Chapter 100 - Control the Power of Elements?

Name:The Black Market Author:Condemned
The next day, inside the Earth Alliance Academy.

The entire academy was in a suspenseful mood as today was when the results of the exam will be announced. All the students prepared themselves for the inevitable because they might not be able to last for long inside the academy, so some of the students were nervously waiting for the results.

Inside the Tyrannical Tower, a man with raven black hair can be seen sparring with two hulking men. 

The three men produced monstrous attacks that would make an average man tremble in fright. 

All three of them were sweating profusely as they engaged in battle. But if one will look closely, they can see that both of the hulking men were at a disadvantage. The man with raven black hair was a lot faster and stronger than them which made it harder for them to hit or evade his attacks.

Cale took a step back to evade Brogen's punch, then raised his left hand to deflect Atlas' punch. Cale then jumped and kicked both men's chests. Both the tall and towering men who were already exhausted from the spar were not able to evade his kick.

"Pa! Pa!"

Their huge bodies were helplessly thrown on the ground.

Cale glanced at Brogen while wiping the sweat on his forehead.

"Brogen, you just broke through towards the initial stage of the Divine-Class level, so make sure to stabilize your foundations first."

Brogen stood up and bowed his head gratefully.

"I understand, my lord."

Cale then glanced at the charismatic-looking middle-aged man with a questioning look.

"Atlas, you are the same as me, stuck at the very peak of the Divine-Class level. Do you feel any hints of breaking through towards the Saint-Class level?"

Cale had a mixed emotion after asking that. He himself did not feel any hints of breaking through towards the next realm yet. 

Atlas shook his head with a crestfallen look. He had been stuck at the very peak of the Divine-Clase level for quite some time, so he was very disheartened after not breaking through yet.

"Breaking through towards the Saint-Class level was never easy." A cheeky feminine voice traveled swiftly beside their ears. All three men glanced at the source of the voice and saw two lithe silhouettes.

One was a young woman with fiery red hair. Her figure was enchanting and her overall aura contained pure seduction. And a teasing smile can be seen on her beautiful face.

The other one also looked like a young woman. Her hair was white as snow and her eyes devoid of any ripple like a sacred being. Her lips arched into a sweet smile which made the three men to unconsciously swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Brogen, Atlas, the both of you may leave." Cale waved his right hand while walking towards Nocturna and Zarinvienne.

Both men bowed their heads and left without any hints of disobedience.

The two graceful figures hugged Cale tightly and Zarinvienne did not even forget to give Cale a kiss on his cheeks. 

"Hehe." She smiled cheekily while sticking her tongue out as if she was teasing Cale. The latter was already used to her acts so he just allowed her to do as she pleases. He then patted her head which made her close her eyes on delight. 

He then hugged Nocturna which made the usually cold woman blush in embarrassment. She was not as open as Zarinvienne, but her love for Cale was obvious to see. 

Cale felt over the moon after hugging both women. 

"What are you guys doing here? Are you done eating your ice cream and you want me to give you guys a refill again? Hmmm?" Cale saw Nocturna's cheeks turn crimson red, while the succubus shamelessly nodded her head with a smile.

Cale chuckled softly and held both women's hands. 

"How could I not know? You two have been ordering ice cream and cake every once in a while. And how come you ladies are not getting fat at all?" Cale glanced towards the women's bellies. They then glared at him which made him smile wryly.

"Humph! How could I, the beautiful and enchanting Zarinvienne grow fat?" The succubus arrogantly turned her head away after producing a mild harrumph. 

"My lord, us elves would never gain fats even if we eat for the whole day." Nocturna chuckled softly.

"Yes, yes, yes. I believe both of you." Cale just nodded his head while rolling his eyes inwardly.

"Oh, yes right. Zarinvienne, you were previously at the Saint-Class level. How can someone reach that realm?" Cale's voice contained clear anticipation as he waited for the succubus to answer him.

Zarinvienne thought for a moment before she spoke in a matter of fact tone of voice.

"My lord, it's not easy to break through to the Saint-Class level. It is the boundary towards immortality, so how could it be easy? And breaking through to the Saint-Class level does not mean that you can advance towards the Immortal-Class realm. I'm even stuck at the Saint-Class level for several hundred years.

Once one reaches the Saint-Class level, their life can be extended to ten thousand years. It's a vast difference compared to a Divine-Class level fighter who can at most live by another five hundred years. 

When you reach Sainthood, your soul is no longer that of a human. You will be considered a mythical being who wields great power because you can already control the elements. But of course, you cannot control all of the elements, but only the ones with great affinity to you." 

Cale's mouth gaped wide, but he closed it hastily. He never knew that a Saint-Class level fighter was actually that strong. They can even wield the power to control the elements which were already beyond human science. 

"Then it looks like it'll take long for me before I reached that level." Cale sighed and shook his head dispiritedly.

Zarinvienne hugged him tighter and said.

"My lord, you will eventually reach that realm. Someone as talented as you was not fated to stay forever in this mortal world. You are fated to ascend towards the immortal realm and become a full-fledged immortal or even a god."

Nocturna nodded her head in agreement while tightening her hold on Cale's hand.

The latter smiled at the women's consoling expressions.

"Let's go get your ice cream. I know you were looking for me because of that."

The half-elf smiled bashfully while the succubus grinned mischievously.
