35 Picnic

Mogranius doesn't have time for grief right now, before putting the Fireballs into action against this fool, he took a short moment to think. "I don't know if this fool is telling the truth, could someone actually have killed Akareas?"

Struggling fairly enough to figure out truth from falsehood, the old man didn't succeed.

But even if he figured it out, he ain't going to let Chan live anyway so he simply added. "I won't take History lessons from an animal, but the deed you did today won't escape unpunished."

The Fire on his palms arose beyond controlling, he's done with this little conversation and is about to torch this fool out of existence.

Chan knew damn well that Mogranius has multiple reasons to not spare him. But of course in his limited point of view, Mogranius was nothing but a demon in human disguise about to hurl fireballs.

At the second Mogranius slightly posed to direct the Fireball against this waste of air, a strongly unusual animal rushed in the scene which caused Mogranius to ultimately miss.

Well it wasn't a total miss to be exact. Chan's left shoulder was burned whole, but not enough to be blasted off his body and through a bush!

The animal who interrupted this slaughtering, Is a Bear. I'm aware that it won't cause goosebumps to most of you by hearing the name Bear.

But unlike the commonly non hostile, on average two hundred kilo, plant eating mammals such as Sun Bears or any species a bit larger.

This one is a full Carnivore, nothing else but meat is in its diet. This large animal could easily eat all three of them in a day. 

The reason why Mogranius missed, wasn't because he was scared by the Bear. He missed because of the roar it unleashed once it dashed in the scene!

And no it isn't because the roar spooked him either, the roar caused an interference to Mograniuses powers.

Making Mogranius blow an embarrassingly small Fireball as an aftermath of that lung shaking roar. That's how Chan survived this shot, that's why he is living for a little while longer.

The roar of which the Bear caused also prevented Mogranius from further using his powers.

Although the effect would last only a few hours, they aren't in the best situation to be in lack of powers. 

No powers and a thousand kilogram Bear looking to rip them apart isn't a good combination.

But even at such a situation, even after finding out what might have happened to Akareas and realizing that he is in a stupidly dangerous situation.

Sarcasm had to be added to all of this, the geezer couldn't resist mouthing. "What a wonderful picnic."

For Eric on the other hand, the Roar was effective against him as well but he can still blast a little bit of Fire instead of losing complete access to his Magic like Mogranius.

Instant self defense instincts kicked in, Eric could not resist throwing a Fireball against the Bear who's shaking the ground as it's running towards the young kid to rip him into pieces.

Who wouldn't want to attack in such a case if they had the option too?

Although the Fire he unleashed was roughly a foot wide and a couple of feet long, it was enough to set the darkish brown fur of the Bear's on fire and reset his motive towards another perspective.

Noticing that the Bear stopped targeting them, Eric used the opportunity to instantly fly off of the ground.

The Fire he blew out of his feet is roughly enough to keep him more than 20 feet above ground.

And as he rushes to carry Mogranius out of danger, who at first resisted and told Eric to shoot and kill Guard Commander Chan.

They began flying out of danger in no time when they saw that the bite sized maniac made his way towards the thick forest long ago, likely before Eric even shot the Fireball.

His disappearing rate would make one think that he is a Magician too.

"That Bastard got away." Yelled Mogranius no doubt highly displeased as he was being carried by Eric out of danger.

"That is not our biggest concern right now. If you didn't notice, a large Bear is trying to kill us." Shouted Eric while trying to fly away as fast as possible, but it was Hard considering that he is roughly 15 feet above ground now.

Things were most difficult at the very few seconds Eric lifted Mogranius off the ground because the bear who even when standing on his four feet was six foot tall, became eleven feet tall as he stood on his two hind legs.

The Bear tried to throw them against the hard ground with his human head like paw but missed by an inch, it wasn't a total miss though.

His ten inch nails broke through Eric's clothes and skin just a small bit but it wasn't enough to throw them to the ground.

"As if the arrow wounds weren't enough already." Thought Eric when he noticed how much a cut from such a claw burns.

Due to the cover the trees provided, The Bear shortly after lost his sense of direction for where his meal is heading.

So it just ran around in random directions in the forest until it eventually ripped a tree off of its roots, hitting it at full speed head first.

Slight pain compared to part of his fur being burned down but at least the fire on his fur stopped roasting his flesh.
