56 Chapter 4: Antidote (1/2)
I made sure to cast furtim while we flew there so that they wouldn't notice, and once we finally reached them, i decided to keep it activate and observe the situation
Before we came, he was keeping the wolves at bay by casting and chanting Fire Wall spells and attacking them with flame blades, he was running out of power but their numbers were drastically decreasing.
Whenever the wolves sustained enough damage, they would disperse into thin air. There were around 20 and now only 10 remained
”Advanced Fire magic:: Flaming Sphere” He muttered
I was surprised. Not by the fact that he formed a sphere of flames which engulfed around 4 of the wolves, or because he still had that much energy in him, but because he called it 'Advanced Fire Magic'
Magic spells are given ranks... Then i wonder what my Ice Sphere would be... Probably advanced Ice magic... What about Glacies... Elementary magic? As i thought of such things, the man suddenly collapsed
”And that's our cue.” I muttered
The wolves slowly approached the man with caution, they seemed smarter than they looked. They had also lost the majority of their group...
As we were about to move in to save the poor man, A girl came out of the back of the carriage, She wore noble clean clothes and had long golden hair. She seemed to be around our age if not older.
The three of us just watched as she stood beside the man and began chanting.
”Young Lady, It's dangerous....” He muttered
Now that i got a closer look at him, The man didn't see like a magician or adventurer at all, in fact, he wore a black suit which gave him the appearance of a butler.
It was just the two of them here, i couldn't feel the presence of anyone else
As she was about to finish her chant, 3 Of the shadow wolves jumped straight at her
”Young lady!!” Shouted the man on the ground
”Glacies Murum” Translation: Ice Wall
A wall of ice was formed right in front of the trembling girl who had her chant interrupted. The Shadow 3 shadow wolves hit directly at it which formed a giant crack.
”Ariel, Serena, Let's go.” I said as i leapt straight at the 3 wolves which were about to go around the wall.
The teary girl looked around to find the source of the voice of the one who saved her
Once Serena and Ariel Left my radius, they became visible and the girl looked at them with a confused expression but didn't question it. She began chanting her spell again.
I deactivated furtim and me and her made eye contact as i swung my dagger at the shadow wolf. it wen't straight through.
”Physical attacks don't work on them!” Said Serena as she cast ignis and propelled it to one of the 3 shadow wolves which were on her and Ariel's side.
”And you only tell me this now?!” I said
The wolf which my dagger had gone through, tried biting on to my hand so i decided i'd let it.
”Glacio.” I muttered as i moved my hand to avoid it's bite and placed it on it's head.
Shortly after, the head of the wolf froze up and it disappeared into thin air
”That's one...” I muttered as i looked over at the other two in front of me.
The wolves began to growl as they jumped straight at me.
Their jumped at me, but i could tell i wasn't their target, if i had dodged it, they would have gone straight for the girl who was chanting. So instead...
