"I know you are going after Draco, take this, I was going to keep it for myself but I'm not participating in the war anymore"
"What is this? A pearl?" Ray asked.
Selena handed Ray a small tiny crystal, the crystal gave little light because of its size but Ray could feel an enormous amount of Mana from the crystal.
"It may be helpful, try not to die, I still have lots of things to teach you," Selena said.
"Thank you for believing in me, I'm going to put this fighting to an end" Ray spoke.
"If it is really necessary, you can change into your beast form, if the enemy proves too much to handle" Selena whispered in his ears.
"What about the knights? okay ma'am" Ray said as he saw the look on her face.
Selena probably knows why he told Ray to transform if needed, maybe she had a plan, but Ray was still reluctant, if he transform into his beast form, it would cause a lot of problems for him.
The senior knights already saw him in his beast form plenty of time, if he expose himself the knights would chase him down.
Selena stood up from the ground and walked towards the gate, Ray turned around and took a deep breath, this would be the first time he was fighting a war.
He wasn't afraid because he was sure the knights were going to win, he knew the training the knights undergo every single day, all their training just so they could protect themselves and their kingdom against beasts.
'Why are you still standing here, are you scared' Kaan shouted.
'Stop shouting in my head, I'm not scared this is just the first time I'm seeing so many beasts together, it's different and they are all Infected'
'So to sum it up, you are afraid, you know you won't die right?'
'Probably...this is a war, from all the movies I've watched, a war is unpredictable, you may get stabbed from behind'

Clanging sounds filled the entire battlefield, Ray wasn't in the middle so he couldn't see what was happening, if the knights were winning or if the beasts had the upper hand.
"Okay...here we go" Ray mumbled.
Ray ran towards the battle but the knights were all in front, but he wasn't concerned, he wasn't planning to join the knights, instead he was going to the heart of the battle.
"Arrrgh..."
Ray shouted as he used his entire strength to throw one of his spears in the air, Ray stopped to look at the distance it covered and he was surprised, his strength was really back and he was stronger than usual.
"What are you doing, move" a knight shouted at Ray from behind.
The knight was running in Ray's direction and he looked back to look at the other knights, when he faced forward again Ray was gone.
"Huh! what about... arghhh" the knight shouted as he joined the battle.
Ray appeared where his spear was in mid-air but he was shocked, he was far away from where the knights were, and now that he was in the air he saw the damage that Selena caused.
Ray could see a large space in the middle of the beast, that was where her black flame landed and started to cause damage, Ray had started falling so he threw his spear again toward the ground.
Ray saw different types of beasts from above, including the speartooth that James told him was dangerous, he purposely threw his spear close to the speartooth so he could face the beast.
The beast was like a sabertooth that was extinct in Ray's world, the beast was a tiger with two large teeth sticking out of its mouth.
"Here we go, you guys are first then Draco"
Ray appeared before the spear could reach the ground and landed on one of the orcs running toward the academy.
*Boom*
His impact made him and the orc fall to the ground, but Ray was on top of the orc and quickly used one of his spears and thrust it into the orc's neck, Ray twisted the spear in the orc's head and separated the head from the rest of the body.

The beasts were not expecting someone to land in their midst but their orders were clear, most of the beasts ran past and ran as two large orcs stood in front of him.
Ray didn't come to battle orcs but there was no way he could avoid them, he was in the middle of the war.
'Might as well go all out now that no one can see me'
[Transform]
A light covered Ray's body and he transformed into his beast form with both spears in his hands, the orcs immediately ignored Ray as soon as he transformed.
'They are seeing you as a beast, this is great you wouldn't be attacked, go straight for the boss' Kaan said.
'You are right, this is...'
Ray didn't know why but his eyes glanced sideways and he saw an incredibly fast beast running at full speed toward him.
"Speartooth..." Ray shouted and turned towards the beast, the beast was too fast for Ray to react fast enough.
The speartooth was a high-level beast and James told Ray it was really fast, if the beast is infected it would still have control over its actions.
The beast leaped in the air towards Ray, if Ray was faster this was a perfect opportunity to kill the beast but he raised his spear to block the beast's large teeth.
*Boom*
Ray and the speartooth landed on the ground, the beast was on top of Ray and was ready to tear Ray apart, while Ray held both of his spears with both of his hands to keep the beast at bay.
The beast growl loudly as it struggle to sink its teeth into Ray's flesh, Ray held both of his spears and used them to block the beast so there was no way he could escape with his teleportation.

The speartooth was kicked away from Ray's body by an orc, the beasts didn't care about Ray or the speartooth as they ran towards the knights, Ray quickly stood up before the speartooth.
'I don't think I can defeat that...'
'The knights might be able to take care of it?' Kaan said.
'How will the knights be able to take care of something like this, the senior knights might be able to but who knows how many knights it would kill'
'You know there are five of these, killing one of them isn't solving the problem, we have a job to do'
'Yes but I'm taking this down'
Ray and the beast were gradually getting shoved away from each other as more beasts swarm the area.
The orcs, goblins, and wolves blocked Ray's vision and he lost sight of the speartooth, he couldn't run through all the beasts so he threw one of his spears up.
Ray now had a good understanding of how to use his new powers, as soon as he awakened Kaan's power, he was able to use the powers without any drawback.
"RAAWW"
The speartooth jumped out of nowhere towards Ray and before he could teleport the beast used it's claws to slash Ray and send him flying.
Ray was sent flying but he didn't land on the ground, he landed on the shoulder of a large orc and his spear fell off. The orc didn't mind carrying Ray as it continued running but the speartooth wasn't going to let Ray go.
One of Ray's blood spears appeared in his hands but before he could stab the orc the speartooth was already behind him.
'Behind you' Kaan spoke and Ray immediately teleported to the location of his second spear.
"Dieee" a knight shouted and swung his sword towards Ray.
When Ray threw his spear into the air, he didn't teleport towards it and the spear fell to the ground in front of an orc that kicked it forward till it ended up in the frontlines.
Immediately Ray used his spear to block the attack, and he looked around, he was on the frontlines where the battle was heated and he was a beast in the eyes of the knights.
