Chapter 99 - 99: Reckless

"Where the hell is Van!?"

President Hannah's speech was only starting, but alas, it was cut short as Van was nowhere to be seen She was going to say,

'Do what you do best',

But she didn't mean it in a way that he should run away She wanted him to protect and pull the other students ere not fast enough to safety She had a lot more to say, but since the cockatrice had already landed near them, it was not like she had any more choice on the matter as she summoned another sword of fire in her left hand

The newly cockatrice was alht earlier And assu its hurried steps towards the smaller cockatrice were of concern, one could only assume that it was the dead cockatrice's parents

And as soon as it reached the dead cockatrice, it tried to pull it up with its beak But alas, when it let go, the dead cockatrice's head just slaround The newly arrived cockatrice stared at it for a few seconds, tilting its head from side to side

And after a few seconds, it let out a crow that shook even the trees themselves

Yes, it was definitely one of the dead cockatrice's parents

"Gerald, get ready to stop it in its tracks as soon as it--"

"I can take it on alone!"

Before Hannah could even finish her orders, Gerald already rushed towards thecockatrice

"Don't be reckless!"

Hit first, and strike with no rounds, this has become one of his aphoris sure he was not within its eyes

"!!!"

But as Gerald was only a few meters away from the cockatrice, its tail suddenly whipped towards hiround to avoid the tail of death that al thisthe cockatrice andto folloith an uppercut, but the cockatrice's wings threw him away as it quickly flew in the air

"damn it, Gerald!" Hannah's sword of fire swayed and flickered in her hand, it becaer and thinner as she raised it above her head And without pause, threw it towards the flying cockatrice

The cockatrice, however, just flailed its tail, co Hannah's spear of fire

"Come back down here!" Gerald imitated Mr Jacobs' move as he leaped into the air Sadly for hi to do as it quickly hing at the now airborne Gerald

Gerald protected hi for the cockatrice's attack, but it never came Instead, the cockatrice's eyes were focused on the petrified student, which was being protected by Harvey

And with a slight snap of its tail, it flew straight towards the petrified student

"No!" Gerald desperately stretched his arrab the cockatrice "Harvey, run!"

Seeing thehim, Harvey tried to carry the petrified student, but as soon as he heard a light crack, he instantly retracted his hand

"Oh,cockatrice He then sto it in He let out a deep breath as he stretched his hand, "I can take it", he convinced hi his chest with his fists as he provoked the cockatrice even further

"No! Leave the fcking statue alone! Run!" Gerald grit his teeth as he watched as Harvey stupidly welcomed the cockatrice's beak into his arms

"Khh!"

Blood instantly spewed froed the cockatrice's head

Weird, he thought When Mr Jacobs' did this, he made it look so easy… was it the size of his ed to slon the cockatrice, his feet digging to the ground as he was being pushed

"S… sht" Harvey could not help but curse as he felt the petrified student on his back, any round And so, with a deep breath, he screamed, the blood and saliva that mixed in his a Planet Slam!" He screamed as he lifted the cockatrice's head into the air and then slah the air, with the ground slightly shaking

This tremble, however, completely took away the last balance that the petrified student had as his body slowly tilted to the ground

"No!"

Harvey was about to catch him, but alas, it would seerovel to the ground instead

"!!!" Harvey could only close his eyes, waiting for the shattered pieces of his classmate to whisper in his ears, but contrary to his expectations, it did not come Instead, as he opened his eyes oncethe petrified student into her arhter as a war enveloped his body

"This is…"
