The Arcadia Chronicles III: Wood Elf Quest

Whirlwind Lift

Third person's POV

Maykel and several other swordsmen heard what Sabrac just said after they saw the harpies creating the whirlwind. He swung his swords to remove the harpies' blood on it You heard that?! Let's go!!

The others only looked at Maykel as he leapt on a roof, shouting Bring it on then!!

I'm following him.

Me too, I'm helping him out!

Just then, several swordsmen are on their way where the harpies are creating their destructive attack.

Maykel sheathed his swords and he's about to fire an electrical attack when several harpies blocked the way Tch! One of the harpies hissed Not passing here, human! Maykel drew his swords Get out of the way!

The other swordsmen arrived and drew swords as well.

A girl asked What should we do now? Maykel answered sharply Isn't it obvious?! We'll break through them and kill those who are in the air! The harpies who blocked their way flapped their wings simultaneously and with force that they got blown off the roof!

They crashed on walls and stalls below, the unlucky ones squarely hit the open ground!

They winced and grunted in pain.

Maykel scrambled to his feet after taking a bite at an apple that his hand landed on. He saw the harpies looking down on them, clicking his tounge when he saw the swordsmen with him are down They got us with that wind attack! Several others who aren't severely hurt stood and faced their opponents.

A leader-like harpy said We'll own this place and make you humans suffer. Maykel replied sharply What the hell is wrong with you!? We're just living here!

Another swordsman added What have we done that we deserve to suffer?!

The harpy answered simply but with darkness coated on the words We want to rule this world and you mortals are a filth, this world needs to be cleansed from your kind. At this, Maykel could no longer hold his temper You crazy..! He ran towards and scaled the wall by running up on it then leaped to the harpy.

He's gonna get himself killed!

Come on, we have to back him up!

Maykel blindly headed for the harpy, not realizing that he's outnumbered for he went first but elemental attacks came flying towards the creatures and several swordsmen are now ready for a bloodbath! With his swords glowing sky-blue, he swung them towards the posing-leader harpy.

Which the creature blocked with its claws I'll make sure your kind will be gone right here, right now!! The harpy smirked Very well then, human!! It pushed Maykel away while he's still midair and attempted slashing his body You better be still, it'll make your death quicker! Maykel managed to parry its attack downwards I'll make you eat those words, you messed up creatures look more like filth than us! Then he flipped forward and did an axe kick to the harpy, directly hitting the head with his heel.

The creature gritted its teeth in pain - it grabbed him by the leg that hit it...

Maykel's eyes widened Oh crap!!

The harpy swung him around once... Hrraaghh! ...and threw him forcefully to the distance! It immediately chased after him with a burst of speed. Maykel hit a couple of chimneys before he came landing and rolling on a wide roof, which he immediately recovered by skidding to a halt in half crouch.
