Chapter 289 What scared?
Kyle inhaled fresh air the moment he emerged from the portal. The sky was clear and bright. He looked back at the towering castle gate behind him with a sigh. It was shining brightly. Suddenly, a thought emerged in his mind.
'I took the last shield that means this treasure land is empty now.'
With a smile, he gathered mana on his index finger and started scribbling on the gate. The words were large and clear almost damaging the once beautiful castle gate.
"Caution; Don't enter the little phoenix took everything."
Kyle laughed out loud at his work. Now, at least the ones who saw this treasure land will know that it's empty. Sitting on his head, Bia's eyebrow couldn't help but twitch at his actions, she could not believe he was lying so blatantly.
-'Are you done? Don't wake me up for a while I am gonna sleep now.'
With a low grumble, Bia made herself comfortable on his head and closed her eyes but then a low barely audible whisper sounded behind the duo. Her eyes fluttered open with annoyance.
-'What now?'
Kyle looked back with narrowed eyes but the place around him was empty.
"Strange, I also heard something."
He kicked off his left foot and started floating mid-air. A few familiar dark flying figures appeared in his vision but he ignored them and made his way toward a nearby mountain to find a quiet cave. However, only after a minute, a pair of crimson wings appeared in his path.
Kyle abruptly halted in his tracks and due to his sudden movement Bia snapped open her drowsy eyes.
-'What happened!? Can you let me sleep just for ten minutes!'
Kyle frowned and gazed at the arm-sized flying insect in front of him. It was quite similar to a wild butterfly but the wings around the insect were larger and more thicker.
"A moth?"
With a sigh, he was ready to tell Bia that it was just an insect but the next thing that happened made him swallow back his words.
In front of his eyes, the little, almost adorable moth opened his mouth wide before spitting out a large cluster of sparkling grass in front of him.
Kyle winced when he saw rows of razor-sharp teeth inside the moth's mouth. Those teeth were very similar to a certain cute squirrel he wanted to forget so badly.
"The heck?"
In an instant, he distances himself from the sparkling grass. From the dense mana around the grass, he was sure it was not ordinary. But no way in hell he would touch something that came out from someone's else mouth!
The moth's eyes brightened as he looked at Kyle from head to toe like he was assessing the world's biggest treasure. His tongue darted out from his mouth to lick his lips as he pushed the floating grass toward Kyle.
"Eat it."
Kyle's eyebrow twitched as he stared at the moth in front of him with strange eyes. Wisps of blue flames appeared around his body because he wanted to finish the moth and be done with it, but before he could attack a sharp wind gale struck him from behind.
Bia lost her balance when his body staggered forward in mid-air. She freaked out and immediately flapped her wings to fly.
-'Eeek there is one more behind you!'
She looked down, ready to increase her size and grab him if he actually lost his balance but Kyle was gone.
-'Huh?'
Just like her, the two moths were also taken aback by Kyle's sudden disappearance. But then, out of nowhere, Kyle's disheveled figure appeared in the distance. He quickly regained his balance mid-air with a painful groan.
His hoodie was torn from behind, exposing a deep gash that painted his back in shades of crimson. A trail of blood seeped out from the wound before vanishing into his clothes. With knitted brows, Kyle moved his hand to touch the wet sensation cascading down his back and his face paled when he saw blood.
"So, the shield is not going to protect me from behind?"
He noticed with a dry laugh, that he didn't like pain. After drinking a healing potion with a blank expression, Kyle moved his head back to look at the person who attacked him before his eyes locked onto the two similar-looking golden moths. They looked momentarily confused after his disappearance.
'They are strong at least (S+)-Rank but I think I can handle it if there are only two.'
Wisps of blue flames surged around his body and he vanished from his place. Only to appear behind one of the months. He was ready to attack but before he could a loud cry rang out in the air.
"Brother! He is behind you!"
The moth in front of Kyle suddenly flapped his wings and a burst of wind sent him flying backward.
Bia's loud voice echoed inside Kyle's mind as he flipped mid-air to regain his balance with a painful expression.
-'There's one more! On your left!'
"Can't they all come out at once? Don't tell me there are more."
Kyle frowned and distanced himself from the three golden months. Sweat trickled down his forehead because just now due to the sudden movement his injury worsened.
'Now, I don't think I can manage.'
He looked up at Bia with a serious expression.
'Leave in a different direction. I will find you after I am successful in slipping away.'
-'Will you be alright?'
Kyle shrugged his shoulders at her question and vanished from his place.
-'Why did I even ask?'
The moth scrambled to follow behind the duo. However, due to Kyle's disappearance, their target was Bia but before they could follow her Kyle suddenly appeared in front of them.
The moment he appeared, countless ice spears formed around him. The air cracked when the number increased with each passing second. Kyle tilted his head and his eyes turned cold.
"What scared?"
The moths looked at each other but it was evident from their fearless eyes that the attack was nothing to them. They shouted simultaneously.
"Grab him!"
Kyle clicked his tongue and threw the ice spears at them before vanishing again.
