"Your deception is over August. We know you schemed to have Lord Xavier captured while lying to the public that he was betrayed by his own men.." Butler Nicolas stood at the entrance of the restaurant, as if saying;

'You want to leave? you have to go through me first!'

"Seriously?" August glanced towards Owling's direction, his face flushed like it was taking every fiber in his being not to explode into a fit of laughter.

"I had Xavier captured? aren't you the smart one here? don't tell me you believe something so absurd.."

"Forgetting the fact that I might have a motive in doing whatever deed you are accusing me of doing.. how the hell did I supposedly pull off a feat like that.. Xavier is a decorated Sentry, the Nation's Protector.. I am just the ambitious Captain of an X-rank Guild.." August sneered in a relaxed manner

"Indeed. If it comes to a one on one battle, you won't even last a single move. However knowing you, there's no way you'd make such an error.." Owling dropp

    "Seriously? you lot are just going to stand there staring at me like it's a contest? aren't you the upholders of justice?" August jeered mockingly, causing the Guild Captains to clench their jaws in rage. Fortunately all of them who were present were battle veterans. They could instantly deduce that August was merely trying to goad them into making the first move. Although his traitorous schemes were now exposed, that didn't make him any less dangerous. He was the Captain of an X-rank Guild.. an existence like that were rumored to possess the power to challenge an entire country without any foreign intervention. Although it was often regarded as an alligory, that went to show just how terrifying Captains from X-rank Guilds were. "Screw this!" one of the Sentries finally decided to make that first move. He was known as Loras, the Captain of a D-rank Guild. Lunging towards August, his storage ring glowed as a curved dagger slipped into his grasp which he slashed towards August n

A katana and a fist collided multiple times before suddenly coming to a stop as both opposing parties skipped back, drawing distance between themselves. "Oh?" August lips curled in amusement as he noticed the beads of sweat across Captain Saria's forehead. "Are you worried that you might cause more damage than good? don't worry I can tell that the runic matrix around us is sturdy enough to withstand anything you throw at it.." "... However I don't think the same can be said for me!" tapping his feet on the ground, August disappeared. "Hngh" flipping the hilt of her katana, Captain Sarai suddenly pierced it towards her right. "Nice try!" August suddenly arrived at that particular spot. The tip of the katana was merely a couple inches from piercing through his throat. However August footwork speed suddenly tripled as the blade missed him narrowly. Extending his right palm, he slammed it against Captain Sarai's face, as he sh

    "Huh?" the look of confidence on August expression soon disappeared a couple moments after. "What is the meaning of this?!" his expression went ashen. No matter how much energy he channeled into the longsword, not a single rune lit up. Forget partial activation, there wasn't even a single reaction. "What did you do?!" clenching his jaws in rage, he roared in outrage. "What I did?" "For somebody of your status, I thought you'd know about this fact by now?' the sneer in Captain Sarai's statement stroked August rage even more. "The situation is simple really. I have received the recognition of my artifact spirit, you haven't. As such no matter whether your enchanted armament surpasses mine in rankings, it won't mean shit. Right now, your enchanted armament is nothing but a useless hunk of metal.. " "No. No!" August expression fell. "You must be lying!" Channeling more energy into the longsword, a greenish halo surrounded its surface as an Hex Pattern appeared behind August wit

    "So I'm going to ask again.." Dr. List smiled briefly at Aiden. "Are you nervous because this is your first experience at therapy?" Aiden bit his lower lips. He appeared to be on the verge on saying something before pushing his lips as he nodded. Dr. List narrowed her eyes, easily seeing through his lies. "So I heard from your friend outside that you've been experiencing some mental nightmarish experiences?" Dr. List donned her professional face. "She's just exaggerating.. I was just having a bad dream. That's all.." "Heh.." Dr. List adjusted the rims of her glasses. "You aren't being completely honest with me. This surely isn't your first time experiencing this kind of trance like state.. am I wrong?" Aiden tried averting his gaze as his lips moved, obviously in the process of spewing another lie. However somebody else beat him to the punch. "Now, let's put that on a temporary pause and talk about you instead.." "Me?" Aiden was momentarily taken aback by the sudden transit

    "He must be dead.." Captain Sarai's lips twisted into a grimace of relief as she stared at the cloud of icy mist before her a couple distances away. "It wasn't so hard now was it.." her victorious grin was cut shot when she noticed a fluid sliding down from her nose. Dabbing it with her fingers, her brows furrowed. "Blood?" at that moment, her vision suddenly became fuzzy as she nearly tripped before finally finding her balance. "Tch. It would seem that I am near my limit.. " she clicked her tongue regretfully before glancing towards the rising cloud of icy mist. "Luckily I was able to dish out serious damage before my fumes ran out.." "Oh really?" a mocking sneer suddenly echoed, causing a shiver to run up Captain Sarai's spine. She instantly stomped her right heel on the ground, initiating a backflip as she landed a dozen paces away. She had only just done that when a heavy and equally fast object slammed down on her previous position. If she had been any second later, no do

    "Hmm.. from what you've told me so far about this Rio character, you envy him.." Dr. List observed Aiden keenly. They've been ten minutes deep in their therapy session and so far, she's succeeded in holding a two way conversation with him. For her, this was progress. "I envy the privileges he had. There was even a time when I wished to have his life.." Aiden shook his head self loathingly. "Oh? and why would you ever think of that? you have to know that no matter how it appears to be on the surface, nobody's life is a rose without its thorns.." Aiden's brows knitted as he adopted a serious tone. "Rio was different. He had everything I ever wanted.. loving parents who spent all their time doting on him, a confident social life.. if I started listing them I'm afraid I won't be able to stop.." "Hmm.. makes sense. However you mentioned parents who spent all their time doting on him.. do you mean to say they are dead?" Aiden nodded, causing Dr. List to exhale. "That must've been

"Hey, Aiden" a palm smacked his desk. The sound was so loud that it alerted the students in the class. "I heard in the past that you swore to attend Lancelot Academy? it's the number one school for Magis in the state you know?" a mocking voice rang. "What are you saying Rio?. Lancelot Academy is for Magis. You know I'm not" Aiden laughed self mockingly. Rio. He was a prodigy in the class due to the fact that he had awakened his meridans. That meant he had a high chance of becoming a Magi. As such, he was pretty popular in the class, with many girls swooning over him. "Tch. I heard your parents were powerful Magis before their deaths" Rio grinned."Shouldn't you have inherited th
