Lilith paused, then after thinking for a while, a frown formed on her face. She did not expect things to turn out like this when she stepped into school, if she had predicted this — then, she would have not walked in! "Hey!" Lilith called Arthur before he walked too far away, then beaconed him to slow down. In the next second, she sighed before walking up to him. "Well, if we're going to beat the monster, where do we find it? Some hidden building, or is it going to jump us in an ambush attempt?" Lilith began to ramble as she and Arthur began to walk further, "How strong is it?" "Well, from the vibe it gave and since no domain was set up here, it should be nothing more than Level 10 which would be very good for the two of us." Arthur dropped his awkward smile, "Even more so, for me." Not only were monsters with domains over ten times more conversant with Qi than those without it — they were also stronger and faster than regular monster on their level once within their domain! "W
"Hmm? Someone leaked Arthur's existence to most of the underground guilds, and just two of you showed a keen interest in him?" Celicia clicked her tongue and stood up from the ground with a frown on her face. "He's my son you know, a fine boy I raised up alone in this cruel world. Although you were to weak to unlock my backstory, I can manage letting you go back and make a report to your boss." Celicia crouched down with a smile to stare at Layla dead in the eyes. "You should tell him that an advanced warlock already has him in her grasp, and wouldn't release him without a good fight." Celicia helped Layla up, then ushered her to the gates, "Take your friend, and get out." Until Layla was helped to the gates, she didn't seem to be conscious at all! She'd just spaced out from the shock, and froze in fear as her brain completely went off into dead boot without waking up completely. "I'll only count to ten…" Before Celicia even opened her mouth to speak, the prepared Layla disappe
Arthur and Lilith took the elevator down to reach the ground floor of the main building. After they had left, a badly beaten up Bran crawled after them and stood up to his feet swearing furiously. Soon, he staggered his way to his class while he kept his mind focused on what lie he would use in dodging his teachers attacks. Numerous thoughts came to him as he moved, and be welcomed them all with a smile. After the two had taken the spare books brought to them by Lililth's driver, Arthur and Lilith split ways for their differing classes. Only, Arthur approached the main building whilst Lilith branched. Lilith entered another building exclusively for mages and archers, and locked out to Arthur. Although they allowed other class students in once in a while, it was mostly for those two classes. Arthur sighed as he held the small bag and walked back into the main building, and back into the large elevator to the floor his class was on — the fifth floor which was just above that of
Arthur walked back to class and took his seat calmly without saying a word. The class was now bustling as the numerous students began to gist and chat as they waited for the next teacher. Arthur didn't draw again, he simply sat back to watch how the class went without paying much attention to what was actually going on. After a while, he shut his eyes and began to cultivate his Qi. "If I can manage raising my Qi and strengthening my body to a certain level before going home, I would try training with mother again." Arthur frowned as soon as the thought crossed his mind. —— "All done." Celicia tossed the pieces of metal into the trashcan, dusted her hands then turned back to face the door, "I'll call someone to fix the door soon, I can not leave it like this for long." Celicia shook her head, then went to grab her phone which she'd dropped on a bench she'd carried outside to sit on. After picking up the phone, she double taps to wake, then after clicking the dialer applicati
“Boom Boom Boom!” Arthur blocked the three blows with this right hand, and in the next second he countered the attack with a powerful kick delivered to the side of Jacob's stomach without hesitation. The attack blasted the boy to the side, forcing Jacob to stagger backwards until he managed to get himself stabilized, and after gaining enough strength in his legs he dashed forward with all his might. “Bang!” Arthur's leg connected with Jacob's fist, and the two were blown back by the powerful shockwave that was created from that attack. Although Arthur did spare Jacob anymore time to think. Arthur disappeared, then appeared right in front of the stunned Jacob. Before the stunned male braced himself, Arthur punched him in the face, then kneed him in the guts before giving him a headbutt. Jacob's eyes never lost focus even after the powerful headbutt, he clenched his fists then dragged his head which was falling back up to headbutt Arthur back. In that moment, he grabbed Art
The school closed without anything much going on, and Arthur waited by the gate for Lilith after he had exited his class. He didn't even bother with the poor guy called Jacob as he had not won fair and square. If he'd not used such an underhanded twist of his own rules, then he would have dragged out that battle for a longer time than what was required. Despite this, they still managed to close everything in time. "I should be able to take one or two hits from mother like this — maybe she can help me train the [TK TK TK] skill and advise me on a stable path to choose in sync with the Destroyer path." Arthur thought with a frown on his face as he bowed his head. While he was busy dissecting the issue in his head, a second thought flew right over his head again, and his eyes narrowed down to slits as he descended deeper in his thoughts, "Should I really let Lilith come over again? Leaving a fact that the others would begin getting the wrong idea aside, I should think more on if it'
"They have already attacked the main castle. I do not believe this is the work of the—" "That's enough! I'll go to her aid, and destroy all of his pathetic forces before any harms comes to her." "It's not that, but—" "I wouldn't hear another word from you— we have to move now, and rescue her from those backstabbers!" A tall golden haired man pulled the reins of his horse and clicked his tongue, ordering it to march on faster as he dusted his escort trying to rush forward. All the man could think about was one woman. His guards and a few trusted commanders, stared at one another before shrugging helplessly and chasing after him without a choice. As soon as they caught up to him, everyone slowed down for a while. The most trusted of his escort, one huge man with his skin radiant as bronze and emerald eyes deep as the sea, paced side-by-side with Arthur so he could have the chance to speak to him, "Your father has already grabbed a few more of them for his stupid test, more drago
"Something seems a bit off about this door, doesn't it Lilith?" Arthur scrutinized the door with a frown on his face, sizing it up and scanning it in search for a single malfunction before sighing deeply. "Huh? You must be hallucinating, just knock already and let's get inside." Lilith rolled her eyes at Arthur's sudden ‘paranoia’ before walking up to the door and knocking on it by herself, "See? Nothing happened." "It's not about anything happening, I just feel strange looking at the door. It's as if someone had tampered with it…" Arthur wondered out loud as he stepped in after Lilith, then shrugged off the thoughts. "Ah, you're both back again." Celicia had a wide smile on her face as she stepped outside the kitchen just to greet the two. After she'd done that, she went back to work and completely ignored them. "Mom, did anything happen while we were away? You didn't break down the door by accident did you?" His eyes gleamed the second the noticed his mother was consciously
"Hehe, the idiot must have noticed the death of his followers by now and must have understood that his target is being assisted by a powerful entity." Rylex chuckled to herself. Her face was vibrant and she was brimming with energy and excitement. "…" Syx turned her head to face Rylex, staring at the side of the goddess's face. Her glowing eyes flashed as she collapsed into the sea of thought, and in a flash, her expression went blank. "It won't be long until he starts to feed me more of his stronger followers, each of them as a probe to guage my strength." Rylex rolled her eyes with a sneer, her aura was shrouded with arrogance and pride, "Unless some elder god were to make their move, even the god of death himself would he unable to stop me." She was a bit pumped, and it showed with her not even trying to hide it. After a few seconds, she was finally able to calm herself and pick up her speech. "If not for my inability to leave Jack here and just—" Rylex paused, her brows furr
"Is she doing okay now? The monsters have already been cleared out, and your father is probably awake now." Luke said as he sat besides Fay who was watching Meng sleep.Fay sighed before turning to face Luke with a bright smile on her face. "Meng Meng's doing fine for a fairy her age. She'll be up in a day or two." Fay answered as she grabbed Meng's little hand.Luke smiled broadly before rising up, and looking outside through the open window. His eyes narrowed as it locked upon the silhouette of a creature watching them from afar."Say, what actually made you guys to remain here instead of heading back home." Luke looked over his shoulder to Fay and asked."That's top secret, but I think you should know." Fay sighed heavily before continuing with a frown, "There's a powerful universal weapon hidden here in the capital. was found by Meng and I after stumbling on a secret dimensional portal inside one of the hidden castle rooms.""Would you mind telling me what you saw in the dimensio
Luke hunched over, panting as his eyes swept across the bloodied battlefield before locking on the the dead body of the almighty dimensional phatom stone golem.[You have surprisingly been true to your words before a lower-lifeform!][Royal Charm Instant Rank Up!][Respect +10]"Damn, after all that honesty, I didn't get a new skill? Why is this system wicked to me all of a sudden? Who cares about levelling up? I have !" Luke muttered before straightening his back with a slight frown on his face as he let out a low sigh. Before Luke was badly mutilated body of the dimensional stone phatom golem which lay motionless on the ground alongside it's dead minions. "He actually defeated that dreadful dimensional monster, and even had been toying with it this whole time!" "That prince actually didn't move! He really subdued the powerful monster without moving from the spot!""Almighty prince Luke, almighty elven god! Invincibility under the heavens!"The awe-filled cheers of the human soldi
Mylos clung unto the walls of a tall building, gazing past the massive fence to view the plethora of houses before him. With his demonic vision, he was able to see objects metres away as if they were just an inch away from him. "Just a few hunters patrolling by that alley to the west. I should be able to avoid them if I'm careful. What I need now is a place to stay the night." Mylos spoke softly with his head bowed in thought, and brows knitted. In his bag, he had some “credits” which humans deemed useful for transactions. He calculated having enough for more than a few months of rent, but decided on paying for just a few nights since he would be mobile. "I can also last some weeks more without any food, but I'll be forced to find a meal if I get too weak from these hunger pangs." Mylos frowned, then he shook his head and clenched his right fist, "Let me get away from here." As soon as Mylos clenched his fingers digging into the wall into a fist, he crushed a part of the wall
A young boy ran briskly through a forest with a frown on his extremely handsome face. He was wearing a plain black hoodie with the hood pulled over his head to cover his hair. Strapped to the side of waist was a sword still in it's sheath. Everytime the boy's feet landed on the ground, he would appear metres away in the distance like a phantom without even leaving an afterimage. It was as if he was using a strange version of teleportation. Chasing after him was a blue haired girl on a bike were a crop top and a short shirt. A large claymore was strapped to her back, but it wasn't sheathed, boldly displaying it's blade. The dark grey blade of the claymore which was riddled with glowing green runes gave off an intimidating and dangerous vibe to whoever set their eyes on it. From the size alone, one could only imagine how powerful the wielder must be to have the ability to use it in a battle. The forest today was exceptionally quiet except for some tweets from the scarce birds f
"Sit." Mylos blinked, then sat down on the chair facing that of his father. He stared into the man's eyes, his brows were furrowed and shoulders tense. He seemed anxious, but did not give himself away with any strange action. "Father, I—" The Chaos Eminence waved his hand, causing Mylos to shut his mouth and look away. After he had given his son the signal to shut his mouth, the Chaos Eminence drops his hand and laid it upon the table between them. "Don't bother yourself…" The Chaos Eminence sighed as he closed his eyes and laid back in his seat, "A large number of them had attacked the building you told me you would hide in. I guess, that was a very smart move." "No father. This has gotten to something beyond what I am able to handle." Mylos cut in after listening to all his father had to say, his brows still furrowed as he was still in deep thoughts, "I believe you know what I saw there." The Chaos Eminence smiled warmly as he picked up a glass cup filled with water and
“Clang!” Dancing under the moonlight, the sparks of their blades clashing lit up the scattered shadows. Blood was sprayed all over the auditorium walls, and charred markings were blasted all over the exquisite ornate doors. Dead bodies lay on the ground — most mutilated, while some were burnt to a crisp. Their swords were shattered and their armour rent with claw marks over the metallic surface of the metal. “Clang!” In this blood soaked scenery. The duo clashed without a second of relent, their attacks and counterattacks looked perfectly synched — fluid and graceful, without a second of hesitation or stagger, nor a shred of relent. After seconds of clashing fiercely, they pulled away and gave some space for breathing. Finally, the faces of both swordsmen were revealed as the gleam of the moonlight shone on them. "Haha! Sword Eminences are truly annoying creatures, I don't even have the chance to breath." Standing in the moonlight with his head slightly bowed, he grinned
Mylos had gotten himself accustomed to the relentless attacks from demons. He believed that they were drawn to his hidden ability somewhat, and must want it for their worthless selves. He could do nothing about it. "I have been promised ten thousand gold Yreo for your wretched head, youngling. It's a shame I was too late in reaching you, or you would have made me easy gold to last more than a few years." Mylos smirked coldly as he held his sword, not making a move as he scrutinized his opponent. Alas, his little head carried a heavy bounty which numerous hunters gunned for despite his status and reputation. For that only, he'd been constantly attacked by troupes of hunters in unison with the demons after his ability. He had never been allowed to rest with their targets behind him, and had been killing attackers left and right. Although he never thought that the demons would also gain a reward for hunting him. He believed that only the hunters from other dumb races were after his
Silence. The winds were agitated, and so were the steeds risen by the Imperial Flame Army. The vast plains was shrouded in an icy mist, and one could spot a few decapitated bodies scattered throughout the battlefield with a few limbs torn off. Holding the reins of his humble steed, Yin Huo who wore an emotionless mask, cast his gaze over the vast horizons. After a few seconds, he finally stabilised his armoured stallion was. "Esteemed Southern Commander, Yin Hou! We have already received estimates of the enemy's total forces." A short and stout bearded man who rode a dark stallion inched over and whispered in Yin Hou's ears, "The army seem to be marching over in this direction…" Yin Huo paused. His emotionless eyes suddenly began to flicker with a righteous light, and from those short flickers were birthed wild flames. "Heh." Yin Hou opened his mouth to speak in a deep and cold voice, his gaze held over the vast horizons, the plains devoid of human life or activity.
