Chapter 201: The Hero
Pokralas Village Location
A seraph soars through the sky, escaping a horde of skeletons and attempting to cross over into the castle.
In the sky, a carapace bird slashes its claws, intending to split the seraph in half. Whoosh!
Behind the carapace bird, a man in yellow clothes appears. He has yellow eyes, short, dark yellow hair, and a Lanna sect robe.
His face is calm and composed. The man's right foot strikes the carapace bird's back. Pew! Boom!
The carapace bird's head explodes. Pew! Boom!
The seraph sees the carapace bird's head disappear, and sees the face of the man who saved him.
The man looks at the seraph and then down.
The man flies straight towards the old man. Pew! Boom!
The old man sees an acquaintance flying to a stop in front of him. "Have reinforcements arrived yet?"
The man shakes his head. "Reinforcements won't arrive, Lanna sect elders." I'm ordering you to handle this yourself. You have time to handle this place. When you find a way, join the Lanna Sect outside the village.
"We're already full. Do you want us to help elsewhere? What are all the Lanna Sect members doing?"
"The battle outside the village is even more intense than this place. So, this is an order from the Lanna Sect Leader.
If there's no way, take the villagers to the Lanna Sect for shelter. We have a lot to do."
The old man nodded. "Are you alone?"
The man shook his head. "I'm fleeing from a demon."
The man pointed in the air. He had large brown eyes and a bony body.
He was as large as a house, with wings on both sides. His vision was obvious, indicating that this creature was dangerous.
His mouth was large enough to swallow a person in one bite. His bones were strong enough to be seen.
A bone dragon as large as two houses soared in the sky.
Brown eyes stared at the man.
Phalen turned around, a smile on his face. He saw the majestic bone dragon flying towards him.
"What the hell! A dragon? No need to sleep tonight."
Phalen lunged back. Whoosh! Boom!
The white bone katana nearly struck Phalen's neck.
The white bone jabbed nonstop, thrashing away. Pew! Whoosh!
Phalen swung his sword to block. Boom!
Phalen ducked his head to dodge. Boom!
The white bone nearly ripped Phalen's head off.
Phalen smiled and swung his sword into the sky
to counterattack. "Take it! This is the attack."
Pew!
The white bone leaped back. Whoosh! Boom!
Phalen and White Bone began fighting again. Boom!
In the castle, the old man saw a bone dragon. He was flying straight towards them.
"What the hell, why did you drag that thing over here?"
The man kept his expression calm. "I can't take it anymore. Dealing with that demon, I can't hold it off for long."
The old man seemed to be considering what to do. He happened to turn to look at Seraph.
Seraph landed on the grass in the castle.
Seraph landed softly. [Landed safely. Yellow, let these people handle it. I'll take a break.]
The old man looked at Seraph and ran to a stop in front of Seraph. Whoosh! Boom!
Seraph stared at the person blocking his path. [Who else?]
The old man asked, "Little boy, is there something that can lure that demon away?"
The old man asked Seraph bluntly.
Seraph thought. [Who else are you?]
Seraph looked around. Many eyes were looking at Seraph, some with despair and some with hope.
Seraph knew immediately that if he didn't answer correctly, there might be a fight.
[It can't be helped. This is the first generation of demon lure medicine that Mr. One gave to Mr. Faw.
It might not be as effective as the latest one, but it's quite effective.
I was actually thinking of giving you some blue potion, but wait. I don't know when the attack will come, but let's give you this for now.]
Seraph took another bottle of red potion. "Here, if possible, I'd like you to drink it. It will give you the power to lure demons closer."
The old man calmly took it and looked at the young Seraph. "Let me ask you, did you invent it yourself?"
Seraph shook his head. "No, it wasn't me. Someone just happened to sell it to me, so I was interested and bought it. That's all I have."
The old man took it. "Thank you very much. The Lanna Sect will definitely repay you."
The old man looked at the man standing there calmly. "Take this. You must take this responsibility."
The man remained calm. "Why? Why do I have to be the decoy?"
"Are you telling me to leave?" Take that guy to the Lanna Sect. The Lanna Sect's security formation is working. Just get him there. "
"There are so many others, but you want me to go?"
"I have to give orders here. Would you like to give orders in my place? I'll act as decoy."
The old man spoke to the crowd, who were sitting like spectators watching a miniseries.
"Give us a shout for our heroes!"
One shouted, "Heroes, save us!"
"You can do it! Believe in yourself!"
"I admire your sacrifice!"
"Please take care of this, great one!"
"I will never forget this favor!"
The old man raised his hand to stop them. "Alright, that's enough. Give us a round of applause for our honorable heroes!"
The applause erupted.
The crowd gathered as one. Even Seraph applauded.
Chaya turned to look at the crowd of people staring, unblinking, waiting for him to agree, accompanied by applause.
Chaya felt a little suspicious of the old man. This duty, no matter how you looked at it, was dangerous.
Chaya's face wavered slightly, and he sighed. No one in this place was suitable to compare himself to the old man in front of him. "Is there a bonus?"
"Of course there is. I'll put up a sign saying you saved us and use myself as a bait for the demons. This honor will be given to you."
The old man gave him a thumbs-up as a gesture of encouragement.
Seraph remained calm. [Excellent. I thought you were going to let me go. It's time for me to survive.]
Chaya drank the red potion. Angry energy was released from Chaya. Numerous skeletons' eyes shot toward Chaya. Ding ding ding ding.
The skeletons ran and smashed the barrier. Ding ding ding ding.
Chaya flew into the sky. Whoosh! Out of the castle. Numerous skeletons rushed toward Chaya to hunt.
The bone dragon flew over the castle, ignoring the people standing still, waiting for the disaster to end.
The people could only pray for the bone dragon to disappear.
Seeing the dragon and skeleton beasts hunting the man, they were overjoyed.
"Hooray! We're saved! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"That's amazing! Truly a man from the Lanna Sect. So brave!"
After a while, the man disappeared with the swarm of bones, leaving only a few.
The old man looked at Seraph. "Alright, next, we'll head to the Lanna Sect. There are many dangers. We need to be extra careful."
Seraph walked over and sat on the ground with the crowd, blending in with the crowd.
The old man ignored Seraph and turned to look at Phalen, who was fighting evenly with the white bone.
Phalen swung his sword and slashed straight ahead. Pew!
The white bone slashed with a katana, blocking the straight path. Boom!
Phalen was slightly shocked. "I understand. Are you learning how to handle the Lanna School's swordsmanship?
White Bone began to fight, thrusting his katana at breakneck speed. Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Phalen began to suffer small wounds.
"I've never seen this happen before. My opponent was imitating the Lanna School's swordsmanship during the fight. Who are you? I wonder."
Your spirit energy is very weak, but your skill is at a high level. Those cracks in your bones are a sign that your body can't withstand the swordsmanship."
Phalen lunged back. Boom! Boom! Boom!
Phalen couldn't get away from White Bone.
