Wu Wu~
Asher first cleaned his face with his right palm before his dull golden eyes could see the light of the sun after two weeks!
Although Asher had no idea, he had been unconscious for two weeks. After the system counted the last number, he blanked out and is just waking up today, yet it seemed as if not one second had passed.
Ttring…
[Ding! You have successfully awakened a talent.
[Host: Asher Ashbourne]
Age: 22
Rank: Silver
Talent: Blood Shura (SS)
Job: Lord]
[Talent description: This is an active talent that grants the individual connection to his ancestors, entrapping him/her in a state where they lose all emotions and become a true Shura. When activated, you are the master of every combat method known to those before you. [Can only be activated at the sight of your blood when cut.]
Alex read the description several times, yet he couldn’t understand what kind of talent this was. Howeer, when he remembered the talent that made Baron Snow a giant, his bewilderment was lowered to an extent.
For all he knew, this talent would be terrifying since he would instantly become a master of both martial arts and weapons, but the part about losing emotions got him worried, and the activation made it seem like a defensive mechanism, which meant the system also saw this talent as a dangerous one.
‘What would Count William think when he sees that 12 years after he saw my family as trash, I awakened the talent of the same grade as the Founding Emperor of the Eternal Immortal Empire?’
With a soft smile, Asher sat up and put his feet on the ground.
Some moments later, Asher walked out of his room and found two maids whispering in the corridor. The moment they saw him, they froze and bowed their heads.
“Inform Kelvin that I am awake.”
After saying that, he left them.
“So they’re talking about Alex’s new look, huh?” His eyes twinkled.
Outside the castle, he found Alex on the training platform training the castle guards. Those on the castle walls watched the castle guards lined up, trying to pick up the sword Alex lifted with one hand and plunged into the platform floor.
Alex stood on the platform with crossed arms. All the soldiers admired his amour and impressive stature, but his massive sword amazed them more than anything. They couldn’t believe Alex could lift it with one hand.
After weighing the sword, they discovered it weighed about 1000 kg!
And this was what a man could swing with one hand.
Asher looked at the helmet with furrowed brows. He saw it as uncomfortable, and the eye space limited vision, but Alex looked comfortable wearing it.
Not only had Alex’s rank upgraded but also his knowledge in the Blazing Battle Force Art; his body was also being upgraded to human limits, and he was also given memories that had made it seem like he had been wearing that armor for decades.
Because of Alex, Asher would be recognized as a baron in the entire Tenaria.
“Lord Asher!”
The soldiers on the castle walls half kneeled. Their voices made Alex and the castle guards realize Asher’s presence, and they also half kneeled.
“Go on.”
He said it with a smile.
Right at that moment, Kelvin came out of the castle.
“My Lord, I’m glad you’re finally awake. We have a situation that needs your presence.”
Asher turned to look at Kelvin. “I just woke up, and there’s already a problem.”
“Actually, it’s been here for three days now. My brother and I went on an expedition a week after our return, and we brought wild horses and wild chickens, but we were also attacked by some barbarians three days ago when we were on our way back.”
“Babarians.” Asher muttered as he looked at Alex and then at Kelvin.
“Have you questioned them?”
“Yes. They are from a large tribe with about 3000 people, and we have their chief.” Alex said.
Asher’s eyebrows raised.
“You have their chief?”
“Yes. Their chief is a skilled sharpshooter and injured Alec, so I brought all of them so you would decide their fate.” Alex said.
“You didn’t kill them immediately. Why?” Asher asked, and Alex began to scratch his helmet.
Kelvin cleared his throat. “Alex was ready to massacre all of them, but Alec was against it. He wanted you to decide after interviewing the barbarians.”
“I think you will know the reason Alec spared their lives after meeting them, My Lord.”
Kelvin said.
“Bring them to the sacred hall.”
…..
Inside the sacred hall.
Asher blinked when he saw the chief. It was a woman!
At first she had a stubborn expression, the same for the four that came with her, but the moment they saw Sirius before him, their stubbornness vanished like the morning mist before the rising sun.
Their gazes toward him became one of reverence, and without being forced, all of them fell on their knees and kowtowed.
“What are you doing?”
“Paying respect to the great wolf rider.” Eritrea Wolf, chief of the great white wolf tribe, said in fluent Tenaria language.
“Wolf Rider?”
“The great wolf rider died centuries ago, but you must have been reborn and forgot your memories.”
Asher scoffed inwardly. While this barbarian cheif might be beautiful, she was certainly humorous to think he is some myth.
Had she seen the Ashbournes in their prime, it would have been an amusing situation. In the end, this was to his advantage.
“What is your name?”
“Eritrea Wolf,” she replied.
“Why did you attack my men?”
“We thought they were spies from the Raging Bear tribe.”
“I see.”
Asher leaned back. He locked eyes with her, and her panel appeared.
