The Heiress of Liondale

Chapter 11

NATURAE FRUCTUS

Eira Ysabelle's POV

Hindi ko maunawaan kung bakit ako nariritong muli sa gubat. I was wandering alone since I woke up from my sleep, my deep sleep. Hanggang ngayon ay ramdam ko pa rin ang pagod mula sa practice battle namin na nangyari kahapon.

"Group D, please come up on stage. Your practice match will now begin," Mrs. Mina Dunes, an S class support, called.

Habang papaakyat kami ng stage, kinausap ni Clyde ang bawat miyembro at ipinapaalala ang mga gagawin nila. The commander is on act, eh~

I climbed the stage with my chin up and my lips curved in a smile. Sinigurado ko na walang bakas ng takot na makikita sa mukha ko. Hindi ko maaaring ipakita sa kanila na natatakot ako dahil alam kong hindi talunan si Khione. Hindi ko maaaring sirain ang imahe niya.

Nang tumunog na ang hudyat ay nagsilabasan na ang mga pangit at malalaking mga halimaw.

"Hey..." pagtawag ni Clyde sa akin. Lumingon ako sa kanya at tinaasan ng kilay. "What?"

"Be safe." Nginitian ako nito at tsaka ibinalik ng tingin sa unahan.

"Move to your positions and remember your tasks," utos nito na agad naming sinunod.

Nagsimula nang umungol ang mga halimaw at saka sumugod papunta sa kinaroroonan namin. "Now!" pagkasigaw ni Clyde ay nagsimula na kaming umatake. Pinaikot ni Julian ang spear na hawak niya hanggang sa may maiwang mga duplicate nito sa ere. Nang tumigil ang pag-ikot nito ay itinutok niya ito sa walong kalaban. Parang isang controller ito na sinundan ng mga duplicate dahil bumulusok ang mga ito papunta sa dibdib ng mga target niyang halimaw na nasa unahan. Now, that was fast.

Gabriel is holding his flaming sword and shield. His pieces were literally engulfed in flames. He quickly slashed the sword. My mouth almost gaped in awe when the fire left by his sword reached the enemies in front of him, leaving burnt marks and earning shrieks from them. It's like, the pressure it creates travels a great distance to reach the enemies' bodies and give them a great impact. I learned that he's from a great family of swordsmen, and his skills proved it to us at this moment.

A group of ten monsters were approaching our side at a fast speed. I was about to send them ice spikes when I saw Clyde releasing a huge water snake in front while throwing balls and blades made up of water simultaneously. Every throw he makes deals a great amount of force and pressure. Kaya nawawala kaagad ang mga kalaban kapag tinatamaan sila ng mga ito.

I need to stop observing them. I need to move. I closed my eyes and focused on the pits of my stomach. Slowly, I felt it, the tingling sensation in my stomach, followed by the cooling of my hands. I opened my palms and turned them down. Then, I let my magi flow towards the floor. A faint bluish-white light covered my hands and snow started forming around them. I smiled when I felt the decreasing temperature surrounding us. When I completely made a thin layer of ice on the ground, monsters started losing their balance. Those wet monsters because of Clyde's water were now freezing because of their direct contact with the ground.

I looked at the side of the mages when I heard loud explosions. They were bickering with each other like no monsters were in front of them.

My eyes widened in surprise when wings started to grow on the back of the monsters trapped in my ice. They started flying everywhere. A dragon blew fire at us but a barrier appeared in front of us. When the fire vanished, Fred removed the barrier. Then, a huge water spear flew directly in the dragon's mouth before it closed completely. Before it could even shriek, its head was cut off by a flaming sword.
