The Magic Knight's
Chapter 18: Save Magma Island!

Fang's body fell limp on the ground with a lot of blood flowing from his back.

"Is it because I'm not wearing the Full Body Black Dragonfish, so it resulted in my moving speed and also my reaction speed decreasing? I didn't dodge the attack - the attack!"

Fang closed both eyes.

"W-Will it just get here? Am I gonna die here?"

Fang began to give up on this fight, and assumed that he had lost and would soon fall from the field.

'No matter what happens, you have to meet me back alive!'

Fang opened his eyes again, he was reminded of the words from Yukina who told him to stay alive under any circumstances.

"I'm sorry Yukina! I almost gave up this battle, and broke my promise to you!"

With a wound on his right leg, Fang forced himself to get back on his feet and still chose to fight against that Magma Salamander with his remaining strength.

......................

"This floor, right?" Yukina looked down.

"Many soils have been coated by rocks made by Magma. My path is right! That means I'm close to the main place of this Magma Pyre!"

Then Yukina went back on her journey. However, soon he saw that there were many mountains in front of him.

(Is this what the main headquarters of the Magma Pyre looks like? This place is very filled with volcanoes that are still active! More importantly than that, I also have to quickly find the residents of Magma Village!)

Yukina looked - look at the state of the surrounding area slowly - so that the land was not known by Magma Pyre.

(That's it! I found them! How could they be held in that iron prison? What is it that is wearing around their necks? Is that an iron necklace for prisoners? As the name suggests, he is a monster!) Yukina felt very upset towards Magma Pyre, when she saw the Magma Village residents being treated like that.

Yukina slowly approached the iron prison to free the inhabitants from the confinement of the Magma Pyre. As Yukina began to approach the iron prison, one of the children who saw Yukina's whereabouts began to shout.

(Oh, no! Why would he scream like that? I must immediately conceal my existence, before I am known to the Magma Pyre!)

As Magma Pyre listened to the screaming voice of the little boy, he immediately turned his head towards the source of his voice. However, before the Magma Pyre saw, Yukina had wiped away her existence as well as her physical body. That way no one can see or feel the air of the existence of Yukina.

(Almost I got caught, fortunately I was able to perform that skill, although this skill also has certain limitations. Sooner or later this skill will definitely be inactive, and when that happens, I will be caught. Therefore I must quickly save them before that happens!)

Then Yukina used her telepathic abilities to contact and speak to one of the residents inside the prison.

"Can you hear my voice?" Yukina asked one of the residents.

"Yes-yes?" one of the residents was confused because he could hear a voice in his head.

"I am Yukina, the emissary of the Iroas academy who is assigned to complete the mission. And save this island!"

"O-oh. Please save us!" one of the people contacted by Yukina asked for help.

"Calm yourself! I will definitely save you all!"

Yukina prepares - ready to free the Magma Village residents who are confined in the iron prison belonging to Magma Pyre.

Then Yukina connected her telepathy to all the adults in the prison.

"Please listen! here I will free you all! When I have made the ice wall, you run as far away from this place as possible! And find a safe place for you to take shelter! While I will fight and defeat this monster!"

That was the thing Yukina had said before she released them all.

(This Skill has reached its limit! Now is the time to save them all in this confinement!)

Eve's existence and Yukina's physical body begin to be seen by all.

"Now!"

"Freeze."

Along with the appearance of the existence and physical body of Yukina, he immediately froze the prison as well as an iron necklace that tied the necks of the residents. The iron prison and necklace were instantly destroyed.

"Now run away from here!" Yukina shouted to the residents, and told them all to run away from this place.

"Ice Cliff."

"Little girl, do you know what you've done just now, huh?!"

Magma Pyre said that to Yukina with a hint of anger from her. However, Yukina did not even say anything to answer the conversation from Magma Pyre.

"The inhabitants of Magma Village will be made slaves to serve me! However, you came and ruined my plan. You have to pay for it! I will make you a slave!"

Magma Pyre takes Yukina back. However, again - again Yukina did not say anything.

"Why are you just quiet? ANSWER ME LITTLE GIRL!!!"

Magma Pyre became even more angry with Yukina, because she never returned the words of the Magma Pyre.

With an angry expression, Yukina spoke.

"Be quiet! The longer you talk, the more I'm sick of you. You despicable creature!"

After listening to Yukina's words, it made the anger of Magma Pyre even more intense.

Then Magma Pyre conducted a summoning to summon her 10 Magma Salamander warriors. However, this Magma Salamander was different from the one that Fang was fighting against. It's much stronger!

"Even with just my soldiers it's enough to beat you little girl! My soldiers, attack him!"

Then the Magma Salamanders moved to attack Yukina. These warriors from the Magma Pyre had a statistic of ability that was stronger than the Magma Salamander in general.

With a speed that normal eyes could not follow, they made an attack towards Yukina. They swung their spears at Yukina's body.

(What the fuck is with these guys?! The movement speed and also their attacking speed were very different from the Magma Salamander I met with Fang. Their bodies are also different, they stand using their 2 legs like a human.)

Despite that speed, Yukina was able and managed to dodge all the attacks that the Magma Salamanders had launched. Even Yukina can also counterattack by throwing her kicks at some of her enemies.

"Your movements aren't bad nor are they little girls! But, are you able to survive with this?" Magma Pyre ready for attack.

Suddenly the body of Magma Pyre grew. The body was continuously enlarged, to the size of a mountain. With its body as big as a mountain, it also had a medium-sized volcano sitting on its back. It was the original form of the Magma Pyre monster.

(I knew that the original shape of his body was big. Magma Pyre is one of the monsters that has the ability to change the size of its body. He can shrink his body to the size of a human, and can raise up to the size of a mountain. However, that doesn't mean my strength is below it!" Yukina felt that body size did not guarantee a comparison between strengths.

Suddenly the Magma Salamanders retreated and moved away from around Yukina.

"Earthquakes."

Magma Pyre stepped one of his feet onto the ground, and it made a tremor that encompassed the entire island.

...****************...

"Ge-What is this vibration?" Fang felt a tremor created by Magma Pyre.

Then Fang, who was still fighting Magma Salamander, turned his back and looked back. He saw the existence of a very large Magma Pyre.

"W-what's that? Is that a monster too? I can't see it clearly, because of the great distance. But I can feel his aura. Is that the monster that Yukina is fighting? I know Yukina is strong. Don't die, Yukina!"

Fang who felt the aura from the Magma Pyre also felt intimidated and scared.

In contrast to Yukina, Fang felt intimidated and frightened due to the air of Magma Pyre. However, that was not the case for Yukina. Even after looking directly in front of his eyes, he remained ordinary without feeling intimidated or afraid.

"With this vibration, I must strengthen my footing!"

Then Yukina froze the ground around her, and wrapped her feet in ice to strengthen her footing.

However, suddenly the footing under Yukina collapsed, and made it fall into the rubble hole. The footing collapsed quite deeply, and made a huge hole. So that keeps Yukina trapped inside.

Magma Pyre bowed his body, then returned to unleash his attack.

"Volcano Strike."

Volcanic eruptions on its back also occurred. The lava coming from the eruption directly led to the hole where Yukina was trapped.

And the hole was completely covered by the lava produced by the attack from the Magma Pyre.

"Your face is beautiful. However, it looks like your beauty will only leave bones" said Magma Pyre.
