Chapter 336 - Alice...
As soon Annie left the high ground, Alice showed a sign of awakening. Her closed eyes opened, showing a green pupil that reflected Desmond's smile.
"Good morning, sister," As she could feel warmth in his tone, her body suddenly became stiffened. Her beautiful cold face showed a slight discomfort for a moment before a forced smile was forming, gazing at her little brother with clear affection.
"M-Morning, brother," She replied in a weak tone; the moment she spoke, her face seemed to become withered as time went making Laura, who was seeing, shed a tear from the corner of her eyes.
Young lady Alice is so strong! She thought. Without Desmond's command, Laura began to put more effort into her healing spell, making the healing progress a little bit faster than before.
When Desmond noticed her, he just nodded and smiled before gently wiping out the bloodstains on Alice's body." Don't move, this will be a bit hurt," he spoke solemnly and then pulled out the longest chains that were planted in the deeper of her body.
Alice's face was twitched as she bore the sheer of pain with blood gushing out from the hole. Her forehead started to drop a sweat; her lively face slowly turned back into paled.
Desmond could not bear to see Alice's expression. He was using his full power to pull out the chain. The more he pulled, the more he was shocked by the length of the chains.
How did they manage to plant this in my sister?! Desmond muttered angrily on his mind. Previously he was determined to pay this debt off; however, now, it seems their punishment is too light.
Soon, the king ice bed had already changed color, with a pool of dark blood welling up and flowing to the ground. Even Alice, who was biting her lower lip, let out a small cry of agony.
"I-it's hurt, b-rtoher!" She could not help but hug and unconsciously planted her nails on Desmond's back, making his back bleeding.
Laura, on the side, was panicking, her energy already depleted up upon using the healing spells after a long time; she took the initiative by tearing her clothes and began helping Desmond by pressing the hole on Alice's body with the torn clothes.
Several minutes passed when Annie returned with some wolves on her shoulder; she was shocked to find Laura crying near the where should be king ice bed was but now has turned into completely dark red with the ground had many red puddles.
"Y-Young master," With a trembling voice, Annie spoke while looking at Desmond, who was staring at the pile of the ice with her young lady Alice inside of it.
There was blood hovering and becoming frozen along with her body; however, what made her heartache was her smile and soft gaze at Desmond before being frozen.
"Don't make the situation as she has died," Desmond stated, glaring at Laura, who kept sobbing with her tears mixed his sister's blood," I need time to heal her," he added, flicking his fingers, the entire ground trembled.
The ice mirror that was surrounding them broke into pieces and then turned back to white ball energy. At the same time, the higher ground slowly back descending downward, revealing many hostile gazes from those beasts.
After the spell had created something in this world, the created object would become part of the world, meaning it was permanent. However, Desmond was constantly repairing the higher ground structure and coating it with other elements, which made him hard to maintain a healing spell for his sister.
Laura and Annie immediately lay their body on the ground with their hand gripped to the earth. This was too sudden, and they have not prepared, but who would dare to refute when they saw the cold gaze from their young master.
To their surprise, young lady Alice's frozen body did not turn back into white energy; instead, her body still froze within the ice block; however, the size of the ice block had shrunk, enough for their young master to carry on his back.
"ROAR!"
On the other hand, Desmond looked at the several beasts that have a size large as trucks. Most of them were the beasts he knew, such as Dire Wolves and Husk Wolves, yet among them, he spotted one unfamiliar beast, who had an appearance similar to a wolf but with many large thorns glowing in blue like hedgehogs on its back.
Even though its size was smaller than the other wolves beasts, the look they gave at it seemingly looked of respect and fear. The strange wolf walked among them and arrived in front of him.
Instead of lust, anger, and full of killing intents, those strange wolf eyes gazed at him for a moment before looking at the rest of his group.
*growl*
"He feels disdain?" As if his guess right hit on the spot, the strange wolf gave him a snort. Desmond stood bravely facing the strange wolf that was two times taller than him, with his eyes glaring at it.
At the same time, the view he waited for finally appeared.
[
Race: Beasts
Species: Husk King

Suddenly before Desmond could finish reading the information, the so-called 'Husk King' beast pounced and jumped at him, baring its blue tooth that glowing every time.
*thumb*
A gush of blood flashed; instead of red, it was green blood that came from one of the sharp teeth of the Husk King. Its body flew several meters backward, hitting the other wolves.
"That's close," Shaking his hands that covered hardened earth, Desmond mimicked Gibson's spell. A deep cut mark on the hardened earth shaped the same as the Husk king's tooth.
*howl*
The Husk King howled, signaled the other wolves to attack him. The view where the wolves with the size big as truck charging at him made his maids tremble in fear.
Those who knew the power of one Husk king was equal to two 2nd class swordsmen. Coupled with many Dire and Husk wolves, it was impossible to win this battle unless there were a group of thirty people filled with 2nd class swordsmen.
"Young master!" However, they were not ungrateful servants. Annie immediately unsheathed her daggers, throwing at the eyes of those beasts while Laura was already chanting with her remaining energy.
"ROAR!" one of the beasts finally angered when Annie's dagger successfully hit its eyes. The beasts leaped, covering the entire sky above Annie with his shadow. The speed was too fast, but Annie could react in time.
*boom*
The beast claw hit empty air, leaving a small pit of the aftermath. The rest of the beast immediately charged at it, which made the beast confused for a moment.
"A dog is still a dog," When it realized the female human was standing above it, it tried to shake its body. However, that was too late when one of its' friend claws slashed at its head.
*sprout*
A wolf head was seen flying with its body slashed into three parts, leaving a pool of green blood on the ground. The beasts were ruthless creatures, and they did not care about their friend or even family, which is why they were completely different compared to normal animals.
