Chapter 54: Injured
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At this moment, Fiona was all covered in blood, and there was a visible bloody, penetrating wound on her shoulder. Her face was extremely pale; it looked as if she would die any moment.
“Miss Fiona, are you alright?” Jack asked anxiously.
Fiona forced her eyes open and recognized Jack immediately the moment she saw him. She opened her mouth and said with difficulty, “Save…”
With just one word, she lost consciousness again. Jack called out twice, but the other party did not respond at all. Jack immediately carried her up and ran all the way back to the family clan’s pharmacy. There, he shouted, “Help! Help!”
Immediately, someone came and started to check on Fiona’s injuries. At this moment, a few servants also came over. Jack immediately instructed them to call the head of the family over. After all, Fiona was from the Sky Blue Magic Academy, and she was injured and on the verge of death. This was a big matter, and he had to report it to the head of the family immediately.
Norton quickly rushed over upon hearing the news. Several core members of the family clan had also come over.
“What happened?” Norton asked with a frown when he saw Fiona, who had lost consciousness and was all covered in blood.
Everyone looked toward Jack, who said immediately, “I don’t know either. I ran into her on the street outside the door. She had passed out on her horse, and I was the one who stopped the horse. I saw that she was seriously injured, so I brought her back. But before she lost consciousness, she had said a word, but I couldn’t hear it clearly. It sounded like the word ‘save’.”
After hearing Jack’s words, everyone became anxious. At this moment, a figure suddenly passed everyone and came to Fiona’s side. Then, he injected a trace of magical power into her body. This person was Ron. When he saw Fiona covered in blood, he was already very worried. After hearing Jack’s words, he became even more worried, so he immediately injected magical power into her. Immediately, Fiona regained consciousness.
“Miss Fiona, what has happened? Where is Serena? Is she alright?” Ron asked anxiously. He was most worried about Serena.
When Fiona saw it was Ron, she immediately said anxiously, “Junior Serena is in the woods ten kilometers west of the city. We were being pursued, and they risked their lives to let me escape first. Go and save her quickly.”
Before Fiona could finish, Ron was only unable to wait. He had heard that Serena was in danger, and there was no way he could sit still. He stood up and was about to go out and save her, but as he was about to do so, Norton, the head of the family, stopped him.
“Grandpa?” Ron looked at Norton, confused.
Norton said, “Don’t be anxious. Let’s ask about the situation first.” Then, Norton said to Fiona, “Miss Fiona, please tell us the exact situation. How many people are there on the other side? How strong are they?”
Fiona immediately said, “The other party has five people. The strongest is a level-6 Great Mage, followed by two who are level-5 and two who are level-4. They are all very strong and especially adept at assassination. They are very powerful. Senior and Junior had risked their lives to stop them, so I could break out and escape. Even so, I was still seriously injured by them.”
Norton was relieved to hear that the strongest person on the other side was only a level-6 Great Mage. This was because Ron’s current strength was already that of a level-8 Great Mage, enough to crush the other party.
Norton immediately said to Ron, “Go quickly, we’ll be right behind you.”
Ron did not waste any more time talking and went out directly. When he reached the door, a faint dragon roar was heard, and then the transparent phantom of a blue dragon’s soul could be seen rising from Ron’s room and flying directly over. In the center of the dragon soul was a wand emitting an icy aura; it was the Ice Wand.
Then, Ron jumped directly onto the phantom of the dragon soul and rode away on it. Originally, the phantom of the dragon soul was only an afterimage without a physical body, but it could not withstand Romo’s profound strength. He had taught Ron a method, which was to use the ability of the Ice Wand to condense a layer of ice on the phantom of the dragon soul. This way, it was equivalent to the phantom of the dragon soul having a physical body, and he could stand on the phantom of the dragon soul and fly with the energy of the Ice Wand.
Seeing a huge phantom of a dragon soul leaving quickly with Ron, Karuman, who was further down, was filled with envy. “They are indeed the family clan of the Master. They actually have a gold-tier magical weapon, and the phantom of the dragon soul seems to be incomplete. If it were an intact dragon soul, it would be a magical creature on-par at least with a Divine Mage. Could this magical weapon have been made by the Master? If this is true, then the Master is definitely an expert who has surpassed the realm of the Great Archmage.”
With this thought, he became even more careful. Looking at the phantom of the dragon soul in the distance, he decided that it was better to follow and secretly protect Ron. Although he had already heard what Fiona had said just now that the strongest person on the other side was only a level-6 Great Mage, it was always wise to play safe. If this genius young master, Ron, was harmed by the other party because of his inexperience in combat, he would not be able to answer to his master. And, if his master were to blame it on him, he would not be able to bear the consequences. He might even be buried with him.
Hence, in a flash, his silhouette vanished. However, everyone in the family was very nervous, so no one cared that an old man guarding the door had suddenly disappeared.
Romo had been very worried for Ron and had wanted to instruct Karuman to follow and protect him in secret. Then, he saw Karuman had gone on his own. Romo was very pleased with Karuman’s response, but he was still a little worried. After all, this was Ron’s first real battle with someone, and it was a life and death battle, so he had to pay more attention.
Therefore, Romo immediately bought a Visitation Talisman and placed the object of the visit on Ron. Romo wanted to see how Ron was doing and also to protect him.
Ten kilometers west of Winterfrost, there was a dense forest. At this moment, the sounds of flames exploding and other magical attacks could be heard coming from the dense forest. Then, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, three figures ran out from the dense forest. These three figures were two men and a woman. They were all dressed in the uniform of the Sky Blue Magic Academy. They were Howen, Klein, and Serena. At this moment, the three of them were all injured, especially Howen, who was in the center. He had a deep wound on his chest, the bone could be seen, and it was bleeding profusely. Klein had an arm that was hanging limply. It was obvious that his arm had been injured. Serena, who was on the other side, had several wounds.. She looked very disheveled.
