Chapter 230: Evading

With his arrow about to hit, Lake moved to the side so the Demon Worshiper couldn't block him and the arrow at the same time. Like he expected they turned towards his arrow with the spell and it disappeared but he was able to land a soft punch into their side. Lake didn't go anywhere near as hard as he could because he had a skill that made unarmed strikes partially pass through armor.

Echoing Strikes (R) Lv.1

Unarmed attacks deal 30% damage when blocked.

He didn't want to actually hurt them because it would make them more wary of chasing after him. Turning Lake went towards the closest building and ran inside. He could feel the amount of people that could see him drop by 90% as soon as he went inside which was pretty good for just walking into a building but he wanted the number to drop even further.

He wanted the only people to see what he was about to do to be him and the person he was fighting. They would be dead so they wouldn't be telling anyone. After that he didn't really care about the conclusions that the people that had been watching up until now ran off and told to their superiors.

Jumping through a window out onto the street, Lake ran across it and into another building. With this stunt he felt the amount of people who were still paying attention drop even further. With this the only people who could still track him or see him had to have some kind of scouting skill he would find hard to get away from but it would happen eventually if he kept up the odd moves.

Hearing the sounds of fighting outside Donny got up onto the roof so he could look towards the fortress. Around an hour had passed since he had returned from getting a look at the fortress so he wasn't surprised the fight had kicked back off. Going back downstairs Donny said. "Start getting them up to the roof."

Snapping his eyes to the incoming spell Donny tilted them slightly to let the spell pass under them harmlessly. It didn't end there though right after the first one passed someone else yelled while pointing out a spell headed towards them. Donny just sped them up in response to this one since it was coming from the side.

"Another one." Donny took his attention from the fortress since he had found a place to land so he had already spotted this one when they had called it out. It was coming from the front so Donny had to actually lean them out of the way again. Ignoring the groans from the wounded Donny turned sharply again after the first spell passed them to dodge another spell.

It seemed they had gained the attention of the Demon Worshipers by now because the amount of spells that came in the next second outnumbered all the ones they had dodged up until now and it stayed like that even as he got close enough to the fortress that the spells they were dodging started to hit the fortress.

He guessed that made sense; it wasn't like it wasn't a win-win for the Demon Worshipers since they had been bombarding the fortress anyway. Getting them close enough to the flat part of the fortress that they were using to launch spells down at the Demon Worshipers to see the faces of the people Donny could tell they were confused but not hostile and that was all he needed to come in for a landing.

Lowering them as fast as he could while still giving the people in the way the time to move, Donny got them a few inches above the ground before he started dissipating the formation. He hadn't even gotten his foot onto the ground when people from the fortress came towards them with weapons up.

He had expected this so he just let them move in and grab him and the others seemed to understand this was a necessary act of returning to the fortress like this. It would be insane to think they wouldn't be suspected at all. He and the others were taken in a few different ways which he wasn't surprised by either.

If he was them he would want to separate them so they would be easier to deal with if something did end up happening. Once he was in a small room with just his guards someone walked in and asked. "Were you the one flying the formation you arrived on?" Donny knew it had been pretty obvious to anyone looking so he said. "Yes."

"Good, were you also the one who laid it?" Donny nodded before remembering he hadn't been the only one. "Me and one of the others named Fendis. He's wearing a green shirt and brown armor." After he said this the person left the room and returned with Fendis a few minutes later.

"Alright we've confirmed your identities as Fighters guild members." Donny was surprised at the speed but he guessed it made sense they had probably been on it before they had even finished landing. "We need you to come with us to help with the wall." Donny followed the man out while asking. "The wounded we brought with us?"

"The healer is making his rounds, don't worry." Hearing this Donny put it out of his mind and just paid attention to the rings they were passing. His father had always told him to pay attention to where you were no matter what in case you had to run and he had no delusions that this base was impenetrable.
