Large thrusters sent Mugen back down but unknowingly to him they also sent a mild shockwave of wind blasting against the wyvern who was slightly set off balance and thus prevented from immediately giving chase, instead forcing it to recuperate by balancing itself in from of a barrel-roll after which the fierce beast dove down towards the Genin. Yet before it was halfway through its descend, the unfortunate creature barely noticed an oncoming line of cutting winds that tore straight through the center of its head and all of its body, leaving two large body-halves to crash down on the ground on either side of Mugen.

At that moment of one of their brethren dying, the main body of the swarm began screeching so loud that it’d actually be painful to the ears, making it hard to hear anything else going on. They then started circling around in the sky, a threatening display.

Meanwhile…

The formation of five Wyverns rushing at Keldran in V-formation found themselves shocked as the leading Wyvern dug its talons into a log rather than flesh and bone before suddenly a massive sword ruptured through its dense beak and, added with the Wyverns forward momentum, carved through the entirety of its body so that both halves would fall down sliding on the ground behind Keldran who now stood, surrounded by blood in an epic pose, amidst the four wyverns that all came to a halt and landed on the ground.

All of these four wyverns were walking on all fours as they circled around Keldran with about 2 yards between each of them and the swordsman. Every now and then one of them carefully snapped out with a bite but they’d back pre-emptively each time as they warily eyed Keldran’s claymore and seemed threatened by it.

One of them, however, seemed to have overcome whatever had restrained its efforts and stretched out its long neck to aim and take a bite out of Keldran’s shoulder. Seeing the moment of opportunity, another attempted to stab the sharp tip of its tail through Keldran’s back from a blindspot as the swordsman would be distracted with the former. The other two continued to carefully watch as they seemed to be on the lookout for an opening.



However…

As Keldran was about to use the body replacement technique and begin fighting, Mugen would have his own things to worry starting with a very unluckily timed plume of ash that shot from the ground and drove the Jugo back from his position.

But with misfortune came a stroke of luck Mugen would see an opening here if he was paying attention.

One by one, three Wyverns had flown down from the circular formation in the sky and dived down to the ground in a V-formation. From what it looked like, they were heading down towards Keldran who was already surrounded. If they made it down they’d not only block off Keldran’s only route of escape, it’d also mean that Keldran would be attacked from all sides by these ferocious beasts. This was Mugen’s time to have his brothers back.

If Mugen would intercept the Wyverns, they’d turn their focus onto him immediately and if they were in mid-air then they’d break from their formation to dodge a possible incoming attack or Mugen trying to jump onto one of them, before coming back together to continuously try to claw the boy and spike him with their tails in an intense aerial assault; remaining in close combat from this point on. When one wasn’t attacking, the other was, meaning the combat would be far more high paced and intense than the calculated and perhaps even spiritual battle happening down below.
