The nobles had already started arriving.
Rin walked out of the mansion only to find a carriage waiting for him. He had to get inside the carriage to reach the destination which was no more than ten minutes ride!
He hopped into the carriage right away, biding the maid farewell. After that, she carriage left the palace and soon enough arrived at the venue.
Yes, it was another large palace-like building that was decorated with lights and many other things. There were guards all around but more than that, there were tons of carriages.
The gate was left opened to let carriages enter. There was a separate parking area for them, here too.
The carriage in which Rin was, went ahead and was parked were other carriages were.
Right after that, Dameon Recuim, the General of the Black Knights, who was standing to escort Rin, approached the carriage and opened the door.
“This way Your Highness.”, he said as one of his hands remained on the le
The orb identified the three people that were standing near the Queen to be vampires. Of course, another vampire just walked towards her, making their number increase by one. Now the queen was surrounded by four males, out of which, three were over 30 years while a single vampire seemed almost the same age as Rin. Rin slowly moved towards the various arranged juices that were placed on the tables and grabbed a glass of wine. And as he sipped, he kept looking at those four vampires and the Queen’s expression. ‘Hey, can you make it so that I can hear what they are talking about?’, Rin asked the orb. “Definitely your highness.”, right after that, the orb cast probably a spell on Rin due to which, his hearing capabilities increased. But due to that, he could hear all the talks in the hall. It was like torture to him. ‘Stop stop, remove this spell!’, he said right away. The orb did as he was asked. Rin then said, ‘Ph
The banquet progressed. The four vampires left with a bitter taste in their mouths. The Queen didn’t know what to do anymore.‘He didn’t know that they were vampires and ended up saying that…’‘But I can't possibly reveal that to him here…’The Queen thought of telling about the vampires sometime later after the banquet was over.However, Rin wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.He immediately asked her in a low voice, “Mother, why were the vampires here?”“Weren’t they the ones that imprisoned brother Ezek?”, he asked.The moment she heard it, her eyes were left wide open.‘He…’‘He knew about their identities…?’*gulp*‘No way, they were using high-level concealing magic…’‘Did he see through them?’, she asked herself.‘If that&rsquo
Rin was resting in the wagon when suddenly, he heard a loud noise from the outside. He could hear the horses and the knights running as if something was wrong. He peeked out of the window only to find many people wearing a black masks with a black dress covering their entire bodies. They were using their spells and were trying to destroy the wagon in which Rin was resting. A fireball almost reached Rin before which, one of the four knights that pledged their loyalty to Rin – Viola – who had placed first in the tournament earlier, reacted and protected him by summoning a barrier in front of him. Her grimoire was a shiny one, it was shining with yellow light. She chanted a spell – “First spell, Earth Barrier.” Right after that, a yellow-colored barrier appeared which surrounded the wagon completely. Thanks to this, none of the attacks damaged the wagon. Viola pulled out her sword and chased after two to three of
After finding out what had happened, the Empress immediately gave out orders to summon the vampires that were living in the guest houses. The vampires that were called were none other than the third prince, and his three bodyguards. Of course, they were giving guest houses or an entire building for themselves to stay in – as per their demand. She was furious about what had happened and required an explanation. Although she was in no situation to demand or ask anything from them as Ezek was in their custody, this gave her enough reason to capture the prince. The reason why Ezek was captured and the military of the Werewoll kingdom didn’t go to rescue was because Ezek was in the wrong. He infiltrated their kingdom which broke the peace treaty that had been maintained all these years. With all the witnesses and all the nations siding the vampires, the kingdom of werewolves couldn’t do anything. If they were going to wage a war, then all other nat
“Your Highness!” “Your Highness!” ‘I hear someone calling me…’ ‘But for some reason, I don’t feel like waking up…’ “If you don’t wake up right now, everything is going to be ruined!” He then almost all of a sudden opened his eyes only to find the orb levitating right in above his eyes. He then somehow got up and looked at the orb while asking, ‘What happened…?’ ‘Why am I-’ Before he could complete his question, the orb said, “Your Highness, you were struck by a mana disease which is quite common. But don’t worry, after experiencing it once, you won't have to deal with it again…” “But that’s not important right now your highness, you need to stop the Empress from making decisions hastily. She is deciding to wage a war on the vampires!”, the orb said. After realizing and hearing everything, Rin got out of bed. He opened the door and as he was just about to exit the room, he found two maids rushing
“So listen carefully…”, Rin then started explaining the strategy that he had in his mind. The generals listened to everything he said. He continued for a total of no more than ten minutes before finally stopping and asking for their opinion. “What do you think about this plan?”, he asked. The generals were surprised by the plan. It was quite unexpected and quite deep. Unless one is as intellectual as Rin, he cannot figure this out. Rin stood there smirking as the Empress and the generals were in awe of his plan. Without a doubt, they could see victory in their hands. Yes, the very generals, who were so against waging the war for quite some time, decided to wage the war with victory in their minds. With his plan, they thought that Werewoll wouldn’t suffer much damage and would still stand strong to fight other empires or kingdoms even after the war. In any case, the generals looked excited probably because the plan had a
Rin slowly moved his finger due to which all of those vampires were pulled towards one side. Rin walked down slowly towards them while saying, “Now reveal your true form.” He said while glaring at them. It was a sight to be seen. Rin didn’t have any spell related to telekinesis. But he could easily lift anyone using his aura after they have been affected by his skill Blood Control. As mentioned earlier, the bloodline spell blood control could control the blood. Since vampires and all other beings had blood inside them, he could essentially control them as well or restrict their movements. In other words, Blood Puppet was one of the effects under Blood Control. The citizens, that until now were shouting, shut their mouths and moved towards one side. Rin’s four knights followed him closely as he walked close to the vampires. They had already seen Rin’s spell earlier when he was ambushed but after seeing it again, they realized how terrif
“I have told you the truth, now please let me go…”, the vampire seemed desperate to live.“…”, Rin continued to glare before asking another question.“Is that all?”, he asked as he slowly increased the pressure on the vampire.His body began to transform again. Although this time it was slow, the fear existing from earlier made this much more painful.Rin had no intentions of letting someone from another race live. First of all, he hadn’t killed anyone while living in the human world. The first time he killed someone was when he was ambushed.The moment he killed, he couldn’t feel anything. It was just like crushing any insect and forgetting about it instantly.The same was right now. No emotion burst forth in his body. While being emotionless, he killed the spies and was now forcing the last spy to transform and die a not-so-quick death!“We-”*cough*
But the shock did not last for long as letting out a long breath, ron forced himself to calm down. He had been trained for incomprehensible situations such as these, and thus he knew best that he had to remain coolheaded.Losing his mind at the moment would not benefit him in the slightest.And so, lifting his head and staring at Ren right in the eyes, he coldly muttered."I don't know how you are alive...but it doesn't matter."Turning his head and staring at the building in the distance, calmness returned to his face."You think you'll be fine if you do anything to me? You forget who is inside of that building?"The edges of his lips curled upward. Confidence rose in his voice, as he realized that Ren couldn't do anything to him.The situation was strange. For Ren to have been able to get some people to lead him here, he definitely must've asked for a few favours, but that didn't He knew just how valuable his life was, and his death would only lead to his eventual death.Ron clicked
Excellent!"Joyously shouted Roseal as he stared at a small monitor before him. Extending from the monitor were multiple wires that attached themselves to an individual. Subject 996"Who would've thought that patient that I had put the least hopes on would end up being the one that I have the most hope for."He was truly delighted.Out of all the promising patients he had, 996 seemed to be the ones displaying the most obvious signs of success.At the moment, subject 996 was going through a virtual simulation. Inside the virtual simulation, then he was put under multiple different trials. The trails although different were all things that would cause any sane man to feel fluctuations in their emotions. From killing civilians to committing terrorist acts, or dying in multiple different ways.At the moment, both the MRI machine and Holter monitor were currently showing no unusual fluctuations. This meant that subject 996was currently in the exact state Roseal was trying to achieve.A sta
After killing multiple black-clad individuals, Reynold appeared before Emma as he heavily panted for air. "Huff…yes, thanks" Similarly gasping for breath and nodding her head, Emma's eyes darted all over the place as she looked at all of the battles happening around her. "What's going on? where are the professors?" "I don't know" Shaking his head, he looked just as confused as Emma… Logically speaking with everything that was happening around them, the professors would've already come down to help them as they wouldn't stand there and just watch the students die. It had to be noted that a lot of the students here were sons and daughters of very influential figures. Yet with everything going on around them, they still weren't here. That only meant one thing… Thinking that far, he clenched his fists and looked at Emma who seemed to have had the same thought as him. They were on their own… -Woosh! -Woosh! -Woosh! Snapping Emma and Reynold out of their thoughts, three streaks
As his emotions returned, Ren's face repeatedly changed as he felt his shoulder twitch uncontrollably. === -Clank! -Clank! -Clank! Surrounded by three black-clothed individuals, Reynold swiftly moved around his apartment hacking at them with his sword whenever he saw an opening. -Clank! "khhh…" Parrying his sword, one of the black-clad individuals signalled to the other two people to attack at the same time. Noticing their sign, Reynold forcefully twisted his body and defended against two attacks coming from his left and right side. -Clank! -Clank! "khhh…" Barely blocking the attacks, he took a few steps back as beads of sweat dripped from his forehead. Looking at the three black-clad individuals before him, Reynold couldn't help but curse. "Damm it" Whoever the trio was, they knew about his attack pattern and the sword art he used. From the way he attacked and his habits, they knew them all. It seemed that whoever they were, they had done their research on him and had c
With Emma in his arms, pain flashed across his face as his body trembled uncontrollably. Then, raising his head and staring at the sky, towards the red mass in the far distance, Ren screamed at the top of his lungs. "Haaaaaaaa!" His desperate and pained cry resounded through the whole world. * Inside of a tent, not far from where Ren was. A male stared at the panel displaying the battle that was ensuing. His eyes were devoid of any emotions. There was deep ruthlessness hidden within them. Staring at Reb who was mourning Emma's death, the male did not feel anything. Rather, there was a trace of disgust on his face. Tapping onto his right ear to cut off the communication device, he took his eyes away from the screen. "...How useless." His emotionless voice rang through the room. "You had one job, and one job only. Defeat him, yet, you let such emotions sway you. How many times does this make it?" Deep disappointment flashed across his eyes as he stared at a small flask in his
Slowly, cuts started appearing all over his body. For the next minute or so, Reynold was slowly but surely being driven towards a corner. To the spectators, it looked as though he was about to lose.But."Tsk."He suddenly clicked his tongue. Almost instantaneously, a tremendous hue wrapped around his daggers.Taking a step forward, his body suddenly melted into the darkness.SHIIIIING!Appearing right in front of them, Reynold thrust his daggers forward as he performed an odd combo. His first strike was a powerful strike that shot up like lightning, followed by consecutive strikes that could seemingly sever rivers.With each strike, the dagger's pattern became more and more eccentric. At one point, one of the daggers followed a path that was similar to that of a snake. Almost impossible to predict.Under the barrage of attacks, Aerin and Nicholas both cooperated and tried their best to defend themselves against Reynold's weird attacks.However, they knew that they were once again at
Bang bang.Everyone's eyes focused on the arena. This was one of the most anticipated battles.[Aron vs Ren]Already ten days had passed in the blink of an eye and according to the people, these two people were tge strongest.*"Ha, I have to end this battle soon.""Monarchs's eye."—Rustle! —Rustle!The rustling sound of vegetation being pushed to the side echoed across the surroundings as two figures stood on opposite ends.Standing on one side was Ren's cold figure, whilst on the other side was Aaron."You shouldn't have let me catch up with you."Aaron playfully smiled.In response to Aaron's provocation, Ren's face remained indifferent as he coldly said."Move out of the way.""…Oh? Why should I?""…"Ren did not respond.Placing his hand on the sheath of his sword, he started channelling his mana."Hmmm"Feeling the fluctuations coming from Ren's body, Aaron's face became serious. He soon disappeared.Just like before, Aaron reappeared right in front of Ren. Thrusting his dagger
His body twitched with annoyance as the white reaper felt his other's emotions run down his body. The Duke's resistance irritated him. "It's funny how you think you can do something to me now that we're both in the same ranks again. You couldn't do anything when we were of the same rank before, yet you think a small power-up would make a difference?" his fingers pressed against Duke Azenoch's arm as he squeezed his hand. The Duke's face changed, but his hand continued to squeeze before it compressed it completely and he was able to close his hand into a fist. White reaper could feel the bones of the demons crush inside the palm of his hands. "Don't annoy me any further." Pulling his hand back, the hand tore off of the Duke's body and blood began to slowly spill out. his other self glanced at the torn-up hand for a brief moment before throwing it behind him, only to see it stop mid-air and fall at the same pace time was moving at. The same could be said for the blood as it rema
But that wasn't what concerned Lightning Dragon. His concern was that the White Reaper on stage wasn't the one he had fought. 'His mana control, it's completely different from when we fought. In addition, he moves a lot more efficiently than in the past. Every one of his movements seems to be perfectly calculated, and...hm?' His thoughts paused for a second. Leaning his body closer, his eyes opened widely as he pressed his hand on the window to get a better look at the fight. 'Wait…' His eyes slowly started to enlarge. "That…" Opening and closing his mouth, his face paled as he came to a sudden realization. 'He's standing where he was at the beginning of the fight.' No, rather, he was only one step ahead of where he previously stood. This… Who in the world was this? Was he the White Reaper he had once fought? 'Impossible.' Lightning Dragon shook his head. The undeniable reality in front of him shook him to the core. It was at that moment. "Enough!" He was jolted out
