Option one was a bust. In that case, it was time to employ option two... the brute force method.Like its name suggested, option two simply meant Arran was going to use power to fight against power.Since softness did not work, then he would hit hard against hard to see who was tougher.The stronger opponent would come out on top!How was Arran going to achieve this?By bringing out his final trump card.Like all trump cards, Arran had only recently developed this power, and he had yet to master it. Before now Arran had also never used this power, so he didn’t know exactly how well it would fare against the Furor.There was basically no preparation time for Arran to use his trump card. As soon as there was enough distance between himself and the Furor, Arran immediately began.Suddenly, the air around Arran changed and, as if time had come to a stop, everything froze.The movement of air had stilled, and the subtle sounds that filled the hall disappeared. With Arran as the center, the

Flame Totem’s Phantom Dance...This was the name of Arran’s actualized concept. This was an ability that followed the concept of a wild flame not blowing out in the face of strong wind. It gave Arran the ability to see through the trajectories of the world and allowed him to maneuver between these trajectories. At the same time, it also embodies the fierceness of a furnace fire that grows hotter as more air is fed to it.The essence of Arran’s actualized concept is the fire training manual he had received when he first entered the academy, the Offering Dance Of The Flame Totem. This manual that had been created by a genius senior of Kingsman academy by imitating the natural talent of a race of primitive mortals was the key material on which this concept was modeled after.The Offering Dance Of The Flame Totem is an extraordinary training manual that not only contains methods to absorb energy used to refine the body but also comprehends the law of fire by imitating a dancing flame. The

The clapping died down and another kind of silence befell the hall.The beautiful girl started walking down toward the stage under the watch of everybody.By Brianna’s side, Sadie asked, “This person looks very important and you seem to know her. Who is she?”Before Brianna could answer, Vanna, who was almost invisible and had kept quiet all this time, spoke.“Princess Charmy. The youngest daughter of Treyarch, Ruler of the Aeth.”Hearing Vanna’s words, everybody turned to look at her. There was some surprise on their faces, as if they were just realizing that she was still here. If Vanna hadn’t said anything, she would probably still be forgotten.“Oh. Is that so?”Feeling awkward, Sadie didn’t know what to say to Vanna, so she immediately changed the topic.“What would a princess like her be doing here? Are you guys close? Did you invite her?”This time, it was Brianna who answered.“No, I didn’t invite her. Though we are acquainted, we are not exactly close that I would extend her

The lounge of the auction hall had been cleared of all guests, including the bartenders and various attendants. Only five people were present in the wide space.Arran was being stared at by four pairs of eyes. Not only were Eris and Charmy staring at him, but also the two people that accompanied them.At this moment, nobody was speaking, and an awkward silence hung in the air. Arran, being the center of attention, felt very uncomfortable. He was thinking of a way to break this awkward silence that felt very stifling to him.At this moment, the old man in the group, Councilman Taylor, spoke up first, breaking the silence and relieving the awkwardness in the lounge.“Would anybody like a drink?” Councilman Taylor asked.Without waiting for anybody to answer, Councilman Taylor had already made his back to the back of the bar and was looking through the stock of drinks available.Immediately, the middle-aged man who was the commander of the fleet escorting the group quickly hurried to Cou

With Arran’s confirmation, the silence in the lounge became pregnant with meaning. Everybody was lost in thought because what Arran said just now carried an important significance that needed to be contemplated.Eldencraid, the kingdom of the Aeolus.Just as Charmy had said, was the home of the Aeolus. The Aeolus were Aeth who were under the rule of the Air Ruler among the seven rulers, and Eldencraid was their kingdom.Collectively, the seven rulers were the highest authority of the entire Aeth civilization. Naturally, there can be no ruler without a kingdom to rule.Each of the seven rulers had their own kingdom, making for a total of seven kingdoms. The Aeolus kingdom was just one of the seven.Each of the seven kingdoms was located in sub-realms, pocket dimensions hidden inside the Etherium with the mother planet being the capital of each kingdom, which made up the center of the entire civilization.Unlike other traditional kingdoms, where the power of authority lay with the ruler
