Chapter 137 - A Kid Is Leading Them?
"Um... John's master, do you really think he'll be able to deal with this attack? The monsters are on water where they're skilled at. For a person who lives on land to go against something like that... The chances are slim" Said Zakaragi as he looked over at master sylvia
Master sylvia was enjoying a cup of red wine as she laid on a beach bed, she grabbed from the umbrella next to her shortly after the shockwave attack
"Zakaragi is right... There's no way a B-Rank adventurer can deal with an attack like this alone..." Tiana muttered
"Is something bad going to happen to Hero?" Wilma asked
Master sylvia who heard this, then took another sip and gave Wilma a pat as she said
"John can handle it."
After that, she closed her eyes with her cup still in her hand and tried to sleep. However, that moment was ruined by the sound of footsteps approaching
"What do you want?" Master sylvia asked still trying to get some rest
"Sorry for interrupting your time, I am Richart, the leader of the duke's personal knight squad A. I was passing by and thought I saw something familiar and It turns out I was correct, hello there, young lady" Said the knight as he got on his knees
Short silky blue hair and blue eyes, despite being a knight, not a single scar could be seen on his face. The uniform he wore seemed to contain a lot of heavy armour, yet he didn't show a hint of fatigue and the sword on his waist, there was a similar aura coming out of it as the one on master's daggers.
The knights behind him gave her a salute and kept quiet. They all looked strong and trained. At least a quarter of them were magic swordsman
"Mr. Richart!" Shouted Wilma as she jumped to give him a hug
Richart looked a little uncomfortable with her suddenly moving to hug him, but didn't look like he minded. When she finally let go of the hug, Richart gave her a pat on the head as he said
"Young lady, we must go now, your father is waiting." Said Richart as he extended his hand to her
"Father? Where is father?" Wilma asked
"Father, is waiting for you outside of the beach. We shouldn't keep him waiting any longer, right? Let's go." Said Richart as he kept his hand extended
Wilma grabbed on to it and then said
"No! You can't go Mr. Richart! You need to help Hero. If Richart and Hero team up, you'll be unstoppable!" Shouted Wilma
"Hero?" Richart Asked
"Yes! Hero! He saved me and saved everyone! Look at the wall, Hero did that!" Said Wilma
"A Hero? A single person did all of that? Not the adventurers?" Richart asked
"That's right! The adventurers went with hero and they're currently saving everyone!" Said WIlma
"I know I have no say in any of this but please help john." Said Nanesia who joined in
"Yes, please help him. He's just a kid..." Added Tiana
"A kid?" Richart asked
"Sort of..." Tiana replied
"..."
"There's no way he'll be able to deal with everything by himself" Said Zakaragi.
Just as they said that, A spiky wall of ice suddenly rose up from the water off shore on the other side of the wall. Not only that, but it was big
And then came a second shockwave, seeing this, master created another dark sphere and engulfed both her and all the knights.
*Boom*
When the shockwave passed through, master got rid of the dark sphere to see what had happened. More people had collapsed this time, and some even had blood coming out of their ears.
Any more and it would be dangerous, when Richart saw this, he spoke up
"Very well, I will go assist Hero." Said Richart with a determined look
Wilma's eyes who saw this lit up as she gave Richart another hug
"Thank you! Mr. Richart!" Wilma said happily as she tightened the hug
"It's simply my job, Young lady." Richard replied with a smile
When she let go of the hug, Richard got up and looked at the other knights, there were 10 in his squad, but all highly skilled.
"Stay here and protect the young lady." He said
The guys who heard this, all simultaneously replied
"Yes sir!"
"Then I'll be off" Said Richart as he turned towards the wall
But before he went he said one more thing
"Thank you for using that spell to protect me and my knights, but I also had a few tricks to use against it" Richart said
For a moment, a spheric glove seemed to cover his body, but Sylvia couldn't see it clearly.
After that, Richart went straight towards the wall. As he looked around, he saw people continuously bump into each other, or slam their heads against the sand wall, it was as if they'd lost their mind.
Once Richart finally reached the wall and jumped on top of it, what he saw left him speechless.
On the other side, there was Long path of ice which went straight to the near-shore. And at the end of the path, was a long and wide platform of ice, on top of the water.
"What happened to the wall of ice?" He asked himself
Once he looked closely, he could see adventurers jumping on to the water, and grabbing on to those who were unconscious or drowning, and jumping back onto the path before taking them to the platform
Others were dealing with the fallen mermaids, they were using their spells to attack it and stop them from getting close to or even crossing the platform.
However, judging from the looks of it, they were having difficulties, as the mermaids could submerge themselves in water and avoid there attacks.
They were also heavily outnumbered, heavily outnumbered and yet the amount of people that they managed to put on the platform was over 20
And to top it off, the one who was leading them, was a kid?
