Chapter 210: King's Decree and Spell Conjuration

Supernatural Territory, Scarlet Banes Kingdom.

BAM!

A door suddenly got slammed open as three Werewolves enters,

The three Werewolves have one Alpha amongst them and one of them carries a scroll in their hand, they bust into a building as if they own the place.

"Bertolf! Come out!", one of the Werewolf shouted.

His voice reverberated through the inside of the building,

The building they are in is an abandoned dealership building, based on the furs and wooden furniture inside it shows that someone lived here.

A Werewolf live here,

This place is not that far from the castle where King Baralt resided, in fact, it's very close.

All of the Werewolves look to the surrounding warily, they can't even see or sense any presence inside this building making them frown.

"We have a decree for your trial, come out and do not resist us", the Alpha added.

After waiting for a while with no sign of Bertolf, the three Werewolves wanted to sweep this building but then suddenly a shadow can be seen moving around the corner.

Just behind an abandoned car, the group of Werewolves saw a shadow moving.

This makes them alert, "Bertolf! Come here this instant and honor the king's decree!"

The shadow turns out to be a Werewolf,

Its blue eyes glares at the group of Werewolves that barge into the building fiercely, the Werewolf then slowly came out of the dark.

In front of them, a big Werewolf appeared from the darkness.

The Werewolf emits ghastly dark energy that sizzle around its body like smoke, its blue glowing eyes look innocent but the glare is that of a predator.

Looking at the Werewolf in front of them,

The group of Werewolves frown because the Werewolf is not Bertolf, "Who are you? and Why are you in Bertolf's home?", they asked.

But before they can get an answer,

"What does the king want from me?", a voice coming from the second floor intervenes them.

The group of Werewolves looks up and saw Bertolf there, 

Bertolf is looking down on them from the second floor, he rests his arms on the steel fence.

The sharp bones that are sticking out of his back, and his humongous claws of his make him difficult to not get recognized easily.

Looking at Bertolf,

The Alpha raise the scroll, "Come with us to the castle, you are a suspect of treachery for breaking the sacred Supernatural Alliance"

Hearing this, Bertolf frowns.

"You're mistaken, tell the king that I swear upon the origin that I'm no traitor", Bertolf said calmly.

He waves his hand signaling to the group of Werewolves to leave his home,

But the Alpha didn't respond to his oath, "Bertolf, come with us to the castle to honor the king's decree or we will be forced to drag you there"

Their threat makes Bertolf stop,

He looks back to the group of Werewolves from the second floor as he chuckles, "You three? Drag Me to the castle? That's the funniest joke I heard in a while"

This makes the Alpha grit his teeth,

Then suddenly, a low growl can be heard from the front of the group of Werewolves.

They look at their front and see the unknown Werewolf growl at them menacingly, it makes one of the Werewolf irritated.

"Who is this Bertolf? Tell him to mind his manner in front of an Alpha", the Werewolf said.

Bertolf looks down at the Werewolf before he said, "Zegrath, stand down. These Werewolves are not your match, it'll be over in a minute if you fight them"

Hearing this, the irritated Werewolf smiles mockingly.

"You hear him, get your face out of my sight", the irritated Werewolf said pridefully.

But then, Bertolf said, "What I mean is that you will be dead if you fight him, so mind your mouth and get out!"

This makes the Alpha frown,

The irritated Werewolf widened his eyes in shock, he then walks closer to Zegrath who is still glaring at him.

"He's stronger than me? I think not", the Werewolf taunted.

Just after he said that the dark energy sizzling around Zegrath suddenly enveloped him.

The Werewolf suddenly can't move his body as he got engulfed by the dark energy, 

In front of his eyes, he saw Zegrath's body becoming bigger and bigger completely making him look like an ant.

The overwhelming dark energy penetrated his heart as it gripped it tightly.

After the dark energy gripped the Werewolf's heart, the Werewolf's legs suddenly went weak as he fall to his knees.

From the Alpha's point of view,

The Werewolf approach Zegrath pridefully before suddenly Zegrath's eyes sparkle, then the Werewolf falls to his knee under Zegrath's mercy.

It happened so fast that it caught the Alpha off guard,

He can't believe that his pack member lose just like that, it wasn't even a fight.

"Bertolf stop him!", the Alpha shouted fiercely.

The Alpha's claw already glows yellow as he is already on the verge of pouncing to Zegrath if Zegrath tries to do something to his pack member.

His pride is hurt seeing one of his pack members got beaten easily,

This makes Bertolf chuckles mockingly, "Fine, I'll follow you to the castle and honor the king's decree", he finally said as he walk down the stairs.

Bertolf then whisper to Zegrath something before Zegrath went back to the darkness.

The Alpha looks at Zegrath warily, it's not normal for a Werewolf like his own pack member to lose just from a glare.

It's almost comical how his pack member loses,

The other Werewolf beside the Alpha whispers, "Aren't we going to do anything? Bertolf just humiliate you"

Hearing this, the Alpha gritted his teeth, "Shut up!", he commanded.

He then looks at Zegrath who is fading away in the darkness before he mumbles, "More importantly, there should be no powerful Werewolf named Zegrath in this kingdom"

"Lead the way", Bertolf said with a smirk on his face annoying the Alpha.

After signaling to the other Werewolf to help the Werewolf that faces Zegrath, they then leave the building leaving Zegrath alone.

Although they have their mission here, the other Werewolf is still pissed.

Looking at his friend that lost easily to an unknown Werewolf, his pride can't allow it but the Alpha said no.

So he can't do a thing,

The Werewolf that faces Zegrath then snapped out of his daze after leaving the building.

He looks around in fright and sighs a sigh of relief after seeing that Zegrath is not around, he then gets back on his feet while shaking his head.

The Alpha then approaches him, "What happened to you?"

"I-I don't know", the Werewolf replied feeling dizzy.

They're starting to walk again under Bertolf's mocking look, "Did he send a mental attack to you?", the Alpha added.

"I don't know...I-I feel as if death itself is getting closer to me upon seeing that Werewolf's eyes...", the Werewolf explained.

This makes the Alpha looks towards Bertolf coldly, "Zegrath", he mumbles.

"Take a deep breath, and close your eyes"

A lecturer and a guy are currently occupying a training room, 

The training room is a part of the quiet room facility Faraday University provided to their students just like what Rex used when he learned his first spell.

But this training room is different than before,

Aside from it acting as an all-function room, this training room also provides treasure that will amplify the regeneration of mana and meditation absorbtion.

It's somekind of VIP training room that can only be used by a top-ranker.

Rex is currently training with his tutor, Chandler regarding the next step to reach rank six.

His right arm is almost healed and he already can start training without a problem.

He's currently topless sitting in the middle of the training room,

But Rex didn't forget to cover his black crow tattoo on his chest using an item from the shop, it's called an invisible sticker that he bought for 500 gold.

With the amount of money he has now, gold is not a problem anymore.

Aside from the $10 million he save for a spirit that he already planned, Rex has about $4 million gold left after getting the $2 million from his monthly allowance.

"Now, I want you to slowly activate your rune", Chandler instructed.

Rex did exactly like what Chandler instructed, he activates the rune on his shoulder as it started to lit up with black lightning.

Crack...

Blitz...

Black lightning started to spark around Rex's body,

These sparks of black lightning then slowly gather on Rex's back creating a black circle, it acts like a vacuum that absorbs lightning mana endlessly.

It's like a black hole for lightning mana, and this greatly surprised Chandler.

He looks at the black circle of lightning on Rex's back in awe, it seems he never saw this kind of phenomenon in his life.

But Rex didn't see this, he's closing his eyes shut.

Chandler then calm himself down before he continues, "Instead of absorbing the mana into your body, I want you to feel the mana without absorbing it"

Hearing the instruction, Rex channels his mana as the black circle behind him disappear.

After the black circle disappears, Rex focuses his mind on the sparkling lightning mana in the surrounding that felt familiar to him more than ever.

The lightning mana is like an extended hand of his, and the feeling is addictive.

Because of this, Rex realizes that the lightning mana is not only a tool to be absorbed and used but it also acts as his distanced limbs.

"Now, I want you to conjure a lightning strike out of thin air. Make it as far as possible"

Rex nodded his head as he started to communicate with the furthest mana on the edge of the room, he can feel that the lightning mana is reacting to him.

It doesn't take long for the lightning mana to become obedient,

After feeling that he's getting used to this, Rex then tries to gather lightning mana at the edge of the room to create a lightning strike.

Spark!

Blitz!

Chandler heard a sparking sound but he can't locate it in front of him, he then looks at his back before he widened his eyes in surprise.

He's shock beyond belief seeing this,

But before he can do anything, the lightning mana gathers crazily before suddenly,

BLITZ!!

BOOM!!

A lightning strike suddenly went past Chandler as it strikes the wall behind him, it exploded sending sparks of lightning to the surrounding.

Rex opens his eyes and saw Chandler is in an awkward position,

He bends his body to the side to dodge the lightning strike, and this results in a girly pose that makes Rex chuckle.

Realizing his weird pose, Chandler then coughs slightly in embarrassment.

"This is as expected, usually a rank five like you can only reach mana about 2-5 meters away but to think that you quadruple that easily speaks of your talent", Chandler praised.

He then continues, "But! Don't get full of yourself because this Conjuration technique is a technique that can be used by Awakened with rank five power that allows an Awakened to conjure a surprise spell to an enemy, and you won't reach rank six like me if you can't master this technique perfectly"

Chandler explained it as professionally as possible,

But rather than being inspired by his professional air, Rex still can't get off the girly pose of his as he tries to hold in his laughs.

"Stop laughing! I was caught off guard okay!!", Chandler said desperately.

He slumps his back in embarrassment, his dream of becoming a cool tutor that makes the Rex Silverstar look up crumbles completely.

Even until now, Rex is still holding his laugh.

After a couple of hours, Rex and Chandler left the training room.

"Today's training is over, although it's over I suggest you keep training for a couple more hours to familiarize yourself with the technique", Chandler said.

Rex nodded his head, he also planned to train some more.

Chandler then left after bidding goodbye, he disappear around the corner.

But before Rex wanted to go back to train, he suddenly senses someone approaching him from the side and he knows who it is.

"Rex, you got a minute?", Edward approached him and asks.

Rex turns to his back before he answered, "Yeah, What's up? You finish the delivery?"

Hearing this, Edward looks around before he pulls Rex to the side, "It's about the delivery, I got a bad feeling about this"

"Hans is the one who waited for the spellbook", he added.

Knowing the importance of the matter,

Rex then signals to Edward to go inside the training room, it's not a matter to be discussed in an open place like this.

After getting inside, Rex then asks, "Hans? Tell me what happened"
