Chapter 330 - The Ark Of The Tumbling Boulder

Unfortunately for him, he did not realize that the rock had been kicked with so much power that its target was destroyed. And that was a piece of driftwood, that was stopping a large boulder from tumbling down. As it collected speed, it gradually created a landslide.

Gab, amid his roaming, did not realize how high he went. By the time that boulder reaches the village, the landslide would cover the entire town. As the boulder started to roll off its side, Gab had already started to make his way back to the village.

It was only then he felt the soft rumble of something. A few seconds later, he witnessed the boulder tumble past him and bȧrėly managed to dodged it. Something clicked in his brain and he feared for the worst. As much as he hated the people there, he didn't want them to die.

There was still time before the boulder fully crushes the village so he quickly dashed towards it. When he reached the village, he started shouting and screaming that a large boulder was heading their way and they should evacuate immediately..

This caught everyone's attention, especially the young girl in the hood from before. But of course, this young girl being the Valkyrie quickly headed in the direction of the boy who kept screaming. But the village people started to restrain him and pinned him down.

"Let me go! Please, there's a huge boulder that's coming our way! We have to get out!" yelled Gab, with his head being plummeted to the floor.

"Wait! What are you doing to that poor kid?!" yelled the young girl, revealing herself as Mavislin.

"Lady Roydon! Pay no heed to this scum! He is just a prankster!"

"No matter what, he still a child?! Is this how you treat children in this village?! Did I save a child-torturing town?!" boomed the Valkyrie as she stood in between the ȧduŀts and Gab.

Everyone was shocked when she spat out those words of insult. Ah, yes. This was the time that Mavislin did not bother to have a filter for her words. She was just a kid, after all, so she did not know what kind of consequences words would have on others.

The same person that they owed their life to years ago was now hurling words of insult at them. Gab finally managed to get his face out from the ground and the first thing he saw was that young girl standing in front of him.

He was speechless as the Valkyrie turned to look at him with glaring eyes. He shivered, realizing that death by the villagers wasn't so bad after all.

"You! You kept shouting and screaming that something was wrong! What is going on?" asked Mavislin, in a demanding tone.

Gab froze up before weakly pointing to the landslide behind Mavislin. She frantically turned around, finding that a large boulder was leading the charge. She then breathed in deeply, absorbing the moisture from around her. Her Aura shined like no tomorrow.

It was aquamarine, signifying that it wasn't as powerful as her present-day form. But it could still do its job, nonetheless. Any Mage from afar could see that she was still not as powerful as a mȧturė Valkyrie or high-ranking Mage, but that was enough for her.

Yes, that was it. That was why Gab wanted to be under her leadership. Though in some cases, 'being enough' is not good, Mavislin knew what was the limits of an individual. Showing too much and you'll risk another thing. Too little and you'll never reach your goal.

She knew how much was enough. And right now, there was no need to put on a grand show. Saving the lives of the ones most in need was her priority now. Who cares if others talk down about yourself? You don't let the demons of your past haunt your future.

"See? He speaks the truth! He may be a prankster, but it doesn't mean that you can turn away from his warnings! Had he not come to us to warn everyone, this place would be nothing but history!" scolded Mavislin as she made the threat vanish.

"But, we thought it might be a prank! He loves doing that!" protested a villager.

"So what if he is?!" shouted Mavislin.

She then towered over Gab's small frame and picked him up by his little waist. Mavislin, with determined eyes, held the kid up for the villagers to see.

"He saved you. Twice. And this is what he gets?!"
