Chapter 668 Guidance
Chapter 668 Guidance
While everyone is surprised and panicked at the sudden monster-minded revelation, the Stonakin clashes with Angus and the guard dwarf a few times. Unlike Angus, who could effortlessly dodge or parry his attack, the Dwarf guard kept their distance while surrounding him with worry.
It is not that they do not want to fight against the Stonakin. It is because they are worried about getting hit by a potent miasma attack.
Looking at the dark-colored miasma, they know the monster-minded Stonakin has a very potent miasma comparable to Monster Overlord. This miasma could kill ordinary high-grade combatants in seconds if they get a direct hit.
Even if they have Miasma Antidote, it will be useless since they would die before being able to use it or consume it. As a result, unless they were certain to dodge or parry the Stonakin's attack, they couldn't approach him carelessly.
The Dwarf is famous for their physical strength and resistance. But, it is still not enough to completely withstand the potent miasma. On the other hand, Angus is very agile and can predict every move the monster Stonakin makes.
In fact, Angus could apprehend the Stonakin or even heavily injure him. However, he also knows that Stonakin is not seriously fighting back. He could see the Stonakin just playing around with them.
At this moment, Anna, who is staying near Mira, suddenly becomes excited and smiles happily.
"Yay!! Fight! Fight!! Anna wants to join." said Anna while jumping from the flying pillow towards Mini Porky.
"Anna!!" called Jayna in worry and ready to prevent her from joining the fight.
"Phew! Phew!!" said Anna while grabbing the Mini Pork's ear.
Suddenly, the Mini Pork shoots piglets from its big nose toward the Stonakin at a fast speed. Facing the incoming piglets, the Stonakin just waved his claw hand and burst the piglet like a bubble.
"What the fuck!! Did it shoot porky?! Damn… It burst like a bubble!! Hahaha…" laughed the Stonakin maniacally.
"That's Mini Bubble Porky!!" answered Anna loudly from behind.
"Mini Bubble Porky?! That's a good name!! Hahaha…" laughed the Stonkin while dodging the nearby attack.
"This is so hilarious and fun. Unfortunately, my time to play has ended." said the Stonakin.
Hearing this, everyone becomes more vigilant toward the monster Stonakin. The Stonakin's hard rock body releases a black sparkle to the surrounding area.
The whole area suddenly turns colder and a person holding a big staff approaches the monster Stonakin [Frozen Staff Art - Cold Pass]. The person is none other than Hayden, the leader of the newly made Antric kingdom.
Just as the chilly cold staff almost touches the monster Stonakin, his body suddenly becomes slightly distorted [Phantasm Arms]. *BOOOOM* The whole area exploded, leaving only a block of gigantic ice.
However, they could no longer see the monster-minded Stonakin. Even Hayden is also confused in such a situation. He feels his attack hit something but also nothing at the same thing. It is like trying to punch a person inside the deep water.
Still, one thing is sure the monster-minded Stonakin somehow escapes his attack. After retracting his half-frozen ice easily, he begins to glance at Anna. Just before he wants to attack Anna, he feels tremendous killing intent from various locations, especially from Angus.
"I suggest you don't try anything funny." said Angus.
At the same time, the whole area suddenly turned warmer and was covered with mist from the gigantic ice.
"Brat, don't you see? She is the source of the problem." said Hayden.
"Err… Gentlemen, please calm yourself." said the nearby dwarf captain.
Before anyone could say anything, "Eyes." said Mira shortly.
*Swish* *Splatt* "Arrrghhh!!!" screamed Hayden.
Suddenly, Hayden screamed in pain while his eyes were covered in blood.
On the other hand, Darren appeared before Mira while kneeling and holding two bloody eyes in his hand.
'Fast!!' thought everyone.
'Did Master Darren become stronger?!' thought Angus inwardly.
"Master, these are the eyes you want." Darren offered Hayden's eyes.
Mira didn't reply and only glanced at Anna.
"Anna doesn't want it. It is too cold. Anna likes cool and warm, not cold. But the chilly thing is fine." commented Anna casually, like picking food.
Mira didn't reply, only nodding slightly before waving her hand. This time Lenora suddenly screamed in pain while holding her eyes. She feels like her eyes are being stabbed by a needle. Fortunately, the pain is only momentary.
After a few seconds, the pain disappeared, leaving only watered eyes. When Lenora opened her eyes the next moment, she felt something strange but couldn't completely apprehend it.
"Relax… Don't force yourself. You need a lot of time to get used to your new magic eyes." advised Darren from the side.
"M-Magic eyes?! Y-Yes, sir. T-Thank you Master, for such a gift." replied Lenora nervously.
Everyone was also surprised at the sudden development. Most of the people here know how rare magic eyes are. Even the weakest magic eyes could boost their combat prowess a lot. They didn't expect Hayden to actually have magic eyes robbed by Mira.
However, no one said anything or pitied Hayden. Although the commotion is caused by a monster-minded person, he should not try to antagonize Anna while Mira is beside her. It is already fortunate that Mira didn't take his life at this moment.
Unbeknownst to everyone, Hayden actually didn't have magic eyes. The Magic Eyes on Lenora occur because of Mira's action. Still, no one tried to clarify this situation.
Moreover, Hayden also already runs away after getting his eyes robbed. The moment he loses his eyes, he knows he somehow provoked someone dangerous. His cruel experience in the Endless Battlefield teaches him this person should be avoided at all costs.
Still, this makes everyone think Hayden has Magic Eyes. Some passersby who did not run away from the area also heard this news. Hayden will not know that his blunder will cause him a lot of trouble in the future.
Without his eyes, his combat prowess will definitely lower at certain periods. Since he is speculated to have Magic Eyes, it will also attract many mad scientists who search for power.
Although making artificial Magic Eyes is almost impossible and more like gambling, it could still be done through many difficult and complex processes. There is nothing impossible in this world. Everything could be done as long as someone is ready to pay the price.
Moreover, this news will attract more people as they witness the power of Lenora's new magic eyes.
"Err… If there is nothing else, we will excuse first." said the Dwarf Captain as he didn't want to be near Mira and Darren any second.
Angus and the others also stayed no longer and moved towards their inn. At this moment, no one notices or cares about the Medral's group corpse on the ground.
"Hmph!! Anna didn't even get a stretch." grumbled Anna while riding mini porky.
Not wanting for her to create more trouble, "Anna, look at roasted beef!!" said Angus while pointing to roasted beef stands not far from them.
"Meat!! Mira, hurry!!" said Anna, completely forgetting her previous words.
"Hohoho… It must be tough to take care of Lady Anna." commented Darren from the side.
"Yes. Anyway, Master Darren. Did you feel something weird about this place?" asked Angus.
"Weird? Did you mean someone or something blocked Fate?" asked Darren.
"Yes. Did you know what kind of thing can do it?" asked Angus.
"Thing? It seems Young Baron Angus already does his own research before we arrive. Since it is an item, it should not be too dangerous. It probably only works briefly and only impairs basic Fate reading and instinct." said Darren.
"Nothing dangerous? Are you certain of it?" asked Angus.
"Yes. A thing that could block fate has a certain limit of use. Basically, it didn't have too many uses. Otherwise, those barbaric monster people will destroy it along with this place." said Darren.
"Hmm??" asked Angus
"Ohh… It seems you are still unable to fully translate the book. Hohoho… Don't worry, you will know about it later. As for this item, you don't need to worry about it." said Darren.
"Erghh… Fine." replied Angus with a resigned tone.
"However, you need to worry about the user. Since he used such a rare item, he must be doing something dangerous. It is possible that his actions may affect the whole world or more. Such action may bring destruction but also benefit the world." added Darren.
"Should we stop him?" asked Angus directly.
"Judging from your tone, you must somehow know the user, but you don't know his true intention." said Darren.
Angus didn't reply and gave a silent nod solemnly.
"Hm… Say, Young Baron Angus. If you find a baby that may destroy the world and kill your beloved one, will you kill it on the spot or let it go?" asked Darren cryptically.
Hearing this, Angus could only release a sigh. He knows there is no real answer to this kind of question. Even if he kills this baby, there is no guarantee a person like the baby will replace him and create a worse situation.
"I guess I will only wait for what will happen later." said Angus resignedly.
"Wise choice, Young Baron Angus. Sometimes you need to wait for the others before you can grow more." replied Darren.
