Chapter 148 148 High Level Beast

"I told you that is the last question I'm going to answer, I have all day as long as I kill you guys, but I'm bored so I'm going to kill you now"

"I would love to see you try, ready knights" Authur shouted.

"Yes, get ready to die" the beast shouted and stomped its foot on the ground, immediately the ground began to freeze slightly.

"Gabriel, Leia protect Ray and move away," Authur said

The three knights held their swords and took a fighting stance, they could see ice forming all around the beast but it was harmless.

"Now" the beast shouted and stomped his legs again, but this time a large chunk of ice formed from the ground and extended toward the knights.

The senior knights quickly jumped sideways to avoid the ice but it didn't stop.

"The students" Alfred shouted.

The beast's main aim wasn't to attack the senior knights but the students who moved far away from the battle.

The ice generated from the ground and extended towards the three students, the three of them stood still as the ice came towards them.

"No..." Authur shouted.

Immediately the three of them fell to the ground, the ice shot through an empty space, and collided with one of the houses.

When the three of them stood still Ray used his hands to push Gabriel out of the way, and he grabbed Leia and they both fell to the ground.

"Wow, your students have nice reflexes," the beast said.

"Aarrgh" Ray shouted as both of his hands screamed in pain.

"Ray are you okay" Leia quickly tried to help Ray up.

The ice had created a wall between them and Gabriel, and for the senior knights, Authur and James were together while Alfred had been separated by the ice.

"I'm fine, are you okay?" Ray asked.

"Yes thanks to you, I couldn't even move an inch and I'm supposed to protect you, I'm sorry," Leia said.

"That's not a problem, what about Gabriel?"

That was when Leia looked and saw the wall of ice that was erected with no way to contact Gabriel.

"You bastard" Authur and James rushed towards the beast.

"You guys have no chance of winning, even the weather is in my favor," the beast said.

Alfred on the other side of the ice saw that Gabriel was okay, Alfred quickly rushed towards the beast.

Authur and James quickly rushed towards the beast, they got there before Alfred.

The beast didn't even move an inch, it stood there despite seeing the senior knights coming closer.

Authur slashed his sword toward the beast's neck from the right side, and James also did the same from the left side, they wanted to end the battle in one strike, but the beast was stronger than that.

*Boom!*

As both of their swords landed on the beast's neck a chunk of ice broke off and their swords were stuck on the neck of the beast.

The beast had erected a block of powerful ice to protect its neck from their swords. Authur and James struggled to remove their swords but the beast punched both of them and they jumped backward to avoid it.

"Both of your swords are now useless, the ice on it is so powerful that even if you hit it on a rock it won't break," the beast said.

Authur and James looked at their swords, the sharp edge of both of their swords were covered with ice in the process of attacking the beast.

Authur and James held their swords tightly and immediately the ice began to melt off, their swords began so hot that the ice was immediately turned to water despite the cold weather.

"W-What! so you have a trick up your sleeves, no wonder you guys are fearless"

*Swoosh*

The beast bent down to dodge an attack, it happened so fast that Alfred didn't expect the beast to react quickly.

"Tsk! lucky you," Alfred said and stood up from the ground.

When the beast was busy talking Alfred used Ki to increase his speed and rushed towards the beast but still, the beast reacted fast enough to dodge it.

"It seems I'm giving you guys false hope because I'm not fighting seriously, let's get serious I'm also a fighter like you guys," the beast said.

Best

The beast stretched both of its arms sideways and two shapeless swords formed from both of his hands, and ice formed a mask on the beast's face covering its whole face and leaving only its eyes.

"The battle is finally serious," Authur said.

The swords of the three senior knights were emitting enough heat that it was visible to the eyes.

*Boom*

Leia and Gabriel finally broke through the ice after slashing it repeatedly from both sides.

"Are you okay?" Gabriel asked.

"Yes we are fine, but Ray's hands are not okay, it seems he injured them when saving us," Leia said.

"I'm sorry, we are supposed to be protecting you" Gabriel apologized.

"No problem, we have to move forward," Ray said.

"Move forward...to where, the senior knights would take care of the beast we have to believe them," Leia said.

"I'm not talking about the senior knights, there is another enemy around, a mage who was sent," Ray said.

"A mage is with the enemy!" Leia asked surprised.

"No, a mage killed the real mage and used a Transformation spell and called the senior knights here so they would be killed" Gabriel explained to her.

"What..."

"So we have to find the mage, I know he's around here somewhere, and this is the only chance we have, if the senior knights defeat the beast they would be too exhausted to fight the mage," Ray said.

"You are right, we have to keep moving, and this time we would protect you," Gabriel and Leia said in confidence.
