Chapter 241: Learning More About The Cults
“I want to find out your absolute limit…” She said, her voice filled with determination.
And immediately, Zeras watched a spectacular transformation slowly bloom in front of her. It was like an incarnation of green had descended onto the world.
Her white hair slowly turned green, her eyes became completely covered in green. The runes on her huge bow also began to glow a bright green as green veins appeared all over her hands.
The transformation was ongoing and Zeras would really love to know how it ends but…
“Activate Dash…”
And immediately, two figures appeared in the room.
One was Zeras still standing where he was formerly while the other was right in front of her.
Slowly a finger gently pushed down her bow as the figure of Zeras ten meters away dispersed into thin air.
“There’s no need for that. We’ll just end up gravely injured. There’s no worth I’m such a fight…” Zeras whispered as he pushed down her bow and Gaia came to herself too.
Slowly the green hue surrounding her disappeared, as she became herself, her bow disappearing from her hands.
“You’ve grown strong Gaia. Incredibly strong than the first time I’ve met you. Have you joined the cults too…” He asked with furrowed eyebrows as Gaia raised her head, looking into his eyes.
“Too?” She asked with a raised eyebrow.
“I suddenly heard of this growing cult and all. I wonder what it is all about…” Zeras said as he shifted backward giving her space.
“It’s true. Some of the Cadets have been noted to suddenly possess strength far beyond their level. I’ve even witnessed one myself. But…”
“But what?” Zeras asked trying to glean more information.
“The power is fake.”
“What do you mean fake?’
“It’s like some sort of borrowed power. They usually have some tattoo in them and you will feel the energy being transmitted from the tattoo to them. It’s like they’re borrowing the strength of a powerful being. It’s not their strength at all. That type of strength no matter how powerful to me is fake and unreal. It’s a borrowed power!” Gaia replied, disgust written all over her face.
“That’s definitely interesting. I bet you must have been at first tempted too…” Zeras said with a chuckle.
He knew well just how much Gaia craved for strength. She wanted to grow stronger. Such an offer has definitely been able to pique her curiosity.
“I truly was. But just as I said, I am disgusted by such a thing. Besides, every exchange has its equivalent price. As for the price they’re asking, it’s not what I considered worth it.” Gaia said to him.
“They?”
“They’ve come to meet me here a few times. Each cult was different than the last. But I’ve turned all of them down…” Gaia said in an unbothered tone as she walked towards the wall where some of her arrows were lodged.
“And they simply let you leave?” Zeras asked surprised.
“You seemed to have forgotten what type of background, I have…” Gaia said removing the arrow from the wall as they dispersed into green motes of energy and entered into her hands.
“How can I have forgotten…” Zeras said clapping his hands on his forehead.
Gaia’s grandfather was Commander Shiron. She was an EIA Commander’s granddaughter. If even a single hair was damaged by them, then they’d be chased to the end of the world.
‘Tch, talk of the lucky young mistress…” Zeras thought feeling slightly jealous. She had rejected multitudes of cults while he was in trouble for simply rejecting one!
“Hope you don’t mind what I called you then. I’m sorry…” She said, with her head down.
“Nah, forgiven, forgotten. Call it anything you like. It seems you’ve been doing quite well. I just came to check on you. See you soon Gaia.”
Zeras said with a smile before turning and moving towards the door.
“Thanks for the free lessons. I’ll make sure to keep them in mind…” The words rang out as he gently closed the door.
“It’s nothing…” He whispered moving outside the training room as his eyes dangerously narrowed and he turned to look into the distance where a figure could be seen reclined on a wall.
Looking directly at him with a smile on his face as he raised his watch to his mouth and his lips moved.
“We’ve found the target…”
And he winked at Zeras before turning to enter into the dark alleyway.
“Let’s resolve all this stupidity this night…” Zeras said out loud as he began walking towards where the young man escaped.
“Activate Eyes of Chaos…” Zeras ordered as his eyes immediately pierced through the hundreds of structures locking on the figure of the young man who was running in a particular direction.
And then Zeras kept walking at his normal pace before suddenly he faded away from where he stood as if he was only a mirage.
Ethan’s eyes narrowed as he looked behind him seeing the rustling air that was moving with speed, quickly closing in on him.
Immediately, he raised his watch to his mouth.
“He had taken the bait. He’s currently chasing after me…” He said into the watch.
“Good. Lure him to the place!” The husky voice rang out from the watch.
“He’s moving thrice my speed. I need help…” Ethan screamed Into the watch as a rune suddenly appeared on his neck, dark gas oozing out from it.
Immediately, his speed massively increased as his body moved with horrifying speed tearing through the air like a shell.
“Huh?” Zeras raised an eyebrow as he looked at the young man he calculated he would catch up to within the next three minutes suddenly sped up.
“Wow, how can he move so fast? He’s only at the Early Meteor rank stage…” Zeras said with narrowed eyes but soon pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind as he coldly ordered.
“Activate Dash…”
He’ll be catching that young man and forcing answers from his mouth after taking him on a tour through hell and back.
