But with this team, this should be doable!\" Gerard stated confidently with a smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It will be tough though.\" Ron remarked a bit taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just see lizard-like monsters here.\" Adin said as he observed the situation with squinted eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Normally, a lizard monster would be classified as a mere C-rank threat, however, due to the numbers I can understand why this quest was for a B-rank team.\" Judi explained pensively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gerard’s team was currently standing on the wall, which served as the border between Malnor and Rostanta.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I wonder... Aren’t you all capable of dealing with them on your own?\" she asked as she turned her face to the knights standing beside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As ashamed as we are, we’re only stationed here to observe and report any kind of changes around the border. In combat, we would just be a liability to you, after all, we can’t use magic...\" one of the knights answered clumsily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No big deal! We will handle this!\" Gerard meddled in as he pointed with the thumb to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monsters were currently walking aimlessly on the wasteland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had the appearance of a human-sized lizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those lizards were walking on two legs and were holding a weapon in their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some had spears, swords or even axes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what’s the plan?\" Judi asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Plan? No need for that.\" Gerard replied with a wide smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Adin. Ron. After me! You can stay here and support us for now, Judi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gerard was the first one to jump off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wall was fortunately not so high, but if someone with no magic support jumped off, then that person could get injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judi sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I should have known...\" she muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adin and Ron followed up and also got down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the fight between them and the monsters broke out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, everything seemed good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone stood their ground against the lizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Ron had a few problems as he was a D rank, but with Judi supporting the team from the back, the front fighters did not face any critical situations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, the exhaustion was noticeable amongst them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only two lizards were still standing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judi bit her lips and squinted her eyes slightly as she watched the others, who were all bruised up and covered with dirt, rushing towards the remaining enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the lizards took its stance and prepared to launch a pierce attack with its spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gerard sensed it and summoned roots from the ground in order to stop the pierce attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m sorry...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With regret and guilt, Judi slightly changed her aim, when she fired off a fire arrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fire arrow did not hit the enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprised, Gerard looked at the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spot, where the roots emerged from, was ablaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, he turned his attention back to the lizard with the spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roots, which were about to wrap themselves around the spear, were completely burned off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was too late to evade the attack, but he still tried to shift his body to avoid a fatal injury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gerard!\" Adina and Ron shouted in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With nothing protecting him from the attack, Gerad was pierced through his right side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two did not hesitate and finished off the lizard as fast as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gerard! Are you alright?!\" Ron asked concerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I’m fine...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the meantime, Adin was handling the last lizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gathered water in his hand as he was about to launch his final attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, something strange happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lizard dropped his weapon on the ground and took a few steps back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked to the sky fearfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adin looked in the same direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to squint his eyes to see properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is that...?\" he wondered confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Approaching them from the sky were two silhouettes with bat-like wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Letting out an anxious screech, the lizard ran away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, everyone’s gazes were directed at the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, something dark and beam-like was shot from the direction the silhouettes were coming and passed by Adin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt the air brushing strongly through his hair as the beam passed by right beside his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adin could not even react and just stood still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the death scream of the running lizard was heard from behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, did you have to kill him?\" someone with a womanly voice asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why is it bothering you? Aren’t you as bored as I am?\" someone with a boyish and bored voice replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Agape, Gerard’s team was looking at the two creatures, which were now above them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them was a woman seemingly in her early thirties. She wore a black shoulder-free dress, which was revealing her generous cleavage. Her long hair was slicked back at the front and her right eye was covered by a black eye patch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other one was a boy, who seemed the same age as Gerard and the others. He wore loose and wide black pants as well as a tight black singlet. His body was a little bit more trained than the average human in their teenage years and his hair was parted in the middle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, those two shared some similarities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The knights were the first to recognize those as they looked at them in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black hair, black pupils and bat-like wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the knights pointed at them with a quivering finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"D-d-d-demons!\" he shouted with a shaking voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Judi and the others, it was the first time seeing demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While it took them to understand the situation, the knights were already running for their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Martha. They’re getting away.\" the boy said with an anticipating smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, fine... Do what you want, Barnt.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yay!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Barnt stretched his hands up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dark ball was gathered there and had the size of a head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now die!\" Barnt shouted innocently with a still wide smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He threw the ball to the knights, who picked up their pace as they watched the ball approaching them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judi, who stood, on the wall with them, turned the other way and enhanced herself with magic to distance herself from the knights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow lurking over the knights got bigger and bigger until the ball got them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silently, the black ball enlarged and enveloped a part of the wall and the ground beneath it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no noise nor were there any remnants of the wall from the wall flying in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gerard, Adin and Ron were trying to run away, while the two above were distracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ugh!\" Gerard groaned in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They did not make it far yet as Ron was lending Gerard, who was injured, a shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go without me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t be stupid!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have to hurry!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark ball faded slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re kidding me...\" Judi muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In place of the wall, there was now a wide and clean crater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This hit the spot~\" Barnt said satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a weirdo.\" Martha remarked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly after that, their attention shifted towards Gerard and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Will we kill them, too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barnt was already preparing for an attack, but Martha stopped him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, not yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She smirked as she looked down at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They almost escaped from us. Barnt, go and capture them alive.\" she said sinisterly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Barnt flew to them, whereas Martha approached Judi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too bad. If you would have used magic, then maybe you could have escaped. I wonder why you didn’t do so...\" Martha mocked her as she glanced at Gerard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judi’s lips were quivering as she could not make a sound out of her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was on the floor staring up at Martha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing to say? How boring.\" Martha stated disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Barnt appeared behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, I’m done. What now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his arms were Gerard, Adin and Ron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Let’s leave.\" she ordered turning her back on Judi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They spread their wings and leaped into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what about that girl?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martha smirked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She will act as our bait.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1519,"2026-06-05T22:24:02.323Z",1,"novelbin.me","b1ccc854232bcf027f62ebd0466cf2447c84797d48cbc7e6f6cfb3dff47142c7","the-angelic-system-that-turned-my-life-into-hell-chapter-53","the-angelic-system-that-turned-my-life-into-hell-chapter-51",315,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-angelic-system-that-turned-my-life-into-hell-cover.jpg"]
