Chapter 119 - Silence (2/2)
The two of them wanted to rest but when they looked around the arena, they could still see the others struggling.
”Come on let's go help out,” Bader said.
Sloth nodded and the two of them quickly went to the third-year students who were looked like they needed the most help at the moment.
Meanwhile, Dan was currently facing Arthur in a one on one fight. A couple of Dark Guild members had tried to join the fight to tip the scales in Arthur's favour but Josh and Jake would then use their water magic to push them away.
Dan was seriously struggling against Arthur. He was mainly on the defensive blocking strong powerful blows. Every time the long sword would hit Dan's spear, he could feel the vibrations ringing through his body, causing his arms to feel numb.
Dan knew that if he carried on like this, he would eventually lose the fight and needed to do something fast. Arthur's attacks were not only getting stronger with each strike but he was slowly starting to get possessed more and more by the shadow plague.
The white in his eyes started to turn purple and the power of his Ki continued to increase. The next attack from Arthur caused Dan to stumble and fall to the ground.
”This is the end!” Arthur said as he swung for one last hit at Dan.
Then out from the side, a spinning tornado powered arrow seemed to shoot out of nowhere and knock the sword right out of Arthurs's hand. Dan didn't think twice before using his spear to stab Arthur right in the throat.
A few seconds later Arthurs body had become lifeless. Dan then moved his spear to slowly throw Arthurs body onto the ground. As he got up from the floor, he saw Cherry in the distance had fallen to her knees.
With the help of Badger and Sloth, the third-year students finished dealing with the Dark Guild members. When Cherry went to look around the arena, she saw that Dan was in trouble and used all her energy to shot one last shot, saving Dan's life.
Dan quickly went over to the third-year students and bowed down to Cherry dearly for saving his life, then he quickly noticed that everyone in the arena had stopped fighting. There were no longer any Dark Guild members stood up left alive.
Everyone was tired and worn out, their clothes covered in blood, scars and wounds all over from multiple attacks. If the fight went on any longer, they all would have lost their energy.
Everyone naturally moved to the centre of the arena were Sir K and Mathew were stood. The students wanted advice on what they should next and went to those in charge.
In the middle of the arena was, Sir K, Mathew, Jake and Josh were the a.d.u.l.ts were present. Then the third-year students, Jack, Harry and Cherry and lastly the second year students Badger, Sloth and Dan. Ian was still on the floor slowly breathing, Sir K was doing his best to treat the wounds, it looked like Ian would live for now but needed to get to a hospital as soon as possible.
The arena was suddenly peaceful, as the sound of fighting stopped but that didn't last long. From the entrance of the arena, the sound of people running and m.o.a.ning could be heard. The whole stadium felt like it was slightly vibrating, as the sounds of hundreds of people running could be heard.
Everyone's attention was now on the entrance of the arena, waiting to see what was coming next.
