Chapter 63 Combining spells
The Red Brigade Clan had no trouble breaking through the front gate. With a swipe of their swords, the wooden panel on the other side was sliced, and immediately, the group went to enter. They weren't here on official business, so there was no need for them to alert the others of their presence.
This Red Brigade group, in particular, was a group of fifteen, all of them adults, meaning that they had already experienced life in the Pagna Academy. Still, most of them had stayed at being Stage 1 Pagna warriors, but were at the top end.
While the leaders in charge of the attack were Stage 2 Pagna warriors. Entering the courtyard, they immediately started to rush forward and were heading straight for the main temple.
"Huh, what are you doing here?" One of the kids pointed with their hand, and without slowing down, with a swipe of the sword, the hand was sliced right off.
"ARGHHH!" The kid screamed at the top of its lungs, looking at its hand. The child was just curious as it stared at the clan members coming towards them. The members that they had seen multiple times visit them before. So they just thought it was no different.
"All the children here are no names at the temple!" The clan member shouted. "No one must know what we did here today, so there is no harm in getting rid of them!"
Lifting the sword, the clan member was ready to thrust it right through the child until a foot came out and hit the man right in the head. He was sent flying back, crashing into the temple wall, with a large foot indent in his skull, killing him on the spot.
"Why are you trying to harm the children!" Kron had burst out of his office room the moment he heard the cries, and seeing blood, his heart was racing at what was in front of him.
"Why are members of the Red Brigade Clan attacking this temple? Don't you know who I am?" Kron stated.
The members had started to draw their weapons and formed a formation around Kron, circling him.
"It's because of who you are, we are doing this!" The Clan member shouted.
With everything happening, the children couldn't help but slide their doors open to see what was going on, and to see weapons drawn at their teacher, they had no clue how to react.
"All of you get out of here, run through the forest, head to the town where people can see you!" Kron shouted.
Immediately one of the children closest to the door had attempted to do just that, but as they did, a Clan member stood in their path, ready to swing their sword.
Seeing this, Kron stomped his foot down, and a crack went across the floorboards with power, exploding right where the clan member was, causing his feet to fall, and his sword to miss.
Safa had opened the door as well, and immediately turned her head. To look at Simyon. His eyelids were incredibly heavy, with him constantly mumbling under his breath. He was in no state to leave this place.
Looking outside, she didn't know why this had to happen now of all times, because there was only one more hour to go. One more hour until the seal was undone, but what were they going to do now?

Inside the Red Brigade Clan, the elders along with the other members were looking at Targress who was on the ground, his clothes had been burnt away revealing his skin, he had been blown away in a single strike.
"Was that a type of palm strike?" One of the elders thought.
"He must have a large amount of Qi to do something like this, doesn't this confirm it, he really is someone who's been sent from the Demonic faction, we must eliminate him!"
Based on his own powers, Raze knew that Elder Targress was still alive. He hadn't gained any mana from using his spell. All of the elders were higher-stage Pagna warriors than the rest, so it was somewhat to be expected.
Taking this opportunity while they were distracted, Elder Yon lifted both of his hands filled with Qi, and broke right through the two swords. He then grabbed onto the heads of the two clan members by his side and threw them into the wall.
The exit was blocked, so the only way to clear himself from being surrounded was to jump up high in the air and head towards Raze and the others. It looked like he was almost floating before he landed by their side, and he wasn't the only one that was there; Sonny had decided to join the group, drawing his sword as well.
"I'm sorry, Raze, I had no idea something like this was going to happen," Sonny said. "This was not the type of Clan I joined, I don't know why they are doing this."
Now wasn't the time to talk about it, though, as the enemy was coming towards them. The clan members rushed forward, and Charlotte was the first to make a move.
Her eyes glowing, she moved her palm in a circular motion.
"Wind Twister!" Charlotte called out, and from the palm of her hand, nearly the entire group had been pushed back, with some of them even being lifted up in the air.
However, the elders were able to withstand the wind and continued to charge forward, while the men that had fallen from the initial attack had gotten back up.
Lifting his hands up, Raze used his own magic.
"Dark Pulse!" a beam shot out from his hand, but the elder was able to jump to the side, avoiding the attack. A straight telegraphed attack like so could easily be avoided by them, and his chained hands weren't making things easier.
"Do you have the fire attribute?" Raze asked Charlotte.
"I do, but it's my weakest attribute. I can't produce a spell on the same scale as before; the most I can do is an ember!"
Ember was a 1-star fire magic spell, which would be useless against these. Based on what Raze saw, her light magic and wind magic would be at the 3-star level.
"That's fine, use the skill Gust first, and then Ember; it will have the same effect!" Raze shouted out. From the look on Charlotte's face, she wasn't so sure. Why was a 2-star mage giving her advice in the first place? Nonetheless, in the desperate situation, she decided to give it a go. In her right hand, the tier 2 wind spell, Gust.
A strong wind was summoned, and had hit the Elder at the front, doing next to nothing. Then with Ember, a small orange flame had been produced. When the two touched, it had produced a strong flame, like that of a flamethrower, that went directly into the face of the elder, burning his body to a crisp until he eventually fell on the floor and collapsed. One of the Elders had been killed.
'It worked... it really worked!' Charlotte thought. Combining spells like so, she had tried in the past, but she had tried using Wind Twister instead. The power of her wind attribute would be too much and overpower the flames, burning them out.
'How could a 2-star mage, and one so young, know stuff like this?'
Seeing the dead elder on the ground, Raze smiled. He may not yet have his skills back, but all of the knowledge he had from being a 9-star mage could still help him even now.
