After being incited by the Priest, The resident of the city all surged towards the city lord’s house, pelting his door with stones. Their demands echoed through, as they kept insisting that the demonic human that have entered their city be surrendered to them before further tragedy befell their small community, even the City Lord guards at the front gate of the city lord’s residence tried different Efforts to calm the agitated mob, but they were met with aggression, forcing a retreat back inside the safety of locked doors, as the chaos outside grew louder. --Inside the house, the clatter of stones reached Alec and the city lord mid-conversation, prompting a pause as the city lord raised a hand for silence, straining to discern the source of the disturbance. “My lord, a riot is escalating outside as the citizens clamour for your guest,” the head guard reported, bowing respectfully. “The guards may struggle to maintain control if you do not intervene soon.”The head guard said, co
In another region, Arthur and the ten mages he chose for his team could be seen dressed in shining accessories as they travelled on a carriage. They made sure to show off their attire, that even the mage who posed as the rider of the carriage had a lot of shining accessories on him, as they continued on their journey, they felt the carriage come to a sudden stop. The mages inside the carriage all smiled when they saw the determined look on Arthur’s face.“Get ready, our bounties are here,” Arthur said, his face taking on a fierce expression.“Halt, get down from the carriage and surrender all you have with you, and we might just decide whether to let you die painlessly,” One of the men blocking the road said, they were all wearing dirty clothes and brandishing weapons, with sinister looks on their faces. And in just a matter of seconds, the entire carriage was surrounded by their crew.The bandits eyed Arthur as he emerged from the carriage first, his shining gold accessories maki
The Priest was shocked to see that Alec was still capable of summoning three more golems. After the encounter with Titan at the temple, he had been quite cautious of Alec, but when he considered the amount of power that Titan had displayed, he was confident that Alec would not have another golem as strong as him. However, now he witnessed Alec summoning three more Tier 3 golems that emitted the same eerie vibes as Titan. The Priest could only stand his ground because he had brought two Tier 4 mages with him, he was grateful that he had requested for two of them, as he believed that if he had one mage less in his quarters, he would likely lose this fight.Just as he had failed in the sneak attack at the temple, one of the mages brought by the Priest expressed disdain towards Alec’s Tier 3 summons. “Just a bunch of Tier 3 summons and some leftovers, we should take care of them easily,” the mage remarked as he dashed towards Alec and his golems.“I shall take care of that one, you tw
Alec sighed at the priest’s attempt to use the kid as a hostage, thinking he was going to yield to his demands.“Please let my son go, I have been loyal to the Sect since you arrived, I have even donated blood to the Sect, I am a loyal believer of the sect, why do you have to take my son hostage?” The mother of the boy pleaded as tears rolled down her eyes. She hugged one of the Priest legs, only to be yanked off as he kicked her away, acting irritated by her touch.BANG!But that little moment of distraction was all Alec needed to send in a Terra bullet at him. Since it was his earth innate ability, it had almost zero casting time and was fast to emerge. The reinforced Earth bullet was shot at such a high speed till it found itself lodged into the shoulder of the priest who was still holding the boy.“Ahh!” The priest shouted in pain as he watched a bullet pass through his right shoulder, breaking his shoulder bone. Before he could raise his head up, he realized the child was alr
#Inside a particular house in the Royal Academy, The crackling flames in the hearth wrap visitors in a warm embrace upon entry, Intricate carvings of flames and fiery motifs adorn the walls, creating a fiery and vibrant atmosphere. The study is filled with shelves holding ancient scrolls and tomes brimming with spells of fire magic, and a large obsidian altar which is surrounded by burning candles and offering bowls emitting a scent of smouldering embers.In the study, two men were present, one seated and engrossed in a magical spell tome he was reading, while the other bows his head respectfully. The man bowing just so happens to be Bolton Blaze of the Ancient Blaze Clan, and the man reading the magical tome is his uncle.The same uncle who had saved him when he had been threatened by the fourth elder of the Gordons Clan, the moment he went after Alec in the capital. He was also the one who had even used his connections to secure an exchange opportunity for Bolton at so he could
Alec’s entrance into the temple had been swift and direct, as he moved devoid of any hesitation or consideration for stealth tactics on the Evil sect. Charging through the front doors, he was met with the sight of over two hundred mages scattered throughout the premises of the temple. Although the Priest remained unseen, but Alec was certain that the him and the other top-ranking members of the Evil sect were likely within the temple. “Spread out and eliminate all those who bear the Evil sect insignia – show no mercy, for they are enemies of great consequence,” Alec commanded them as the mages started dashing for them, as he swiftly unsheathed his Changdao and clashed with a towering Mage that was closest to him and wielding a massive great sword. In a deft move, Alec flicked his hand conjured earth shards that moved to blind the mage eyes, before swiftly changing the direction of his Changdao, and thrusting it down his heart. Surveying the chaotic scene before him, he observed h
Alec moved swiftly through the crowd of mages, leaving the clearing of the mages chasing them to Sword Saint and Magnito by his side, as his only focus was solely on eliminating the top brass of the Evil sect. As he approached the door, five mages stood in his way, but Alec wasted no time in tightening his grip on his weapon and unleashing swift slashes.By leveraging the length of the Changdao, Alec executed agile maneuvers as he expertly took down the first four mages with precision. And with a swift motion, he positioned himself to thrust the Changdao deep into the fifth mage's armor, targeting a vulnerable spot in the heart region.As the fifth mage lay on the brink of death, he managed to utter, "For the Sect, To eternal life," before his final breath. Reflecting on the extent of brainwashing within the Evil sect, Alec muttered, "What have they done to you?, This is another level of manipulation," his thoughts drifting to the villagers who were beginning to exhibit blind fai
The mages charged towards Alec with weapons drawn, but he met them with a smile, as the sound of their clanging weapons filling the air.Alec skilfully deflected their attacks with his Bone Katana in one hand and the Blood Changdao in the other, he had summoned the Bone Katana from his space ring. But despite the cracks on the Bone Katana, Alec had remembered Zack Gordons’ words that it was a weapon that would evolve alongside him, and he was only starting to believe this due to something he discovered recently, so he knew it won’t just spoil that easily.While the Bone Katana’s durability paled in comparison to the Blood Changdao, his recent revelations from the Golem technique manual that is passed down among the Gordons patriarchs suggested that Alec could enhance its strength. And that is why Alec remember Zack’s words, making him have confidence in the Katana’s potential.Watching from a distance, the priest observed Alec’s impressive combat skills, as it felt it would be nearl
