Chapter 358 We have got a lot of work
Kyle rubbed his hands as he hovered above the cats. A few nearby monsters attacked him, but he quickly finished them off.
One of the inferno cat's eyes darted around. She wanted to escape because she had seen the human fight before. He would just disappear and reappear out of thin air.
Kyle chuckled when he saw panic in their eyes. The duo truly knew when to retreat. He hummed and vanished again.
The moment he disappeared, the cats panicked. One of them jumped off toward the forest, ready to escape, but it froze in its tracks when the same human landed in front of her. He cracked his knuckles with a frustrated expression and ran his fingers through his hair.
"How about fighting without a weapon? It's been a while?"
The cat cried out and raised her paw to attack. The other one also jumped toward Kyle, but the duo froze when dread crept into their hearts. They stared at the human with dilated eyes as he ran toward them and punched one of them with all his strength.
Kyle opened his fists with a groan and waved his hand as he watched the inferno cat flung backward mid-air.
"Fear skill is good, but using my fists is a little painful."
"Let's finish this as quickly as possible."
He sighed and vanished again.
Sinon was in the middle of a fierce battle with an (S+)-Rank monster when suddenly, a furry body was flung towards him from the forest. His eyes widened in surprise, and without hesitation, he unfurled his wings and swiftly jumped back mid-air. The massive body crashed onto the monster he was fighting, causing it to cry out in pain.
The winged demi-human wiped his forehead with a sigh of relief and glanced at the inferno cat's body before turning his attention to the forest entrance, where Kyle stepped out with knitted brows. Sinon blinked, and the silver-haired man vanished from sight.
"Damn, did he use his fists to kill something that huge?"
The wings fluttered behind his back as he shook his head with a chuckle, not even daring to imagine how badly the inferno cat had been beaten up.
Kyle reappeared a few meters away from Carcel, who had been locked in combat with a group of (S+)-Rank winged hurricanes, a type of monster with two horns and colorful wings.
A cold wind swept through the air as blue flames materialized around Kyle. He burned his mana to make the flames spread across the sky, almost enveloping everything around Carcel and the winged hurricanes.
The crowd and the surrounding fighters watched as the flames grew colder with each passing second. Kyle stepped into the flames and paused beside Carcel. The two of them gazed at the panicked group of birds before the flames gathered, engulfing everything around them. Painful shrieks filled the air, but Carcel realized with a sharp breath that the flames didn't even touch him.
Carcel glanced at Kyle, who wore an emotionless expression that he hadn't seen in a while.
"Thanks, but where is Alec? I haven't seen him for a while."
Kyle blinked, and the flames scattered in all directions, leaving behind bright particles. His fingers brushed past the moving particles, and he felt a faint, cold yet soothing sensation. How strange, he had never felt cold before. He rubbed his fingers and pointed towards where the towering bat had been watching everything.
"I asked Alec and Bia to confront the monster lord, but Bia told me they were stopped in the middle by a group of monsters."
He looked back at Jian, who had been throwing down skills and casting spells left and right, doing everything he could to take out as many monsters as possible and protect as many people as he could.
Kyle frowned as he surveyed the battlefield. The situation didn't look good. He knew they could hold on for a while, but once their mana ran out, the border would fall. His gaze shifted to George and Retric, who had joined the fight despite their injuries, and then to Elder Han.
He thought for a few seconds and vanished once again, only to reappear beside Elder Han, who was fighting alongside a group of elderly men to clear out some monsters near the soldiers.
"Master?"
Elder Han quickly killed his opponent, his forehead glistening with sweat. He glanced at Kyle, breathing heavily.
"What's going on? Why are you here?"
Several old men around him immediately stopped the monsters in front of him when they saw Kyle, allowing him to talk with the silver-haired man who had displayed incredible strength since his arrival.
Kyle reached into his mind space and pulled out a book. In a matter of seconds, he flipped through many pages before stopping at a particular symbol. He tore out the page and handed it to Elder Han, who looked at him with confusion.
"I need your help. Draw this symbol on the border beneath the mages. The more symbols, the better. It doesn't matter where you draw them, I just need a large number. Gather as many people as possible who can draw symbols."
Elder Han stared at the page, which only had one symbol. He recognized it—it was used in one of the lower-ranked arrays that could increase someone's mana if they stood above it. However, the array consumed a lot of resources and could potentially harm the user's body if they were lower than (S)-
Rank, as the mana would forcefully fill their body within a few seconds.
The old man wanted to question Kyle, but he had already vanished. Elder Han let out a sigh and rubbed his temples, gazing at the symbol before grabbing one of the old men fighting in front of him with a serious expression.
"Come on, we've got a lot of work to do."
The duo floated towards the border, and Elder Han took out his communication crystal, asking George to send as many individuals as possible who could draw arrays.
George cursed because Han closed the communication crystal the moment he asked why. The Vice Principal stared at the crowd around him with frustration.
"How the hell am I supposed to gather people who can draw array symbols in the middle of this chaos?"
He punched a nearby monster before floating towards the area where students from various academies were fighting, searching for individuals who could draw array symbols.
