Chapter 164: An Exchange 3

#1

The spirit said and Jaehwang had a shocked look on his face.

-No way, how could you break the spell so fast?

-It was kind of easy.

-The spell may be gone but it’s still in my head!

-Your head?

Jaehwang’s head went blank again.

-You didn’t notice? There was a spell to block my hiding skill and then there was on to make my mind blank.

Clearly the spirit was unaware of the mind spell. Luckily she had enough energy to work on removing the other. However, the mind spell seemed to be more severe than the other one so removing that one was going to be a bit of a challenge.

Jaehwang didn’t understand what the spell was supposed to do to his conscious.

-Thanks!

-Something’s strange...

If he didn’t have the spirit with him then that would be a big problem.

Jaehwang was first going to heal his wounds and then see what’s wrong with his conscious. The spell was much stronger than he thought.

-Can you break the spell?

-Of course!

The spirit said. Red energy light covered Jaehwang’s wounds they were being healed. A little after that he was lying on the ground trying to figure out what was wrong with his conscious.

“Wheu...”

Jaehwang took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

“It’s Chajeon.”

Baekren gathered glowing energy emitted into her hands.

“Screaming Yellow dust”

The dust made a low screeching noise as she held it in her hands.

It was her favorite thing to use when she cast spells during fights. When the energy died down then the spell could be broken.

-What’s going on? Are you not going to speak first? Did you make peace with your ancestor?

-If I was going to try and do that I would have died...

-I guess you’re right.

Halcan agreed.

“Wow!”

Baekrean said in surprise as she looked at her hand.

The magic dust flew into the air along with an amulet she was wearing.

“What’s going on!?”

Shortly after that the magic dust broke the amulet. Baekren didn’t understand what was happening.

Beakren quickly gathered the remaining of the dust and the pieces of the amulet.

-This is not good. How do I undo that spell?

It would take hours to undo the spell.

Especially since she didn’t have the amulet that usually helped her with those kinds of things. It was completely broken.

After a moment the two of them were able to talk and find out what the spell was.

“What?!”

A spell like that was for a monster, not for the mind of a human? It was supposed to be a spell to just keep them away for some time.

-You didn’t know this? Ugh. No wonder the guy looked a bit strange after that. Maybe you should find him and help undo the spell.

-What? No way. He’s not on our side!

Baekren shouted.

-Let’s make a spell protection shield.

It was impossible. They gave up on trying to undo the ‘Screeching Yellow Dust’ spell. After thinking about that guy and his powerful arrows they decided that they had to make a powerful shield.

-Is that good?

-Wow, you’re done already. That should do it. When we see him again we’ll be able to block out those arrows. It seems we only have about 5 minutes until we get there...

-Wait, there’s something else I have to do first.

-Okay.

Baekren added more magic to the shield just to be safe. It was the type of spell that would need lots of strength and effort to undo but she knew exactly how to undo it. Maybe if the spell wasn’t so complicated then they wouldn’t have to help him.

Swooshhh! Panggg!

“Ahhh!”

Baekren used her shield to block away the shots.

However, the shield started to get weak after so many arrows.

“That way?!”

She then detected where the spell was.

It wasn’t an easy journey. An intolerable light shined brightly into her face. Obviously the spell was where the arrows were coming from but there was just so much light.

“Ugh...”

She looked around and realized that he build a protecting shield as well.

Swooosh! Pangg!

He continued to shoot arrows and she started to get frustrated.

“How am I supposed to do anything like this?!”

Baekren shouted. Arrows were shooting from everywhere. There was no safe direction.

The magic connected to the spell was everywhere but that didn’t help. She had to get close to undo the spell.

“Ouch!”

The attack was fatal.

She was hit by an arrow that got through her shield.

Although the arrow got through her shield it was weakened by the strong shield meaning she wasn’t nearly as injured as she would have been without the shield.

Baekren ducked lower on the floor doing the best she could to avoid the attacks.

She looked around with a vain look on her face. Apparently this was much harder than she thought it would be.

-The arrows are moving like hands and feet. What is he doing?

-Just try to block them out.

-Don’t you think I would do that if I could?

-Why does it seems the the detecting skill isn’t working?

She didn’t notice that the detect skill seemed to be gone until then. The main purpose of the spell was so he wouldn’t be able to use his hiding skill.

-I put a detecting spell on him so I could know where he was and the fight would be easier. But, I can’t detect anything right now. He must have found a way to undo the spell somehow. I can’t even hear the sound of him using the arrows.

-Seriously? That means...

He said with a pause. Baekren was thinking the same thing. He must have found a way to undo the spell and fix his conscious at least a little. But, how could he have done that on his own?

“That can’t be. I’ll try to detect something else...! I think I can hear something!”

She said as she thought she saw him.

After that she tried to use another spell but...

“Darn it, I don’t have enough energy...”

She could wait until she had enough strength but that would take a while.

“Thankfully we have the secret weapon.”

With their secret weapon they could do something similar that they were going to cast the spell. Before it was a little broken but it still worked just fine.

“Detecting Spell”

All she had to do was say the name of the spell for the weapon to get to work.

After the spell preparations were finished it was ready to go.

Now all she had to do was find him so she could aim it at him. But, even after waiting and waiting he didn’t show up.

Just a little while ago there were arrows everywhere but as soon as she got the weapon ready there gone. She then looked around trying to find him.

-Ugh!

-Hey!

-What?

-Look up!

-What? Why?

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Takk! Tak! Tak! Takk!

Suddenly dozens of arrows began to randomly fall from the sky down on them.

There were hundreds of arrows heading their way.

She quickly got their magic shield to protect them but there were just so many.

It was like something she experienced before. The speed of the arrows. However, that arrow attack was much stronger than one she’s ever known. She still couldn’t spot the person who was shooting the arrows.

“Were in trouble!”

She shouted over the sound of exploding arrows. In one hand she was holding the weapon with the detecking spell ready and in the other hand was the shield. However, the spell the weapon was set on became weak after a long time of not shooting it.

She looked around to find any of the Oaks but most of them were already dead or terribly injured.

-How am I supposed to do this!

-I’m trying my best to help! Look down!

-Huh?

She then looked down and saw something. She saw a reflection of him in the puddle. He was flying in the air surrounded by white energy light while continuously shooting arrows.

-Get ready!

He said as things were about to get even more dangerous.

Jaehwang was exhausted shooting arrows continuously due to the spell that was still on him but he had to protect himself...
