"Flank it… Attack now… Dodge… It lost its balance, attack it now…"

This was the conversation between Gadiel and Zakari as they tried to kill a third-order briwyn. They ran circles around it and attacked when they saw openings… They covered for each other whenever the briwyn hyper-focused on one of them specifically.

Although it took some time to kill the briwyn using this method, they were able to do it. They clapped each other's hands in celebration of the kill and watched the briwyn slowly disintegrate into hundreds of light particles that soon faded away.

"With this kill, we should have enough for the third-order potions we need", Gadiel said amidst laughter.

"Just stay quiet, we have to leave this place, we can't have someone taking a 30% cut us", Zakari cautioned him. Unfortunately, his warnings came too late and they heard an unfamiliar voice say words those exact words they dreaded.

"Oh, come now, you can't expect to leave like this without paying your dues"

    "Miss Raven, I get the feeling that you have broken through, am I correct?", Andrew said as they walked out of the city and back to the city."Yes, I have… It is quite a pain to do something like this all over again but I believe I am doing quite well"A few more topics just like this one was raised to keep the conversations going, but they soon ran out of things to talk about and instead, focused on walking back to the city.They were indeed walking but it would be more apt to describe their movement through the forest as glitching… A pace Gadiel and Zakari had to be carried along for them to keep up.Soon, they burst through the forest into open grounds, and directly in front of them was a gate that stood tall and closed…People were going into the city, and they even formed a line to do it… This city had a moat and people looking after its doors… No one was allowed into the city without payment of points.This was without doubt in no way, the central city—A discovery that was made

    "Reinhardt… Who is Reinhardt?!"The questioning look from Princess Diane lasted only a moment before it was replaced by a look of remembrance and recognition."Reinhardt...", Diane called."Your Highness, it is so nice to see you. We stayed and looked all over for you and him, but we did not find a trace of you", Reinhardt said as he pulled off his disguise.The moment he took the disguise off, he vanished from where he was standing and the next moment he appeared, he had two people punching at him.Their attacks were just as sudden as his dash, and this drove him to a halt before he retreated."He might need a beating", Raven said with her usual wicked smile wiped off her face."Indeed", Andrew echoed a response.Both their expressions showed that they meant business at that moment, but so did Reinhardt's. His gaze was locked onto Aiden and it looked like he was ready to tear Aiden apart piece by piece."Okay, everyone, please try to calm down", Aiden said. "Raven, Andrew... Put away

    "Miss Deirdre, I told them that the third-order shadow elemental potion had been bought... They seemed disappointed when I told them that"Deirdre who was sitting in a lounge chair just as Aoife would, gave a nod and dismissed the girl.As soon as the girl left the room, she said randomly, "you know what to do".It appeared like she was just speaking to the room until the sound of the door closing was heard.Over at the inn, a whole different situation was underway. Lively and loud inside while everything remained as quiet as can be outside.Gadiel screamed many times, in bouts of sharp screams that pierced into every ear around him because breaking and reassembling so many of his bones was hardly an enjoyable experience.This sight pricked at Zakari but he steeled his heart, knowing that if he did not go through this, he would stay in the same rank forever.Of course, Diane isolated Gadiel in a space warp to keep his screams from tearing through the blocks that held up the building.

    "Behind you…"A swift turn and the briwyn was punched straight into the ground before it exploded into a million pieces and faded away.She looked at him, picked up a stone, and threw it. He bent his head to the side and what followed was the shriek of a beast as it got hit by the stone… It was in the air when the stone hit and that momentum continued to carry it until it passed by the guy, who grabbed its neck with one hand and used his other hand to pull the briwyn's insides out.This move killed the briwyn, and the millions of glowing pieces it exploded into faded away before they touched the ground.There were three more briwyns there and seeing as their mates were just killed so leisurely, an escape was the move because they turned and ran before, they turned to look at them.From the sidelines, Diane said a comment, "seems like you are getting used to your new strength… That's good but we need to hurry""Yes, Miss Diane", Gadiel responded."Come on… Don't be a buzzkill", Raven c

    ["You mean to dilute the fourth order potion into a third order potion… That is very dangerous…"]"It is just an idea and while I don’t know if it will work just yet but if it does it will solve a lot of our problems", Aiden answered without raising his head from the book he had his head buried in.["Be careful, that is all I am saying, and make no mistakes, they could be disastrous"], Zarek warned.Aiden raised his head when he heard this and said to Zarek, "You know that Darwyn was the spirit of the chronicle of time?"; to which Zarek nodded with a bit of confusion shown on his face."Well, he forced me to take a crash course in alchemy… I had to learn about more than a thousand plants and their uses… How they would react in a potion versus another…"Zarek understood what Aiden and nodded… ["I hope you find what you need because your friends seem to have returned, and I sense they are coming straight for you"]This warning sent Aiden spiraling out of his mind and he opened his eyes

    "Thank you for meeting me. As you might have guessed, I need your help on something, and my quest for information was only to confirm what I think I know", Deirdre started.She gestured to the guy beside her, and he pulled out a potion vial and placed it on the table in between both their groups."A token of my…""What exactly do you want from us?", Aiden interrupted with a question.Deirdre was silent for a moment before she said simply, "it would be better to show you… Tonight, the forest outside the city, north of the waterfall… You will find way markers to lead you to a meeting place"After saying this, Deirdre stood up with the guy following her and left the restaurant, leaving behind the potion. Props to Zakari, because while the third order potion he so desperately wanted was sitting on the table in front of him, his thoughts were on the credibility and risk Deirdre would bring to the group."She looks like she is afraid of something…", he said to Aiden, a moment after Deirdre

    "Now we become the hunters… We watch and observe their actions and reactions", Aiden said to Diane.Diane turned to look at the two groups for a moment before she said to Aiden, "let's go". She led the way to another spot where the two parties could be seen much more clearly.Both groups were well hidden, but where Diane and Aiden stood made it quite easy to see them both."Your highness, what exactly did you do?", Aiden asked when he saw the indecision on Deirdre's face as well as the worried look on the face of the guy with her.Diane was silent for a moment before she answered, "You know that it is bizarre to have you talk to me like this after you told me what you thought of my behavior"It was Aiden's turn to be dumbfounded and he fell silent. He did not know how to respond to what she just said and he stared at her for a few seconds until she broke the silence."Maybe because you did not try to understand my actions before you hated me? You're a princess… Too much of a royal… Us

    Amid all the uproar, there was one person who stood in the window of a tall tower looking up at the name shining in gold on the giant scoreboard projection.He was absorbed in his thoughts when the door opened and a man walked in… He stood a few paces behind the man and looked up at the scoreboard whose cracks were repairing themselves right there and said…"The emperor is waiting for an explanation to what happened", he said."Gaia… What do you think of what we saw?", the old man looking out of the window asked."I think we should only accept facts as we see them", he responded, but the old man followed up immediately after that response with a question."I am asking you as a friend… What do you think?", he said.The man called Gaia fell silent for a moment before he answered in a voice that felt different when compared to the way he spoke moments prior."Lord Ajax… I believe the world is changing… These changes are beyond our control but we have a choice when it comes to what we cho

    The crowd was pulled from the tragedy that the nobles caused, and some people started to point to the group suspended above them, whispering and murmuring various pieces of gossip.This was a topic that excited them all, however, the ones who were most excited for the revelation were the nobles who finally knew the people who beat them to occupy the highest floor of the tower.They did not hide the wicked grins on their faces and Aiden saw these grins on their faces. He also saw that the group were starting to descend from the sky into the midst of the crowd. That was bad and was quickly made worse when he noticed the nobles setting their hounds on the group.He could guess their thoughts. Even if the group was stronger than they were, given the position they occupied, they did not believe it and wanted to know for themselves how powerful they were.This gave Aiden a headache and his mind began to spin quickly, looking for a big enough distraction that would give the group a chance to

    None could ask the other for help because each had someone attacking them, however, they were not noble scions for nothing. Despite being overpowered by the golems, they dealt some damage over time.It was not immediately obvious, but they managed to hold their own, and avoid grievous injuries even though there were several close calls.It took them each about an hour to circumvent their respective golems and deal enough damage to break through their chests.Hadrian was the first followed by Oscar shortly after with Tristan clocking in third, a few seconds behind Oscar. He was unhappy with this but he had no time to be unhappy because his face soon changed into a somber look. Oscar who had just tried to pick up the glowing multi-coloured orb was surprised to find the orb roll away from him and float up to meet the orb that came from Tristan’s golem. This also meant that the orb in Hadrian’s hand was the only one that remained.Oscar and Tristan noticed this, but they could do nothin

    No one cared who had said that word because they all ran. The sight of the gray tentacles rising like pillars from the depths of the abyss was enough to scare every one of them.At the same moment, there was a rumble that spread across the skies of the city at that moment. Everyone heard it. Aiden, sitting in the restaurant was jolted from his thoughts and joined everyone else as they looked up at the ruin.He witnessed a few of the tentacles of the beast appear on the edge of the ruin as he had seen before they entered the ruin.‘That bridge, huh? They might be lucky enough to escape'.He did not care much if these people beat the ruin and made it to the temple. He had gotten his rewards and he was happy with that.Tristan and his group had immediately dashed off the bridge, but the tentacles came down on the bridge at a lightning-fast speed.This attack ripped the bridge apart, leaving just three people from Tristan’s group unscathed.Tristan’s face was painted with horror like ever

    Aiden was dumbfounded. How was this a reward? It simply contradicted itself. The problem it caused was having him be a prime target for the Zaltyr, but it would also save him from them once.Then, is the mark erased once the life-saving opportunity is used?[Yes, everything returns to normal after that]This made him heave a sigh of relief. He tried to look at this from a positive perspective. This meant the mark was not meant to specifically protect him from the Zaltyr, its main purpose was to protect him from every other thing that tried to kill him.Thinking about it this way made it easier to accept the fact that he was going to be in trouble with the Zaltyr sooner or later, albeit only slightly.Elder Zarek watched Aiden go through his thoughts for a few minutes while he thought of the command he had received from The World Seed.Aiden had recovered his thoughts at this point and decided to check on his elemental seed. He was elated to see the changes to his elemental seed.The mu

    None of the thirty remaining survivors was stupid and they took things as calmly as they could. There was no visible harm to resting till a problem was identified and this was something they unanimously agreed on.As they expected, there was something that was out of the ordinary and it was found after two hours of waiting.The quiet rumble that came from the depths of the chasm was enough of a wake-up call.Theo of the Arco twins was the one who made the first comment, breaking the silence. None of them believed that crossing the bridge would be easy from the start, however, the realization that some unknown danger lurked beneath was enough to bring them flashbacks of their time in the maze.“There’s something down there as well? Why is this trial so difficult?”“Good thing we were patient…”“Patient? What does that do for us?”“Theo is not completely wrong. Every stage of the trials had been harder than the last”, Oscar took a deep breath.“Indeed… Something that can cause such a ru

    “You just had to jinx it?”Raven rolled her eyes in response.The orb glowed and the rubble spread across the hall was drawn to it. One piece after the other, they mashed together and barely a moment later, a statue had formed.This statue looked the same as the ones they fought before, save for a few important differences. One, this new statue was massive, at least three times as tall. Two, the statue now had a weapon – A halberd which it swung around. Three, most importantly, it had lines running all over its body. Looking close enough these lines were runes just like the ones Aiden and the rest had, but these were very close to being complete, easily dwarfing the ones they had.Their expressions turned grave as the glowing eyes of the massive statue locked onto them.It was a golem, and it wasted no time. With a roar that sounded like thunder, it wielded its halberd and charged at them.There was no running from it, because, a sweep of its halberd made the hall feel claustrophobi

    Raven who had suggested was the first to move, and the moment she did, everyone else followed her one after the other. They got to the stone coffin amidst their careful creeping without any problems. The unnerving feeling that they felt from the statues kept them on their toes as they expected everything to go wrong at any moment. "Now what", Raven asked. Aiden and Connor stepped here, and as he instructed; "Keep an eye out", the two of them pushed the lid off the stone coffin. They were right to be worried, because the moment the stone coffin opened slightly, light burst out of the opening. They were taken aback by this absurd light show, however, the light was like a tonic, one that breathed life into the surrounding. Life into the several warrior statues that lined the walls. Each of their eyes opened with a snap, glowing a bright orange, followed by cracks that came from the loosening of the joints on the statues. Gadiel was the first to speak regret about the situation, but

    With Aiden and Connor leading the way, they stepped onto the rope bridge. The silence that fell on them at that was quite unnerving, but it helped them keep their focus. This meant that their reactions were spot on as they responded immediately to Aiden making any signals.This was the moment that they finally understood the danger that lay in the chasm beneath them. Apart from the scary chasm that looked like a bottomless pit, a sight that already promised them death should they fall into it, there was something else living in the chasm, and the dreadful atmosphere it brought with evidence of its existence sent chills running their spines. The conclusion here was very simple, there was trouble and they needed to be careful.Listening carefully, they heard the silent rumbles gradually fade away, taking with it the tense atmosphere they felt. You would expect Aiden to make a sudden dash to get across as quickly as possible, but he didn't. He was taking no chances, so continued steadily

    "Three days?!", Raven started."Oh, don't get worked up, it was more like two and a half days", Princess Eleanor chipped in.Unfortunately, this did not change the reaction Raven had; in fact, her reaction got worse at that moment as she got frantic and almost lost her mind as she looked around."Calm down, Raven. Things are not as bad as you think. We are out of the grassland maze; of course, we had to wait for everyone to de-petrify before we continued…", Deirdre explained."So, what trial do we have now?", Raven asked and immediately got a response."Oh, the long rope bridge, strung across the chasm that has a tentacled beast living in it", Deirdre responded like that piece of information was of no consequence.Raven was silent as she stared off into space for a moment. When she got her mind back, she asked almost immediately… "Are we crossing now that I am awake?"A question to which Princess Eleanor answered in a snarky and sarcastic tone… "Hopefully". Her comment got a few gazes
