Chapter XXITien stared out at the horizon, deep in thoughts. "Jing. There is a town over there. Do you see it?"
Jing replied, clearly into Tien's mind.
"Yea. You are tired after the long flight, you should get some rest."
An hour later at the town's inn, Jing laid on the bed in her elf form, falling asleep immediately. Tien left his baggage on the table and made his way out of the inn, exploring the city.
It has been one and a half years since I last stepped into a human city. Tien thought to himself, looking at the shop selling their wares on the busy streets. The city was huge, like a capital. Tien wasn't sure, he had been with elves for too long. All of a sudden, a huge earthquake shook the city, a huge explosion erupted from the middle. From the explosion, something huge surfaced, towering over the city blocks.
"Something has escaped from the Clan dungeons!" A civillian shouted beside Tien.
Around 30 men in white robes appeared around the monster, spells ready. They fired the spells however, the spells only bounced off its hard hide. The smoke cleared and the monster could be seen properly. It was a behemoth, and a powerful one at that. Humanoid, and destructively powerful. Not to mention their hides have magic resistance.
Tien felt a powerful aura appear there. Searching for the source, he saw a female mage robed in white flowy material. Her staff was magnificent, glowing in power. She whisper a quick spell and fire a bolt of magic towards the behemoth. The impact knocked the behemoth back a little, causing some damage. The angry behemoth immediately threw a punch at her.
She blocked the impact with a powerful shield spell however. It was cracking from the power of the behemoth.
"You seems to be in a need of a little assistance."
