Journey Of A Legend

Chapter 19: Dire Situation

*BANG!*

*BOOOM!*

In the dimensional zone, Emma, Mila, Sam, and Greg were fighting for their lives as they tried to dodge and deflect the incoming attacks.

However, the hundreds of Manifester ranked fairies were so strong, that they could barely survive against the rapid attacks.

Mila tried to make as many firewalls as she could to delay the fairies' approach, but every time she did one, the power of the hundreds of Manifester ranked wind blades could easily blow it away.

Also without Emma's healing, the three would be dead long ago. The fairies noticed this too and wanted to get rid of her, but every attack was nullified by Sam's petrified body.

As the three ran down the mountain, they suddenly noticed something was wrong.

"Why do I feel that they are much less than in the beginning?", asked Mila as she made another firewall before her.

"Don't know, but it couldn't mean anything good.", answered Sam as he used his body again to deflect a wind blade.

Greg was dodging the incoming attacks too and made a scar on the fairy's body, which was close to him with his daggers. After he damaged one, the dagger's freezing effect started to play a role.

But because of the rank difference between the dagger and the fairy, he couldn't make their blood to freeze in an instant, but with time, in the end, the ones who got slashed all froze to death.

*Paff... Paff... Paff*

Greg watched as bodies after bodies started to fell to the ground, but unluckily he couldn't pick up any energy crystals.

As he fought, he saw that something from behind them came up on the mountain.

Realizing what that was, his eyes contracted, and using Alice's wind element, he appeared next to Emma and shouted toward Sam.

Mila noticed Greg's sudden appearance and said in a shocked voice, "What are you d-"

"Sam! Protect Mila now!"

Hearing Greg's shout, Sam looked behind him and noticed another group of fairies started to come toward them. Without any hesitation, he ran to Mila, ready to help her in defense.

Greg pulled Emma closer to him and said while fighting against the incoming wind blades, "Hold on tight."

Watching as Greg pulled her closer, Emma blushed, but a second later she nodded with a serious expression.

In an instant, as she holds onto him, Greg used Alice's light element and his speed started to accelerate, while his body got shinier.

Emma firstly didn't understand what was happening, but after Greg's speed got faster and faster without stopping she got dumbstruck.

"So before, that wasn't his fastest speed?!"

Greg started to run from the mountain and after he ran a few miles he appeared before the zone's gate, where they came in.

Putting Emma down, he said without stopping, "Go out and find some help! I try and bring the others down."

In an instant, Greg disappeared from her sight.

"A-Amazing...", thought Emma, but after a second she shook her head and said, "No, no! It's not the time to be in awe! Let's go fast!"

Just as she wanted to turn around, a white flash appeared before her and disappeared again, leaving Mila before her with her shocked face.

"D-Did he just..."

"Come on! We are running out of time!", said Emma and caught Mila's wrist, and ran toward the exit.

As for Greg, just as he arrived before Sam and was ready to take him out too, suddenly the fairy made a huge circle around and above them and almost instantly made a huge wind bubble, cutting off all the escape routes.

"Sh*t! Now we are dead for sure.", said Sam as he was looking around.

Greg saw the situation, so stopped Alice's power and looked around confused. After a few seconds, he felt something was wrong.

"Strange... Why aren't they trying to kill us?"

As the two looked around, suddenly they felt as a dreadful presence started to coming closer and closer toward their direction from the mountain's top.

A while later, a fairy with red skin appeared between the woods, flying toward their direction slowly as it was looking at them with cold eyes.

Feeling the terrific aura around that red fairy, Sam opened his eyes wide and shouted with a pale face, "A... A Soul Collecter creature!!"

***

Outside the zone, Emma and Mila were running toward the city, when suddenly cars appeared before them.

"HEY! HEY! STOP!"

Emma jumped out before the incoming car, making it stop.

*Screeech!!*

The car stopped with a huge brake, just a few inches in front of Emma.

"What the f**k are you doing kid!?! We are in a hurry, so step aside or I will be the one who throws you to the side!"

With a shout, a man with a leather jacket and a sunglass on his head, climbed out of the car looking at Emma angrily.

"Sir, I'm sorry, but my friends are in danger! We are from a dimensional zone, which is in proximity and we need help."

Hearing what Emma just said, the man took his sunglasses off and asked instantly, "Where are they? We came from the Soul Association."

Listening to what the man just said Emma and Mila got happy in an instant and pointed toward where they came from.

"I see. Hop in, we are going!", said the man and sat back inside the car.

Mila and Emma after climbing in the vehicle, the engine started and they started to go toward the dimensional zone at full speed.

***

Greg and Sam looked at the terrifying creature before them. Its presence was so strong that they felt powerless before a thing like this.

"What should I do... What should I do... Not even my shield would be able to defend against a thing like that. "

As Greg thought for a solution, suddenly he heard a deep and quiet voice from the red fairy's mouth.

"Huma... Kill... Sla.. ing"

Hearing the erratic voice, Greg frowned.

"I was right that going up in the ranks, would make creatures talk, but this one is a bit strange."

As Greg was thinking, the fairy raised his arm with a sudden move and slashed. Almost instantly a wind blade that was as fast as a bolt of lightning, cut down Sam's hand.

"Huh? HUH?! AAARGH!!!!"

Realizing what just happened, Sam started to scream, holding his bleeding and armless shoulder.

Greg noticed that the fairy was about to slash again, so he wanted to help Sam, but he was too late.

*Slash... Paff*

In an instant, Sam's head flew into the air and his corpse fell to the ground and dark blood spilled out from his lifeless body...
