Chapter 97- Helping

Sam and the girl's finale were now traveling deeper in the forest. Compared to yesterday, they went deeper into the forest because some time ago they faced an early D-grade monster and some peak E-grade monsters. It means they were near the core area.

Sam signals them to stop. Not far away from them, they saw Elena and Tony with their teammates fighting with 27 Lapris. But compared to the previous laprises Sam and the girls fought, these groups of lapris were different. There are 2 early D-grade lapris leading the team. These two were the king and queen of this group of lapris.

The male Lepris was dark red ‌and had a fire symbol on his head. The female Lepris was Green and had a wind symbol in her head. Sam previously read about this, when a Lepris Breakthrough and becomes D-grade monsters, they become proficient in one element. But, normally they become proficient in wind element but sometimes some lapris becomes proficient in other elements. So, the king was proficient in the fire element and the queen was proficient in the wind element.

"Sigh, trouble," Sam sighed and said.

He saw that the condition of Elena and Tony wasn't that good. They have potent power, but in front of lepris's speed, they cannot do anything. Their teammates also were getting beaten by the other Lepris. Because of the king and queen, Elena and Tony weren't able to help their teammates.

"Sam, we need to help them," Jeni quickly said to him.

Sam nodded and agreed with her. He also wants to help them. Not because they were from a powerful family; he wants to help. No, he wants to help them because he has a good impression on both Elena and Tony. He knows about Elena. She was a big fan of her sister, also she belonged to a family of A-grade warriors.

Sam also has a good impression of Tony. Even after reaching the early D-grade, he didn't show any arrogant behavior to him.

"Yes, we need to help them. But we need a solid plan. If we just attack those monsters with no plan, then. It can make the matter more dangerous," he said to them. They also agreed with him.

"Then what should we do? Their teammates won't last long," Kenny said to him.

"Kenny, you attack them with a confused ray. Jeni will use this chance to reach the place where Elena and Tony are fighting. I know you cast even when you are running. So, while you approach them, use this chance to cast a powerful attack and try to kill the queen first. Kenny and Tina, we three will attack those other monsters. If we can finish them quickly, then we can help the others. I know it will be difficult for you two and me to fight those agility-based monsters, but we still need to do our best. Oh… I suddenly remember Kenny and Tina. You two still have the invisibility cloak?" Sam was explaining to them his plan when he suddenly remembered about the cloak.

The invisible cloak was a product of the artifact association. It can hide your sura and make you properly invisible. But the downfall was that you can only use this cloak for a limited time. After that, it becomes a normal cloak.

"Good, Kenny and Tina then use that cloak to silently reach the towers of the warriors. Making minimum movement, try to kill those monsters. You two still need to try. I know it was hard. I will attack them with my arrows," Sam explained to them. He had a technique that would be helpful in this situation. As you can guess, he was planning to use the invisible arrows' skill to hunt those monsters. With this technique, those wouldn't even know how they died.

"Ok, also Jeni, don't make a powerful attack that will make you use most of your spiritual energy. I don't think we will ‌kill those monsters with just one hit," he said to Jeni. She nodded after hearing him. Previously, she was thinking about casting her most powerful thunder attack thunder dragon. It cost her all the spiritual energy she has but after listening to Sam, she wasn't planning to use it. She will now cast white lighting. Which will not cost her many spiritual energies.

"Ok, guys. Let's go," Sam said quickly while they approached towers of warriors who were fighting with those peak E-grade or intermediate grade monsters. He instantly vanished from his place and appeared in a branch of a large tree. He will use his bow to shoot from here.

The girls immediately bring out those invisible cloaks, and Kenny instantly hit those monsters with a confusing ray. It will make those warriors stop their fight for 1 or 2 minutes. But it will be sufficient time to reach those warriors and kill many monsters.

Kenny instantly attacks those monsters with a confusing ray. Suddenly a light appeared on the hunting ground, which shocked those warriors. Also, because of this intense lighting, those monsters also stop fighting. Elena and Tony looked at the monsters and saw those monsters behaving weirdly. Their eyes were in a daze. If you are thinking why those warriors weren't affected by the light, that is because Kenny only targeted those monsters. The warriors only saw a light ball floating in the air.

Tony and Elena looked at each other and nodded. They need to use this chance to fight with the king and queen. The fast they can kill the king and queen, the faster they will be able to help their teammates.

At this moment, Jeni quickly went towards Elena and Tony at her fastest speed. She also starts casting her spell. The moment she reached there and finished casting her spell, she attacked the queen.

The queen released a painful cry after getting hit by the white lightning. It made her body paralyzed for some time and she was bleeding from her mouth. This white lighting was very dangerous, because of this Jeni doesn't use the spell that much.

The lepris queen's painful cry made Elena and Tony surprised. They only see a white light hit the queen and the monsters suddenly ‌let out a painful cry.

"How are you two?" Jeni stood beside them and asked.

"J-Jeni!!" both of them said at the same time.

" Why are you here?" Elena asked.

"Stupid, obviously to you guys," Jeni said to her.

"Jeni, ‌help our teammates. They are in a tough situation," Tony said to her. He was anxious about his teammates.

" Don't worry, we will save them. My teammates will help them. Now only focus on these two," she said to them. Elena and Tony nodded and agreed. Now, Jeni's teammates would help their teammates so they can relax and focus on their fight.

Elena and Jeni, wasting no time, attacked the queen. The king was still in a dazed state. He only heard the painful cry of the queen, but wasn't able to do anything. Elena was a sword fighter. She attacks the queen with her special move, 'FIRE SLASH' and Jeni attacks the queen with her white thunderbolt. As you know, the defense of these lepris was low. With the combined attack of the girls, the queen finally died.

The lepris king was furious after hearing the painful cry of the queen, but he couldn't see anything and he guessed he was in danger, so he escaped from there. Tony was going to attack the king when the monsters suddenly escaped from there using his agility.

Because he could see nothing, he didn't know which direction he was going. He didn't enter the forest, but he escaped in Sam's direction.

In the association,

Mira finally reached the association and now she was busy recovering the students from the mind control. She was disconnecting the control which was controlling the students. With this, all the students' lives won't be in danger. Finally, all the warriors from the association sigh in relief.

Now it's only a matter of time until they can save all the students who were in mind control. Now it was time to take action. But first, Mira will interrogate the dark association warrior. Even the warrior said nothing. Mira can just search in his brain.

[A/N: Scary power of the mind.]

"How many students are still there who are under the control of the dark association?" Vena asked Markus.

" There are still 100 students who are in control of the dark association. We needed to save them," Markus said with a sad tone. It was a complete failure of the association that those dark Association warriors could harm these students.

Victor, Hina, and Gloria were in the association. Alena was also standing beside them. They finally heard the warrior from the dark association finally get captured. Still, one warrior escapes, but with the help of Saint Mira, they can finally relax.
