The newly appearing monster went berserk, with a single swing of its axe, it killed several black-robed people who were standing on the side of the magic circle, and, but not a single black-robed person ran away from there and continued to cast his magic spells. Ariana used her analyze to see the status of the monster that appeared,
\=================
Monsters: Minotaur
Level: 440, Rank: A+
\=================
“We can fight his Ayumu..” Ariana.
“Ayo Rui, you get into the bag only...” Reply Xenon while taking out his backpack from the item box.
“Iya, I understand...”.
Xenon immediately put on his backpack and crouched down in front of Ariana who let go of both legs, after Ariana entered into his backpack, which was not his back,
“Come....Rui.” Xenon.
“Iya....Ayumu..” Ariana's Reply.
Xenon leapt out and when treading the ground, he immediately lunged towards the minotaur while unsheathing his spear, while Ariana who was on his back aimed at the minotaur who raised her axe and was ready to swing her. Xenon jumped past the person standing, he thrust his spear into the head of the minotaur which raised its axe to fend off Xenon's puncture attack. But Xenon turned around and Ariana who was behind him immediately released her arrow then hit the neck and chest of the minotaur. Xenon who had been spinning grabbed his spear and cut off the head of the minotaur until it fell. After that the two landed in the middle of the magic circle that was no longer lit because the minotaur that came out from inside her was already dead. The black-robed people immediately fell down with frightened faces looking at Xenon and Ariana standing in front of them.
“Retreat..reverse...we failed...” Shouted a black-robed man.
The surviving black-robed people ran and scattered into the forest leaving Xenon and Ariana in the middle, but it turns out there is still a black-robed man who was hit by a minotaur and is still alive even though his legs are no longer there. Xenon and Ariana approached him. With his heal magic, Ariana healed the man's legs even though his condition remained severed, after the person returned to calm and was not in pain,
“Hei...who are you ? why did you guys call the big monster earlier?” Ask Xenon.
“Ugh...”.
The man hesitantly answered Xenon's question, turning to look at his dead friend next to him.
“Oi reply...” Admonish Xenon once again.
“I...we...monster summoning troops under the command of the first prince.” Reply to the man.
“Hah...want what kind of troops come to the academy forest like this and what is your goal ?” Ask Xenon.
“We're at prince's order to kill....”.
Not finished the man spoke, his head was pierced by arrows and immediately died, Xenon and Ariana immediately stood up while on standby, they looked around looking for who shot the arrow.
“He was killed so as not to divulge the plan.but he has already given us a hint.” Xenon.
“Hmm they want to kill princess Valia because she told the first prince ?” Ask Ariana.
“My guess is so...we have to report this to the academy...” Answer Xenon.
“Let's go home...” Take Ariana.
To be quick, Ariana went back into the backpack. Xenon took the minotaur head and put it in the item box, then he galloped into the forest to return to the academy.
*****
Xenon and Ariana headed straight for the main building of the academy and headed to the main head office of the academy. After arriving and opening the door, they saw Marlon, Rafalna and 2 other academy heads were gathered, when they saw Xenon and Ariana enter, Marlon immediately stood up and approached the two, Marlon immediately stood up,
“There's something we want to talk about, but it looks like ossan is busy huh..” Answer Xenon.
“True, there is shocking news coming from the capital, your king died last night..the cause is not yet known Marlon.
Xenon and Ariana immediately looked at each other, then they asked,
“Princess Valia is in the academy right ? she already knows not yet ?” Ask Ariana.
“Eh...princess has just come out of the room and wants to travel to the capital tonight....why ?” Answer Marlon.
“Aduh..please prevent him ossan. I have something to say to Ossan and Rafalna sensei now..”.
Marlon directly walked up to the head of the magic academy and the knights who were sitting on the sofa and looked towards the door.
“Trendoll san, Halley san.please prevent princess Valia from coming out of the academy or out of town, please call her here along with her bodyguard Lynx. Looks like they brought important news.” Marlon.
“Good Marlon san..” Said the head of the Trendoll magic academy who immediately stood up.
“I'll tell Lynx kun..” Said the head of Halley knight academy.
The two immediately ran out of Marlon's room, then after allowing Xenon and Ariana to sit down, Xenon took out the minotaur head from his item box. Marlon and Rafalna are surprised to see him, Xenon and Ariana tell the events in the forest that is behind the academy to the two, from the gathering of monster monsters to the side next to the river, which is the, until they saw the monster summoning ritual.
“Monster summoning team ? indeed in our kingdom there are yes such troops ?” Marlon asked Rafalna.
“Nothing, we have no army of monster summoners, only one kingdom has such an army, the kingdom built by the God of Greed, the magic kingdom of Magna.” Reply Rafalna.
“Hmm..but they said that they were commanded by the first prince and according to our guesses, they wanted to kill Valia's daughter, now with the news of the king's death, we believe they are targeting Valia's daughter.” Xenon.
“That's if in our opinion, because the survivor was killed before he told his whole plan.” Ariana added.
“So yes, Rafalna, please ask people to check the conditions inside the forest.” Marlon.
“Good, I'll go for a minute..” Rafalna walked out of the room.
Marlon was seen thinking hard, he was observing the minotaur head in front of his desk,
“They summoned this monster in the forest, this could cause a monster attack to the academy because the gathered monster must have sensed a huge magic energy within the forest. Seems right, they're after Valia's daughter and intend to silence everything.” Marlon.
“I mean ossan ?” Ask Xenon.
“Those monster monsters have their own habitat, if something bothers them, they will definitely fight it, but if something exceeds their strength, like a huge magic energy, it will be, much stronger monsters and the birth of new species monsters, they will automatically go looking for a new safe place according to them. If they knew there was a human city near them, surely what they would attack would be that human city, its purpose to take its place. Try to imagine if until such monsters attack the academy from behind then enter the city, everything will be destroyed.” Answer Marlon.
“But can we fight them?” Ask Ariana.
“We will definitely be outnumbered, indeed most of the monsters are only rank C, D and E, but if their number exceeds the students of the academy and the city guards....defenseless inhabitants will fall prey to them.” Answer Marlon.
“Oh is right too...” Xenon Reply.
Suddenly the door was opened, the head of the Trendoll magic academy and the head of the Halley knight academy came along with Valia and Lynx.
“Xenon....Ariana chan..” Valia.
“How are Valia the same..” Reply Xenon and Ariana who turned to look at the door.
