Chapter 67: The Battle part 5
The sound of an explosion pulled everyone’s attention. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw flames reaching high several feet.
Aric immediately knew who that was. He wanted to rush to Ariel as fast as possible. Fear gripped him as he looked at the flames, but before he could take a step in her direction, the flames suddenly dispersed.
Standing there was Ariel, but she was not the Ariel that Aric knew. Her skin went ashy, and her eyes became purple. Rage filled her as she charged at the men.
She leaped into the air, going high several feet. She held her sword over her head, dark purple flames wrapping around her sword as she slashed down.
Her sword cleaved one man into two halves. The others watched in horror. She looked up at her next target. The man met her gaze and immediately tried to run, but she was far faster than him.
She ran past the man and faced him, her sword already in a diagonal motion as she slashed his chest. The purple flames burned his insides as she cut through, and the man died instantly.
She didn’t stop there. She spun on her feet and charged at the next man. The man tried to run but tripped on a stone and fell to the ground. She stood over him with her sword ready to kill.
The man looked up at her, his eyes begging for mercy. He opened his mouth to speak, but she didn’t let him. She stabbed the sword through his open mouth, and the tip tore out through his skull. The blood splattered and stained the floor.
By this time, all the men understood that they stood no chance against her. They scurried away as fast as their bodies could carry them, but she was too fast and got to them one by one.
Aric watched this. He felt like he didn’t know anything about Ariel. He watched her rip through man after man without remorse, killing them instantly.
