Waskin City
A week passed since the Church made a full move of their knights. Until today, the people still did not know what they were doing, but the atmosphere in the city was not that good.
First of all, Beast Stampede was near. A big horde of monsters and beasts would pour down to the city from the Orin Forest. The people experienced the same thing yearly, they were used to this but the anxiety of their home would be destroyed, it never stopped haunting them.
Second, the big news came out from the City Lord, The Adventurer Guild, and the Church. The three biggest forces in the city announced something that brought great unrest to the city. They declared Tang Shaoyang and his party as Hell-Level Criminal.
That was the most notorious level for criminals, meaning the involved people have committed something grave that was unpardoned. The three big forces did not specify what the party had done, but the three forces had a high-credibility in the people's hearts. They believed them and now, the fact that one of the most notorious criminals could live amongst them, brought fear to many people.
Third, strange rumors started to circulate the moment the three big forces announced the Tarrior Party as the Hell-Level Criminal. The rumors came from the north of Waskin City, saying heads of Guardian Knight and Royal Knights would fall from the sky.
The city could not know the truth behind the rumor, but one thing for sure. It truly happened, the guards of the northern gate experienced that.
Four Guards stationed on the top of the gate, the city guards were not only the only group. The Royal Knight and the Guardian Knight also guarded the gate together with them.
"Will he stop, or will more heads come today?" A young guard asked the older guard with his shivering voice. The young guard kept scanning the quiet Orin Forest.
"More heads will come for sure," a slightly older guard replied as he scanned the Orin Forest. Different from the young guard, he was not terrorized by the heads as he managed to keep his composure, "One battalion Royal Knight and one battalion Guardian Knight entered the forest, but they never returned. I was on duty on the Templar Knight's fight day. Until today, only a hundred heads are delivered back, there should be more heads."
Hearing that, the young guard's body shivered when he heard the terror would not in this short time. The city guard was not a popular job but it gave you high pay since not many people interested in the job. The job was not popular because they had to face the Beast Stampede. The young guard was tempted by the high pay hence here he was.
"The Lord prohibited us to spread this, stop with your big mouth," an older guard tried to reprimand the slightly older guard, but the latter shrugged calmly, "We are prohibited indeed, that's why I told him because he's also a guard. We can't spread that to common folk, but I don't break the order too since he can't tell anyone about that."
The three other guards were calm, the Guardian Knight and the Royal Knight's presence were enough to assure them. However, the young guard was still nervous, his eyes never left the Orin Forest.
"Huh!? What's that?" He then noticed three dots were flying toward them. It flew from afar, deeper in the Orin Forest. He could not identify the flying object immediately.
Then someone hit him on the head, "What are you doing, raise your shield, and get ready to fight!" The older guard slapped the inexperienced young guard. Only then the young guard hastily raised his bronze shield toward the incoming projectile.
The three projectiles showed no sign of slowing down, it was accelerated toward them. Yes, the three projectiles shot toward them.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
One of the projectiles hit the young guard's shield. His hand was trembling slightly from the impact.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The sound of metal rang after the projectile fell to the stone floor. The young hard looked down to identify the unknown projectiles. His eyes widened in shock as he immediately fell on his butts while shrieking in terror, "Hiiiii!!"
It was a head, a head in the red helmet. The young guard could see a terrorizing visage from the head before the head died. The eyes were still open and the skin started to turn blue.
"The new batch of today has arrived, huh!?" The slightly older guard commented from the side while looking at the head. He had a frown on his face from looking at the disturbing head, but he was not scared like the young guard.
"More are coming!" The older guard was not bothered with the head as he noticed more projectiles that were more likely also heads coming. However, this time the projectiles did not target the guard. Another seven heads in red helmets passed above them.
As the seven heads were about to pass the wall, seven fireballs shot toward the seven heads in the air. The Mages of the Waskin Family came to help them to take care of this issue. The guards could not take care of the projectiles which passed above them even with arrows.
They had to deploy the mages so the heads won't come to the city. The City Lord was very angry with the head terrors hence mages were dispatched. Yesterday's head terror's attempt was prevented thanks to the mages.
The four guards watched the seven heads fly in seven directions and seven fireballs flew toward the seven heads. Just as the fireball was about to hit the flying head, lightning shot up from the Orin Forest.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The seven fireballs exploded in the air as the lightning hit them. The older guard had his eyes widened and looked back to the forest. He was trying to locate where the lightning came from.
The mages shot another fireball, but the lightning shot out from the forest once again. He noticed the lightning came from the deep of the Orin Forest. Once again, the fireballs exploded mid-air.
At this point, the fireballs were alarming the people in the city which had the opposite effect the City Lord wanted. The City Lord tried to hide the head terror as it could hurt his reputation.
More fireballs were coming, each mage shot three fireballs this time. However, more lightning strikes were coming too. The lightning countered all fireballs easily and accurately.
The older guard saw the seven heads fall to the city. On top of that, where the heads fell were the crowd gathered. He immediately went to the emergency bell and rang it immediately. However, it was too late because the scream rang. He could hear the screams coming from everywhere.
Usually, the head terror would stop after the culprit sent the ten heads. But soon the older guard noticed that more heads were coming. Fourteen heads flew from the forest to the city.
That was a war between the fireball and the lightning. But it was just the same scene as before where all the fireballs got countered. Fourteen heads fell into the city, creating more chaos to the city.
When he thought the head terror was over but more heads were coming. This time, twenty heads were coming. The same scene repeated, all the fireballs once again countered by the lightning.
"Just who we are fighting against!?" The old guard muttered.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
