31 Void Teleportation (1/2)
Swish!
A Sky Piercing arrow struck its target in a swift motion, piercing the tough hide of a large and malicious looking Magical Beast. This beast that stood at least two meters tall and wielded sharp, massive claws was struck lifeless as this arrow pierced its neck and swiveled outwards before vanishing into dust.
'I finally hit!' The little kitten exclaimed in thought as she leaped backwards and into safety as that large Magical Beast's lifeless body fell flat before her at the place she stood just moments ago. 'That beast was a lot swifter that it looked!'
”Nice one, little lass!” Jonathan cheered on the side as he wielded what seemed like some sort of blade made of pure electricity that he pierced through a Magical Beast of similar baring.
”Alright, that was the last one!” Uncle Kil said with a smirk as he wiped his bloodied fists, his fists having seen much action in the last few hours since they had left the last cave.
”This kitten is shocking me every other second!” A wilderwolf soldier who was sheathing his long blade spoke up as he walked into the scene. ”To think a young kitten is capable of killing Early Stage Major Magical Beast's!”
”Yeah, you've thoroughly impressed us, little kitten!” Another soldier spoke up with a laugh as he leaned down to pat the little kitten's head, who purred in satisfaction.
'Hehehe, praise me more!' The little kitten purred.
”Okay, okay. Let's not stroke her ego too much.” Jonathan laughed. ”Literally and figuratively!”
This got a laugh out of the surrounding soldiers who had begun to excavate the fallen Magical Beast's at this point, salvaging any valuable materials and sending them over to Jonathan and Uncle Kil to keep them safe in their Magic Pocket's.
At this time, the voice of a women belonging to the group ahead of them shouted out. ”We're to regroup, we've arrived at the Thunder Scaled Half-Dragon's territory! Relay to the group below you!”
Uncle Kil quickly replied before doing as instructed, repeating what she said to the group below them.
Soon, after settling everything with the excavation of the Magical Beast's body parts, the Wilderwolf party reached the rest of the gathering Magician's and Magical Beast's at what looked to be the edge of a part of the forest where the mountain opened up to a large clearing.
Peaking out from the last vestiges of the forest, the little kitten could see the rest of Thunder Mountain consisted of a series of ledges and crisscrossing pathways before reforming into the forest once more. Looking left and right, she also noticed that they had reached the apex of the second tallest mountain peak of the five peaks that make up Thunder Mountain and that the light rain that has been baring down on the earth has settled, though the sun still hides behind dim grey clouds. However, all of these findings were secondary to the main object of note. The towering and fear inducing Thunder Scaled Half-Dragon that was standing directly in front of all of them at a distance of 500 meters.
Standing at even this distance from these beast's was a daunting task and the little kitten felt her fur extend to their furthest reach and her small but sharp claws dug into the dirt below. A pressure seemed to press down on her and she couldn't peer her gaze away from this beast as it took excruciatingly slow steps forward, one after the other.
A stoic voice broke her and everyone else out of their trance as the reassuring voice of Hidden Blade spoke out. ”Everyone, don't fear these beast's for now. I have used a Magical Talisman that makes the surrounding area undetectable to any beast below the Sky Realm!”
A collective breath of relief sounded out of the various Magician's as some of them took another fearful gaze at the passing by monolith of a beast passing by. While these Thunder Scaled Half-Dragon's were still below the sky realm and only at the Major Transcendence Rank, they were still at the tip of the iceberg of the Magical Beast's at that stage. Aided by their tough bodies and being in a collective group with other's of their kind, the threat these Magical Beast's posed was not light. Especially when you consider that their leader, the Queen was a Magical Beast of the Sky Realm!
”And don't worry about the Queen. The Queen usually spends most of her time in cultivation or in pregnancy, she won't have the time to trouble us!” Hidden Blade said with a smirk full of confidence, reigniting the morale of many of the gathering Magician's.
