My Dragon System

Chapter 303 - Scarier than you
Just as Jack and Martha were about to talk to the Underdog guild members, suddenly, a large white ring formed underneath them. The whole area started to light up and the people around them start to panic.

"Is this your doing?!" One of the Underdog guild members said.

"No, I have no clue?" Jack replied back.

Lenny though was the first one to notice what was happening. As the lights around started to form a circle, he started to read all the symbols inside.

"Everyone get out of the circle, it's a teleportation circle something big is coming!" Lenny shouted. On his command, everyone ran out from the circle and down towards the guards who were standing on standby.

Everyone waited in anticipation for what was about to appear. At the same time several figures could be seen and a large giant wolf at the back.

"It's a beast, a large powerful beast!" The guard said, "Men get ready to attack!" The small token army of around thirty soldiers drew out their swords.

"Isn't that Noir?" Jack said.

"Yeah, and Ray is on top of it as well, what are they doing here?" Martha said.

Just as the army was about to charge forward, Martha stood in front of them.

"Wait, that beast and men are part of the Redwings."

The men stopped their advance and looked at the others who had appeared as well and noticed there were several students from Roland. Each one of them either inured or covered in black blood from other beasts.

As the students saw the clear blue sky and Roland city of in the distance, cheers and smiles started to appear on their face.

"We did it! We're finally back!" A student shouted, but then, he felt a sharp shooting pain on the back of his neck, the student fell to the ground and a large spider the size of a small dog could be seen on him.

"Everyone! Run to the guards, get out of here!" Springett shouted.

Standing behind the group of students was the old man, with two black rifts by his side. Creatures had already started to spawn out of them numbering in the hundreds.

Since the battleground was quite far from where the knights were standing, they were unable to see what was going on but could only hear screams. However, Martha now had the power of the harpies and could see quite the distance away, she saw the shadow creatures appearing out of the rift.

"The students, there being attacked, we have to help them and Ray," Martha said, she then quickly powered up her wings once more flew up into the sky.

Jack then turned to the underdog members behind them.

"Come on, you guys are coming with me!"

"What, are you crazy why would we risk our lives to save some kids?" Rick said.

Jack started to laugh.

"Do you not remember what you said before, you surrendered right, well you're lives belong to the Redwings now and if you don't want to fight them, then you will be going up against me."

Before they had left the shadow continent, Ray had seen the old man, but he was unable to warn the others in time. All he could do was tell Noir to take Van away.

"Noir, take him back to the city," Ray said, "Van trust me on this, thereafter you but you will be safe in the city, the guards might be afraid of her so they won't let her in but as long as you tell them who you are they will protect you."

"What do you mean?" Van said confused.

"Tell your mom I've completed my mission."

Noir then rushed off towards the city, while Van was left with a single thought. "Did he know who I really am, just who are those guys, the Redwings."

As the group continued the run down the field, they tried to fire their magic at the creatures behind them, but they had already used up all their magical power. Blake was Infront of all the over students, shoving anyone who would get in his way.

"Move, don't you know who I am!" Blake shouted. "My life is more important than yours. If you don't want to mess with the Empire get out of my way and if you run in front of me, see what happens."

Bliss, Max, Norah and Kaito stuck close together with the two professors Flynn and Springett.

These were the only ones with magical power left to fend off the beasts that were catching up to the students. They decided to slow down so they could attack the creatures chasing after them. Just like in the shadow continent though, there were too many, multiple spiders, hounds and white-furred monkeys were coming towards them.

Just then a couple of monkeys leapt up in the air and was coming straight for Bliss, she held out her hand to fire another energy ball but nothing would come out she had run out of mana.

"No Bliss!" Max shouted as he reached out and threw out a water blade but he too was very weak. The water blade only travelled a small distance before evaporating in the air.

Then an arrow came from above hitting the monkey right in the head, killing it in one blow. As Bliss looked up she could see a figure up in the sky holding a bow with wings.

"Who is that?" Bliss said.

Several more arrows then came down each killing the beasts in a single hit. Martha was now growing tired in the air though and had decided to come down and land in front of the group.

"Are you guys okay?" Martha asked.

"Thank you for saving my students lives," Springett said.

That's when Kaito spotted a marking on Martha's thigh.

"You're from the Redwings!" Kaito said pointing at the mark.

But the group had no time to be shocked, for another wave of creatures were coming towards them. As they looked at the students in front, they could see they had already reached the area were the guards were being stationed but then they could see a small group of people charging towards them.

And in front leading them, was Jack.

"Kill all those beasts!" Jack said, "If there are any strong ones you can't deal with, then call me over!"

The Underdog members were around forty in number, they were all a decent level of strength as well. They ran straight past Bliss and the others and went straight for the group of creatures. Now a battle was taking place once again.

The old man watching everything was furious.

"Where did all these people come from, are they not scared for their lives?"

Ray then stepped forward and walked towards the old man, he had seen Martha, Jack here, for whatever reason he didn't know why but he knew he could trust them to deal with the low-level beasts.

"Because there's something a lot more scarier standing in front of you."
