When the warmth inside Pier's body subsided, he opened his eyes and stared at the ring on his right finger.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Alerted once more with the nearing thumping sounds, he turned his head quickly to where he had seen the burning corpses were.
There, lying on the large bone fangs of the corpses were Gideon and Ciaran.
They were in a mess.
Gideon's armor had so many dents that Pier was thinking the knight had suffered some damage inside his body as well considering the armor's state. His sword was nowhere to be found and his hand was titled in a displeasing angle.
Ciaran on the other hand was just as worse as Gideon. The vampire prince's cloak was shredded to pieces and blood was pouring out of his mouth. A part of his arm had turned black as well.
"Probably from the overuse of his magic," Pier commented as he started to approach the burning beasts.
Step.
Step.
Step.
Every step he took, the burning bone monsters also backed off.
'The phoenix was the cause of all of these,' He thought as he pointed his hand at the beasts.
"Bring them to me," One phrase was enough for the burning beasts to follow his words and they started to approach him slowly. Their giant bodies did not make any thumping noises around Pier as if they were afraid to cause him distress or the other way around.
When they were in front of Pier, one could easily see the comparison between the size of the bone monsters and the human who was now regarded as the Phoenix's guardian.
'I don't have any clue what that creature's power is but it sure is scary enough to control burning skeletons like these,' He thought as he watched the creatures who were towering over him.
"Down."
And just as he intended his command were to be, the flaming bone monsters started to lower themselves on the ground just right in front of him.
Crack~
Crack~
Each movement made the bones of the monsters crack and it gave Pier quite the shivers.
When they were fully down, Pier saw the close-up scene of the two who were left to fend the monsters off while he went to go and kill the remaining problem, which was the stone.
He first got his knight off of the monster's fangs followed by Ciaran.
He laid them side by side and Pier observed their situation.
He first checked the knight's pulse.
'It's almost non-existent,' He then proceeded to feel the pulse on the vampire prince.
He did not panic, he did not hurry.
Pier was calm as he inspected both of the unconscious individual's states.
It was the same for Ciaran.
He was sweating so much, his pale skin was even paler, and his breath was rapid.
'Signs of hypovolemic shock due to blood loss is happening,' He thought.
He then proceeded to place both of his hands on each person lying in front of him.
