The forest was unnaturally dark and quiet.
While chasing after the carriage, the trackers remained constantly vigilant of their surroundings.
Their eyes were tense and alert.
Charlotte was no exception.
Unlike the others, she was enjoying the current tension, but she was certainly aware that the atmosphere had changed.
That premonition materialized soon after.
Kwahrrrrr-
Not far in front of them, a massive pillar of fire shot up.
To be precise, it was a wall of fire.
Kihiing-!
Startled by the blinding light, the horses instinctively stopped.
Some even rolled on the ground.
But no one paid attention to them.
What is that?
Fire? Did someone set a fire?!
Everyone was dazed by the swaying curtain of flames.
It must be that witch girls doing! Shes trying to shake us off her trail like this.
But to actually set a fire Does she not plan to escape the forest again?
The wall of fire was furiously burning the surrounding trees.
Only withered branches stuck out, and the grass was scorched.
Only then did some realize that this forest was the perfect condition for fire to spread.
Itll take time, but we can go around it. Everyone keep your wits about you-
It was at that moment when Oleg was speaking.
Kwahrrrrr-
Another pilume of fire shot up.
This time, it was at a slanted side from the first wall.
The flames of the first wall were subsiding, but the burning trees still smoked heavily.
Doesnt seem like the time to worry about curses. I have a bad feeling. Lets give up the chase and turn back now.
Cowards! Those who want to leave can go! Were going to keep going!
As the trackers split into two groups,
Charlotte was still staring at the wall of fire with trembling eyes.
That bastard!
She instinctively knew it was Ian who created those flames.
She didnt have much evidence, but she trusted her intuition.
A Blade Dancer!
An existence that could only come from fairy tales.
If he could wield such magic, it was no wonder what happened to Kyle and Kenneth.
The reason Charlotte inwardly decided to chase after them even if she burned to death in this forest,
Kwahrrr-
Yet another pillar of fire rose up.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
This time, it was far behind them.
No way? Thats insane?
Isnt that the way we came from?
The mercenary trembled, unable to even scream as the dagger pierced deep into his neck.
Why are you just staring blankly? Follow me, damn it! Hey? Hey?
When his companion noticed his death, Ian was already running through the trees.
With a drop of chaos infused and amplified by the gusting wind blades, his movements were almost unaffected by gravity.
It was just a matter of not falling with his reflexes.
Ian scanned the battlefield.
Indeed, theres nothing unsatisfactory about causing chaos and fear.
The owner of this cursed forest would surely be enraged.
But now, Im not in a position to pick and choose.
Kwajik-!
As Ian dropped another dagger onto someones head, he looked up.
Next to him, a knight with wide-open eyes.
Nice to see you, Jamie.
Y-You?
I have a little gift for you.
Confirming the return of the swamps resentment to his fingertips, Ian reached out towards him.
A sinister sensation swept past Jamies face.
What is this?
As the original form of the resentment returned, it plunged its teeth into Jamies exposed neck.
Ian erupted as if there was nothing more to see.
Without realizing he was under a curse, Jamie screamed.
Above! Hes up there! That damn ghostly swordsman is here-!
With that cry as his last, his vision began to blur and mix.
Rising flames and raging ghosts.
While Jamie was engulfed in confusion.
Crossbows! Shoot crossbows!
There!
The trackers, hearing his cry, finally looked up.
Amongst the malicious smoke and flames, a faint figure was darting through.
Pishooo-
As the crossbow bearers fired bolts, not a single one grazed Ian.
By the time they were hastily reloading, Ian was already out of their sight.
Where are you going to escape to?
He headed towards Oleg and the black knights to avoid the flames.
Ians pupils burned red.
A drop of chaos mingled with his magic.
With a swoosh, the spell was complete within seconds.
Countless dancing flames blossomed.
As Ian sent them towards Olegs direction, he leaped down onto a low branch.
Kwagwagwang-!
Danger! The trees are falling!
This damned bastard!
The explosion and screams, frantic horses.
