He stares off against Barbaros who grins in excitement. With Reginald and Vorus standing behind him."Kiddos," Shuntal faced the duo and smiled. "Why don't you lend a hand to your leader. Ada and I will handle this one." He pointed at Barbaros with his thumb."Hahaha!" Barbaros laughs maniacally. "Finally! A fight worth fighting." "Old man," Reginald glares at Barbaros. "Don't die.""Give my regards to your captain. I won't be here without your efforts." "Thank him yourself," Reginald said nonchalantly. "Come on big guy."Vorus had been staring down at Barbaros the entire time. He clenched his fists. "I'm weak. Too weak. After coming so far, I couldn't match up to him." Reginald seemd to have figured out what was going on in his mind.He places his hand on his shoulder. "I'm not one to give motivation but... Shuntal lost to him once, remember. You did good lasting so long. If you're worried about Ace. You know he'll only tell you to push forward and get stronger. Heck, I mean, tha

"Keith, you will travel to Fitri and cross the names off that list.""Same goes for you, Reed." "Yes father." The three children said in unison. "Remember, Chaos is the truth." PRESENT TIME. "What's the matter, cat got your tongue?" Rex teased Keith who was holding his stomach after being attacked ferociously. "Tck this is just getting started." He snarled. "That I agree with you." Rex slammed his fists together creating a small spark of flames. He then charges at Keith with hua fist forward but the assasin grabbed his face with both hands and struck him with his knee. Rex was dazed by this and Keith sought to take advantage of that. He creates another pair of miasma daggers as the previous ones disintegrated when Rex attacked him."Black X!" Keith slashed through Rex's chest. The red-haired man cried in agony as his blood splattered all over the arena. "Rex!""Boss!" Coby and Scott yelled. They were seated beside Mr. Peak within the crowd. "So much blood!" Coby exclaime

"Aria!" Harold who had a pair of purple aura wings was first to ascend to the altar leaving Jacob and Vex dashing forward. They set their gazes towards the woman who betrayed them. "Harold..." Said Edrees. He was panting heavily and looked as if he could pass out at any moment. He has taken substantial damage from the Elder Saint. "That clown went ahead and lost..." Harold's aura combusted around him. "Don't overexert yourself, Harold. Just hand over Kisha and I'll be on my way. Nobody has to get hurt anymore." "Are you listening to yourself talk right now? You're telling me to abandon my ally?" Jacob and Vex arrived on the scene and stood beside the Dark and Sword Saints. Aria chuckles. Even though Edrees was covered in cuts and bruises, she was completely unscathed. That goes to show the difference in their strengths. "You four could barely breathe normal, especially you, Vex. You were ambushed earlier and still had to fight the Valhalla clan." In truth, they all had par

"So, Sal is with the Oracle Crew." Ryker, Jackal and Peck had returned to the Black Stallion to convey their findings to the others. "That's right, we're a step closer to finding him." Jackal states. "Something feels off here." Said Ming. Heads turned to her. "Sal's psychic powers allows him to feel our presence as long as we're in the samr galaxy, why hasn't he reached out to us." "Probably has something to do with the Oracle crew." The one who spoke was Kinkaid. "The Oracle crew were dubbed as the Five Vices. Five space pirate crew that rocketed to the top of the criminal empire in the span of 5 years." He smacked his lips. "I'd like to face them." "Five Vices?" Jackal, Ryker and Peck tilted their heads. "Never heard of them." They said in unison. "Peck I understand. Jackal too since we have been away, but how is it possible for a hunter to not know about the Five Vices?" Ming darts Ryker a disgusted look. He scratches his head laughing sheepishly. "I didn't pay attention d

"Kill Switch!"Boom! "Unbelievable!" The announcer shouted. The crowd witnessed another one-sided battle featuring the ex-assassin. They cheered calling out his name and his clan's name. "Ace!" "Aegis!" "Ace!" "Aegis!" "And with that, ladies and gentlemen, the leader of the Aegis clan advanced to the quarter-finals alongside Kira and Zod!"Ace looked over at his flattened opponent. "Tck, I wanted to fight Tommaso this round... Well, let's see how he'll far." He pockets his hands and leaps through the sky before landing beside Vorus and taking a sit. "Haha. As expected of the captain. You crushed your opponent without holding back." "Thanks, Vo.""Without wasting any more time, let the next match of the day begin... It's,m Rhea vs Metal!" "Metal?" Rhea's opponent was a man donning the armor of a knight. He fought wielding a lance weapon.Rhea made quick work of the knight and easily secured the win."Rhea joins Ace, Kira, and Zod in the quarter-finals. We have 4 more batt
