章 52: Chapter 52: Helping and Heist (II)

|3rd POV|

The screaming of people can be heard throughout the Colosseum. However, the scream stops for a moment when they see two dragons and a twenty-meter-tall turtle appear in the arena, blasting all the Grimm that try to kill the civilians and the fighters.

"Alright, people! Run to the evacuation zone! Let us handle this problem."

Vale shouts and sees the people running to the evacuation zone. However, before he can join the fight, General James Ironwood takes the mic and says.

"Who are you? Identify yourself!"

Vale smiles at him and says.

"Don't worry. We are friends, and we are here to help."

"Identify yourself!"

Vale ignores him and takes out his pistol before firing it toward the incoming Grimm. His flame punches through the Grimm with ease, and he can feel something click in his head. His Glyphs have already recorded the type of Grimm he kills.

He grins and points his sword into the air. A second later, a familiar Glyphs appears, and a second later, a Nevermore appears from the Glyphs—twenty meters tall Nevermore with white feathers and a white aura.

"Attack"

The Nevermore releases a screech and takes flight. It flaps its wings, creating a feather rain that punches through other Grimm. It flies around, bombarding all Grimm below it, and stabs the Grimm that tries to attack it in the air.

"Martha! Nine O'Clock!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Martha commands Tarasque and sees a giant turtle jump to the other side of the colosseum with ease before releasing a beam of Sun Flame at the incoming Grimm, who tries to kill the civilians.

The students who stay in the arena look at the turtle in awe as their weapons fall from the sky. When their weapons arrive, they take it and start fighting all the Grimms near them. When they are done with the Grim near them, Vale lands next to Ruby and says.

"Alright, Students! It is time to evacuate!"

"But we can help!"

"Ruby Rose!"

Vale looks to the side and sees Doctor Bartholomew, one of the professors of Beacon Academy, look at Ruby with a stern gaze.

"This will be an event that goes down in history. I would prefer it if my students lived long enough to talk about it. Go."

The black-haired young woman hesitated for a second before nodding her head. She and the others follow the civilians and go through Tarasque, guarding them from any Grimm who dares to approach.

Bartholomew looks at Vale and says.

"I don't know who you are, but I need your help."

Vale grins and says.

"Sure! Let's kill these Grimms!"

In the evacuation zone, the situation is not better. The White Fangs use the Bullhead to transport land-based Grimm to the evacuation zone to kill as many people as possible. A giant Alpha Beowolf lands on the ground and starts running to the civilians.

However, before it can even reach them, a giant elephant with blue flames around it appears and squashes the Alpha Beowolf.

General Ironwood looks at the elephant in confusion and is about to attack it but stops when he sees the elephant is helping them against the Grimm.

However, his frown gets deeper when he sees a woman riding the elephant. This woman is Felicia, and she is entrusted to protect the people in the evacuation zone.

"Who are you?! Where are you from?! And from which organization are you coming?!"

Felicia smiles and says.

"We are from the Millefiore Family, dear general. We are here to help the masses. Don't worry. We are on your side."

James hesitates for a second because he doesn't know if what she says is right. However, after thinking for a few seconds, he decides to give her a chance because he knows he cannot protect all the civilians.

He gives her a nod and blasts all the Grimm coming on his way. After a couple of minutes of fighting, he can see the students arrive and help him and the woman fighting the Grimm. When they are done, he turns around, but to his surprise, the woman is gone.

He shakes his head and looks at the student.

The fight in the Colosseum is also done, leaving the two professors with Vale and Martha. Peter Port, Professor of Beacon Academy, is about to walk to Vale but stops when he sees a woman land next to Vale.

"My lord. The others are gone. We can start the second part of the plan."

"Very well. Martha, go with Felicia to the city and help the people there. I will go to Beacon and deal with the culprit behind this mess."

Felicia and Martha nod their heads and leave the Colosseum. They jump down the floating island to help the city.

Vale calls Shiro and Kuro to take him to the beacon. However, before he can do that, Peter walks forward and says.

"Wait! You are going to be a beacon, right?! Take us with you!"

Vale shakes his head and says.

"The city needs you two. Leave this to me. I will make sure the culprit pays for what she did."

Before Peter can say more, Vale sits on Shiro and takes flight to Beacon. Kuro splits into five and protects Vale and Shiro as they fly to Beacon. He even summons ten Griffons and five Nevermore for extra protection.

His reverse is big enough to summon all these Grimms without getting tired.

When he arrives at Beacon, Vale immediately enters the tower where the fight is happening. He uses the scent of fire through the tower and sees a man lying on the ground. His face is full of burn marks, and he is bleeding. This man is Ozpin, and he just got defeated by the newly awakened Fall Maiden.

"*cough* W-Who are you?"

"I am here to help."

Vale takes his Sun Flame Ring and places it on his body.

"Make sure not to lose the ring, okay? It will heal you while I take care of the culprit behind this."

Before Ozpin can say something, he follows the trail once again, and as he gets near, he hears an explosion, and the entire tower shakes. He runs to the top of the tower to see Cinder Fall about to kill Pyrrha Nikos.

However, before she can even get close to Pyrrha, Vale dashes forward and kicks Cinder with all his strength. Cinder's body hit the Wyvern strong enough to make the dragon grimm move a little but not enough to create a gap big enough for Cinder to fall to the ground.

Cinder grunt in pain and look at Vale who give her a mocking grin.

"Who are you?"
