Kal and Varrick were looking at Ryder, they were shocked to see that the boy was still cultivating mana like it was something he would do normally. “This is pretty scary, how in the world was he able to break through the first seal and reach his dark blue mana core like this? This is something that needs to be studied.” Varrick was looking at Ryder, he was emitting energy that only people who were strong warriors would have. Kal laughed when he saw what Ryder was doing without even being aware. “I don't know about you but all I see is a warrior that is ready to dance with me, I want to see what he can do,” Kal said looking at Varrick, he was ready to face Ryder in the sparring match. “You better be careful, all we know this boy doesn't even know his strength. There is something about his abilities that is still not settling right with me.” Varrick was looking at Ryder, he didn't want his brother to lose his life all because of a foolish game he was going to be playing. “Don't worr
The three stepped outside for the match to begin, Ryder looked around and saw that they were deep in the heart of the forest and there were critters around there. Ryder could feel the mana in the area, he saw that everywhere was filled with magic and it was clear that there was a huge amount of mana there. “There is a huge amount of mana in the area, so I guess that all this is at the white mana core right?” Ryder looked at his master, he was waiting for Kal to tell him that he was right. “Well no, the area is filled with Light Blue Mana Core.” He paused to see a defeated look on Ryder's face. “Don't feel bad that you didn't get it right it's not the end of the world. They feel like white mana cores and act like it but that's one perk of the Sylvanmetran forests, they don't usually give off what they are, you see that way there is no one trying to cultivate the entire area for themselves.” Kal paused when they had reached a particular area, “This is a good spot, it has all the spa
Ryder was struggling to break free from the orb that he was trapped in, he didn't know how he was going to be able to find a way out of it. Then he heard a massive explosion, Ryder turned to see the smoke cloud forming where his house once stood, he was petrified when he realized that the cloud meant that his mother was no more and he was all that was left of his family. Tears welled up in Ryder's eyes, he was looking at the smoke cloud as they kept forming. “Mom, please no.” Ryder's words were cut with sobs, “I couldn't do anything to save her, even in this world I am a weak pathetic being.” Ryder sat down as the orb, carried him away from the scene looking at their house lying in destruction. The only thing Ryder could think of was his past life and when he was still a high schooler. He lived all his life running from everyone and everything, he didn't want to be part of anything. In his former life, he had the name Lucas, he was a frail child neglected by the older people and b
Ryder was looking at Kal, he didn't know what he would have imagined that there was a chance he would meet someone who knew his mother. Ryder was looking at Kal, he was trying to make sure that he didn't even make a mistake. “You knew my mother? You called her name, do you know her?” Kal rubbed his head, he didn't even know what he was going to do. He looked at the boy in front of him, he didn't know what he was going to do to make Ryder stop asking questions. “If you ask me any other questions I might blow my head away but there is no way for me to do that.” Kal looked at Ryder, he knew that boy was still confused and everything was happening all too fast. Ryder saw that Kal was a bit stressed out, he noticed that all his wounds were healed and closed. He was in good condition and he knew that the man in front of him might have been the one that made sure of that. “Sorry, I don't know what to do and it's been a strange ride for the past few hours for me. Please tell me how you k
It had been four months since Ryder had gone to Heio and discovered that he had a seal on his body, he had begun training with Kal and Varrick to ensure that he broke the remaining two seals on him. It had taken two months for Ryder to reach the intermediate sword master level and it was not easy for him but there was no way he would be seen as a normal warrior after he and Kal had been through the last four months. Both of them were sparring outside, the air was filled with the sound of their clashing blades. It was a hell of a spar, Ryder had improved to the extent that he could push Kal back to the wall. “You're getting better at welding your sword Ryder, I know in three months you will be a full-on sword warrior and nothing is going to be stopping you,” Kal said as he tried to land a blow on Ryder, but with everything he tried Ryder would react with a faster and stronger defense. “You keep saying that to boost my freaking ego knowing it might be working. I will get to your lev
After the past few days and the event that had happened. Keith knew that there was no way for him to even think of trying to corner Kylian, he was going to be playing a risky game with that one. He would not win and it might take his life in the process. “Not only is he crazy but he wants to make sure that there is no way he would be on the losing side of things.” Keith thought to himself, knowing there would be a war and he would be the center of it all. ‘I have to make sure that there is no way they would do anything to the Valley, I also need to make sure that nothing is going to make me think of leaving Noelle and Bishep in the open.” Keith was thinking of something that would help him ensure that none of them would be hurt no matter what happened. Kylian was not going to let Keith even think of backing down from anything he was planning to do, the attacks he had always sent were coordinated and it always looked like he was trying to make sure that there was no way for Keith to
Back at the valley everyone was trying to make sure prepartions trying to make sure that everything was okay for Keirh to come and take his throne. “I heard what happened to Elder Efron, so Kylian is back and trying to make everyone fear him like that.” One of the servants spoke up, he was making sure that there was nothing bad about the throne room. “You know, I heard that too. I can't believe that he will go as far as mutilating him but what in the world is his deal?” The other servant was looking at his partner as he waited for him to tell him the main part of the story no one would tell him. Some of the servants never knew what the main issue was between Keirh and Kylian all they knew was that they were not the best of friends. “You know, I heard that it goes way back to when Lord Keith was still a warrior in the ranks. He was not someone that you would want to mess with but you see there was a time that they were inseparable.” “And I thought they said that all the guards we
The entire Valley had been hearing the news of Keith facing Kylian in MetroVille but they all thought it was something that no one would even want to be part of. The grandmaster had to look for a way to make sure that nothing was going to make them fall into the trap that was Kylian’s doing. “Lord Falco was one of the worst things to ever happen to the Valley, his son was an embodiment of horror and he was terrible, this was before he was even being considered as the next Lord after his father. But now I thank the heavens that we never got to make that decision,” Elder Aron spoke up, they were having a meeting to discuss how things were going in the valley and it was not looking smooth not one bit. “You know, I thought Lord Keith would have the opportunity to come back with no problems but hearing that he has to be facing that man means he will not be able to come back anytime soon. But coming to think of it, how on earth is he even going to have the chance to come back here if Kyli
