"You didn't have to go that far." Tommaso had returned to his room where he was met with the sight of Keith. "I thought you weren't coming till after your match?" "Don't change the subject!" 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? I thought you knew him better than that given that you two are twins." Keith clicked his tongue. "If I was you, I'd be worri

"Finally!" Ryker exclaimed as he spreads his arms apart. "I can breathe fresh air again!"He, Jackal and Zera have made their way back to the Black Stallion."Well?" Jackal turned to the vampire. "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. Zera gritted her teeth
"Hahaha!" Vorus bursts into laughter. "Amazing! You developed the mantra ability." "I've leveled up too, Sir Vorus." "Nevertheless, this match is mine for the taking... Blue Boomerang." Vorus hauls his hammer at the archer. Conroy stood unfazed as he stretches his hand forward. "Impossible!" Vorus grasped. Everyone in the colosseum began to mutter over the sight that they beheld. Conroy halted the hammer with one hand. "How?" "This is the power of mantra!" The mantra is a technique that is developed by chanting weird phrases as markings began to emerge on his body.These markings grant the user the ability to drain the ain of non-living components, these include the ain of strongly focused ain attacks, thus weakening them in the process."With the mantra, every attack that comes from the power of a relic or coated by aura is rendered nearly useless." Vorus already knew that mantra drains the ain of all ain-based attacks. But what he didn't know was that it could render a r

"Reed..." Ace looked to his brother."Brother." Said Keith.Reed's gaze waa locked at Stark. He silently walked past them to stand face-to-face with the phantom lord. "You're back. Now, punish these traitors." He pointed at Ace and Keith. The two widened their eyes. "Reed! You don't have to listen to him." "Is this the path that you have chosen?"Reed turned to face his brothers. He darts them a look that could very much kill. "I've decided... I'm going to kill you!"Reed's dagger flashed. Clank! "What do you think you're doing, boy?" Stark blocked Reed's dagger with his fingers. Reed used his ability to turn himself invisible. He appeared a few moments later in front of his brothers."Reed...""Brother...""Seth, Keith. I've been a bad older brother haven't I?" "Fools." Stark snarled.

The Aegis clan had all gathered at the bleachers to watch the match. They glared at the captain of the Valhalla clan as he descended to the bleachers. Tommaso had a smug look on his face as he looked at Ace who had waited for him to descend. "You finally get me, one on one. Are you excited?" Ace darts Tommaso with a venomous look.His hands were shaking excessively. It wasn't out of fear, but out of rage. He recalled the way the man in front of him bru
