Chapter—18

“Over here” The only sound which made a sense, while a big group of people dashed aimlessly these words were the only thing guiding them, the Squad of non-magic users which was led by Ryler were escorting all the slaves of the royal family through the escape route.

Some were pushed, some were dragged, some were provided with support and helped, willingly or not they were all carried out of their home and were taken to a completely unknown place.

The squad leader was giving the directions so that all the people could be taken to a secure point, he needed to make sure that no harm is caused to anyone, with Ichijo on the rear guard they were moving as fast as they could.

Their destination was the harbour which made this country a prosperous as it gave them sea route for trade, at port already Junichi was present his body heavily wounded still he was sitting with a sword in his hand, he knew that in conditions like these enemies can strike, he didn’t relaxed even a single muscle till the point he saw his commander walking towards the harbour.

Silverous K Dragon arrived at the scene, he walked straight to junichi who was putting his sword back into the stealth, junichi knew that if this man have come to aid, he no longer needs his blade, this man is more reliable than even his own life.

“You look pretty beat up?”—Silverous to Junichi

“Yeah, my opponent was pretty tough.”—Junichi

“Nice excuse, I know you had stretch out fight, you might have not even used emperor’s will.”—Silverous

“No, I did used, but at last.”—Junichi

“Except me and Rayleigh, you are the only one in revolutionary army who can use emperor’s magic and look at you, completely worn out after fighting someone who was inferior to you in everything.”—Silverous

“You can’t blame me for that.”—Junichi

“You should go all out from the beginning I think I thought you and Ryler both at least that.”—Silverous

“Yes you did, but it is hard to do that, I’m not like you people I can’t even use basic magic, it was me and my sword from the beginning, then this rare power decides to show itself and everything changed.”—Junichi

“Still like I sad, I thought you how to use it and you should use it, or you will die.”—Silverous

“Like hell I would.”—Junichi gives him an answer with a smiling face.

Silverous turns around to look around, he finds that no slave had been brought here, till the point.

“Where are the escapees?”—Silverous

“They must be on their way here. I got a call already about that, so you don’t need to worry about that.”—Junichi

“I will worry till the point fools like you are around me.”—Silverous

“Then I think you will turn bald worrying about us, because we are going to stick around you forever, we won’t die.”—Junichi

“Guess you are right.”—Silverous

“Well, actually I’m worried about our second team which is headed towards Aeries, I know many monsters from our side have gone there, but they can’t fight an elementist, you should have sent me instead.”—Junichi

“Well, I guess this is the result of my carelessness.”—Silverous

“What, are you trying to tell me that there is someone among them, who can use Emperor’s magic too?”—Junichi

“No, you fool like I already told you only me you and Rayleigh can use it to a certain degree, but you don’t know about Yukina and Harold, they got their own way to deal with things.”—Silverous

“How will I know it was my first time watching them, I have heard about Lady Yukina but about Harold?”—Junichi

“Yes, you might not have heard about him, but he is someone in his own league, his ability is as crazy as yours, if not more?”—Silverous

Yukina, Harold, Gracel, Ryler and Ira who were sent to Aries a faraway land in the north on a mission to retrieve a celestial stone which is a huge source of magic power and to even tap on the royal family to confirm their relation with Soberian Trinity.

Ira was with gorgeous Yukina setting up the marks for their plan, Ira was somehow controlling himself and trying not to get distracted by Yukina, Yukina was definitely the most beautiful woman in Revolutionary army, she looked like she was around 25 though her real age might be over 100 years, her pearl like with skin was exposed from her clothing, she had beautiful long brown hair which covered some part of her face and green eyes, her red rosy lips were like cherry on the cake, which made here look so beautiful. While Ira had his face hidden behind a mask and his whole body was covered with a layer of clothing, Ira was carrying a sword around his waist.

“So, why are we setting these marks all over the place?”—Yukina

“These are teleportation seals, they will teleport each and every non-living object in area bounded by them.”—Ira

“Ok, so we will directly teleport entire place in our country.”—Yukina

“No, teleportation requires a great amount of magic, and the amount of magic used depends on both distance and weight, if we were to teleport this entire place not even Commander Silverous power would be enough.”—Ira

“So, where we are taking all this?”—Yukina

“There is a place around city, I found it and Gracel gave her approval to me, don’t you know anything about our plan?”—Ira

“Not at all, Gracel didn’t care to tell us about this, she just asked to focus on our work, and you know this is a mission with two phases of operations or you can say we have two different objectives.”—Yukina

“Yes, I know, this is all set now let’s proceed to next site.”—Ira

Ira moves his hand forward for Yukina to hold it, Yukina gives her hand to him, her soft and silky hands which were as soft as fluffy cotton felt very delightful to Ira, mere sensation of her hand made him lose his mind track for a moment.

Ira teleported both of them to the next spot, Ira gently puts his arm on the when an explosion occurred at that point.

A bright light busted from beneath the ground and with a loud sound the explosion occurred, Ira and Yukina both were blown away. They were both lying on the ground covered with wounds and dust all over the faces, most of the part of their body was actually burnt, it was a miracle itself that both were still breathing with their eyes open, tears started flowing through their eyes.

“Aaahh……aaa…….” Ira screamed in pain, this intense sensation of pain was something he never felt before, his body was no longer functioning properly, and his vision was getting blur with every passing second, the darkness was slowly spreading in front of his eyes. His clothes were torn apart and his mask was ripped off.

He was at the doors of death still struggling for life, he didn’t wanted to die like this ‘Just move you, heal, heal yourself, you have seen worse.’ –Ishaan spoke to himself.

He knew about his healing abilities but at this time they were also useful, blood was flowing out of his wound which were still open, nothing was happening to his wounds, which made him scared even more.

He looked at his burnt hands with his eyes filled with tears, he was feeling miserable, and he was never so pathetic before.

‘Wait what is this?’—Ishaan thought

He looked at his hands again they were perfectly normal, there was no pain, he felt perfectly normal, he was not also lying on the ground he was still touching the ground in the same position as he was doing before the explosion, just the difference was that his eyes were still filled with tears, tears of pain.

His mind was still not ready to believe that all that never happened, he turned and looked at Yukina even her eyes were filled with tears, she also had the same expression as Ira, and their faces were filled fear, and they had turned pale after experiencing the same thing.

“Don’t stop and do your job.”—Gracel

Both of them heard Gracel voice and looked in the direction where the voice came from, both of them found Gracel pointing a blade on a man’s throat, the man looked nearly 25 year old. Gracel face was also covered with mask and she was also wearing clothes similar to Ira.

“Oye, sis I lifted the illusion so.”—Aron

“So, what?”—Gracel

“What else release me, huh..haaa.”—Aron the one who made Ira and Yukina go through that experience was laughing and casually talking to Gracel

“Who is he?”—Yukina

“You shouldn’t mind him, he is just someone.”—Gracel

“Oh, I’m her brother Aron, her blood related brother.”—Aron spoke as loud as he could without any care in the world, he was in an enemy territory and was laughing, giggling and making faces like psycho.

Both Ira and Yukina were surprised upon hearing the revelation of Aron identity, Gracel’s real brother is this psychotic freak.

“You idiot, what you want to accomplish doing all this?”—Gracel

“Ah! Nothing and don’t worry all the people are already experiencing same thing as they both did, they will not do a thing, they might as well be dead.”—Aron

The way this man speak can really make people freak out, he says all the stuff with a weird psychotic smile while laughing like a maniac. He makes people feel miserable just by looking at him.

“Ira, just do it.”—Gracel

“Yes, I’m on it.”—Ira

Ira forgets about this freak and starts focusing on his work, he sits and starts drawing the mark on the ground.

“Finishes with it.”—Ira

“Ok, now move to next spot that’s the final point, I will take care of my idiot brother here.”—Gracel

Upon hearing gracel statement Aron turned and looked at her with a weird and scary smile.

“So, sis you finally want to spend some time with me.”—Aron

Ira and Yukina without questioning any further leaves Gracel behind, they knew that Gracel is more than capable of taking care of her, she is strong cunning and fast. Ira teleports Yukina along with her on the next spot and starts drawing the mark there when a voice comes from behind.

“So, what exactly are you trying to do here?”

Ira and Yukina turned behind and they found a stranger standing behind them, he was wearing clothes of an assassin’s organisation, Ira and Yukina recognized those clothes at the first sight and without any delay Ira teleported near him, took his sword out and cut his head of his neck.

His head fell down on the ground, within few seconds it was over, the assassin couldn’t even react to Ira’s speed and lost his head.

Ira stood their looking at the dead man’s body with amazement, there was no blood flowing out of the body his body was standing still which was really odd, after the head is cut-off a human body needs to fall down but his body is standing still, Ira looks at his skull which was reacting, his skull was slowly disintegrating into green coloured air and that air was flowing straight to his body, at the place where his head was supposed to be.

“Get back he is an elementist, physical attack won’t work on him.”—Yukina

Yukina knew what was happening here so she called Ira back to retrieve Ira was useless against someone like him, his attacks won’t have any effect on the assassin.

“What is he?”—Ira

“He is an elementist, they are the biggest pain mages whose body turns into the element they have master mastered on their wish, they are invulnerable against any physical attack and most of the Magical attacks as well, especially the ones of the same element, like he is wind elementist wind type attacks are useless against him.”—Yukina

Meanwhile Yukina explains Ira about Elementist the head of the assassin was already healed.

“You, are quite quick on the toes, it is first time in many years that someone’s blade reached my head.”--Assassin
