Chapter 7 – Mission

Having finished saying what he wanted Alice he started to walk towards the exit until out of curiosity he looked again in the direction of the boy to whom the perverted compliments were thrown.

(Isn't that the boy from a few days ago? How is it that he looks more beautiful than before, it's more like I didn't notice him despite paying attention to everyone) to her surprise it was ren, but what left her really confused It was how he did so that he would not notice it with his senses.

*clanks*

Closing the door behind her, Alice began to walk down the hall towards the staff room a little confused and curious as to how the boy managed to hide from her.

*ding dong*

Hearing the sound of the alarm signaling the end of the day, she ren she went downstairs to the exit of the classroom.

Placing a beautiful bracelet on his wrist, Ren continued walking, the beautiful bracelet seemed like a branch of thorns wrapped around Ren's wrist, the beautiful platinum color of the bracelet stood out with Ren's skin and uniform, giving a further highlight to his already abnormal beauty.

A small charm hung on the "branches" of the bracelet its beautiful design of a miniature maple leaf, being no more than 2 cm, the "maple leaf" was made of the same material as the bracelet reflecting a beautiful platinum color.

Starting to direct his spiritual power towards the maple leaf, ren could see how the leaf began to turn reddish and orange at the end of the leaf and the color began to give a contrast at the edges, a hint of blue appeared on the "leaf". Maple" giving it a warm and cold touch at the same time.

["Cold Autumn" has been activated]

(POV Ren Kurobane)

Putting on the Aster Thorns Bracelet, I started to walk back to my room, glad to have the Aster Thorns Bracelet at my disposal if I didn't I would probably have to deal with people watching me.

Looking at my hand I look to entertain myself by looking at the specifications of the bracelet on the way home.

After reading the information I had a change of heart and started walking outside the academy.

Aster of thorns a gift given by my parents to me when I was nine years old, although it is incomplete it is a very valuable artifact.

When my mother gave it to me, she reminded me that this artifact is special due to its fragments. According to my mother, the existence of the Aster Thorn Bracelet is unknown and the only thing known about it is its fragments since these can be used even without being on the bracelet, but according to my mother the effects of the shards are reduced by 50% if they are not attached to the bracelet.

The total number of shards is unknown but, the good thing is that the bracelet will resonate when it is close to one, that's how I found [Shard – Cold Autum].

As I wandered in my thoughts I reached the slums.

(Third Person POV)

slash

Baang

Boooooom

As Ren walked through the streets of the slums in his cloak, his attention was drawn to the ambiguous sound of explosions and slashing.

[Spirit Perception has been activated] By deploying his skill, Ren's senses were increased by several folds, the sounds that were ambiguous before are now as clear as if it was happening in front of him.

Increasing the speed of him ren from him it doesn't take long to reach the origin of the explosions, a dirty and dark alley, in this a battle is taking place, three men and two women are fighting against two women.

Seeing that the battle was intensifying, Ren jumped two meters to a nearby building before kicking the wall of the building and climbing onto the roof of the building.

Standing on the roof ren widened the range of his [Spirit Perception] before turning his attention to the battle.

Seeing better, Ren noticed that the side where the two women were, they were very injured, one of them had a diagonal cut from the shoulder blade to the ribs, the wound was not very deep but you could see that she had already lost a lot of blood with just see his face.

The other one was a little better with only a few cuts on her thighs and arms. On the other hand, on the side of the three men and two women, they looked relatively well, since apart from having a few burns and their torn clothes they had no injuries. nothing more bad in sight.

fwoosh

[FireStorm]

On the side of the two girls, the one with the most serious injury cast a [Fire Files] spell, the [Fire Storm] spell, the bigger man the three of them saw this spell coming and protected their group with a shield with kite-shaped at least 2 meters long and 1.50 wide.

"Give the Recording Pearls to the good Elizabeth and Elena or we will kill them" a girl with a bow yelled at the girls, since seeing that despite the advantages they could not defeat them quickly, she wanted to go the way of persuasion and the threats.

"Dream that we will give you the recording pearls, carolina, if we are going to die, we will die being faithful to the kingdom and not being a traitor like you" said the girl with the cut.

"Hoo, are you sure Elizabeth, because you better not become my wife and you will have a dream life, jewelry, clothes, mansions, I will give you whatever you want, what do you say?" said a man with a halberd

"I'm not like those girls who fell into your traps, hehehe, you think I don't know what you lured them in with sweet words, you used them and after you got bored of them you sold them to brothels, you think I didn't find out john" said the girl who They called Elizabeth.

"I don't know what you're talking about Elizabeth, if what you say is true why she lasts so long in service without being arrested" said the man with the halberd who seemed to be called john.

"Enough of games! This is your last chance, deliver the recordings or we will take them from their corpses" said the man with the shield.

*woosh woosh woosh*

Without even giving them a chance to reply, Caroline (the girl with the bow) fired three arrows in succession.

boom

boom

boom

The other girl who was silent the whole time launched several layers of barriers in an instant, of which only a very thin one remained after the attacks of the three arrows, a movement that saved their lives, since each one of the arrows was aimed at their fucking vitals, that attack took them by surprise and they had no chance to dodge it in time.

"The ways of the sky grant me the power of the power of lightning and wind [Sky Storm]" With a quick chant Elena (The one who was silent the whole time) cast a combined spell of the [Lightning Files] and the [ Wind Files] the spell [Storm of the Heavens] a powerful area spell.

[Sky Storm]

— Rank: Land 3rd Lvl.

— File: [Lightning Files] – [Wind Files]

— Type: Area

— Effect:

- Converges the lightning and wind element in a storm that destroys everything in its area. Area of ​​Effect: 10m2 (The more magical energy, the greater the area of ​​effect)

—(Note: Walking through the sky I tripped over lightning and fell into a sea of ​​clouds, in my fury I took the lightning and the clouds and created a storm. – Passage left by Allan Tempest (Creator))

Ren who was watching on the roof of the building immediately understood the reason why Elena was silent and Elizabeth was talking, it was just a way to buy time to gather the necessary magical energy for the spell.

Seeing that the spell was going to affect him as well, Ren jumped to a building a little further away and looked around again.

With no time to react, the group of five could only protect themselves, the strong wind shears and lightning bolts began to destroy their defenses and cause serious injuries.

BOOOOM

"Aaaargh" a powerful lightning bolt landed where Carolina and the other girl protected themselves with barriers leaving them immediately unconscious from the heavy damage.

BANG

The blast of air and lightning destroyed the big man's shield and left him with only his muscles to protect himself, John and the other man fared better as they had protection artifacts and took almost no damage.

Running out of magical energy, Elena fell to one knee and vomited a mouthful of blood from the forced casting of a spell higher than her level.

Elizabeth seeing this helped her up and took advantage of her opportunity to flee as far as possible.

Pa

Pa

Pa

Splash

The sound of heavy footsteps against the floors and puddles of dirty water could be heard in the alleys, the silhouettes of two women leaning on each other could be seen in the moonlight.

thud

Leaning against the wall, Elena looked at Elizabeth with steady eyes and said.

"Eli take the pearls I will buy time for you, it won't be long before John and Cristopher reach us, by that time neither you nor I will be able to escape"

Reluctant to accept Elizabeth wanted to refuse but her reason told her to listen to Elena, giving Elena a hug getting up to leave, Elena and Elizabeth's attention was diverted to Elena's right where they heard the sound of applause.

"How touching, I gave you the opportunity to be my woman, but now I will make you slaves that everyone will use!!" in the doorway was John with several deep cuts on his face.

Just when Ren thought that the battle was going to end, something appeared in front of him.....
