The location was the deck of the Dragonheart.

"Finally!"

Ace throws his hands into the sky.

"We can get back to our adventures."

"For once, I actually don't mind going into a crypt. It's much better than fighting a war."

"What's our destination, Sir Ace? I'll input the coordinates into the Ark's navigational system."

"Let's see..." Ace pulls out a paper that had the list containing the locations of the twelve zodiac crypts.

"Our next destination is a place right outside of Kirivard. We're going to Gr-"

Before he could finish.

"Grim Forest. Also known as the forest of eternal night."

Maggie finished for him as they all looked at her.

"What? I memorized all the locations of the twelve zodiac crypts."

She went on to show them a page on her journal that had a list identical to the one Ace was carrying.

Ace laughs this off as he nods.

"That's right, Grim Forest is our next stop!"

Conroy tugs at the coat of the ex-assassin. "Si-sir Ace, do we have to go to such a place?"

He was shaking extr

If we had faced the original Jester...""Oy!

    "This place has everything!" Ace exclaimed as he and Vorus were awestruck after arriving at the battle dome. It was a section of the tower. A stadium with all sorts of fields for combat. "Those two seemed to have forgotten why we came here in the first place." Reginald face-palmed.Rex walked up to the bunch. "Hey!" Reginald and Maggie gave a murderous stare to the man as he flinched a little. "Tck. I'll make you bastards pay, just wait." "Move aside you wannabes. I'm here to speak with that guy." He points at Ace. "Captain to Captain." "What did you just say?" Reginald rolls up his sleeves as Rex finished. "It's okay Regi."Ace walked up to Rex. "So, how may I help you?" "I take it you fancy this here battle dome... Want to compete with us in a 3 on 3 fight?""What's this runt up to?" Reginald could smell something fishy going on. "Sure. Let's fight!" "Haha! I've been itching to duke it out with someone here." Vorus chimed in on the conversation. Rex led them to one

    "Huff. Huff." "Hey! You big chunk of meat. Look what you did to Coby!"A vein popped on Rex's head."What's wrong, little runt?"Reginald sneered. "Oh, don't tell me you actually thought your friend over there would win just because he could read minds." Rex widened his eyes as he gently lays Coby on the ground."Stay put." He said to the unconscious Mind reader as he looks at his other clanmate. "Deen! Look after him." Deen nodded as Rex turned his attention at Reginald. He points at him. "Sit tight and wait for me, you're next just as soon as I puy your oversized friend here in his place." "How are they so strong?"Rex had underestimated the Aegis clan. That had always been his issue in the first place.He lacks the intuition to scale a person's power. Even when he witnessed them take out a hundred relic beasts, he merely saw that as a team effort."Nonetheless, he beat up my clanmate and I intend to make him pay!"Rex walked into the ring to stand face to face against Vor

    The main methods in harnessing ain were divided into three:Aura, the act of expunging one's own inner spirit. It is driven by emotions and several other mental factors. The stronger the mentality of the person using aura, the stronger the aura they can control. Aura is the hardest method to be used as only a few could harness this power, some are only able to create objects using their aura others could go as far as to make their aura intensify around them to the extent that relics lose their powers temporarily. The next method is doping which is further divided into three. In speed doping, the user gathers most of his/her ain to boost their reflexes and movement speed. The stronger the ain of the user, the faster they can go. In hard doping, the user hardens their very skin to tank powerful attacks with ease. Some even go further to combine hard doping and power doping to create powerful attacks. Power doping boosts the attack power of the user. The final method and the most

    "You get one chance to give me your all. I'm guessing that's all you can muster before you run out of ain.""You bastard... Just wait and see how I roast your ass like a marshmallow!" "Haha. Bring it on, Rex."Ace not fazed by the intensifying heat surrounding him summoned his shadow daggers once again.The two both scurried back to ready their final attack. "If you're going to go all out, so will I!" Ace's aura flared up till it touched the ceiling of the stadium. The people having match-ups in the other arenas paused their battles due to the extreme heat as they all focused their attention on the source. "S-so much power!" "He's standing right next to him and he seems unaffected by this scorching heat.""Move aside I'm going to record this." Even the audience had gathered around the empty seats where the other Aegises were. "Rex is fired up... Literally," Maggie said. "What do you expect? He's facing the Demon spawn." Reginald basked at the blazing aura surrounding Rex and

    "Ahh!" Ace exclaimed as he slams a cup on a table. "Man this smoothy is good!" The crew was currently in the cafeteria section of the tower. Having destroyed most parts of the battle dome due to the collision of their powerful attacks, Ace, Rex and their respective clanmates made their way to a cafeteria for lunch. Vorus was devouring towers of food without a second's rest."Ace." "Yeah?" "Here." Rex kept a big bag on the table and pushed it as it slid towards Ace. "Huh?" Ace opens the back and was slightly blinded by the glittering sparkles of the object inside. The others peered a look as well as they all dropped their jaws. "It's an ain crystal!" "I don't understand." Ace faced the red-haired teen. "The match might have ended in a draw based on a technicality, but I still can't shake the fact that I lost. And as such, a bargain is a bargain."Rex folded his arms."Heh. The runt actually has a nice side in him. Who knew?" Reginald mocked with a smile. A vein popped on th

    It has been a day since the battle on the Aegis clan's ark, the Dragonheart. "We just got back from the doc." Kaz and Ace walked in on the others.They all dropped whatever they were doing and focused on the two. Maggie and Conroy were looking healthy having taken the antidote Ace gave them. "Vorus is going to be out for a while longer." "Great," Reginald says. "Our ark's busted and the big guy is out of commission." "The Vagrant games start in a few days. How are we ever going to get ready by then?" "About that..." Kaz intervenes as he looks at Ernie who nods his head. "I can't come with you guys." "I figured you'd say that." Ace places his hand on Kaz's shoulder. "I pulled you two away from your tasks with the base."The Vice-Captain shakes his head. "That's not it, Ace. Ernie covered a lot while I was helping you guys with the whole Rada Khan thing. We finished up the base."The Aegises faces lit up having received the good news from their teammates. However, their jubila

    "Alright kid, show me what you got." "Kill Switch!" Harold effortlessly blew the aura attack away with his dark aura hands. Ace gritted his teeth. "Nothing's happening." His frustration was evident to his friends. They were currently at the arena that Ace had fought Elder Bari on earlier. Ace was receiving training from Harold on how to harness his elemental aura. "As much as I hate to admit it," Said Reginald who was sitting in the middle of Kaz and Jacob. "Seeing how the demon spawn is struggling to unlock his element makes respect the historian and that shorty for unlocking theirs a bit.""Wow." Said Kaz. "Who knew you could make compliments...""I know right?" Reginald asks. "I feel like throwing up." Ace had been following Harold's guide to unlocking his element. "Close your eyes, and try and sense all the shadows around you." Some people unlock their elements easily and at a young age, others have to go through various training to reach that level. Ace took a deep breath

    "So, this is it." Ace faced his teammates. He recalled all the difficulties and trials they faced together. "We've been through alot, huh?" Reginald smirked. The others wore saddened expressions. "This goodbye is not forever, sir Ace." Conroy says struggling to put his emotions in check. "Yes!" Vorus exclaims as he throws his arms in the air. "When You return, I shall challenge you, Captain!" "I'll be sure to share my findings with you." Maggie added. "Yeah bro, we'll rock it out when you get back." Ernie added. "I'll keep these rascals in check for you." Said Kaz. "Guys..." Ace's eyes sparkled. He bows silently and turns to Ryker who was waiting for him with the Cruiser. "I'll miss you..."

"What do you think of Stally?" He asked with a grin as he puffs out his chest.Zera scans the cruiser momentarily before setting her gaze back to its captain. "She's as vibrant as ever." She remarked with a smile.Ryker wore a stoic expression as he glances at the two. 'Why are they talking as if the cruiser is a living thing?'Just then, Ming approached them."Ming..." Zera said in a cold tone.Ryker felt a chill run down his spine. She gave off the same vibe as earlier when they met. The look was aimed at the android yet he felt restless."Zera..." Ming responded in a similar manner."I see Jackie still hasn't taken you for recycling.""I see you're still trying to pass off as a young and beautiful woman despite being an old hag."A vein popped on the vampire's head.

Keith snapped at Tommaso. "Watch how you address me. I'm the captain here." "Pfft. Have you forgotten that I'm merely a part of your clan for conditional reasons? We're here to win the access codes." "Yeah yeah but that doesn't change the fact that I'm thr boss around here." Tommaso brushes off Keith's shoulder and made his way to the bed. He sat down and clutches his hands. His body was shaking excessively as he lowers his head. "That girl was stupid enough to awaken my taste for blood.""You almost killed her. As much as I love a good showing of brutality, that would have disqualified you." "You think your brother would just sit by and let me kill his clan mate?

    Ace used his strongest attack to attack Jester as Reginald and the Saints watched the mad clown get encased in the explosion of the massive slash attack."Is that it?" Asked Reginald. "I'm afraid not, lad." The dust clears and Jester remains standing although he had suffered considerable damage from the attack. He held his shoulder as his clones gathered around him. "These are your super clones?""The boy who barely killed one of my fingers has developed this much?" Jester didn't bat an eye away from Ace. He can share the same memories as his clones, so he recalls all the events that transpired with his clone that fought beside Rada Khan. "Harold," Ace looked at the Dark Saint.
