Chapter 186 - End of Avrion Academy (1/2)
Sweat started to run down from the faces of the others behind Ray. Their heartbeats could now be heard out loud as their fear at this point had reached their maximum. Each one of them continued to bow down while most of them looked at the ground.
They were too afraid to even lift their heads or get off the floor but here they were hearing Ray talk back to the Wyvern like he would do anyone else.
”Huh, I shall forgive you arrogant attitude.” Glac said, ”For I have promised the Divine being not to bring any of you harm.”
Everyone felt a weight lift off their shoulders as they heard the Wyvern say those words.
”You may all rise.”
And as Glen said those words the rest of them stood up. They now could see the sheer size of the beast and if they didn't know any better, they would have thought it was a Dragon.
”Why did you protect this city?” Ray asked.
The Wyvern opened its eyes to take a peek at Ray. For some reason, she felt like something was different about him compared to the rest of them. Although she didn't like his attitude, she felt like she was compelled to answer.
”A long time ago when this city was first being built, I had made a deal with the Divine being. If she was ever to pass or wasn't able to protect this city then I would defend it for her. She helped me out a long time ago when I was in search of special fruit, in return I agreed to her condition but now that I have completed the task, I no longer need to protect the city and can roam the land once again.”
”Thank you for your service to this city and the Divine being,” Von said.
The Wyvern then flapped its wings as if it was ready to take off but just before it did…
”WAIT!” Ray shouted.
Suddenly Glac stopped.
”What do you want?” She asked.
The others behind Ray were now all praying for their safety. They thought Ray had gone mad, he was clearly tempting fate and any second now Ray would say something that would anger the beast to kill them all.
”This city now belongs to me, no to us the Red Wings. It's no longer under the control of the Knights of Avrion or the Divine being but me.”
”And…”
”I will soon no longer be here to defend it, so I need someone to do that in my place. I want you to protect this city once more.”
Glac suddenly growled in her high shriek once again and then moved her head over to where Ray was standing. Her whole head was even bigger than Ray's entire body. The others moved back a step instinctively but Ray stayed put even though he was only a few inches away.
”You fool! Why would I even bother doing a favour for a human, That Divine being of yours was an exception but who are you to order me around?” Glac asked.
”Do you want to take a look?” Ray asked, ”You must have an ability to read minds do you not, I shall give you permission to read mine.”
Usually, Glac would ignore such a foolish human being but something was bothering her. The man standing in front of her was far too confident and she was incredibly curious to know why.
”Place your hand on my head and we shall start the linking process.”
