All Chapters of Warrior of the Way: Chapter 251 - Chapter 260

Rhychard jerked his attention toward where he thought the loud crack of sound originated from. His hand tensing on the grip of his sword, the voices of the other Warriors in his mind, urging him to action. He tried to get a bearing on where Renny brought them, but nothing seemed even remotely familiar or even how she described the place to him. "If this is the Summerlands, it's not really what I expected," he said. Turning to Renny, he asked, "This is the Summerlands, right?""Alex!" Tansy screamed, leaping from the ground and throwing her arms around the lanky kid. "Oh my god, I thought you died." She held him away from her, running her gaze up and down his solid form. "I saw the demon snap your neck and watched as you hit the ground. How did you survive?"Rhychard watched as the young man's face fell. The male witch just stood there. "I didn't survive," he said, his voice holding a slight tremor. "Renny brought me with her when she brought the rest of you. I'm not sure why I'm not a

The witches each threw up a barrier to protect themselves against the blast while Rhychard drew the demon's power into his sword. Renny shielded herself as well, and the gnomes dropped into the ground. Only Kree bore the onslaught head-on, the magical blast sending him sprawling backward, smoke from his wound wafting up into the air around him.Rhychard screamed as he tried to make his way to the coshey, slinging his sword at Baltabek, sending the demon's power back at him. This time, the magic bolt struck the demon in the shoulder, spinning him around and dropping him to his knees. Rhychard turned and raced to Kree, running behind the others, using their battle to block his path. The witches kept shooting magic bolts at the other demons, hitting Kayla and Wanda in places that would slow them down, but not kill them. After seeing the demons and what they could handle, Rhychard wasn't sure if they would be able to kill them on their own, anyway. In the beginning, sending the demons to

Rhychard blocked another blast, sending it off to the side to explode into the ground. The gnomes fought from inside the ground, churning up the soil the demons stood upon and causing them to slip and lose their balance. Kree darted in all directions, drawing the demons' fire while he attempted to get close enough to bite one of them. The witches sent their power at the demons, Rose from behind and the others in front, doing their best to keep Baltabek and the others from focusing on any one person. They all did their best to bide Renny time to bring the other Warriors out of the sword, but Rhychard wasn't sure how much longer they could keep it up.The demons who possessed the witches spun, one sending a bolt of power at Rhychard's head and the other one sending one at his feet. He swung his sword, blocking the bolt to his head, but missing the one aimed at his feet. The magic snatched at his ankles, spinning him around and dragging him to the ground. His sword arm hit the ground, his

Karl stood there, still not sure what he should be doing or even what was actually happening. He saw what those demons did to downtown. He couldn't possibly stop one if it showed up now and took over Jayden's body. Glancing over at Famallumi, he wondered just how much power the elves possessed. Gormec seemed to always have his giant hammer nearby, and while Karl had seen its power before, was it enough to stop the demons? There were only five of them against a demon like the ones who killed a witch and almost defeated his brother, the Warrior. Karl didn't particularly care for his odds."How do you feel?" he asked Jayden, his hands over his chest."I'd feel better if you'd stop staring at me like I'm about to go off my meds," Jayden snapped."How about I go and fix us all some lemonade?" Jayden's mother suggested. "It'll give us something to do while we wait for the others.""Do we even know they're going to be here?" Gormec asked, leaning on the handle of his hammer. "It's been longer

"Mom! Dad. What are you doing here?" Rhychard just stood there, staring. He didn't need this right now."Your father thought I was crazy," Catherine Bartlett said. "He even made sure I didn't have any hidden wine bottles anywhere. Empty wine bottles, that is. I had to drag him here to see for himself.""You're alive," Rhychard's father said as he stood there and stared at Renny, his brows bunched in disbelief. "How is this even possible?"Rhychard sighed. "I've discovered just about anything is possible these days.""Hello, Mr. Bartlett," Renny said as she casually closed her purse, hiding the gnomes from sight for now. Catherine didn't handle them well last time, and Renny didn't know how Rhychard's father would react. "I'm sorry we didn't come over and tell you. We've just been…well, we've had our hands full."James Bartlett swooped in, wrapping his arms around Renny and giving her the tightest bear hug she ever had. "I can imagine you have," he told her, his voice filled with enthus
