The dining area was a bustling hub of activity, filled with the clinking of cutlery and the murmur of conversation. People exchanged news and gossip in low voices, creating a lively but intimate atmosphere.

Oasis sat, eating with enthusiasm, his senses heightened by his recent breakthrough. He could hear fragments of conversations from all around, including the discussion about Barnabus the Slayer, which caught his attention.

The two men their hushed conversation. "It's terrifying. I can't believe he's back," one of them said, his voice barely above a whisper. The other nodded grimly. "We need to be careful."

As Oasis listened, intrigued and disturbed by their words, the door to the dining area swung open. Sir Elias entered, fresh from his journey back from Mossy Hollow. His eyes scanned the room until they landed on Oasis.

"Is that Oasis?" Sir Elias thought, noticing a significant change in the young man's demeanor. As he walked closer, he sensed something different about Oasis—an au

    As Oasis dashed through the forest, the verdant foliage blurred past him in a rush of green.His movements were swift and fluid, aided by the power of his wind magic.With each step, he propelled himself forward with remarkable speed, effortlessly navigating through the dense undergrowth."Wow, I can move much faster than before," Oasis marveled to himself, exhilarated by the newfound agility granted by his magical abilities.The wind whistled past his ears as he darted through the forest, his senses heightened and his focus keen.However, amidst his rapid movement, Oasis's acute senses detected something amiss.His ears pricked up at the faint sounds of movement nearby, alerting him to potential danger lurking in the vicinity."I can hear movements," Oasis thought, his senses on high alert as he cautiously continued forward.With each step, he treaded carefully, his eyes scanning the surrounding foliage for any signs of danger.After a few more meters, Oasis reached a clearing in the

"My power feels way stronger, but I need to maintain control. And it seems I can no longer use water magic." His mind buzzed with questions and possibilities.He stood up, the realization of his newfound strength both exciting and daunting. "It's time to get moving," he resolved, tucking the beast cores into his storage bracelet.With a deep breath, he began to dash through the forest, using his wind magic to move swiftly and silently.The dense foliage and towering trees blurred past him a

    As Oasis and Amilia continued talking under the moonlight, the scene around them was serene and enchanting.The moon cast a gentle, silver glow over the forest, creating intricate patterns of light and shadow on the ground. The fire between them flickered warmly, casting a golden light on their faces and reflecting in their eyes.Amilia broke the silence, her voice thoughtful. "You've changed a lot in these past few weeks."Oasis shrugged, trying to play it cool. "Just some training," he said, poking the fire with a stick to keep the flames alive. "What about you? How's the exam treating you so far?"Amilia chuckled softly, a musical sound that seemed to blend with the crackling of the fire. "Challenging, as expected. But that's what makes it exciting, right?" She looked around their little clearing, taking in the serene atmosphere. "This is a good spot you've found."Oasis nodded, glad for the compliment. "Yeah, it's peaceful here. Makes it easier to relax."He took a moment to appre

    A few hours before...Zane and a few participants worked together to chase away a group of goblins, breathing heavily from the exertion. The forest was quiet except for their labored breaths and the occasional rustle of leaves."Ha ha ha, if it isn't the little pup of the Bluemoon family," a voice called out from the woods, dripping with mockery. The voice approached slowly, each step echoing with arrogance."You court death," Zane retorted, his eyes narrowing as he tried to pinpoint the source of the voice."Ha ha ha, I'm the mighty Agni, the genius of the Ignis family!" Agni Ignis appeared, his aura radiating confidence as he sauntered towards Zane and the group."You bunch are sweating just from chasing some goblins," Agni taunted, a prideful smirk plastered on his face.His expression was one of utter disdain, his eyes gleaming with self-assured superiority. "I, the mighty Agni, have managed to kill about five of these weaklings ever since this exam started. Ha ha ha!"Zane clenche

    "Moonlight Technique: Fourth Form - Niflheim!" they chanted together.A blinding light enveloped the area as icy winds swirled around the bear.The ground beneath it froze, and its lower body was encased in thick ice, immobilizing it temporarily. The temperature dropped sharply, and the surrounding area was cloaked in an eerie, cold mist.Agni, Mira, and Bazel wasted no time. "Fire Magic: Hell Inferno!" Agni shouted, launching a torrent of flames at the beast.Mira followed with "Fire Magic: Burning Sun!" sending a concentrated blast of fire, while Bazel unleashed "Fire Magic: Dragon's Breath!" a stream of searing flames.The combined fire spells collided with the frozen bear, creating a spectacular display of elemental power.The area lit up with the intense glow of the flames, but despite their best efforts, the bear remained unscathed, its thick hide absorbing the attacks.Zane transformed, his body morphing into a powerful wolf form."Beast Transformation Technique: Wolf Monarch!"

Some stumbled out, exhausted and injured, while others held their heads high, their expressions a mixture of relief and pride."Help! Help! Oasis isn't waking up!" Mira's desperate scream cut through the noise.She cradled Oasis in her arms, his body limp and unresponsive. Her face was pale with fear, sweat dripping down her brow as she struggled to keep him upright.In a flash, before anyone could react, Conri Bluemoon, the leader of the Bluemoon family, v

    In the Manor of the Bluemoon Family...The hallway of the Bluemoon manor was dimly lit, with the flickering flames of the wall sconces casting shadows on the intricately carved wooden walls.The air was thick with tension and concern as two figures conversed in hushed tones."How is his condition now, Duncan?" Conri Bluemoon, the patriarch of the Bluemoon family, asked, his voice low and anxious."He is still burning and unconscious," responded Duncan, the great alchemist from the Bluemoon family, his face etched with worry. "It's already been a week, and the kid has not woken up."Conri's expression darkened. Just then, Zane entered the hallway, his face pale with concern. "I just came from his room. He is still the same, Father," he reported."Is his master still around?" Conri inquired."No, Father," Zane replied, shaking his head. "He went back to Mossy Hollow and said he would pick up Oasis's sister."Conri sighed deeply. "Oh well, let's wait and see how your friend does.""But Ma

    Pervard’s mind raced as he recalled everything he knew about the Phoenix Clan."Most people might be ignorant about it, but I’ve read on hidden archives about the Volacris family in the Phoenix Clan.""Our Crimson Hand is in deep trouble. I should’ve been allowed to kill myself. My master would’ve known the moment I died."He grit his teeth in frustration, realizing that even biting his tongue wouldn’t end his life due to his advanced cultivation."We’re doomed..." Sweat dripped down Pervard’s face, and fear crept into his heart—a fear that had not been evident earlier.As the speech ended and the mood among the servants lightened with relief, Oasis instructed his guards.“You two, come with me.”The city lord went to reunite with his children, but Oasis made his way to the basement, where Rex and Pervard were held.Both men were suspended, their hands chained to the ceiling and their feet hanging limply.Oasis’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Rex, who was still feigning unconsciousnes

    He advanced on Pervard, his aura flaring with renewed intensity, prepared to deliver the final blow.Pervard, blinded by rage and fear, roared as he threw everything he had into one last desperate attack, but his movements were wild and unfocused.Riftain easily dodged, stepping inside Pervard’s guard and delivering a devastating strike to his chest.The impact sent Pervard crashing into the ground, his body convulsing from the blow.Thud. Thud. Thud.Pervard's chest heaved as he coughed blood, his body barely able to keep itself upright.Riftain advanced toward him, his eyes cold with the intent to end it all, prepared to deliver the final blow.Pervard, blinded by pain and rage, could barely comprehend what had just happened."How did he get this strong?" Pervard thought, blood seeping from his mouth."We were almost of equal strength. I’ve been active while he was sick..." He grimaced, spitting out more blood, his thoughts racing with confusion and despair.Oasis stood back, watchi

    The remaining lackeys began to panic, their techniques growing more desperate. One after another, they attacked, but Oasis was always one step ahead.A man with a curved blade aimed for Oasis’s head, but Oasis dodged with ease, delivering a spinning backfist that caved in the man’s skull.Another, a martial artist using fist techniques, charged forward, unleashing a flurry of punches.Oasis weaved through the blows with fluidity, stepping inside the man’s guard and breaking his arm before snapping his neck with a single, swift motion.Each of the lackeys fought with everything they had—one using fiery martial techniques, another enhancing his body with earth aura—but Oasis was untouchable.He moved like a ghost, anticipating every attack, countering with lethal precision.He dodged a fiery fist, and in the same breath, drove his elbow into the attacker’s spine, paralyzing him instantly.A man with twin daggers tried to slash at him, but Oasis caught his wrists, disarming him effortles

    The atmosphere in the manor shifted from tense anticipation to outright horror as Oasis stood over the five mangled bodies, his expression calm, almost indifferent.His hands and legs, not even stained with blood, were all it took to dispatch them.The shock of the scene silenced the onlookers—guards, servants, and even Pervard’s lackeys—all frozen in disbelief.“Is he really a mage?” a servant thought, trembling, her knees buckling under the weight of the spectacle.“How… how can a mage move like that?” one of the manor guards thought, sweat running down his face. “No mana, no spells… just raw strength and precision.”“I’ve never seen anyone fight like this, not even our strongest warriors,”another guard, drenched in sweat, trembled as he struggled to comprehend the sight.“It’s impossible. A mage should be relying on spells, not... this,” Alto thought, his eyes wide with fear. “How can he kill with just his bare hands?”Oasis’s own guards, who had been standing beside Raven, could h

    Pervard laughed loudly, looking up toward the ceiling as he shrugged off the upper part of his clothing, revealing a tattoo on his chest—a hand drenched in blood.One of the men behind him quickly stepped forward, draping a jacket over his shoulders.“Yes, I am Pervard, the executive of the Crimson Hand—the Cruel Hand,” Pervard declared, grinning as he soaked in the shocked reactions of the crowd.His tattoo glistened under the light as he spoke, “You may know my name, boy, but it won’t matter. You’ll die today, along with Riftain.”Riftain clenched his fists, fury coursing through him.“The Crimson Hand… these bastards. So, I’ve been harboring one in my own town this whole time.”“Pervard the Cruel Hand, huh? Thanks for making it easier to find you,” Oasis said coldly.In a swift motion, he unleashed an even stronger wind magic barrier, this time enveloping the entire manor.The gust of wind swept through the hall as the barrier sealed them inside.Gasps and whispers spread through t

    Back in the chamber, Oasis stood calmly in the wake of the city lord’s unleashed aura, completely unfazed.His azure eyes remained steady as he watched the older man with quiet respect.“Not bad,” Oasis thought, his expression unchanged, though inwardly he acknowledged the power being displayed.“Follow me, young man,” the city lord said, his voice now firm and commanding as he walked toward the door. “Let me show you how to deal with traitors.”As the city lord strode out of the room, Oasis followed at a measured pace.The two of them barely made it past the threshold when a group of guards came rushing down the corridor, their faces pale with fear.They skidded to a stop the moment they saw the city lord standing before them, fully revitalized.“My lord!” the guards gasped, immediately dropping to their knees, their bodies trembling from the pressure of his aura.Sweat dripped from their brows as they struggled to maintain their composure in his overwhelming presence.The city lord’

    Instantly, they melted into the shadows, ready to evade or strike if necessary.A guard descended the stairs, his form slowly becoming visible in the dim light.He was dressed like the others, but his demeanor was different.He wore the same uniform as the others in the manor, but something was different about him.As he approached the cell, the guards prepared to knock him out—until they saw him pull food from his pockets“It’s been a while, young lord Raven,” the man said quietly, his voice filled with respect.“How is father’s condition?” the boy, Raven, asked, his voice clear and strong despite the abuse he had endured."Still the same, young lord. His condition is declining," the guard replied, his voice laced with sorrow.As they spoke, Raven’s eyes flickered toward the shadows where Oasis’s guards were hidden.“What are you looking at, young lord?” the guard asked, sensing something amiss.“Nothing,” Raven replied calmly. “You should leave before the lackeys of that pig catch y

    Oasis moved silently through the shadows of the city lord’s residence, his steps light and precise, avoiding detection with ease.The mansion, though worn by neglect, had a complex layout.Guards patrolled in predictable patterns, moving along predetermined routes that Oasis had already observed using his spiritual senses.“Their movements are methodical, but uninspired,” Oasis thought as he studied the guards' routines.“The guards stationed near the entrance rotate every twenty minutes. The inner patrols are less frequent, giving me small windows to slip through.”As he moved, his azure eyes scanned the manor’s halls, catching subtle details—scuff marks on the floor indicating where guards commonly stood, and faint energy traces revealing where magical wards were placed.“The layout matches what I sensed earlier,” Oasis thought, gliding between two patrols with practiced ease.“Once I pass through this wing, the room where the city lord is bedridden should be up ahead.”Passing thr

    As Oasis sat in the inn with his guards, whispers began to ripple through the dimly lit room.Word of men distributing food and money had already reached the ears of the patrons, sparking quiet gossip."Did you hear? Some noble’s been handing out food and coins," one patron whispered to his companion, his voice low but full of curiosity."Yeah, I heard! Who’d do something like that in Riffridge? Must be someone from another town," another person murmured."Who are these people?" a woman muttered. "Could they be connected to the city lord?""Maybe they’re from Belvan. I heard rumors about nobles from that region," someone else suggested, cautiously glancing around.As the quiet chatter continued, Oasis stood up with his two guards, the candlelight flickering off their well-tailored clothing.They made their way toward the inn's counter. The room had grown darker, with the lamps now fully lit to mark the arrival of night."Can we have a room for the night?" Oasis asked calmly, his gaze
