Chapter 62 The race from the west part 2

Lieg shouted "Esma!" Calm but serious, while rubbing his left eye brow; as if to ward off a headache.

"So I'm assuming you're done with that cool guy act" he heard a gentle voice echoed in the slimes surrounding him.

"We have bigger issues to deal with, care to explain the volume of this creeping fear" Lieg asked showing his annoyance on his face, with narrowing eyes.

Pointing his finger on the ground, bubbling out of the slime Esma took on the form of a big golden yellow, orange coloured blend fur beast akin to a mongoose, with a long feather like pointed ears, flowing to her back, and beautiful heterochromia coloured eyes.

Yellowish green to the left in a right dark red, with two tails dripping with slimes; as she replied "To be honest with you, even I'm surprised at the amount of Mana reserve that was underground, I was just planning on making around a hundred but with a surge of Mana. I was unable to control the, absorption multiplication".

"That's interesting these mountain range does connect to one of Sizlion ridgevein, but I wasn't expecting the land to be so potent. No wonder it's rich in Mana crystals, it's primed for mining from both kingdoms" Lieg concluded.

Esma rolling herself in the slime to get comfortable laying on her tail, continued "So what exactly are you going to do, most of the slimes are going over to the west as you requested. But I didn't see the point of going over to the rocky cave area, why not to the east where there's more forestry?".

While placing his right hand on the ground,

"Well that's easy I wasn't looking for trees, or any animal that lives in the forest. No… what I'm looking for I'll definitely find on the west side" Lieg commented then pointed out his left hand in front of him, to the west "Let's go with some poison alchemy".

While this conversation was going on, we check back on Obi group to see what's going on there.

With the carriage clocking full speed, down the pathway everyone was in the state of panic. Has the only thing that they could see outside the carriage, was the viscous translucent slime running over their heads; only being block by a single Stone roof overhead. Obi with his hands still in the walls of the mountain, grinding against the stones persistently to keep the spell going had already broken two fingers, quickly running low on Mana to the point of his nose bleeding from overusing two types. His holy and his bloodline magic.

"We're all going to die",

"Why don't one of you guys go help him out there",

"Don't be stupid we weren't blessed with magic",

"I can hear the rock from above crumbling on top of the roof" the villagers argued with one another.

But what they were saying was true the stone Roof that Obi made was slowly crumbling due to his Mana being run dry.

(Shit, shit, shit, at this rate she'll have to use a holy barrier but without coming off the path it'll be pointless if we're engulf, where the hell are you old man).

But as that thought had came to mind Obi was completely distracted, just for a few seconds but within those few seconds his arm that was deep within the wall; which he had focus his holy armor, embedded into the wall of the mountain hit a bedrock.

(Sfx Snap!!)

"Aaaaaa!!!" Obi screamed has hitting the solid rock broke the remaining fingers, snapping his wrist causing his hand to come out off the wall flailing around. And the stone roof spell, which was being kept up had immediately started to crumble even faster.

(Oh no)

Has everyone looked out see him falling back into the carriage, immediately holding Elika in his arms assuming these are the last moments he had with his wife. The stone roof over her head completely crumbled into nothing as flowing slime slowly splashed on the carriage. Elika stretching out her arms between the gap Obi had left, from holding her tight to cast her spell,

"Not yet!!" She heard from outside.

(Sfx Rooaring splashh)

As within the side of the wall bursted out a geyser of water hitting the carriage off the path into the air,

"Now!" The voice shouted.

"Éclat de nettoyage: mode barrier" holy Mana envelop the carriage, bursting from her outwards blasting away all the Slime covering the carriage with the help of the water washing them away.

Now with the carriage stuck in the middle of the air being shooted from the side by the force of the water, spinning mid-air they could see through the wet curtain Raga splashing out of the water; blade still in his mouth as he grabs on the open wall which had been sprayed with water taking off the slime. After the force of the blast, the slime that had risen was now slowly dropping down, Raga taking this as an opportunity while holding on with his right arm on the wall took the blade out of his mouth with the left and stabbed it into the wall in front of him.

"Aaraauee!" His face all veined up, left arm swelling with muscle, as if he's using every ounce of strength in had left in his body.
