Bloody Canyon (Part 1)

Sika found an opening in front of the tower. The golden eagle seemed to have sensed the power of Sika's javelin. Its claws gleamed with red light, intending to deflect the javelin.

The golden eagle would have to be a level ten creature to deflect Sika's javelin. The man on the golden eagle's back sensed something was amiss, leaping away from where he stood. 

The javelin punched a hole half a meter wide on the golden eagle's body, as if it were made of paper. The golden eagle's claws crumbled, and it dropped to the ground with a wail.

The golden eagle had been a level nine magic beast. The man that had been on its back brandished a bronze staff.

There were people who used blunt instruments as weapons, like Sika. However, the staff that the man held was of equal thickness along its length, and both ends were carved with magic patterns, looking like spear tips. The weapon manipulated wind element as it was swished around, forming Wind Blades.
