Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 117 - Jealousy
Johann raises his glass by directing Dean’s attention somewhere else. “Why don’t you ask the man himself?”Dean averts his attention, and notices Maverick Watson having a talk with some public figures. And somehow, Maverick Watson ignores the people around him, and keeps staring at Dean without hiding his resentment.“Did he hire you to kill me?”“Why would you think I’d go so far just to kill you?” Johann diverts the question with another question.“Then why would you go so far to Braham University and ask the students there about me?” Dean replies to him with another question. “I know you deliberately greeted me as Crimson Warrior for a reason, and don’t think that I’m as naïve as your master’s son.”“Yeah, you’re right! He is indeed naïve, and spoiled by his dad.”“So, did he die?” asks Dean composedly as he keeps looking at Maverick Watson from a far.“Not really! Why?”Dean averts his attention to Johann, and smirks. “Such a shame,” he sneers.“So, you really tried to kill him? B
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 118 - He Is Serious
He sees Gale Nicholson as a role model, because that man is the one who discovered his talent and accepted him under his wings. Since then, Prof. Nicholson has never recognized other talents so far. But now, Prof. Nicholson actually recognizes Dean Morton’s talent, the guy who recently humiliated him. As his hatred and jealousy grow, he begins to feel a burning sensation in the cut on his right earlobe. The hatred grows so big, that he doesn’t care if he will accidentally kill Dean during the tournament. “No!” He shakes his head before taking his leave. “I have to crush that guy in front of Nicholson’s eyes. I don't care if I have to kill him.” A murmur occurs from the people around him, as if something has caught their attention. Luke Hawkins turns around, and finds the tournament organizer showing off three artifacts that will be the prizes of the tournament. “Apart from 10 million Estol, the winner is also entitled to get one of these three artifact items. And the first artifac
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 119 - More Than Magic
The fireball on Luke’s hand hasn't been fully created yet. It’s still in the shape of a tiny flame. He still needs to spell his unique catchphrase to impose some suggestion in his mind to create a certain magic.“Hymn of the Sun – Ball of Fira!”After mentioning that catchphrase, only then does the tiny flame turn into a small fireball. It’s actually much simpler than Nimeza spells that Mary often uses, and it is a catchphrase he creates himself.He then throws the fireball, and then reloads his gun with a new magazine. Dean manages to get away from the fireball, but Luke welcomes him with another barrage of bullets.Even with the bulletproof robe, Dean still feels the pain from the bullets that hit him. The problem is, he hasn't had time to create any spirit shield. And with him losing his composure won’t make his situation any better.The only thing he does is to keep moving with a random pattern to make it hard for Luke to take aim. And he has to do it still with a few bullets hit
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 120 - You Are No Match For Me
Not only combustion, the explosion also knocks Dean away, making him slide on the ground a few meters.“How?” He looks confused as he slides away. “I didn’t see him chanting any spell. This is not like what Mary told me.”He is busy patting his chest, extinguishing the small flame that is burning on his robe. But Luke doesn’t give Dean any room to recollect himself by immediately follows his previous attack.Some mages in the audience also seem a little confused. It’s not a matter of Luke not chanting any spells. After all, they can’t possibly hear him from a distance anyway.But the problem is, Luke used combustion attacks directly with his hands, from close range, which of course would also injure his own hand.“Is his hand okay?”“He must be using special
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 121 - A Pure Heart
At least, now Luke can see that there is a white aura covering Dean’s dagger in front of him. It looks dense and sharp, making the dagger seem longer and thicker, with a sharp edge.However, he is no longer able to endure all the confusion. So, in desperation, he just welcomes it with open arms, and…Brakkk!!!The stroke hits his chest, breaking his plate armor, and slamming him so hard to the back. Maybe the armor has protected him from the sharpness of Dean's dagger. But still, so much blood spurts out of his mouth.Dean follows it up, but no longer by using his dagger. He sends a huge swing, breaking through the magical barrier in front of Luke’s face, until his knuckles hits the man’s face right on his nose. And it’s clearly highlighted vividly on the big screen, in a close up.“Uuugghhh!!!”
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 122 - Ice Mage
In the period of more than 1 hour that Dean was in the treatment room, two matches had already taken place. And during that time, there was almost no noise from the spectators. This is all because the first battle was too epic, making the next two battles seem boring. Not to mention the competitive conditions which are so one-sided. When Dean appears in the spectator stands, all eyes immediately avert to him. They can no longer deny Dean's abilities. One by one, they get up and start giving a standing ovation. “Good job, new guy!” “You’ve proven to us that you shouldn’t underestimate people just because of their ranks and tribe.” “Show them that even the red-haired people can beat the most talented guardians in this province.” “The people who judged you as a D-rank Herald must be blind!” “Good job in proving them wrong!” Dean accepts their support with an awkward smile, rubbing the back of his head while bowing several times in various directions. He just continues like that wh
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 123 - A Potential Client
James' condition is not so dire so far. Even when a few of the ice spears hit him, they don’t hurt him too much. His mana shield is strong enough to protect his body. There are only a few scratches on his arms, and his robes are torn slightly in several parts. But the main problem is, he is getting tired after running away for so long. He has used so much mana to activate his body so he could move faster, and also to strengthen his defense. Until at some point, two ice spears penetrate his defense, and stick in his left shoulder and right thigh. His mana shield is getting thinner, and then disappears. “Shit, I’ve run out of mana,” mumbles James with a hard breath and a pale face. “And I can’t even reach that fucking bitch. Such a cowardly way to fight!” “You better give up now!” That woman persuades. “I can go on with this until dark, you know!” “Fuck you!” replies James with a mad face. “Sigh!” Rayne Clay slowly raises her two arms and starts chanting a spell. All the six ice go
Dean Morton : The Paupers' Guardian Angel 124 - Trust
Mary understands Dean's anxiety. But still, this isn’t something they can just selfishly force on a guild leader like Prof. Nicholson.“Is this about money?” She asks with an uninterested face.“Of, of course!” Dean affirms. “It’s 50 million Estol, Mary! 50 million!”“That 50 million is not going into your pocket,” Mary refutes as she turns away.“What? How?” Dean rushes to her impatiently. “I know it will be split equally between us, but…”“Most of the money will go to the guild, not to us,” Mary replies as she keeps walking.“That’s not fair,” mumbles Dean, standing dumbfounded with a blank face.Daniela comes to him, and affirms Mary’s words. “Don’t forget, the guild pay our salaries monthly. You think where did they get all the money to pay all the guardians?”“But still…”Mary then stops and turns to him. “We still get a bonus from the quest. Usually, 25 % of the money will go to the government, 55 % to guild, and 20 % to us.”“Then that means…,” mumbles Dean with a low voice.“Y

Even until the next few weeks, the situation in most places in The Democratic State of Yegristan, is still in chaos. Some of the vampires feel so relieved after finding out that they no longer have to drink human blood.But some of them are upset about losing their immortality. And their numbers are much greater, who are now venting their frustration and anger by causing chaos in society.But there are also some of them who do not realize what is happening, recklessly carrying out vandalizing, lootings and robberies, but later ultimately shot dead by the police.The current president is actually a half-blood from the Almas tribe, and he is still affiliated with the rulers of Estuaria.Instead of calming the chaos in his country, he is now in Medreisten, attending a meeting, which is also attended by representatives from two other kingdoms, Aflar and Ustobia.Even after Valery's death, these three countries are still under the influence of the Estuaria government, which is now under Sam

All the zombies in the forest, the dead vampires, Zulfik, and Harley, are now silent, swaying gently with blank faces.They stay like that, at least until all the specters within their bodies come out, and scatter in all directions. And instantly, all these lifeless bodies collapse.All the Manes in this forest are also getting out, seeming to be uncomfortable with the condition of the woods which have been covered in ice.They are interested in the stability in the area around Nimeza's core. The appearance of these Manes later catches Dean's attention.“I can't let them get near that stone.”Dean rushes over to the jet black stone, which is currently still in Valery's hand. Somehow, Valery’s hands are now slowly petrifying.This is what happens to people who lost their drive to live due to the effects of Nimeza's core, just like all the six previous kings of Yegristan who failed in inheriting that stone.Not only does he die, but every organ, cell and molecule in Valery’s body have b

Dean glances around to examine his situation. Suddenly, Namsqeem comes out of the soul shard which Dean keeps under his long blazer.“What is this? Why I feel so heavy?” asks Namsqeem.Dean doesn’t say a word. But at least, he looks so relieved knowing that the situation in Belestia Hill must have been secured.“These undead?” mumbles Namsqeem, seeming so familiar with Valery’s way of thinking. “He is going to use them to give him some space to cast his spells.”“I know,” Dean affirms. “Why don’t you deal with them, so I can handle that man?”Namsqeem makes his move. His sudden appearance has ruined all Valery’s plan. Now Valery needs to find another way to deal with Dean.But suddenly, he sees the arrival of so many missiles in the sky, coming from the east. They look so fast, because time passes with a different flow between inside the dome and outside it.All the missiles explode without being able to penetrate the dome. Yet, Valery still looks so upset, and Dean notices his sour f

Blood spurts from his mouth as his back hits the rocky cliff, where he gets stuck in the cracks caused by the impact.The crack then collapses, and he falls along with those rocks into a fairly large river below.A few moments later, Dean emerges from the river, floating to the edge, before he lands on the river bank, and immediately kneels down while coughing.“That was dangerous,” he mutters.His body releases thick haze, not just the steam of evaporating water from his soaked long blazer, but also the effects of his regeneration skill healing his wounds.There Dean realizes that his self-healing ability is much faster than usual. But still, that is no reason for him to feel safe.This regeneration won’t be able to raise him from death if one lethal attack kills him. Not to mention about the situation in Belestia Hill which he has been worrying about.“I can't be careless now. I have to end this as soon as possible.”Soon, he notices the emergence of fires in the forest. Even though

Zulfik's headless body is still floating while flapping his wings, as is Harley's headless body in his mechanical suit.Both of them are still alive and still able to control their bodies, at least until Valery pulls out the curse of immortality he once placed on them.Two blobs of bituminous liquid come out of Harley and Zulfik's bodies, before evaporating in the air. Only after that, the two headless bodies fall down as lifeless corpses.Apparently, these betrayals have disappointed Valery so much that he no longer wants to trust anyone.“I know you loved sacrificing your pawns to achieve your goals. But why?”Dean asks coldly, speaking in Nimeza language, and it’s effective to draw Valery’s interest.“Why you killed them now when you should be able to use them? Is this how you are going to create peace in the world?”To find Dean so fluent talking in that language, even with the native accent of ancient Zalfari people, Valery replies to him also in Nimeza language.“I don’t need the

Despite his indifferent attitude, believe me, he is really in a precarious condition right now.This is one of the side effects of Nimeza's core on him, which makes him always at peace, completely indifferent to life and death.One of the negative effects is that he has not been taking his fight seriously, which ultimately leads to his current situation.The only thing now which makes him think seriously about his fate is because of the safety of his wife and kid.But on the good side, he can still think calmly despite his situation, taking his time amidst the clouds, as if relaxing on a soft mattress.“Okaay, why don't I try to dig up a little of the memories of those old men?”He closes his eyes, trying to remember, as if what the four ancient apparitions had experienced in the past is his own experience.Unfortunately, they’d never been in a condition like this, and there is not the slightest memory where they had a technique which allowed them to fly.Until then…“Let's try the th

That’s the message given by Valery. And Antonin knows so well how important this warning is. That’s why he only tries to waste time, with so much alertness, without any intention to get close to Dean.He swings the two weapons from a distance, and again releases many ethereal weapons in all directions.These ethereal weapons linger around for a few minutes, spinning and floating randomly around Antonin, like satellites orbiting a planet.“What is he thinking? Is he going to attack me or not?”The movement of those ethereal weapons makes Dean a little confused, because they look more like protection instead of an offensive technique.But then, the ethereal weapons orbiting on the outermost side are getting further away from Antonin. Even though they are still circling around Antonin, they are starting to head towards Dean in their orbits.Dean steps away to avoid it, and then some of the ethereal weapons disappear into the thin air. Even so, Antonin still continues to swing his gryphon

After such a shocking surprise attack, which has destroyed the military ranks complete with their tanks and trucks, the situation suddenly becomes so quiet.Only the sound of moans of pain can be heard, accompanied by the sound of flames shooting out from the burning oil tanks of several trucks.And there is a man in a black long blazer, with most of his head wrapped in a cloth, standing in the middle of the chaos.“Go back to your homes!” he exclaims in a loud voice. “This is the final warning. You will not get anything good even if you win this war. It doesn't mean there will be a chance for you to win it. If you leave now, I’ll guarantee your safety from my wrath.”His voice is so loud, as if he is speaking with a megaphone. It even reaches the ears of a few soldiers in a tank more than 50 meters away.“Who is this guy?”“Who cares? Let’s see if he still can say a word after eating this one!”Soon, the tank open fires, shooting one HEAT (High Explosive Anti-tank) projectile, which

Valery can clearly feel her strong presence, but he is still in the state of confusion at the moment. After all, the last time he met Zamira was already more than two thousand years ago.He just assumes this strong presence is just one of the high-skilled Defteros taking part in the battle in Hullback Town.Until then, one of his pawns, an ancient specter named Shaheen, comes to him to informs about something.“Master! I just felt the present of Namsqeem in Belestia Hill,” he says.“Namsqeem?” Valery mutters curiously, feeling quite familiar with the name.“It’s Cresta’s lovely pet,” Shaheen informs.“Oh, that little one,” Valery sneers.“I don’t think you can call him that way now,” Shaheen reprimands. “It’s been two thousand years already. And there’s another strong spirit creature with him at moment. I’m not so sure if he is a specter or a mane. But there’s something strange with his form. It’s similar to what Cresta did to Namsqeem in the past.”Valery's facial expressions change.
