Henry was still standing in place, with a blank expression on his face, and an unconscious Ralph on his face. Early had a worried look on his face as he looked at his friend, confused, and all the other in the blimp looked confused as well."c'mon Henry, we've already lost Annie and Sidney, we can't lose you too!!!" Earl complained as he looked anxiously at his dazed teammate."This is a first," said Mr. Stevens with a smirk, "looks like you guys are done huh?" asked the prime general with a smirk.Soon though, a figure stepped into the light with blood trickling down his nose, it was Ralph's dark-haired companion, Lan."that guy..." said Earl as he looked at Lan, puzzled, '... He never once stood out so I don't know his alchemy or anything, did he do something to Henry?' thought Earl as he started at Lan with suspicion in his eyes.'where am I?' thought Henry as he walked in a black space, devoid of any image or light, the only thing he confirmed the presence of was the floor beneath
Mr Adams and Miss Edna, were both seated on the floor on animal fur in a wood shack.In front of both people was herbal tea, and sitting opposite to them was a bald headed man who looked about 90 years In age, and having a hefty beard.Mr Adams sat on the floor with a smile on his face, he was knelt, rather than seated, and picked the herbal tea up off the floor before taking a few sips.Miss Edna on the other hand crossed her arms and legs, and had a stubborn look on her face as she looked menacingly at Borak.Borak on the third hand, sat almost identically to Mr Adams, with a smile on his face, and with a few sips accompanying his beaming aura.The three sat in silence, leaving only the sound of the crackling fire at the fire place to be heard."So... Mr Borus!!..." said Miss Edna in a suspecting and menacing tone, "it's actually Borak" said Borak."yeah whatever.." brushed off Miss Edna, "... So you're telling me, that you trapped us in that hell!!! for a month plus!!! Just so that
Ruby was sneaking up on team Crystals flag silently, she couldn't tell it's exact location, but she could damn well tell that it was within all these tall grass.The problem was just that, the tall grass, she's been wandering in what she thought was the right direction for almost an hour, and she wasn't sure if she would be finding it anytime soon.Not at least until she heard the tall grass moving, and saw multiple things approaching her, while one in particular was running off.'am ambush?!!!' thought Ruby as the floor beneath her feet shot her up into the sky, above all the tall grass, giving her a clear view of everyone that approached her.'four attacking from all directions, and one running off with the flag huh?' she thought as a smirk clinged unto her cheeks, "lets go then?!!" grinned Ruby.**** Mr Adams, Miss Edna and Borak all sat in the hut, all with thoughts racing through their minds as they looked at the items in front of them.An empty vase, a glass cover for said vase
The announcement from Miss Kayla rung through the entire stadium, shocking, exciting, and satisfying not only in it's sound, but in it's affect to its' participants."HELL YEAH!!!!!" screamed Ruby as tears rolled down her face, "we... Did it.." Henry managed to let out before falling unconscious completely."we really did it!!" said Annie in a shaky voice as she tried desperately to hold back her tears."this risky plan really worked?!!" said Sidney, who had a beaten up face and puffed up lips."this things finally over huh?" asked Austin as he let out a sigh.Rocky, Feather boy and Steely all clicked their tongues in annoyance as they looked away from a disappointed William."Nooo...." said Lan in a disappointed voice as he fell to his knees, and slammed his fist into the ground below him."damn it!!!!" said Ralph under his breath as he got up from the floor and began reverting back to his normal self."we pulled it off!!" said Damian as he patted Austin on the back."this damn thing
Chapter 73: A bet won"now listen closely Mr Adams and Miss Edna, I'm not going to say this twice" said Borak as he put away the previous instruments he used and lit a scented candle in the room."as you know, the ORA have been in existence for a long time.For those who don't know, when a democratic system of governing alchemy was first being introduced, there were two major political parties involved.The first, and the one who won, was the All Alchemy Organisation or AAO for short, and the second, and losing party, the Order of Regulating Alchemy, or ORA.After their loss, the two parties clashed severally, leaving ORA with spoils on their side, and being forced to disband.. Which they did.However, a few years later, about 10 to 30 or so, the organisation returned.. but not as the Order of Regulating Alchemy.." said Borak.".. As the Organisation of Rouge Alchemists" said Mr Adams, completing his sentence.".... This new group had.. Other plans than controlling the Alchemy world,
"I knew Leon, because we grew up together in the same town" said Mr Adams."me, him and another one of our friends Norman, were all great friends, and we usually did everything together... But.... There was something that both me, and Norman noticed about Leon.." said Mr Adams as he held his hands together.".. And what's that?" asked Miss Edna, "he was a complete and total prodigy, if that's what you want to call it anyway!..." said Mr Adams as he looked up at Borak."he holds the record for youngest Legendary rank alchemist, ever to exist!!" said Mr Adams."wait really?!" asked Miss Edna in shock, as she had never heard of him, despite now hearing such a prestigious and impossible record was held by him.As mentioned earlier, it took years for a advanced tier adventurer to achieve king tier, and even more years to achieve Super.So it was nearly impossible for people to achieve Legendary rank in their lifetime.And not just because it was difficult to achieve, it's just that people
Races.. Commonly described as a large group of people distinguished from others on the basis of common physical characteristics, such as skin colour or hair type.But it is not only humans that exist, there are different species of creatures... From great allies of mankind, to the most dreadful monsters to slaughter them.They vary, in size, height, language, culture, and of course, appearance.And each one was born with the primary instincts, to survive.As a result, many wars arose, the most dreadful being the Retusian war, which claimed the most lives of all the races.And after the battle spewed much blood on all sides, the races agreed to coexist separately, and not interfere with one another.And so, with the establishment of the four great human kingdoms, Helbrand, East Wind, Grandour, and Frrist, so did the other races separate into their own kingdoms, and so did each race slowly forget one another, as though the other never existed.Although it was still taught in classrooms
The prime general's car just pulled up a few feet away from the chaos that was the battle between the students and the criminals.Surprisingly enough, a good number of unconscious and possibly dead criminals were laid face down on the floor, and only a few students had fallen."what the hell?!!!" said the prime general as he kicked down his limo door and looked all around him, witnessing the horrendous scene in front of his eyes."Gustav get out here!!!" he yelled out, making gustav immediately step out the drivers seat and head towards him."sir, this has to be Roji's doing!!" said Gustav as he looked around, feeling disgusted and uneasy."that bastard!!!..." said the prime general as his eyes laid on Rocky's body, and the gaping hole through his forehead."... There's only one person I know that'd be able to do this..." said the prime general as he took of his jacket, and loosed his tie, while pulling off the top button of his inner shirt."sir you don't mean..." asked Gustav, "...
With the pact made amongst one another, talks about the ORA continued, and eventually everyone started sharing their experiences specifically with them.One-way or the other, it eventually divulged into a topic of backstorues, making all the students share details of their transformations during the search for Sidney and Earl.They all were glad to hear that Williams lost his stutter. Hearing his back story and what happened to him only lit a fire in their hearts concerning the ORA.They'd hated them deeply already, but to think they'd take advantage of abandoned children like that... It reminded them that there was nothing the ORA weren't willing to do for their goal.Giving them all the more reason to train and become strong enough to fight them and take them down.Henry revealed the promise he made with his village elder, and everyone showed their support, especially Crystal and Ruby.Earl, Sidney, Annie, and Ruby never knew anything about this, and how could they? Henry was always
Jake laid down on his back, completely shocked silent. He watched Earl distinguished the attack he would've hit Jake with, before smiling and saying the words, "I win."It took a moment for Jake to realise it, but he'd lost the match. The final match in the mini tournament that they were holding, he'd lost that match. He'd lost to Earl.He was completely shocked by the whole thing. The moment he and Earl's fists collided, he felt the brunt of Earl's attack send him flying backwards, and he saw Earl fly off too.But it seemed Earl either recovered insanely quickly, or Jake was thrown a lot harder by Earl's attack than he would've liked to think he did.Before he knew it, Earl was standing over him with an attack ready to be launched straight at him.For some reason his mind went back to when they were kids, back when he'd bully Earl, call him names, and always boss his around because he was stronger than he was.He then remembered the fight that happened back in the entrance exams, the
"Flaming lotus!" Said Earl. "Vortex!" Said Jake. "Whoa!" Said Sidney, "what the hell are those moves?" He asked. "I don't know... But this is getting fun," said Crystal.Both Crystal and Sidney knew that Earl was going to lose the contest no matter what. It didn't really matter what happened when it came to him, he'd already lost two matches, nothing could make up for that now.However the situation for Jake was different. If he won, he would 'officially' be the strongest soon to be second year student in the entire school.Earl wasn't fighting to win, or at least not to win the current mini tournament they were all having. He was fighting for his pride, he was fighting to win and prove himself.Jake was fighting for the same reason. For the longest time he'd been on top of Earl when it came to power and fighting prowess. Ever since Earl got his alchemy, he'd been growing extremely fast, but he still hadn't been able to beat Jake once.This fight wasn't just for the title of strongest
As the smoke cleared from the battle fought, on the floor was Jake and Sidney, both with satisfied looks on their faces.Earl and Crystal had their mouths held open in complete shock. They had a feeling the match would end quickly, but not in one attack.Both of them had their mouths held open in complete and utter shock and confusion. Crystal slowly turned to look and Earl, and Earl slowly turned to look at Crystal."That was..." Said Earl, "... So cool," said Crystal. Their shocked expressions slowly turned into huge smiles."Those guys are crazy," laughed Crystal. "I know right... They're even crazier than I am," said Earl with a huge smile on his face.Both of them hopped down from the training dummies and made their way over to the middle of the training grounds.Sidney and Jake were both huffing and puffing on the floor, breathing heavily. Blood ran down the side of both their faces."Wh-what... are we gonna... do now?" Said Jake. "What do you mean?" Said Sidney, "I won that fig
The explosion was large and huge, far bigger than what anyone was expecting. Not Jake, not Sidney, not Crystal, not Earl.However as the dust slowly settled, the aftermath came into view. The dome of crystals that Crystal had made to protect herself from Earl's attack was shattered to pieces, with only a few stems of crystals sticking out of the ground.Earl was standing there, with his hand held out, and with dust all over him. He began coughing as he waved his hand in front of his face, trying to clear away the dust.It didn't work very well. Earl opened one eye, looking at the place where Crystal was supposed to be. The dust hadn't cleared up, and as a result, he hadn't seen her to confirm she was down.'On second thought, maybe I used way too much firepower,' thought Earl, 'I hope she's okay,' he thought to himself.As he looked down into where she was once—the shattered dome of crystals, he saw a silhouette, one that closely resembled Crystal. It wasn't moving, and it was laid d
Sidney was there, holding himself up using nothing but one of his hands, and with a crystal spike not too far away from his throat, he accepted whole heartedly that he lost the fight."I can win her in close quarters combat," said Crystal. "That's probably what you were thinking right?" She smiled. Sidney couldn't help but see the irony of the whole situation.He'd known that the Lloyd's were stronger than normal, but he'd put his hopes in his enhanced body holding out. And it was the right call at the end. He bet on himself and won.His enhanced body proved strong enough to withstand the 100% force of the Lloyd's, but what he'd misjudged was Crystal's battle iq.She waited for the instant his hand made contact with the floor and picked her moment to strike perfectly.As Sidney remained upside down, he dispersed the mana he'd gathered in his throat, allowing the tiny alchemy circle to show itself.A mouth came out from the alchemy circle, biting repeatedly like a pair of jittering tee
Earl was panting on the floor, pinned down by a butt load of straw, which doubled as the other end of Sidney's arm.Earl messed up. He'd let the curious side of him out too much, egging Sidney on to press on the offensive. This was what ultimately caused his failure. Earl hadn't even shown all the tricks he had up his sleeve. But to be fair, neither had Sidney, both men had simply fought, and one ended up being the winner.Earl didn't feel bad in the slightest though. The thrill of fighting Sidney for the first time left him with a smile on his face."That's the match!!!" Yelled Jake, "Sidney wins, and Earl loses!" He added. "You're amazing, Sid," said Earl, wide grin on his face as he remained pinned down. Sidney reverted back to normal, the straw dissipated.He walked over and held out his hand, "that was a lot harder than I expected," he smiled. Earl grabbed his hand, Sidney pulled him up."So you can like, transform into Gy now?" Asked Earl. "It's a new spell I got," said Sidney
Chapters 225: A winner, Earl Vs SidneyCrystal still stayed in shock as she slowly turned her head around to see Jake. He had most likely used his wind to slow his fall so that when he landed next to her it would sound like he was farther away.She was still completely capable of fighting. They'd only just started the fight after all, and she hadn't shown all she had to offer, but the fight was already over.If this was a real fight to the death, he would've lopped off her head in that moment. Perhaps she was just overconfident before, but she'd been sloppy in her first match.No, she couldn't even make herself think she would've done better. There were still two people she would fight later, she could show more of her power then.As for now? She'd totally lost. A smile sat on her face. "Whoa... You weren't playing around," said Crystal. "I kept your face in tact, now you can seduce Henry another time without worrying about how pretty you are," Jake smirked."You think I'm pretty?" As
The rules of the mini-tournament were clear enough for everyone to follow. Whoever won the most battles would be the winner, and the ones who lost the most would be the fourth strongest.Though it wasn't completely official, it was still going to be had. The four of them knew that the difference in power between them would most likely be miniscule at best.Crystal was a natural talent, and she came from the family of the Lloyds, known for being incredible combatants. She was bound to be one of the strongest in the school from birth alone. Jake was the epitome of hard work. Luck was on his side from the beginning, so he was something of a big fish in a small pond.But now that he'd been introduced to the river, he still held his own. Wind alchemy wasn't seen as something incredible or noteworthy by most, but Jake had changed that fact in the minds of the students.He'd held his own as one of the strongest people amongst them, and he didn't look like he would stop growing anytime soon
