*BOOM*
His sword hit the wall destroying it into pieces, as he continues to run towards her without any break in his berserk form
But luckily before he destroyed the wall grayfia also already moved, so she was able to dodge the strike with Aria in her arms
But still, grayfia couldn't help but sweat because the destruction in that blow was not a joke especially Grayfia is very surprised at his speed with such a heavy amour
But she knows she is faster than her but the problem is adding Aria with her, reducing her movement speed by many times and that's very concerning because here there isn't any safe place to leave Aria
Other than frozen water there is nothing to be found which can be used as a safe place for Aria, even if Grayfia orders her to run while she fights with the enemy even then the aftermath probably will injure her at worse even kill her
*Trembled*
When she was thinking of a way, suddenly an earthquake came from below, and she knew it was not because of him but it was something else like something inside this ice and She had a very bad premonition in her heart about this
"Looks like I have to finish this soon," Man said to himself as he got ready to strike again, but before striking he stopped for a moment and as he opened his mouth to speak
"Listen here, if you don't wanna become someone's else food then quickly fight back and defeat me rather than running otherwise you and that little shit will be eaten alive" As he finished the sentence, he quickly dashed towards her
Grayfia who still processing what he said in her mind, but by then he already appear before her, but because of her instincts
She unconsciously acted as her body jump backwards in order to dodge the strike but in the process, she left Aria in process, as Aria become the Next main target of his attack
'No! Damn it!! I can't able to make it in time!!!!' Grayfia inwardly scream this in her mind when she realised what she has and she couldn't do anything to prevent it
As she thought about a worse outcome by this instant suddenly her shadow started to expand with an unimaginable speed, as the shadow figure started to emerge from her shadow
The figure immersed from her shadow is a large knight with a light purple glow, jet-black armour covering him from head to toe, a tattered black cape, and a long red hair-like ornament extending out of the back of his helmet which is also known as igris
'Shadow soldier!? They can even hide in other people's shadows! No more important question should be why he is here?! And why not me nor the system able to sense him!' Grayfia question herself and the system in her mind moreover she can't identify this shadow as well
Not to mention she can bet, that this is not his regular shadow, she can feel this shadow is even more powerful than Beru
Even though she knows that jinwoo has 3 generals in his army but since she never meets any of jinwoo general's other than Beru, she can presume that this shadow is one of his generals by the aura
But right this instant, she is more chaotic than ever inside, because
'What!? He knows all the time what I was doing and where I have been!? And didn't the system say that stone will teleport me only!!' She couldn't help but panic when realised that her master is watching her the whole time in silence since she knows that he can see, hear and feel through his shadows
but in her heart she also a relief because of this, a life of an innocent child was saved
Igris caught the blade with his bare hand before it could even touch the girl, meanwhile, the enemy was dumbfounded that his attack was stopped by some creature that suddenly appeared from the darkness as well as he is feeling furious that someone Interrupted his battle
The enemy looked at the new arrived with anger in his eyes but when he saw his opponent's purple glowing eyes, he felt like his entire existence was swallowed by something very very dangerous
He couldn't help but sweat as he quickly jump backwards five steps in fear, as he swallow his saliva in nervousness
Meanwhile, Aria also got a chance as she quickly run away while staring at igris towards Grayfia, she get behind her and peeked from there
"Ide-identify yourself" His voice shuttered while saying this since he didn't feel anything like this before, but his instincts are screaming that if he fight then he will die, no matter the struggle
But still, the pride or arrogance he refused to give in, as he swallowed his all fears and get ready to strike again against his new foe
"Don't move" Igris spoke this in his very deep voice making the opponent as well as Grayfia and Aria trembled more like every word igris spoke had some invisible pressure making them all nervous
As these words entered enemy ears, his strike stopped midway as his body itself stopped by fearing something might happen if he didn't stop
As igris fully emerged from the shadow, he stands up on his feet as he grab his robe and extended it
Then like a portal someone with black-haired come out of his robe and that person is none other than jinwoo who came out
Igris bowed his head as the jinwoo came meanwhile grayfia and the opponent both are sweating buckets for different reasons
One is worried about how to explain the situation about how she got here and what's going on
While other is worried about himself because he got an uneasy feeling that if he fought Jinwoo then his head will be rolling on the ground in no time
