Ace, Maggie, and Lela were taking a stroll on the streets of Lundar. It was a beautiful city famous for its views and its landmark, the colosseum. "Ahh!" The ex-assassin sighed in relief as he hangs his arms around his head. "After being involved in so many none-stop actions for weeks, it's nice to have a day of rest." He adds. From taking crypt trials to battling his brothers and going to see the Saints. Ace and the Aegis clan have been in the center of so many actions. "The body needs to rest, even if it's once in a while," Maggie adds. "I'm glad you invited me to join you on your stroll, Mags." Ace says with a broad smile on his face. "Oh don't mention it." She replies with a smile as well before glancing at the Dragon Saint who was eating a popsicle. "Even though you invited a 3rd party." "We still have the rest of the day before meeting up with the guys, what do you two want to do?" Ace asks. Maggie rubs her chin. "I wanted to have a date with him, now we have a third wh
"What!" "What do you mean we can't all participate!" The Aegis clan were currently about to register for the tournament. The woman sitting at the other side of the desk looked at them with an unfazed expression. "I'm sorry, those are the rules. A clan can have at most 5 participants for the tournament." Ace slammed his hands on the desk. "But..." "There is no but I'm afraid. Rules are rules. It was set this way to allow Braves that are not affiliated with clans and smaller clans to participate. The requirement is that you flash the hidden markings you get for solving the zodiac crypts.""I see." The ex-assassin finally gave up as he turned to his clanmates. He counted himself, Kaz, Ernie, Conroy, Maggie, Vorus, and Lela."Don't sweat it dudes and dudettes." "Yeah, Sir Ernie said he won't be participating." "Is it because of that thing?" Kaz addressed the guitarist. "Who knows?" Ernie shrugged off the question as he pockets his hands. "That leaves 6 of us." Vorus states.
The City of Lundar was covered with the loud cheers coming from the colloseum. The first round of the Vagrant games had begun! "Let the Vagrant games begin!" The announcer declared as the behemoths that had been staring each other down quickly jumped backwards to create space between them. They then raised their hands and called forth their relics. Vorus clenched the handle of his hammer, electricity crackled around him as he takes a couple of test swings in the airGou followed suite with his mace relic, the Gada, the weapon of the Hindu god of strength Hanuman. The crowd cheered wildly. "Our competitors have heated up the match before it even began by summoning their relics. Gada and Mjolnir, both legendary blunt weapons of powerful gods!"Vorus dashes toward the shirtless man. Throwing his hand back, he shouted, "Blue Boomerang!" He tosses his hammer as it speeds at Gou. "It's fast!" Said Lela as she noticed all of her clan mates had their full attention at the battle at hand
"A lone brave eh?" Jake says. Lone braves are braves that partake in the zodiac crypts' trial without aligning themselves with a clan. The only time a lone brave gets involved with a team is during the first zodiac crypt where a condition was set that will only allow braves in teams of 4 to partake in the trial. After that, they head on to take the other trials on their own. "This battle won't be easy for Chase," Lexi adds. "Oh come on guys," Rhea intervenes. "We all improved haven't we? Lone brave or not, Chase will put on a good show!" "The match is about to start." "Yo speedster, you ready to party with the ripster?" Chase tilted his head before shaking away his confusion replacing his expression with a serious gaze. "They say you lone Braves are pretty powerful..." Chase said as his boots began to glow. "Some say you're all nothing but a bunch of socially awkward individuals." Ace perked his head as he excitedly waits for their clash to begin. He had fought Chase some t
""Ace!?" "You guys looked surprised to see me." The ex-assassin looked over to see the unconscious Chase. "How's he holding up?" "Doc says he'll be fine as soon as he recovers his ain." "Or..." Ace moved forward and places his hand on the forehead of the speedster. A faint glow appeared and it wasn't long that Chase jolts up gasping for air. "Chase!" "Huh? What's going on?" The speedster took a minute to process the events that transpired. A look of disappointment crossed his face. "That's right, I lost, miserably." "How?" Jake asks Ace. "I shared my ain with him." Ace replied with a smile."You what!?" The enders all gasped."What? You guys seemed worried hihi." "We know that but we all contemplated on that and decided Chase won't want us to burn away our ain before our matches." Lexi States. "Yeah, and he wasn't really in any danger," Falkner adds."Ace..." Rhea speaks grabbing the hand attention of the ex-assassin. She blushed as she began to arrange the words she want
Barbaros's castle had a variety of rooms with guards patrolling every section of the place. One room, in particular, received more surveillance as it house two captives who were an important part of the Dons plans. The dungeon room used to have only one prisoner who was the Plumage Saint, that was not until he was joined by a familiar face. "Huhuhu," Shuntal laughs as he strokes his beard.His cell was opposite to that of the cell containing Reginald who was still in the form of Kisha. "It's good to see that everyone else is alright, Reginald."The thief gasped. "How did you figure it out?" "I might be old, but my senses are sharper than ever." Reginald brushed off the statement. "I'm here to bust you out, old man.""So your relic lets you transform into other people?" "Yeah," Reginald replied as he puffs out his chest feeling a sense of pride. "It's awesome, isn't it? A relic worthy of the great Reginald Star!""Huhuhu." Shuntal laughs. "It's great to see some things don't cha
"You're a lone brave right? Say would you like to join my clan?" "Ehhh!?" Ace's proposal caught everyone off guard. "Hehe, it's not Ace until he does something unexpected." Ernie comments. Even the Dragon Saint was surprised by the ex-assassin's actions. She looked at Maggie. "Is he always like that?" "You have no idea sister." Ace stood in front of the Ice Mage. "So... What would it be?" Jakeem bursts into laughter. "You're a wild one aren't you?" He jumps back to create space between them then creates an ice wall. "I like your bluntness, but I'm afraid I must reject your offer.""Ehhh!" The crowd shouted. "He rejected..." "A chance to join the Aegis clan!?" Jakeem presses his hands together. "Icicle Blast!"The ice wall standing between them began to rumble. "Trouble." Ace's senses warned as he enters his Glider mode. "Point One: Glider!" The pair of dark aura wings emerged from his back. Conroy's eyes lit up seeing the ex-assassin's new form. "Sir Ace has improve
"Very well, it seems you've lost your mind. I'll oblige to your little challenge and don't you worry, I won't kill you, I'll only crush you!""You get one hit, then. I'll put an end to you!" Tommaso declared. "Has he lost his mind!" Kaz exclaims. It was unusual for the vice-captain of the Aegis clan to be surprised. "The energy being emitted by Lee currently is higher than Ace when he's in his Apex form!" He adds, making the other Aegises perk up. "Does this mean, Lee is stronger than the captain?" Vorus asks."Following energy statistics," Said Lela as she folds her arms. "Yes." Ace smiles. "That's okay, I'm not the strongest here anyway. Kaz and Lela are stronger than me hihi." The Aegises were dumbfounded by Ace's honesty. Maggie recalled a time that Ace mentioned Kaz being stronger than him. She had figured he was just being modest."But that wasn't the case was it?"They all turned their gazes to the Dragon Saint who had all her focus concentrated on the match."She's strong
