Blake looked down at the small hand that was still holding firmly on to his causing the corners of his lips to turn upwards. He did not try to pull away, instead, he said: "Master Berlin was right to tell you to never use such magic in front of others." "Yeah, I know. This kind of magic is not something that should be spread around." Alicia knew that this magic was translocation. As long as she had been somewhere all she had to do was visualize the location she wanted to exit from and there would be no problem. If enemy countries got ahold of such magic they would only need to send one person out undercover, find the nearest biggest place and then return to their capital. From there they could open a rift at any time and send thousands of soldiers through to invade.
Alicia let out a sigh of relief now that they were out of the woods and without even thinking still holding on to Blake"s hand pulled him along towards the village where Starla and Rose were waiting.
Starla saw Alicia coming towards the village so she started to run towards them to meet up halfway. But she stopped short when she saw Alicia holding Blake"s hand causing a teasing smile to form on her face. "Oh ho? Since when did you two become all lovey dovey?"
It was only when Starla said something that Alicia realized she was still holding Blake"s hand. She blushed all the way to her ears and quickly released Blake"s hand before she ran forward towards Starla. "So embarra.s.sing!"
Seeing that teasing look on Starla"s face Alicia knew if she tried to defend herself and say that it was just her being absent minded, Starla would not believe her. So instead of defending herself, she ran right past Starla towards Rose. "Rose we need to go speak with the village chief."
"Hey! Alicia!" Starla yelled out after being completely ignored. She stomped her feet before running after Alicia. Blake who was watching the antics of the girls couldn"t help but form a slight smile on his face as he clenched the fist that Alicia had been holding.
"Don"t get ideas… Remember who she really is… I need to gain more merits by the time of her coming of age ceremony. Only then will I be able to become her personal knight..." Blake told himself before joining up with the rest.
"What do we need to speak to the village chief about?" Rosed asked.
"Relocation. The entire village needs to be relocated and this whole area needs to become a military site." Blake explained.
"Military site?" Starla was surprised. She never thought an F rank mission to kill a few earth wolves would turn into such a big event!
"What we are dealing with makes this mission a SSS rank mission. We might have stumbled upon a very dangerous enemy not only to humankind but to all races. Everyone in this village needs to leave and they have to leave tonight." Blake said seriously. He had already contacted Berlin to let him know and even as they were speaking a thousand man army was on the way to take over the village and surround the Lost Forest.
After explaining things to the Village Chief, Old Mo woke up all the villagers and explained the situation to them. Although they were not happy about needing to relocate, Blake had a.s.sured them that the land they were moving to would be just as fertile as the land they were on now and the kingdom will also help build new houses for them all. Only then did they feel more at ease.
After packing their things the villagers followed behind Alicia, Blake and the rest as they made the long trip towards the location they would be moving to. Alicia and Blake led the way. Since it was dark Alicia was using detection magic to watch out for any bandits and demonic beasts. But only half an hour had pa.s.sed after leaving the village when Alicia spotted something flying towards them at an extremely fast speed. "Blake we got in com...!"
"HAHAHA! It seems I couldn"t wait after all." A young man with dark skin and black horns on his head stood up in the sky looking down at Alicia, her team, and all the villagers.
Flora looked at the man in shock as she yelled out. "Miss Alicia, that is the young man that I saw that day!"
"Oh? You saw me? Well doesn"t matter if you did or not you all are going to die anyway and become food for my pets!" With a wave of his hand, a horrific scream was heard and everyone turned to face where Flora was standing her body started to swell up like a balloon and once it reached its max it exploded causing flesh and blood to splatter all over the place.
Alicia"s eyes grew wide at the scene in front of her. But she did not panic instead she quickly waved her hand creating a ma.s.sive ten layer barrier around everyone including herself. Seeing this the young man was a bit surprised as he said: "Hmm? Seems you have some skill little girl! Even for me this barrier would be tough to break. But no matter I have plenty of time to play with you!"
"Why are you doing this!?" Alicia yelled at the young man.
"Does a devil need a reason to kill humans? Even if the G.o.ds themselves were here they would not be able to save the lot of you!"
