I Killed The Main Characters

Chapter 26: First Act: Bloodbound Summoning [4]

'Even for a skilled summoner like him he is short on mana levels...'

Rylan thought.

So it was his chance to strike as he now pinned the rogue student to the ground.

"Where are the missing students?"

Rylan chose to ask only to be left with a grin and no answer.

The rogue srudent had nothing to loose so he just pointed at the top of the Starlight Manor(girl's dorm) and said, "There's no way the two of you are going to make it all the way there...it's already too late..."

Whilst laughing, a red beam shot from the Starlight manor into the night sky.

Everyone that was in the school grounds was able to see it.

It was almost impossible not to notice it.

Rylan just clenched his teeth and ran the blade through the rogue student's neck.

Its breathing was momentarily stopped.

Rylan was able to take a glance of a red glow from the rogue students forehead.

He brushed what was left of his hair revealing a line that was designed with what seemed to be runic symbols that dissipated.

The mark dissappeared like ashes in the wind as the body's original state was reverted.

Apart from not being hideous the dead body was normal although the damages remained.

Ryaln didn't feel remorse of any sort as he hurried to help Xander.

But when he got there, the rest of the skeletons blew up into green smoke and completely dissappeared.

"Is that the last of them?"

Rylan asked.

Xander instantly appeared next to Rylan his fists letting off smoke.

"I think so..."

Xander replied his eyes still glowing blue.

"Come on no time to waste we must head up to the top of the Starlight Manor..."

Rylan stated.

"The girls dormitories?..."

Xander exclaimed.

"It doesn't matter dipshit come on..."

Rylan said as they rushed towards starlight manor.

'By now...Rylan and Xander should have been done with the mid-level boss and the undead summons...

If I'm correct they should be at the top now...'

Noah thought then continued.

'Meaning Xander already saved Amy and all the five of the main characters are now subjugating the final boss at the top of Starlight manor...'

Noah thought as he climbed the stairs.

He and Maya who was next to him had made their way to Starlight manor.

'As the Blessed Sage and head of the First-year student council I must be present...'

'That was what I told Maya to drive away and sort of suspicions of me leaving the Silverfang Manor...'

Noah thought.

For now all that mattered was the story progressing perfectly than he had thought.

He was actually impressed and taken aback.

Noah and Maya took a corner where they found Xander and Rylan and by the looks of it Xander was hurt.

There was one more person with them...

Ariana Snow.

She was taking care of Xander and trying to heal him.

Noah rushed forward only to find Xander's stomach bleeding.

His eyes widened.

'...why is Ariana here...she should be at the top and same goes for Xander and Rylan.'

Noah then looked around and the realization hit him hard.

"Where is Amy?"

Noah asked.

Maya had moved next to Ariana to help her heal Xander.

Rylan was the one to answer Noah.

"By the time we got here...we found Amy being taken forcefully..."

"Her guard and assistant were knocked out...and maids from Moonlight Hall weren't able to get into Starlight Manor because of the barrier."

Rylan paused to make sure Noah had it all.

"We tried fighting the rogue students who were taking her but Xander got caught off guard...

When we got to him the rogues had taken Amy to the top..."

Rylan concluded.

"And you didn't go after her?"

Noah snapped.

He was frustrated, things were heading in a completely different route than he had expected.

All because Xander got hurt, he wasn't going to be able to save Amy.

Noah then looked at the barrier leading to the top stairs.

It flickered and he immediately jumped through it.

The protection magic that was messed with and tweaked had the barriers go off and on at intervals and he saw the opportunity to go through.

Each door and entrance including the stairs to a different floor had a barrier.

And the next time the barriers would go off again was in 30 minutes.

If he hadn't jumped then they would be stuck at that floor for 30 minutes.

By the time the barrier went off again it would be too late.

Amy would've been killed and sacrificed by then.

"Wait here for 30 minutes...when the barrier flickers again, jump through...all of you and head to the top..."

Noah stated to the others.

"And what about you...?"

Ariana asked.

"Since I'm the only one through the barrier to the top, I'll have to rescue Amy myself..."

Noah replied.

They didn't ask anything else as they watched Noah bolt up the remaining stairs to the top.

Maya had rushed but was stopped by the barrier.

All she could do was watch and hope that Noah will be okay.

***

"...Shit, shit, SHIT!"

Noah shouted as he bolted up the stairs taking off his black blazer.

"Everything is going wrong...it's up to me to save Amy for now..."

"If Amy dies, then he won't appear and the storyline will be completely screwed..."

"Without the TRUE PROTAGONIST...the entire game world will collapse!"
