"Shut up, it's cringe."Aita cut him off as the man started speaking.""Pfft!""Selena and Narvi stifled a laugh at that.The man's expression became mad.As expected, he really wanted to kill Aita.It was not about his mission anymore.He needed to kill Aita for his mental health."Njord Wind, Blades."Aita didn't waste time any more and attacked."Earth wall!"Boom!The wall protected him from the wind blades."!"Sensing a threat, he quickly jumped back.Crash!Several spikes of crystal pierced the ground."Narvi, step back!""Y-yes!"Confirming that her brother had stepped back, Selena continued to support Aita from behind."Air blast!""Earth pillar!Boom!Dodging the pieces of earth flying everywhere, Aita clenched his fist.Bam!"Gah!"The man who was punched in the stomach lost his breath and rolled on the ground."Selenite lances!"Selena immediately followed as she launched several spikes of crystal toward the injured man.The latter glared at them and punched the ground.Ba
Thud!"Ah…ah…ah…ah…"Aita knelt on the ground, as he was out of breath.He was totally out of mana now."Are you okay ?"Looking up, Aita saw Selena and her brother.Narvi was hugging Selena's waist, he seemed scared of Aita...When Aita's dark green eyes fell on him, Narvi hid completely behind Selena."Hey, don't scare my brother."Selena said with a frown, though she just wanted to annoy him.Aita moved his gaze to Selena's beautiful sky-blue eyes.It was really a beautiful pair of blue eyes bordering cyan.As for Selena, she was fascinated by Aita's dark green eyes."He-"It was the first time she saw that close his eyes and she couldn't help but find them very beautiful."Lunar princ-"Then looking at his face, she frowned. With half of his black hair turning golden, he really looked like a stranger."Hey!"Flick!"Ouch!"Selena, whose forehead was flicked, groaned in pain."Why did you do that?!"She glared at him while stroking her forehead."Noisy. You were not answering me."
"What the hell happened to him...?"Aita muttered as he stared at Zack's state.Boooom!A shockwave rippled suddenly toward them."Selenite wall!"Piercing the ground with her spear, Selena shouted.Crack!She soon reacted as a huge wall of crystal appeared before them."Uncle!""!"Hearing the familiar voice, Zack pushed away the leader of assassins and landed on the ground.Thud_Turning around, he was surprised to see them all there."Selena, Narvi, Aita...""Uncle, what happened to your body ?! What are these stains ?"Selena said, grabbing Zack's purplish and bloodied left arm."It's nothing Luna, I just need a healing elixir."Zack said with a reassuring smile."Then!"Selena immediately took a healing elixir but..."It's useless."A muffled voice rang out.They all turned their heads toward the voice and saw the leader with earth armor.Behind him was one of his subordinates.They were the last two remaining of the nine."What do you mean?!"Selena glared at the men."Ahaha! Qu
"Soren!""Eh ?"A ten-year-old child turned around and saw a lance approaching at great speed toward him.Whooosh!But before that, a shadow came in front of him.Spurt!Blood splattered on Soren's face.Looking up, he saw a familiar pair of dark green eyes and froze."M-Mom..?""Cough! A-Are you okay Soren ?""M-Mom!"Soren moved from his frozen state and hugged his mother.A spear was pierced on her back."Mom! We have to heal y-!"Bam!"Kah!"A fist collided with his stomach and Soren rolled on the ground."Soren!"Vanadis crawled on the ground toward her son."You are pathetic, Vanadis."A cold voice rang out from behind.Thud_A burly and tall man came out.He seemed no more than eighteen.Shoulder length golden-blond hair tied on his back, beard and several tattoos on his face reaching his neck.His cold red eyes looked with disappointment at Vanadis hugging Soren."I-I will kill you Bjorn...""Hm ?"Hearing the low voice, Bjorn turned his gaze to Soren, who was hugged by Vanadi
Selena didn't think twice before rushing toward her brother.She immediately hugged him protectively."Si-Sister..."Narvi's body shivered in her embrace."Don't worry Narvi, I'm here."Selena said and created a huge cocoon of crystal around them.But she was sure that it wouldn't be enough.She was out of mana and tired mentally.Moreover, her opponent was far stronger than her."Die!"The leader's voice rang out from the outside.Selena closed her eyes and hugged Narvi tightly.Crack!Boom!As expected, the crystal cocoon didn't last long.'Father! mother!'Spurt!Warm liquid spattered on her face.She knew it was blood but was surprised as she didn't feel any pain.Opening her eyes slowly, she saw the back of Aita.A pointed tip was coming out of the left side of his stomach.Drip_ Drip_ Drip_Blood was still falling on Selena's face."W-Why?"Selena was shocked.She thought that Aita would never put his life below others.There was a deal of protecting them but was it just that ?
One month later…[Solaria Palace, Training Ground]"Ice Arrows!""Fire Wall."Booom!Arrows of ice flew fast toward Sienna, who summoned a wall of fire.The arrows melted upon contact with the fire wall."Wow! As expected of you, Sienna!"Aura exclaimed loudly.Then she pulled the string of her bow again.Her mana slowly enveloped her bow before creating an ornamented arrow made of ice."Take this! Ice Arrow Cannon!"Whooosh!The arrow, which was bigger than the previous, froze the ground as it rushed toward Sienna.Sienna, still with an impassive face, channeled her mana."Fire Cannon."A huge torrent of fire came out of her right palm and collided with the arrows.Booom!Crack!The arrow cracked but still continued.Aura smiled but, unfortunately, it didn't last long."Earth wall."Bam!An earth wall came out in front of her and stopped the arrow."You have two attributes, it's unfair!""You shouldn't say that when you have a rare ice magic Aura."Sienna replied with a shrug.Aura w
Boooom!"What again?"Riona let out, annoyed.She had just witnessed an explosion and already another rang out."I-It's Andrew and Austin!"A student answered with a pale face."Sigh..."Riona walked toward the two morons who didn't understand that it was a friendly match.***Clang! Clang!Boom! Boom!Hundreds of meters away from Aura and the others, a fierce fight was happening."Light Cannon!"Swooosh!A torrent of golden light shot out of Andrew's sword toward Austin."That's bad!"Austin jumped back and covered his sword in blue fire.Crackle_!Swish!With a swing, a huge wall of blue fire appeared in front of him.The golden light and blue fire collided.Boooom!A bluish explosion appeared in the sky as a shockwave rippled into the surrounding area."T-They are monsters!""As expected of Austin and Andrew!""Kyaa! They are so cool!"The spectators, mostly their classmates, were dumbfounded by Austin and Andrew's power.It had been nearly five months since they were summoned, so
"Austin and Andrew should be more careful in friendly matches."""Y-Yes!""Both nodded awkwardly though Andrew blushed as he saw Liana's perfect face that close.Clap! Clap! Clap!"Your attention!"Riona's voice echoed a few meters away from them.They all surrounded her and waited.Once they were all present, she spoke."There are three basic and powerful attacks in attributes. What are they ?""I know Miss Riona!"Aura raised her hands, trying to redeem herself."Aura.""Yes! It's the Wall, the Cannon and the Lances""Yes, exactly. Though they are basics that anyone could do, they are still powerful and trustworthy. So rely on these attacks when you are in a dangerous situation."""""Yes!"""They all nodded at her words."Of course, there are other basics, but these three ones are the most important."Saying that, she took a deep breath."Concerning 'your' personal strength, what I mean by that is the attacks you created yourself. They are all mostly strong, I admit it, but they are
