Clank!

Swoosh!

Having completely shattered all the furniture and items in the room they were in, Lex and Asphalt both stopped in their tracks and faced each other.

The two were both battered and tired as they were breathing heavily too.

"Huff. Huff. Had enough?" Reginal said with a corky attitude.

"Hahahaha. I am just getting started." Asphalt disappears as he finished and starts blitzing around the room at light speed.

'Tsk, I have less than five minutes to end this or my snatch steal's duration will end.'

His opponent had a similar thought as he had also burned a lot of stamina and was planning on ending the fight as well.

Lex sounded confident earlier, whereas in reality, he was worried that soon enough his Magic Item's ability would end and enter a cool down period, thus he wouldn't be able to keep up.

'Here I come.'

He holds his sword with both hands and takes a stance as he closes his eyes.

After duking it out for so long against the speedster, Lex had finally figured out a

    Lex and Farrow had finally bested their opponents and were now standing across their unconscious teammate and his opponent."Get off him, now!"Lex draws out his sword as Farrow takes aim, ready to fire."My my, there's no need to be so angsty."The man got up and began to approach the duo, leaving the flattened Vladimir behind. "I take it you two have beaten Asphalt and Kyla? Sisi won't be happy about that." 'Tsk, I still need about ten minutes before I can use snatch steal again.' Lex grits his teeth while Farrow is sweating bullets as they both watch Quest as he approaches them slowly. "Why don't you both surrender? You might have beaten those two, but even I can't possibly come out of that fight unscathed." The real reason Lex and Farrow were sweating nervously right now was due to the fact that they were both exhausted and way past their limits. They have suffered a lot of injuries and taken a considerable amount of damage from their respective opponents. Farrow barely gat

    The blackness was perfect—a sort of visual silence that could send chills through anyone's spine.The two captains were squaring off in the dark room of the void.Tyson, being able to use seismic senses, was freely maneuvering through the darkened room.Yuni, on the other hand, was barely able to block some of Tyson's attacks.It was truly a one-sided battle.The room was completely pitch black, and she was being forced to heighten all of her other senses in order to keep up with Tyson.The black zone was one of the techniques that Tyson used proficiently as an assassin.The fact that he was using a technique that he swore never to use again shows just how formidable Yuni was.At the start of their confrontation, Tyson had taken considerable damage from Yuni's scythe, which drains power from the victim's soul directly.It was a completely agonizing experience for Tyson, who was used to all sorts of pain.He experienced the same type of pain that he usually feels whenever he trades his

    "Huff. Huff. Huff. I finally made it."Lex was carrying an unconscious Farrow as he arrived at the Mini Cruiser.He lumps the archer on the bed and takes a moment to catch his breath."Now for the big palooza."Vlaimir was nowhere to be seen, as Lex only arrived with Farrow. Where could he possibly be?"Undo the shadow realm prison!"The shadow lurking around Lex swells as the large warrior appears out of it.Lex had used snatch steal once again and copied Tyson's magical item. He then activated the shadow technique that Tyson used to send Lex to the shadow realm when he was in a critical condition.It was all so that he could carry the both of them to safety while Tyson wrapped up the battle."Now where did we stash old man Shambala's medicine?"Benny was kneeling with his arms spread apart as he awaited his faith.Jake clenched the handle of his sword hard as he charged at the other swordsman.Benny closed his eyes, and a great silence enveloped the room. He opened his eyes to see t

    "Ack! What are you doing!?" Tyson, who had arrived with Yuni at the nick of time, grabbed the blade that was aiming for the captured general's chest.Before anybody could react to the sudden appearance of the ex-assassin, he sent Benny flying with a punch."What in the world do you think you're doing!?""Tsk, it's none of your business." Benny scoffs as he looks to the other side, not wanting to make eye contact with Tyson. "This is the only way for justice to prevail."He got back up and wiped Tyson's blood that splattered all over his face from when he stopped the sword with his bare hands."Justice? You think killing him is justice?" Tyson takes a few steps forward until he is standing face-to-face with Benny."Yuni, what are you doing here? Did you bring the enemy here?""Jake, I know this may sound selfish, and I know how far you all went for me, and I'm very grateful to you guys. But let's forget the past and move on."Jake widened his eyes, as he couldn't believe what he'd hea

    "There are so many people here!""And they're all brave like us."The gang had made their way to the top of Mount Lily for their first crypt raid as a clan."Woah, I can see Lily Town all the way from here."The mountain top was also a famous tourist attraction on the western continent.Braves travel far and wide from different corners of the world so they can participate in the Aquarius crypt trial."There's the portal." Vlaimir points in the direction of the crypt's portal."Come on, let's go!" Tyson dashes in the direction of the portal. He turns around and calls out to his clanmates to follow suit.Thud!"He crashed into a woman, and her glasses fell to the ground."My glasses! Hey, watch where you're going, punk!" She gets down and begins to pat the ground helplessly, trying to feel her glasses. Tyson picks up the glasses and hands them over to the woman with both hands as he bows apologetically. "My apologies; I wasn't looking where I was going." She snatches the glasses and

    Along the route leading to the capital of Korre, a carriage was passing through."You truly plan on going against your own family, brother?""I lost my brother the day you let your hatred for magic items turn into an obsession."Benny was driving the carriage with his brother tied and seated behind him."I plan on conveying the truth to the king: that it was you who shared letters with the enemy and framed Yuni." He carefully manoeuvres through the bumpy road."I will bring you to justice; that shall be my repentance."Just as he was about to finish, an arrow flew in their direction.'Tsk. Ambush!?'He avoided most of the arrows that aimed for them. Eventually, he couldn't dodge an exploding arrow that sent them crashing into a tree.Benny burst into tears as his vision got blurry. He could see the silhouette of a woman standing in front of them, with a dozen archers behind her.He sneered at the sight of the woman untying his brother as they all looked down at him.

    In the heart of a dense forest, Benny, wrapped in bandages, stirred awake inside a rough tent."Ouch, where am I?"Rubbing his head, he winced, recalling the incident that led to his current state.Clutching his fists tightly, he unleashed his anger through his aura."I wanted my brother to come back with me to Korre and face the consequences.""That lunatic is out there because of me."Gradually, Benny calmed down as his aura faded away."Caww!"A bird's call drew his attention outside, where he spotted a rainbow-coloured bird and an old man."Hehehe, it looks like the youngster's up, Ada.""Wow!"Meanwhile, Tyson and his team completed their first trial in the Aquarius crypt and prepared for the final challenge.Walking through a vast hall adorned with ancient symbols, Jolie marveled at the sight."This is amazing!"She traced her fingers over the intricate designs, oblivious to their historical significance."Geeking out already? We still have work to do," Lex reminded her.Ignorin

    In a hidden base just outside of Korre..."Those cursed Magical Item users, Tyson, Yuni... I'll make them pay for humiliating me."He punched the desk, shattering it."Commander, please calm down. If you release your aura, the region's sensory team might detect us."He took three deep breaths and approached the screen showing surveillance footage.He smirked at seeing Benny enter the region."It seems the traitor survived. It doesn't matter now; I have a plan."His phone beeped, and he answered it.A faint voice muttered, "Everything's ready. You'll have what you want, and I'll become king."The former general's laughter echoed at the base.The location was the district commander's castle in Capital. Gantala was sitting on a throne with his cheek rested on his palm."Oh, Radaaaa, I'm back." Fiendlown entered the room, skipping around as he paused on his tracks when he was but a few steps away from Gantala."Fiendlown, did you deliver the letter?"The masked clown laughed and gave him

    "What brings you here, Grim!?" Tyson's voice rang out, filled with surprise and disbelief."My, is that any way to address your beloved teacher?" Grim responded with a smirk, drawing everyone's attention towards Tyson."He's the most psychotic person in the House of Bronze. My father might lead, but Grim, he's pure evil," Tyson explained, his tone serious."Stop it!" Grim chuckled, gently touching his cheek. "You're making me blush.""Tck, Kaz!" Tyson turned to his vice captain.Kaz met Tyson's gaze and nodded. "Got it," he said, placing his hand on Tyson's, transferring some of his own energy."Thanks," Tyson said gratefully as he felt his powers replenish. It wasn't full strength, but it would do for what lay ahead."Three Dons, the strongest assassins of the house, using shadow or dark elements, and Grim, on par with them," Tyson summarised."Everyone," Tyson addressed his friends. "I can't guarantee our safety. If you want to leave, I'll understand.""No way am I missing this! I w

    "Hahaha!" Vladimir bursts into laughter, impressed. "Amazing! You developed the mantra ability.""I've levelled up too, Sir Vladimir," Farrow responds confidently."Nevertheless, this match is mine for the taking... Blue Boomerang," Vladimir declares as he hurls his hammer at the archer.Farrow stands unfazed, stretching his hand forward."Impossible!" Vladimir grapples with the unexpected turn of events, while murmurs ripple through the colosseum.Farrow effortlessly halts the hammer with one hand, stunning everyone."How?" Vladimir asks, bewildered."This is the power of the mantra!" Farrow explains as strange markings emerge on his body.The mantra technique involves chanting phrases, granting the user the ability to drain the astral energy of non-living components, weakening them momentarily."With the mantra, every attack from a magic item or coated by animation is rendered nearly useless," Farrow elucidates.Vladimir realises that Farrow's mantra can drain the astral energy of m

    "So, that's it."The Nightshade clan was on the deck of the Mini-Cruiser, enjoying the food Tyson had brought from the Eastern continent.Vladimir had a mountain of food in front of him, diving in eagerly."Can't you eat slowly, big guy?" Ernie joked."A man has to eat fast if he wants to grow fast.""Preach on, brother!" The guitarist nodded in agreement, taking a puff from his blunt. "Also, congrats to all of you for making it to the second round." He gave them a thumbs-up."You all did well," Kaz commented."But it only gets harder from here," Lilith added.The Nightshade clan faced tough competition, and even though they were the only clan to have all members qualify for the second round, they might end up facing each other."Yeah, there are a tonne of commendable fighters who made it through the first round," Farrow added."There's the Enders, Red Souls, and Valhalla clans.""Rhea and Crimson, I hope I fight one of them soon!""You hope to fight everyone soon!"

    "You're a lone brave, right? Say, Would you like to join my clan?""Ehhh!?" Tyson's unexpected offer surprised everyone."Hehe, it's typical for Tyson to do something unexpected," Ernie commented.Even the Dragon Constellar was taken aback by the ex-assassin's actions.She glanced at Maggie. "Is he always like that?""You have no idea, sister."Tyson confronted the Ice Mage. "So... what's your decision?"Jakeem burst into laughter. "You're quite the wild one, aren't you?"He jumped back, creating an ice wall. "I like your bluntness, but I must decline your offer.""Ehhh!" The crowd reacted in shock."He declined...""A chance to join the Nightshade clan!?"Jakeem conjured an icicle blast, causing the ice wall to rumble."Trouble," Tyson's senses warned as he activated his glider mode."Point One: Glider!" His dark Anima wings emerged.Farrow's eyes lit up at the sight of Tyson's new form. "Sir Tyson has improved without his shadow magic item.""That's expected of our captain," Vladimi

    Chapter 127 - A Lone Brave

    "A lone brave, huh?" Jake remarked.Lone braves were those who tackled the zodiac crypts' trials solo, without affiliating with any clan.The exception was the first zodiac crypt, where a rule mandated teams of four.After that, they faced the trials alone."This won't be an easy battle for Chase," Lexi chimed in."Don't worry, guys," Rhea interjected. "We've all gotten better, right? Lone brave or not, Chase will impress!""The match is starting.""Hey speedster, ready to face the ripster?" Rip teased.Chase tilted his head, then shifted to a serious expression."They say you lone Braves pack a punch." Chase mused as his boots glowed. "Some even call you socially awkward."Tyson eagerly anticipated their clash, recalling their previous fight where Chase's speed had posed a challenge.As Chase and Rip faced off, Tyson reminisced about their encounter."I've been itching for a rematch with Chase at full power," Tyson mused, his smile turning into a frown. "Too bad he's going down.""Wh

    "What!" "What do you mean we can't all participate?" The Nightshade clan was currently about to register for the tournament. The woman sitting at the other side of the desk looked at them with an unfazed expression. "I'm sorry, those are the rules. A clan can have at most 5 participants for the tournament." Tyson slammed his hands on the desk. "But..." "There is no, but I'm afraid. Rules are rules. It was set this way to allow Braves that are not affiliated with clans and smaller clans to participate. The requirement is that you flash the hidden markings you get for solving the zodiac crypts.""I see." The ex-assassin finally gave up as he turned to his clanmates. He counted himself, Kaz, Ernie, Farrow, Maggie, Vladimir, and Lilith."Don't sweat it, dudes and dudettes." "Yeah, Sir Ernie said he wouldn't be participating." "Is it because of that thing?" Kaz addressed the guitarist. "Who knows?" Ernie shrugged off the question as he pocketed his hands. "That leaves six of u

    "Ladies and gentlemen!" A man's voice echoed through the bustling streets of Lundar. "You have all waited for this day ever since we were chosen to host the 47th annual Vagrant Games here in Lundar!" In the middle of the city was a broad colosseum. There is a big arena in the middle, and several thousand seats are being occupied by the minute. It was truly a sight to behold. A large microphone erected from a pole in the arena carried the voice of the commentator. "In less than a few hours, Braves and Clans from around the continent who have peered through the difficulties and concurred three of the famed zodiac crypts shall battle for the grand prise of 1 million peaks, access codes to vintage websites of the past world, and for the first time in the history of the tournament, we will be issuing a magic item. All these prizes are for the first place alone.""Hurry up, guys!" Tyson cheerfully calls out to Kaz and Lilith, who were dragging heavy loads. "Maybe we won't be so slow i

    Chapter 124 - The Meeting

    It has been a day since the raid on the Elder's secret chambers. Elder Baraya had recovered completely thanks to Kisha using a healing pulse on him. Most parts of the chambers were ravaged, and all the ninjas that were still alive were rounded up and locked somewhere. "Let the meeting begin!" Elder Ram declares from the altar as he and Baraya look down on the Constellars, Tyson, and Kaz. "I told Lex to head to Lundar if he escapes." Tyson states. "And I've spoken with the others; I briefed them on everything that has transpired so far; they will be heading to Lundar today, leaving me and Tyson left." At first, the vagrant games were merely a way for the Nightshade clan to test their might against other clans. But as the events unfolded, they found out that one of the clans participating in the tournament was the Valhalla clan. A clan that works directly under Hudson is one of their common enemies with the Constellars. "Adacus..." Elder Ram called for the retired Constellar.
