Chapter 64: Return of the Undead King(Part 1)
"Looks like he’s got his hands full," Muttered Celia quietly, as she peered out of an alley with Ravella.
"Yeah, they’ve got him outnumbered four to one...come on, let’s go help him-...," Replied Ravella as she began to step out of the alley, before trailing off as Celia held up her arm to stop up.
"Wait, we can’t just rush in blindly, that won’t help matters...we need to come up with a game plan and decide who we should each take on. We’ll let Raven handle the Captain...one of us will fight the other one with a Relic Armament, and the other will fight the remaining two. The one with the Relic Armament is the only one among them who’s a target, by the way. Hm...okay, I’ll let you decide who you want to fight," Responded Celia, as she glanced at Ravella.
"Huh? Uh, okay, let’s see...alright, I’ll take the two without Relic Armaments, then. Winning a two on one fight should be a good way to prove myself," Decided Ravella, after glancing at the Knights.
"I mean, you really don’t need to prove anything to us, we already know that you’re strong...but alright, if that’s what you’ve decided, then let’s go with it. Come on, let’s do this."
The pair then shot out of the alley, before Ravella took aim and fired out a barrage of light arrows at the Knights as they surrounded Raven, forcing them to scatter before Celia picked up the pace and shot towards Drote, firing off a couple of explosions to force him further away from the other Knights.
Ravella then ran her Mana through her whip, extending it while swinging it out with immense force towards Kia, while simultaneously unleashing a rapid beam of light towards Cleaza.
Kia quickly ducked under the swing of the whip, as Cleaza blocked the light beam with the face of her blade, her feet skidding back a couple of meters as the force of the beam pushed her back upon impact.
"Now, [Light Cannon]!" Chanted Ravella as she fired out a massive beam of light towards the two of them, forcing them to away from the Captain as she then shot towards them as her beam petered out, having carved a wide, smoking trail along the ground.
Cleaza swung her blade across and fired out a slashing wave of sound towards Ravella, who dispersed the incoming attack by swinging her whip straight through it, before unleashing a barrage of light projectiles towards the Knights.
Cleaza quickly backed away and took on a defensive stance before deflecting as many of the projectiles as she could, grimacing as she failed to fully deflect a few of them, which grazed past her sides, drawing out trickles of blood, while Kia managed to block and deflect nearly all the projectiles shooting towards her, only one getting past her defenses and grazing the top of her right shoulder, a stifled hiss of pain ringing out.
