Nadra didn’t expect Umeza to just suddenly attack like that. As a veteran orc warrior, he expected Umeza to at least issue a declaration or a warning before attacking. Umeza’s punch was very fast. Before he knew it, he was already flying backward from the impact.

He made a backflip and landed on his legs.

“Asshole!” He cursed back. He brandished an axe that was crackling with lightning in one hand. His other hand held a wand which was now forming a spell formation.

The spell was completed and multiple fireballs were shot at Umeza.

Umeza used Vines-infused Fist. His two fists were covered by thorny vines. He didn’t dodge the incoming fireballs. Doing so would let Hans and the woman become the fireballs’ targets.

Umeza’s fists punched rapidly. They struck each of the fireballs and destroyed them mid-flight. When all the fireballs were neutralized, he saw that Nadra had run away.

“Coward!” He yelled.

Nadra knew he was not Umeza’s opponent. Umeza was more than ten levels stronger than him, after all. His objective at the moment was to flee this village.

Umeza summoned his three-headed wolf and had it chase after Nadra. He couldn’t leave the place as he wanted to make sure that Hans and the woman with the baby were okay.

Nadra saw the three-headed wolf chasing behind him. He cast a spell. Blue chains came out of the ground right underneath the wolf. The wolf was nimble enough to jump away when the blue chains almost coiled around his body, but its legs still tripped over the chains. It stumbled and fell to the ground.

Nadra made use of the chance to put more distance.

His eyes scanned the surroundings for a place where fewer enemies were. It was difficult as the entire place was in chaos.

He had to escape this place and send a report to Abasi. He was dejected. The tribe chief would be very disappointed in him. This operation was supposed to just start. They had been preparing for weeks. They had just been given the command to dial things up. How did they get found out so fast after just a few murders? To make it worse, even their hideout was discovered so soon.

He would have to accept punishment when he returned, but he would have to make sure that he could return first.

He ran to the side part of the village wall. There seemed to be fewer enemies here. He cast the Soar spell and his body took to the sky.

When he floated past the wall, he was surprised to see a company of outworlders guarding outside the wall.

“Fire!” Water Lily ordered.

The Elite Marksman shot their arrows while the magic users cast their spells. Nadra hurriedly cast Magic Wall to block the attacks. Just as the barrage of ranged attacks ended, he saw a group of Inquisitors take to the sky. On their back were the shiny wings from their skill, Angelic Possession.

“Move aside!” Nadra bellowed.

His glaive swung left and right, striking these inquisitors who approached him. As a level 72 rare elite, he was still too strong for these average players. The players were sent toppling away with each strike.

A huge chunk of ice suddenly formed above him. It had been so abrupt. His soar spell also didn’t give him much flying speed. The ice block fell on top of him. He received damage and was forced to the ground.

“Rarrggghh…!!” Black tattoos covered his body as he activated Berserk. With increased strength, he threw the ice block away.

He glared at the one who conjured the ice block. That would be Water Lily. She was in the process of casting another spell when she heard a voice from above.

“Allow me!”

A humanoid dragon slammed into Nadra from above. Nadra didn’t know what had hit him. He felt as if an entire mountain had fallen on top of him, but he wasn’t going to just let himself stay on the ground. He used his two hands to forcefully push himself up.

As he did, a feeling of a thousand sharp blades pounded his back.

“Aagghhh…!!” He screamed in pain. He felt as if he had been cut to pieces. He then felt his body getting locked by cold energy. He looked and saw that an ice ring had formed around his body.

That was Water Lily’s spell, Ice Bind, which was an evolved spell from Mage’s Magic Bind.𝗇𝑜𝐕𝑒𝐿𝗇𝐞xt.𝗰𝒪𝔪

Jack in his supreme dragon form took out a runic rope and bound Nadra who was still incapacitated.

Four Winds’ force had pushed into the village hall and came down to the underground chamber. With their help, the Raretooth members who had not died were soon apprehended. Jack received the message of Nadra’s sightings. He had sent messages informing Four Winds and the others about this orc. If possible, he wanted to capture the enemy leader. Nadra sure had more intel compared to the other Raretooth members. Jack immediately flew to this place once he got Water Lily’s message.

“The battle seems to be almost over,” Water Lily said. The sounds of battle inside the village were getting lesser. “Do you think there are any civilian casualties?”

“I don’t know,” Jack said. He hoped not. But in a battle, accidents were hard to avoid. Their troops probably paid attention to not harming the civilians but the enemies might not, especially the Raretooth members who tried to flee. If one civilian was hurt, even if it was not done by their troops, the other civilians might misunderstand it to be their doing. These misunderstood civilians might retaliate and their troops would have no choice but to fight back.

Jack knew he had no control over these things, but he would still try to prevent them if he could.

“Watch him,” Jack said, referring to the bound Nadra. He then flew up and surveyed from the sky. If he saw any civilians or commoners who were getting attacked, either by their troops or the enemies, he would swoop down and save them.

He saw Hans. The noble was still safe. His royal agents were surrounding the man, guarding him. He didn’t know they now kept Hans in a tight lease after losing him some time ago.

The battle didn’t last long. Hasimu knew it was over. He lost many soldiers. A good portion of the Raretooth tribe had also been apprehended. He called for a surrender and everyone stopped fighting.
