Boom!
We leaped down to the next floor.
Boom!
One more down.
“Alright, this should be the last floor.” I lifted my sword and slammed it down.
“On it!”
Celeste took the ghost while I went for the knight. Her wind magic was able to render the ghost mostly useless as it floated up in the air. With a few air blades, she had managed to cut it to shreds. With Alysia in hand, I was able to recieve blows from the knight without much trouble. A moment later, the knight dodged as several spells came my way from the woman. This turned out to be a bit trickier. I leaped to the side a bit later, but the spells seemed to move like they were locked onto me.
A wind wall appeared and took the brunt of the strike. That was Celeste. I took a breath as the attack was blocked and I was able to regain my feet. It looked like fighting in a group was still the best. I attacked the knight again. Celeste managed to finish off the ghost all while keeping the witch lady busy. Once the ghost was defeated, she concentrated on the lady, and all the pressure on me was finally gone. I defeated the knight. I wouldn’t call it an easy fight. Had I been another man, I would have been half dead. However, with the cheat-like White Mage, I repaired all the damage.
I pointed my sword at the little boy. “Your turn.”
The kid looked at me, threw back his head, and then started crying. His wails caused the fighting between the witch and Celeste to die down. The witch lifted a finger as Celeste was about to attack. Celeste stopped her attack, and the witch ran over and kneeled to the boy, and started dabbing his tears with her robe. She then shot me a scathing look. Celeste caught up in the moment, also looked at me, and shook her head disapprovingly.
Suddenly, I made a small child cry and all the women were glaring at me. When did I become the bad guy?
