CHAPTER 111: Isn't This A Bit Too Insane?

Drake and White Tiger looked up only to curse under their breaths.

A demonic phoenix was hovering over them, adding with the rest that was surrounding them.

"White Tiger, is this my retribution?" Drake asked as he felt like their is no point in wanting to get out of here.

He would be lucky enough if he could at least get half of these demonic beasts before he dies.

"I was really bad, wasn't I?" he continued as he defended and attacked the demonic beasts trying to get him.

"..."

What would White Tiger say here?

Even he was unable to help save his heart, how can he speak of words like 'No you're not'?

*SCREEEECH*

"Drake!!" White Tiger shouted and rushed to him just as the Phoenix released a breath of dark fire.

He had used everything he got just to protect Drake and sooner or later he won't be able to do anything anymore.

"White Tiger!!" Drake looked at him the moment the attack stopped.

"Don't lose focus," White Tiger reminded him.

But it seems that the Phoenix has no desire to let them breath as it prepared another breath.

Just as it was about to release it, another fire attack came on the side and interrupted it causing the breath to backfire instead.

"Get him out of here."

White Tiger turned and saw Saphira close to them.

At the back of the mass of demonic beasts, they can also hear commotions.

The angered phoenix wouldn't allow itself to be insulted just like that.

As if with vast amount of evil mana, it prepared another attack.

Saphira cursed, there is no way her surprise attack would work again.

"White Tiger faster, get Drake away from this place," she called out.

White Tiger didn't wait long and nudged Drake to make him sit on top of him before going through the path that Saphira had created.

Just as they passed her, Drake noticed her family sword.

'It's cracked! What kind of attack would cause such sword to crack?'

Yet it wasn't the time for him to be asking these things.

"SAPHIRA!!"

When he heard Hunter's shout, he turned to see Saphira collapsing on the ground just as the phoenix released its breath.

She was already at her limit as well, acting all hero and stuff.

Telling Drake to leave while she herself needs to do it as well.

But yeah, this is just it.

'It's your turn now... Vermilion Bird...' she spoked.

'Geez, such a grand entrance indeed,' Vermilion Bird clicked his tongue.

As compared to Saphira, he who had returned inside her have been able to replenish his mana.

Just as the breath was about to hit her, red fire erupted from her and rushed to counter the black fire that was coming down.

Hunter was still a bit far that he and the rest were shock to see this.

It wasn't her usual red orange fire, it was plain red and the heat was much more intense.

*SCREEECH*

A different sound of a bird came after the attack was countered.

"Hey crown prince, why don't you get a grip and take care of her?"

They were even more shock to see the bird fly out of Saphira's body.

As it materializes its body, he spoke to Hunter.

Hunter snapped out of his own shock and looked back at Saphira.

"Down..."

His aura instantly changed as he spoke of this one word.

"Wha- This-"

Even Ridge, Nixon and the others were affected.

The moment Hunter spoke the word Down, they felt like a huge boulder were pinning them on the ground.

"Hunter," Qirin called him.

Hunter realized his mistake and concentrated before his team were able to finally move.

The demonic beasts remained the same, pinned on the ground, struggling.

"Kill them," he called to the rest who was still bewildered by what is going on.

It was just a day, why must they have to receive blows after blows?

Saphira was hiding something.

The island was hiding something.

Now even Hunter was hiding something.

And Saphira was hiding something again.

And it seems the mythological beasts are hiding something about them as well.

Since not only Drake but the rest tried to resist Qirin by calling their mythological beasts to help them but none of them helped.

And finally Saphira seems to still be hiding more!!!

Just what kind of group are they having?

Isn't this a bit too insane.

They could only kill the demonic beasts while crying without tears.

They needed explanations, please just explain things to them.

Once they were done in killing, they looked up to see that Vermilion Bird was glaring at the phoenix that was running away.

The he sighed before going down.

"This is..."

They looked up at him and didn't know how to communicate.

"Hey Azure Dragon's brat can you make a play to sleep in?" Vermilion Bird spoke first looking at Willow.

Willow slowly nodded her head before she looked at Hunter, who was carrying Saphira.

He turned to one side and stomped on the ground.

The ground became even and a lot of space was created.

Willow followed by using her wood to make a big enough place for all of them to rest in.

Drake silently helped with the mana he has in order to strengthen the place.

Vermilion Bird didn't give him a glance.

He made his body smaller before landing on Hunter's shoulder to look at Saphira.

"If we left her to recover on her own, it will take her half a year. And that is not good."

It was Qirin who spoke.

He too became smaller but just the same size as a lion, which allowed him to see Saphira's complexion while she was being carried by Hunter.

"It's done," Willow spoke on the side.

While Stormie, Nixon and Ridge remained quiet.

Their curiosity were at its peak but as of the moment there really is no chance for them to ask anything about what is going on.

It seems that Saphira is not in a good condition.
