Book 5: Chapter 88: Return
Scarlet
Before I can ask anything about what he just said, I hear the Fae Kings sisters voice echoing out from the screen that is in the sky.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
Well, well, well, it looks like our resident Dragon Slayer is finally awake!
My eyebrow twitches for some reason.
Huh. I dont like Nyx.
No idea why, but I just dont like her.
After missing out on four Competitions, shes still the top ranking competitor of the tournament, Nyx continues, sounding a lot less motivated than her brother when hes commentating. But will she be able to keep that lead after coming back?
Well, at least Im still at the top.
Just a little warning for our resident royals, if you dont return to the tournament grounds within half an hour, the next competition will begin without you, Nyx says, making me almost glare up at the ceiling.
Yeah. I really dont like her.
Wait a second
I frown as I look at the people around me.
Allen, Cynthia, Leonidas, Amelia, Gramps, Belle, and Arthur.
Did they
They all stayed with you for the entire time you were out, I hear Tar say out of nowhere, right as I feel something plop down on my head.
The others all share glances amongst each other, but right as Amelia is about to respond, Nyxs voice echoes from the screen again.
Can you hurry up? I want to start this competition if you dont mind.
My eye twitches again.
Then I ignore her and float up into the air simply by controlling the blood in my body directly before patting Gramps on the head with a grin on my face.
Dont worry, Gramps, I tell him, while what youve done cant be forgotten and wont be, youre still Gramps.
His eyes widen and begin to fill with tears. But I dont give him or the others a chance to say anything as I tell them, Lets go finish things up.
Tar, take me to the tournament stadium.
Roger that! he exclaims, sounding amused.
Then I find Tar and I traveling through the void until we arrive at the entry square of the universe. And immediately after that, Tar vanishes to go to the void as I float myself up into the air and shoot straight up and over the stadium, stopping high in the air once I make it to the center of the stadium.
All of the people in the stadium begin to cheer my name or one of my Titles. Meanwhile the other competitors all look up from their many towers scattered across the stadiums arena.
I feel a rush of adrenaline and excitement at the sight of the millions, even billions of people scattered across this stadium and the other four stadiums surrounding it. With those other stadiums having a screen showing whats happening in this one at the center of their arenas.
Hmm, I wonder just how powerful is my Ruler of Blood skill?
Just how powerful is a transcendent skill
And Im apparently not the only one to wonder, since people begin chanting it all across the stadium. In fact, even Nyx looks slightly curious as she watches me without a word.
So I spread my arms out on both sides of myself, and immediately latch onto that new sensation that I can feel.
Then I flood the sky with blood, blocking out the light entirely.
