Chapter 99: Attack on Camp (1)

[1]

~

The rays of sunshine fell on the entire camp place, wisps of warmness swept through the air like an elegant whisker of vapor.

Various things were going on at the campsite, the people who were looking out for the entire night took this chance to sleep as most of the people had woken up from their beauty slumber.

While the night guards were sleeping, the huntsmen had woken up and had already gone to look for food to eat during the night, while the breakfast was pretty much the same as what they ate last night.

Rael had been kind enough to setup a fridge by using his ice deviant magic, he formed a type of ice that wouldn't melt for days if not weeks. He called this branch of heavy ice element, Eternal Winter.

It was called that because his ice was very different from the normal maybe even one of a kind due to him merging spiritual elements and mana along with wisps of divinity and chaos energy to form Ice.

Speaking of Ice, he hadn't yet checked his Winter Flames but he had promised himself that he would do so very soon.

Currently he was sleeping like a log on the branch of the willow tree.

Welp that was until he fell on the ground due to the constant turning and rolling.

Upon falling, his eyes finally fluttered open, upon opening them he could see everything blurry. He could see a feminine body, great curves everything in portions.

He smiled like a person under the influence of weed and pulled the woman in his arms and went for a kiss.

"Kyaa~" The female shrieked.

"Snakey~"

Rael's eyebrows furrowed, he was still under the influence of his sleep so he wasn't aware of anything, he would most likely forget about the kiss.. most likely.

After the kiss, he again fell asleep on the ground this time while the woman ran away blushing.

Sona's Pov-

I ran away as soon as possible, my face was flushed red and the corners of my ear lobes were almost pink.

What just happened?!

No no no!

Did that unruly boy just kiss me?!

God No!

Ughhhhhh!

I sat on my favorite rock staring at the blue skies and white clouds, I had often wondered why skies are blue and clouds, white, but the answer to it was too scientific and didn't have a philosophical reason.

A sigh escaped my mouth, the kiss wouldn't leave my mind, did that bastard do it on purpose?

I once again felt my fingers touching my lips, the taste of his lips wasn't that bad on the contrary it tasted quite good.

Are all kisses like that or is it because he is different?

I felt my face go red again, fuck why is the weather so hot today?!

A cold wind passed.

Aaaarghh someone help me I don't understand love at all!!

Wait... wait.. wait..!!

DID HE MAYBE MISTAKE ME FOR SOMEONE ELSE?!

I mean I recall him calling me snakey... is snakey some kind of pet name?

Damn this is so messed up!

I almost feel like he is playing with my emotions.

"Class president! Class president!!" A girl came running frantically.

My facial expression immediately became that of a scowl which eventually turned into a frown.

Why is this girl running like a mindless bimbo? And yes I can hear! You don't have to scream! Wait does he think that I am also a bimbo because I scream?

Oh no!

Ughhhhh!! I hate working... well at least ill have something to make my mind distracted.

"What is Tsubaki?" I asked in my usual kind voice, I must say I have become quite good at maintaining my acting until it comes down to Rael.

Even his name brings an involuntary blush to my face.

Scoundrel! Pervert! Bastard! Handsome!!

Cough cough... wrong word.

"The hunters that had gone this morning returned with injuries on their bodies!" She yelled in an obnoxiously anxious way.

Did I just hear this right?

"Can you repeat?" I asked her.

"The hunters returned injured."

Hmm, I shouldn't jump to conclusions.

"Alright let's go I want to visit them, I will ask them questions myself," I replied to her reassure her and myself.

Sona and Tsubaki walked towards the leaf tent which was holding the injured huntsmen.

The tent was filled with many students all of who had come to know what event had taken place.

Healer specialists were taking care of the injured students who had burns on their bodies and entire organs missing which were regenerating at an extremely slow speed.

The students were groaning with pain, Sona almost puked when she saw the huge amount of blood and missing organs but then quickly started to circulate her mana across her body for a calming effect.

"How is their condition?" She asked one of the healers.

The healer nodded and gave an entire medical report on the damage on their body but immediately declared that their life was in absolutely no danger and that she could interrogate them all in some time.

After a while the hunters sat up straight on the bed, color returned on their previously pale bodies, all of them looked a bit scrutinized under the gaze of Isera.

"So mind explaining what happened?" Sona asked while tapping her foot trying to bring out an aura of intimidation.

"Yes, class president." The leader of the huntsmen, Logan sighed as he began to explain.

"While we were on our way to find some beasts, we were ambushed by wanderers, who apparently wanted to raid on our camp and claim all our points for themselves, it seemed that they have already raided a few camps. Now they will be coming to raid ours, they also took Sushi as a hostage." The leader in the end almost broke into sobs.

When setting camp, each class president would have to mark a particular place in the camp with the scanner watch which would hold all the points in collective.

That was the main reason for raids and defense, a group of people could claim the points by just plundering.

"Hmm, this is quite bad... it's extremely bad..." Her face paled, a student of theirs was taken hostage and nobody even realized until Logan informed them.

Secondly, if they had raided other camps before then it was quite worrisome.

What happened to those previous camp people?

Maybe they were all killed so that they wouldn't be able to grow their power by making alliances and then take revenge.

That was the con, the pro was that the raiders would have many points of their own which they would be able to raid themselves.

But then the hard part came, raid teams are small in number and if only a handful were able to destroy entire camps then how strong would be the defense which was the majority students in their particular camp.

Damn! This is a survival assessment for a reason!

It was very strategic, a lot of mind play came into question... its almost as if they were doing this for military reasons.

Are they trying to find suitable and proficient people to enlist them in the demon army?

Is war coming? No no... that is stupid.

Shit! This is a fucking game of capture the flag!

Many different thoughts went across Isera's head, this was a grave situation, one wrong step and everything would be ruined.

Entire lives depended on her decisions, the only good side was that they had Rael.

But would he even help them? He seemed like quite a shameless and calculative person.

So it was another reason for her to prepare, lives were at stake!

She got out of the tent and stood on her favorite rock calling everyone to make an announcement.

"Alright, everyone! Listen up! There is a high chance that students stronger than us might show up in order to raid and claim our points. So go to the defense posts that I had given you all yesterday! I hope everyone remembers the defense posts! I repeat get to your positions!" She cried at the top of her voice.

"Trapsters! Archers! Main defense line! Main attack line! Mages! Healers!" She yelled in order to get them going at their respective places.

Right when she was shouting the many things she could pull out to make a grand plan and plan a good defense something happened.

*Boom!!*

A huge blast took place.

Smoke raised up in the air along with the dust which itched the eyes, the willow trees acting as defense were blown up, no one was even able to get to their positions, it took place before they could even do that.

They got no chance to prepare at all.

Time had already run out.
