239 Another Ambush (1/2)

The forest between Agora and Sigalla was dense and the rain was making their journey laborious. Inside the Jewel, Don was supporting his head with his fist and thinking about what trouble Arwen got into in Mairis.

BANG!

Suddenly a ripple of energy clashed with the Jewel and sent the Jewel flying into the forest in full force.

”My King!”

Don heard his men shouting but the shouting sound became distant and he could only hear the cracking sounds of trees breaking as he was bouncing around the Jewel.

”Pch!” Don spat out a mouthful of blood as the Jewel came to a stop.

”Ah!”

He could feel immense pain in his arm and slowly turned his head to see the bone sticking out of his right arm. Since the black energy was blocking the battle energy from circulating, his body couldn't heal itself and before he could access the space ring, the Jewel was attacked again.

The skies turned dark and the thunder clasps gave out a gloomy feeling. Half a moment later, the sound of the sound barrier-breaking could be heard as he tried to stand up.

”Ca...Cat”

He could tell that at least six of his ribs were broken and organs inside were damaged due to the head and the amount of blood coming out of his head and mouth, he knew he wouldn't be able to stay awake for a long time.

But inside his head, he still didn't get any reply from Catalie.

”Bang!” a large gigantic sword made of red energy smashed into the Jewel with an explosive bang, filling the air with an intense heat that blew across the environment. The Jewel's roof crumbled under its might, forming a huge hole on the roof. If it wasn't for Reghy's scales, the sword would have hit Don and crushed him.

His face maintained a grave expression as he looked at the hole through his bloodied eyesight. From this, he could tell the strength of this person should not be weaker than a peak grandmaster.

The surrounding air around the Jewel and him began to ripple with heat as if a meteorite was streaking through the sky before another attack of sword smashed into the place where Don was. Fortunately, he was able to use a tiny amount of battle energy and move aside before the attack could land on him

Gritting his teeth in pain, he slowly crawled out of the Jewel as the rain started to soak him and wash away the blood. For a few mile radius, there was no tree but a huge crater around him and broken remains of what seemed to be huge trees.

Suddenly, another three streaks of red energy came across the sky like shooting stars with a fiery trail. By this point, he was completely surrounded by the ocean of fire. It was fifty meters tall and covered the sky with its flame. There was nowhere in front that Don could hide, so he could only try to stand up and continue trying to communicate with Catalie.

The temperature within the sea of fire had been so hot that the energy from the shield that he had around his body instantly shattered and ignited the furs on his armor on fire. It was so hot that even his hair, eyebrows, and beard were on the verge of burning up.

”Bang!”

Suddenly, another loud explosion could be heard as the sea of fire exploded. The darkness of the storm was illuminated for a brief moment, and the birds that were taken shelter under the trees had flown away terrified.

Within the sea of fire still, Don had suffered another great hit as the hit broke more bones in his body. Spitting out a mouthful of blood, he was on the verge of losing his consciousness.

”Hmm, even after using such powerful attacks, you are still alive, impressive”
