The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 12: Lord Rades wasn't Persistent
“Seriously! I can’t believe that you were able to do that?! How was it even possible? Normally, with a single arrow, I wouldn’t be so shocked, but what? All of them at once? Have you always been a genius and didn’t let me know? Then why the hell did you continue to perform when you had such amazing skills? No matter how much I think of it, it doesn’t make any sense! You couldn’t even throw a stone at a target that was right in front of you, you were so weak that I would normally kidnap you away and carry you over my shoulder to make sure that you spend the whole day with me. How is this possible?!”Ashton ranted without taking any break, he continued to talk and for once, not reveling and minding the glances and stares that followed them as they walked away. In fact, his rant garnered more attention too.Elaris face palmed multiple times, willing himself not to just snap at him to keep his mouth shut.He really didn’t need a headache.“How am I even supposed to know? Your brother sti
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 13: Petty Tricks At The Academy
Tarex Cald who had been standing to the side stared at Elaris with hatred, his face was tight and he heart pounded heavily with the immense level of hatred he felt for the guy.His spot had been secured, he was supposed to continue the tradition of making the Cald family get the top position at the entrance examination into the academy—it had been like that for years and it should always be like that.But suddenly, the clown came out of nowhere and decided that the next thing he wanted to do was snatch his top score from him. How dare he do that?The spotlight was important to him and he had always spent ten of the nine days studying, practicing and pushing himself to the very extent, but still, it wasn’t as important as the impression he wanted to secure in Lord Rades’ face.His father got the golden chance of finally inviting Lord Rades into Astrad and had spent a lot of time telling him how much he wanted Tarex to make him proud. Now, not only had Elaris forced him to lose face in
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 14: The Great Elaris Has Spoken
“You should have been there, Caden! I am sure that you would be as stunned as everyone there!” Ashton exclaimed and Caden raised a brow at him in surprise before he turned to look at Elaris who was sitting quietly on the bed with his eyes closed and back against the wall.They have finally settled down in Caden’s room after moving their stuff from their old place to each of their respective rooms, every one of them had to admit that it was better to live inside the mansion which wasn’t as hot as the former almost-ruined house because of the weather.Both Caden and Elaris were definitely going to have a good night's sleep.“Are you sure that you aren’t saying this because you are ‘supporting’ him or something?” Caden asked, still in doubt.“Unless the whole audience and dean suddenly wanted to ‘support’ him, there was no way they would have given him the highest score and said that his result was supreme level, would they?”“But—”“No buts, Caden. Believe me as I say it, your brother w
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 15: Food Poisoning & Fragile Souls
“We have found the culprit!” An exclamation from one of the maids just entering the room broke the suffocating silence in the room and every one turned to look at the maid in surprise.It was Phina’s head maid who was always by her side and in charge of assigning duties to every maid that worked in the mansion.There were two guards behind her, dragging another maid into the place they were.“What do you mean that you found the culprit?” Dax immediately asked, relieved to be able to pin the blame on someone else. It was obvious that the matter would only continue to get worse the more Elaris probe to investigate.He was sure that the verdict he expected to be given to be the culprit was not a simple threat—after his victory at the arena, he had known not to underestimate him.It would be no surprise if Elaris was already aware that it was him and his mother that orchestrated the plan to blind him.“We found her in the kitchen, putting some kind of medicine in the food that was suppose

“Mrs. Wilder, Lord Rades is here,” The head maid informed Phina and she quickly stood up with wide eyes.“Are you sure about what you are talking about?!”“Yes, Ma’am. The second city Lord of Embrayl is here, at the moment he is standing on the patio.” The head maid confirmed once again.“Invite him in, and quickly send a maid to inform my husband about this. I am sure that he would be very glad about it. Let me entertain them before he is able to make it here.”“Yes, ma’am.”The head maid went out to perform the respective duties that were assigned to her by Phina. It wasn’t long before Lord Wilder himself was down in the living room, he was about to start asking questions when a man entered and indeed, it was Lord Rades.Both husband and woman stared at each other in surprise before hurrying to meet him.“Lord Rades,” They greeted and the man nodded at them.“May I ask what brings you to my humble abode?” Lord Wilder asked, he was so excited to have the extremely rich second city Lo
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 17: He Wasn't Jealous
“My Lord, Lord Rades is here,” A guard informed Lord Cald who was sitting in his study and going through some files. Lord Cald raised his head and raised a brow at him.Tarex had told him that Lord Rades had gone to scout Elaris Blackwell instead after the young man managed to get the first place and the first supreme level ever in Astrad’s Academy Examination.When he didn’t see any trace of the man the day before, he had assumed that Lord Rades had overlooked him because he was merely a city Lord in Astrad and went for the son of General Blackwell instead.“Direct him to the study,” he ordered the guard who nodded and went out of the place to invite Lord Rades in.It wasn’t long before Lord Rades entered and Lord Cald greeted him with smiles and directed him to the chair.“I hope you are not annoyed that I am only coming here today,” Lord Rades asked and Lord Cald laughed as he shook his head.“Do I dare to be mad at you? That’s not right at all,” Lord Cald replied and they both lau
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 18: Your Step Brother Is A Nice Man
Every one of them stood closer to themselves as Max approached, a small smile that disgusted Ashton to no end hanging on his lips.“Elaris, Caden, Ashton, you are here,” Max said and Caden just nodded while Ashton couldn’t resist the urge to scoff.“Of course, we are here, where else were we supposed to be? In your room?” Ashton asked fiercely but Max only chuckled.“I didn’t know that you have some sort of vendetta against me,” Max said. “I am only here to see my step brother and ask how it is going with the treatment of his eyes.After all, you, young master Ashton, provided him with medicine that would speed up the healing.”Max’s voice was smooth and gentle, there was no trace of malice in it but even a tinge of concern laced his words, he looked like he was genuinely concerned about Elaris.“I was just coming from Arcane branch, and heard noise at the yard so I figured why don’t I stop by,” He continued. It was then that all of them noticed that he was still wearing the red and c
The Making of a Living Legend Chapter 19: A Weak Neutral City
Astrad City.The Sixth city down the pyramid which was governed by three city lords and had no close relationship with any other city in particular.The only relationships that existed were personal relationships that existed between a city lord and another city lord of another city. The city was so fearful of getting involved in any way that they maintained it that way for many years.It is otherwise known as the Official’s City.If a city lord of another city which was greater than Astrad wanted to have a good official that would be loyal to them, it would be better to come and pick them from Astrad city and catch them young because without doubt, Astrad city provides better officials than from every other place.Not that other cities didn’t have promising students that could be officials but it was simply because all the youngsters from the city ever learned since they were young, there was no organization causing distraction in Astrad, the academy was the main goal. Even the celeb

Thwack!As slap that resounded through the whole forest like explosive met the cheeks of the woman whose body and face were still hidden under her long black lace gown and covered face, her face was forced to turn to the other side because of the effect of the slap, but she still continued to struggle even as she was shoved into a room that had no doors or windows and four men stationed themselves at the entrance and stare directly at the woman whose hand remained tied tightly behind her back and legs firmly put together, with the scarf of her dress covering her eyes, her vision was cut off from the rest of the world.“Goodness, you are really something; do you think that we wouldn’t catch you even if you escaped back to your city lord, Princess? What happened to those wanderers you met at the forest, went back to their cities, didn’t they?” The man who remained squatting in front of the woman taunted, but the woman in front of him only looked the other way and refused to answer him,
Chapter 89: Lestria Nerith
They watched as the swirl closed on them and tried to put a barrier or summoning their energies to take a form that would at least weaken the impact of what was coming, but no matter what they did in the direction of the force, it didn’t dissipate and there was no sign that it was being weakened, it still continued to charge towards them in full force.Just as it was about to hit them, a blast of crackling thunder appeared about them and white light shot towards the swirl that was closing in on them and stopped it in place, the men at the other side also increased their capability but another cackling light shot to the one which was already stopping the one there in the first place and the swirl was forced to shatter and burst, which made the men who attacked to stagger back as they stared in shock because they didn’t expected that their force would be stopped just like that.They conjured another one with higher capability but this time, there was simply a slash in the direction of t

Every person could channel energies if they tried, and made it take a form if they tried harder, but what took a lot of concentration and determination was using a skill for the form. Every single form has its own skill and most of the time, these skills overlapped each other or are the same but some skills worked better for some form than another.The skill that these men used further confirmed that they weren’t just low level kidnappers because the skill called Wander was an extremely hard skill to master not to mention that all of them had mastered it and were using it as a group attack.It is a skill that require turning their form into a force that continue to move around until it strikes the opponent it was targeted at, it was one of those skill that it was hard to evade and once it strike the opponent, it caused them to be unconscious if they weak and render them unable to move if they were strong enough but there were some people who would still be able to move eve after they
Chapter 87: The Victim & Her Helpers
Traveling around Nethrowl wasn’t easy, but Ashton made sure to continue to drag Caden, Oliver and Estrina around the whole place. The best place for practice was the forests where there were a lot of beasts like the ashcrawler they dealt with on their way to Nethrowl and beasts who were fiercer and had different attributes than the ashcrawler.Ashton was doing this in order to ensure that they were all trained and get good control over the forms of their energy, it had been over a month since Elaris left without disclosing his destination and he would be damned if he came back and saw that there was no improvement.He got some strange news from his master the last week about strange things that happened in the desert and Faded Mountain, the whole Fragile Souls Establishment were scrambling around to find any information they could get on controllers whose aim for meeting up and controlling a whole horde of outlanders were still unknown.Two of them had been caught and placed in tortur
Chapter 86: Decvil’s Tower
The only land in Nethrowl which was under shade and had protection from harsh weather, a perfect tourist center or vacation place Neths don’t want to go too far from their city, the air was crisp and cool and for a while, he just continued walking without meeting even a single soul. Everything was dead silent even though Elaris was sure that he had entered Decvil.Maps were the easiest thing for him to follow because once upon a time, it was the only thing that he could firmly depend on when taking a journey, his sense of direction is top notch and he had absolute confidence in it.Elaris passed by a small stream and waited as he searched himself for something, he removed the small container that was given to him by Radai and opened it before he took the cure of the disease in his hand, he just stared at it wordlessly for a while reliving the matter that led to the event that made him still have it.Elaris had given it to Areth for consumption and he collected it at first, but then he
Chapter 85: Scattered Informants
The journey down the mountain and out of the desert was easier than when Elaris came in, yes, he had to deal with a few outlanders and he had to wind through a storm of sand but it didn’t take him long to arrive outside the desert and at the edge that led to Nethrowl city.Alone by himself with the necklace that contained the ashes of five brave people who had painstakingly gone on a journey that fulfilled nothing while also claiming their lives, he couldn’t bring himself to breathe in relief to appreciate the scenery or the environment that were much less harsh when compared to the desert. He still had things to do.He walked a bit further from the forest and it wasn’t long before he arrived at a small town which had a scarcity in the number of people walking on the street and looked like a mini version of Nethrowl’s capital as far the atmosphere was concerned, fortunately before he could walk further he saw a shop that he was looking for, he entered the shop that sold all sort of th
Chapter 84: The Last one Off
Elaris, his partner and Radai hurried to the gate with their might, kicking the crazies blocking their way away without lingereing too much, there was no need to fight them anymore because the number advantage was greatly against them, the most they could do was hide when needed and run when concerned. It would be their end if they were caught.Suddenly Radai’s movement slowed down considerably, which made Elaris turn to look at the man, without asking any question he dragged him behind a stone with the other man and the three of them hid there.“What is wrong with you?” Elaris whispered, in order not to get the attention of the crazy people with his voice.“I think the disease is acting up,” Radai replied and the temperamental guy glared at him.“Are you nuts?” He asked. “You gave us the stupid cure, don’t tell me that you haven’t swallowed at least a dozen of it.”“Uh… I think it must have been when he held me earlier, I just realized it now but his hand was sweaty and strange when
Chapter 83: Out of Control
Everybody froze with complicated expressions on their faces, there was no saying if they should advance forward and bash the two men standing with their back against each other or withdraw to their master who was already bleeding from the thin slice on his neck.There was a dead silence as everyone continued to stare at each other, Elaris and his partner continued to advance backward and near the houses, it was easier to find an escape route around their than at the front.“Boo,” Radai said, and Eadai glared hard ahead since he couldn’t turn his head or he would risk detaching his head from the body.“What the hell are you doing?” Eadai asked, his lips trembling as he clenched his hand tightly.“What does it look like, brother? I think it is self explanatory,” Radai replied.Elaris and his partner had walked a considerable distance from them all but then all the soldiers standing at the rare gate also came forward and stopped behind them.“Your time is up, you have pranced around for
Chapter 82: Subduction
It wasn’t the time to show mercy or try to play around with the men, so Elaris and his crew fought their out of the group that surrounded them, cutting them down furiously and not waiting to check if they were dead or not, the major concern was to leave Faded Mountain as soon as possible.“You can survive life without your brother, yes?” Elaris asked and Radai snorted.“How old do you think I am to ask that question? Two?” Radai fired back.“Who knows, you might have been accustomed to him taking care of your needs that you wouldn’t want to leave him, there are all types of twisted reasons and love flying around.” The temperamental guy fired, hitting one man’s neck with his knife before he stabbed another.“I am not that attached to being lazy, besides, it is if I leave that I would be able to use medicines as much as I would like to.”“You could have fooled me,” Elaris replied as he slashed two men who rushed over to him.There was no need for any accursed mercy right now, they would
