Ice Queen in Another World V1 [Completed]

[27] Heart of a Hero

The poor vampire was surrounded but Claire only saw her rampage. Bloody limbs and heads flew, strings of hardened blood flowed as she sliced and diced. A punch, a bang, and a smushed plaster of meat and gore remained. There were screams but the army was much too big for Alicia to take on alone and, soon, her vision filled with Goblins.

The Ice Queen frowned as she stepped forward, white hair blowing, an aura of dancing blue light shrouding her.

"I shall end this, then."

A trouble to her companion was a trouble to her.

She raised her hand and her mana flowed. An azure light glimmered just below the black ceiling of the mountain's innards and a massive block of ice covered the sky.

"Oh my god. . ." Aura said, staring up at the gigantic block after making her way to the two. She gripped her bag tighter with unblinking eyes. . .

Fieth's hand twitched, 'It was a mistake, after all, I should have reached this city sooner.'

Claire strained her mind, controlling the beastly mass and ripping it into chunks of ice before shaping it into countless spears of ice.

. . .was this the strength she should wield? Was this what Fieth wanted?

"ALICIA. . .dodge."

A bloodied vampire turned into a bat and a rain of spears fell from the sky.

Claire accelerated her attack whence her companion fluttered. She showed no emotions as an army turned to none before her. They were apt to dodge as well as they could, but her cold, azure, eyes jumped to and fro—tracking every last one of them down with a whistling spear of ice that followed the initial rain.

However. . .

-Bang-

She narrowed her eyes.

. . .a goblin shattered her spear.

'Oh my,' She thought as the creature turned towards her, enraged, and soon chased.

It was bronze in color. Arguably smaller than any of the evolved goblins she had just slaughtered but—it was definitely far more powerful, and it was angry.

She was about to kill it as well when a voice called out.

"Wait-"

Claire turned around to see the dark elf jittering on her toes like a rabid dog.

'What's gotten into her all of a sudden?'

Aura took a deep breath and stepped forward.

"Please. . ." She asked, a fire dancing in her eyes.

There was a tugging pain in her chest, seeking the beast before her, and pitting her. That was the call of a Hero.

". . .please," She said as she dropped her bag, "Let me fight him."

"You?"

"What?" Fieth drew his weapon, "We had an agreement!"

Fuck, he cursed within his mind. Was his plan falling through? Why was his <Rumor> not working right?

He gripped the shoulder of the girl, and quickly spouted, "<I heard a rumor. . .that you entrusted me with your record> "

However, after seeing Fiora's confused eyes, and what little effect his words had, Fieth cursed and ran, pushing her aside.

"Fieth!" The elf shouted but the male was already gone.

'So, that's how it worked.' Claire smiled as she watched the man run towards the goblin. 'A rumor.'
