Hunting a Blind Man, Part 5

I am currently in a position that cannot be classified as good, most likely in a situation against death itself. But when I thought things will destroy me, someone has appeared in front of me, saved me from the monster and asked my name.

"Judah Judas. And you?"

"Julius," he responded to my question with his name and he looked curiously at me like I am some kind of rare animal species endangered. "So, say... Um... You are the one who fights alongside two brothers named Flint?"

"Y-Yes. Yes. I did."

"And you are the one who can do spells way to advanced for a small boy?"

"Y-Yes." I replied feeling scared of Julius because he touched my left shoulder and when he did that, a weird blue smoke left my shoulder, and this did not even affect me. "What are you doing?" I asked him taking a few steps back and be ready to use my wand anytime.

"I was checking something. It looks like your mana is doubled." say Julius who is just looking at me with great interests. "It seems impressive for a kid to have double mana capacity. Usually, this thing is happening cause of passing generations."

"... my parents have died before I was born." I say without even thinking about the consequences of telling a stranger about something personal.

"Hm. Now that explains why you have much more magic." says Julius. "It looks like your parents give their capacity of mana to you, and now, somehow have the spells from your parents memorized inside your brain. And that is probably why you could do an "Oblivion" spell. This one got me nine weeks of intensive training."

"And that probably explained how I can control the vampire spell?"

"You can do a vampire spell? That is really impressive and also dangerous because most people who have tried to do this spell have almost died." Julius comes closer to me and he smirked at me. "You kid got some potential to become a General and even one of the Seven Defenders."

"Seven Defenders?" I asked Julius and right when he was about to answer, both of us heard a loud crash, but then, Julius looked at me, he waved goodbye and he left the village by teleporting.

I have so many questions to asks him, and about those Seven Defenders he mentioned earlier, but I bet Fiona might be in those Seven Defenders because she is the most strong warriors I have ever encountered and also my roommate and knight. But I decided to abandon this weird thing for later and run in the direction where the crash was heard.

A few minutes later, after I arrived at the zone where the crash was heard, I saw Gregonson, having blood around his body, and the blind man, having wounds around this legs and arms. Gregonson was wearing a small portion of the rock armour that looks deteriorating and a left-arm made by rocks. And I saw the blind man, having both of his rock arms deteriorating.

After a few seconds, I looked at Gregonson, who was about to attack the blind man again. But this time, being here, I decided to give him a boost. But I do not want to alert the blind man so I decided to whisper a spell to Gregonson while I aim my wand at him. The spell I am about to shot at him is called "Feel invincible", a spell that have a temporary effect for one minute, but this will be enough to put the man down of his misery or knocked him down. But right when I was about to launch the spell, Gregonson looked angry at me and yelled.

"Do not interfere! This is my fight, Judah!"

"But-"

"DONT!" yelled Gregon but this time louder and transforms his legs into rock type. "This battle is between him and me."

I let my wand down. And looked at the battle who is about to come and to be honest, this battle may not be going to end well for both of them because they are injured and they could be knocked out at any minute.

Gregonson, after he transformed his legs into rocks, walks slower but much harder and I could sense the earth vibrating like an earthquake. And the blind man has taken some rocks by using his magic and combining them with the ones from his arms. The blind man coughed some blood and this did not stop him from getting on his feet and be prepared to fight my best friend.

Even some civilians have gathered at the scene to see what is going on, and even three knights were coming here to stop the fight. But I stopped them by showing them the "Squire Parchamnet" and telling them.

"Everything is under control. Do not interfere in this fight."

"Sorry, little kid!" says one of the knight who was about to use his sword and interfere in this fight. "But we have to do what grown-ups have to do, and that is by protecting the civilians and our future knights like you."

"Then I am sorry for doing that." I said taking my wand and aiming at that knight and said the spell "Sleep" to him.

The spell has hit that knight who was close to enter the battle between the monk and the blind man, and he made him fall into a deep sleep. The rest of those two knights were about to attack me cause of insubordination, but I quickly used the same spell to them and I successfully put both of them to sleep. One of them was close to hitting me with his shield with spikes, which might've injured me or worse, killed me.

This spell is sometimes useful, but it has a side effect when someone uses it, and that is by making the mage or wizard who uses to fall into a deep sleep for a few moments, a much shorter period than the knights are now. But this... is the best... opportunity for Gregonson to fight against an enemy... And I... Wish him good luck in doing that....

I am sorry I will not be able to... see... this... battle... But after I will wake up... I might be able to con... congratulate...

The Blind man got hit by that kick attack Gregonson was launched but this did not make him fall, even though the kick has hit his belly, and a hit like that would've destroyed some organs or lose his balance, but the man stood on his legs. But Gregonson did not give up yet, after he arrived close to the Blind man he continues to hit him with his fists made out of rocks until he made him fly into the sky, and after he was two meters above him, he yelled.

"Rock FIST!"

And he punched that blind man so hard, he made him flying into a house and break the walls of that poor house who repaired three days ago due to the fact one carriage has entered the walls because a driver was drunk. When the blind man was in the house, the owner, who seemed angry because somebody has broken the walls again, took his katana and was about to cut his neck, but Gregonson threw a rock from his fist into the katana and made it break the blade.

The owner turned around shocked than angrier because a pebble could break a katana, and he saw there Gregonson who goes closer to the blind man, he takes it from the collar of the blind man shirt and yelled at him.

"Where are the kids?!"

"In a better place." he said which made Gregonson much angrier and made him think that he took out his life.

Gregonson takes his hands off the collar from the blind guy shirt, he looks ferocity at him and about to hit him with one of the hardest attacks he was keeping for the last moment, but then, someone stops Gregonson by doing that attack by yelling "STOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!", and that yelling belongs to the little girl from outside the house. Gregonson took a look at his back and he saw there, something that made him change his mind and stops attacking the blind man.
