As Alastor got inside the vehicle, he quickly aimed to jab the enemy at the nose, momentarily stammering them. One of the enemies manages to kick his front, but along the way he pulled out a handgun out from the pocket of the enemy he stammered.

In a moment of rushed, Alastor balance was shaken as well as the others in place of the vehicle in front of them had briefly decreased its speed.

Alastor forcefully aimed and killed one. The second attempt was a missed and pierce through to the other vehicle. Ken who was steering the wheel in the way of the enemies nearly got shot at his right.

His voice raised in concerned. “I’m right here! Currently taking over the enemies’ vehicle! You might want to watch where you’re shooting at!”

“No shit, Sherlock!”

Alastor responded and set loose the gun. His sword hiss against the scabbard as Alastor slowly take out the weapon.

His sword beamed in light and swung it. In instant he killed two people with ease. He continued to stammered them by using his elbow or jabbing the nose of the enemy. All of his attacks started by stunning them before cutting their throat and stabbing their heart.

However, the enemies are no rookies. As Alastor cut down an enemy, another one sprung over and delivered a left hook that made him paused. Alastor felt his gut’s upset. He retreated a few steps and settled.

The eyes of the enemy returned to the weapon and didn’t hesitate for the second to lay his hands on it. Alastor quickly got up on top. The bullets pierce through the ceiling and nearly got him, he took a big leaped over Ken’s vehicle and hung over.

Just to think that they’re gaining the upper hand, several shadows had appeared in the bright sky. There were three of them and they landed on top of the carriage.

“Shit!” Linda cursed under her breath.

Liber cried, implying that he will be fine. Linda conjured ice sword and leap on top. Seeing they’re wielding swords; she conjured another one.

She blocked every attack. Her sword extended whether the enemies intended to caught her off guard. As the sword of the enemy got stuck on her ice sword, she immediately kicks him out. Linda’s ice shards suddenly took over the enemy by surprise. The shards pierce through his head and his chest and lifelessly fell.

The last enemy was more formidable than the others. They exchange attacks, blocking perfectly and using equal force to cancel each other’s attacks.

She was focusing that she’s been completely open from behind.

Another enemy was about to got up and sneak to stab her from behind. Cid, however, got on his heels and shot the head of the enemy.

Another set of enemies had appeared out of the forest. All dressed in black. They rode horses and had completely encircled them.

Misty flinches the moment an arrow came to her. She quickly hid. There were noises of rocketing guns and arrows but they didn’t seem to damage their vehicle.

She risked a glance and saw all of them seemingly floating in the air.

Inside, Mr. Funny Man raise his palm twisted it, beckoning the trapped bullets and arrow in his web of wind magic. All of the enemies’ attacks returned to them ten-fold. Even the horses were caught on the onslaught too. Some survive but they all returned in the wild.

Misty helped Cid in killing the enemies that had manage to clung on the princess’s carriage.

Alastor uses the leftover weapons to shoot on the enemy.

Of course, the enemies returned the favor too.

Alastor conjured a chantless magical transcendent wall to blocked the attacks and protect Ken who’s driving behind him. Ken throttled and got closer to the carriage. Alastor duck over as the wall he conjured began to fall apart. The shards turn to white mist as it falls.

Alastor had take down 14 enemies with his pistol. His eyes spite in effort to subdue them in efficient way as possible. Again, he conjured another transcendent wall. Each bullet that made contact to the wall bounces and had the wall absorbed the energy in a form of wave.

His teeth grinds together as he grew impatient. Alastor decided to shoot the wheels of the enemy. One by one, the tires had become flat. The wheels guzzled and grind in the dirt as it crashes the nearby trees. Not too long, it exploded.

A smirked stretches over his face.

“Al!” Ken shouted.

Alastor came closer to him. He didn’t seem to mind the bullets as his wall was holding strong from the attacks.

“What?”

“Get down, find yourself a horse.”

“Why?”

“Just do it!”

Alastor quickly found a horse and leap. He perfectly landed on top and made his way back to the carriage.

Ken had steered the wheels to the previous vehicle and blocked its way. There was a moment of cat and mouse before the enemy had finally given up. Ken quickly pressed the break and the back of the vehicle crashes on the enemy’s car hood.

Ken caught a wild horse from the enemy and road it. Before he can fully get away, he threw a fireball at the vehicle and what followed is a chain of explosions that destroyed several vehicles that got stuck in the road.

Seeing how Alastor and Ken finally settled, Linda became more aggravated to end their fight. As their blade crashes on one another, his sword froze and quickly creeped on his skin. He felt numbed after the frosty ice had completely covered his hands.

When he tried to break it, his hands were completely severed from its limbs like a broken glass that shattered in the ground. He shouted in pain. There was no blood because the nerves had been frozen too by her magic.

“Ice magic: Frostbite.”

Linda beheaded the man. The blood painted over the carriage and also her sword. She swung and loosened the ice that covered her sword.

The scenery had completely changed from the clear sky to rocky mountains.

Alastor wondered how long where they fighting so that they haven’t notice that they’re in completely different part of the region.

Alastor knocked over the carriage.

Caroline who’s praying the entire time was pulled back in reality. All the horrid noises had finally ceased, but she still hesitates to open it. Her eyes simply peered.

Alastor did not fail to notice it. It is unlikely that she ever got to see herself in a position where her life is at stake.

Contrary to his thoughts, Caroline was more concern over them rather than herself. She’s afraid that because of her they might lose their life.

“You okay their?” Alastor asked.

Caroline simply offered a single nod.

She needs some time.

All was too shocking and very quick for her. She never had the chance to get her grip before facing a life-threatening situation. In fact, there were never is.
