Capítulo 68: Chapter 68: A New Ally

Villin tried his best to help Amelia get the 'cuffs' off but no matter what they couldn't. The box seemed to be made out of full metal making it extraordinarily hard to break.

Villin felt slightly stupid for not taking the rifles from the guards they had taken out with them. If they did they might have a way to break it open after they left this place.

After two minutes of tugging and bashing the box against the floor they had still gotten nowhere and it was time to go.

Villin, Amelia, and Rein first made their way to the 'computer' they had seen. Amelia looked at it in wonder but there was no time to linger. Villin told the two of them to be careful and pointed his hand upward. Two seconds later a red ball of fire appeared in Villin's hand. Even though it surely wouldn't be capable of melting metal, it should be able to seriously mess up all the wiring.

He promptly threw the fireball toward the screen where the chatroom was displayed and as soon as it hit sparks came out of the machine. Two more seconds passed and a second fireball was thrown, this time Villin chose a place near the bottom left of the wall that seemed to have a lot of unprotected wiring.

As soon as the fireball hit electric bolts came out of the machine, one of them hit one of the typewriters which then got thrown back a meter. The sound the electricity made when it hit the floor was nearly as loud as a gunshot. By this point, the soldiers should have already found out the back room was empty but before just now they probably assumed they were headed for the city or the forest. Sadly this instantly changed when the gunshot-like sound sounded out a couple of times from inside of the warehouse.

"Shit!"

Even though Villin didn't expect the destruction of the machine to be silent, this certainly was a bit much. Himself, Rein, and Amelia quickly headed toward the door that headed toward the main warehouse, but they were all out of luck.

Before they even got there they heard a voice from behind the door.

"Johnson, kick the door down, Geralt, be prepared to fire alongside me. Let's go people!"

The trio hurriedly ran back, hoping to take refuge in the room where Amelia had been imprisoned, but just before they got to that door two things happened. Firstly, the sound of wood breaking came from behind them as Johnson kicked the door down. Just behind him were two other soldiers both aiming their rifles right at the group.

Just a few milliseconds later after this, a second situation occurred. A massive explosion took place blowing up the wall in front of Villin, Rein, and Amelia. Villin suddenly felt a great pressure arriving at the front of his entire body, it almost felt strange. But just as he thought that he got shot back a meter and the pain arrived. All three of them got knocked to the ground because of the explosion.

As for the soldiers a couple of meters away from them, even though they each took back a step they would soon recover.

Villin spat out a mouthful of blood before looking through the massive hole, it seemed it was all really done now. The enemy even blew up their own walls to get to them, there was no way they could defend against such an explosion.

But then the unimaginable happened, no soldier came out of the hole that was now filled with both regular dust and sawdust. Then, three dark orbs shot out of this dust. They were fast, incredibly fast and before Villin even realized it they had shot over them and hit the soldiers on their armor.

'Magic?!'

Villin was alarmed when he saw this, but he figured it would be useless, their spells just bounced off the soldiers' armor there was no wa-

When the three dark orbs hit the armor it stopped for a moment, but then it suddenly grew, within three seconds the black orbs encompassed each of the soldiers' upper bodies.

Then, another second later, the orbs became smaller in size again before disappearing completely. Three pairs of legs, three helmets, and three pieces of what seemed to be some sort of bulletproof vests all fell to the ground.

The upper bodies of the soldiers had completely disappeared, all that remained were the bits of armor and the legs that were spurting out blood occasionally.

Villin, Rein, and Amelia looked at this scene with bulging eyes. The spell arrived so fast it was impossible to counter, then it rapidly grew before instantly killing three people with ease.

All three of them stared at the hole in the wall, hoping to see a silver or golden robe signifying a teacher.

"Well get up then you three, time to get out of here."

Out of the mist came a man with messy brown hair and regular blue eyes. He looked about twenty and was wearing casual jeans and a denim jacket. He was also wearing a red hat with a brand symbol on it.

The man casually pointed what looked like a regular branch at each of them and they instantly felt a bunch better, the bits of internal damage caused by the explosion was mostly gone after just a second or so. The only wounds they still had were some splinters since they hadn't taken them out yet.

As if in sync, the three of them quickly jumped up. Villin was the one who answered the man. "Sure! Let's get out of here."

He had let down his guard. If this man wanted to kill them he could do so easily and time was tight. Villin didn't know how much magic power the black orbs consumed but it was probably quite a bit and Villin didn't know if he would be able to take out all of the soldiers present.

"There's a girl outside as well, she was messing with the vehi-" Just as he started to say this a second figure came from behind the first, it was Kayley.

"Guys, you're alright!" Kayley said this when she saw both Villin and Rein were alive but when she noticed Amelia she instantly got quite a bit paler, the bloodied face and missing eye were still quite terrifying.

"My dad came to get us, let's get out of here." Kayley turned a bit more serious as she told them of the identity of this man who looked no older than twenty.

Hope blossomed in everyone's eyes. Amelia also looked a bunch better as she felt a bunch safer instantly.
