This creature was very familiar to him, and it was looking back at him with an amused expression on its face which couldn’t be concealed even if it was hiding behind a tree.
“E-Everyone! Run!” Ethan shouted before pointing behind the Dire Bear, making the Beast stop its charge. “It’s Koko!”
The students that had surrounded him all froze before looking in the direction that Ethan was pointing at. There, they saw a White Gorilla that stood around four meters tall.
The Gorilla smirked at the students before walking in their direction.
“Boo!” Koko said with a devilish smile on its primate face.
Now that its cover was blown, it decided to show itself and have some fun.
“Run!” the chubby teenager shouted before running at full speed back to the academy.
When it came to knowledge about Magical Creatures living in the Great Eagle Forest, there was no one more knowledgeable about them than the members of Jaeger Manor.
Since they specialized in everything related to Common Animals, Magical Creatures, and Monsters, all of them were aware of the Three Overlords of the Great Eagle Forest that must be avoided at all costs!
The other students also snapped out of their daze and decided to run as well.
But due to the fear that overwhelmed their senses, some stumbled on the ground, while others were unable to even start running because they were frozen in fear. The two girls tried to scream, but no sound came out of their lips.
It was as if they had been silenced by the Silentium Spell, preventing them from making any noise.
“Please don’t eat me!” one of the boys that had stumbled and unable to get up pleaded. “I don’t taste that good.”
“Please don’t kill me!” another boy shouted. “I still haven’t kissed a girl. I don’t want to die yet!”
The other students also begged, and pleaded to be spared, but their voices were just like music to Koko’s ears, who moved with even strides until he reached the clearing.
Sensing that their lives were about to end, the two girls hugged each other and cried.
The boys, on the other hand, watched in horror as the White Gorilla moved towards the two girls with a look of hunger on its face.
“Koko, Stop!” 𝐎𝗏𝐞𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t
Ethan shouted as he stood between the White Gorilla and the two girls that had already collapsed on the ground, while hugging each other.
“My, if it isn’t Ethan?” Koko smiled evilly. “Fancy meeting you here. Would you like to join me for an afternoon snack?”
“If you want a snack, I’ll go and get it from the Academy’s kitchen,” Ethan replied. “Don’t harm the students of the academy.”
“Oh, please drop the heroic act, Ethan.” Koko chuckled. “Why do you care about the lives of these people? They tried to harm you a while ago, yet you’re still trying to protect them? I’m very worried about your future.”
The White Gorilla then lowered its head before whispering something in Ethan’s ear.
“What I hate the most are martyrs,” Koko replied. “They are all stupid people. Also, they are the first ones to… die!”
Without any warning, the White Gorilla pushed Ethan, sending him flying several meters away before crashing on the ground.
Now that the nuisance was out of the way, Koko smiled down at the two girls, who had started to pee on themselves out of fear.
“Now where was I?” Koko said. “Ah, yes, I am here to introduce myself. I am Koko, and no, I am not interested in knowing the names of my snacks. Well then, thank you for the meal.”
Suddenly, something small, and round hit the side of Koko’s face, which the latter caught with his hand.
“A ball?” Koko frowned after seeing the coin-sized red ball that Ethan threw to his face.
A second later, the red ball exploded at point blank range, making Koko take a few steps back.
Seeing that his surprise attack worked, Ethan threw the other ball towards the sky, where it exploded, and sent out a red smoke, signaling his Head Prefect that something troublesome had happened in the Great Eagle Forest.
“Ethan, Ethan, my dear Ethan…,” Koko said as it waved the red smoke away from his body. “Do not test my patience, little friend. Even someone as kind and benevolent as me can get angry.”
“If you really are kind and benevolent, you won’t harm the students of the academy,” Ethan replied.
“Unfortunately, I am only able to become kind and benevolent on a full stomach.” Koko smirked. “When I’m hungry, it is hard to be kind… and benevolent.”
Ethan had a feeling that Koko wouldn’t harm him, but he just couldn’t stand by and let the other students of the academy get hurt.
Even if they were the people that tried to teach him a lesson due to a misunderstanding about Lily.
As if reacting to his feelings, the Sea God’s Trident in his hand started to emit a faint heat that caught Ethan by surprise.
A moment later, he felt his body suddenly become strong.
Much stronger when he was under the influence of the spell, Amplifico.
Although he was unsure of what was happening to him, he believed that he was under the effects of the spell, Magna Amplifico.
No, it was a stronger version of the spell. He could feel his body’s performance being boosted.
Another thing he noticed was that he had become more clear-headed.
Even though he was afraid to face Koko’s anger, he was still able to think properly and not too affected by the fear he was feeling.
‘Is this the effect of the Sea God’s Trident?’ Ethan thought as he looked at the weapon in his hand. ‘Amazing!’
Koko ignored the two ladies and ran in Ethan’s direction. He intended to knock out the teenage boy first before he dealt with the rest of the students who were still paralyzed due to fear.
“Come!” Ethan shouted as he held the trident in his hand, whose handle extended until it became a true Trident.
Koko sneered before smashing the ground with both hands, sending rocks and dirt flying towards the handsome teenager in front of him, who was staring back at him with a determined look on his face.
