Chapter 224 (2/2)

I wanted to end it quickly but the beast recovered faster than I had expected it to The grizzly rolled back up to its feet and immediately lashed out with its four clawed arms

‘Arthur, do you need help?’ Sylvie’s voice sounded inon ReadReadNovelFullonlineco out for Durden or er

I swayed, sidestepped, and pivoted, cleanly dodging the barrage of claws that created divots in the dirt around rizzly atte it, however, I held up a pal the technique that Elder Camus had shown me, I created a vacuum just above my open palm and received the full extent of the attack I couldn’t disperse the force of the rizzly’s powerful claws coround and h to throw off the beast’s center of gravity and leave him wide open In the tirizzly’s back legs to the ground so it wouldn’t fly and cause casualties on our side, and condensed several layers of swirling wind around h to make the trained soldiers nearby recoil but when round shook from the i soround, but it was enough to kill the high-ranking beast

‘Wasn’t that a bit excessive?’the irizzly’s coat seemed to have been affected by the Alacryan’s corruption I wouldn’t have been able to kill it without at least doing that ather my breath, I continued my search for Durden and my father

Despite the lack of conjurers in the frontline, it was hard finding es were closer they were to the ground, it wasn’t just one or two earthen spells that I spotted in the distance And knowing Durden and his unruly strength despite being a conjurer, I kneasn’t back near the Wall with the other casters and archers

Letting out a deep breath, I apologized toup inside me made it hard to tamp down my emotions

‘It’s okay,’ Sylvie consoled Her voice was gentle, but I could still feel a tinge of sadness leaking out

Pro myself to make it up to my ever-faithful bond after this was all over, I continued my search

Smoke, fire, debris, abandoned weapons, and the corpses of both men and beast decorated the once barren field As limited as my vision was, I keptto discern my father amidst the roars of beasts, the cries of soldiers, the hu of metal, but there was little more that I could do

My gut told me it was Trodius that had rescinded my plan, since the other two captains were transparent in valuing their troops over the Wall

It was only the thought of findingsure they were okay—-that kept rounded I had to reested was only that… a suggestion

Despite the scenery blurring past me as I flew, time seemed to slow like a thick viscous fluid Sounds were ainst ot closer and closer though,the world through a thick glass jar as I barely made out Sylvie as she held me back in her embrace I could hear her worried cries but I couldn’t
