Burglar System: Stealing Ancient Dragon God Bloodline from the Very Start

Chapter 13: The Terrifying Vengeful Wraith, The One Who Chose to Stay Behind

"Woo!"

The Ice-field Snow Wolf let out a howl and overthrew its opponent. Then, it turned around and jumped onto the roof of the carriage. It looked around majestically, with its snow-white fur fluttering in the wind.

"It's the Vengeful Wraith!" George looked around nervously.

Martin's hand trembled when he heard this, and he said in horror, "Vengeful Wraiths? Are you sure?"

George nodded.

William recalled the information in the Monster Atlas. There were records of Vengeful Wraiths in it. It seemed to be a kind of monster that was born from human corpses, that had intelligence comparable to that of humans. They liked to gather in groups.

A single Vengeful Wraith was not a threat to the two teachers of the Supernal Rank. However, even the peak of the Supernal Rank could only run away if there were a large number of them.

And looking at the green lights in the forest, there were quite a number of them.

It was already difficult for them to protect their safety under such circumstances, not to mention protecting the four students who had just awakened their Endowed Supernatural Ability.

Martin waved his horsewhip to ride the carriage while thinking of a solution. There was only one way to escape from the encirclement. That was for him and George to abandon the students and rush to the military camp at full speed to seek help. They might be able to save one or two students if they were fast enough.

That was the best way to avoid the annihilation of the entire army.

"Geo..."

Martin was about to tell George about that solution.

George had already opened his mouth and said anxiously, "Martin! You take the students and escape. I'll cover for you. These Vengeful Wraiths are all intelligent. They won't just watch us leave since they have already targeted us."

Martin was expressionless. That was also a solution, but he didn't say it because he was afraid that George would want him to stay. Now that George was willing to take the initiative to stay behind to cover for them, he didn't have to bear the name of abandoning the students.

"George, be careful." Martin put on a depressed expression, he said, "Although the two of us didn't get along, I admire you. Moreover, I also think that you're a good teacher. I should learn from you. Don't worry. I'll escort them to a safe place."

What he meant was that he wouldn't stay with George to cover for the students.

George could understand Martin's meaning and his choice.

However, his choice was also firm. The academy sent teachers to lead the students. Not only was it to lead the way, but it was also to protect the students. Since they were his students, he had to bring them back the way he brought them out.

"Mr. George..."

Shirley looked at teacher George with pity in her eyes.

Not only her, even Martin's students, Sam and Jones, were deeply moved.

A green light fell from the sky and hit the roof of the speeding carriage at that moment. It struggled with the Ice Field Snow Wolf, and one of its sharp nails, pierced into the roof of the carriage in front of Sam. It gave off an odor that would make them drowsy with the blood of the Ice Field Snow Wolf on it.

"Ah!" Sam was so scared that he screamed. A chill rose from his spine, and he was covered in a cold sweat.

"It's poisonous! Everyone, hold your breath!" George jumped onto the roof of the carriage and kicked the green Vengeful Wraith off.

"You guys leave first!"

Mr. George said with a determined tone. The moment before he jumped off the carriage, he looked back at Shirley and William.

Many thoughts arose in his mind.

He did not have to worry about Shirley. Her Endowed Supernatural Ability was well awakened, and her family background was also good.

On the other hand, William was an orphan. He didn't have any family, and he had awakened the F-Class Bloodline Endowed Supernatural Ability, which was the lowest level. What kind of life would he have in the future?

Thoughts rose in George's mind. He wasn't worried about his ending. He was surrounded by numerous Vengeful Wraith after he left the carriage. Even if he were at the peak of Supernal Rank, he would only die.

However, he dared to do so because there were people he wanted to protect. His students were his support.

Time flew by, and George landed on the ground. The Ice Field Snow Wolf was beside him, and countless Vengeful Wraith jumped out of the forest.

The carriage was escaping quickly.

Sam was panting heavily in the carriage.

"I almost died just now!"

Sam screamed. The threat of death was something big to a young boy. It scared the hell out of him.

Shirley and Jones ignored him and looked around vigilantly.

Martin felt that his students were too embarrassing, he said while waving the horsewhip, "These Vengeful Wraith are intelligent. They know what to do to mess us up. That's why they sneaked up on us and spied in the woods. I've long found that there was Vengeful Wraith staring at us since we entered the woods. This kind of psychological pressure is hard to bear. Plus, we almost got stabbed. Anyone would be scared. If it were William, he would probably pee in his pants."

He deliberately embarrassed William to ease the embarrassment of his student, trying to make William feel more embarrassed.

Sam felt much better after listening to him. He was ready to mock William to save his image.

But when he turned his head, he found that William was not in his seat.

"Eh? Where is William?"

As Sam spoke, he pulled open the curtain of the carriage and glanced inside, but he did not see William.

Martin frowned and shouted unhappily, "What a troublemaker!"

George had already stayed behind to cover them, but he still lost a student. That made it difficult for him to explain.

Would the people of the academy think that he had abandoned his student?

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became.

Shirley stood up and looked back over the roof of the carriage.

There were two figures surrounded by green lights.

"He's there," Shirley said and pointed at the encirclement of the Vengeful Wraith.

Sam stood up and saw that William had rushed back to the trap. He cursed, "Is he crazy? He's courting death!"

Martin was stunned. Then he whipped the horse's butt and sped up without saying a word.

No one suggested going back to save him. He was seeking his death. There was no need to put everyone at risk.

George turned around and immediately scolded angrily upon hearing the sound of footsteps, "What are you doing here! Run!"

He did not expect that the usually obedient and smart student would be so impulsive and come to cause trouble in such a situation.

Although he was a little touched, what could one more person who had just awakened his Endowed Supernatural Ability do? He would be just an additional food for the Vengeful Wraith.

"What a silly boy!"

George looked at the Vengeful Wraith's tight encirclement and scolded him in disappointment. He walked in front of William and protected him behind him.

"I've seen Vengeful Wraith in the Monster Atlas. This kind of monster that was born from human corpses has superior intelligence and looks similar to humans. It also likes to attack people and eat their organs and faces. However, the book did not introduce the weaknesses of this kind of monster. Do you know their weakness, Mr. George?"

William said in a calm tone.

That gave George the illusion that both of them were not surrounded by Vengeful Wraith, but in the classroom, and William had just asked a question.
