Chapter 431

Chapter 431: Not in the same league.

Inside the angelic domain was a volcanic world with scorching rocks and magma as its ground.

The angel abductor knew that if she took her eyes off Rayzer even for a millisecond she would lose her life. So she didn’t bother stopping Blake from warping Brian to his side.

In a matter of seconds, her lightning and wind mana fusion spell, heaven’s call was ready, but before she could release the angel tier spell she exploded into a shower of blood.

“What the fuck just happened?” Blake and Brian were stunned by the event that just took place.

This was a battle between angels so they had been expecting a lot of explosions, but instead, it had all ended in less than 3 minutes.

“Even if we are on the same level, they always keep forgetting that Royal knights are not in the same league as normal people.” Rayzer scoffed as he deactivated his volcanic domain.

People weren’t recruited to be royal knights just because they were in the angelic realm. It was because they were one of the bests in certain fields of magic.

.....

That was why he hadn’t bothered about moving from the start of the one-sided beatdown.

“Thanks for the help, but I thought Luciano said it would take some time for a royal knight to get here?” Blake asked.

“Yes, that was because he has no clue that I have been following you.” Rayzer said.

“Wait, you have been following me?” Blake asked with a shocked and confused tone.

“Your facial expressions are always the best.” Rayzer chuckled.

“Always the best?” At this point, Blake was freaking out.

“Relax, it’s not as if I stalk you all the time, I do have other things to do.” Rayzer said as he wiped the tear on his left cheek.

“I guess that isn’t an explanation.” Rayzer said as he saw that Blake was even more confused.

“On the day that you 3 were sent to the magic school, I was tasked by Prince Bryon to protect you.”

“So for 3 years, I have been watching over you, especially during tests, exams, adventurer association missions and even normal strolls out of the school environment.” Rayzer explained.

“So you know about me having the space element?” Blake asked.

“Yes.” Rayzer said without a change in expression.

“Not to look ungrateful for saving me, but if you were following Blake since we got admitted to the magic school that means you followed us into Azkelwart’s base?” Brian asked.

“No, I didn’t follow you all into the base because the artifact controlling the base didn’t want me to enter. It just warped me to a different part of the Bulian hills while you guys entered the base.”

“Also, if I had joined you guys I would also need someone to save me because the golems and defensive arrays would kill me.” Rayzer said confusing both of them.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Blake and Brian couldn’t help but wonder if it were the same golems they had defeated that he was talking about.

Seeing their confused expressions, Rayzer explained to them how fury (the artifact in control of Azkelwart’s base) was sentient and how they were manipulated to awaken Azkelwart.

“Wow” Blake and Brian muttered as everything began making sense.

“Last question, why did you decide to tell us this now?” Blake couldn’t help but ask.

“That’s because Prince Bryon didn’t want you to relax, also the protection will be ending after the regional competition is over.” Rayzer replied.

“let me guess, I would have helped him achieve a goal.” Blake said.

“It’s not like that. Not only is a lot of resources and manpower being wasted by having me protect you, but we have no clue of where your allegiance is.” Rayzer muttered as he didn’t want Blake to feel he has outlived his purpose and is to get dumped.

“I understand, it was a very nice exchange.” Blake said with no hard feelings.

“So... What next?” Blake couldn’t help but ask.

“You guys should return and stay in the hotel, while I go back into hiding.” Rayzer said as the environment around him distorted for a brief second before he disappeared.

“Let’s get the hell out of here before they send someone else after us.” Blake said as they exited the warehouse and boarded a carriage back to the Golden seal hotel.

...

“What a day.” Blake let out a sigh as they stepped out of the warp array room.

“You guys are back already?” Blake couldn’t help but ask when he saw Castiel, Luciano, Damon, Tessie and Camilla standing in front of his door.

“Would you continue to stay at the amusement park when you hear that your friend has been kidnapped?” Damon asked with a raised brow.

“You have a...” Before Blake could reply both Tessie and Camilla hugged him.

Brian was about to complain but that was when Castiel and Luciano hugged him.

“So what happened? Did you guys sustain any damages?” Damon who was the only person that wasn’t in any embrace asked.

“When I was on the carousel, I just blacked out and found myself in an abandoned warehouse. A few minutes later Blake entered.

“To keep things short, a royal knight appeared when I was about to get killed. As for injuries, we are okay, we just need some rest.” Blake said.

“Ahm I said we just need some rest.” Blake repeated himself in a louder tone, causing Tessie and Camilla to snap out of their reverie and let him go.

“I will see you guys at dinner, I have to freshen up and rest.” Blake said as he unlocked his door and entered.

“I guess I will also see you guys at dinner.” Damon said as he headed to his room.

On entering his room, Damon pulled out his golden communication amulet and called his Dad.
