077. Hashashins and King Rahamma -1 (Part Two)

The dead soldier's colleagues flinched in shock and hurriedly turned their heads in the direction of that ray of light. Unfortunately for them, by the time they looked, their heads also blew apart into gory bits and pieces.

"It's magic!"

"Hide yourselves!"

As if to prove that they were better trained than most other combatants, the surviving Aslan soldiers quickly took cover among the buildings.

The child flinched in fear, but that ray of light didn't come for him or his grandfather. No, it only came for those Aslan soldiers peeking their heads out to take a look, before cleanly piercing right through them.

'Someone is protecting us!'

The child realised that an unknown magician was protecting him and his grandfather. Having understood that fact, he turned his head and watched on as more rays of light flickered from the distant fortress to instantly kill off the Aslan soldiers.

The child grasped the old man and did his best to drag the latter away.
