Chapter 153 - The Ark Of Eternal Unity Spark (1/2)

”Then who was that person?”

”Whoever it was, that's not the main issue now. The pressing thing now is that we can't stay here. That Umbra is using the Headmaster's power. That thing is virtually impossible to kill. We'll all die within the crossfire,” said Z.

”So, where shall we head to?” asked Earl Yan.

”I will allow you guys to take shelter at my domain,” offered the Duchess as she brought out her sniper rifle.

She then fired at the oncoming serpents, directly at the eyes.

”Venice...” said the Viscountess as she looked at her childhood friend.

”Don't worry. Focus on getting the Valkyrie away from here. Without her, there's no way we can stand a chance against this monster,” replied the Duchess, firing another shot.

”The Urnsfield was once our home Headquarters. It should suffice. That area has supplies from the olden days to take care of the Valkyrie. Many thanks, Duchess Midford,” said Z, as he carefully picked the young Mage.

Without much effort, he had tossed the poor Valkyrie onto his back. With a surge of Energy, Z leaped forward with inhuman speed.

”Let's go,” said Viscountess Ling, looking at the Earl.

”You catch up to Mavislin and Z. I'll go get Gab and help the Time Mage,” said the Earl as he whipped out his rifle.

”You can't defeat that thing.”

”No, but I can buy enough time for you lot to seek help. Go,” ordered the Earl, rushing off to the monster.

”Vernice? You coming?” asked Viscountess Ling.

The Duchess placed her sniper rifle back onto her back and ran towards Z and Mavislin. The area was now on lockdown, no one was to come out as the Mages are currently in war with the Umbras. Earl Yan's orders were strict, with no human interference unless it was necessary.

As the sun shined brightly, the day had started with two Mages soaring through the sky. Playing a nice game of tag. With the Umbra as 'it'.

The Time Mage was having the time of his life as he glitched through the air. He was teeming with blue sparks while having a smile on his face. The Umbra could not have been more pissed at the playful Time Mage. It was getting tired at the game of cat and mouse.

”You can't keep running, Time Mage,” warned the Umbra, as it caught up with the Mage.
