The druids had made numerous preparations to hide their involvement with this assassin. The best way to prove that they were not involved in the assassination is if theyfaked their own death and make it look like they too, were assassinated!

Even before they left their room and met the tamers, a secret, ancient, and illegal form of spell had been used.

In the rooms where the druid tournament competitors were assigned to stay, were three dead bodies. But the strange thing about these decaying bodies is that it was very hard to tell how they were killed.

The Druids used strange plant magic of growing a clone body. It had been one of the magic that was long pursued. Druids merge their body with the plant and so, it was theoretically possible for them to ‘grow’ another body. It was a horrifying experiment known only to those at the higher ranks of the Circle and very, very few people outside of the druid’s Circle knew of this dark magic.

But this magic and the ritual that the druids of th

    When the druid elder heard his ally say the words ‘the vine,’ he instantly understood.The vine was already cut off!The magic prepared to create that vine was immense! They had to add enough magic energy on it so that it would grow all the way down the mountain. But now, even before they managed to improve the vine and imbue it with even more magic, it had already been cut off!“Damn them! They distracted us!” The druid cursed.The druid elder’s expression turned ugly as he sought Scythe! He couldn’t understand how that black komodo managed to sever the vine! Th“Damn that crafty lizard! I didn’t even sense its approach!” The druid elder cursed.“It wasn’t him. He was around the area all the time. How could he cut off that vine?” Arthen appeared out of the mist and asked the Druid Elder.“You!” The Druid elder saw Arthen and realized it.“That’s right. My spider. Scythe isn’t the only beast that can walk on walls.” Arthen smiled.Suddenly, Ruby appeared at the cliffside and spat out

    The druids faced the two famous experts of the Westerforts and a platoon of High Apprentices with specialized weapons. Although the weapons were not as diverse as Tianne’s magic arrows, the regular archer had had bolts, arrows, and coated tips that could allow them to inflict different types of attacks.These basic arrow types were armor defense reduction, piercing, breaking, and burning arrow tips, and others depending on the specific training that archers had.Archers in the Westerfort had a very diverse field. Archers usually are specialists in specific fields of archery. Since there are numerous types of fighting professions, archers tend to find ways how their arrows could harm and kill specific fighting professions who have defensive measures.Against the druids, these techniques were used. The druid's defenses easily fell from the attacks that appeared.There were several archers who appeared on the cliffside and ambushed the group.Ruby had spun a web that helped the archers m

    Asteria trembled at the words of Kanter but knew what he meant.The attacks involved many members of the Galantcros family. Even a far relative of the Galantcross, Yale Chasszims, wasamong the assassins.The painful and hard-to-swallow truth had finally been revealed to Asteria.She, who was favored to be the duchess and had the support of Galantcross, was now tossed aside and doomed to die. She was not a fool in the world of politics. But she couldn’t understand why she was targeted.“Someone’s coming! Oh... it’s just them. False alarm.” Flay turned to the distance and the group of the Shield Prince with a few knights arrived. The two experts of Asteria had also returned.“My Lord!” The two flew.“I’m alright,” Asteria answered.“Save my mages, first!” Asteria ordered.“They’re alright. My slimes moved them. Every single one accounted for. Even the traitors.” Flay smiled as he pointed to a part of the mansion where numerous people lay asleep.“Get them out. Bring them further north.

    The worst fear of the Easterfort and the Southerfort collaboration was true.Asteria was alive!The careful plans they had made and the opportunity that presented itself and forced Asteria out of her lonely castle was the shot they needed. Asteria was not in her own home and her death would have come at a very timely moment with the chaos that was brewing in the north! But now, she was alive! She would be more guarded than before! The group would be forced to spend more resources if they wanted to assassinate Asteria again!!Also, the status of the elite group of assassins was unknown as no traces of these assassins could be found. They dare not think it, but all evidence suggested that the experts had died!This posed an incredibly great problem to the two dukes. There were experts and many more witnesses that were rushing towards the place. There was no time and no means to assassinate Asteria. Everyone was cautious and prepared to fight.“What do we do? With those attacks, it's pos

    The arrival of numerous nobles, military, and even the freeman mercenary brought more witnesses who were now ordering their men to send reports with talismans and other magic devices.News of this would quickly spread overnight.“You’re all… in on this!” Asteria shouted and rebutted the words of Kanter.“This… must have been quite a plan for all of you…! You all planned… this tournament! This… place… You gathered all that you needed in this place…! I can see it now!” Asteria laughed like an insane woman.“I’ll… burn all of you…! I swear this! I’ll burn all of you! You dare…! I will spend all of the North's resources to burn your dukedoms to ashes!” Asteria roared.“By my might and my magic… The skies will darken and you will face the wrath of me…! The Lightning Goddess!”As she made her vows, the two dukes felt a trembling in their hearts. They had received the full force of Asteria’s attack and suffered it. But now, the crazy, and angry vow drew fears at her. Was it possible? Could s

    That night carried on and the guards of Kanter were doubly strict and sent everyone to their respective houses. The tournament the next day would be delayed due to the events and the proposed meeting of Dukes, to be spearheaded by Duke Valleris was scheduled.Everyone in town continued to talk of the strange events. Many marveled at the power of Asteria and how the majestic spell tore through the night and destroyed the massive mansion made of strong stone that even Adepts could not easily destroy.Asteria ordered her mages to prepare more of the same trap that killed two experts. But her cruel words echoed that should another assassination attempt be made, it will instantly lead to a full war!As the night moved into the early morning, Asteria stayed at the very chamber where Kanter would reside.The chamber of Kanter was undoubtedly one of the safest places in Westerfort Heaven City.No one thought that Asteria’s demands were suspicious at all. To the eyes of the citizens, they see

    Flay held the Mid-Grade Lightning Core. It looked as good as new!It was glowing with bright light and the specks of darkness around on it had vanished!The lightning energy was good as new!Asteria had a shocked expression as she looked at the magnificent jewel that surpassed the brightness and beauty even when she first acquired it!Kanter was also confused. He did not pay attention to what Flay was doing as his eyes were locked on Asteria.He only turned to Flay when the Core was starting to glow!“Hmm... Is this purified? I can’t tell with Asteria acting all stiff.” Flay asked Kairo.“She’s in... great shock. She must have exerted great effort to save her jewel and you fixed it faster than she can say, 'uncle.'”“So it IS purified?”“Right. But this core will degrade in time. There is a way to perfect it, but I suggest you keep things like this. After all, she will always need you in this arrangement.”“I understand.” Flay nodded.“How...?!” She trembled as she realized what was h

    The following day arrived. But to many in the Westerfort Heaven City, it was still the continuing sage that unfolded at night.Due to the chaos, everyone was wary and kept on guard.Everyone thought that another assassination would occur or feared that Asteria will finally lose her bonkers and start bolting lighting at everyone.And so, many of the nobles hadn’t even slept yet as the morning light shone.On the training arena reserved for the best elites of the Westerfort, the Diasons and the Tamers gathered once more.“Well, due to Count Sarfaron missing and him being a prime suspect in the assassination attempt, almost all charges of the chaos we had last night were dropped. The body double masks and other effects have also been found proving that the man Liathel wounded was in fact, a body double.” William reported.“And of course, our interference proved vital, and Asteria rewarded us and offered us a Baron position in the North with a high chance of becoming Viscounts.”“Viscount

    The Cardinal’s rise in his power shocked the group.After months of his power waning, the Cardinal suddenly found a means to empower and strengthen himself after taking in the pill!“I suggest you two take the pill.” Cardinal John chuckled.Almost immediately the two took the pills on their hand and shoved it up their throat.The eruption of death appeared as the power of Pluton coursed through their veins and began to attack the devouring poison.As the energy flowed through their finger tips, they could feel a counter push of power exploding around them.Flay tried his best to hide his expression but was equally stunned that the three began to rise in their cultivation rank.“What’s going on, Kairo? Is this real? That’s like an easy level-up! If all my allies take the poison and my pill, will they also gain such a rank up?”“Master, that is not the case. I believe these three have been taking various magical pills, plants, and went through a lot of cultivation training to keep the d

    Three antidotes that could cure the dangerous poison that was delivered through the most inconspicuous of means.A mosquito had been sent to poison the three generals.It was an ancient magic that made the Chimera’s poison alive. It fed and lived on Brute. As for the cure, it would take a very potent poison to counter and kill the poison.But as they went about in feeding and healing, Kairo suggested using an alternative to replace the poisons he used. For within them, was the most potent poison of all.Death.Using the energy of Pluton, Kairo harnessed it and created small pills that contained the Brute force of Flay, and a touch of Flay’s powers.And that was the perfect ingredient that would kill the devouring Brute poison that grew within the three generals. Death is the perfect cure for the evil, ancient living poison.The three pills were at the ready and Flay could even make more!“Is there a cure for this poison? Is not the son of the lion here? Can we not use him? Aren’t anti

    A vast amount of food was being delivered into the mountains behind the kingdom.Towards the hiding place of the Beastmaster Tribe, carts full of meals were being brought in.It was a surprising command that confused many in the kingdom. Beast meat from the stocks was all brought out.All they knew, was that there was a move to feed the many hungry lions.But what caused a commotion within the tribe of Beastmasters was the decision to bring in all the aggressive untamed beasts to be fed to the lions!Many among the beast masters complained even to the point that they were shouting at the tribe leader. The chief claimed that it was beneficial to provide a layer of goodwill to the lions.Darwood had appeared with the Vagrant Lion, which he had wanted from the start.Estelle also had another lion.But apart from them, the rest of the lions did not come out. Rather, the information that was leaked was that there were only three lions that were tamed.Flay was seen wandering a few times wi

    “WHERE ARE YOU?!” The lion roared in anger.Flay kept his green jewel out and kept taunting the beast.“Die!”BITE!The lion king quickly slammed at the attacker but it turned out to be one of his lions!Flay laughed and jeered as he disappeared and appeared elsewhere causing chaos once more.BANG! BANG!The lion king was sneezing, with eyes red and full of tears and various strange scratches he made.The irritation in his wounds felt as if there was still a bullet lodged inside and he was ending up scratching himself.The lions around him began to flee as the lion king began attacking the lions without thought.Falling into a berserk state, the lion was now biting and attacking anything moving around it.“ROAR! ROAR!”The lion king shouted.“DIE! DIE! DIE!” The lion thought of only one word as he attacked, bit, slashed, and clawed its allies.“ENOUGH!”All of a sudden, an enraged force erupted and gripped the lion king.He froze as he couldn’t understand what presence stood in front

    The lion king was greatly angered. He was also in great pain. He had shot forward with such strength and created a powerful crack on the rocks around their caves.“I bet those above are worried. That level of strength exceeds this prison. You could break through this little place soon, won’t you dear kitty?” Flay chuckled as he raised his green arm and communicated to the beasts.Most of the lions were startled as they understood Flay!“You... can... talk to us?!” The lion king roared in anger.“Now that I have your attention, I have a proposal.” Flay smiled.“A proposal?”“Yes. Serve me. Serve me as an ally. I know it would be beneath you to be a tamed beast, but I need you to be my ally in the coming battles.”“Serve you?!” The lion howled in anger.“Am I not worthy? You can tell my strength is even weaker than your cubs, and yet I inflicted a great injury on you and even brought shame to your Pride.”ROAR!FLASH!A bright light flashed right as the lion king made a quick pounce.Th

    The three generals listened and could not help but imagine what this meant. The Beast Masters always had a stock of powerful creatures that they had captured.Nearly a hundred high Adept-level creatures that could even challenge the very army were within the mountains of the Beast Masters. But there was never really a way to tap on all of them. There were numerous plans for an emergency release of them, but they were a wildcard that nobody really relied upon.But now, an entire race and collection of Lions were there.The Vagrant Lion was Darwood’s target. But there were numerous breeds of lions inside.The Dark Prowl Lion, the Horned Lion, the Fire Fang Lion, and a few other common breeds.If all were to be tamed as Flay had promised, it would present a significant increase in their forces and could possibly counter the evil lurking beyond the kingdom!“If what you sa

    The Lions, unlike the wolves, were kept in a lion's den. A deep hole was found on the ground and a cage was placed over the hole.The king and his escort followed but everyone else was ordered to leave. Nabal and those associated with them were also asked to stop following them and were ordered to deal with the repairs from the damages made on the gate.Vem was ordered to ‘take the day off’ and was not allowed to escort the Princess. Estelle had also shown her interest to have someone else replace Vem as their archer to which Expert Mage-Archer Samantha Umberton offered a more suitable candidate.What was frustrating, was that a total of nineteen wolves left the kennel and followed their respective Alphas.The Alpha of Darwood commanded four wolves, Ephesus and the two Elemental Brute Users had three each, and the Alpha that followed Estelle brought in six wolves!But despite the protest, the King and Primeroot had already given them clearance.Ephesus was smiling next to his master w

    Flay was even more intrigued.He had just shown the entire Beastmaster tribe his ability, yet they were certain he would die.He had just fought against an Expert, and while others were skeptical of his attempts, it was still a very impressive feat.“I guess I shouldn’t press my luck. Besides, there are more important matters at hand… This place has too many enemies. I have to also regain much of my lost strength and awaken the Eos System.” Flay decided. If this Chimera was something so powerful that everyone was convinced he was still inadequate, he would have to pursue other means to gain strength.“What is this… chimera?” Estelle asked in the midst of the angry accusations of Darwood and Trailtree.“My king… That is the beast that we have sealed long ago. The creature who was once sealed at the death of my great grandfather.” Primeroot finally spoke.“Trovine Primeroot… The greatest Beast Master who achieved the impossible and reached beyond Great Expert…” The King recalled.“Yes.

    Narood and the other experts and high-level adjuncts returned with a rather confident look on themselves. “It seems you finally are agreeing.” Flay smiled. “We will agree. That staff is too much of a prize for us. But... Instead of Tenscream, we will offer you another beast instead. An Expert just like Tenscream. But, you have to tame it. You are confident of taming them, aren’t you?” Narood smiled. “Hmmm... Depends. I’m not saying that I can tame any and all monsters. There are several that will take a lot of effort.” Flay recalled the monsters he faced in his world. Particularly, the Carcadon. “I wonder if they tamed him?” Flay thought to himself. The strange expression and distant gaze of Flay irritated the beastmasters. “Then since we are all agreed...” Narood smiled. “Go and start taming them. Of course, we will set a time limit. You have five minutes! Show us! Show us how one can be the pack leader of the wolves!” Narood taunted. Everyone gave a curious look at Flay. “He
