The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 26:The Cave That Hunts
“This Abode Cave is the most dangerous place you can ever wander to in all of Astrad, and judging by your luck to be here I must say that you are really something.” Ashton said as they continued running. Elaris didn’t bother to reply to him. “This place wasn’t always like this, it was one of the most pleasant places to be at but it was often visited by women only, men didn’t have time to sit at caves and gossip. That would just be abnormal. There is also a stream where women bathe so even if they wanted to, they would be labelled a pervert, the women would have a lot of fun and discuss their problems and it was nice.Until one day, some unknown men came into this cave when there were a few women who were bathing and brutally molested them before they were killed in the most gruesome way possible. Those men were never found but since then the ghost of those women have always hunted this place, the stream they usually bathe in has turned to pure red since that time and has never changed
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 27: Bird’s Normal Signature
A pelk bird was a bird used to send and receive information, they were extremely useful because it wasn’t a place they couldn’t go to and back from and there was no information they couldn’t gather.A pelk bird can protect itself in front of the biggest danger that even a man can never survive and had a lot of tricks up its sleeve which made it even stranger that it was lying docile in this part of Abode Cave.The birds were extremely useful but they were scarce to find and only a number of people owned them and there were even a fewer number of people that had ever seen them.“Why on earth is it here?” Elaris mumbled to himself and Ashton raised a brow at him in amazement.“You even know what a pelk bird is?” he asked with wide eyes.“You do, why shouldn’t I?”“The only reason why I know is because I am a member of Fragile Souls establishment and I have seen the deputy leader use it once or twice before,” he answered and Elaris stared at him with no words, it wasn’t like he could tel
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 28: Legitimate Member
“Caden, you have the nerve to train for your military nonsense when your brother is practically lost?” Jaxon asked as both he and Dax came to see Caden who continued to practice his moves.“He is not a kid who can’t take care of himself, not everyone is like both of you,” Caden’s voice dripped with sarcasm as he answered them without paying any attention to where they were.“I heard from the maid that it was the both of you that went into the woods to look for Pat together but now only you replied with the butler? Where is your brother?” Dax asked, Caden only awarded a glare in their direction before he decided in his mind that they were not worth wasting their breaths on.Dax who had expected Caden to panic and cower at their presence like he always did was angry that the man dared to irritate him, he folded his hand over his chest and narrowed his eyes at the man before he barged in his direction before he went to stand behind him and Caden who turn to swing in direction could only

“Don’t stain my shoes,” Ashton snapped at Dax while he continued to grasp a dirty hand fan tightly, Caden couldn’t help but scoff at him.“What do you think that you are doing?!” Phina screamed loudly as she started running towards Dax who was lying on the floor just some feet away from Ashton who stared down at both mother and son in disgust.“You-” Phina said and stood up to go to Elaris who simply raised a brow at her as if he didn’t just beat both of her sons to pulp.“I would advise about getting close to him, Mrs. Wilder, Elaris right there beat up women too. I can see it in his features,” Ashton said which made Phina hesitate in her step before she turned to glare at him but Ashton only smiled at him, a smile that made his eyes small and squinted.Phina scoffed before she turned and continued her way to Elaris which made Ashton smile drop and he scoffed at her too.“Don’t worry, he only beats up bad women, you are not safe.” He added and Phina turned to glare at him once again
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 30: Go Asking For Trouble
They didn’t retreat to their rooms but the backyard instead, the weather had turned cooler and nicer as night approached so Caden had gone to train again, dragging both Elaris and Ashton along with him in order to get an explanation about what happened at the Abode Cave.The Abode Cave was an extremely sacred but evil place and he still couldn’t shake off the shivers that settled on him ever after seeing both Elaris and Ashton in blood and flesh, they had some cuts on their body but it wasn’t something that would last for a long time and he was extremely glad about that. If they had been wounded grievously except from the danger that it imposed on their lives, he didn’t want to imagine how smug the Wilders would have been.“Anyways, those assassins we met before you left and those who chased me to the caves weren’t sent by the Wilders,” Elaris said after explaining the whole ordeal to him and he quickly turned to furrowed his brow at him, holding his sword firmly in while breathing ha
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 31: Not The Last Chance
Ashton hurried back in the direction of the places that he just left, it wasn’t long before he was heading in the direction of both Elaris and Caden’s room. His intention was to inform Elaris alone and they would know what to do because going to Caden would be a big mistake.As he rounded the corner that led off the hallway of both Caden’s and Elaris’ room, he bumped into Caden who seemed like he got up to do something, the latter stared at him in confusion as if not believing that he was there for a minute.“What are you still doing here? I thought that you had gone home,” Caden asked but Ashton didn’t answer him, he just took his hand and directed him to Elaris door. Without bothering to knock, he opened the door and entered, Elaris who was meditating quickly opened his eyes and raised a brow at the interruption.“You should listen to your own lessons and let one of your older siblings teach you manners,” Elaris said and Ashton took a brief second to glare at him before he remembere
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 32: Annual Military Competition
“I don’t know which pull the crowd most, the military or the Academy, I have to make sure to pay double the amount to the man in charge in order to get us to this front seat,” Ashton complained as both him and Elaris finally managed to get to their seat, both of them heaved in relief.“At least most of the crowd at the academy are the students,” Elaris stared around. “It seemed to me like all the people in the town had taken a day off to come and watch this.”“Common people think that Academy exams are boring, it is for the culture and you would sit still without getting a lot of excitement as they continued to do a roll call, they would rather stay back and sell things at the market.”“So they are all here because the Military competition is always interesting?” Elaris asked and Ashton nodded.“It is almost like a fight to death without the killing aspect and I think that it gives them a rush to know that the ones who would be protecting their borders are strong.”“That’s just pitifu
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 33: The Audience Beg To Differ
“I would avenge my father through you!”“I would give my father some piece to chew on by sending you to the other side.”Both Caden’s competitors said at the same time but the guy just stared at them blankly and scoffed mockingly before they attacked him.Both of them were expecting him to be swinging his saber in that awkward bad manner that he used to swing it but to their surprise, he had a perfect control of his swing and his footwork, his eyes were focused on them and he wield off all their attack and even managed to drop an attack of his own on the two men.Both men jumped back and took a minute to observe that they had grossly underestimated their opponent before they caught themselves and attacked together but this time Caden was waiting for them with an attack of his own, as soon as their move missed and he delivered his, he kept pushing them into defense, they didn’t even had time to launch an attack of their own.The lanky man narrowly escaped the saber from cutting through

Thwack!As slap that resounded through the whole forest like explosive met the cheeks of the woman whose body and face were still hidden under her long black lace gown and covered face, her face was forced to turn to the other side because of the effect of the slap, but she still continued to struggle even as she was shoved into a room that had no doors or windows and four men stationed themselves at the entrance and stare directly at the woman whose hand remained tied tightly behind her back and legs firmly put together, with the scarf of her dress covering her eyes, her vision was cut off from the rest of the world.“Goodness, you are really something; do you think that we wouldn’t catch you even if you escaped back to your city lord, Princess? What happened to those wanderers you met at the forest, went back to their cities, didn’t they?” The man who remained squatting in front of the woman taunted, but the woman in front of him only looked the other way and refused to answer him,
Chapter 89: Lestria Nerith
They watched as the swirl closed on them and tried to put a barrier or summoning their energies to take a form that would at least weaken the impact of what was coming, but no matter what they did in the direction of the force, it didn’t dissipate and there was no sign that it was being weakened, it still continued to charge towards them in full force.Just as it was about to hit them, a blast of crackling thunder appeared about them and white light shot towards the swirl that was closing in on them and stopped it in place, the men at the other side also increased their capability but another cackling light shot to the one which was already stopping the one there in the first place and the swirl was forced to shatter and burst, which made the men who attacked to stagger back as they stared in shock because they didn’t expected that their force would be stopped just like that.They conjured another one with higher capability but this time, there was simply a slash in the direction of t
Chapter 88: Reckless/Brave Princess
Every person could channel energies if they tried, and made it take a form if they tried harder, but what took a lot of concentration and determination was using a skill for the form. Every single form has its own skill and most of the time, these skills overlapped each other or are the same but some skills worked better for some form than another.The skill that these men used further confirmed that they weren’t just low level kidnappers because the skill called Wander was an extremely hard skill to master not to mention that all of them had mastered it and were using it as a group attack.It is a skill that require turning their form into a force that continue to move around until it strikes the opponent it was targeted at, it was one of those skill that it was hard to evade and once it strike the opponent, it caused them to be unconscious if they weak and render them unable to move if they were strong enough but there were some people who would still be able to move eve after they
Chapter 87: The Victim & Her Helpers
Traveling around Nethrowl wasn’t easy, but Ashton made sure to continue to drag Caden, Oliver and Estrina around the whole place. The best place for practice was the forests where there were a lot of beasts like the ashcrawler they dealt with on their way to Nethrowl and beasts who were fiercer and had different attributes than the ashcrawler.Ashton was doing this in order to ensure that they were all trained and get good control over the forms of their energy, it had been over a month since Elaris left without disclosing his destination and he would be damned if he came back and saw that there was no improvement.He got some strange news from his master the last week about strange things that happened in the desert and Faded Mountain, the whole Fragile Souls Establishment were scrambling around to find any information they could get on controllers whose aim for meeting up and controlling a whole horde of outlanders were still unknown.Two of them had been caught and placed in tortur
Chapter 86: Decvil’s Tower
The only land in Nethrowl which was under shade and had protection from harsh weather, a perfect tourist center or vacation place Neths don’t want to go too far from their city, the air was crisp and cool and for a while, he just continued walking without meeting even a single soul. Everything was dead silent even though Elaris was sure that he had entered Decvil.Maps were the easiest thing for him to follow because once upon a time, it was the only thing that he could firmly depend on when taking a journey, his sense of direction is top notch and he had absolute confidence in it.Elaris passed by a small stream and waited as he searched himself for something, he removed the small container that was given to him by Radai and opened it before he took the cure of the disease in his hand, he just stared at it wordlessly for a while reliving the matter that led to the event that made him still have it.Elaris had given it to Areth for consumption and he collected it at first, but then he
Chapter 85: Scattered Informants
The journey down the mountain and out of the desert was easier than when Elaris came in, yes, he had to deal with a few outlanders and he had to wind through a storm of sand but it didn’t take him long to arrive outside the desert and at the edge that led to Nethrowl city.Alone by himself with the necklace that contained the ashes of five brave people who had painstakingly gone on a journey that fulfilled nothing while also claiming their lives, he couldn’t bring himself to breathe in relief to appreciate the scenery or the environment that were much less harsh when compared to the desert. He still had things to do.He walked a bit further from the forest and it wasn’t long before he arrived at a small town which had a scarcity in the number of people walking on the street and looked like a mini version of Nethrowl’s capital as far the atmosphere was concerned, fortunately before he could walk further he saw a shop that he was looking for, he entered the shop that sold all sort of th
Chapter 84: The Last one Off
Elaris, his partner and Radai hurried to the gate with their might, kicking the crazies blocking their way away without lingereing too much, there was no need to fight them anymore because the number advantage was greatly against them, the most they could do was hide when needed and run when concerned. It would be their end if they were caught.Suddenly Radai’s movement slowed down considerably, which made Elaris turn to look at the man, without asking any question he dragged him behind a stone with the other man and the three of them hid there.“What is wrong with you?” Elaris whispered, in order not to get the attention of the crazy people with his voice.“I think the disease is acting up,” Radai replied and the temperamental guy glared at him.“Are you nuts?” He asked. “You gave us the stupid cure, don’t tell me that you haven’t swallowed at least a dozen of it.”“Uh… I think it must have been when he held me earlier, I just realized it now but his hand was sweaty and strange when
Chapter 83: Out of Control
Everybody froze with complicated expressions on their faces, there was no saying if they should advance forward and bash the two men standing with their back against each other or withdraw to their master who was already bleeding from the thin slice on his neck.There was a dead silence as everyone continued to stare at each other, Elaris and his partner continued to advance backward and near the houses, it was easier to find an escape route around their than at the front.“Boo,” Radai said, and Eadai glared hard ahead since he couldn’t turn his head or he would risk detaching his head from the body.“What the hell are you doing?” Eadai asked, his lips trembling as he clenched his hand tightly.“What does it look like, brother? I think it is self explanatory,” Radai replied.Elaris and his partner had walked a considerable distance from them all but then all the soldiers standing at the rare gate also came forward and stopped behind them.“Your time is up, you have pranced around for
Chapter 82: Subduction
It wasn’t the time to show mercy or try to play around with the men, so Elaris and his crew fought their out of the group that surrounded them, cutting them down furiously and not waiting to check if they were dead or not, the major concern was to leave Faded Mountain as soon as possible.“You can survive life without your brother, yes?” Elaris asked and Radai snorted.“How old do you think I am to ask that question? Two?” Radai fired back.“Who knows, you might have been accustomed to him taking care of your needs that you wouldn’t want to leave him, there are all types of twisted reasons and love flying around.” The temperamental guy fired, hitting one man’s neck with his knife before he stabbed another.“I am not that attached to being lazy, besides, it is if I leave that I would be able to use medicines as much as I would like to.”“You could have fooled me,” Elaris replied as he slashed two men who rushed over to him.There was no need for any accursed mercy right now, they would
