Beast Evolution

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

A light on top of the carriage was the only light in the area.

Lily and Arya were quick to react, they swung their swords at the wolf, and the wolf was quick and dodge their blades.

The wolf leaped in the air toward Arya in an attempt to slash her, but she dodged the claws of the wolf. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

Lily slashed one of the wolf's legs as it landed, Arya attempted to finish the wolf off but the wolf ran on three legs into the bush.

"Why did you let it run away" the merchant shouted at them, "take a sword and go kill it yourself" Arya shouted back at the merchant.

"Sorry," he said in a small voice.

"That's the last of them I think," Ray said, "so I see you can use a weapon," Jack said to Ray, "maybe there is hope for you at the knight academy after all".

Ray ignored Jack and ran to meet the guard jack also followed, 'this transformation skill is a mess, my body is already tired from this small battle, now I wonder if I can make it to the knight academy.

The guard was uninjured and had defeated five of the wolves, "are you guys alright?" the guard asked them.

"Yea, we are fine" they replied together and looked at themselves. "I think they are all dead," the guard said, "the girls" Ray and Jack ran at full speed towards the other carriage.

Arya and Lily were still looking for the wolf when another wolf came out of the bushes, "that's not the one we faced earlier" Lily said, "yes, that's right".

This time Lily ran towards the wolf, "hey slow down" Arya shouted, the wolf seeing Lily running towards it also charged.

Another wolf came out at Arya's back, "look" the merchant shouted as he saw the wolf, before Arya could react the wolf slashed her shoulder.

"Argh" she moved back and fell to the ground, the merchant and the riders had already run into the carriage. Lily had succeeded in killing the wolf that she attacked, she turned back and found a wolf on top of Arya struggling to kill her.

"No" Lily shouted and ran towards Arya, the wolf that they injured earlier used this opportunity to attack Lily.

As she ran toward Arya the wolf jumped out of the bushes and attempted to slash her when a spear pierced its body and it fell to the ground.

Lily also fell to the ground due to shock, Jack was already running toward Arya.

Arya despite her injured shoulder used her sword to stop the wolf from biting her.

*slash*

Jack slashed the body of the wolf and dragged it off Arya, Jack was angry and used his strength to behead the wolf.

Arya attempted to sit up but her shoulder wound was pretty deep. "Hey, are you alright," Jack asked Arya, "Yes, it's just a cut".

"This is not a cut," Jack said as he got close to her, "you should apply your mint", "it will hurt," Arya said in a low voice, "yes, but your injury will get better".

"Are you okay?" Ray said as he stretch his hands and helped Lily up, "yes, I'm fine".

"I'm sorry," Ray told Lily, "sorry, for what?" she asked, "for not protecting you", "huh, it's not your job to protect me, I'm also a warrior," Lily said blushing.

"I don't think Arya is alright," Lily said as Jack was carrying her princess style toward the carriage, Lily and Ray ran towards them.

"What's wrong?" Lily asked Jack, "she injured her shoulder", "keep her down," Ray said and they all looked at him, "what, why?" jack asked, "just keep her down" Ray shouted.

"Don't mess with me" jack said as he kept her down slowly, [strong healing] Ray placed his hands on Arya's shoulder and a white light shined on Ray's hand.

A warm sensation engulfed Arya as the pain she felt from her shoulder disappeared, 'wow' that was the face Jack was making seeing magic up close for the first time, Lily had seen magic but it wasn't healing.

The [strong healing] was more powerful than [light heal] and it also consume more mana, Ray had forgotten that his mana was halved due to the transformation skill.

After healing Arya, Ray's eyes were spinning due to the amount of mana he used. "Thanks, man," Jack said to Ray, Ray stood up and staggered a little before Lily held him then he fell unconscious.

"Ray, Ray" Lily tapped Ray in an attempt to wake him up, "I think he's unconscious," Lily told them, "oh," Jack said. "What?" the girls asked him, "this was why he couldn't go to the mage academy," Jack told them.

"So, he can't use magic well," Arya said, 'now it all makes sense, why would a magician attend the knight academy because he can't control magic well' Lily thought.

Little did they know that Ray's reasons to attend the knight academy were different, first he wanted to learn how this world works, he also wanted to be good at using his spear, and he didn't attend the mage academy because he was afraid that a powerful mage would see through his disguise.

The carriage door opened, the merchant and the riders were found hiding in the carriage, "get out" Jack shouted at them, the merchant and the riders came out of the carriage.

Lily laid ray gently on the seat in the back, "is he dead?" the merchant asked as he saw Ray unconscious, "no he not" Lily said. free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

"You owe us big time," Jack said to the merchant, "I'm sorry, I will make it up to you," the merchant said.

"We need a place to stay before entering the Knight academy," Lily said to the merchant, "that's not a problem, I have a big house in the capital, you are welcome to stay there," the merchant said.

'Finally, the biggest problem had been solved' Lily said inwardly.
