Attack On Třekov ( 4 )

Wind passed by as they stood in the bushes. Standing there, they looked at Benny. They looked shocked. Then their shocked faces turned to narrowed eyes.

" Hahaha! You can do something useful Benny? Nice joke man." Xavier ridiculed.

" But I can do trickery and trap magic!" Benny was getting angry.

" Then explain how I can't sense an ounce of mana coming for you?" Xavier questioned.

Benny walked away getting angry," You'll see."

As Benny walked down to the road, he placed his palm on the fool. A shining light could be seen forming on the floor. Soon after, one could see a spell forming then turning invisible. It really was trap magic.

" Oh, he can do it." Xavier looked at him.

As Benny lay down and looked up, he saw Feran looking over him. " Eep!" Benny jumped back.

" Can you place these all over?" Fenny asked.

" Okay, sir!"

Benny with an adrenaline rush ran all over placing traps, places that weren't even necessary were filled with traps. It was a trap haven. As Benny finished one could see over twenty traps. Benny then fell down from mana consumption as blood rushed from his nose.

" You okay there, Benny?" Feran helped him up. Feran after picking up Benny turned to Xavier," How do we get them to think there really is a commotion inside the town.

Benny raised his hand once again," Trickery magic."

" Fine go ahead and go your thing, Benny." Feran then gave him a pass.

A wide circle of transparent magic then surrounded the whole area, suddenly, it disappeared. Soon after, Feran and Xavier heard cries and pleads for help.

" There, all done." Xavier dusts his hands before completely falling down and going unconscious.

" Think he used too much mana." Xavier pointed out the obvious.

" Yeah," Feran said as he picked up Benny.

" When they come in, they'll think that their spies are really in there causing a commotion. Not to mention, the traps."

" Then we hit them."

" Mmh." Xavier shook his head." So we're both fighting them?"

Feran jumped back," Are you crazy? If anything happened to you your mom would kill me."

" Then how long do we wait for them?"

" As long as it takes Xavier. If anything happened to the city because I failed my job I'd kill myself."

As Xavier walked on the road, he felt a big high guard. As he looked down, he saw a spell circle lighting up. An explosion then happened before getting stopped by one of Feran's attacks.' This thing has friendly fire.' Xavier thought as he fell on the floor in panic.

" Uhh! How do we walk and attack here if these traps are going to blow us to strides too?" Xavier asked.

" Benny probably can't cast the spell to attack certain people meaning the spell will attack anyone other than Benny. And you answer your question, I'll attack even with the traps there you just cover me somewhere that doesn't have traps." Feran replied.

" Whatever you say, dad."

' Looks like I'll be missing out on the action.' Xavier thought. Last time, Xavier had fought non-magic users, maybe if he fought against a magic user he'd be able to see how fast he progressed. Xavier hadn't been processing far, he relied on power he had no idea he got from. It would be soon when he figures out the source of this power— maybe not now but sooner.

As they waited until sunset, stamping sounds could be heard. It was the sound of the hoofs of horses— stamping on the ground loudly as their cries could be heard. On the fields and roads, horses approached. The number of enemies was way over one hundred. As they rode their houses and shouted in laughter pointing their weapons in the skies like madmen. They swarmed around the front of Třekov like an army of ants. The moment their houses laid foot on the fields and roads, the trap spells were triggered.

" Hey what's this light?" The enemies were confused.

Blinding lights then triggered all over the fields and so on. One could even see the light from miles away.

" Boom!" was the sound of explosions on the field.

From the mountains, one could see explosions coming from multiple places; the sound was also deafening. Beams of lights lit all over the place before exploding. No wonder Benny was on death's row.

" Ahhh!" The screams of the enemies were heard all over. Even their horses ran away without a second thought, leaving their masters.

" Damn it! Those noises you hear in the city are fake! No wonder why the gates are closed. They're tricking us!" They had no idea this plan was put into motion by three people.

They then fired random arrows and spells, not knowing who and where the enemies are. They even went far as far as firing random spells. They then fired attacks at the city gates.

" They probably caught the others already!" They mentioned their infiltrators." Probably trickery magic! If they have high-class trap magic users then obviously they'll have high-class trickery magic casters!"

" Probably a group spell." They tried looking for patterns to avoid the trap spells." But where are the casters, are they that much of cowards?"

As they found the pattern of the spells they were attacked. Ice and earth spells plummeted from the ground. The earth spikes came in groups and killed most of the enemies while the ice spells also pierced the enemies. The ice also froze multiple opponents which were also followed by ice shards. The ice shards weren't much of a big deal as the rest of them. They were taken by surprise, they were being annihilated like ants. Ice followed by earth spikes wasn't enough for their members for among them were magic users who broke both the ice and earth spells before they were fired.

As they came closer to the road and city gates, there stood a man. He plunged his long sword into the floor as he waited for the enemies to make it this far. It was Feran, no wait, he wasn't alone. Just who was this person behind him?
