Chapter 326 A Wyvern Attack!
Chapter 326 A Wyvern Attack!
-----
CLAAASH!
The door was sent flying across the sky, as I quickly roared to everybody to get out immediately, only to be greeted by the neighboring two other houses being set ablaze by the deadly Fire Breath of the Wyvern.
"GROAR!"
The Wyvern was flying in circles around the village, constantly roaring and looking down, as if it was looking for something in specific. The people in the village was panicking, a monster as strong as a Wyvern that could even fly was a threat nobody here could even fight against properly.
"RUN!" I roared, quickly telling the people to run outside the house.
"Go to the forest!" My father quickly caught up to everything without panicking as much. My mother was a top priority due to her pregnancy, if she inhaled the deadly smoke produced by burning wood, the children in her womb might be endangered.
"Joan, what is happening?!" My mother began crying desperately. Thankfully we had left grandma at home, the wyvern was attacking this side of the village, so the rest seemed untouched yet.
"A Wyvern descended from the mountains!" My father roared, the people that ran outside the burning building quickly grew even more panicked as they saw the enormous reptilian beast fly across the skies, despair clear in their eyes. "Mary, run to the forest, there's less monsters now and they don't approach big groups of people, it is a good hiding spot!"
"The Wyvern doesn't seem to be attacking people out of hunger, it is looking for something!" I said, pointing at the beast who had not even bathed an eye on us yet.
"AGATHA!!!"
Once more, as I saw everybody run outside, I heard the crying scream of the Duke inside the burning building, as two knights were left incapacitated and were quickly being set ablaze by the fire nearby.
"Shit, the Duke's in danger! Where's the chief too?!" Asked Chris father, running to our side, seemingly willing to help.
"I'm staying here! I'll go help!" I roared, quickly summoning ten F Rank Fenrir and Orcus, and leaving half of them for the people running away. "They'll protect all of you, stay in the forest!"
"B-But Blake!!!" My mother cried, as I quickly ignored her. Chris' mother suddenly grabbed her and dragged her away, the woman was surprisingly strong physically.
Seeing my mother go off, the next task was obviously rescuing the Duke.
FLUOOSH!
"S-Shit, these flames are not normal!" My father cried, seeing the flames quickly spread out furiously.
"We have to somehow get in! Most people got out but those near the Duke are probably about to kick the bucket!" Chris father, named Halberd, spoke.
Meanwhile, I heard Erika telling her father to go away while she could stay here.
"No! You're coming with me, Erika! Fire is dangerous for your body!" Her father screamed, trying to convince.
"But I want to help Blake!" Erika cried.
"Enough!" I roared. "Erika, stay put and don't get near the flames! I am going in!" I said, quickly stepping into the fire.
"Wait, Blake!" My father grabbed me by my shirt and quickly dragged me back outside.
"What are you doing?!" He roared back at me.
"Sigh, you're always so cautious, father." I sighed, maintaining my calm in this desperate situation.
I quickly summoned Eleanora outside and decided to conjure a spell with her, this was a Tier 2 Water Attribute Spell named [Aqua Bubble] it created a bubble of water around a target, making them resistant to flames in exchange for making them weak to ice and lightning element.
"W-What is this?!" My father asked.
"I can only cast this a few times, all of you go inside, let's bring them all out!" I roared, quickly entering the blazing hall once more, I had already tried to splash water everywhere, but I lacked enough MP to waste it all into conjuring a torrent of water big enough to completely set off this inferno, this entire house was coming down soon as well.
"AGATHA- Akh!"
I quickly reached the Duke, grabbing him and running outside.
"Stop! STOP! My wife and my daughters!" The Duke cried like a child.
"Don't worry, they're also being dragged outside!" I said, as the Duke noticed my father, Halberd, and Eleanora holding three other figures. Chris's father was enormous and tall, big enough to hold two girls with his two big arms, meanwhile, Eleanora brought the Duke's Wife outside.
"A-Ah…! My wife!" The Duke slowly crawled towards his wife, who was unconscious.
While this happened, we quickly ran inside again, helping the knights, the chief, and his family to run outside. Two knights were already dead, but Lukas and the tall knight had survived alongside another one that was still breathing. After everybody was outside, I quickly splashed water over them through the power of Moby, whose Water Splash was also able to generate a bit of refreshing water. This buff would be good as well to help them run away, which I've also splashed over the group of people running into the forest.
"We somehow made it…!" My father said, seconds before the entire house of the chief crumbled down into an explosion of flames and dust. The Wyvern was still circling the skies with a menacing glare.
BOOOM!
"Duke! Are you alright?!" The chief ran towards the Lord of the Fiefdom, who seemed okay.
However, his wife seemed to be at death's door. I had checked her beforehand and she had a contusion in her head. The priests had managed to run away and had quickly come to help after leading the people into a safe area of the forest.
"Let me handle this!" The Old Ellergest said, his face filled with concern about the many dangers of the Wyvern getting into our village.
FLASH!
A flash of bright light bathed the Duke's wife, quickly healing her visible wounds, but she still seemed unconscious and barely breathing. Why?!
"GROOARRR!"
Meanwhile, the Wyvern suddenly noticed us.
