Shaman was face palming, wondering why she let Elysia put condensed balls of fire around the mansion. In front of her was the destroyed mansion of the monkey and Elysia going through the rubble looking for anyone alive.
"If he was here, I think he would be dead." Elysia yelled out after finding only dead body parts crushed by rubble.
"We should get moving, it doesn't matter at this point." Shaman sighed, giving up the hope of keeping a low profile as this would have alerted all the other targets.
'They might think they won't get targeted, but if they have something to hide then there is a high chance they will be on high alert.' Shaman wanted to take the silent approach, but with each target it seems like they were getting louder and louder.
"Okaayyyyy~" Elysia dropped a piece of rubble she lifted up then ran to Shaman.
"Where to next?" Elysia asked with a big smile. Shaman shook her head in defeat as she could already see the next target getting similar treatment.
"Well, Clara is heading to a crocodile, so that leaves us with the eagle." Shaman saw that they were about half way through the list and hoped that at this rate they'll be able to kill them all tonight.
"Hope they can fly, so I can shoot them out of the sky." Elysia figured it would be good target practice .
"Let's find out, the quicker the better I guess." Shaman gave up and was going to let Elysia have her fun.
Elysia pulled out the map and took the lead to the next target.
Elysia began to run and Shaman followed, wondering what Elysia was going to do next.
*
On top of a platform of ice that looked over a mansion made out of wood, Elysia was charging up a massive fire arrow.
"This could not be any more perfect." Elysia had a massive smile while she was preparing the arrow.
Elysia held her bow which was coated in fire, making it appear much bigger than it was. The bow was almost double Elysia's size so it can hold the massive arrow she was creating. The ice platform she was on was created by Shaman and was constantly melting, forcing Shaman to keep putting ice under Elysia's feet.
Elysia funnelled her mana through her bow and into the arrow that was growing more violent and slightly bigger, till she was at her limit.
Letting go of the string, the Fire arrow flew towards the mansion at a high speed.
The fire arrow burnt everything that got near it and anything the fire touched was turned to ash. As the arrow got closer, the mansion was set ablaze even before the arrow made contact.
As the mansion began burning to dust, the cries of the half eagles rang out, yet they ended as abruptly as they began. Once the arrow reached the ground, a small explosion occurred, engulfing the entire place in flames and turning it to ash. Part of the road and almost the surrounding houses were caught in the blast.
Where the mansion once resided was now just a black burning pit. Meanwhile, the neighbours checking out the commotion through their windows were starting to freak out.
"What the hell is happening!"
"Somebody call the Empress or the guards!"
Chaos was ensuing throughout the different areas of the freya forest, creating a lot of confusion. Some people had put the pieces together and were celebrating, but many saw it as an attack on their turf.
The heat from the arrow was too much for Shaman to keep maintaining the platform, forcing her to let Elysia fall. Elysia lost her footing, and started falling to the ground without any chance to brace for it.
"Shiiit." Elysia did not think this through, but Shaman was ready to catch her.
Shaman jumped into the air just before Elysia was about to crash into the roof of the side building they were on. Shaman caught Elysia and landed back down on the roof, feeling a wave of pain go through her legs from the impact.
"Hehe, thank you darling~" Elysia was now in a princess carry, although a little awkward since Shaman was smaller in height.
"Shush Eli." Shaman's face was red from hearing the words darling.
"I have to say that was amazing, but I can only do that a few more times." Elysia having a much larger reserve of mana could produce a few more massive explosive arrows.
"We will quickly move to the other targets then. After that I will do something that can destroy the entire building." Shaman figured she could join in on the fun and come up with a way to destroy an entire mansion.
*
Moving on to the next few targets, Elysia used the rest of the arrows she could produce until she was unable to walk anymore.
While carrying Elysia, Shaman received a message from Clara, reporting that 3 more targets were killed, leaving 2 left.
Deciding to take one each, Shaman made her way to the final mansion.
Arriving at the mansion of a half bear, Shaman sat Elysia by the edge of a side building letting her watch.
"Goodluck~" Before Shaman moved away Elysia gave Shaman a quick kiss.
"Aha thank you." Shaman was a little thrown back by the sudden shift in mood lately, but she wasn't complaining.
Shaman jumped off the roof and approached the front gate of the mansion where a group of guards were waiting.
Shaman decided to practice some close combat as she rather enjoyed fighting with people.
"What are you doing here?" One of the guards yelled, suspicious of the fox girl dressed fully black.
The guards had given the signal as well, pulling out all their weapons, waiting on what the fox girl would do.
"Not much, I'm just here to destroy the entire mansion." Shaman summoned Kotetsu, pulling it out of its sheethe.
The guards expected that answer, as explosions had been raging throughout the freya forest and the guards were told they were going to be a target.
With no further words, the group of 4 guards charged at Shaman.
The first guard to swing had a pair of long claws for weapons, with which he attempted to strike Shaman in the chest.
Shaman redirected the hit to the side, forcing the guard to go past Shaman. The next guard went to follow up with his great sword swang straight down onto Shaman.
Shaman blocked the hit while creating an ice knife on her foot and kicking the half bear in the groin. The guard froze on the spot, trying to keep in his screams and started falling to the ground.
Another guard with a spear tried to stab Shaman in the back.
Shaman grabbed the bear that was falling, using him as a shield and making the guard stab him right through the heart.
"Tch." The guard with the spear quickly pulled away, jumping slightly back.
"Oops you killed your own friend~ how could you~." Shaman put one of her hands to her mouth acting shocked. This aggravated the guard with the spear and he charged at her again.
Shaman dashed forward facing the spear head on, but before getting in range, she flipped into the air and using her foot stomped down on the spear. Her foot pushed it to the ground, halting the movements of the guard.
Not giving any time to react, Shaman decapitated the bear while hopping off the spear. Unfortunately, just as she hopped off she was met with a mace to the face. Shaman was confused as she did not see the guard in her field of view when she turned.
Getting hit in the face with a blunt mace Shaman slid back on the floor, holding her nose.
"Fuck that hurt." Shaman did not take a lot of damage, but it still hurt a lot and blood came from her nose.
The bear that had hit Shaman was not actually there but used a portal of some kind. Shaman saw in the back that the bear's arm was missing, and yet it appeared right where Shaman was.
'He has space magic?' Shaman was amazed as it is an element she wanted for herself but was not sure if it was actually possible.
Shaman pulled up the list of nobles to make sure that it wasn't the target pretending to be a guard. Looking through the list she spotted an important note about the bear which confirmed to her that it was actually the target.
[Target uses spatial magic, this one is the most dangerous target so proceed with caution]
Shaman was in a little bit of disbelief as the most dangerous target was the last one on the list, realising it probably would have been smarter to go for them first.
'Damnit, I might need to get Clara over just to make sure this one is killed quickly.' Shaman was not confident that she could fight the bear with ease. Spatial magic had many applications and if she wasn't careful she could find herself getting killed in an instant.
'Let's play it safe and try to poke the bear with a stick first.' Shaman using [heal] fixed her nose before facing the remaining guard and the target.
