Chapter 1010 Discussion
CLANKKK!! BAMMM!!
The powerful strike that the golden glaive unleashed was blocked by an axe, which resulted in a loud boom and blew away the one who was holding the glaives a few feet back. Recovering their balance, the figure clicked their tongue in annoyance.
“I see that you have mastered Immortal gate stage 6, but unfortunately, your attack was too predictable! You call yourself an immortal gladiator?” The opponent snorted.
“I am not finished yet!” shouted the young man. However, right before he was about to attack, a similarly youthful man with brown hair suddenly stopped him.
“Wait Thrax, we should attack together!”
The Thracian was taken aback for a second, yet he unhesitantly nodded to his Roman rival, and when it came time to charge again, the two of them did so together as they had come to a tacit understanding.
The Roman kicked the ground and leaped to the air before smashing his hammer from above with full power. At the same time, the Thracian arrived before his opponent and swung his glaive from below. It was a two versus one combat at the moment. Both of them moved with a rhythm that was mutually supportive of one another during the fight.
“That’s more like it!” Said the man as he blocked both of the attacks his two opponents orchrestrated in a perfect manner, with merely a single swing of the axe in his hand. This obviously made the Thracian and Roman get annoyed as their attacks had no effect on the combat champion.
In the next split second, an arrow and a small javelin were flying towards him from both sides in an attempt to pincer him. One was shrouded with darkness energy, while the other was enveloped by crackling lightning.
Even after all those attacks were thrown at him, the man at the center remained completely still and did not make a single step. Instead, he let go of the axe he was holding and grabbed both attacks with his bare hands, letting the destructive energy of both elements flow into his body.
The man let out a scream as a result of this.
Aarrghhh!!!
Despite that, his opponents couldn’t afford to be relieved as the scream was followed by a boisterous laugh at the end of it. It seemed as if the pain was nothing and instead a pleasure, and the attacks after all ended in vain.
“One more time!” shouted Lord Izta, as he was currently sparring with the four young acolytes on the yards of Terra Palace.
Julian, Thrax, Chumo and Klea; all four were giving their best fighting the man, even resorting to attack together. However, their attempts were still unable to satisfy the combat magus.
In the midst of the situation that was going on, Lord Izta turned his attention toward one corner of the yard and glared at one particular young man who stood still. He beckoned the figure and said,
“Emery, give your friends a hand, will you?” asked Lord Izta; an offer which was unhesitantly accepted by Emery.
[Twilight Transformation]
In an instant, Emery decided to use his full strength. Following his transformation, he immediately drew his dark sword and without a slightest hint of hesitation, he made a lightning-fast approach toward the man who was standing in the center of the room.
Not wasting any time, Emery channeled his energy toward the sword as his figure rapidly drew closer. The moment he arrived the sword was swung downwards, causing the powerful [Shadow Edge] that he had prepared to be unleashed straight upon the combat champion.
BAMMMM!!!!!
The peak combat magus quickly blocked the attack with his axe, but this time, Emery’s attack was successful in causing the magus to lower his body and almost bent his knee before the magus managed to push Emery’s back with sheer strength.
“Arggggghhh!! That feels good!!” He groaned with satisfaction.
Ever since their return from the meeting with the Nephilim’s family yesterday, Emery had been in such a gloomy mood, especially Lord Izta himself. As a result of that, this early morning the man forced everyone to engage in a fight. They continued to fight for hours, five against one, but the Champion combat magus was undefeated throughout the entire spar.
In the middle of the hustle and bustle of the battle, on the corner of the yard, an old man with white hair was standing while observing every move made by everyone. Seconds later, he finally called them all to stop and gathered everyone together for a discussion.
“I know you are all worried about the calamity, but let’s agree to deal with this issue one by one lest things go out of control,” said the old man sage.
After a night of rest and the recently intense spar, everyone seemed to have blown off some of their frustration and regained their composure as they nodded their heads in agreement.
“When you all return to Earth, you should inquire more about the calamity.” The sage specifically looked toward Emery and then continued by saying, “But for now, the best way to deal with the calamity is to become the caretaker of the planet. This means no outside disruption, and instead we can even request for outside help.”
Every single word that he uttered was attentively taken in by everyone. The sage paused for a brief moment, his face turned to be more serious, and continued, “Therefore, we shall focus on winning the duels.”
Lord Izta and the sage started to combine the information they have about the Kronos family.
Other than the family head, Kronos who have reached the grand magus realm, there were three members of the family that were considered to be particularly the strongest; Zeus, Hestia and Ares. All of them were currently at the peak stage Full Moon magus level, while next in line were those of Half Moon which were Poseidon, Hades and Apollo.
“They have half a dozen more magus-level members in their family who are in the Crescent Moon stage, but we need to assume for the worst and think that things would greatly change after 20 years.”
“Yes, but we will change as well!” Shout Thrax surprisingly excited with the challenge.
The sage shook his head and said, “If the weakest among you are this excited, we have much hope indeed.”
“What! Who is the weakest? It’s definitely not me!”
Thrax was suddenly annoyed seeing no one argued with the statement made by the sage. Meanwhile, the latter could only let out a muffled chuckle to himself seeing Thrax’s reaction upon his sarcastic joke.
On the other side, Emery glanced at the magus. It seemed as though he had something in mind that he needed to find out, so he started to inquire, “So senior, what is the best way for us to improve faster?”
To answer his question, the sage said, “You need to start comprehending the Law, that is the way to become a magus”
Not only Emery, but Everyone suddenly turned silent as they waited for the sage to explain how they were going to actually do that. The sage then added, “Fortunately, you have learned some of my techniques already, so that will be one way to go.”
Everyone was thrown for a loop by this sudden statement, and Julian responded by asking, “Sorry senior, what techniques were you talking about?”
“The divine technique,” said the sage briefly.
It was at this exact moment, hearing and seeing the look on the man’s face, that Emery and the others had just come to a realization that Fuxi was the creator of all the divine techniques given out by the Abbot.
“That technique will help boost your comprehension in Law”
