chapter 1050: peace was never an option [part 3]
professor rinehart made a slashing motion with his wand, creating an elemental shield that blocked the lightning obelith had shot in his direction.
as the lightning dispersed, the gargoyle closed the distance, his claws stretched out and ready to strike.
the headmaster of brynhildr academy smiled faintly as he moved his wand like the musical conductor of an orchestra.
a whip-like brilliance shot out from the tip of his wand, lashing at the gargoyle emperor like a deadly whip of destruction.
the gargoyles who were unlucky enough to be in its path were shattered to oblivion, and obelith knew that he must evade it.
however, to his surprise, as he started to dodge the incoming magical whip, the whip suddenly moved in an uncanny way, as if bouncing off an invisible wall, that made it head to obelith's direction.
his eyes widened, seeing that the whip was now hurtling toward him.
crossing his arms over his chest, the gargoyle emperor decided to block the whip strike. but, the moment the whip connected with his arms, he felt as if he had been smashed by a giant sledgehammer that sent him crashing towards the ground.
but at the last moment, obelith managed to regain his balance and break his fall.
however, as his feet landed on the ground, a ten-meter-wide crater formed under his feet.
it was then that the gargoyle emperor realized that the old man wasn't a simple wizard and that the latter truly had the power to make things difficult for him.
professor rinehart didn't follow up his attack and even made a come-over-here gesture to obelith, making the latter's face distort in anger.
"you dare to look down on me, mortal?!" obelith roared in anger as he flew upwards.
this time, he unleashed a barrage of fireballs at the old man, who was looking at him in disdain.
professor rinehart didn't bother to dodge or evade because his resonance appeared in front of him and blocked the barrage of attacks that was coming from the enraged gargoyle emperor.
ethan, who was watching this battle, finally sighed in relief because he knew that his headmaster had everything under control.
"everyone, focus on the small fries!" ethan ordered. "kill!"
"let's go, girls!"
"hahaha! show them the power of fairies!"
"wow... so big and so hard."
"girl, how many times do i need to tell you to not say things that might make others misunderstand you?!"
what james didn't know was that his two granddaughters, who go by the names maple and cinnamon, were paying close attention to ethan.
the two of them exchanged knowing smiles with each other and giggled at the same time.
of course, james thought that his granddaughters only found this battle funny, so he didn't think too much about their giggling.
while these four observed the battle from a distance, ethan noticed several teleportation gates with a red portal at their center.
gargoyles were coming out of these portals and joining the battle, which would put their allied forces at a great disadvantage.
he didn't know where these gargoyles were coming from, but he decided to destroy these portals to prevent their enemies from getting reinforcements.
"can you manage, lady xanda?" ethan asked.
"don't worry about me," lady xanda replied as she continued to swing her bone club, shattering all who stood in her way. "do what you have to do!"
ethan nodded and flew toward the red portal, intending to destroy it.
"areadbhair!" ethan summoned the flaming spear that circled around his body, turning him into a blazing comet that smashed against the gargoyles, who tried to block his way.
obelith, who noticed where ethan was going, immediately went to intercept him. however, before he could do that, professor rinehart barred his path and unleashed a barrage
of spells that pushed the gargoyle emperor back.
"stop him!" obelith, who had no choice but to rely on his subordinates, shouted in anger.
following his orders, countless gargoyles went to intercept ethan, but the young man broke
through their defenses, destroying them instantly.
something similar to a comet covered in light, flew alongside ethan.
"i'll help you!" cedric said.
"you take the portals on the right, i'll take the left!" ethan stated.
"okay!" cedric nodded.
two comets, one covered in flames and the other covered in a bright light, parted ways with
each other and headed to their respective targets.
the gargoyles who were about to attack the giantess shifted their attention to the two young men, who were planning to destroy the portals where their reinforcements were coming from. this gave the alliance some breathing space because nearly a third of the gargoyle army hurriedly pulled out from the fight in order to reinforce their teleportation gates.
