Chapter 30 30 Attack

"Maybe." Ray answered

"Oh, it's really rare for someone to be a tamer." The guy said.

"What are you going to the capital to do?" the girl asked them.

"To join the knight academy," Lily replied.

"We are also joining the knight academy, that is after we register as adventurers," the girl said.

"Hey mage, are you also joining the knight academy?" The guy asked Ray, "I'm not a mage, and yes I am joining the knight academy."

"No pets are allowed in the knight academy, where are you going to hide yours."

"Really, are pets not allowed?" Ray asked Lily, before she could speak, the guy cut her off.

"Dude, knight academy is a place for people without mana, so no one there is a tamer therefore no pet allowed." He replied.

"I will figure that out when we get there." Ray said.

"That is if you can even pass the test," the guy said with a smirk.

"What do you mean by that?" Ray was getting angry.

"I mean why would a mage join the knight academy unless it's because of someone." he said slightly squinting at Lily.

"You are really getting on my nerves!" Ray sounded angry.

"Really, what are you going to do about it?" Asked the guy playfully.

This guy just reminded Ray of Steve

"Afraid? I thought so." the guy said a small smirk gained victory over his face.

"If you want to get beat up so badly, we can have a shot at it," Ray said with confidence.

"Yea, we should have a duel."

"Jack, stop it, what is wrong with you?" The girl shouted at him. Apparently, his name was Jack, he had a built figure with black short hair and seems just around Ray's age.

"Nothing is wrong with me, he started it," Jack said.

"I'm sorry," the girl told Ray.

"At least she has a good character," Ray said. "What do you mean by that?" Jack shouted.

"Ray, stop it," Lily told him. They were seriously going to fight in the carriage if not for the girls' intervention.

The girl following Jack was Arya, they were friends since childhood, they did almost everything together and even trained together, to Jack, Arya was like his sister, now that they were of age they are joining the knight academy to hone their skills. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

The ride was silent as both parties kept to themselves, "Here." Lily gave Ray some pieces of bread and meat.

"Thanks."

Ray ate the bread and gave the meat to his pet wolf.

The day ran faster as they were in the carriage, it was nighttime already, the carriage stopped and they all got down.

'Why did we stop?" Ray could hear an argument from the first carriage, the rider of the second carriage walked towards the first carriage to find out why they stopped.

"I paid you, continue the journey!" The merchant shouted at the rider for stopping.

"We should rest, and besides dangerous beasts roam this forest we shouldn't disturb them." the rider told the merchant.

"These goods that are with me are supposed to go on sale tomorrow, move it!" The merchant shouted.

"Why are you worried about beasts? I will protect this carriage." The merchant's bodyguard spoke. The other rider came close to the merchant carriage.

"What is wrong?" the second rider asked.

"He wants to continue the journey, even though it's night.", "It's safe to continue the journey, I'm also going to keep moving," the second rider said.

"See, I wish I hired him instead of you." The merchant complained, and the rider continued the journey. Ray and the group also continued moving.

"How long does it usually take to reach the capital?" Ray asked Lily, "I don't really know, I have only been to the capital when I was little."

*Boom*

The carriage where Ray and the others were inside suddenly hit something, "Argh!"

The sound made Ray and the others exit the carriage to see what was going on.

"What is wrong?" Jack asked the rider.

The merchant and the rider ran towards the other carriage.

"Something is attacking!" the merchant shouted as he arrived, "What is attacking?" Ray asked.

"I don't know." the merchant shouted.

"Stay here," Ray said to Lily and he ran towards the first carriage, using his night vision Ray looked around and saw movement in the bushes around them.

"Wolves." He whispered.

"Where is he going without a weapon?" Jack asked himself loudly, Jack went to the carriage and took his sword, and ran after Ray.

Ray reached the first carriage and saw the merchant bodyguard, the wolves were not attacking but they were circling the carriage.

Both of Ray's blood spears appeared and he took a battle stance in case the wolves attacked.

"Where is the rider?" Ray asked the bodyguard.

"He's safe inside the carriage, what are you doing outside?" The body asked.

"I came to help," Ray said.

"Stay close, wolves usually attack in groups." the guard told Ray.

The wolves stopped moving.

"It's time." Ray muttered

The first wolf rushed toward the guard, the guard was holding a sword and a shield, and he reacted quickly by using the shield to stop the wolf.

Another wolf rushed straight at Ray

"Easy peasy."

*Swoosh*

The wolf was slashed in the stomach by Jack and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing?" Ray asked.

"Protecting a weak mage." Jack said as he rushed into the bushes.

Ray ran after Jack because where he was going three wolves were there, the wolves charged toward Ray and Jack. Ray already knew how to defeat wolves so it felt easy for him.

Ray also watched Jack's movement, "He knows how to use a sword." Ray mumbled.

"You have to protect me," the merchant said to Lily and Arya as they were holding swords, "We also need to protect ourselves!" Arya shouted at the merchant.

A wolf came out of the bushes toward Lily and Arya, and the wolf growled and charged at them.
