[Solaria-Ankouna Border] “So you came back after losing pathetically yesterday ?” A mocking voice rang out from a man. The man who couldn’t be more than twenty had short brown hair with dark red eyes. He was a Half-Prince of Ankouna. Trevor Ankouna. “You are more than thirty against me alone and you call yourselves ‘heroes’ ? Was that a joke from Solaria ?” “I will cut off your tongue and make you eat it, bastard!” Vincent shouted angrily. It had been a month and each time, Trevor would mock them like that. It became a daily routine for them to hear Trevor’s mocking speech in the day and the nobles’ nagging in the night. “Fire slash!” Vincent swung his sword and a circular trail of fire went towards Trevor. “Weakling, you will learn your place in front of the might of Ankouna.” Trevor said before swinging his sword. Swish! His red sword had several sharp teeth embedded in the blade. Fire and wind came out of his sword and easily canceled Vincent’s attack. Trevor was a
Clip Clop! Clip Clop! Clip Clop! A beautiful carriage could be seen advancing on a road. The road was currently nearly empty because of the war in Lunarstella. To avoid any tricks or traps of Lunarstella, the borders and all towns were carefully regulated. Food and other important things were distributed by trustworthy and checked veteran knights of Lunarstella in each town. So there were not that many people outside the towns. Most of the people outside were the knights of Lunarstella assigned on all the borders of Lunarstella to be ready for any attack from Ankouna or even Solaria and Nychterin. You can never be too careful after all. Except for the knights, the Commanders of Lunarstella could also move anywhere without prior warning. They were the most powerful people politically and in strength, so it was normal. Above them were three powerful positions. The Imperial family consisted of the Emperor, the Empress, Selena, and Narvi. They were the leading figures of the imp
Thud_ A soft sound echoed as Aita climbed down from the carriage. All the people around, belonging to the knights of Lunarstella stared at him. They looked at the young man with beautiful green eyes with awe. Though he looked slightly different than before, his unique mask and presence gave his identity away. They also heard of his survival and his coming here, so they were not surprised. Aita ignored them and walked ahead. “““““Lord Commander.””””” They all made a way for him by placing themselves on the right and left of Aita. Then they put their right fist on their chest and leaned their heads slightly. Behind Aita, Lynda, Isaac, Jerry, and Robert followed. “Ahhhhh…” Aita yawned and continued to walk. Thanks to Zara healing him the whole night, he recovered quickly but he wanted to sleep again. Though he didn’t care as long he could get what he wanted. And for that, he needed to get rid of the Kailes Ankouna. “Aita ?” A surprised voice rang out. It was Alden with Kyra b
Booom! Boooom! The next morning, Aita woke up in a good shape. He slept very well and it had been a long time since he slept that well. Booom! The sound of explosions echoed outside the headquarters making the whole building tremble a bit. A new battle started early in the morning. Ankouna attacked suddenly out of nowhere which was strange as they had been rather calm the last month. But Aita knew exactly what was happening. After taking a bath, Aita put on a black shirt and black pants like usual. Knock! Knock! “Enter.” Creak! “M-Milord! We are attacked! Lady Kyra called for your presence.” The maid said with a pale face. “Lead the way.” Putting on his mask, he said. “Y-Yes!” Aita left his room and followed the maid. As he walked, he saw everyone running around and speaking loudly. Upon seeing Aita, they would greet him before running again. “Aita!” As soon as they came out of the headquarters, Lynda and the others rushed towards Aita. Alden and Kyra were giving
“Avatar.” Swooooooosh! A tremendous amount of mana leaked out of Aita’s body. The sky turned dark green and dark green runes appeared on Aita’s face and arms. He knew that if he continued to fight like that, he would die, so he had no choice but to use the ‘Avatar’. With only a few exchanges, he understood that Kailes was stronger than him. That’s why he needed to go all out from the start. “Oh~” Kailes smiled broadly seeing that. But it didn’t diminish his arrogant expression at all. “The weakling has something at least.” Swooosh! Kailes said and took out a dark red spear. “Burn!” Crackle! An ominous dark red fire enveloped his spear. “Come weakling!” “Niu Heimar, Atgeir!” Whoooosh! Aita said, and a lance made of wind flew at Kailes. Kailes snorted and waved his burning spear. BOOOOM! Both attacks canceled each other. “!” Kailes’ eyes opened wide as he saw Aita right before him. He grabbed Kailes by his neck and struck his stomach with his knee. BAM! “AH!” K
Kailes felt something snap inside him as he saw Aita beckoning to him. “Spear of hell….” BOOOOM! Fire exploded around his spear. He raised his spear and took a throwing stance. “Disappear, weakling of Lunarstella.” Whoooooosh! The spear headed towards Aita at tremendous speed. The ground below became scorched along the way. Aita grabbed his sword hard. He knew that he couldn’t completely cancel the attack. Kailes was in his ‘Avatar Form’. He was much stronger than before. Aita looked at the sky. Time seemed to slow down for him. ‘What am I doing…?’ He asked himself as he faced an attack that could easily kill him. He joined the battlefield to kill Kailes Ankouna so he could stop that annoying war. Then he could obtain what he wanted from Linus Lunarstella. He wanted to know what was behind that space rift. But now, he felt tired. Tired of all his fights. He fought for a few days. Hvitserk, Lotfi, the Emperor of Nychterin, and now Kailes Ankouna. Maybe it was bec
‘Spirit Avatar’ It was another powerful ability with the ‘Avatar Form’. But only a few could use it. Mastering the ‘Avatar Form’ didn’t guarantee that you could master the ‘Spirit Avatar’. Vice versa. They were two different things. They both had their inconveniences and advantages. Selena, as a genius, could use both of them but chose to use the ‘Spirit Avatar’ since it was dangerous to fight head-on Kailes Ankouna. Aita did it because he was an expert in that domain and it was still a wonder to her how he could still injure Kailes while being weaker than him. Anyway, in a long-range attack, Selena had a great advantage and she was strong in that domain as well. That’s why she chose the ‘Spirit Avatar’ instead of her ‘Avatar Form’. “What the hell are you doing here ?!” Aita shouted angrily at Selena. Selena turned around. Her face was cold but still really beautiful. Her silver hair was crystallized in some parts, making it shine in the night sky. Selena’s sky-blue eye
“You will die here, Lunar Princess.” Kailes said with a smirk. He felt very lucky as the untouchable princess was right in front of him. And the new Lord Commander of Lunarstella was placed on a silver plate so he could kill him. ‘You will see Rhaines.’ He really wanted to see the face of his elder brother, Rhaines, upon learning what he accomplished today. “Hm ?” He looked at Selena and frowned. Selena was looking to her left with a pale face. She was closing her mouth as if horrified by something. He followed her gaze and found Aita, standing. “!” Aita was staring back at him coldly. His whole face was bloodied. And blood was flowing out of his mouth and eyes… Thud_ ‘What…’ Kailes stepped back unconsciously. Aita reached out his hand and touched the crystal deer on his right. A dark green light covered the deer and the deer regenerated. The previous crack closed and his whole body shone in dark green. Eeeeeeee! “!” Stomping the ground, it rushed towards Kailes.
