ALL NOVEL Chapter 154: Runes
"Solara buff Kail" Blake said his posture totally calm as they descended and though a frown climbed Kail's face at this, he stayed silent.
Nodding her head, Solara immediately had a staff appear in her hand. She held it with both her hands and soon a golden glow shot out from it and landed on Kail.
Though Kial was against being buffed, he let Solara's energy swim within him.
Being the one who created the thousands of clones that surrounded the group and were acting as a wall to the approaching demon, Kail was well able to sense when one of his nearby clones was destroyed, and not even waiting for the enemy to become visible he attacked.
Raising his hand up, Blake had a spear covered in lightning arcs appear in front of him and then some seconds later, when lines of fire had surrounded it, he waved his hand forward, watching as it tore its way through the clone in front of him and met his target who was just another clone away from him.
Controlling the flat gliding platform he had created, Kail steered the team away from the explosion which resounded through the sky, clicking his tongue as he sensed the still vibrant energy of his opponent even though he had been blown away.
"Seems I will be needing Solara" Kail muttered to the hearing of the team, and then he looked at Blake.
"Who will help you"
When Kail asked this question everyone took a glance at Blake and they stared at the woman some distance away from them, the best of them which was Kial only being able to look at the woman's figure for 30 seconds before looking away, a growl leaving his lips.
"How powerful is she" Kail asked.
From their position, the group could clearly feel the presence of the woman like she was standing beside them and they would have already turned around and fled if they didn't trust that Blake was no psychopath.
"Sixth order"
Immediately everyone took a deep breath, their feet uneasy.
"Master, this is very dangerous," Rehabab said, glancing at Ciara and looking away, respect and fear in her eyes.

"Solara will back up Kail as he faces off against Duke Ezriel, Rehabab and Naomi will both face Bernald, and I will handle Ciara."
Blake's words had a lot of words filling the mouth of the team, but before they could each make their thoughts known he continued speaking.
"Now, I'll give you my observation of them and you will use that in your battle."
When Blake had talked about giving his observation of their opponents everyone had thought he was going to give them some vague deductions but then he went giving them their strengths and weaknesses, even deducing the abilities they might have and before anyone in the team could question him, the gliding platform descended to the floor and he was walking towards his opponent.
With Ciara and Bernald standing side by side, Rehaba and Naomi followed behind Blake, who was calmly walking ahead, but soon after taking several steps they began trembling as they moved, their teeth tightly clenched and forehead covered in sweat.
Walking ahead Blake moved till he was within normal hearing range of Ciara and waved her.
'My teammates can't withstand your soul aura. Let's go someplace else so they attack Bernald."
Blake's mention of Hannah's husband's name, had Bernald focusing on Blake and giving him a once-over.
"Do I know you"
"No, but I know your wife," Blake said, "Surely you've seen her recently"
"No, I haven't" Bernald say, " Do you know where she might be."
"I don't, but the blood stain on your neck and shoulders says you should. I can even sense the strong holy aura that had been here not too long ago, it's intoxicating."
Blake turned from Bernald to face Ciara but he discovered that the woman's eyes had become focused on the people behind him.
"Are you Rehabab"
"No"
"Who are you"
"You seemed quite all-knowing when I was walking towards you, why don't you figure it out."
"Though Ciara and Bernald kept up a calm composure, Blake could tell that they both recognized all if not most of the members of his team and they were blown back by the absurdity of who they were.
Blake's reply to Ciara's questioning of his identity irked the woman, but she stayed silent and rather than using words to convey her intentions, she used actions.
With a wave of her hands, runes rose up from the ground coiling around Ciara and then shooting toward Blake with blinding speed.
The runes moved so fast that in the blink of an eye, they had wrapped around Blake and then without delay pulled him so that he was standing right in front of Ciara.
"You haven't answered my question," Ciara said her tail rising from behind her and rubbing Blake's cheek, its pointy end teasing his skin.
"You haven't done what I said," Blake said nonchalantly, his attitude greatly surprising Ciara.
"What exactly has you so confident that you can face me, I could crush you like a bug," Ciara said putting her words into practice as the runes lifted Blake up till his feet left the ground and began constricting around him.
For the people watching them, it was an iconic sight, seeing the small and curvy woman suppressing the bigger Blake, but just when they all began thinking Blake had bitten off more than he could chew, there was an eruption of mana from him.
"Bang"
The eruption of Blake's mana led to the violent destruction of the runes that had bound him and just as Ciara took a step back in shock and pain from the backlash of having her runes destroyed, Blake landed on the ground and without hesitation slapped Ciara with the back of his hand, his hit sending the woman shooting through the air and away.
Just as Blake, removed Ciara from the scene, a magnificent, dark blue lightning dragon appeared by his side and crashed into him volts of electricity consuming his position.
