Not A Hero
Eps. 25 - Rescue
"BOMBS!"
On the sidelines of the fight between Barrey and Max, the walls of the fortress suddenly shattered violently. The billowing dust blocked the surrounding view, before people were shocked by something that appeared.
Dragon form with crystal blue color, not too big but enough to provide strong intimidation. Escal uses his ultimate style, the Spear of Hydra.
"Graoohhhhh!"
The dragon roared like it had consciousness, then started attacking the enemy group. It made the morale of the soldiers go up, feeling that great help would further accelerate the fight.
On the other hand, Escal was panting with his body splattered with blood from Veron whom he had just stabbed right in the heart along with using Explosive Slash to blow it up.
“Completed!”
Escal drew his sword which was stuck on Veron's body which was hollow in the chest area and died.
Waving his sword and sheathing it back, Escal stared at the side of the fortress wall that had collapsed from using the Spear of Hydra. Staring at the Ice Mini Hydra that attacked outside, Escal switched on the system screen in front of him.
..._____...
...You Level Up! Evolved into High Human! Stamina and Mana are updated!...
...You are the first High Human among the Warriors and Rebellion Star! Degree in earn!...
...---...
Escal did not check it immediately, because he still had a mission even though one of the obstacles had been overcome. There was still another High Human, while the Mini Hydra also had a time limit.
Although he was happy with the improvement, Escal was not stupid enough to fall into this situation immediately.
Maybe his Stamina and Mana back recovered also increased, but his mentality was not that easy to recover. Focusing and concentrating are really mentally draining.
Luckily he was able to deal a crushing blow in the final seconds, and win against Veron
"Prank!"
A sound from the ruptured object shocked him, immediately he darted to the source of the sound. From inside the room, people were screaming.
As soon as he opened the door, a blaze grabbed Escal. His gaze fell on the person outside the bars, one of the enemy parties that seemed to be controlled by hypnosis.
“Eternal Ice Control.”
Escal pointed his hand at the flames that were starting to scatter, so that the Fire was extinguished easily without melting even a hint of Ice from the Escal Skill.
Immediately Escal also incapacitated the guard, hitting the back of his head to knock him unconscious.
“In this way, the mission will be completed.” Escal walked over to the locked iron bars and was about to open them.
But his gaze immediately led to the entrance which then opened violently. Looking at the person outside who seemed to be panting, Escal returned to his job.
“Toooooooo.” Escal said nonchalantly, and opened the prison.
Zhale looked at it with a wry smile, “I think it will indeed be difficult. chase after you.”.
"The match!"
The prison door opened, and many people immediately scattered out. A big thank you to Escal, except for one person. The young man with black hair and red eyes, he was busy himself looking for his equipment.
“I Viscount Aldean Salmo really thank the rescuer.”
Hearing the heartfelt remark of the middle-aged man who was Viscount Salmo, the corner of Escal's lips twitched slightly hearing himself back at the call of the Savior.
“Tell me, the point is this is done and it looks like my guess is right.”
“Then, follow me and we get out of here.” Escal was about to guide the way, but the red-eyed young man had already directly preceded him.
“Soaring!” He said rudely, then immediately came out.
“Basic has no manners, what the fuck is he!” Zhale felt furious and cursed, Escal just kept silent before reopening his mouth.
“Do not care, quickly we Evacuate this place.” Escal was not at all provoked, then returned to his goal.
Once out of the Citadel, a terrifying sight greeted everyone. Blood pooled everywhere along with corpses or body pieces, there was even someone who instantly vomited out his entrails when he saw this scene.
“You take them to a safe place, I will help the troops.”
Not waiting for Zhale's answer, Escal immediately left quickly using Speed Up because there was still one unresolved problem.
“I'll kill you! Fuck!!”
Max goes berserk in the midst of the Commander's siege, after finding out if Veron dies he really becomes mad and doesn't care where his attacks lead.
“Shut up you shit! This time I won't lose!” The young man that Escal had previously taken out of prison, charged straight at Max.
Giving a punch right in his stomach, Max bounced and hit the wall until a puff of smoke formed. Some people are quite surprised to see this, because the body size of both are different.
“Bby too, but its nature is completely uncontrollable.” Escal secretly judged the young man.
But not getting there, the next incident made people distrustful. Max, who was covered in blood, rose again with a different aura.
Increasingly strong and ruthless, the wind was also blowing fiercely around him. His body began to swell with bulging muscles, then was coated by a black hard skin.
His skin turned greyish, his body doubled in size, terrifying black wings and horns suddenly appeared with a powerful evil aura.
“Itu..” Loyd couldn't believe what he was seeing, while everyone became more and more focused.
Julius who first responded, “Forbidden Technique - Mana Reverse Art. I never thought I could see it back here,”
Max darted quickly, almost invisible to the eye. Repelling the young man who had attacked him, hit the wall hard as it had done to Max.
“This is not good.” Escal clucked softly, taking out the Rock Tiger Sword from its scabbard. He will fight again.
