Bunch Of Wimps

"They are here."
The moment Aita said that, Zack channeled his mana.
Boom!
He threw his spear and a terrible gust flew towards the forest of trees.
Crack! c***k! c***k!
Booom!
Thud!
Several trees were decimated and fell to the ground.
Zack's expression turned grim as his attack seemed to have caused no damage.
It was a really quick and strong attack and no one was hit…
Which means their enemies were stronger than the ones he fought back then.
"Tch! Annoying! Hiding like cowards when they have the advantage of numbers."
Aita uttered with a disgusted expression.
"Stop provoking them!"
Selena said, shocked by Aita's words.
"Shut up, lunar princess, and look."
Aita smiled while channeling her mana.
"What lunar princess…?"
Buuuuzzzz!
"Njord Wind…"
Aita murmured and as the tattoo on his left hand shone with a dark green hue.
Swoooooosh!
The dark green wind violently swayed the trees.
Rustle!
The noise of people moving quickly in the forest could be heard.
There was no doubt that they were alarmed by Aita's attack.
Putting his left palm before him, he made a sweeping motion..
"...Blades!"
Boom!
A huge explosion sounded as sharp blades of wind destroyed everything before Aita.
Whoooosh!
Crack!
Booom!
The trees were torn down, the leaves and branches were flying away at high speed.
Smoke and dust filled the vision before them, so Aita and the others couldn't see what had happened.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
A clapping sound echoed as the dust slowly dissipated.
"That was a powerful attack, I have to say."
Clomp!
A masked man came forward and behind him seven other masked people followed.
Aita narrowed his eyes, looking at them.
The seven men behind had several cuts on their clothes and blood oozed out in some places.
They were injured but, unfortunately, it was nothing serious.
As for the man in the front who seemed to be the leader, he didn't have a single scratch on him.
Aita could tell that he was extremely strong.
'I can't beat him alone'
Aita thought as he clenched his fists hard.
Before, he wouldn't have cared and attacked, but now he had a clearer mind thanks to Orion and Aita's traits.
He knew that the only one who could fight him was Zack.
No.
He was sure that Zack could beat him, but the problem was the seven henchmen.
Though they were weaker than their leader, Aita couldn't let his guard down against them.
The leader stared at Aita's dark green eyes with sharp eyes behind his mask.
"You…are not with them, right ? You dont look like the personal guard of a Royal."
"Shut up. There is no way I would be the guard of a damn noble."
Aita spat disdainfully.
Aita hated nobles because of Soren's influence.
It was rather ironic as Soren himself was treated as royalty because his father was a king.
But since his mother was the fourth wife, he was treated like an extra among his siblings.
His mother, Vanadis, had no family and was not famous, so the others made fun of them by saying they were not descended from the gods of Asgard.
Especially women, who were very jealous of his mother.
She had beauty, a legendary husband and was a legend among women.
Who wouldn't want to become the wife of the legendary King Ragnar Lothbrok?
Ragnar's first three wives all came from famous families. They were like princesses on that continent.
But what about Vanadis?
She was a commoner, hence the anger and jealousy of women.
As for the men, they were just l*****g the boots of his three women for their beauty and background. So they avoided Vanadis because she was of no use to them.
Though not all of them were like that.
Vanadis was still the most powerful woman with Lagertha back then.
She was respected by some, but the majority hated her.
That's why Soren hated all those nobles on his continent.
Whether it be the nobles of the Britannia continent or the nobles of his native continent.
How many times had he, Vanadis and Runa been humiliated by them ?
Countless times.
Just because Vanadis was not a good match for Ragnar Lothbrok, who apparently descended from Odin himself.
But for Soren, it was just a bullshit story created by nobles just to show off the authority and magnificence of nobles.
The nobles of Britannia weren't better either.
Those he met during his past life all had several screws loose in their heads.
Psycho.
They loathed them just because of their belief in different gods.
They would also justify any of their actions by hiding behind their gods.
It was totally repulsing for Soren.
As Aita let out these words coming deep from his heart, Selena glared at him.
She understood that he hated the nobles, but why was he putting them all in the same bag ?!
She knew that some nobles were rather peculiar...but some of them were good people.
"Oh, so you hate nobles ? Then why are you defending the Lunarstella Imperial Princess ? She is the incarnation of nobility, you know ?"
The leader said in a playful tone.
He saw how Aita was strong, so he tried to bring him to his side.
He wasn't particularly afraid of Aita, it was just to finish his work quickly.
He was already late after all because of Zack.
'That damn Lord Commander...'
He couldn't help but curse Zack.
The day of the ambush, he sent hundreds of veteran assassins. They were all strong but Zack killed them all.
Though his dead comrades helped him, Zack did the most damage.
Even now, he couldn't help but sweat because of his presence.
Zack was in the top three fighters of the Lunarstella Empire after all.
Thinking about that, he waited for Aita's answer.
"Well...I would rather fight with nobles than ally myself with a bunch of wimp b*tches."
Aita said, putting his hand on his mouth in a thinking stance.
It would have been good if not for his previous words.
"What...?"
The leader let out a low voice.
"This guy..."
Selena palmed her face.
Narvi, for the first time, was happy with Aita's answer.
Zack shook his head, exasperated by Aita's behavior in this situation.
"I see you have chosen deat-"
"Shut the f**k up with your third-rate lines and fight."
Aita cut off the leader of his line, which further enraged him.
His seven mates behind weren't that different from their leader.
No, rather they wanted to tear apart Aita right now.
They put their initial objective of killing Selena aside for the time.
"Kill them."
The leader said in an icy tone.
It wouldn't take a genius to understand that he was very angry.
Whooosh!
The seven people nodded and their figures blurred.
"They are coming, be ready!"
Zack shouted, raising his black spear.
"Yes!"
Behind Zack, Selena nodded as she squeezed her silver spear's handle hard.
Narvi was just behind her with a ragged breathing. He was obviously nervous and scared.
In front of the three of them was Aita.
Both his hands were holding swords.
His expression turned cold as he raised his senses to the maximum.
"Now."
BOOOOOM!
