Chapter 294 - King Max (1/2)

The small village that was once seemed peaceful was now covered in black blood. All the spider's guts had exploded and were out on the field.

”Did you do that Van?” Bliss asked.

But Van didn't reply, instead, he remained with both of his hands held out, shaking for the worst to come.

Then suddenly a fist came out and was planted right on Van's check hitting him hard and sending him to the floor.

”What do you think you're doing!” Bliss shouted.

”This guy,” Blake said standing over him. ”He could have done that at the very beginning, he could have saved the other two student's lives.”

Bliss hated to be the one to agree with Blake but what he said was true. If Van was able to do something like that, then why did he wait until now to use it.

However, the punch didn't do much to Van, he stood up from the ground and looked at everyone.

”We have to run, get out of here, everyone I will stay here.”

”No!” Flynn said, ��No more students are dying and I hate to say it Van but do you know what would happen if you were to die, the whole kingdom would be in an uproar. Think of your mother.”

The students there including Bliss didn't understand the professor's words at all. That was because the professor was the only person there who knew Van's true identity, the prince of the Alure kingdom.

Just then though, their attention was focused on something else. They could hear something coming towards them from the forest and judging by the sound of each step it was incredibly fast.

”I knew it, they're here.” Van said, ”Everyone run!”

But the students knew by just how fast the mysterious figure was coming towards them, they would have no hope of running away. Then finally, the figure had come into view.

A large black wolf around the size of a house.

”That looks like it's going to be a lot more difficult than those spiders.” Said Bliss.

Everyone readied into a fighting position once again, but as they looked at the beast and could see it getting closer they could see people on top of the thing.

”Are there people on top of that thing?” A student asked.

”I think there waving.”

As the beast got closer, they could also hear a voice yelling out at them.

”Hey, guys!” Max shouted, ”Don't attack, it's us Max and the rest, we come in peace.”

Just then a thump was felt on top of Max's head.

”What do you mean and the rest?” Professor Springett said with her fist clenched.

The wolf had come to a halt as it reached the village. Standing firm and strong. As the rest looked at the beast they couldn't believe what they were seeing. Max and the others were really riding on top of such a thing.

Noir then bent down to allow the others to climb off her and once they all had done, she started to walk over to a specific student. The rest of the students cleared a path for her. Still afraid that something might happen at any second.

Just looking at the beast they felt like if they got on it's bad side it would be able to finish them with a single swipe of its claw.
