"Master, an urgent message has come from the City of Antavale." A body formed of hazy shadows lent a jade slip to a person who was sitting on a lotus position under a colossal olden tree. The person opened his eyes and the world suddenly turned quiet. The wind stopped its gales and the weaving leaves calmed. This person was a white robed youth who seemed to not be over the age of 20 at first glance. But when one looks into his eyes, they could see the vicissitudes of time revolving around that pair of enigmatic globes.
The white robed youth looked unto the jade slip on his hands and seeped his spiritual consciousness unto the object. When he was done, an obvious frown marred his handsome face.
"Send Lukas to the City of Antavale." The white robed youth instructed the lone
The future of Lukas was simply limitless. That was why she had grabbed at the earliest opportunity to capture the heart of the young man. Others may have scorned at her actions but she knew full well of her limitations. She was stranded at the Peak of Essence Gathering Realm for a long time now and hadn't made the littlest of progress. The two had been together for almost 10 years and were madly in love with each other. At least that was what she showed on the outside. She had hidden her genuine feelings very well."I love you, Ethel!" Lukas pronounced and gave the love of his life one last kiss before he stood up. He picked the fallen jade slip and was gone with the wind after another breath passed."I love you too, Lukas." Ether muttered inaudibly as she too vanished fr
The two looked at each other's eyes and silence reigned between them. There was no need for words to be spoken after they exchanged their innermost thoughts. Fade, who was a bystander to this dialogue, stayed quiet through it all. She was wise enough to know that any interruption would not be taken that mildly by her two seniors."How long had they been fighting, Master Zeke?" Lukas asked after a full minute had gone by. He watched unto the distant battle and regarded the energy signatures each combatant was releasing. They were alien to him and found that every single entity was using the elements with a hundred percent efficiency. The finesse that they commanded unto each summons as they bend the forces of nature onto their will was signifying war veterans who had faced innumerable wars. Lukas could not even say that he could match their skil
"That would be the simplified version of it. To be able to measure the exact essence and its varied strengths with that number of light elements, then instantly react to it without any visible damage after. I dare say that it would be impossible even if they do it a billion times. That would never be conceivable unless…" Lukas intruded and rambled on his thoughts freely. He scanned the place with his spiritual sense and was shaken at what he saw."I leave the protection of the city in your able hands, Master Zeke." Lukas hastily spoke and was gone in mere breaths without even waiting for the response of his mentor."What did Lukas see that made him act that way?" Zeke mumbled the question. He tried to use his elemental affinity with nature as his body began to shin
"I want to know if you are somehow related to the battle that's happening right now." Lukas said in a nonchalant voice."Of course, we are. The one fighting those bad guys is my brother. Fiona and Ash are also fighting. They're our pets and could fly high everywhere in the sky." Uwyn replied to Lukas. Her bubbly character was rather unbecoming of the elegant avatar that she wore."Are your pets that dragon and horse?" Lukas readied his next question to the forthright gorgeous woman and pointed at the place where the battle was still as heated as ever. The fully armored white horse was throwing astronomical wind blades that cut through anything on its path. While its adversary was seated comfortably on a throne made of marble as glaciers of rock blocked the attacks of the
"Slave?! You must be mistaken, noble heroine." Maru responded to the woman after he got over from his shock. He was having trouble understanding the words that she said. All he could see of her was a dark mist that covered her form. Maru was sure that she was one of the cultivators in legends. He had finally caught sight of his first heroine, one of the obsessions in his dreams. Maru was excited but also a little put off by the concealment she wore."Do you want to break through her disguise, Maru?" the voice of Madame Ais interrupted Maru's thoughts."Ye… No, Madame Ais. Don't." Maru had wanted to see the woman but decided against it in the end. He thought she had her own reasons why she chose to hide herself behind a cloak of deception.
"Wait! Sto…" Maru's voice halted after he felt a wet tongue languidly caress the open wound on his left hand. The feeling was so intense that he closed his eyes for an unknown amount of time. And when he opened them again, a pair of beautiful orbs gazed back at him. The fog that covered her face was no more and Maru saw an angel like no other. Her fragrance spread and unknowingly affected the little brother of the only male in the area."I can heal on my own, noble heroine!" Maru hastily worded and turned around with his back facing the woman. He tried to hide the sprouting tree that had vertically stretched to its limit. The dazzling clothes he wore were quite loose that helped him cover his embarrassment. Maru was thankful for this small lucky break."Please cure
"There was a man earlier who talked to my sister, Uwyn. You'll get to know her later. The man was strange. And he seemed to be investigating this area. I want you to capture him for me, Fade." Maru said his wishes towards the attractive woman who asserted to be his slave.This was the only thing he could think of that could help him get rid of the woman and at the same time satisfy his curiosity on the identity of that unusual man. He was throwing one stone to hit two targets. Maru smiled because he was pleased with his brilliant idea. He congratulated himself to no end."As you wish, Sire!" Fade responded immediately and then faded out of view."Fade?" Maru took one peek behind him and released the
"I would like to sit down and answer those questions, Master Lukas. But I cannot make my master wait for long. Will you go with me peacefully or not?" Fade replied to the series of enquiries that affronted her."There is no need to play games, Fade. Get me to follow you if you can." Lukas answered back and closed his eyes in meditation. He had tried all there was possible but this barrier just won't budge an inch. So conserving his reserves was a better choice than wasting it at pointless struggles."SIZZZZZZ!" the shimmering beams of the translucent prison swelled in one grandiose flash before it totally dwindled and was gone from the scene."It seems like I was wrong in my assumption. Master reall
