Capítulo 7: High Chimera (1)
James and the knights travelling with him had finally made it to the statue. James realised that the moment he saw the statue of Persephone, his heart skipped a beat. He suddenly wondered if he had ever seen such a beautiful woman.
Her golden hair and blue eyes resembled the sky and the sun, and the sharpness of her gaze seemed to represent her authority.
It was only a simple statue of Persephone, the queen of the underworld, but even that seemed omnipotent.
[The main part of the mission has begun!
You who succeeded in reaching the statue! This time you have to succeed in your mission to protect the statue, the enemies are tearing down the city barricades, the majority of the people are hiding underground, and they... the monsters are coming!
Protect the statue, no matter what.]
James held Clarent tightly as he read the mission and then shouted to the knights around him:
"WATCH OUT, THEY'RE COMING!"
With that, the monsters approaching in the distance became visible. Someone inside the monsters was fighting and coming towards where James was with them.
"Captain Leno!" one of the knights shouted, and the morale of the whole group soared.
James was amazed to see the man's fighting stance, he didn't even need to use his sword, every time his fist hit the monster, the monster's body seemed to explode. His strength must have been at an excellent level.
However, Leno was not the only one who attacked, there was something else chasing Leno from behind, it must have been the cause of the scars on Leno.
It looked like Leno had been massively injured. Even if the bloodstains on James were from goblins and trolls, Leno must have fought against something much more dangerous, something that was still chasing him.
As Leno, the powerful thing and the army behind them drew closer to the statue, and therefore closer to James and the knights, a window appeared that made James tremble with fear:
[Leno (Level 46)]
[High Chimera (Level 37)]
James was frozen with fear behind these windows, and another window opened in front of his eyes to calm him down a little:
[Unique Achievement Won!
Encounter a superior evolved race for the first time.
You have won a card selection.]
James, who had only one card in front of him after reading the window he saw in front of him, took the card without thinking and a new window opened in front of him:
[Guaranteed Attack Card (Unique++++)
This card will ensure that any of your attacks (spell, aura) will hit the target guaranteed.
1 use.]
As he read the window in front of him, it became clear that this time it was not an ability or an item that had been gained, but rather a card to make an attack that could reach the enemy completely.
James was scared out of his mind despite his Calm Mind ability, he hadn't stopped shaking even a little bit, he needed to talk to Leno somehow, if he could hold the High Chimera for even a few seconds he could land a guaranteed attack on him.
He wasn't very strong, but if you cut the heart or throat of any living creature, it should die, right?
The beast army was closing in and James suddenly pulled himself together, raised his sword and shouted with enormous courage, this time without even leaving room for the knight captain:
"FORWARD PERSEPHONE'S BLESSED ONES, FORWARD CAPTAIN LENO'S KNIGHTS, FORWARD GOD'S FOLLOWERS, FORWARD TO DEATH AND SUNSET!!!"
With this shout, all the knights began to run. There was no end to the arrows and spells flying in the air. A perfect mana was travelling in the air and the ground was trembling because of so much hustle and bustle.
After the sudden sound of metal clashing, James had already managed to kill three goblins and was ready to kill more.
There were almost 150 metres between him and the place where Leno and High Chimera fought, but there were dozens of monsters in this 150-metre area.
Moreover, these monsters were not only goblins and trolls. Small Chimera and slime-like monsters were trying to walk in between.
A strange group of people were here for the sole purpose of targeting one thing: A statue of the Goddess.
James knew that this was just a tutorial, but the fact that the infernal challenge was so monumental didn't make him squirm. After all, what kind of reward would it bring him to complete such a challenge without dying?
With this excitement and the fear and adrenaline provided to him by the huge army in front of him, he continued to take his steps quickly and swung the sword in his hand, Clarent, at the monsters with full effort.
"Skyaaaa!!!"
The moment Clarent cut the arm of one of the goblins, the goblin started to burn, while James was trying to understand what was happening, he suddenly smiled and shouted "GOOD JOB DEAR CLARENT!". His sword was trying to clear his path as if he wanted him to live.
The goblin was moving left and right, crashing into other monsters and causing them to burn, in just a short time, 9 monsters whose bodies had been burnt to ashes were stuck to the ground.
"Twelve monsters have already fallen...120 rights?
After thinking these words, he managed to pass through the monster corpses and dodge all the remaining monsters thanks to the flames that formed around them.
He managed to see James Leno and High Chimera very clearly. The two were fighting in a huge empty circle.
None of the knights around dared to join the battle, and the monsters that tried to join were hissed back by High Chimera.
The scene was perfect. The sound of the Chimera's claws colliding with Leno's gigantic sword sounded like serial music. The blood flowing from the duo's bodies seemed to draw a picture on the ground.
It was like looking at a live painting.
"MASTER LENO!" shouted James suddenly, he had to be quick, it would be much easier to stop the monsters that had lost their commander, he had to bring down the High Chimera.
"YOU!" shouted Leno, he had seen James before. Even if he didn't know who this young man was, something in his heart told him that he had to be protected.
No one knew what was going on.
