Distorted World: Rise Of The Black One - Volume 3 Chapter 101 11
An alarm sounded all across Avalon
“What’s that?”
A woman screamed pointing at faint silhouettes in the smoke
“It’s a monster! Everyone run!”
A man shouted running
“Don’t leave me behind you prick!”
A woman said chasing after that man
The shadows begin attacking the civilians and an evacuation order was ensued
5 minutes later…
“As: well…I have good news and bad news”
“E: what is it?”
“As: the good news is everything transpired just like you said, the smoke targeted the staffs and teachers, teleporting them out of Avalon, eliminating the biggest threats to the cult…”
“E: the catch?”
Elise cut Asher off
“As: the catch is that we’re now stuck in here with nothing but students and a residents, also the invading force is between 1000-1200 not in the hundreds like you said”
“E: yeah I was banking on the fact that they would be too preoccupied with my mom and the others to send too much of an army”
“As: I guess we both underestimated how “international” these bastards can be”
“As: elves, beastmans, humans, demons and even some vampires… the works”
Asher looked down upon the commotion from the high point he and Began Elise are standing on
“As: even if Regis manages to do his job well we’d still be outnumbered by a few hundred”
“As: you feel like giving up? In war the person with more troops always wins you know?”
Asher turns to Elise
“E: not necessarily…their goal likely doesn’t involve causing as much casualties as possible and that gives us a perfect window of opportunity”
“As: that’s just a speculation, after all we still don’t know the specifics of their plan”
Asher states
“E: I know, but here’s a counter question: have I ever failed you when it really counts?”
Elise smiles and looked at Asher
He stood there for a moment…
“As:…”
“As: fair point”
Asher shrugged
(As: god this girl is good)
“As: for some reason I can’t seem to win in a conversation against you and I can’t even be mad about it”
“E: that’s because men like you focus on their minds too much and neglect to check on their hearts”
Elise explained whilst sighing and closing her eyes
“As: I’m not sure I understand that”
Asher was confused
“E: exactly”
“As: ?”
Asher tilted his head slightly
Meanwhile…
“What’s happening?”
A student said
“Are we in trouble”
As panic ensues within the academy, all of the students are gathered up on the main campus
“Au: you’re up”
August spoke through a soul crystal
“Re: proud students of the magus academy!!”
A booming voice suddenly sounded across the academy grounds
“Re: we are currently in a crisis! The teachers have gone to deal with the problems but their efforts are currently not enough”
The voice said
“Oh no! We’re so screwed”
“Where’s the guards!?”
“Who’s that voice, he sounds familiar?”
“Re: but do not worry for as long as we are confined to Avalon death is not a possibility”
Regis declared
“Well that solves everything doesn’t it?”
A boy sarcastically said
“We can still be hurt or worst, thrown into the void bellow”
“And even if they can heal us instantly in this world we would still feel the pain of death for as long as we’re not healed!”
“F.u.c.k this! I’m getting out of here!”
“Re: but the teachers aren’t so lucky, they have been transported to the real world and are now risking their lives for us”
“What?”
“Helga sama is in danger?”
“Re: so ask yourself this children of Avalon, are you the kind sc.u.mbag who would sit around and do nothing even though people are risking their real lives to save you?”
The students were shut up by his voice
“Re: I think not! We are the proud wizards and witches of Avalon! And we will not be perturbed by these lowly trash that dare defile our great academy!”
Regis statement made the whole academy quiet for a moment
“I…I wanna protect this place!”
One student said
“Yeah me too, this is unacceptable!”
Another student said
“I don’t want to die…but I don’t wanna be called a coward either!”
“Re: then lend me your stafts and wands my friends! And in the name of Regis Faulin I will lead you to victory!”
“Yeah!”
The crowd cheered
“Regis Faulin? Isn’t he a prince?”
“Then we’re surely in good hands”
“Si: step one is complete”
Sieg reported
“As: good, Regis’s power over the crowd is just like how I’ve imagined it”
“E: so are we ready for step two?”
Elise asked
“As: yep, how many of them do you think is gonna fall for this?”
“E: all of them, and then when their scouting force is dead their they’ll be forced to escalate their plan”
(As: Elise probably deduced that they were just scouts from their level caps which I told her is comparable if not weaker than the students from 5-10 except for a few individuals)
(As: most of the 1200 or so troops they sent are mostly children our age or middle aged swordsman)
Meanwhile…
A few hundred silhouettes could be seen marching down the streets
They have no distinguishable features safe for one stranger green halo like ring on their heads
“Ar: it’s all going according to plan master”
Arias said through her crystal
“Good, soon the defenceless children will be ripe for the taking, have the first wave surround the residential area and have them prepare for the main force’s arrival”
A croaking voice sounded from the other side
“Ar: Understood master”
“We’re having some trouble with Cornelia and her lackeys but I will be personally joining you soon”
The voice said
“Ar: it would bring me much honour”
Arias respectfully said
The communication line shut
“Ar:…well it was fun…”
(Ar: my only regret is that I didn’t get to make any real friends here…)
Arias hummed
At that moment red lights suddenly filled the sky
“Ar: what!!!?”
