I created my own system

Gelo's Pov

An arrow hit Sir Justus and Sir Loris.

It was an arrow that hurled at a blind spot and shot on Sir Justus' and Loris's shoulder.

"No!"

I shouted seeing all the blood flow from their shoulders.

"Keep running Nate!"

"Yes, captain!"

What? But they are injured we need to do something!

My thoughts were getting wild while my body tried to break away but Sir Nate's grip wasn't something a ten-year-old like me can break.

So all I could do was watch while he repelled the arrows but then a blade sneakily slashed.

My heart beat fast while my body felt cold as if a bucket of cold water was splashing on me.

"Sir!"

A clanging sound came after and to my relief despite his wounded shoulder he was able to block it.

"And here I thought you run away, Theon"

"I am sorry captain but I adhered to one of your teachings that a soldier must always accomplish his mission no matter the circumstances"

A laugh of mockery escaped from the captain's lip making Theon frown.

"You are a disgrace, Theon"

Aura burst forth transforming into a green protective barrier.

Shielding is one of the regular uses of Aura, as for the advanced type we have.

"Armament!"

The sword in Justus' hand turns into pure green energy while the remaining green aura molds into armor.

"Let's start"

He waves his sword and the incoming arrows turn to pieces.

"CLANG!"

Theon tried to attack as soon as he saw Justus destroy the arrows however his sword was blocked by an invisible force.

"Aura armament, invisible shield"

Theon looked pale when the numbness spread across his body. What he felt was like punching an unbreakable wall. He put so much power into that strike but when he attacked and the invisible wall emerged, the force of impact caused pressure on his skin and tissues beneath it. The force isn't strong enough to break the wall, the energy then transfers into his body, stimulating pain and numbness.

"Argh!"

He jolted back causing an opening on his guard, this split-second opening was well taken by Sir Justus.

His blade crashes into Theon's Aura causing the latter's to break down. He was about to finish the fight, when a whistling sound came to Justus' ears beckoning the arrival of more arrows.

I didn't know how but invisible walls would block all the arrows causing my raging heart to calm down.

"You know we are still in danger so stop spectating like that"

Sir Nate expresses his disbelief seeing me and Blair watching the fight as if we are at a theater.

"This is not some game kids" he added before making a quick dodge to the right.

"We still have our arrow guy"

"It only means we have more than one Archer"

"That's problematic"

Sir Loris and Sir Nate continue to talk while dodging arrows.

Things were heading for the better until the arrows became different.

"Not good"

"What is going on?" I ask feeling nervous.

However, the air began to move differently.

Blair and I looked at each other and saw an arrow made out of wind.

"What the hell is that" I couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It's the combination of magic and weapon arts"

Sir Loris said while moving to the back.

"Go ahead, Nate"

"Yeah!"

I stared at his back blankly, but then a body came flying out of nowhere.

"Who was that!"

From the pit of the rubble, a man stood up strangely his stature was familiar.

"Sir Justus?" I asked, quite confused about the scenario.

He was supposedly fighting against Theon so why was he here? The answer to my question soon arrives, from the back, a horde of demon beasts manages to catch up to us. Their weight shook the earth while their numbers created a cloud of dust that would obstruct one's view.

A horde of beasts and a giant wind arrow are about to reach us and the kingdom of Temar is still out of our reach.

"Keep running!"

The captain ordered before charging his body with more Aura.

I watch attentively wanting to see them survive this dangerous situation.

They will get through this, I prayed until my eyes saw the arrow twist its destination.

Its flying went straight to us, and my body jerked causing Sir Nate to make a throwing stance.

Does this jerk plan to throw us? I hope not.

As the arrow gathers more wind to accelerate the more speed it gains.

"Get down!"

Sir Loris arrived and the first thing he did was summon his Aura and use it to destroy the arrow.

"This...thing is a bit too strong for me"

He realized when his foot made a long deep mark on the ground.

Since he can't completely block the arrow he decided to redirect the attack. He adjusted his body to try to use the force of the arrow but as he did so the extreme gust of wind caused his body to grinded.

The air rustles more violently making it even bigger and harder to redirect.

Loris immediately adjusted his Aura and manipulated the arrow to fly towards the mountains.

"Oh no!"

Blair gasped when he saw Sir Loris's face, curious why I looked up and there I saw his face. His left eye seems to have taken more damage while the other is safe.

"No" Blair couldn't help but say seeing the soldier's face.

"It's okay I am fine" Sir Loris just laughed.

"Don't worry I am really fine"

Despite his previous injury he still smiles. His right arm was shot a while ago now his left eye was also ruined.

"Let's go keep running!"

His voice was still the same but I know how much pain he was feeling.

Every step he took would send shivers and pain across his body.

I thought at that time everything was settled until I saw Sir Justus being maw alive by a demonic beast.

Sir Loris took a gun and started shooting from afar.

Even when he had one functional eye he was able to keep those monsters at bay.

"You okay captain"

"Yeah"

Then the ground shook again I suddenly felt fear that another horde of beast would come. But contrary to my thoughts nothing like that happened. It turns out the reason why Sir Justus was keeping his distance from us was because he was trying to use an Aura bomb.

"Wow"

My mouth was wide open as I saw how the explosion engulfed the entire horde of beasts.

Then from the sky, something suddenly dropped near us.

"Heyya kids"

Sir Justus was safe and not even a scratch injured him, well beside the arrow.

"I think we are far enough from the range of the arrow guy"

The captain said while retracting his Aura.

"Were you scared?" he asked me, all I could do at that time was nod my head.

No more arrows arrived so we thought we were safe until Blair shouted "Watch out!"

All of us looked back but it was too late. Theon was there about to hit Sir Nate with his sword.

Reacting fast to this attack was not other than the captain he moved to intercept the attack but as he did so he noticed something.

"You drugged yourself? Your lifespan will shorten"

"It is a small price to pay to reach your level"

Then Aura was activated on the blade of Theon causing Sir Justus's sword to break.

It happened too fast we don't have time to react.

An arm fell then blood and screams echo through the forest.

Sir Loris went and assisted Sir Justus while Theon grabbed the opportunity to snatch Blair.

"Not a fucking chance"

Sir Nate positioned Blair farther from his reach while drawing me closer.

I'm pretty sure he wouldn't expect the next scene. An enchanted dagger danced across his face forming a line of blood.

"Argh!"

It was his turn to scream while holding his bleeding face.

"And that is our signal to run, Loris!"

"Yeah on it!"

Sir Loris lifted Sir Justus and to my relief, the bleeding stopped it seemed like they used something to heal it.

"You won't get away!" Theon shouted trying to chase us.

"Sorry little guy you won't win this time"

As soon as we enter the border of the kingdom of Temar a teleportation circle welcome us.

"Bye bye"

Sir Loris mockingly said as his body disappeared and reappeared at the Imperial palace.

I breathe and look at Theon again, this time his back is bleeding heavily instead of his face.

"An arm and eye"

I said while aiming with my sword.

"Leave the eye to me" Blair requested which I answered with a nod.

"Go ahead"

He came forward surveying his opponent's body.

"Take your left eye"

"Argh!" he began to resist but because of his current state he soon succumbed to Blair's blessing.

His hand shook but still, he raised it and did what he was commanded.

An ear-piercing cry made my ear hurt, then it became quiet and only the sound of heavy breathing could be heard.

"Now then since you are done"

I walked forward and saw fear in his eyes, those eyes were the same as mine when everything was taken from me. My city, my teacher and almost the new family I made.

"Let me cut you Theon"
