Chapter 459 The Darkness (4)

"Stop! I yelled at the man.

The man stopped in his tracks and turned back to look at us.

"Oh, look at that." The man smirked sinisterly. "It looks like the descendant of my sworn enemy is right here before me."

I was confused as to what the one as talking about.

"Oh, dear me, I have not introduced myself completely." The man said. "My name has not been uttered since the ancient times actually, so I do not now if you would know me. My name is Moldred, lieutenant to 'The Dark One' or 'The Dark Lord' as my master is known in ancient times."

The man named Moldred was introducing himself with a smile, as if he were to be a friend of mine.

"Hmm, judging by your familiar there, you are not a normal descendant." Moldred said. "You seem to be quite powerful as well. Why don't we assess our capabilities." He flicked his hand our way.

"Alicia, get behind me!" Snow yelled.

I hid behind Snow and a huge wave of darkness blew our way. Snow used her powers to shield us from the bout of darkness.

"Ohhh… like I thought." Moldred said. "As I have thought, your pet there is a sacred beast that serves our sworn enemy. It was able to block may attack."

"Who are you calling a pet?!" Snow roared in anger.

"Oh, a feisty one." Moldred said. "Hmm, well it looks like I could not go do what I have came here for without taking care of you, so let us get this over with. I do not have that much time. Let us play, kitty cat."

"Why you…!!!" Snow was enraged on how Moldred was treating her like a pet animal.

Snow bared her fangs and claws and jumped towards Moldred. I expected that Snow would overpower him because the size difference, but I was wrong. I was surprised that Snow was thrown to the side like a toy with slap from Moldred.

"Snow!" I yelled in worry.

But Snow was able to get up in no time. She sprung up again and started to circle around Moldred. Moldred on the other hand was unfazed and was smiling as if it was interesting.

"Oh, it feels like a predator stalking its prey." Moldred said. "I'm scared." He said mockingly.

Snow then charged once again but this time she used her ice breath. She fired her ice breath towards Moldred who did not even evade the attack.

The ice breath had hit Moldred, but darkness enveloped him complete. After Snow's ice breath finished, Moldred emerged from the darkness that enveloped him unscathed.

"It that all?" Moldred said with a sinister smile. "It is my turn then."

Moldred waved his hand and the darkness followed. It swirled around Moldred's body until he pointed towards Snow. The darkness followed the direction of his hand movement and attacked Snow.

Snow dodged the first attack and Moldred made a circular hand gesture and the darkness turned back. it had hit Snow from behind and she was thrown with such a huge force. She came tumbling down the frozen river surface until she hit the frozen water pillar.

"Snow!!!" I yelled in shock.

I ran towards where she was in haste. When I arrived, I saw her laying down unconscious. I saw some scratches and blood on her body.

"Snow… Snow!" I called out to her, but she was out cold.

Thankfully, I can see that she was still breathing.

"Oh, Snow…" I thanked the heavens that she was still alive.

"Well, that is that then." Moldred said while wiping his clothes. "Let us get going then." He turned around and walked towards the direction of the Forger manor.

"You…" I said feeling anger building up inside me. "I will not forgive you!!!" I shouted.

A gust of freezing air blew Moldred's way. He stopped in his tracks and raised his hand to look at it.

"What the…" Moldred said. His hand was starting to freeze. He looked at me seriously. "I should have dealt with you sooner."

Moldred vanished in an instant in a blink an eye. At the next second he was in front of me, and just like that I felt my whole body fly into the air.

I landed into the ground and felt excruciating pain in my gut.

"*cough cough*" I coughed out some blood.

"I should deal with you first before going to the chosen one." Moldred said.

Moldred walked towards me. I was on my knees trying to stand up. I knew I need to do something before Moldred gets to me. I conjured ice spears and let them fly his way. He used his bear hand to parry some of the ice spears and use his darkness to parry the others.

"You are too dangerous to my master if you are kept alive." Moldred said.

Moldred flicked his hand towards me, and the darkness followed. I used my magic powers to block its advance. My ice magic and his darkness collided, and it negated each other.

"This will not do." Moldred looked at me.

In an instant he was standing above me. At that moment I felt my neck being squeezed tightly. My feet were hanging in the air, and I was having a tough time breathing.

"You must die here now." Moldred said in looking into my face.

I struggled hard to escape from his clutches but to no avail. I held his arm that was holding my neck. I focused my all of my energy on it. The temperature dropped around us, and his arm started to freeze.

"What the…" Moldred was surprised. He was not able to move because ice started to creep up from his feet. He was frozen in place.

I used all of my strength to loosen the frozen grip on my neck. I was able to get away and I slumped down the ground and coughed hard. I was able to breath easily once again. The ice was slowly enveloping Moldred's frozen body.

"You…" Moldred was slowly breaking away from being frozen in place.

"ALICIA!" Regaleon called out.

20:42

I looked up and saw him riding Tempest.

"Get away!" Regaleon said.

I quickly scrambled out of the way quickly even when I am crawling. When I was at a good distance, I heard Regaleon yell.

"BURN YOY PIECE OF TRASH!!!" Regaleon said.

Explosive fire balls rained down where Moldred was. The explosions were intense, and the fire was burning profusely.

"Another one of you has appeared I see." I heard Moldred said. His body was heavily burning. "This body is already burning, and my time has been spent. I have failed my mission here. But no worries, there will be another time. See you again, descendants of our enemy."

Fire engulfed every inch of his body until I could not see it anymore.
