THIS IS A PROOF OF AGREEMENT THAT ___________ OF ____________ HAD A DEAL WITH THE MAN THAT GRANT ALL WISHES. THIS PROOF CAN NOT BE NULLIFY EVER.HE, _____________ OF ____________ AND EVERYTHING HE STANDS FOR AND IS WORTH WOULD BE BOUNDED TO LISTENING TO THE MAN THAT GRANT ALL WISHES AND ORGANIZATION BEHIND HIM ANYTIME AND ANYWHERE.HE IS TO DO EVERYTHING THAT IS REQUIRED OF HIM EVEN IF HE SUFFERS SOME LIABILITY WHILE DOING IT.THIS MATTER EXTEND TO HIS FAMILY–AND TOWN IF HE IS RELATED TO THE HEAD OF THE CITY.ORDERS ARE TO ADHERED TI AND FAILURE TO DO SO WOULD RESORT TO DEATH.That was the full content of the letter and what he would have signed to if he hadn't been stopped, Elaris gazed at the young man and couldn't feel it in himself to be sorry for him as continued to shake in shock.The weight of everything was just settling on him hard.“Aren't you just the worst scums?” Oliver asked sarcastically and the men cowered in fear when they saw that their secrets had been exposed.They
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 50: Rex
“I quite understand why we aren't going with them to the branch because we should keep our identity hidden but why do you have to put both me and Oliver in the same room?” Ashton asked and Elaris scoffed at amusement, Oliver also scoffed in irritation too.“You make it sound like I wanted to be in the same space as you,” Oliver shot back and everyone of them turned to continue watching the entrance, expecting the members of the hall to enter the hall after a successful raid. “But there's nothing you can do about it because the room is my good luck charm, you wouldn't believe the amount of copper coins I have found since the time I started staying in the room, maybe I would fully immerse myself in it and let the luck rub on me.”“I knew that you had no noble intentions of staying in there, why on earth would you pick copper coins?” Ashton unraveled his fan and covered half of his face with it and once again Oliver tutted in irritation.“Maybe because not all of us are the son of city l
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 51: The Fraud & The Lord
The event hall used for the social activities of Genius Circle Hall had been decorated up to its best, it was made in such a way that it was fitting for the merchants of the city.“The merchants are a lot, they won't stop coming in,” Tarex said. “I didn't know that there were so many merchants in the city.”“It is hard to know when they aren't coming together to a place at once.” Oliver shrugged and Lan raised a brow.“Why? You would think that these lavish men love to party,” Lan said, staring at the men wearing the best of the best things that the city had to offer.“Of course they love to.” Ashton replied. “But it is just that this happens to be a city full of prideful snakes and insecure rats.If a merchant wants to host a party that he would invite some of his customers and his wife would be present-–which either or both is available most times,—then it is in the merchant best interest to invite only merchants that were below his level or a few ones that are on the same level as
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 52: Yet Again
“Finally! We are going back!” Ashton said as he mounted his horse, he unraveled his fan sophisticatedly and Lord Rades stared at him in amusement.“You make it look like we haven't been treating you well during your stay,” Lord Rades replied.“Maybe you haven't, I had to share a room with this leech.” He replied glaring at Oliver who glared back at him.Rex was standing off to the side with a scowl on his face, he hadn't been able to convince Oliver to stay back in Embrayl and now he was following them too out of sheer suspicion.“Didn't matter if you wanted it or not, like I said, Genius Circle Hall is my good luck charm, I have never seen a lot of coins around like it did in Embrayl.” Oliver said before he walked to his horse which was standing beside Ashton's. He crouched down and took something from the floor. “For example, this again.”He raised another copper coin to them and Rex couldn't stop the groan of exasperation. Oliver removed a pocket and raised it in the air.It was fu

“And that we can't do,” Ashton replied and Rex scoffed.“What I just saw didn't look like something that you can't do. Everyone saw you when you channelled your energy to those knives.” Rex motioned to the knives which had gone back to looking ordinary.Elaris had also walked closer to them, and he had a blank look in his eyes as he continued to stare at Ashton.“I had no idea how that was possible, one minute I was fighting an assassin over there and the next minute I was here and blocking the assassin with knives and channeling into it.” Ashton's voice was also laced in confusion as he stared at his hands with furrowed brows.“Are you telling me that you suddenly did it out of the urgency you felt to save us? It doesn't work that way. Energy is born with people and it has been known for the past centuries that Astradians aren't born with it, talk less of channeling it.” Rex said.“Can you do it again?” Elaris asked and Ashton shook his head when he tried and was able to come up with
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 54: The Connector
“Care to tell us what happened now that all of us are here?” Rex cut straight to the chase when everyone was sitting at the field where Caden used to train.Caden had made everyone go to sleep the night before because he believed that it was late and things like this were better discussed in the morning.Then he had made sure that the five of them were gathered before he allowed himself to be asked any questions.“It happened all of a sudden, at least a month ago?” Caden scratched the back of his head as he mused over the timeline. “There were these guys in the market and they seemed to have kidnapped a child. This place is close knit and it was immediately noticed that these men were strangers and the kid had been deceived by them.”All the four men looked at each other with silent understanding, Elaris furrowed his brows while Ashton couldn't control a frown too.They didn't expect that the men would stretch their capabilities to a city with less crowds.“There aren't some men prete
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 55: General Blackwell
Elaris’ eyes went over everyone who was present in the room once again before he took a step forward and properly entered, Caden was hot on his trail since he did that at the same time and closed the door behind them.“Grandfather,” He bowed to the older man who was wearing his armor. Elaris figured that he must have visited some city lords or the Dean, maybe he just did some early rounds.Despite his old age, he was a huge man who sat perfectly straight, his sharp eyes burrowed into him but Elaris didn't flinch under his heavy gaze.His head was lowered respectfully but it was obvious that he wasn't cowering, he remained in that position until he finally cleared his throat and addressed him.“Max told me that you have changed your name once again,” he said and Elaris straightened himself.“Yes.” he replied, his gaze went to Max for a fleeting moment and saw that he had a sardonic smirk on his lips.It wasn't hard to figure that Mad had ratted on him because the older man had expresse
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 56: Journey
Elaris blinked once, then twice as he stared at the second woman who he had started to see some similarities between her and Jaxon.The similarities between her and Max weren't that potent but that was because Max looked especially like his mother while both Jaxon and Elaira took after their father, Dax was a mix of both.Now that he knew her relationship with the household,it made sense why she felt the need to take part in their discussion and pitch in her opinion on their trip to Nethrowl.Caden had once told him that he had a stepsister,he just didn't expect that she would be off in the military with General Blackwell.Even though Hila hadn't said a single word since they entered the room, it was not hard to know from her body language that Elaira was someone that she respected and it wasn't out of fear or status.He half wondered if they had another person to deal with.“It is a pleasure to see you again, grandfather, but I would like to start making preparations for our journey

Chapter 68: Brave Cowardice
Rule #10; Never trust your teammate or your partners in the desert of Faded Mountain. Not because of their cruelty but because of the desert’s credibility.The group had remained around each other in order to be able to defeat the beasts, it was easy for one person to distract them while the other attacked from behind, they were creatures with no brain so they had no idea that it would be better for them to help one another.The controller must be feeling so frustrated.Elaris glanced around the group as he got behind another outlander and stabbed it deep in the back, he peeped from behind it and observed the group.Yute was helping Hete out of danger while the rude guy stabbed the outlander who tried to get him, the leader was acting as a decoy while the gentle one stabbed another titan from behind.Elaris smirked, the controller was really angry at his pets.He got away from behind the outlander as it fell to the ground, he removed his sword from where it was lodged on its back and
Chapter 67: Outlanders
Rule #7; Before entering the desert of Faded Mountain, visit those who came back and ask them about their experiences, it is very important that you know everything and anything you could know about the desert.Outlanders.Creatures that tumble on the fine line between human and beasts, their body is that of a woman and a beast combined. Their limbs were that of animals, giving them sturdy movement while their head and the upper body was that of a human, giving them the flexibility they had.Outlanders were creatures that gave off extreme fear just by seeing them alone, they were abnormal to humanity, what made the matter worse was that they didn’t have any brains but they had emotions. They could laugh as they were killed and cry when they were killed.Some of these outlanders were kids but because of the way they were, their growth was abnormal and they could stand tall to the level of an adult woman while their faces still carry on the smallness and innocence of kids.Their hands a
Chapter 66: Rules of Desert of Faded Mountain
Elaris stared at the desert in front of him and exhaled heavily, the land spread wide ahead and there was no trace of any other thing than the desert that he was seeing.At one glance, the place didn’t look dangerous but Elaris had heard about the story of the place from his father, it was a very unpredictable place where people could die without knowing what killed them. It wasn’t the sort of place that he could just bring either Ashton or Caden to.He was a dead man anyway, but the others were great assets to the empire and they would bring about many great changes. He could die with a little bit of peace knowing that they were out there somewhere and didn’t like the bad things that the Visterian king was up to.He started walking forward, taking one step after the other without catching the sight of anyone. He was all alone here and that was what made him even more vigilant because he had to watch out everywhere.He hadn’t even gotten halfway and was walking beside a cave before he
Chapter 65: Heatstroke & Discussion
Both Caden and Estrina glanced at each other nervously, before nodding at the same time as if they were giving each other the resolution that was needed.“Since I am going to benefit from whatever is done today, I am not going to let fear be the reason why it is impossible,” Caden said, and Estrina nodded in agreement.“Since we are on the same page, you can start now. Just do it just like you were told, don’t think, block out every sound and let it all come to you effortlessly.” Elaris instructed as the both of them closed their eyes and put to good use, the explanation that was provided to them earlier.“What do you plan to do in this city? Something tells me that you are not here only for Caden’s first channeling,” Ashton said but Elaris didn’t say anything, he only focused harder on the two people in front of him.Ashton only sighed when he figured that Elaris wasn’t going to say anything.“Alright, I would trust you to tell me before you start though, I don’t want to get into tro
Chapter 64: Forms
Every one of them assumed a fighting stance as they readied for the attack of the wild animals, their eyes glinting dangerously as they prepared to kill them.Oliver had already taken out his rope, Rex had his sword out, all the ones with the military had their sabers out while Ashton stood vigilantly with no weapon in his hand while Elaris rested his hand on his sword.But to all their surprise, once the animals saw their pose, they retreated back behind the housekeeper and stared at them.“What is with the hostile reaction? This is your surprise!” The man had the nerve to look like he had been deeply betrayed by them.“Surprise? How about I slice your head off your neck as a surprise for your surprise,” Azacia asked angrily, she was already marching forward to the man who was stepping with the animals and Estrina quickly wrapped her hands around Azacia’s arm to stop her.“I don’t mean any harm! This is a nice kind of surprise in Nethrowl! The animals aren’t going to do anything to y
Chapter 63: Morales & Surprise
Ueaz glared at him as if Caden just said something to offend him while Estrina also frowned but Azacia hurried to defend them all. “It is not stealing if you return it once you are done.”“Besides, if they didn’t want us to steal it, then they wouldn’t have placed it in the middle of the yard and say that anyone is free to steal it.” Ueaz shrugged and both Estrina and Azacia nodded.“That doesn’t automatically give you a pass to rob them, you don’t see anyone stealing Astrad city treasure,” Caden argued.“That is hard to decide since Astrad doesn’t have any treasure of any sort, even money is hard to find in that city,” Oliver replied and Caden glared at him.“That is beside the point.” Caden said.“No, that is the main point.” Rex agreed.“Let us just go and find a place to stay for the time we are here,” Elaris said, bringing their attention away from what they were discussing, he needed to find a good place to help Caden do his first channeling so that he would be in time for the s
Chapter 62: The Violent Harsh City
Nethrowl City; the third city on the pyramid in the empire.It was a city that shared a border with almost every city in the empire, a very dry, rocky, harsh city with harsher dwellers. The places in the city that weren’t often visited or lived in by the Neths were spiked with thorny bushes and their houses were mostly wood because any other form would cause too much heat in the harsh city and those houses were painted in mostly brown and grey.The whole city is surrounded by the scent of heavy metal and everything about it was hostile; it was strictly advised never to bring an adult who couldn’t watch after himself, talk less of a child. The city was recorded to be the dwelling place of great generals and many warriors when the Slave War broke out centuries ago, it was chosen because the open desert space was close to every major city which allowed the soldiers to enter any city quickly once help was requested.Centuries later, only people whose upbringing was similar to the harsh cl
Chapter 61: Prideful Soldiers and Mindful Warriors
Elaris studied the man and nodded in agreement when he saw that he had no killing intent on him, he was staring at them with renewed admiration and gratitude.“If you are okay with that, then yes.” He said.The man waved at him. “Nonsense, I am note that okay with it,what kind of person would I be if I allowed you to wander at night when you saved my daughter's life?”“And whose fault is it that we might go out so late?” Rex said grumpily.“uh, I apologize for that, I apologize,” he said. “If you would follow me.”He started leading them out.“How far is your place from the city center?” Ashton asked.“Not too far, but no worries, I would send word out there that no one should block your ways.”“We are perfectly capable of protecting ourselves,” Rex frowned.“We are still getting the ashcrawler money right?” Oliver asked as he adjusted Caden who had fallen asleep again.“Of course, I would make sure that it would be sold at the best price, first thing tomorrow morning,” He answered.“
Chapter 60: Poisoned!
“The poison backfired on the girl, didn't it?” Elaris asked suddenly and the man’s weapon stopped a few inches from Caden's neck.His eyes widened in shock before he whirled over to turn to Elaris, the others exhaled in relief, they were also shocked that he went for Caden instead of any of them but when they thought about it again, it wasn't surprising.“No fair! Trying to hurt the only lady among us.” Oliver scolded as he moved closer to Caden to check his condition.The man’s attention was on Elaris who met his gaze confidently.“H-how did you know about that?” He stuttered and Elaris stared at him from head to toe once again before he shrugged.There was a faint scent of blood and poison on the man, but the splashes on his clothes were bright red that might have been gotten on his during the hunt for a killing but very dark red that a poisoned person coughed out.His sudden request for money also solidified his suspicion, of course, they were bandits who tried to take something fr
