The Rise Of Calamity

Chapter 100 - Entrance Exam III - The Masked White Knight



As Zarchon walked forwards, I could see from all the way up in the observation area that his legs were wobbling like jelly. While this caused me to chuckle a little, I was too curious to care much. I wanted to know which one of them was stronger, and if it was Zarchon, how Zack would react to know his brother was stronger.

\'I hope he gets into Rank A. Zack\'s face would be absolutely priceless\' I chuckled while intently getting closer to the one way glass panel in front me to observe better.

"TWINS I SEE?! I WONDER WHICH ONE IS MORE POWERFUL! WELL, GET READY TO FIND OUT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN" The presenter spoke while Zarch put his hand on the Gem with hesitation. Everyone went silent as the anticipation grew. Even after a few hours of watching, people were still this excited about knowing everyone\'s ranks, and this one was a possible A rank if Zarch was stronger the his brother.

"THE RESULTS ARE HERE!"

------

Zarchon Raven

Power level- 5002

Rank- A

Affinity: 40% water 50% ice

------

*...*

*CHEER CHEER*

Everyone in the stadium was cheering for the second A rank in the whole event, however, in the VIP stands were two people who had a different reaction than everyone else.

While my dad\'s eyes were wide due to not expecting Zarch to be stronger than his cocky brother, I was on the floor dying of laughter.

"HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA" I laughed, however, to others, the silent laugh was only interrupted by gasps of air. Due to me being face down, no one could see I was laughing, so they thought I was crying out of happiness.

Paul simply looked at me weirdly before asking my breathless panting self "Do you want a handkerchief?"

It took me a few seconds to calm myself down and reply "y-yeah. Thanks man" while patting his back. After seeing my joyful face, his thought of \'I didn\'t think of her as an emotional person\' changed to \'is she mentally right?\'.

"Panni, you shouldn\'t laugh at your brother" My father reprimanded

"Yeah, sorry. It was just too funny after everything he was saying about being strong. He even did the thumbs up thing to Zarch expecting him to be weaker. Oh my god, I want to see his expression!" I jumped excitedly before something flickered in my retina.

[Analysis of -Battle Intent- and -Battle Aura- has been completed.]

[Manual will be installed your mind]

[Notice!]

[You are not able to use battle aura the same way as the humans! Due to possessing a -Divine Soul flame-, you must find your own method of manipulating your battle intent]

[Notice!]

[You can edit the methods shown in the Manuel to produce and manipulate battle aura to become better suited to manipulating -Divine Battle Intent-]

\'I see. That aligns with what Juilam had informed me about divine energy. I can\'t use the same techniques they use, nor can I use mana the same way they do. However, I am able to analyse their spells to create a non-chant replica due to me being able to see the components that make the spell. However, with Divine things like Divine mana and souls, they have different components than normal mana and normal souls. It\'s like trying to manipulate earth the same way I manipulate fire.\'

However, before I could finish that thought, I something at the top of the stadium move. It was on the complete other side of the stadium, but due to my amazing eye sight, I could easily see it.

"Dad, I\'m going to go to the toilet."

"Oh, I should get someone to take yo-" my father tried to suggest, but I was already next to the door that led outside.

"No need. I\'ll just ask one of the workers" I said before closing the door so he couldn\'t suggest anything else.

\'Tell him I\'m probably going to see my brothers.\' I commanded through the mind link

\'Okay\' She replied

You might be asking, why don\'t I tell anyone else? Why do I choose to go alone? I am still a mid ethereal ranked human after all. Well, it is quite simply! I don\'t want to share my kills. Anyone else killing my treat would cause it\'s soul flame to dissipate immediately, but killing it myself gives me around 2 hours to eat it. The flame does weaken over time though, so the faster I eat it, the more pleasure I will receive!

\'I sound like a s3x maniac\' I sighed

Walking near a window, I quickly walked out of it before switching my gravity to the wall and walking up it. Mid-way however, I wore my black trench coat again with my mask, while putting my hood up so no one can recognize my hair.

After finally reaching the top, I crouched down to the floor before rolling to a ventilator and hiding behind it.

"I don\'t think there are going to be any S ranks this year." A man with a croaky voice spoke.

There were 4 people on this side of the stadium, and from what I could see, there was a group on every side of the stadium, waiting for something, or maybe, someone.

"Get the Sharpshooters ready. If there are no S ranks this year, we will just have to kill the 2 A ranks and a few of the B ranks who were close to A rank." Another man commanded

"YES SIR!" The others shouted before the one who seemed like the leader face palmed. "Idiots! Don\'t shout!" The man shouted

"Yes sir!" They whispered

\'So these guys are waiting for all the candidates to come out so they can kill them huh... I see. However, they made one grave mistake, and that was fucking with someone in my family!\'

"Sniper..."

The men seemed to have heard something from behind them, causing them to look back just to be greeted by a figure wearing a trench coat with their main theme being all black. While they might have been wearing all black, a bit of visible golden hair showing through the sides of the hood and mask, while through the two whole in the upper middle center of the mask, shone two golden eyes with radiance like none other.

They looked within the eyes of something truly terrifying. The raw dense energy emanating would cause an elephant to drop to it\'s knees, while their beauty was something only found in a deity. It\'s golden eyes seemed like they were made out of millions of Golden threads, each one holding a cosmos within. The white pupils glistened like a beautiful star swimming in the golden abyss.

The golden eyes had a strange feeling to them. They were lustful but not for sex, and they were gluttonous but not for food. They were filled with an authority of pride that would make the king himself feel outclassed.

"Galore"... even though the men did not know what it meant, It was the last word those men heard. Their lifeless bodies dropped to the floor as beams of multitude of colors shot right through their heads, hearts, arm and leg joints, making it so even if they survived the attack to the head, they would be incapacitated.

"Ugh" A soft moan left the lips of the masked girl in front of the brawly man who had not gotten enough time to realise what was happening to save any of his men

"I usually like them roasted and scared, but I\'m in quite a hurry so you\'re kind of lucky. Anyway \'Thank you for the meal\'" A melodious voice spoke through the mask of the girl, which even made the man think \'If I\'m going to die, I might as well die to her\' for a moment.

"And? You are but a child. You caught my subjects off guard but you lost the element of sur- sur- s-s-s- soHOLY CRAP IS THAT LIGHT MAGIC. An elemental swordsman! No, but we checked! They said there wont be any light magic users. We used illusion barriers and everything! P-p-please spare me! I\'ll tell you everything about us! I\'ll tell yo- MMMM- MHMMMMMMHMHMMMMMM!"

Finding the man too talkative, I simply wrapped my hand around the bottom of his face while raising him off the floor.

\'To think a Knight ranked warrior would cower like this... Truly pathetic" I thought while looking at the man who had lost control of his bladder. \'He would have put up a good match if he fought back. Why are they so scared of light magic? It\'s not like it\'s any better than the other elements...\'

Sighing, I finally spoke out loud, giving him the mercy of hearing the voice of his killer one more time before succumbing to the flames.

"May your sins burn with you" I lightly whispered, just loud enough for him to hear. While this phrase might sound cool and all, I wasn\'t actually thinking of saying it. It had just rolled off the tongue as if I had said it my whole life.

As if it was a chant, the moment my sentence ended, blue flames instinctively erupted out of the palms of my hands turning the man into ash in less than 20 seconds. I could feel the gazes of multiple people locking on me the moment the flames dissipated and the only thing left was the ash remains of the man that was once within my palm.

\'hmm\' I thought while pointing finger guns at two people behind the leader of the south side. I had killed everyone on the west side of the stadium, and from what I could see, they were the second smallest group, only consisting of 4 people. The North side had only one person, while the east side consisted of 8, and the south side of 11.

\'This is going to be fun... and tasty..\' I smiled manically behind the mask.
