The Alpha's Keeper

CXII: No Hesitation

The creature roared with force, and, transforming its arms into huge praying mantis blades, it tried to crush Joshua and Nate. This, taking two shields from their shadows, gave one to Joshua and both, stopping the attack, managed to support the power. Joshua held one and Nate the other, and in the center with speed, Seraphim got up and, raising her hand, she yelled.

“Ignis Maximum!”

From the tips of his fingers, two powerful fireballs flew in the direction of that man. He de-transformed and returned to his normal form, dodging the girl’s fireballs when, at ground level, he threw his arm, stretching it long to hold the ankle of the young woman.

“s**t!” Seraphim cursed as she held her fingers wrapped around her ankle, she thought of cutting her hand with a spell, but this subject’s fingers became sharp claws, and going through Seraphim’s ankle made her scream just before pulling her hand towards him.

“Come here!” He said and began to pull her arm, and Seraphim fell to the ground being pulled by the force of that man when Nate tried to stop her arm. Before Nate grabbed him by the entire edge of the arm, the man produced small, very sharp horns that would seriously injure anyone who could hold him.

Nate, without hesitation for a second, went through his hands to hold the arm and prevent this man from taking Seraphim. She saw him suffering and could not believe what she saw, and both saw how Joshua, with his spear, cut the arm of the creature who returned it without problems.

The pressure on Seraphim’s leg calmed down, and Nate released his arm. His wounds began to regenerate, little by little, the effect of Seraphim’s blood diminished, his regeneration ability diminished but smiling, he said, “Are you okay?”

She was injured in the ankle, but despite the pain, she would not stop smiling. In front of them, Joshua moving with speed, advanced with his spear towards his enemy but this preparing to take out four more arms from his back and turning them all into tentacles with blades at the ends smiled, Eleanor from behind Joshua raised his hands and said, “Delusio!”

Joshua heard what the young woman was saying, and next to her, another image of him appeared. In a few seconds, six images of him were running all right towards the creature, and Joshua, smiling, began to move in all directions.

The tentacles tried to pierce through the werewolf, but the images of him were quite confusing. Two of them transformed into a wolf while the others remained in their normal form. The creature could barely follow the movements of one when two of them leaped towards him, moving a tentacle horizontally and attacking both, but neither of them was real.

One below him came to his defense and, with his spear, pierced his chest. When the spear pierced the chest, Joshua smiled. The man prepared all the tentacles to go through them, but the werewolf, without moving, had no concern, one of the figures turned into a wolf appeared on the creature, and the creature ignored it, but that was not an image. It was Joshua’s wolf that could now separate from his body, and with an unhealthy speed, he sliced ​​all the tentacles with his claws as well as the creature’s head and then joining Joshua, he jumped to everything he gave to get away for Seraphim from a distance will say.

“Ignis Maximun!”

From the young woman’s arm, a fireball appeared, but it grew until it could not, and when it was shot, she began to completely calcine the creature when Nate screamed, “Eat that, Joe!”

They all saw Nate, and he said with a smile, “That name fits him!”

Her body burned instantly, and Seraphim looked at her friends in surprise, the way they fought the trust they had, that group had gone through a lot to abandon her and crying she said, “I’m sorry! She lost her way for a minute. Uro Maximae!“

And raising her hands, her eyes glowed black as the flames that covered Joe turned black and intensified. She spoke quietly, she said, “Sorry! That will not kill him, but it will surely delay it... Death told me that there is no way to kill him. Only a united death spell from my sisters and me could achieve it!"

Everyone looked at her and took a deep breath, and they saw the pile of flames in front of them. Seraphim was injured, and even though none had been seriously injured, the pressure of fighting with such a strong opponent and the weight of the previous fights hit a lot.

“You could go!” Joshua’s mother said, accompanied by Erika, who entered through the roof as Joshua had done, everyone saw what happened, and no one had a solution.

Seraphim said when she saw her, “If we leave, he will be here, and he will attack all the people who stay!”

Eleonor saw what Edith asked, “Can’t you seal it like your sister did, Dominic?”

Edith shook her head and said, “Those stamps were not put by Stella, and we do not have that magic too!”

The flames were ebbing, and everyone was preparing to fight again when Joshua calmly said, “We have no other choice! Edith, take them all. I’ll fight him and give him as much time as I can.”

They all looked at Joshua, and Nate stepped forward, he said, “I’ll help you! Between the two of us, we will win more time!"

From the flames, the creature rose, and seeing the two men in front of him, he said, “They are actually very annoying!”

Joshua smiling, said, “And what you lack.”

Two huge cuts on the creature’s back appeared as Mathew and Seth walked through the door to stand next to Joshua, Seth looking straight ahead, said, “Is that the new enemy Chief?”

Joshua firmly saw them and said, “Yes! The mission is to buy time. Let’s go! Nate covers the others’ escape!”

Nate nodded, and seeing Seraphim, she shook her head, saying, “I will not leave without you!”

Joshua and the wolves began to attack the creature, changing shape, repelling them. The gifts of Joshua and Seth helped to attack from a distance and keep the creature occupied. Erika, angry at the result of the fight with the vampire, said, “I will not leave!”

And taking the bow from her, he began to collaborate. Nate tried to convince everyone to leave but stubborn as they were, they kept her position. Edith watched everything that happened, and seeing her ring, she said, “Only one person can enter!”

Nate looked at her, and she, with a smile, said, “We don’t have to go, and he can go!”

With that, she took the ring and gave herself what Nate said, “That portal opens for thirty seconds. If we can get it inside and make it take thirty seconds to come back, we can get rid of it!"

Nate saw the ring and, smiling, said, “Good!”

Handing the ring to Edith, he said with utmost seriousness as he looked ahead, “Prepare it. We will push it! Eleonor!”

Eleonor nodded with a forced smile, and connecting the minds of all those who fought in the front, she said, “We have a plan, and everyone pays attention!”

She explained to them in plan and running up the wall with her limbs transformed into a wolf Seth before launching two slashing waves at the creature she said, “Brilliant, Eli! Boss, we can do it!"

Joshua was looking at Nate, as he said, “Nate covers the rear. We will do it!”

Nate, without understanding what Joshua was referring to, Mathew and Seth lined up in a fraction of a second, and next to her, Erika was on guard too. Joshua saw her, and nodding, they all ran off instantly, transforming into a wolf.

The four wolves, all of different sizes and colors, ran at full speed towards the creature. It smiled, was confident in its abilities, and attacked with its multiple arms. It tried to attack the wolves, but they moved with such precision that it was impossible to follow them.

Joshua roared with such power that the creature felt the effect of him, but when they did, the other three wolves disappeared.

Joe tried to follow them with his eyes, but it was impossible, the first one he found was Mathew who with his jaws cut his left foot, when he looked on that side Seth fell from above cutting with his claws the back of his neck leaving it open and his Erika’s back with all the power that her wolf form could generate, hitting with such force that it sent it towards Joshua who, jumping forward, took out his claws and sliced ​​his competition body.

Her torso and his head were detached from his limbs when the exhausted but together wolves howled. Once in front, Seraphim advanced with injured feet, but raising her hands, and then she said, “Bellum Tempestas!!”

And a strong blizzard appeared in the air, driving with force the entire dismembered body of Joe, Edith threw the ring where he would fall, and the portal appeared instantly. Everyone shouted and celebrated when they saw their parts fall to the other side of the portal. Everyone was happy and saw how the portal closed. No one expected his arm to be stretched in the shape of a blade in the direction of Edith.

Joshua ran at full speed but could not reach when the arm crossed the woman’s abdomen, but it was not Edith. This was Joshua’s mother, who got between the arm and Edith and was pulled at maximum speed into the portal. When colliding with the portal touched the surface, and his body instantly disintegrated on the ground. The portal closed and all gaped saw how Joshua’s mother was disintegrated before her eyes. The victory lost its flavor in that instant, and the alpha let out a howl of fury.
