MMORPG: Rebirth of the Shadow Mage

22 Fighting a Wyvern

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ

A huge Wyvern was destroying everything around the cave. Its breath spread ice everywhere. The previously beautiful forest turned into a cold tundra.

The cave entrance had numerous scratch marks, as if the beast had tried to claw its way in. Fortunately, or not its large body was too big to fit into the narrow cave.

Roar...

Somewhere farther from the cave, a loud roar could be heard. The roar indicated that the beast was irritated.

A group of armored NPCs were continuously attacking the monster incessantly. The group consisted of a few swordsmen and two mages.

The armor they wore had the symbol of a snake engraved on the chest. If Leo had seen the armor, he would have recognized the group immediately.

The ' Serpents ' a group of NPC mercenaries who traveled the continents fulfilling various requests for money.

In Leo's former life, they were considered the strongest mercenaries because all group members had a special passive skill.

It was widely believed that even if the strongest players banded together to fight the group, it would still be a close fight.

The same group now attacked a beast that was blocking the way into the cave.

The swordsmen distracted the wyvern while the mages did the main damage. The beast, which was constantly being attacked, was furious and kept on roaring as it tried to bite one of the incoming swordsmen.

Unfortunately for the Beast, the sword users had agility that exceeded the speed of sound. The only thing the Beast could do was look at sonic booms that kept on appearing in front of its face.

Furious the Wyvern took a deep breath and emitted an ice breath aimed at the back of the group's backline - the mages.

Whoosh...

The ice breath froze everything in its path and successfully hit the mages. A grimace that resembled a smirk appeared on the Wyvern's face.

A huge cloud of snow particles was thrown into the air, obstructing the monster's vision. The Wyvern wasn't bothered, because he was sure that the ice breath had achieved its goal.

Whoosh...

A sharp sword descended on the beast's wing greatly injuring it.

- 542 Physical Damage!

Grrr.....

The monster growled in pain as it moved its body and threw its tail at the swordsman. For the beast, the fight was as good as over. Without the mages, a group of 3 swordsmen would quickly tire out and fall prey to Wyvern's teeth.

The injured wing was painful, but not as painful as its injured pride.

'How dare an insect touch my wing! '

he spat out and gritted his sharp teeth. The wyvern managed to transfer his words to the minds of three swordsmen.

And yet another Ice Wyvern spell was revealed.

The three attackers paused briefly when they heard the words of a Wyvern, whereupon the beast let out a growl that resembled laughter.

' Didn't expect a reptile to speak?'

Its mouth was wide open, ready to emit another ice breath.

Whoosh...

The cyan color beam shot out of the beast's mouth and engulfed one of the swordsmen.

Shing...

Luckily, at the last second, a golden wall appeared in front of the confused mercenary and blocked the Wyvern's attack.

" Wake Up Ron! "

A feminine voice echoed through the battlefield, waking up the dazed out swordsman, Ron from his stupor.

He clutched the hilt of the sword's and his blue eyes gravitated towards the two standing mages who should have been killed by the ice breath.

There was not a single visible wound on the bodies of his comrades, which made Ron sigh in relief.

With a smile, Ron unequipped his sword and raised his hands upward. Mana began to gather near him and a dozen white color swords appeared floating above him.

The most powerful skill known by Ron, would finally be put in use.

Stomping the ground Ron bolted straight towards the Monster's head.

Extending his arm forward he clenched his fist allowing three swords to be sent flying at the Wyvern's face.

Clank... Clank... Crrr...

The three blades were aimed at the same spot, but only one managed to penetrate the wyvern's sturdy scales.

The Last Light Sword managed to pierce into the wyvern's forehead just above the eye.

When Ron saw the result, he clicked his tongue and gestured the swords to return. His original target was the beast's eyes, but the wyvern's movements made it difficult to aim.

Ron continued to back away from the Wyvern, allowing the mages to open fire on the monster again.

Other swordsmen also took his place in the battle, allowing him to take a small break. Ron wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled as he thought about how reliable his teammates were.

He had been through hell and back while leaning on his comrades, and the trust between them was immeasurable.

As he looked around the battlefield, he noticed the two swordsmen, Josh and Luke, attempting to attack the Wyvern's wings. Before accepting the request from a noble, they made sure to do research on the Wyvern living in the mountain.
