Chapter 32 32. DEATHS
A few seconds after Simon stormed out of the training hall.
If one was in the hall right before the training court, they would see a person whose face was twisted with anger practically running, of course this person was none other than Simon.
He was the second son of the house of Liox, they were a middle sized noble family, like most noble familes in Vonol.
He had been brought up with the mindset that, anyone who’s status was lower than a middle sized noble family was trash, and should treat him with utmost respect, after all he was better than them.
Well that mindset was shaken to it’s foundation, if not destroyed, after he had witnessed Noah’s speed and strength.
Simon knew that if they were to get into a fight Noah would win hands down, and it hurt his pride as someone as dignified as him. So he was going to erase him.
Pushing the door to the reception with enough strength to break an ordinary door, though he couldn’t since the door could handle anything lower than peak tier 2.
Startling the receptionists, who immediately stood up to greet him due to his identity. “Good afternoon young master, I hope your day is going well.”, They both said in unison, though with a tinge of fear in their tone, since they could see that he wasn’t in a good mood.
Coming to an abrupt stop, and facing them, Simons face twisted even more before he opened his mouth to talk, “You…! you two, you let trash into this building”, he said pointing an accusing finger at them, “Your patriarch will hear of this”, he added storming out of the building, surprising the receptionists, who looked at each other with confusion, before sitting and returning to what they were busy with.
Walking out of the building, Simon turned to the right hand side of the building where a carriage, that had a horse, could be seen at the side of the road.
The horse wasn’t a normal looking horse, since it radiated tier 1 power, and was blue with yellow spot’s in colour.
In front of the carriage, two men were standing guard, one had blonde hair while the other had black hair, they both looked somewhat in their forties, and seemed to have a lot of experience in life.
If Noah were here, he would notice that they both radiated power in tier 2 with both in the middle stage!, and they let their aura flow freely, though it was free of any ill intent.
When they saw Simon, they both bowed at his arrival. Then the man with blonde hair said, ” Young master is anything of the problem?” he said still in a bowing position.
Hearing the question, Simons face almost fell off, “Oh yes there is a big problem, a lowly rat dared to attack me when I was training.” he said his voice oozing contempt.
Raising an eyebrow at the response, The man was about to say something when Simon continued, ” I want the both of you to take care of him”
The man frowned at that, but didn’t let it show, then he opened his mouth to talk, “Please describe him?” he said straightening his position.
Simons face regained some calm as he replied, ” He is a pretty boy with long black hair, but with a burnt blue attire”, you’ll recognize him when you see him”. Simon said as though he wanted to puke when recalling Noah’s features.
Raising an eyebrow at the description, the man with blonde whose names was Phelas, turned to glance at his quiet partner, who nodded in return.
Seeing that they agreed, Simon walked into the carriage commanding the carriage man to take him home.
Bowing at Simons departure, Phelas talked, “Do you know who he was talking about, Demios”, he said facing his partner.
A thoughtful expression flashed on Demios’s face, before he remembered something.
“Hmm, I saw someone like that, though there was something different about him” Demios said.
Rasing an eyebrow, Phelas opened his mouth to talk, “Special how?”, he said with a curious expression.
“You, know what I mean when I say special, my eye noticed something” Demios said pointing at his left eye, that was grey in colour Instead of the brown colour that his right eye had. 𝐨𝘃𝗹.
“Please elaborate?” Phelas said with a light smile. Nodding his head at the question, Demios opened his mouth to talk, “My eye noticed an immense amount of energy in the individual we are talking about, the small whiffs of Mana his body released were an Indicator that he had a large Mana pool, but that isn’t too strange, instead, the sheer amount of energy his body contained was.” Demios explained.
Phelas’s expression turned serious as he asked, “On what scale are we talking about?”, he said getting nervous.
“Hmm, the energy in his body is probably enough to blow up a considerable portion of Vonol.” Demios explained in an extremely calm voice,
“Even though he is still in the lower stage of tier 2” Demios added.
Phelas eye couldn’t help but widen in surprise, ‘How is that possible?!’ he shouted in his mind, but he trusted Demios, his left eye and evaluations had always proved to be right when they encountered anomalies.
After digesting the information, Phelas opened his mouth to talk, “So do you think we can take care of him?” He asked his voice gaining an incredibly serious tone.
Immediately he heard the question, Demios for the for time since they began the conversation heaved a sigh, before replying calmly and slowly, “We may be walking into our DEATHS”.
##
Back inside the spells training room.
If one were inside the wide court, that was the spells training room, they would witness the strange sight of a swirling tornado around 9ft in height, which wasn’t moving from it’s position, but after a few tens of seconds the tornado would disperse completely, as though it was never there, then a young man would be seen just before another swirling tornado, but this time made purely of orange Lightning appeared, it was a truly strange and beautiful sight.
Of course that young man was Noah. He had formulated this style of training his with his elements. He would conjure the elements in a tornado fashion, then would make them disappear as fast as they appeared.
This style of training helped him to be flexible with his elements, and with each round he found a new way to minimize the usage of Mana and maximize the effects of his elements.
And so far it had been a success, he had been doing this for more than an hour and he had only needed to rest once. His stamina was really incredible, and the fact that he kept the second function of his Mana regeneration skill active through out.
Though he would not gain any enlightenment, he would be getting stronger every second though incredibly slow, it was better than nothing.
Dispersing the tornado of lightning, Noah conjured air. He did this until a buzz sounded from his left pocket.
Dispersing the wind tornado, Noah removed the card, seeing that it continued to buzz, Noah sighed, as his time there was already up.
Most people had left the training room and, only three men remained. Seeing Noah begin to walk towards the exit, all of them wanted to talk to him, but they couldn’t, because Noah’s expression radiated coldness.
Walking out of the training room and into the short hall, Noah sighed, he had tried his best to not let his cold face crumble and he succeeded.
Pushing the door open, Noah walked out to find James sitting and chatting with the receptionists, who giggled or made small rmarks in response.
Sighting Noah’s figure, James stood up opening his mouth to talk, “Dude what were you doing…., You’ve gotten stronger!”, James exclamained.
Arcing an eyebrow, Noah said with a surprised tone, “You can tell?”.
Shaking his head in jealousy at Noah’s new strength, James talked, ” Yes I can, though that is due to the fact that your aura is still leaking”. he said nodding is head at the last sentence.
Widening his eyes though just a little due to his surprise, Noah closed his eyes and focused. Finding out that his aura was truly leaking, probably because he had been training with magic. Noah pulled those small whiffs of his aura and tucked them into his figure.
Opening his eyes Noah talked, “How about now?”, he asked James, who replied, “It’s totally gone, you are surprisingly very good at controlling your aura, most people can only achieve that when they reached the peak of tier 2” , He said with an eyebrow raised.
Nodding at the compliment, but saying Inwardly, ‘ most people I have met are very good at that ‘.
Noah opened his mouth to talk, “What’s next?” he said.
Shaking his head James replied, “Nothing. You can do whatever you want, I will go Into seclusion starting tommorow, and when i advance we will begin our journey”. James said walking towards the door while Noah nodded while following him.
On getting outside, Noah saw that it was already getting late, the time would be something around 5pm, and he hadn’t eaten anything.
Turning towards James, Noah said, “How about we grab something to eat before it’s too late?”.
