Clang! Clang!! Clang!!! The metal clanging sound awaken everyone in the academy. “Not this again, why can't someone rest well before being awakened by this annoying sound.", Phil thought as he sluggishly climbed down from his bed. "Everyone move to the training field". the guards instructed everyone. " Wait...since we don't know where the training field ts how do we get there?", Faul asked the guard who was about to leave. "Follow the yellow line, it will lead you to the training field". the knight said and left. "Sure enough, let's go guys.”. Harry said pulling others out of the room as they started heading to the training field. The four boys followed the yellow line as instructed by the guard and arrived at the training field. The field contained thousands of students who are out there for morning training. "Wooo... Woo... You mean all these people are recruits?", Phil asked surprisingly upon seeing lots of people in the training field. "Dumbass... Some of them are golde
The recruits were over a hundred in number and they were all gathered in the trial room for the trial to begin. Donald and the other five knights were present in the room. The recruit knights were gathered all together and are waiting for instructions. "Listen up everyone... This recruit trial is orpanized so you will be assigned to your categories in the silver level of the knighthood. "We have different categories and each category is not more important than the other but always know that the benefits are different so work hard.". Donald instructed. "We have four categories in the knighthood: Earth, fire, air. and water. Each one represents something entirely different from the other and is all equally important. Each category is headed by a knight so do well.". Wilfred said and sat down. The recruits were asked to queue up for the trial to begin The first trail started with harnessing their gi to make a sound on a large bell. "Listen up everyone... The first trial will be ri
The recruits were taken into another part of the building for the second phase of the trial. The building was large and rectangular and at the center, there lies a large circular stone. The recruits were wondering what the trial will be like this time. They were all asked to queue up and get ready for the trial which will commence soon. The knights arrived one after the other most of them staring at Faul's group. "Everyone pay attention! All you need to do is very simple. You just need to push that rock over there to the finish line at the end of the room." Donald instructed. "You just need to enhance your strength with your qi and push that rock. Without that you can't achieve it.", Wilfred added as the knights sat down. The trial began immediately with everyone attempting to move the stone. Some succeeded in moving the stone to the finish line with difficulty while some couldn't complete the task. "I'm Morbius... I saw how well you and your friends performed in the bell tria
The recruits were led to the third phase stage of the trial. The room was very wide and a man in a Black cloak was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the room. His face was bent toward the ground and no one could see his face. The recruits lined up as usual waiting for instructions from the knights but none of them took their eyes off the man sitting at the center of the room. "Listen up everyone... Here, this phase checks on your sword skills and how fast you are learning. You just need to follow the steps of the assassin knight after his demonstration. So pay close attention to his footsteps and skills displayed". Donald said giving the signal for the trial to begin. "Yes sir!", The recruits shouted in unison. The man at the center of the room stood tall and started demonstrating different skills over and over for the recruits to grab steps and skills. After the little demonstration from the assassin knight. The recruits were put up to trial one after another. Most of the
The recruits and the knights were all discussing the incident that took place in the third phase of the trial where faul refused to particle in the trial. The hnights kept discussing the incident because it is rare for such an incident to occur. "Hey... What happened why didnt you participate in the trial?". Phil whispered in Fautl’s ear. "| didn't see any reason to because those ace skills I know very well.", Faul replied as they kept walking towards the room for the final phase of the trial. The last trial is called the Pagoda fire of nine realms. The trial is called so because a participant is expected to enter the chamber and lit up the fire as long they have the potential to hold a large amount of gi. The chamber fs a circular stcucture that looks like the ancient Pagoda of the heavens. When the individual manages to light up the fice. they are unlochino what is called the first stage of gi instantly but otherwise. the participant will have to go through hard training to unloc
George left the room with anger and shame. He no longer has the face to stay and watch the trial with the others. “Who is that damn kid? Is he a mage? How is he able to talk directly into my mind?”. George thought. Initially, he wanted to call him out but on second thought he knew no one would believe him. Morbius knew at the moment he was no match for Faul but he still have a plan on how to deal with him later. "He's too fast and strong to be able to counter a Sapphire knight. Who is this guy?". Morbius thought, a shiver running down his spine. Donald was staring at Faul with curiosity all over his face. Faul was just too fast compared to his age, he defended himself against a Sapphire knight and even counter-attacked in return. That’s something even a golden knight cannot do not talk of a person yet to be trained as a knight. The commotion caused by the fight between Faul and George sparked a commotion that took a very long time to calm down. "Alright everyone, now it’s time
The trial came to an end with an extraordinary occurrence. A recruit almost defeating a Sapphire knight. That same recruit survived a mighty fire in the Pagoda chamber. From the day the recruits were selected things have been happening. Right from the training camp till they got to Alora. Faul has been out cold for a few days but he is not dead. Everyone kept talking about him, even those at the higher level have also heard about the strange boy that almost defeated a Sapphire knight. Some were already making plans on how to beat him. The title of being the strongest and most skillful has been something that exists ever since Alora knight academy has been. So, when they heard about the boy that almost defeated a Sapphire knight, they all want to be the one to defeat him. "Why is this so hard to fully absorb this power, this weak body is a hindrance to me", Faul thought as he was struggling to fully absorb his brother's essence. Faul has been sweating non-stop for days. The nurses
Immediately after Donald left the clinic Faul opened his weak eyes which were still a little blurry. He sat up gently on the bed holding his head that was banging like the city hall bell. "I must have been out for some time. I can feel it. Faul was in the middle of his thought and the doctor entered the clinic. "Hey kiddo. you are awake. You're really a heavy sleeper. You've been out for five days in a row.". The doctor said heading over to Faul's position. He checked his temperature and his pulse which all seem very normal compared to when he was unconscious. "Your friends are really worried about you, you should go let them know you are all okay now. More importantly, take care of yourself not to be like this again.". The doctor said and he gave Faul a few portions he will take later and ushered him to the door. "Only if you understand what I'm going through trying to get stronger to save this world.", Faul thought as he left the clinic. Faul continued walking down the passage
The Red Dragon Escort Cavalry has been aname 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 will tremble to the extent that each task that they show interest in was left alone by all other escort cavalries. But despite all the fame and glory, even amighty cavalry like the Red Dragon Escort Cavalry has its problems but it is something that Billie can't handle. Controlling five magic powers and controlling them with perfection is athing many are envious of but no one has the gut to let Billie know of that. Billie is someone who is kind but doesn't toler ate any nonsense. At his age, he is the leader of amighty 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 left Faul into the hands of Alfred, he embarked on his own jour
Faul was utterly surprised by what Yin and Yang said, but he just can'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 from 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 more 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 a flight off from the area heading deep Into the mountains Others don't know what was going on between the two that were fighting earlier as they no longer hear any fighting going on between them. Phil knew that Faul have left with Yin and Yang because he could no longer f
Faul carried Phil heading to the camp at a fast pace and the other two were tagging along. The journey was a quiet one, Faul was depressed that his friends would have ended up dead if he was a bit late to the scene. And the others were thinking that maybe Faul was angry with them for being too weak. Because he just carried Phil and left without saying anything. Faul has never been someone who knows how to express himself except with his sword when he is pissed off. They snuck into the camp through the back and found out that everyone was fast asleep. Faul laid Phil down at his corner and simply lay down at his corner without saying a thing to the others. They were worried about what might happen tomorrow if their relationship that has lasted for so long will just break up just like this in one night. "What were they even doing in the woods by that time?” " Are they following me?" Faul has alot on his mind and he couldn't sleep throughout the night. The following morning they wer
Faul sneaked out of the camp through the back of the tent and went into the wood to hunt for food because recently eating normal human food no longer quench his hunger. Having left the camp Phil opened his eyes and followed him closely behind, he was just following Faul behind quietly not minding if he was seen leaving the camp and of course he was seen by both Ralph and Harry who sneaked out of the camp also following the two into the woods. "What do you think these two might be entering into the woods to do by this time of the night?", Ralph couldn't help but wonder as they continued following the two behind. "That I don't know, we can just be following them quietly and we will find out then" Harry replied walking quietly as they trail behind Phil who was just walking leisurely in the woods. The two still found it hard to believe what Faul told them before about him being a reincarnated dragon although he showed them his real self when he entered their mind but they just couldn
Faul went ahead to tell them who he is, and how he was reincarnated into this world. He also went ahead to tell them about what Phil has turned into and how he can be . He went ahead to tell them what his mission is and who the real culprit of the red death is. He went ahead to ask if they will fight with him to end the red death. After staying in their minds for hours the two teenagers can't help but pledge allegiance to Faul to become his blood brothers and fight with him. As they came from wherever they were in their minds they found out that the hours they spent in their minds were just afew minutes on the outside world as they still found themselves still lying down on the bed. They closed their eyes and slept praying for the next day that was the beginning of the hunting game tobe good for them. The whole silver knight class in the Alora knight academy was preparing for the coming hunting game which will be held in a week. But before then the knights need to be accessed in v
From day to day, Phil never leaves Faul's side which has already started bugging Faul himself that he doesn't want others to think that Phil has lost his mind. Even though that Faul doesn't want to believe the stories of a wyvern, he decided to try it out with Phil to know if it is true and whether Phil has become one. On a faithful day, Faul took Phil into the training quarters to clarify his doubts about Phil. "Are we here to train? Because I will like to test out my strength against you", Phil asked excitedly. "Phil, you will test it out but now I want to clarify something.", Faul sat down cross-legged looking directly at Phil who was just standing cluelessly. “Can you fight for me, Phil? How much will you risk to protect me.", This question Faul asked 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 answ
Some die-hard fans of the fight knew almost every contestant far and beyond the arena as they keep a close tab on people who might join the arena but no one knew who the contestant is. His name is just not known at all. Even Faul and the other two were wondering why Phil took on such a name. "The battalion demolisher, that name is too powerful for a person like Phil, the name alone will only put him into more trouble.", Harry can't help but took pity on his dear friend on how he is going to lose his life trying to prove nothing. Every day the arena holds a maximum of three fights to entertain the people and they make lots of money as many people will bet on who will win or lose. And today many people have placed their bet according to the odds and how strong the fighter is. Phil's odd was the highest odd people have ever seen so far since the inception of the arena. Phil has seventy odds to win, this made lots of people laugh at the new battalion demolisher, and no one betted on
A few weeks after the incident with the four friends, things finally returned to normal. Those past weeks they have been on asilent break, the only mediator was Phil who has no issue with any of them but Harry and Ralph don't talk to Faul anymore. They knew he was hiding something and they were expecting him to open up to them but he didn't after all this time. At some point they made up their mind to let it go, they concluded to let Faul be. They just hoped that he will tell them everything when the time is right. But these few weeks Harry and Ralph noticed that something has changed in Phil. With his slight change in appearance, sudden confidence, and they were worried if he got infected during the attack in the woods. F aul knew exactly what it was, saving his life has changed Phil, he knew that from the moment Phil woke up. The magic Faul used on him tampered with his being and if care is not taken Phil might not be human anymore. Faul knew something like this might happen bec
