2022-10-27 14:57:56The time for the talent selection was rapidly approaching, and the young talents of the city were all busy preparing, training tirelessly for the big day. Their minds were filled with thoughts of the selection, anxious to prove themselves worthy and be chosen. But there was one who was not worried about being selected—Faul.
While others fretted about their chances, Faul remained focused on a singular goal: to grow stronger. He was not concerned with the selection. His heart and mind were consumed with the thought of finding his mother. He couldn’t shake the feeling that something was wrong, that she was out there, and he was determined to rescue her. "I wonder if my mother is still alive. I will find her. I will save her," Faul thought to himself, clenching his fist as he punched a large tree beside him, creating a deep dent in its trunk. His frustration was palpable. "If only I wasn't reincarnated in this weak human body," he hissed under his breath, his frustration growing as he stared at the tree before him. Faul wandered deep into the mountains, his thoughts heavy with sadness and confusion. It was there, by a spring, that he sat down, his heart weighed down by an unshakable sorrow. The tranquility of the place only seemed to deepen his longing. "This place reminds me of Azra. It's peaceful here," Faul thought, his mind drifting to memories of his former life, the land of Azra, and the peaceful moments that once existed. Suddenly, a voice interrupted his quiet reflection. "Hey, man! What’s wrong with you? I’ve been following you for what feels like eternity. Why are you just wandering around the mountains?" Faul turned his head and saw Phil approaching, talking nonstop, his voice full of exasperation. "You’re getting stronger. Did you see the dent you left on that tree? At some point, I got tired of sneaking around and following you. I even thought about going back to the city if you didn’t stop wandering around here." Phil continued, not noticing Faul’s deepening mood. "And what exactly are you doing in the mountains anyway? Everyone else is busy training for the talent selection, and you don’t seem bothered at all." Faul didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he simply turned to face Phil, his expression cold and serious. "I know you’ve been following me. And I know others are following you too." Phil raised an eyebrow, scoffing. "What are you talking about? No one’s following me," he said dismissively, not taking Faul’s words seriously. Faul didn’t respond to the teasing. He simply stared past Phil, his gaze sharp and focused. "You can come out now. There’s no point in playing hide-and-seek with me." Suddenly, Leo and his three cousins, along with their family’s top fighter, stepped out from behind the trees. Phil froze, startled by the sudden appearance of the group. He had no idea they had been following him all along. Leo smirked, stepping forward with confidence. "I don’t know how you do it, but it doesn’t matter now. Today, we’re going to beat you down." He sneered at Faul. "Oh, and by the way, I don’t know how you handled the proud Harry, but he didn’t want to join this little Faul-hunting party of ours." Leo’s voice dripped with arrogance as he continued, "You see, little man, you insulted me. You insulted my family and my clan by challenging Sir Ragnik. Harry is my cousin, but because of his cowardice in refusing to handle your mess, his position has now been given to me. I promised to take care of you. You might have beaten me that day, but that was only because I wasn’t prepared and took you lightly. Today, I will show you the power of the Hazu family." Faul’s face remained blank, devoid of any emotion. "Are you done talking?" he asked, his voice calm and detached. Leo and his group were stunned, their prideful expressions faltering as they stared at Faul. His lack of fear only seemed to fuel their anger. Faul continued, unfazed by their hostility. "If you’re done talking, I need to ask you one thing." The group was silent, waiting for him to speak. Faul, still sitting on the stone slab by the spring, crossed his legs in a relaxed posture. "Are you worthy to fight me? I might be an eleven-year-old teenager, but I have experience of over five thousand years." The words hung in the air like a challenge, impossible to ignore. The group stared at him, dumbfounded. "Ha ha... Isn’t he funny?" one of Leo’s experts said, laughing loudly at Faul’s seemingly ridiculous claim. "An eleven-year-old with over five thousand years of experience? What a joke." "Shadow, he’s gone insane. I heard his mother was taken, and since then, he’s lost his mind," Leo added, mocking Faul further. The mention of his mother, however, snapped something inside Faul. His anger flared, and his body tensed as he stood up from the stone slab. His gaze was burning with fury, his eyes glowing as a dark aura enveloped him. "Repeat what you just said about my mother," Faul said, his voice trembling with anger. "I... said... you... have... gone... insane... ever... since... your... mother..." Leo stammered, but he couldn’t finish his sentence. Before he could get another word out, a hole the size of a fist appeared in Leo’s chest. He gasped in shock, his eyes wide with disbelief, before collapsing to the ground, dead. Faul’s expression remained cold and merciless. "Nobody talks about my mother," he said with a chilling finality. "But for doing so, you are all now sentenced to death by my hand." As Faul spoke, his body began to change. His fangs elongated, his eyes glowed a deep red, and his scales spread across his skin, covering him like armor. A powerful aura emanated from him, and his fingernails grew into sharp claws. His transformation was terrifying, a sight of pure power. The group was frozen in fear, unable to react in time. Before they could even think to defend themselves, Faul moved with lightning speed, and in an instant, their hearts were ripped from their chests, leaving them dead before they could even comprehend what had happened. Phil, who had been hiding in the distance, watched in horror. He had never grown accustomed to Faul’s strange transformations, the sudden shifts in his appearance and power. He had always kept his distance, never fully understanding what Faul was capable of. Now, he was witnessing it firsthand, and it terrified him. Faul stood over the lifeless bodies of Leo and his group, his gaze cold and indifferent. He drained the human essence from their bodies, his eyes glowing as the power flowed through him. "None of you are worthy to stand before me," Faul said, his voice calm but filled with undeniable authority. Phil remained hidden, his heart pounding in his chest. He had never seen this side of Faul, and he wasn’t sure if he ever wanted to again.

It had been far too long since Leo and four of his companions had gone missing. Only a few people knew what they had set out to do before their disappearance, but the silence surrounding their fate was becoming unbearable for their families. Tensions were rising, and questions remained unanswered. "Ragnik, your son knows the whereabouts of my son. Why isn’t he saying anything?" George’s voice was filled with frustration and growing anger. Ragnik, sitting calmly across from him, studied George carefully. "George, calm down. My son is just a boy. He will surely tell me where he last saw your son." But George’s eyes were filled with worry and suspicion as he turned his gaze toward Ragnik’s son, Harry, who sat nervously in the corner of the room, avoiding eye contact. George was not easily appeased. His son was missing, and something about the whole situation felt off. "Harry, I am your father. Tell me what happened to Leo and the others," Ragnik asked, his tone calm but firm. His gaze
Faul: The Reincarnation Chapter 20: Almighty Little Faul
The days leading up to the talent selection passed without much event, as all the young individuals prepared for the approaching test of their skills. Faul, as usual, remained indifferent, showing little concern for the upcoming event. His focus was elsewhere, as he was still preoccupied with his own journey, one that was far more personal than the selection. "Faul, the talent selection is tomorrow. I hope you know that?" Phil asked, his voice tinged with concern as he stared at his friend's emotionless expression. "Yeah, I know. Is there any problem with that?" Faul replied nonchalantly, his tone carrying the same indifference that had characterized him for as long as Phil had known him. "You’ve been acting like none of this matters to you," Phil continued, the worry in his voice growing. "I know you're strong, but don’t you realize we’ll be facing the Silver Knights? They’re no joke." Faul's face remained expressionless as he glanced at Phil, his eyes calm. "I told you, Phil.

"Everyone, get ready and head down to the training fields! The selectors are here," Alfred called out, his voice carrying across the group of kids anxiously awaiting the start of the talent selection. "And behave yourselves. Put on your best attitude and fight well to qualify." Faul, as usual, stood off to the side, seemingly unaffected by the tension in the air. He was calm, even though the weight of the day’s events hung heavy in the hearts of many. Phil, his best friend, approached him, wrapping his arms around Faul’s neck in a playful manner. "Hey, Faul. How are you feeling about today?" Phil asked, a hint of nervousness creeping into his voice. Faul paused for a moment, considering the question. "I’m feeling good, but something doesn’t feel right today," he replied, his tone thoughtful yet cryptic. Phil furrowed his brow, wondering what Faul meant by that. "Uh... What do you mean by that? Because you’re starting to get me scared," he admitted, a flicker of anxiety crossing
Faul: The Reincarnation Chapter 22: A Knight Or A Mage 2
Phil couldn’t contain his excitement as he thought about how his relationship with Amy had just taken a significant step forward. The moment they shared was still fresh in his mind, and the joy of it all filled him with a sense of warmth. He felt like everything in his life was falling into place. But just as he was enjoying the moment, an unfamiliar voice interrupted his thoughts, breaking the calm that had settled over Faul and Anna. "Hey, you must be Faul?" the voice called out, cutting through the tension in the air. "Yeah, he is. Any issue with that?" Anna replied sharply, her frustration clear. She had been enjoying her time with Faul, but this interruption was not welcome. The young man before them sneered, his eyes scanning Anna with a look of disdain. "Oh... You must be his little girlfriend," he said, his tone laced with scorn. Faul’s gaze hardened as he turned to face the stranger. His voice was cold and detached as he responded, "And you are?" The young man chuckled,
Faul: The Reincarnation Chapter 23: A Knight Or A Mage 3
The battle for the selection had begun, and the arena was alive with the sounds of combat. Fifty contenders for the Knight School stood ready, while only ten Silver Knights were there to face them. The odds were steep, but the contenders fought bravely. As the battle raged on, half of the contenders had already been defeated. Fortunately, no one had died yet. The only casualty so far was Phil, who had been severely injured, with a heavily damaged leg and upper arm. Despite his injuries, Phil was one of the few who had passed the battle, a testament to his strength and determination. However, the battle had taken a darker turn. George, one of the Ruby Knights, had arranged for a Golden Knight to disguise himself as a Silver Knight. His purpose was clear: he wanted to take Faul down. George had been seething with anger ever since the loss of his son, and he was determined to rid himself of the young warrior who had caused him such frustration. Faul, however, remained unaware of the sche
Faul: The Reincarnation Chapter 24: Killing A Golden Knight
The commotion caused by Faul’s little encounter with the mage had finally died down, and the arena was once again lively, as if nothing had happened. The crowd’s excitement had settled, and the air seemed charged with anticipation for the next battles. "Let us continue with the rest of the knight candidates," Sir Donald said, his voice carrying over the crowd. He sat back down on his chair and gestured for the match to begin. It was now Harry's turn to climb the stage and battle for his chance to enter the prestigious Kaar Knight School. Harry strode onto the stage with a sense of confidence, his every step exuding the air of a seasoned warrior. Known as one of the finest swordsmen at the camp before Faul’s arrival, Harry had held on to the belief that no one could best him—except Faul. Since the day he was defeated by the young warrior, Harry had been training relentlessly, driven by the desire to get stronger and avenge his loss. As Harry climbed the stage, he stood side by side w
Faul: The Reincarnation Chapter 25: Killing A Golden Knight 2
Faul and the knight stood opposite each other, the tension in the air thick enough to be cut with a blade. The Golden Knight, his armor gleaming under the sun, exchanged a brief glance with George, who sat at the selector’s table. With a silent nod from George, the Golden Knight understood his instructions: use any means necessary to rid himself of Faul. His mission was clear. “Accidents can lead to death, but do not intentionally kill your opponent,” Sir Donald’s voice rang out across the arena, drawing the attention of everyone present. “Beat down the knight to win, or hold out until the time runs out. Let the fight begin!” At the signal, the fight was on. Faul stood still, his posture as calm as ever, exuding an aura of tranquility that seemed almost unnatural. He was in no hurry, his blood flowing with grace, every muscle relaxed yet ready. His eyes were shut tight, his focus so intense that he could feel every vibration in the arena—the shifting of feet, the tension in the air,
Faul: The Reincarnation Chapter 26: Fierce Heart
The arena was as quiet as a graveyard after the events that had unfolded on the stage just moments before. The tension in the air was thick, and the stillness was almost oppressive. The crowd, once filled with cheers and excited murmurs, had been reduced to a stunned silence. They couldn’t comprehend what had just happened. George, however, was the most shocked of all. His carefully laid plan to rid himself of Faul’s presence had been shattered in an instant, and now he was left to deal with the consequences of his failure. His plot had been foiled with such swiftness that he couldn’t help but feel the sting of humiliation. "Why is he always getting farther ahead of me?" Harry thought, his gaze fixed on Faul, who stood motionless in the center of the stage, his expression unreadable. "I have trained hard, but I’m still nowhere near him." Harry’s thoughts were filled with a mixture of admiration and frustration. Despite all of his own hard work, Faul seemed to be on an entirely differ

Billie's Adventure
The Red Dragon Escort Cavalry has been a name feared by bandits in and out of many Kaar cities. Just the mere mention of the name Red Dragon Escort Cavalry, foes, and even other escort cavalries would tremble to the extent that each task they showed interest in was left alone by all other escort cavalries. But despite all the fame and glory, even a mighty cavalry like the Red Dragon Escort Cavalry has its problems but it is something that Billie can handle. Controlling five magic powers and controlling them with perfection is a thing many are envious of, but no one has the guts to let Billie know that. Billie is someone who is kind but does not tolerate any nonsense. At his age, he is the leader of a mighty escort cavalry that puts any bandit group to the ground. The name, Red Dragon Escort Cavalry, is a warrior on its own, and when the members of the escorting cavalry show up, any bandit will be annihilated. After Faul in the hands of Alfred, he embarked on his own journey to find
You are my master?
Faul was utterly surprised by what Yin and Yang said, but he just couldn't believe it. "What did you say?" Faul tightened his grip around Yin and Yang's neck. "I... said... my... master... is... the greatest dragon that ever lived, Braf," Yin and Yang forced himself to say while being choked. Faul dropped him to the ground, standing still for a few minutes before he opened his hands towards the thick smoke, and it spread far and wide, growing even thicker. "Why is he acting like this? No one should know my master around here, right?" Yin and Yang thought before he found himself being lifted off the ground. "You are coming with me." Faul didn't give Yin and Yang any choice and lifted him off the ground before taking flight from the area, heading deep into the mountains. Others didn't know what was going on between the two who were fighting earlier, as they no longer heard any fighting going on between them. Phil knew that Faul had left with Yin and Yang because he could no longer
Yin And Yang
Faul carried Phil back to the camp at a fast pace, with the other two tagging along behind him. The journey was a quiet one. Faul felt depressed—if he had arrived any later, his friends might have been dead. Meanwhile, the others worried that maybe Faul was angry with them for being too weak. He had simply picked up Phil and left without saying a word. Faul was never someone who knew how to express himself—except with his sword when he was pissed off. They snuck into the camp through the back and found that everyone was fast asleep. Faul laid Phil down in his corner and then went to his own spot without saying anything to the others. They were all worried—wondering if their long-standing friendship might break apart in a single night. “What were they even doing in the woods at that time?” “Were they following me?” Faul had a lot on his mind and couldn’t sleep all night. The following morning, they were awakened by the clang of a metal pot. Faul noticed the two had bags under thei
Instant Kill
Faul sneaked out of the camp through the back of the tent and went into the woods to hunt for food, as recently, eating normal human food no longer quenched his hunger. Unbeknownst to him, Phil opened his eyes and followed closely behind. He was quietly tailing Faul, not caring if anyone saw him leaving the camp. Of course, he was seen by both Ralph and Harry, who also sneaked out of the camp, following the two into the woods. "What do you think these two are going into the woods to do at this time of night?" Ralph couldn’t help but wonder as they continued to follow the two. "That, I don’t know. We’ll just keep following them quietly and find out soon enough," Harry replied, walking cautiously as they trailed behind Phil, who strolled leisurely through the woods. They still found it hard to believe what Faul had told them earlier about being a reincarnated dragon. Although he had shown them his true form by entering their minds, it all still felt like just a dream. They continued
Hunting Game
Faul went ahead to tell them who he was, and how he was reincarnated into this world. He also explained what Phil had become and what he could be. Then, he told them about his mission and revealed the true culprit behind the Red Death. He finally asked if they would fight alongside him to end it. After spending hours within their minds, the two teenagers couldn't help but pledge allegiance to Faul, vowing to become his blood brothers and fight with him. When they returned from wherever their minds had taken them, they discovered that the hours they spent inside had only been a few minutes in the real world. They were still lying on their beds. They closed their eyes and drifted to sleep, praying for a good start to the next day — the beginning of the hunting game. The entire Silver Knight class at the Alora Knight Academy was preparing for the upcoming hunting game, scheduled to take place in a week. Before the game, the knights had to be assessed in various areas to determine how
Demonic Angel
From day to day, Phil never left Faul’s side, which had already started to bug Faul himself. He didn’t want others to think Phil had lost his mind. Even though Faul didn’t want to believe the stories about a wyvern, he decided to test things out with Phil—to know if it was true and whether Phil had become one. On a fateful day, Faul took Phil into the training quarters to clarify his doubts. “Are we here to train? Because I’d like to test my strength against you,” Phil asked excitedly. “Phil, you will test it out. But right now, I need to clarify something.” Faul sat down cross-legged, looking directly at Phil, who stood there cluelessly. “Can you fight for me, Phil? How much will you risk to protect me?” That question triggered something in Phil, and he knelt on one knee. “Yes! I can fight for you, whenever and wherever. I will risk my life and everything I have to protect you, master!” Phil bowed before Faul, showing his allegiance. The answer wasn’t much of a surprise to Fau
Phil's New Strength
Some die-hard fans of the fight knew almost every contestant far beyond the arena, as they kept a close tab on people who might one day join. But no one knew who the new contestant was. His name was simply unknown. Even Faul and the other two wondered why Phil chose such a name. "The Battalion Demolisher? That name is too powerful for someone like Phil. Just the name alone will only get him into more trouble," Harry said, unable to help the pity he felt for his dear friend who seemed ready to lose his life trying to prove nothing. Every day, the arena hosted a maximum of three fights to entertain the people—and to make lots of money, as many would bet on who would win or lose. Today, many had placed their bets based on the odds and the strength of the fighters. Phil's odds were the highest anyone had ever seen since the arena’s inception. Phil had ten-to-two odds of winning. This made many people laugh at the new “Battalion Demolisher,” and no one placed a single bet on him.
New Contestant
A few weeks after the incident with the four friends, things finally returned to normal. During those past weeks, they had been on a silent break, with Phil being the only mediator since he had no issue with anyone. However, Harry and Ralph no longer talked to Faul. They knew he was hiding something and had expected him to open up, but he never did. Eventually, they decided to let it go. They concluded that they would give Faul space and just hoped he would tell them everything when the time was right. But over the past few weeks, Harry and Ralph noticed some changes in Phil. His slight change in appearance, his sudden confidence—it made them worry. They feared he might have been infected during the attack in the woods. Faul, however, knew exactly what was happening. Saving Phil’s life had changed him. He realized it the moment Phil woke up. The magic Faul had used on him had tampered with his being, and if care wasn’t taken, Phil might no longer remain human. Faul knew something l
