Destroyer of Ice and Fire
Chapter 32: Shedding off burden
"I didn’t expect you to have some beastman blood." His collar pulled up, Dyfer walked in front of Yurou and calmly observed the transformed Belo. "However, you still can’t condense arcane particles. You must be keenly aware how much of a difference there is between someone who can condense arcane particles and someone who can’t. You better give up."
"Belo, what should we do!" Ayrin shouted. Belo stood immobile; Ayrin had no idea what he was plotting.
"You’re too noisy!"
Belo leaped backward, jumping back to Ayrin’s side, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "This Dyfer is stronger than I thought, I can’t beat him alone. Also, that Kybaver with the funny erect braid, he can’t condense arcane particles yet, but his body and spiritual power have already reached the required level. His family runs a body-training cla.s.s, so he has more body techniques than ordinary people. Even ordinary arcane masters might not be able to beat him. His strength won’t be all that lower than Dyfer’s. Our only hope of victory is to sneak-attack Dyfer together."
"These two guys are full of cunning and deceit, don’t waste time talking nonsense with them." Kybaver stepped forward just when Belo and Ayrin were making their plans in secret. He stood shoulder to shoulder with Dyfer, his expression flickering from good to bad. "Let’s first smack them down!"
"Things are getting bad!"
Belo and Ayrin both had funeral-like expressions on their faces.
Both of them locked their stares on Yurou at the same time.
"Ah!" Yurou shouted subconsciously and retreated back a step. He realized Belo and Ayrin’s plan: since they couldn’t beat them anyway, they might as well hit the weakest one into a flat cake even at the risk of getting smacked down.
"A senior student who can already condense arcane particles, don’t tell me you feel no shame bullying two freshmen!"
Just at this moment, a silhouette suddenly jumped down from a great tree, silvery hair glittering under the stars.
"Rinloran?"
Ayrin was surprised and happy when he recognized the newcomer.
"How come this guy’s everywhere, he pops up every time to fight for justice and protect the weak, don’t tell me he has a secret crush on Ayrin?" Belo couldn’t resist muttering.
"It’s you? What, you want to stick your nose where it doesn’t belong?" Dyfer said, his face entirely expressionless.
No matter in which academy, students with special bloodlines were extremely rare, and as long as a student had some unique bloodline, they would become well-known figures in the school. You could tell at first glance that Rinloran possessed high-level elven blood, hence he became very famous as soon as he joined the school. Whether freshmen or seniors, the students all knew of him.
"You could also avoid doing something so senseless," Rinloran coldly said, looking at Dyfer and walking to a spot not far away from Ayrin and Belo.
"Are all the freshmen as rude as you guys?"
Dyfer threw Rinloran a glance, then lowered his head, as if he had no desire to pay attention to Rinloran any longer. But the moment he lowered his head, his body suddenly went into action.
He arrived not far in front of Rinloran in a single flash.
"Double Snake!"
Two moving fire snakes once again appeared in the air!
"Pop!"
Arms crossed in front of his body, Rinloran slid back a full five to six meters.
Holy Dawn Academy’s school uniform was made from some unknown material and didn’t catch fire, but Rinloran’s hands were burned into a bright red, and, just like back when he blocked Huston’s strike, his hands trembled nonstop.
