Chapter 135: Speechless

Meanwhile, Noel and Anna who had been standing on top of the tree to assess the situation.

"So, how are we going to get inside the city, Noel?" Anna asked.

"I'm not sure. What do you think you can do to enter?" Noel replied with another question.

Anna thought for a moment and said, "Duplication Rune. If I have enough time, I can use the Duplication Rune to duplicate our power up to eight. It means, our Spirit Ability would become eight for one moment."

"So, you know about rune and can use it too?"

"Hehe." Anna chuckled, refusing to give any explanation.

"Anyway, we have a horse to bring as well, so..."

"Yes, I understand. We need to enter through the gate. But the monster will enter together if they open the gate, so it'll be a bit of a dilemma." Anna nodded in understanding. "What do you think about running them over? With our superior firepower?"

"But will they open the gate? That's the most important question." Noel shook his head, thinking about the most important problem. If they didn't open the gate, they had to abandon their horse and leaped to the city wall.

"Fair enough. Still, there are around one to two hundred demons on this side... If we multiple it by four, there are around 500-700 demons."

"What's wrong with that multiplication?"

"Just using a more accurate range." Anna shrugged. "Anyway, most of them are only Low Level Demon, so that's good. Do you think we can kill them?"

"From the top of the wall, that is. It's impossible to kill them all from the outside unless you want to get swarmed by hundreds of demons in an instant." Noel thought for a moment and said, "Well, I think I know how to enter."

"Heh." Anna smirked. "Let's go then."

Noel nodded. "Prepare your Duplication Rune."

After Noel gave the instruction, he looked at the wall and found that someone was actually looking at them. Even if they didn't, they should be able to see what he was going to make.

Noel turned around and looked at the trees in their surrounding. Without hesitation, he chopped down the trees, making Anna panic.

"Wh-what are you doing?"

"Sending a message." Noel shrugged. He continued chopping a few trees then used his Strength Blessing Rune to allow him to carry this wood and even erect it.

He placed them to each other and even used his ice to freeze the joint so they stayed together, forming four words.

"Open"

That was the word that Noel wanted to convey by arranging the logs. And with the trunk's size, it should be easily visible from the top of the wall.

As expected, the one that was confused the most was none other than the holy knight captain. "What the heck? Open? What do you mean by open?"

"Opening the gate, I think." The Saintess added. "So, the hope has truly come."

"Saintess. There must be something wrong with this. I can see two people from here, but they are not even an adult. Are you going to pin your hope on them? There must be another group that will come here later."

The Saintess thought for a moment and still decided. "Open the gate."

"Saintess!"

"That's my decision. I'll use my barrier as soon as they enter so that you have enough time to close the gate again." The Saintess clenched her fists as if she believed they were the hope.

"Saintess!" The knight captain tried to persuade her. On the one hand, he didn't have any hope in these two kids. On the other hand, he didn't want the two kids to get involved in this problem, considering it was a dangerous situation that could endanger their lives.

"Unless they're a complete fool, they won't charge straight at the city surrounded by demons. So, that means they have enough confidence to handle these demons."

The knight captain gritted his teeth. He glanced to the side and realized the soldiers had also seen the message from afar.

"Ten people with me. We will open the gate. Carlos, you handle the timing."

"Yes, Sir!"

He took another look and found Noel and Anna had started moving. "What the heck? Are they so confident that they have come right away? Hurry up! If we're too late to open the gate, they're going to be swarmed by the demons."

The knight captain ended up moving down as quickly as possible despite his continuous rants.

Meanwhile, the soldiers, whose eyes were not as good as the captain, could see the appearance of their reinforcement.

"Children?"

"How old are they?"

"What's wrong with this?"

"Are these kids playing with their lives?"

There were so many doubts in the soldiers' minds, not believing that Noel and Anna could do anything.

However, the next thing they realized, those two children proved how wrong they could be.

Anna clapped her hand and formed a huge rune on top of her head.

"Where do you want to strike them?"

"Lining them up to the gate." Noel instructed.

"Got it." Anna clapped her hand again. Another eight runes appeared and Anna arranged four to each side.

When they almost reached the gate, they could see that the gate gradually opened. Noel and Anna could see several feet behind the gates.

"The gate is opening. We shall slow down and prepare to handle the demons before us." Anna warned Noel.

Noel's reply came in the form of action. He swung his sword and shot the Spiritual Energy into the rune.

Suddenly eight giant swords appeared next to the gate.

"!!!" Anna widened her eyes. 'I had seen this skill.'

But her thought was disrupted when Noel shouted, "Prepare an explosion to blow up their corpses!"

As soon as he gave the instruction, the eight giant swords fell down and pierced the demons that stood below it. None of them were spared no matter how tough their skin was.

But more importantly, the swords were lining up perfectly that they could block the demons' advance for a while, giving them a passage to enter the gate.

As long as they annihilated the demons in the passage, they could easily enter the city.

This was the time for Noel to show the result of his training. The Ancient Spirit Technique that he hadn't been able to use a few months ago.

Noel waved his sword and sent a beam of light toward the monster, but soon the beam bounced from one place to another, making a random and unpredictable attacks.

"Bouncing Spirit Slash."

It was a massacre. Without being able to move around, the demons fell one by one.

Anna also didn't want to lose by summoning the lightning sword that would result in a huge explosion to clear their path. "Sword D'Dantalian."

Before the explosion, behind the gate, the knight captain could finally see what was happening behind the gate since it had opened enough.

He immediately shouted to his squad. "Prepare to fi—"

Before he finished his words, an explosion occurred, destroying all the demons in their path and revealing the unscathed Noel and Anna.

*Boom!*

He couldn't even react as Noel and Anna smoothly entered the city and passed them.

And Noel was the first one to berate his late action by shouting, "Hurry up and close the gate! Do you want to let them in?"

"Fi... Fi... fight my ass. Close the gate!"
