Nathan immediately came out of the building and summoned Nidhogg, saying, “Conserve your stamina for the main dish. We’ll kill the vice leader as quickly as possible.”
Both Fenrir and Nidhogg nodded their heads. Wasting no more time, Nidhogg took off to the sky and alarmed the people.
“What is that?”
“Something flying in the sky!”
“A lizard flying in the sky? Is that the legendary dragon?!”
The people were panicking while Nidhogg was simply scouting the area from the air and pointed at a certain building, indicating the enemy’s summoner.
In that instant, Nathan and Fenrir rushed to the location while Nidhogg dove from the sky.
“What?!” The vice leader was stunned. The two familiars beside him were a tiefling and a desert elf.
‘A tiefling has a connection to fire or heat.’ Nathan frowned, staring at this human with a demon horn and a long tail. After that, he scanned the elf, who seemed to have tanned skin and daggers. She covered her body with a coat and her face with a hood like that of an assassin. ‘An elf variant, huh? Fighting her makes it look like she is an assassin from Persia.’
Still, there was no pity that could be given to the enemy. Without hesitation, Nathan waved down his hand. “Fenrir. You get the tiefling while Nidhogg gets the elf.”
Fenrir leaped toward the tiefling, whose hands turning red as blazing fire escaped from the pores on his palms. He shot the red-colored flame toward Fenrir.
“Waaf!” Fenrir barked, dispersing the flame completely. He used his long tail to slap Fenrir away, but Fenrir did the same, stopping the tail.
The tiefling hurriedly used the claws-like hands to grab Fenrir, but the latter simply overpowered him with his paws before biting his arm and ripping it apart.
“Aaarrrgghh!” The tiefling was screaming as Fenrir slapped him away.
The desert elf had it much worse.
Nidhogg directly dove toward her. She managed to block him with her daggers before falling to her knees, avoiding him.
However, Nidhogg used his tail and grabbed her waist, tossing her to a building as he flew through a building and crushed anything in its path.
“Kh!” The elf managed to get up, but Nidhogg was already in front of her, letting out a fire breath.
Looking at how his familiars get overpowered by Nathan’s familiar made the vice leader panic. He never thought that the enemies would be this strong. If it was the angel or the fallen angel, he could buy more time.
On the other hand, Nathan realized how accurate the information was. The opponent was weaker than the terrorists, considering he was a failure of a student.
“Go away!” The summoner blasted Nathan with his Ena, but the latter simply took it head-on with his barrier.
The summoner waved his curved blade to cut down the barrier, but Nathan simply let him cut it as he kicked the enemy in the gut.
Right after, he fired his gun in rapid succession, creating several holes in his body.
“You—” The vice leader waved his sword, but it was too late. Nathan used the technique he learned from the Dragon King. The enemy was stunned because he was struck, even though Nathan’s fist was still two meters (6 feet) away. “Wha—!”
The Dragon Fist blew him to the wall. It wasn’t that big of a crash, but it was enough to hinder the enemy’s movement for two or three seconds as Nathan delivered the killing blow.
The angel created a barrier with his light element, while the fallen angel just killed all the bandits coming her way because she knew the angel wouldn’t kill even one bandit.
However, the real problem started right after. The fallen angel noticed the incoming enemies from the sky and immediately landed next to Nathan.
“The enemies are coming back.”
Nathan couldn’t help but smile. “I know this is going too well. Sera needs a bit more time, so we will have to stop them by ourselves.”
“What are we going to do?”
“Just follow my instructions. We will buy some time first and engage them once we have a favorable situation.” Nathan nodded.
“Alright.”
Nathan immediately signaled to Nidhogg and Fenrir to follow him. He then moved toward the building on the edge, climbing to the roof.
He crossed his arms to make a brave pose.
“You have finally come!” Nathan grinned, looking at the leader. He noticed that the leader actually wore his coat and gloves, which made him feel displeased. Nevertheless, he would just get it back after defeating him.
The bandits suddenly stopped the moment they saw their leader raising his right fist.
“Come, come!” Nathan waved his hand, signaling the angel and the fallen angel to come to his location. There were still some bandits left, but it didn’t matter. Anubis could handle the rest.
“How come they are so fast?! Even if they are rushing from the village at top speed, they should need more than thirty minutes.” The angel frowned. Ignoring his comment, the fallen angel said, “Serafina should need another ten minutes. We have to hold them back for ten minutes.”
Fenrir landed on top of a roof next to them.
“What? A wolf?”
“Is he the rumored beast summoner?!” The bandits panicked.
“Don’t back down. He is still not strong enough to go against me. If we manage to beat him once more, we’ll definitely get a lot of money from the Frexia Academy.” The leader waved his hand, gallantly standing at the front.
Nathan said, “You should have surrendered the moment you realized my identity.”
“You are talking nonsense. You won’t be able to defeat me.” When he raised his fist into the air, five figures appeared next to him.
The first one was a gnoll. It had light brown fur, which seemed to be similar to the color of the sand. It had a left iron arm and its right hand was holding a stick with a spiked metal ball attached to it.
The second one was actually a rat-person. It had a long mouse tail and a pair of sword shorts on his hands.
The problem started with the third one, a desert elf. Her weapons were daggers, which seemed like she was an expert in close combat or even assassination.
Nathan’s gaze soon shifted to the fourth familiar, an orc. Unlike the orc he had seen in the academy that had a body similar to a pig, this one had a muscular body. He was holding a long, curved blade and wore pauldrons and gauntlets. An extraordinary amount of Ena was leaking out of his body. His bloodshot eyes were staring at Fenrir, who shared the same sentiment.
Still, the biggest problem was actually the fifth familiar.
It was a giant. Nathan couldn’t help but raise his head, looking at the giant that was ten meters (32 feet) tall. It was holding a huge iron club that looked like he could easily destroy a couple of buildings with just a single swing.
The leader laughed. “Hahahaha. I already told you I’m going to beat you. You better be ready to fork out money if you treasure your life.”
Nathan couldn’t help but smile. “And slapping your face will be satisfying! Nidhogg!”
Suddenly, a dragon took off to the sky, covering the sun with his body. It gathered his Ena in his throat before releasing a purple fire breath.
