Upon receiving their orders the soldiers immediately rushed into Castle Zancrow in order to disrupt the magic formation.The darkness wrym witnessed this and immediately went to stop them only to be immediately attacked by Kerry who used the slicer tornado spell.
The spell although pumped full of mana only resulted in the darkness wrym losing a small number of scales.The darkness wryms defensive capabilities was clearly high for its class.Even an attack from a captain on the same level wasn't enough to kill it.All the attack did was garner its attention.
The darkness wrym immediately slithered in the direction of Kerry in order to kill him.On the way however it felt a deep pain in its side.Derris Novero had sneaked up on its side and stabbed it deeply with his great sword.
Derris Novero was at the low-mid class A so he didn't require a lot of effort to pierce deep into the scales and flesh of the darkness wrym with his mana reinforced body.In fact he had already pulled out his blade and was consecutively stabbing the darkness wrym.
The darkness wrym snorted and narrowed its beady eyes.It undulated its body and hit Derris Novero with a heavy tail whip.Derris Novero was sent skidding a few dozen metres and he didn't seem to sustain much damage.The darkness wrym seemed confused but Kerry wasn't.
Kerry knew that even an ordinary person who was reinforcing their body with mana at the low-mid class A would've had their ribs broken by such a powerful blow.He was honestly a tiny bit jealous of Derris Novero and his body.This was because Derris possessed an extreme case of hyper-density syndrome.
This was a rare condition that affected 1 in 10,000 people within this world.Derris had been born with an extremely high body density which was welcomed by his noble parents.His extremely dense skin,muscle and bone granted him immense durability and his hyper dense muscles especially granted him superhuman strengh.His condition also provided him with an overabundance of the cells that produce mana granting Derris a mana capacity that surpassed normal human limits.
Derris could easily remember punching through walls as a little kid and beating every normal kid,teenager and adult he got into a fight with.His situation reached the ears of the royal guard who immediately tried to have him trained into a royal guard.Derris reached the rank of royal guard captain once he turned 18 due to his hard efforts and abnormal consituition.
If he had talent in mana and spell casting he could definitely reach the rank of captain commander however he could only perform the most basic body mana reinforcement.
The darkness wrym stopped its stupor and immediately charged towards Derris when it heard a roar.It looked in the direction of where the roar came from only to see a dark skinned humanoid hippo wielding bladed knuckle dusters.It was Terry Orgoo who was a were hippo!!!.
Terry Orgoo was originally a Knight from a foreign kingdom known as Ganasuela which was full of dark skin people.Terry Orgoo had once been sent on a mission to clear out a group of hippos which had been attacking a nearby village.Terry valiantly entered battle and win but in the process got bitten by a hippo.
Terry went and got treated but in the night he turned into a feral were hippo and killed his family.Once he turned back into a human he found himself captured.Due to the circumstances of the situation Terry was let go but he was exiled from the kingdom and became a traveller.He eventually found a magic item that enabled him to control his were hippo transformations.
Terry eventually sailed to the island of Genzip where Ring City was.He eventually fell in love with the city and decided to stay here vowing to protect it forever.He quickly became a royal guard captain and earned himself many merits.
Back to the situation at hand the darkness wrym looked around in search of more possible opponents but it only had three.Noticing this it prepared for battle and was attacked by Kerry who had used another slicer tornado spell but with more mana this time around.
The tornado sliced away everything in its path and upturned the earth itself.When it reached the large darkness wrym it stayed around it and sliced into its flesh and scales.Entire segments of scales were torn off and chunks of flesh were ripped from its skeleton.
Once the tornado eventually cancelled out it revealed the sorry figure of the darkness wrym.Entire spikes and scales were chipped and broken and muscle tissue was visible in areas of missing scales.Then the darkness wrym began to regenerate and returned to its former splendor.
