122 Ch. 122 'Zehell'

It has been almost half an hour after they finished breakfast, but Lionel still hasn't done anything.

At the moment, Niken and Kazuto sat together on the rocks watching Lionel. They were pondering why Lionel stood in the middle of an open field as if waiting for something.

Previously Lionel seemed to be speaking thoughtfully through his foni stone. It seemed like Lionel was contacting someone - a distinguished individual because they have never seen such an earnest and respectful look on Lionel's face.

Who did Lionel contact? And why does Lionel act like he wants to keep it a secret?

Although they were curious about Lionel's actions, the two did not think too much about it.

Niken wondered when the training would begin. She was also still very curious about what was meant by his mentor, who wanted to test her magic power.

Throughout her life, she always thought the foundation of her main strength was elemental energy, just like the Elementalists in common. Turned out, her main foundation strength was based on magic.

But because the magic that time-controllers have was minimal and thin, people couldn't sense their magic cultivation. They also could not create magic circles, so time-controllers were considered ordinary Elementalists.

Niken even doubted that Nishian residents and her parents knew about this. Does his mother also identify that the foundation of their strength is magic?

Thinking about her mother, Niken couldn't help but missed the queen. She was sad all over again, thinking she wouldn't be able to meet her parents. She hoped Muyun lied to her. She hoped her parents were still alive somewhere.

Kazuto felt the gloominess of his inamorata, so he embraced her firmly and gave her a light kiss on her crown.

"What do you think, sir Lionel doing out there? What took him so long?"

"At least we could stay here longer than usual. I like cuddling up with you here."

Niken chuckled as the man tightened his hug.

She remembered this morning event where the two men engaged in hot convo. What were they talking about? She was really curious.

Niken was even more startled when she realized the gaze of death given by Kazuto towards Lionel. If a stare could kill someone, then maybe Lionel had long dead by Kazuto's gaze.

Niken couldn't help but tease her lover, so she raised a hand to block Kazuto's view.

"Am I no longer beautiful, so you look at other people?"

Pfft.

"Ah?"

"You've been looking stiff. What's wrong? What happened? Why are you staring at Sir Lionel like our enemy?"

"I don't consider him an enemy."

"Then? Do you not like me having magic? "

"It's not like I don't like it, I feel happy and proud if you actually have magic."

"But?"

"I just don't like the way he treats you. Looks like he forgot that you are a girl."

"I know that, but still, I don't like it."

"All right, whatever you wish, mister. But what is Sir Lionel doing there? Didn't he say he wants to test me?"

"I have no idea. Maybe he changed his mind?"

"Sir Lionel is not a person who easily drifted away. If he has decided, he will definitely do it no matter what kind of changing situation occurs. After all, he always considered many things before making a decision."

"..." Kazuto said nothing more and only watched Lionel's movements closely.

"What kind of attack would Sir Lionel do to me? He doesn't have magic, right?"

"Maybe through the magic tool. Do you forget he has a wristband magic tool? Maybe he will use it again."

"Aa makes sense."

Kazuto and Niken were still chatting casually when the sky turned dark. Gray clouds appeared, followed by the sound of lightning that shouted to each other. Niken and Kazuto looked at each other at this dramatic change in the sky.

"Will today rain?"

Boom! Bzzzt!

The sound of an explosion like something crashing - breaking into Lionel's defense shield was clearly heard. Then suddenly, a figure of a young man emerged from the sky landing hard on the ground, making a strong wave of force.

Kazuto covered Niken by his own body against the force that hit his back straightly. Lucky, his physic was sturdy enough to restrain the power.

After the force subsided, Niken and Kazuto observed the intruder from head to toe.

His hair was spiky with maroon color, and his eyes were green like emerald stones. His face was stunning with his good looks and well-formed frame, making Niken sure that there will be many young girls who will fall in love with him at first sight.

Of course, for Niken, Kazuto was still far more attractive and muscular than the young man.

The man put on a tilted smile when he opened his eyes and saw Lionel while all over his body had flowing electric waves ran from the tip of his head to his feet.

Wait a minute!

How did that person get in here?

Once again, Niken and Kazuto looked at each other before simultaneously looked towards the sky. And sure enough, the yellow shield dome now had a huge irregular hole.

Is this person an intruder?

Kazuto gathered his energy then formed it into four shadow wolves protecting Niken.

"Calm down, Kazuto, he is my acquaintance," Lionel said calmly but did not lessen Kazuto's vigilance. "I really hope you can come in normally."

"Hey, I'm in the West region. I have to use my teleport if I want to come here in half an hour. What do you expect?"

"All right, it's up to you. Looks like I have to fix the hole." sighed Lionel in a tired voice, seeing the big hole of his shield.

"No need to bother. I will fix it for you."

The red-haired young man turned his hand towards the shield's hole, and then a last phase of blue circle appeared at his feet.

Magic circle! That person is a wizard??

Shortly after that, the hole has closed entirely as if there were no holes before.

"Done. Isn't that great? So what do you want from me?"

"That girl." Lionel glanced at Niken, who was still stunned in her place.

"They are wizards."

"You knew right away? Wait. What do you mean with 'they are'?"

"Those two kids obviously, is there anyone else besides them?" sarcasm the red-haired man.

I knew it! Kazuto is also a wizard! Exclaimed Lionel secretly.

"Do you think you can test them? I want to know how high are their levels of magic."

"What for? Just one look, I can quickly measure it. Both have passed the green stage."

Lionel could barely hide his delight at hearing this news. Who would have thought Niken was a wizard? Moreover, Kazuto, an Elementalist Knight, was also a wizard!

Calling this person here is indeed the right decision.

"Then, I will need your help."

"My help?"

Lionel explained his intention to train Niken to build her defense aura and create the time-spacial. He also shared his desire to develop Kazuto's potential to use both sources of strength.

"You want him to combine magic and elemental power?"

"Right. If you can do it, he can do it too. "

"I am the second caste wizard just in case you forget. Thus, I was able to combine them. He is a descendant of a wizard, but NOT a wizard. The blood of a wolf running in his body is more dominant than the blood of a wizard. He will not survive."

"He is an Elementalist knight."

"It will not change the final result."

"He can summon the Supreme Alpha."

"..."

Lionel could not read the mood of the young man because the man's expression was very flat.

"Zehell?"

"Is that girl the boy's inamorata?"

"Yes?" Lionel did not understand why Zehell asked about his student relationship, then he shuddered in horror when he saw the young man's gruesome smile.

"Heh... very interesting."

Suddenly the atmosphere around them became suffocating and felt heavy. This feeling was similar to when Lionel activated the gravity technique making Kazuto's and Niken's bodies feel oppressive.

Inevitably Kazuto was wary of Zehell as soon as he felt the intention of killing the aura emitted by that man.

Isn't this red-haired lad, Lionel's acquaintance? But why now the young man wants to kill them?

Lionel's mouth fell open when he saw Zehell's spiky hair rose as the electricity flowed was so overwhelming.

"What are you doing?"

"I want to confirm something."

Lionel was stunned to hear that. He was genuinely grateful if Zehell himself had tested Kazuto's and Niken's magic capabilities, but ... isn't this too much?

The two of them had never used magic before. What if they don't survive Zehell's death attack? Plus, Zehell did not want to hold his power and used one of his proud skills!

Lionel could not help but feel uneasy and worried about the two teenagers. Lionel wanted to prevent it because he could not bear to see this imbalance of power. He was about to speak, but Zehell beat him to it.

"Don't die on me, love birds."

BOOM!!
