Chapter 205: Did You See That!?
’She’s too caring. Maybe she isn’t meant for the frontline. She would be more comfortable as a medic.’
Jason came to this conclusion while watching Riyala. He could tell that she was capable since she had been trained by teachers, but that didn’t mean she was fit for battle. She cared too much about magic beasts to ever try to harm them directly. Jason sent a mental command to the adamantine ants and iron-bladed falcons that had been helping him and Ragnar, and he told them to go and join Riyala so they could finish off the hunters faster, and they all took off immediately. There were more than a hundred of them combined, so when they joined the battle, their numbers became far too much for the other iron-bladed falcons to handle.
The hunters began running away, but Jason commanded his subordinates to chase them down and make sure no one escaped! He wanted them all! The subordinates dashed after the fleeing hunters, and Jason told the weaker subordinates who had been gathering the corpses to bring them over so he could resurrect them. Jason also ordered Riyala not to chase after the retreating falcons and to bring Riyala back to him, and Raya turned around and began to carry the princess over.
As they got closer, Jason gained a small smile when he saw Riyala waving at him from a distance. Riyala’s hair and cloak were stained with blood, and there was soot on her face from all the fire that she had been throwing about, but Jason could tell that she was happy that she was able to help out! Raya landed and came close enough to rub her head on Jason’s face, and Jason patted her calmly before pushing her back with a laugh when she almost threw him to the ground in her excitement.
"Jason, did you see that!? It was amazing!"
Riyala shouted from on top of Raya, and Jason smiled as she swung her legs over and jumped down to meet him! She ran up to him and jumped happily while describing the battle!
"There were so many enemies, and everyone was moving so fast! But Raya handled it so easily! She tore through them and chased down anyone that came close, and I sent fire at them like woosh! My flames have never been this hot before, so I’m sure it’s because of the artefact that it got so powerful! And then I—!!"
"Alright, alright. I’m glad you had so much fun."
Jason couldn’t help but chuckle in amusement while putting his hand on Riyala’s shoulder! She was so excited that she was starting to bounce around like some sort of pinball! Riyala blushed when she realized that she had been talking too much, and her blush increased even more as Jason put his hand on her head before speaking in amusement.
