Chapter 338 - Black Blood (1/2)
Nighttime had fallen and as one would expect from a top guild, the security didn't relax one bit. The guards stationed in front of the cells would rotate, and it seemed like the people who were stationed around the border, would do the same.
As they would constantly see people coming in and out from the camp. The only person who never seemed to move was the lieutenant. Although it was obvious which tent the lieutenant stayed in since it was placed in the centre of the camp, and was the biggest out of all the ones there.
”Let's go!” Ray said.
The townspeople stood nearby watching the six just wondering what they were going to do and how they would break out of their cuffs and cells. Jack was quite a muscular tall boy so they thought he had used his brute strength but with the rest, they had a hard time imagining them breaking anything.
On Ray's word, every one of them broke off the metal cuffs at the same time. Some of them using magic, while the others used Ki.
The people looked at them in amazement but still didn't know how six people would be able to do this on their own.
”Err guys.” Van said. ”I'm still stuck a little.” While the others broke off their cuffs easily, Van still was an amateur when it came to magic apart from harnessing the power from within.
”Come here,” Lenny said as he cast a spell and caused the cuffs to rust and fall to the ground.
Ray then called over both Martha and Jack, and without saying anything ripped off the sleeves on their clothes, revealing the mark of the Redwings.
The crowd behind them gasped.
”it's them, I've never seen them in person.”
”Did they come to save us?”
”But how would they have known we were here.”
”They look so young they were probably captured.”
The old man was again stepped forward and smiled. ”Now I know why you were so confident. You have others coming don't you? An army has been called forward.”
The crowd started chatting once more and this time were more uplifted.
”Yes, that would make sense.”
”Perhaps the Redwings sent their whole army after hearing of the suffering we heard.”
Ray didn't reply back but stepped up to the cell bars, he then bent them open using both hands causing a cracking sound.
The two guards who were stood just outside turned their head at the sound but before they could even do anything Ray had grabbed both of their faces and slammed them into the ground.
”No one else is coming, it's just us,” Ray replied.
As everyone went through the bars that Ray had bent forward, Jack was the last one to go through them and he bent them back together. ”I think it's better if you guys stay here.”
They did as told but still couldn't help but pray that the Black Rings would go easy on them once they had been captured. However, once they knew they were part of the Redwings they couldn't imagine there punishment would be light.
After waiting a few moments, suddenly the sounds of screams could be heard throughout the camp. Explosions were happening left and right. Fire balls through the air. Blood splattered into the knight sky and finally what looked like an angel up above in the moonlight.
