"Hooh... you"re certainly a tough fellow and undoubtedly a worthy monster with the t.i.tle of a King." Kyros couldn"t help to praise the resilience of the Goblin King. Even after that exchange, it was still breathing.

"..." Nonetheless, the Goblin King didn"t speak as he doesn"t have enough strength to talk. Him standing there while breathing was already considered a miracle.

"Allow me to finish you off." He said while summoning a unique runic-arrow with a silver pattern at its head. "Huuh~" Kyros exhaled while he put his left hand into the thin air. Strangely, he wasn"t using a crafted bow, but instead, he created his long-bow using his mana manipulation.

Scintillating deep-purple lighting bow was formed out of nowhere. "[Arrow Bolt!]" Kyros murmured whereas a tremendous thunderclap howl furiously, seamed to crack the air as if the heavens might about to split apart.

*??????!*

The wind screeched, with an immense suction force in the heart of the disturbance gradually a maelstrom was being formed in the middle of dazzling silvery arrow-head numerous ancient runic symbols appeared as it encircled around the core.

After acc.u.mulating enough momentum. Kyros released the bolt.

The arrow bolt flew toward the defenseless Goblin King, as the earth cried in terror while the bolt darted similar to a turbulent swirling maelstrom that severing the terrain of the forest.

The Goblin King observed the imminent threat without flinching. He already drained most of his life force after releasing the attack that way over his league.

As the swirling maelstrom come near him. The Goblin King closed its eyes and waited for his departure.

*??????!*

A vast explosion erupted at the core of the collision. Kyros" eyes glittered with a golden hue whilst he observed the misty cloud that"s covering his line of sight. Eventually, the smoke dissipated.

Then there he saw the landscape of the forest changed exceedingly great. A sixty meters long crack was carved to the scorched ground while the figure of the Goblin King was nowhere to be found.

However, Kyros was sure that he killed the Goblin King on the spot with that skill.

"Mm, I guess with this my job is done," Kyros said with a self-satisfied smile.

On the southeast side of the plainlan forest.

Kiro was eventually awakened from his mana deficiency. Still, he couldn"t move his body around. Only his consciousness returns while his body doesn"t obey his command.

"—Urgh. How long did I fall asleep?" Kiro said while he scanned the surrounding, but to his surprise, he was still in the same spot after pa.s.sing out. When his mind went blank, he was already preparing for the worst. Yet, the gravest prevision did not come.

"Fixie what happened? Where are we?" Kiro asked her once more. "Master! You"re lucky your teacher has come to save you!" Fixie said with a tone that didn"t hide her joy.

"If it wasn"t because your teacher intervened, the Master may now be in a troublesome situation." Then Fixie narrated what happened after he pa.s.sed out.

After listening to her tale, Kiro was astounded to know not only Kyros came, but even Rosaleen was alongside his Master. "She"s here?" Kiro cried out in surprise while he used his observing eyes to scan the surrounding. But it was only a futile effort, as his view was only limited to 180 degrees to his left side.

Suddenly he heard a shriek beside him. "Kiro! You"re awake, right?" Alina beamed with a smile as she shook Kiro"s body recklessly.

"Ow, ow... Alina stop—stop! The pain in my body is aching throughout the place." Kiro reminded her that his body wasn"t in the best condition.

"... Sorry! Oh, that"s right! Ms. Rosie is here and she can help you." Alina said as she turned around and saw Rosaleen, who was frowning her eyebrows. "What is it, Ms. Rosie?" Alina was alarmed from her reaction as she slowly observed the forest. But before she could ask another question. A purplish thunder engulfed half of the sky as a thunderous roar reverberated to the forest.

"Tsk! That old fool, what he was thinking; why would he cast a large scale skill in this forest? Didn"t he know it would at least take a year before the natural landscape of that place to return?" Rosaleen grumbled in dissatisfaction.

"Wa—what was that commotion, Ms. Rosie?" Alina asked in fright it was her first time seeing such a tremendous mana flow that even the aftershock was reaching her place.

Seeing her reaction, Rosaleen gently explained. "No need to worry, it was just an old person who was overdoing this." She said while shifting her attention to Kiro. "Mm, I"m amazed you have already been awakened."

"... Is that you, Ms. Rosie?" Kiro said but he can"t move so he asked Alina to move his body direction to see Rosaleen figure.

When he saw her otherworldly beauty, only then Kiro believed that it was undeniably the Rosie of his dream.

"Yes, it"s me," Rosaleen said while observing Kiro"s body curiously. She cannot make head nor tail to his unnatural body recovery. "Mm, I guess if you aren"t this special that old man wouldn"t barge into my office just to brag about his newly attained disciple," Rosaleen muttered those words enough only for her to hear. However, she underestimated Kiro"s hearing capability.

"So, the old madman was the reason she was here" Kiro voiced out inside his head.

Staring at him for a few more minutes. Rosaleen said. "I suppose you only need a mana potion to recover your vitality." While saying that Rosie threw a two-piece azure crystal blue bottle at Alina.

"I"ll leave it to you, Alina, please lend Kiro a hand," Rosaleen said. Shifting back her attention to the forest.

"Mm! Thank you, Ms. Rosie." Alina beamed with a radiating smile whilst opening the small bottle for Kiro to drink. "Please don"t waste a single drop. It would be rude for Ms. Rosie"s generosity." She said while lifting his chin upward as she poured the potion gently toward Kiro"s mouth.

"Gulp, thank you, Alina." Kiro voiced his appreciation. As a sudden aquatic aura enveloped his body.

With the gentle touch of the aquatic potion soothed his chaotic mind. "Huuu~ That"s refreshing." He said in delight. He was about to get up. However, Alina interjected.

"Don"t move around. Your body isn"t stable yet, right?" She said while watching the azure light to do its work. "After 30 minutes then I"ll give you another potion so stay put!"

Seeing her caring action, Kiro suddenly remembered what he did a while ago. Then guilt overwhelmed his conscience. "... Mmm, Alina I—" However before he could even utter his apology Alina put her index finger to his mouth.

"Shush... You don"t have to worry, I understand." Alina smiled gently at him. "Alina knows Kiro is only doing that to protect me..." The last sentences of hers were only audible to her.

Nevertheless, Kiro managed to read her lips. After discerning her real thoughts, Kiro let out a soft sigh. "Still, I hurt your feelings, so let me apologize. I"m sorry, Alina." Kiro stared gently at Alina"s coruscant auburn eyes as he told his sincere apology.

Hearing his gentle voice, Alina hid her face in embarra.s.sment. "Mm." She hummed in response.

Seeing her bashful reaction, Kiro couldn"t help to tease her back. "Why are you avoiding my face? Did you perhaps fall for me?" He quipped with a sly smile hung on his face.

Staring at his smug expression, Alina suddenly has an urge to punch that silly face. Although she didn"t do it. Alina pinched Kiro"s waist fiercely.

"Ow, ow... Okay, okay. It"s my mistake, please stop." Kiro admitted his defeat. Right at this moment, his body was so sensitive that even the slightest movement would lead to pain.

After pinching his waistline for a few good more minutes. Only then Alina nodded in satisfaction.
