Otherworld Adventure

He sent storms of wind elemental mana, fired off wind elemental magic, and surprisingly thunder elemental magic as well.

Silver acted as the backup and support for the Arks Academy"s front liners, he rushed to protect anyone from Arks Academy who was in danger.

Lucia and the Little Kings regained their vigor with the help of Silver. They pushed forward and crushed the Fallen that stood in their way, but no matter how they looked at it; the battle was going to be an uphill struggle.

With each fall of the monsters they took down, more would just take their place. If one fell, the two would take its place. There seemed to be no dents to the number of Fallen still alive on the battlefield.

If the bodies of the Fallen didn"t disperse into a green light after they were killed, then maybe the students could use those bodies to form obstructions for the monsters.

As they were now, it seemed impossible to carry on defending while being attacked on all sides! There weren"t much of the students left and as time pa.s.sed by, they would only exhaust themselves of their stamina and mana.

"Silver! I got this side! Go help out Seri and the Prez!" Lucia called out.

"RAARRR!!"

Silver released one final Gale Storm spell before dashing towards Zephyr and Serilla. He sent a Lightning Blade with a flick of his tail and beheaded the group of Fallen that Zephyr and Serilla were struggling to stave off.

"Thanks Silvy!"

"Th-thank you!"

The two expressed their thanks and rushed back into the fray. They couldn"t afford to dawdle. The longer it took for them to defeat these monsters, the lower the chance that they"d be able to clear the trial.

This trial was an extra trial that acted as both the 4th and 5th final trial. Since it was two trials combined into one, it was no wonder why the difficulty had suddenly spiked.

"Dammit...Cecil"s still out of commission...it"s a good thing he informed us of their weakness...but still, it doesn"t make it less difficult to just aim for their heads!" Lance roared as he pummeled and chopped down the Fallen in front of him.

"Ugh...this is way too repet.i.tive. These monsters don"t seem to have an end to them!"

"Less talk, more chant, Friedrich!" Aurellia shouted.

"Yeah, yeah! Storm of flames—" Friedrich and all the other academy leaders were frantically trying their best to stave off the Fallen. The Kings were also doing a great job. Alice and Robert were working together and they held off a large portion of the Fallen by themselves.

Anixio and Anixia were constantly creating and repairing the wooden ramparts that they conjured around the battlefield.

Audrey was firing off wind spells after wind spells from behind the ramparts. She didn"t send anything too big, but medium scaled spells that sent the Fallen into the air and in disarray. This way, the other students were able to quickly finish them off with a slice to the head.

The other Academy students fared a little worse off. They didn"t have the Little Kings or a powerful battle pet such as Silver to help them out.

Most of the battle pets summoned could only serve as a meat shield for them. They were constantly being pushed back and the encirclement continued to shrink on their side.

Lucia saw this and sent some of her spells their way. She couldn"t help all too much, but she did try to do everything she could to help out, even if only a little.

Cecil and the injured were behind them so she was helping only for the sake of ensuring his safety.

"What"s wrong with you Cel? Please wake up...please wake up...we need your help!"

"Tsk...I can"t use Apocalypse...everyone might get caught in it..."

Fina who was next to her immediately quipped up.

"P-please don"t Lulu! Even if you could, you"d use up too much mana! We can"t afford to lose another combatant! Not to mention we can"t be sure the monster wave will end even after you wiped them all out with Apocalypse!"

"O-okay! It was only a thought—watch out!"

Lucia flashed next to Fina and blocked one of the Fallen"s attacks with her b.u.t.terfly. She sent a kick towards its gut and pushed it off of the ground, she spun around and slashed her katana onto its neck and successfully beheaded it.

"Th-thanks!"

"Step back a bit and catch your breath! I"ll hold them off for a bit!"

"Okay!"

"Also...can you do something about those other Academies? Look at them...the beastmen and Gigantes are pathetic...can"t they learn from the Elves and Oceanfolk and work together?!"

"Ugh...I already told them earlier...but they wouldn"t listen to me! Only the Gigantes, Elves, and Oceanfolk academies even bothered to listen, but with how the Gigantes are...they"ve been caught up in their frenzy to even think about working together with the others!"

"Tsk...They"re only causing trouble for the Elves and Oceanfolk...the beastmen are the worst. Even if they have the largest numbers, can"t they cooperate?!"

The Arks Academy students were all doing relatively fine. The Elves and Oceanfolk were able to work together to fend off one side of the encirclement, some of the Elven Shamans were acting as healers for all the battlefronts.

The only problems were the beastmen and gigantes. The gigantes were able to cooperate with the elves and oceanfolk for a while, but soon their battle frenzy and blood thirsty nature took over. They were now only rushing forward to attack and no longer cared about cooperating with the rest.

The beastmen were even worse. Yes, they did have the most numbers, but they at least should have the decency to work together with everyone!

Can"t they learn by now that by relying only on themselves, they"ll only continue to cause more casualties to not only themselves, but also everyone here!

The same thing happened during the previous trial. Lucia couldn"t understand why the beastmen were so stupid. Was it maybe because they were closer to monsters that their brains were still on the same levels as them?

"Tsk...Pathetic...Who care about them, but can we do something to at least calm those big brutes down? If we lose them, we"ll seriously be lacking some firepower on the other battle lines.

Right now, the academy group had formed a somewhat large encirclement with 3 battle lines, one area was defended by the beastkin, another by the beastmen, and the rest was defended by a joint coalition of the Elves, Oceanfolk, and Gigantes.

However, there were Elven shamans spread across the battle lines to help with recovery and healing. There were also some beastkin and elven mages going around the battle lines to repair and create more ramparts to obstruct the Fallen and to act as defensive structures for the academy group.

Suddenly a small incident occurred that further shrunk the encirclement.

"HELP! WE NEED BACKUP! THE MONSTERS HAVE BROKEN THROUGH THE RAMPARTS!!" A dragonewt roared. It was the Empire"s 13th Prince.

The elven mages, Anixio, Anixia, and Audrey quickly went over to back them up. They tried to repair the ramparts, but the beastmen had already retreated and their frontlines were pushed back.

"Dammit, can"t you idiots hold out for a bit?! It"s only a small hole, why did you f.u.c.king retreat?!" Audrey yelled in annoyance.

"What? You expect us to throw away our lives?! Like you"re one to talk! One of your guys is out of commission since the start! Your so-called "Strongest" sure is useless!"

"What?!"

Anixio quickly called out, "Sis! Don"t waste time on them! Let"s just create more ramparts around the beastmen and quickly head back to support the rest!"

"Yes, sis! Wasting time is a no no~ I don"t even want to waste my breath on these idiots~" Anixia added. She conjured more wooden ramparts around the beastmen"s frontlines. Once she was done, she quickly ran back towards the Arks Academy"s battlefront.

"Tsk...stupid fools," Audrey cursed and sent some magic spells to support the beastmen, after making sure that the elven mages and Anixio had successfully created more ramparts, she pulled Anixio back to the Arks Academy"s area.

"Tsk..." Reinhart could only click his tongue in annoyance. The beastkin were having it easy with that white wolf going around helping them out. Compared to their battle pets, the large wolf was like a mobile turret. It defended the entire beastkin battle line. It wasn"t only a meatshield like theirs.

"Continue to shrink the battle lines! We have to be tight knit on our defenses! We can"t continue on like this! Since those beastkin want to help everyone out so much, we"ll shrink the battlefront over to their side!"

The other beastmen only nodded at his orders. They fought back against the tides of Fallen, but slowly and surely the battle lines were slowly shrinking and the encirclement was growing smaller and smaller.

Yes, it did have a positive impact and made defending much easier, but it also caused some problems and unwanted casualties to occur...
