.
”She's right Mr. Ember, you can't die here with us!”
Taflas added.
A sweat trailed on Ember's face. If only it was him, he had the means to escape. But as a member of the Lupine family, he could not disgrace their proud family names.
Aegor remained quiet, he wanted to survive in this elimination round. He bit his lips.
(AHHHHHHHHH! I KILL YOU DEMONS!!) He rushed forward to clash with the demon in front of him. He could not die without a fight. He wanted to survive this round.
However, his hammer was caught by one of the demons and stopped his attack.
”Aegor!”
Everyone shouted his name after seeing the demon raised its hand higher.
Aegor grimaced and subconsciously closed his eyes.
But before the hand could brandish downward,
(WOOSH! WOOSH!)
Two crimson birds collided with the demon's face.
(BANG! BANG!)
After seeing the birds, ”[Fire Dolls]?” Taflas muttered in surprise.
”CRIMSON!” Shout Tiafel.
