Chapter 99 by SmallestStories SmallestStories

Ready, set, action !

And one fight scene !

You were the one to take the first step, penetrating into the anti-magic area carefully, the both of your blades ready to strike if needed, as you felt your magic be locked away in your own body, which is not something you like to feel. Rei entered the are after you, keeping herself behind you, while she started almost immediately to prepare a spell.

It... Didn't take long for the man and the orc to attack you. Well, not at the same time at all, since the orc attacked first, aiming with his club for your head directly, but his attack was slow, and you had no trouble parrying it, before slashing at his side with your other sword.

There was already a problem : the guy was though, and despite slashing with quite a bit of strength, it felt like you hit a rock, and when that happens, there's something wrong somewhere. At least Rei was there to support you, as even though you didn't hear it, she had launched her spell. Quite the illusion, a giant worm crawling out of the earth, before jumping on the man, who dodged the attack. This also got the attention of the orc, who turned around to attack the worm.

And... The worm exploded, startling you and your three opponents at once, even though the orc didn't have much time to be startled, since he was hit directly by the explosion, sending him crashing against a tree, which in turn seemed to knock him out.

"Be wary, I won't be able to use much more powerful spells." Warned Fuyu, letting you know that she was the one who made the illusion explode.

When the smoke finally disappeared, you also saw what your foes were protecting from your sight : a vixen, probably Rei's mother, has she had the same hair color and seemingly the same type of body as Rei. Her and Fuyu also saw this, and you quickly had a feeling that it was better to end this fight quickly.

So you rushed to the man, starting a flurry of blows, unpredictable because of your fighting style, yet it seemed to be in vain, since your opponent parried easily each one of your blows, something that impressed you, before you narrowly dodged a fireball that was thrown at you by the demoness.

"Worthless human..." She then says, before rushing at you this time, to attack you with her staff, and when you noticed the blades along the tip of it, you thought that it wasn't a good idea to be hit by that. The issue was : the man also attacked you, so you ended up having to parry both of their attacks. Thankfully, it wasn't impossible with your two swords, but it was quite hard to do.

As you parried the attacks, slowly but surely getting overwhelmed, you saw, in the corner of your eye, Rei coming up behind the demoness, before whispering, low enough for neither the other human nor you to hear, but seemingly loud enough for the demoness to hear, since she froze in place the very moment Rei started whispering.

"Your friend is your real foe, you should fight the betrayer."

Before she casted another illusion, this time of you, while the demoness looked at her human ally, before screeching and casting a spell, its name saying all that you needed to know.

"Hellfire !" The demoness casted, before fire rained down upon her ally, making him stop his attacks against you and letting you step back, getting to the illusion's side to possibly have an advantage on your opponents.

You had the advantage for now... And it didn't last, as you heard a loud noise coming from Rei's side, before hearing Fuyu scream.

"Rei !"

When you looked at her, you saw her laying in the grass, ****, the orc towering over her with a nasty smile, while the illusion disappeared and the fire rain stopped, meaning that the demoness wasn't controlled anymore.

Your first reaction was to quickly get between the orc and Rei, even though you knew that you had no chance against him, since his skin was so hard.

"Adam, brace yourself !" You then heard Fuyu scream, and for a reason, as light started to accumulate around her, making you and your three foes look at her.

In a matter of seconds, the light around her became blinding, pulsating with what you could only describe as a lethal strength. She then raised her hand, her palm facing the sky, before saying.

"May Power rain down upon thy !"

You indeed could only brace yourself at this point.

That will surely leave a mark.
