Conquering His Cold Heart-Chapter 447 - : The Furano battlefield (4)

Douglas sat on the cold hard floor dyed red from his and the blood of those who had been fighting here over the past several weeks. His two arms were broken and limply hanging at his sides while his two legs had been pulverised by the fists of the leading rindar who at this very moment was licking his lips and drooling onto Douglas's face, inspiring an instinctual fear within him.

He could hear the sounds of fierce battle behind him as well as the desperate shouts of Ryuu, Bastion and the majors of the frost wolf battalion as they tried to reach his side, but he knew deep in his heart that they wouldn't make it. This rindar wouldn't allow such a thing but he would certainly leave them a glimmer of hope before viciously quashing it.

A sadistic creature that got off on misery and pain.

Douglas glared fiercely toward his attacker refusing to show him even the slightest bit of fear.

"Hmph how boring." The rindar was displeased with Douglas's expression truly hoping for a more primal reaction, well you can't get everything you want.

He smiled evilly after briefly glancing towards Bastion, the two majors and then to Ryuu making sure each of them would have a good view of what was about to happen. Their expressions would have to be enough.

The rindar licked his lips before reaching for Douglas's skull, planning to crush the bones and peel away his skin, a gruesome and very painful death. He wondered if he'd keep the same determined expression throughout such torture oh just the thought was enough to make him feel all bubbly inside.

Suddenly however a loud bang could be heard from the west before the voice of a young man followed.

"[Wyvern's maw]" Frost who was riding Kiba shot from the tiger's back with his glaive in hand and activated his most powerful skill. Summoning the head of a wyvern and launching it towards the rindar's outstretched arm.

Frost's sudden entrance caught everyone by surprise the rindars included.

The leading rindar stopped reaching for Douglas and tried to avoid the wyvern but the head followed his retreat and bit down hard on his scale covered arm. Its teeth sunk in deep drawing blood and refused to let go causing the rindar to wince in pain before smashing his arm and the wyvern against the floor until the energy formed lifeform dispelled.

Frost who had leaped ahead to add to the strength of his swing landed back on Kiba's back with deft flip of his body and activated another skill, one that he hadn't shown off yet, one that relied on him having Kiba by his side.

"[Hammering beast's charge]" He roared the name of the final advanced level skill he learned the moment he achieved advanced glaive mastery. A skill that required him to be riding a mount, a combined skill that would fuse their strengths.

Yellow energy started to float around Kiba while blue energy appeared around Frost. These two energies swirled around one another, combing into a green tint that covered the two of them greatly increasing their momentum and charging force.

The dungeon core and glacial winged tiger fused as one entity with Frost's glaive acting as the focal point they charged at the rindar with intense ferocity.

Boooooooooommmmmmmm!!!!!!

An ungodly sonic boom rattled the air at the point of contact. Plumes of dirt, blood and dust obscured the area for a couple seconds causing the observers to tremble with worry.

Douglas, who was in a critical state, was forced to close his eyes from the explosion of air but when he opened them again he saw the wide back of a young man riding atop a winged tiger in an imposing manner.

This young man, Frost turned around and smiled gently towards him before speaking.

"I'm guessing I'm not too late right?" He asked in a teasing manner.

Douglas's lips twitched as he struggled to hold back a retort.

"No I think you're right on time Frost hehehehehe." He laughed out as a great sense of relief filled him before he ultimately fell unconscious.

Frost frowned and quickly dismounted from Kiba before giving out an order.

"Kiba get him out of here."

"Rooooaarrrrr!" Kiba roared in protest not wanting to leave Frost alone especially against that thing they charged into.

"Go now, that's an order!" Frost shouted before slashing out with his glaive.

Bang!!!

His glaive met with the fists of the leading rindar who sported a furious expression. He hated having his prey taken away from him most of all.

"Go now Kiba I'll be fine!" He shouted again as he parried punch after punch, the ground under his feet shifting at every contact, there was so much weight behind them. Thankfully it seemed as though his and Kiba's charge did some damage and made the rindar wary of him.

Kiba looked on with reluctance before acquiescing to Frost's order. He turned around and grabbed Douglas's clothes with his teeth before gently tossing him onto his back.

He looked back at Frost and the rindar before taking flight towards the northern wall where safety was guaranteed.

"No!!!!!!" The rindar roared out in protest doing his best to push Frost away and leap up after Kiba and Douglas. Reaching out with his back arms in attempt to grasp Kiba hind legs and drag him back to the ground.

"Oh you can forget about laying another hand on the Viscount you damn monster!" From where Kiba rose into the air a muscular man wreathed in turbulent red mana crashed down, smashing away the rindar's back arms and shattering more than a few of its hard scales.

The muscular man landed beside Frost after knocking back the rindar and took his form in with an inspecting gaze.

"You must be that Frost I've been hearing so much about….you're a lot stronger than I was told." Hamon the colonel and commander for this operation had joined the fray and thanks to Frost his entry wasn't too late.

Frost looked up at this man who was easily 2 and half metres tall and chock full of muscle.

"I am and you must colonel Hamon the one leading the frost wolf battalion here in Furano." Frost replied back with a glint in his eyes.

'Wasn't he a wizard of some kind?' He remembered what Leo, Douglas and Ryuu had told him in regards to this colonel Hamon. A magic user that even surpassed Ryuu.

"Hehehehehe that's correct lad, now how about we show this rindar here the ropes, what do you say?" Hamon cracked his knuckles as he laughed and prepared for a close combat slugfest with the 5 metre tall monster.

"Elders first." Frost gestured with his hand for Hamon to take first crack, curious to see how this fabled colonel fought.

"Hehehehe courteous as well as courageous I can see why Cassandra and Douglas like you. Alright then let me show you how you deal with these riff raff." Hamon proceeded to smash his fists together covering them in a dense amount of mana.

Hamon was a very unique type of wizard, a close combat specialist that used his body as his weapon of choice. The results were similar to high level chakra but was in fact a range of enhancement and defensive spells that he placed on his body.

With a self-styled martial art Hamon could coat himself in different types of mana depending on the moves he used making him a very deadly foe on the battlefield. He wasn't just a capable strategist but an absolute tank in battle, one of the few people who could actually go toe to toe with monsters with his bare hands.

The rindar who was struck back by his heavy mana punch shook his back arms that had become numbed from the blow. He eyed Hamon with no small amount of fear. He and the other B-ranks didn't push deep into the frontlines for one specific reason, Hamon.

All of them felt that this human was stronger than each of them even by himself, an upper perhaps even peak B-rank fighter. The very last person the rindar wished to be faced up against.

He looked at Hamon and then towards his brother and briefly at the state of the current battlefield before clicking his tongue and putting up his dukes. He had no choice he needed to fight Hamon and make it passed him, given that he was the commander he'd likely not chase too far.

His pride was also affecting his judgement. A mere human walked up to him armed with just his body, similar to his fighting style an offense that he struggled to overcome. How could a human's body really go toe to toe with that of a rindar's.

Frost covered himself in a dense level of ice armour and prepared his glaive, looking for an opportunities to attack but leaving the main approach to Hamon. This wasn't really a foe Frost could safely face off against alone and he never intended to.

If Douglas wasn't in desperate need of his help and he hadn't seen Hamon on the move he would have left with Kiba. But with Hamon here taking the vanguard position this 5 metre tall rindar that put Douglas in such a predicament didn't seem that scary.
