《Dream mastery》Intruders
Advertisement
As the prince ordered, everyone was present in the hall. The crowd was about a hundred people strong. Most of them were adults, but others could be seen standing together with their families.
They were the most adamant supports of the royal family. Some workers had called their families so that they could meet them in this place.
Despite the feeling of oppression that everyone had, the butler has assured them that the prince had a plan. He was going to meet them and explain how things will go.
The hall was decorated with a Baroque style. Under the 'distilled' light, the crowd saw the prince coming from afar, followed by a black-haired maid.
There was a little commotion that soon quietened. None of the people present were average, and seeing the prince's nonchalant expression, they were somewhat surprised.
The crowd was divided into different groups and soon the prince was facing them.
"I'm very happy to see you today. In a tumultuous time like this, I'm a little regretful to see so few...."
Tommy started his speech. At first, he had not planned to do something like that. He tough he just had to come, say "hello" and then give a task to everyone.
Who would have thought that the butler would go mad at his prince and start to cry about how careless he was.
In Luo nation, there were 'rules'. You can not start a war without a good speech, you could not even start a banquet without a speech.
For Tommy, a commoner, it was new to him. It could be said that inside the same society, the different classes had different ways of doing things.
Finally, it was not Tommy who wrote the speech but the book maid. All he did was use the memory-enhancing spell to learn it instantly.
It was a speech full of nationalism that lasted more than twenty minutes. He talked about the sacred fire of the Luo nation, about the spirit of unity that remained during a troubled time. Soon he started to talk about the traitor who brought madness to the country, about what awaited the Luo nation if the traitor were not stoped.
Tommy almost felt bad saying all of this. He felt like a crazy dictator, full of hateful words.
But the more he talked, the more the speech resonated with his feelings and the more confident he became.
The same thing happened to many of the people present.
If the king had not been killed, none of this would have happened. Hundreds of people will have survived.
For Tommy it was different. Without all this war thingy, he would have more easily achieved his dream of world domination.
" presently among us, there are traitors. I know who they are.

I don't plan to kill them. But I hope that they will... Without making a fuss"
The people present were confused when the prince started to Point at people among the crowd.
One of them was a guard in the palace, another was a maid. At soon as they were pointed People started to retreat far away from them.
Even though they were réfuting, Tommy who was using his danger detecting spell felt a danger stemming from them. He was not sure of the usefulness of this power so he did not plan to do any harm to the people arrested.
After pointing at another maid who was still denying his accusation. Ince gazed at the group of people that came to his house to seek refuge.
Many people did not believe what the prince said, they were still fearing that they will be made a scapegoat. For many of the people present it was a dishonor to their families even worse than death itself.
There were two people from which Tommy could feel a different kind of danger. Feeling his gaze on them, the two people stared at each other before making their move.
Before he could react a gunshot was heard. The people around started to cry in panic and at the same time, the two launched themselves toward the prince.
They were fast, faster than anyone he ever saw, and appeared in the eyes of many people like blures.
But for Tommy, everything was different because he was using the blood spell. It was a spell that overloaded the motor organs, the heart, and the brain with the blood of superior quality.
Since the moment he used this spell everything appeared in his view as a film in slow motion. It was a. uncomfortable feeling.
But since he knew that there were people who could attempt at his life, he maintained the spell.
Now it was coming into handy.
The first to reach the prince was a man dressed in the blue traditional robe of the Luo nation. When he punched at him, Tommy reflexively punched at him too.
When their punches met in the air, Tommy's expression fell. His hand was aching but his enemy did not flinch at all.
You need to know that Tommy had tested his power, he was at least thrice as strong as an adult human in this state, but the enemy could still keep up with him. The man was launching another fist when Tommy counter-attacked with his spell.
" gravity spell" from what Tommy tested the spell could multiply the feeling of weight by at least three.
Under the three-fold gravity, the man's movement started to slow down. He was now slower than Tommy allowing him to escape his strike.

Despite being under the spell's effect the man was still faster than a regular adult. The gravity increased again. Fivefold the gravity, eightfold, only under the ten-fold gravity did the man stop moving.
Tommy felt that the man was not even a human. But he did not even have the time to think that he fell goosebumps on his back.
Immediately he used 'teleportation spell' and appeared two meters away but as soon as he appeared he felt the same suffocating feeling of dread and teleported20 meters away.
He finally managed to see what was attacking him. It was the second man. The word fast could not describe his speed anymore, he was super fast. In less than a second, he crossed the distance that separated them and slashed at Tommy's neck with the knife in his hand.
Tommy was not experienced at all in this kind of battle where every move could make difference between life and death. He teleported once more and did this three times. But every time, the man in black seemed to grow closer.
Tommy was full of hesitation about whether he should fight or flee.
'Gravity spell' the gravity where the man was increased. But he was not there anymore. He had retreated five meters away giving some breather time to Tommy.
At this moment, Tommy saw the shortcoming of his spells. He could not go farther than 15 meters with his teleportation spell, and his gravity spell just covered a three-meter radius.
Amazingly his enemy discovered it so easily. The main reason for this was that with his lack of experience, he did not know how to conserve his strength and use it at the right time.
At that moment Tommy heard a roar behind him. Using all his strength the first assailant had exited the radius of the gravity spell and was now charging at him.
'Gravity spell"
Tommy tried to dispose of him like the first time but the man jumped to the side. He was not as fast as the second assailant but he was far faster than at the start of the fight.
" they were playing with me!" Tommy had a bitter smile on his face.
With one of them at the front and the other in the rear, Tommy did not dare to engage in a confrontation. He had a feeling that he will soon be unable to use spells again. After all, he did not even have time to see the maximum of spell he could cast.
"I should have prepared some more" Tommy regretted his brashness.
He disappeared once more and as soon as he appeared 25 meters away he regretted his decision.
At this moment of life and death like many protagonists in the story, he tried to surpass his limit and managed to do it by teleporting 10 meters farther than he ever did. The problem now was that he could not move anymore. It seemed to be the backlash after using the spell that way.
It was a fatal mistake when fighting two enemies already faster than yourself. Tommy also felt that he had at most five spells use left.
At this moment of life and death, Tommy knew that he already did something foolish. The only way to survive was to do something even more foolish now.
" blood spell"
Tommy used blood spells to the limit. If normally this spell could make things appear more clear, Tommy was now having vertigo, but the world around him appeared even slower.
Tommy was now calm, he saw the small moving assailant punching at him. He punched too and their punches met in midair. But something surprising happened. The " fire spell" was activated to the limit through his punch. The fire burned fiercely on both his and the enemy's arm.
" gravity spell" under the tenfold gravity field all the man could do was roll on the ground slowly and scream while he was burning.
But Tommy did not celebrate; the second man was coming at him with his knife raised.
Even Tommy tough that he was finished and calmly awaited his death.
It was at that moment that a figure launched itself between them.
It was the suicidal maiden. She managed to catch the man's arm and redirect it toward herself while she shielded the prince. The knife pierced through her chest and the man cried to retract his hand back but the girl was holding his hand with all her remaining strength while gazing at him fiercely.
At that time the man heard the prince say something. Whenever the prince used his strange powers he will start to mumble something. But it was idiotic, it was simply letting your enemy discover your tempo and letting him more time to prepare.
From the start, the man never heard what the prince was saying exactly. But now he could hear him, singing a song that brought despair to the deepest part of his soul.
'Gravity spell'
The man who was not even as strong as his companion felt the crushing hold of 10 fold gravity on his body.
" ice spell"
Little by little, he saw himself becoming an ice statue that was soon broken under the 10 fold gravity.
" We never knew that he was an evolver too" were his last thoughts in this world.
Alternative title: the way evolver fight
