Chapter 93: Eneht in the battle between the Shades and Vao He was called ‘Lucky Seven,’ in honor of his near-complete mastery of the 7 Lucky Strikes technique&8221; Bella’s voice was full of pride,

"He achieved the rank of Captain in the Golden Moon Mercenary Alliance after reaching the peak of Lord Class, nearly Pseudo-King While he couldn’t be co experts that can fight King Class experts, his abilities and techniques end&8221;

Dorian listened to her words attentively He gave her an encouraging nod as she spoke

‘The war between the Vao, huh?’ Helena had told hi She later explained, a little, that there had been a great war, and that they died in an invasion from the Shade Co to

His heart went out to her Despite her physical nature and powerful strength, Dorian felt that she was far too kind for this world She’d suffered so reat man&8221; Dorian returned

"He was&8221; Bella said, s somewhat sadly,

"He still is&8221; She corrected herself,

"He just has lost a bit of his edge The injuries he suffered eventually took their toll, as I told you earlier He lost alth due to so I believe is related to Luck Magic&8221;

"Oh?&8221; Dorian replied, rubbing his chin,

"Is it not curable?&8221;

Bella shook her head and shrugged,

"Without infor it is almost impossible Believe me, Dorian, I’ve tried We just don’t knohat to do to help hihed, frustrated

TINK

Abruptly, a s both Dorian and Bella They both looked down in surprise, staring at the shard of wood It had broken up from the deck out of nowhere

The wood on the deck, and on the entire ship, was ically enhanced and extremely durable, resistant to impacts For part of it to randomly splinter was very odd

Bella bent down to pick it up, perturbed

WHOOSH

Just as she was bending over to pick up the splinter and look at it, a h the air exactly where she had been standing

THUNK

The sword slammed into the wooden ship and sank all the way into the floor, cracking the deck and throwing up shards of wood Its movement was so fast it was a blur even in Dorian’s eyes

Dorian and Bella froze for a split second, staring at the sword in astonishment

An instant later, Bella spun around in the direction it ca aloud,

"We are under attack!&8221;

"How did that miss?!&8221; Hadron’s jaw dropped in astonishment as he looked at the result of his spell, his hands held out to the side

He had just cast one of his favorite Spells, Collision Magic: Collision Blade Collision Magic was a derivative of Ie attacks

His Collision Blade Spell forh, durable steel at roughly 1,500 miles per hour forward The technique was incredibly potent in regards to surprise attacks and could cause a huge ae

Yet, at the moment that he had launched his spell, just as he sent it forward, his target had, for so him to miss due to sheer luck

"She studies soic Who knows? Our cover is blown&8221; David’s voice echoed out as he grabbed ahold of Hadron

"What now?&8221; The Peak Lord Class Wizard asked Hadron, the leader of the team

"Whatever We attack Move!&8221; Hadron’s voice turned into a yell as he waved his hand, co on to rush forward

WHOOSH

They shot through the air, on a direct collision course for the floating wooden ship at the end of the caravan

"Prepare for enemy attack! Ladies, it’s time to WAKE UP AND READY ARMS!&8221;

Bella transfore of the situation The air around her tre as she went into full readiness

In mere seconds, all the female warriors and Wizards that were part of Bella’s party filed out fro onto the deck So but a nightgown and a sword

At the saood dozen or so guards that were already on the ship They all orn grey armor and set up into formation on the brow of the ship Meuards hired to protect each ship in the Fast Caravan

"Here they come!&8221; Bella’s warriors and Wizards split up into their own for at the center while a pool of guards spread out, protecting thelow, some type of unknown spell

"Get below deck Dorian!&8221; Bella spared a single yell for Dorian as she turned her focus to the south, where a huge chunk of rock was crashing straight towards them

Dorian stumbled backwards till he was next to the mast, his eyes wide as he looked around He zeroed in on the rock that was charging towards theht could ures on the rock, all braced for i to collide with us? Infor a brief moment that he could just transform into a forht, I’ hiht exposefor us Anoht in a quandary

In the few seconds that Dorian took to think, the boulder crossed the distance between the ship

And collided

BOOOM!

Dorian was flung off his feet, blasted backwards as the giant rock slammed into the ship Enormous chunks of wooden shrapnel shot off into the air, a sickening crunch echoing out as the entire boat tilted dangerously to the right

Dorian’s body whipped through the air, s into the side of the ship He felt more than heard the wooden deck crack beneath his back as he bounced off it painfully

He sailed towards the edge of the boat, about to pass over it His eyes opened wide as he saw this, ignoring the pain in his body

Just as he was about to fall off the ship, Dorian’s hand cut doards the wooden railing, reaching to grasp onto it

And missed

"Oh co

He fell co ship

His body free fell through the air, tu in the wind as he flipped over The speed he’d been knocked away at had prevented hiave up on hiding,

"Transforle For in size His hue, feathered broings He gained a sharp, black and yellow beak, where s up his head all the way down his spine

He grew froht to an expansive 4 ave off ware flames, as did the back of his head and spine

He felt powerful Agile The world around hi air But, instead, a world he could soar in and fly freely, one he was in complete control of He could feel the wind around him, the various paths he could take
