Chapter 707: Forever Imprinted
A fiery explosion rocked the entire snow land as Zeras immediately appeared before Felicie, standing in the way of the flaming projectile that was sent towards her.
It crashed with horrific power at his spine, pushing him forward, but at the same time, he wrapped around her like a ball, as he roughly crashed onto the ground, cracks appearing with every impact before finally he came to a stop.
Unwrapping himself, his eyes tearing through the smoke and steam of the explosion, he finally spotted the group responsible.
“They try to kill Felicie first, knowing well she is most likely the weakest.
With her out of the way, then they’ll have time to deal with me, whose mental state would most likely have crashed and make me more prone to falling.
They’re at least intelligent, that’s for sure,” Zeras analyzed with furrowed eyebrows as Felicie finally opened her eyes, wiping away the strange golden blood on her face.
“Are you okay?” she asked worriedly as she turned to look at Zeras, who was staring gravely into the distance. Slowly she too could finally see the people that came out of the smoke.
A group of about a couple dozen three-meter-tall humans, holding strange flaming crossbows in their hands and dressed in strange animal skin.
With one gaze, Zeras could tell they were definitely not otherworlders and most likely aboriginals.
But he dared not underestimate them at all as he could still feel the scorching pain from his back where one of their arrows had crashed into.
If he was to take all of their currently loaded flaming arrows without blocking, then he would be forced to a single knee quickly.
“Stay back, Felicie, and whatever happens, don’t move an inch,” Zeras warned gravely as his hand inched towards his katana but his hands were grabbed at the last second by none other than Felicie, and Zeras looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
‘Just what the hell are you doing this time?’ Zeras thought within his head.
“Don’t worry, they’re not enemies,” she said to him as Zeras furrowed his eyebrows at the group who all still had their arrows aimed at them, as if waiting for the signal.
“I’m not so sure of that.”
“Naragia Muraillas!” Felicie suddenly screamed at them from afar as Zeras noticed a visible emotional change in them. The most prominent of all being shock.
Slowly, Felicie got on a single knee before spreading both arms apart in a weird greeting position.
“Rouiritay Ro Mua!” they roared back, their voices husky and thick with murderous aura as they all looked at Zeras.
Felicie turned to look at Zeras who just happened to also turn to her, as he couldn’t hear a single thing about what they were saying.
“They are not our enemies. They are Murilas warriors, part of the people living in this world. But their base is in this place. I’ve heard about them from their uncle.”
“What do they want?” Zeras asked, noting how they were staring hard at him.
“They want you to pay your respect. It will show to them you’re not an enemy that is to be feared, and they’ll welcome our presence,” Felicie said as Zeras turned to look at the people before a loud scoff broke out of his mouth and then…
SHRIIIIIIIING
The sound of a katana leaving its sheath rang out as Zeras pointed his katana towards them, his back as straight as ever.
“Tell them I bow to none. Especially not bastards who tried to end one of my own in a sneak attack!” Zeras replied to Felicie, his unflinching gaze roughly clashing with those of the aboriginals.
He was more than sure that if he had not quickly sensed that arrow and blocked it, then Felicie would have exploded to bits!
While she might be stupidly naive to believe they are still not enemies, he wasn’t the same.
They wouldn’t ask him to kneel before them after just trying to kill him.
Just as Zeras replied, Felicie returned back his same answer as all of the aboriginals pointed their arrows away from Felicie and directly onto Zeras. It was more than clear, they were now focusing on him alone and have recognized their enemies.
“Once you hear the sound of an arrow leaving its sheath, then just close your eyes to protect their innocence, Felicie,” Zeras’s calm voice rang out as he slowly took a single step forward preparing to shoot forward and bring an end to the madness.
“Just wait, Zeras. They’re not at all harmful. They are just protecting their ground sanctuar…”
SOOOOOOOAAAAR
The sound of an arrow soaring through the air resounded as an arrow soared forward with speed, flashing towards Felicie’s forehead but was stopped at the last second as a hand grabbed onto it, stopping the arrow just an inch from drilling a hole through Felicie’s eyebrows.
“You tried your best, Felicie, now close your eyes,” the voice was the last Felicie heard before an incredibly loud explosion, one extremely deafening to the ear, resounded through the entire area followed by red blood spraying through the air and body parts flying around…
“AHHHHHHH”
Spine-chilling screams, one that could have only come from going through the most horrific pain, echoed through the midst of the explosion as flaming destructive arrows weaved through the air yet they were all severed into by a silvery white ghost, who whipped through their explosion with his body, the cold white sword flashing through the air with ferocious speed, and with every slash came the inhuman screams…
Less than 5 minutes later, the sound of clashing dissipated followed by a single halo appearing through the smoke blocking the air.
Finally exiting, the picture was more than clear to Felicie as it was none other than Zeras.
Except this time, he looked like he had just taken a good beating.
But as the smoke behind him died down, she collapsed onto her butt in fear as she saw the inhumane scene that made her hand cover her mouth and her eyes shut tightly.
In the next instant, she found herself in his arms and then the air rapidly flapped as the entire world flashed by her with speed. Still, she could really never forget the scene until her death…
