Capítulo 122: Scales of Fortune

The screeches of the approaching birds sounded as we readied our weapons. I was the first to dash forward since I was the only one who could fly naturally. As I felt Asher's magic gather around him and Lucius, I reached the first eagles.

They weren't called giant eagles for no reason – they were as large as a small van and they were fast. Much faster than what I thought. As soon as I was close enough, they extended their claws, revealing their sharp, deadly talons. One of them could easily tear my head off if I wasn't careful.

As they dove towards me, the sunlight reflected off their talons. I narrowed my eyes and with a powerful beat of my wings, brought myself to the same height as the first few birds. I extended my hand as magic gathered in my palm. Several volleys of Dark Bolts leapt towards the large birds approaching me. As they got hit with the dark magic, they screeched in pain and fell to the forest below.
