Chapter 273: Invite
Annie opened her eyes and sighed, " This is troublesome, it’s best I leave it to Melissa and the others."
She immediately used pack call then used a ritual spell. When she was done she poured herself a glass of wine and sat on her throne and waited.
------------------------------------------
Ben Galethunder stood nearly 50 kilometres away from the massive silver castle and sighed.
" Why am i doing this again, aren’t there people better suited to this than I am?" He asked while stretching the back of his hand.
A woman with pitch black hair sighed next to him, " You mongrels of the Galethunder clan might as well be called the sloth clan."
A giant of a man clad in full body armour nodded with her. The three of them were members of three of the eleven clans of the of the round table.
" Let move in." The woman nodded and their team of nearly a hundred Espara with the strongest at level 5 moved in.
As soon as they got within 20 kilometres of the castle, fog rose from the ground and surrounded them.
In the blink of an eye the fog go so thick they couldn’t even see a few metres in frog them. The three of them were better off.
They could at least see up to 10 metres in front of them, their subordinates could barely see their own hands.
Amongst those hundred Espara, a young man activated his ability turning his entire body into gold.
He activated his domain, within his domain, weapons made of gold floated around him defensively.
However his domain which usually stretched to a diameter of 40 metres could barely extend beyond 5 metres.
" Grrrrrrrr." He heard a low growl behind him but when he turned around there was nothing there.
He started getting nervous, two shields floated closer and circled around his body, he grabbed two swords and stood ready.
" Grrrrrrrr." The low growl came from his left this time, he sent a sword flying in that direction like a bolt of golden lightning.
The sword disappeared into the fog, " Grrrrrrrr." Multiple growls came from every direction.
His body started shaking nervously, " Whoever you are, show yourself, I’m an agent of the Organisation.
If you don’t reveal yourself right now, I’ll have you hunted and arrested!" He shouted but received no answer.
" Grrrrrrrr." He heard the growl behind him but it sounded too close, before he could react something entered his domain.
His shields moved behind him, a humanoid wolf shadow appeared in front of him with its back turned to him.
Then the world started spinning, ’ Is that...my body?’ he saw his own headless body still standing defensively.
The shadow looked down at him and the last thing he saw was a grinning wolf face, ’ We’re doomed.’ he thought to himself and his soul fell to the dunes of shadows.
Somewhere else, a woman was shivering with tears streaming down her eyes, her feet dangled above the ground.
A hand as tough as metal was clasped tightly around her neck, her assailant was not even paying attention to her.
Her eyes were focused somewhere else, " Tell me, how strong are those three?" The woman heard a casual voice asking her.
She looked down with tear streaked eyes but before she could answer, a strong force pulled on her neck.
Her throat waa ripped out and her body thrown to the ground. She tried to stop the bleeding but her arms lost strength.
Despair engulfed her as she lost consciousness, Melissa looked down at the corpse and used its cloths to wipe the blood off her hand.
" I think the boss lady might’ve given us more than we can handle this time." She whispered to herself.
The rest were not an issue but there were 7 who were most definitely at level 7, the biggest issue were the three leaders.
Melissa was confident in her strength and would gladly challenge anybody on her level.
But she wasn’t arrogant enough to think she can match a level 8 Espara, " I need to report this."
-------------------------------------------
Annie sighed when she received the pack call from Melissa, she had senses those three powerful auras.
But they were trying to hide so she couldn’t exactly tell their level, she wasn’t worried about the seven level 7 Espara.
She alone would be enough to take care of them, the issue were the three level 8 Espara.
Annie was confident she could survive against one, even if she couldn’t win she can preserve her life but there.
That was more than she can handle, Adrian on the other hand, even she didn’t know the extent of his power.
’ You better wake up soon sweetie.’ she sent a pack call to Melissa and leaned back on her silver throne.
Melissa received the pack call and passed it to members of her lineage who were hunting down the Espara.
As soon as they received it, they nodded and retreated. Annie’s plan was quite simple.
They couldn’t fight the level 8 Espara, not without Adrian but they had a weapon strong enough to face them.
The castle she was in, the castle was a weapon like the wheel above, in fact it was powered up by the wheel.
It was not as powerful but as long as the enemy was inside and she was on her throne, she could hold her own.
After the werewolves retreated, the fog cleared revealing only about 40 from the initial 103 Espara.
The leader’s faces turned black from rage, except Ben Galethunder who looked bored as if he didn’t want to be there.
Render Belvord shook from rage, his aura rose like a heavy mountain causing the remaining Espara to back off.
The Belvord clan were known as human supremist, seeing so many human corpses caused by Fayera sent him to the edge.
He rose to the sky, a giant metal sword materialised above him and just as he was about to attack.
He found himself standing somewhere else, his cold eyes beneath the helmet turned towards Siri Voidlink.
She returned the cold gaze, " There are humans around that castle, if you attack you’ll kill them as well."
" They have sought shelter under these monsters, they deserve to die." He answered coldly.
Ben sighed, " Shut up you two, the fog is gone, obviously they intend to talk, let her them out." He suggested.
" I don’t not negotiate with animals." Render growled. Ben gave him a bored look, " Then you can leave."
He walked towards the castle, Siri shrugged and followed him, Render grumbled but he followed them as well.
Annie smiled softly when he saw them walking towards the castle.
