Ray felt extremely overwhelmed by their power, they were covered by a certain aura that sent chills to Ray's skin.
Ray had never seen Royal knights before, he knew such knights existed but he had never seen them.
As he stood there looking at them, ten more orcs ran towards the knights.
"The back" Ray muttered.
"What back..." Gabriel said.
"I'm going ahead, you guys should head back," Ray said and ran towards the other side.
Ray ran forward so he could avoid the orcs and the Royal knights, then he would use another path to reach the enemy.
"Ray..." Leia shouted loudly.
One of the Royal knights heard Leia's voice and tilted his head to the side and saw Leia and Gabriel, then he saw Ray running away.
More orcs burst forward from the streets towards the Royal knights, there were five Royal knights at the scene but they were later joined by another five.
"What should we do?" Leia asked.
"We have no choice but to chase after him" Gabriel said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Argh... I hate this, what is wrong with Ray" Leia shouted.
Gabriel immediately drew out his sword causing Leia to quickly turn around, three infected black wolves were standing behind them growling loudly.
"Gabriel we are surrounded" Leia whispered softly.
Gabriel gently turned his head and found five more wolves moving slowly towards them.
"They are all infected, so slashing them doesn't count, we have to behead them or kill them in one slash" Gabriel said.
"We are in this mess because of Ray and he's gone, I wonder if our sword can behead them" Leia said.
"Well we just have to find out, I'll take the ones behind, try not to get injured so we can run away" Gabriel said and both of them held their swords tightly.
With a swift action Leia lashed towards the wolves in front of her, she swung her sword and slash the first wolf that jumped on her.
She missed the wolf's neck and ended up slashing just the legs, the wolf fell to the ground while the other two attacked from both side.
Leia couldn't defend from both side at once so she faced the wolf on her left and used Ki to harden her back hoping for the wolf to strike there.
Instead of using her Ki to harden her back and risk getting injured she tried something else, she focused her Ki on both of her foot and dashed forward.
She couldn't control her speed as it was the very first time she was using Ki to boost her speed, so she ended up running into Gabriel and they both fell to the ground.
Both of them landed with a loud thud and all the wolves charged towards them.
*Slash!*
Slashing sounds filled the air as blood spill on Leia and Gabriel as they struggled to stand up, a Royal knight had slashed the neck of all the wolves.
Leia and Gabriel stood up and looked around, they were amazed at the strength and speed of the Royal knight.
The Royal knight walked towards the both of them, his foot creating a thud as he walked towards them.
Leia and Gabriel stood in front of him, their bodies were shaking because of the intimidating aura that surrounded the Royal knight.
"What are you kids doing" the knight asked with a hoarse voice, it was like he's voice was also enchanted as it sent chills down their spine.
Both of them wanted to speak but they just couldn't, they could only stare at the knight as he towered over them.
"I just asked you a question, why are you out here fighting, didn't you hear the bell"
"W-We are very sorry sir, we heard the bell but..." Leia stopped as the knight looked around not paying any attention to what she was saying.
"I thought there were three of you, where is the last person?"
"H-He ran towards that direction" Gabriel spoke.
"He ran towards where... why didn't you stop him" the knights shouted.
Leia fell down as the knight shouted at them, she couldn't understand what just happened, her legs just gave up causing her to fall on her butt.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTwo orcs ran out of the direction where Ray ran towards, the orcs immediately charged towards the only humans they could find.
"Isn't that the direction he ran towards, what makes you think any of you can survive an attack from infected beasts" the knight shouted.
"Aaargh" the orcs shouted as they increased their speed towards the knight.
"Stinking piece of shits" the knight shouted as he charged towards the orcs.
In an instant he was in front of the first one, instead of slash off the head of the orc and ending it in at once, the knight used both of his sword to cut the hands of the first orc.
The Royal knight wielded two black swords, the black swords match the color of his armor thus giving them a unique design.
"Arrrgh" the orc screamed as both of his hands came off.
The second orc swung a wooden club towards the knight, Both of the orcs held wooden clubs on their hands.
Instead of dodging the knight used his swords to block the attack, the orc successfully knock down both of the knight swords to the ground.
'I didn't expect his attack to be this powerful, I just hope that boy hasn't been killed'
The orc swung his club again but this time the knight dodged it by moving backwards, he quickly dashed towards the orc.
He didn't bother picking up his sword, he attacked the orc bare handed, he first punched the hand of the orc making the club it was holding to fall to the ground.
The knight swung his fist towards the face of the orc but his fist was caught by the orc, he tried to use his second fist to punch the orc but his second fist was also caught by the orc.
The orc immediately dragged the knight forward and head butted the knight.
