Chapter 168 Addison And Jackson... The Crazy Twins

"I'm sorry… Your Majesty… I—"

"I understand." Justin dismisses it with a wave of his hand. "Your ability is Bio-Sonar"

Bio-Sonar!

The twins looked at each other with a beaming faces. Watching others use their ability was like watching magic but now. They had awakened theirs.

"Quickly, use your power and let the king see it," Addison said with a bright smile.

Jackson nodded quickly and looked at Justin. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes as he tried to sense his power. For a couple of seconds, nothing and everyone looked at him, wondering what the hell was going on.

"S-Sorry…" Jackson opened his eyes slowly in nervousness as his heart was racing. The thought of waking his power made not to calm his boiling blood.

"Calm down and take a deep breath," Justin said slowly.

"Alright" Jackson nodded and tried once again, closing his eyes.

After a couple of seconds, the air inside the room began to change. Gray substances appeared in thin air. The temperature inside the room rose a couple of degrees while Nasir and Addison took a couple of steps back from him.

However, when the gray substance appeared a couple of meters from Justin. It disappeared into thin air like it never existed in the first place.

Shortly, the gray substance covered the room and turned into deadly ash. Everyone looked at the ashes inside the room in awe. While a glee appeared on Addison as she looked at her brother's ability.

'Finally!' She shouted.

"That's enough," Justin said when he noticed Jackson was losing his control over the ashes.

Huh!

Jackson took a deep breath and opened his eyes slowly. His head was covered in sweat but the joy on his face told another story.

"Look like you learn from your sister…" Justin said.

A wry smile appeared on Jackson's face as he nodded. He would be a fool if he couldn't learn something from his sister.

"Although you try to learn from your sister, there are still errors in how you circulate your power. Try to sense your power like it is part of you and don't strain it."

"Concentrate your ashes on small areas and make them thick. The thicker it is, the more deadly and useful it will become. Moreover, you must make sure the ashes cover you." Justin said slowly.

Hearing this, Jackson nodded and tried once again. After a couple of seconds, the ashes appeared inside the room but this time around, the ashes gathered around him, making it virtually impossible to see him with naked eyes.

"Can you spread it further…" He heard Justin's voice inside his head.

"Yes."

At once, the ashes spread further and stop when it reaches a 5-meter radius.

"That's the limit without straining my body," Jackson said within the ashes.

"Good. Hold it like that." Justin said slowly but the urgency couldn't be hidden.

Whoosh!

A cheat of paper was sent into the ashes but it shreds to pieces and turns to ashes.

"Nasir, don't use your power. Touch the ashes."

Nasir didn't ask any questions and touched the ashes boundary. Immediately he touches the ashes, deadly burns invade his hand, trying to burn its hand to a crisp. He gnashed his teeth and maintained his position.

His hand only lasted half a minute before he removed it quickly. He panted with beads of sweat all over his face. His right hand reddened with stems rising from his hand, skin peeled off.

Seeing this, Addison took a step back and swallowed the lump in her throat. She looked at the mutilated hand and looked at the ashes in trepidation.

'Brother ability is quite scary!' She screamed inside her heart.

"Circulate your ability."

Nasir nodded. Although he was in pain, it hadn't reached the level he couldn't bear. Thus, he circulated his core power toward his mutilated hand. While also, the heaven marking on his forehead glows a bit.

His mutilated hand began to heal at a rapid speed. After a couple of seconds, the hand was back to normal.

"Addison, try to use your power to see through the ashes," Justin commanded.

En!

Addison woke up from her stupor and looked at Justin with wide eyes. However, when she saw the seriousness on his face. She knew there was no room for argument. Thus, she nodded and closed her eyes, and began to use her ability.

"Tell me what you see or feel when you detect each other's ability." Justin's voice echoed inside the twins' heads.

At the center of the ashes, Jackson noticed something was trying to enter his domain but he couldn't pinpoint the exact location. While on the outside, Addison's face turned unsightly as her forehead was drenched in cold sweats.

The more she tried to bypass the ashes the more her expression turned unsightly. Although Justin wanted to test the limit of their ability, it turned into a competition between the twins.

Jackson fortified his domain with all his power while Addison gave up as she tried to see through the cloud of ashes.

Nasir looked at Justin with a wry smile on his face. "Is this good for them?" He whispered.

"What do you expect?"

"I don't know. They just awaken their power and they mustn't strain their body. They should learn to use their ability before this…" He shook his head and turned to look at the battle between the twins.

"Really. What if they were both enemies and awakened their power during battle? What would happen then?" Justin asked.

Sighed."I know I can't win against you." Nasir raised both his hands to give up.

Justin chuckled. "I understand your worry. But you don't need to worry. Their ability is quite different from ours."

En!

"What do you mean?" Nasir widened his eyes and turned to look at Justin, waiting for him to continue.

"I won't say anything for now since I'm not sure. But when we have more people, then I will tell you."

Ah!

A stream of blood came from Addison's nose but she didn't have the intention of giving up. Also, the ashes were trembling, with Jackson's grunt coming from within.

"Almost there…. Almost there…."Addison muttered as she grind her teeth with blood dripping to the ground.

Furthermore, Jackson was covered in blood as blood flowed out from his major orifices. His face is ashen and his breathing becomes erratic. However, the thought of losing to her twin sister made him not give up.

Since the death of their parents, the twins depend on each other to survive. However, when it comes to agreeing on something. Almost every time they end up fighting since they both have different viewpoints.

They were from Howard camp which was oppressed by the group that sacrificed humans to beasts. Jackson wanted the duo to join the other group to escape their misery in Howard's camp but Addison insisted on staying. They fought over it without reaching a consensus, forcing the twins to live separately.

Jackson would have long joined the savage group but he couldn't leave her twin sister behind. Thus, forcing him to stay behind as he tries to convince him until Justin and his group arrive and free them from the savage oppression.

After they joined Justin's group, Jackson waited for a couple of days before he joined the defense team. He refuses to live a life of mediocrity because of fear. When her sister saw this, she joined the defense team, wanting to keep an eye on her brother.

Thus, the twins joined the defense team and fought side by side. Nevertheless, their misunderstanding never reduces but increases. And their latest argument was about who should decide between them. Jackson wanted to decide on a man but Addison rejected the notion, saying he was too reckless.

They were still on the issue when the Goblin attacked the ark. Thus forcing them to battle and leading them to their current situation.

"This is getting out of hand…" Nasir exclaimed, seeing Addison almost unconscious.

Justin was stunned seeing the determination on the twins' faces. Although the ashes obstruct people from viewing what is happening inside. That didn't apply to him at all. He could see Jackson's wretched situation. His situation was not looking as he was on his kneel with veins protruding from his forehead.

"Do you want to stop?" Justin voices inside the twins' heads.

"Tell her to stop…. and I will stop…." Jackson said with difficulty as blood gushed out of his mouth.

"Tell him to stop… and I will… stop…." Addison responded with her eyes covered in blood.

Hearing their responses, Justin shook his head and relaxed, watching the battle unfold.

"Are you not going to stop them?" Nasir asked.

"They didn't want to stop?"

What!

"Are they crazy!?"

"Probably."

Nasir couldn't wrap his head around what was going on with the twins' heads. 'Did they hate themselves to the point of killing each other?' he thought. After giving it a deeper thought, he shook his head. 'Their previous actions show how much they love each other.' The more he thought about it the more confused he got.

"Don't think about it. We will find out soon." Nasir heard Justin's voice inside his head.

"How do you do it?"

"Do what?"
