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
"…" The room was as quiet as a graveyard as the two kept their lips sealed throughout the process. Arthur who had his hand laid upon Lilith's head, focused his Qi into his palm and encompassed her in it. The soft azure grow emitting from his hand following the process lit up his room in a blue radiance, leaving everything completely illuminated. As soon as Lililth got completely engulfed in the blue light, all her Qi paths were set ablaze in wild azure flames. It was a soothing feeling, although not as sensational as one would think it to be. It was just like the feeling one had from sleeping after being deprived of it for days or more. It was extremely refreshing. In contrast to Lilith's refreshments — Arthur had his face twisted into an ugly expression. He was silently exploring her paths to see the numerous wounds she inflicted on them. All were extremely ‘stunning’. Slowly, he began to revitalize them with his own Qi as he concentrated harder. Any mistake he made could
"You want to spar before going to school? You've got everything in place already, and eaten?" Celicia had a frowned on her face as she sized up her son, doubtful about what he had said to her. "Yes!" Arthur nodded as he took off his bag and gave it to Lilith who just watched silently, then cracked his neck and waved his head, "Should we take it outside or is it okay for us to—" Suddenly, all the hair on his body to stand on end as he raised his hand to shield his face without a second of time wasted talking. He focused all his Qi on his arms and braced himself. “Boom!” Arthur's eyes widened as he caught the sudden kick from his mother, causing his back to hunch over and his eyes to widen as the air in his lungs was knocked out! As soon as he'd blocked it, he dashed away. Celicia lowered her leg, then cracked her neck with a smile on her face, "You blocked it? Interesting. I can manage in here, as far as we both avoid the furniture." Just as she'd spoken, Celicia disappear
