Chapter 180: Out of Plan
This made Amu's eyes flicker with rage.
A memory resurfaced again in his mind, a memory of the worst day in his life.
The golden light started turning color into reddish-black, and the circle with five pivot points now turned into six, giving out an eerie aura to the surrounding area.
Seeing the fanatical eyes, Alice decided to excuse herself, saying she needed to make sure the teleportation had no problem with his intervention.
In reality, Alice wanted to contact Alex, asking for his opinion. She feels scared of what Belthazar is doing.
She jumped out from the chariot, disappearing into the shadow of the night. But the king didn't care; there were other things he hid from Alice.
The reason Belthazar hid this was because he didn't want to be thought of as someone crazy.
Lately, he started hearing sounds inside his mind. A voice that he communicated with started giving him some knowledge he had never known before and also told him how to control his power.
The fabric of reality started to vibrate; at this moment, Aimu appeared, flying in the air. His hand grasping a battle axe, looking coldly at the king.
His voice boomed in the area, "How dare you cooperate with our enemies! You disappointed me!"
"Kekeke! Disappointed you? Do you think I care?" The king replied without feeling an ounce of fear.
Aimu looked at the fabric of reality that started cracking apart. It's like the air turned into a mirror and started shattering.
He recognized this; it's what happens when long-distance teleportation abilities are being used. A teleportation between solar systems.
His eyes turned sharp; he could not let this finish. The pattern on his axe started glowing, and invisible energy started coming out from it.
He appeared in front of the king, his axe cleaved down toward him, while he said, "Traitors should be executed!"
The king raised his bony arm, pointing it at the axe.
BAM! It met in the middle, and the result made Aimu frown.
A dark-like barrier appeared in his hand, clashing with his axe.
He expected he would be able to cleave the king into two with one slash, but instead, the king met his attack with equal strength.
If Alex were here now, he would question himself. How could he even think to assassinate the king with their power difference?
Meanwhile, in the forest, Alice was frowning. She looks at the fairy responsible for the teleportation.
The fairies were nowhere to be seen. Only their clothes remained on the ground
Logically, the teleportation should have been stopped now, but it still kept going.
The purpose of the teleportation was to move the king of the forest to this place to start attacking the sentinel; after some time, the other beasts would then start to move, attacking nearby settlements.
At this moment, the fairy would then come out, killing the beast and protecting the civilians.
Alice turned her gaze upward, looking at the six pillars of dark red energy. She then started sending a message to Alex. She felt something ominous was happening.
Back in the sky, Aimu started exerting more energy; his spirit weapon was different from the one he gave to the guardian.
His is a perfect spirit weapon.
There is a reason why he named it a spirit weapon; it embodies the spirit of Felidae that was sealed with its corrupt state.
This spirit is what allows them to use shadow glyphs.
Normally, the progression of shadow glyphs starts in an infant; the purpose of this is to condense their beastly abilities and nature toward this glyph.
Felidae will then raise this glyph as they grow and make it mature, turning it into a shadow beast.
This is also one of the reasons Aimu was really determined to recover his ability. Not only did he lose his ability at that time, but he also lost his best partner.
Even now, his partner still hasn't come back; instead, he made a new one with the spirit weapon.
His axe started vibrating, creating the roar of a beast. Black shadows started coming out from the axe, moving toward the king.
This made the king raise the dark energy output. He then detonated it, pushing both of them back.
But even this didn't stop the process of the long-distance teleportation; a black void appeared in the sky, and from inside it, a few creatures started coming out.
"FREYA!!!" Aimu screamed as his body launched into the air.
There is a special mechanism in his place that will send a message to Freya the moment Aimu says something on a special frequency.
The tree started vibrating, and the branches moved toward the dark opening in the sky. But before it could even reach the opening, something cut the branch into pieces.
Slash! Slash! The Dark Shilloute then runs away to the forest.
From the cut branch, a speckle of golden dust started spreading around the area, and then it started coalescing, turning into five creatures with the appearance of small pixies.
Their bodies were completely made of light, with four wings behind them. They flew surrounding the opening portal and started shooting it with a barrage of fire, ice, and wind. brought-to-you-by-MvLeMpYr
Meanwhile, outside the secret realm, Zold just returned after scouting the area.
"There are no more skeletons outside, and I found something weird. Do you think we should check it out?"
"Weird, how?" Emily asked with a raised eyebrow.
"It's something like a portal but different."
Quartz shook her head, "No, we don't know if they are really leaving."
"What do you think, Emily? You are the one that has faced that dark hunter before," Olivia asked.
"I still don't know for sure. It's just speculation, Sis. But if it's really him, I doubt he will give up when he is clearly winning.
This only means he has some other task in this dungeon, and us being here is just a coincidence."
She then turned her gaze toward Patricia, "Tell brother about this, ask him what he thinks."
Alex was now discussing their plan with Blaire, Lily, William, Aurora, and Sasha their plan. The place they will go and what they will do.
