At the same time, Natsuya was not in a good situation either.
"Fire!"
Looking at the shadowy monsters following closely behind her, Natsuya shouted. She gripped her staff tightly and swung it behind her. A line of mysterious words appeared on the ruby on top of her staff. Then, a magic circle appeared, and several magic missiles flew out from the magic circle towards the enemies behind her.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The magic missiles hit their targets, but they did not seem to cause any damage. They only slowed down the monsters a little. Natsuya took the opportunity to run to the other side.
What should I do? What should I do?
"Yunojun? Do you have any good ideas? "
"I don't know what they are!"
The ferret on Natsuya's shoulder shook its head in response to her question.
"I suspect that they're monsters native to this world. They're probably attracted by the magic of the Jewel Seed! We should find a place to eliminate these monsters! "
"I've tried, but it didn't work!"
Natsuya shook her head when she heard Yunojun's suggestion. Since she did not need to protect others like Xiao Ying, Natsuya had already tried to fight back when she was ambushed. However, she discovered that these strange shadowy monsters were very strong. Currently, Natsuya had no way of dealing with so many shadowy monsters.
She originally wanted to escape from these shadowy monsters, but to her surprise, they chased after her relentlessly ….
This time, Naiye was completely at a loss. Although she was talented and brave, she was only a third grader in elementary school, a little girl at that!
"Me, me too …."
The ferret had no idea either. It was only … a little stronger than Natsuya!
From a certain point of view, the ferret was not even as strong as the Osaka Guardian Beast that Xiao Ying had been sleeping with for decades!
Natsuya started to panic when she did not receive any help from the ferret. She had already left the bustling city and arrived at a mountain not far away. As far as the eye could see, the entire mountain was covered in darkness. The dark clouds blocked the moonlight, so Natsuya could barely see anything.
"Caw caw caw!!"
An ear-piercing, crow-like screech sounded behind Natsuya again. Natsuya turned around and saw a few red dots rapidly approaching her.
What should I do? What should I do?
At this moment, Natsuya panicked. She tried to retreat, but her body suddenly sank. Then, she felt the magic that was protecting her slowly dissipating, and she began to fall like a deflated balloon!
"Your mana is about to run out, Naiye, hurry up and think of something!"
"I'll think of something … What can I do …?"
Clutching her magic staff tightly, Naiye didn't know what to do. However, it was too late. The shadowy monsters had already arrived in front of Naiya, and they raised their claws and clawed at the girl in front of them. Facing this irresistible attack, Natsuya could only scream and instinctively raise the Rising Sun's Heart in front of her, waiting in despair for the final moment to arrive.
But at this moment, a strong and powerful hand suddenly reached out from behind Naiye and pulled her back. At the same time, a pitch-black, flaming greatsword swung down abruptly. Along with a loud boom, the flames instantly blossomed like fireworks and engulfed the shadowy creatures.
"Gaaahhh —!!"
The bright red flames were obviously a threat to the shadowy creatures. The moment they came into contact with the flames, they immediately burst into flames. Then, they let out miserable screams and disappeared into the night sky.
"This, this is …"
Naiye stared dumbfoundedly at the gradually disappearing flames in front of her. For a moment, she didn't know what to say. She subconsciously turned around and looked behind her. Then, she saw a familiar face that she didn't expect to see at a time like this.
"Tea-teacher?!"
Naiye stared dumbfoundedly at Fangzheng who was standing behind her. Her mouth was agape, but no words came out. At that moment, Naiye felt like her mind was completely blank, or maybe she was hallucinating … Why was their form teacher here?
"Coming out to play so late at night isn't something a good student should do."
Facing Naiye, Fangzheng's expression did not change at all. He was as calm as if the two of them were not in the sky, but on the street.
Naiye even lowered her head, as if she was caught by a teacher at the entrance of an internet café.
No, wait, this isn't right!
"Teacher, what's wrong …"
"Now's not the time to talk about this."
Before Naiye could ask, Fangzheng interrupted her. He looked at the night sky again. He could vaguely sense that something was flying towards them.
"Let's meet up with the others first."
Although Naiye didn't know who the "others" Fangzheng was referring to, she had no other choice. In fact, the little girl was still in a daze. She could only let Fangzheng take her away from the sky and land on an empty ground not far away.
This was the lookout tower of the forest park on the mountain. The scenery here was usually very beautiful, but now, as Naiye stood there and looked at the city shrouded in darkness, she felt uneasy. For some reason, she had a feeling that something evil and dangerous was slowly seeping into the city …
"Big brother, we're here!"
Along with a shout, Fangzheng saw Blackie leaping down from the sky. At the same time, Illya, Xiao Ying, and Zhi Shi landed beside Fangzheng. When Xiao Ying and Zhi Shi saw Nanoye, they were stunned. But before they could ask anything, a series of low growls sounded again.
"These guys are really persistent!"
Blackie cursed under his breath when he heard the growls. He took out his pitch-black bow again.
"Big brother, let's give these guys a good beating!"
"Looks like we have no choice."
Fangzheng nodded in response to Blackie's suggestion. He raised the pitch-black greatsword in his hand.
"Seal — Hmm?"
However, to Fangzheng's surprise, just as he was about to unleash Seal Jue, the strange pitch-black monsters seemed to have sensed something and quickly stopped. It wasn't just the monsters tailing Xiao Ying, Ilya, and the rest. Even the magical beasts that were chasing after Naiya stopped in their tracks. Then, as though they had a tacit understanding, they swiftly retreated and vanished into thin air.
It was as if they had never appeared in the first place.
What's going on?
"They ran away?"
Blackie jumped up when he sensed that the enemies had disappeared. He did not hide his disappointment at all.
"I thought I could fight them here!"
"Alright, since the enemies have left, let's call it a day."
Fangzheng shook his head and put away his huge sword with a flick of his hand. However, when he lifted his head to look at Naga and Sakura, the two little girls couldn't help but take a step forward and look at him in surprise. Then, both of them asked, "What is it?"
"Big brother Fangzheng …"
"Sensei …"
The two of them spoke at the same time. They were stunned for a moment and looked at each other. Seeing this, Fangzheng shook his head.
"Alright, I know you have a lot of questions in your mind, but now is not the time to talk about these things. I think …"
As he spoke, Fangzheng looked at the time.
"It's time for you to go to bed."
Hearing this, Sakura, Zhi Shi, and Nanba's expressions instantly changed.
