As usual we were ready to go.
Standing in front of the city gates, Cross also arrived early.
It was an overcast day, with dark clouds covering the sky. I hope it wasn't going to rain halfway through the flight.
As usual, I jumped on Cross with my master and grabbed its warm feathers behind its back.
A new journey will begin from now on.
Following the whistling gale, we sailed into the dark sky.
The master's hair smells so good. With the previous experience, I don't have to ask the master's opinion anymore so I can reach out and wrap my arms around her waist.
The master said this is very warm, and I also feel the master's body is very soft.
Cross flew smoothly in the sky, and I also deliberately used magic to block the gale.
"Master."
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay to hold tighter, right?"
"Mhm."
The warmth reached to my master's back that my chest was close to. With the way my master indulged me, I almost forgot that I was once still a slave.
"Master."
"What’s going on?"
"Can you feel my heartbeat?"
"Yes."
It was beating for the master.
But I don’t say it out loud, it is too embarrassing.
I just leaned on my master's shoulder and smiled, while I could observe the corners of her mouth raised.
I would not have dared to talk to my master like this at first, but I blame my master for being too indulgent to me. No matter how close I came or how much I asked for more, the master agreed to it, so that I became like this now like a young girl in love. Now I will talk to my master about everything even if it's boring.
"Master."
"What happened?"
"Is it going to rain?"
"I don't know. It won't affect the trip if it rains."
The master doesn't get impatient with my nagging. She answers me very patiently like this every time.
So where did the master's aura of being indifferent go? Who cares? I just know that the master is getting gentler and gentler with me.
Overhead is a gray and black clouds, and underneath is the scenery of the mountains and rivers.
Cross's flight altitude is not very high. After all, it is not good if the lightning strikes us.
Ahead of us is a group of mountains, and evergreen coniferous forest for the hills decorated with green clothes.
But...
"Master!"
"What..."
I shouted before my master could say the whole thing.
"Watch out!"
Suddenly countless strips of golden light flashed out from all directions of the sky, cutting through the dull sky and interweaving into a huge net spilling down from the dome. I'm not sure how lethal these beams are, so I don't dare to rush directly up and break it. Besides I can't escape alone.
Cross flew immediately towards the low altitude. Fortunately, this light network is large, but the speed is as slow as the leaves withering.
I turned the sensitivity of the ears to the highest, and was amazed.
"Master..."
I did not have time to ask the master's permission, so I hugged the master and leapt from Cross. I quickly unfolded the light wings away from Cross.
I already didn’t have enough time to care about anything. The master did not care much about this action of mine, just frowning at Cross.
The bottom of the valley shot out colorful magic shells, and the blue light shield gathered around .
I wanted to dodge as possible as I could. If I could not dodge, I wanted to block it with the light shield.
The magic shells that exploded in the sky were as colorful and gorgeous as fireworks blooming.
Fortunately, I jumped down from Cross to attract the fire in time, otherwise it will certainly hurt Cross.
I moved my ears, and felt that the following seemed to have many troops in ambush us.
We continuously dodged the magic attack while flying towards the ground.
Why is this?
Generally speaking, this road is the main army of our demons traveled, and scouting teams have explored the road before the start of the expedition. How will there still be an ambush?
Although the master is not heavy, the light wings can not seem to bear the weight of two people. So I still intend to glide first landing on the ground out of safety.
Like a missile into the valley, and then...
"Boom!!!"
I held the master with all my strength to protect her. The blast of air wave to me as the center lifted dozens of meters circle of the woods, and the humans, who were ambush in the woods.
Smoke and dust arised, and light penetrated the smoke.
But inside the shield we were unharmed.
"Yiluodiya, don't worry about me yet."
Sitting on my knees, I looked at my master, who was calm.
I knew the master meant for me to go out and finish them off first.
"But master."
Who will protect the master in that case?
Who else can stop magic of this intensity but me who is so perverted?
"It's okay. I can support myself for a while."
The master showed a smile at me and stroked my hair comfortingly.
"With my absolute defense shield, I can defend against magic no matter how powerful it is, and it will buy you at least ten minutes."
"Good."
The blue light shield faded. I let go of the hands that embraced my master and jumped out of that circle, and the red light shield replaced my blue shield.
That's right. The master also has a certain strength. Even if someone attacks the master, she should be able to handle it.
My sensitive ears will not be too loud to withstand the sound. I do not have to worry that the sound is too loud and deafened me. Even if it is not a head-to-head duel in the battlefield, I can also detect where the human ambush is by analyzing the sound and spreading the perception network.
To my surprise, I could sense only a hundred humans.
Not that the others could hide themselves, but there were really only a hundred humans. And I felt that they were not simple, otherwise how could they cast such a large light net with the power of a hundred people?
Following the trajectory of the magic, I flung out the light blade with my hands.
There was no special sound emitted, and it seems to be blocked.
So which one to tackle first? For the first time I was in a muddle.
But I can not hesitate, the master is still waiting for me there.
I waved my light wings and randomly flew over at great speed of a human, using magic to raise the wind to blow away the leaves of that tree in front.
Then I kept using the magic ball bombing.
As the dust cleared, I could see that only a pile of meat paste left in that place.
Then I kept chasing after the humans who were ambushed in other places.
I think they must be very angry, because their magic can not hurt me at all. But they are destroyed by me easily.
Suddenly there was a signal in my heart where the master gave me the seal. Is that seal in effect at this time? The master seems to be in danger.
As I was in a daze, a beam... no, a golden beam of light formed by a dozen people's magic together shot through my chest.
The blood gurgled out, and the pain came, but this pain is nothing compared to the master crushed my kidneys personally.
I did not care to stand still and wait for the wound to heal itself. At this time I was on guard, so the beams could no longer hit me. I flew straight back to where the master was.
It was a human holding a long sword glowing with red light. He was about to swing it at the master's shield, and then, to my surprise, the shield shattered.
Ten minutes have not yet passed, the shield shattered. Isn’t it said that the the shield is absolutely defensive? How come it was so easily shattered?
"Master!"
The master immediately reacted, her hands against the front. The red light exploded between the master and the brave, instantly bouncing the brave to ten meters away.
I forgot again that the master is not weak.
I flew to the master's side, and the master was still unharmed. But I was still worried about my master, because the other party is the Brave.
I saw the real face of the Brave for the first time. It was a handsome young man.
"Cross..."
The master suddenly showed an extremely sad expression and gently called the Cross's name.
I heard Cross's sad cry falling from the sky, and it was a very mournful long whine.
I did not have time to feel more Cross's condition, but the Brave has continued to swing his sword straight at us.
Because the master behind me did not dodge but condensed light shield to block. However, I was pulled away from the master.
The sword in the Brave's hand turned back and then continued to slash at us.
The shield was instantly cut by the sword in the Brave's hand, and the tip of the sword passed under my chin. Fortunately, the master pulled me back once again in time, or my collar would have been damaged.
"Yiluodiya."
The Brave pronounced my name coldly.
A red light exploded between us and the Brave, and the Brave was bounced away from my master once again.
"Get me out of here."
The master's voice carried a slight anxiety.
"Don't even think about it."
I just unfolded the light wings ready to hold the master, but the Brave rushed to us. He used his long sword and stabbed at us. I leapt into the air to give a punch towards the Brave.
The Brave blocked my attack with his sword a split second before my fist hit his head.
That kind of abnormal action is definitely not what ordinary humans can do.
Stabbing the sword out will have a certain inertia, but the Brave can directly retract the sword to block my fatal blow. If I hit his head, he will certainly be shattered.
The fist made a loud sound, accompanied by blue particles of light booming.
Even if such a close range magic explosion cannot kill the Brave, it will certainly cause him some damage. But to my surprise, the sword in the Brave' hand reacted to the explosion happened at the moment and quickly deployed a shield to protect the Brave.
The Brave backed up hard and jumped away from us, and all the humans began to show their heads.
We were surrounded by a group of humans.
The first time I felt so nervous.
They didn't talk much nonsense as much as the villains in anime or TV shows did, instead, they rushed towards us like killers without saying a word and surrounded around us tightly.
A golden semicircle of light appeared from the encirclement and then covered us directly. Was it to prevent me from escaping from the sky with my master?
Kill them all and then we are saved, right? The Brave alone can not maintain the light shield.
So I was ready to fight.
Seeing the fastest runner rushing to me, I stepped forward and reached out my palm, and then purple crystal magic sword condensed in my hand.
This human dodged my attack directly, and his target is ... master, as if to try best to take away the master's life. His only focused on the master so his weaknesses all exposed in front of me.
I felt not good, but the master seemed to have been prepared to dodge the human attack. But with a loud sound of "boom!", the gap between my master and I less than two meters exploded.
