|
||
|
||
Max’s eyes widened—
|
||
|
||
His face darkened.
|
||
|
||
Aurelia stood unmoved, her expression unreadable.
|
||
|
||
But the Young Monarch wasn’t done.
|
||
|
||
"Your choice. You have a month."
|
||
|
||
His gaze swept over the entire East Region—
|
||
|
||
A silent warning.
|
||
|
||
Then, his voice boomed once more.
|
||
|
||
"And this is for everyone listening…"
|
||
|
||
The air trembled—
|
||
|
||
Every leader, every warrior, every bystander held their breath.
|
||
|
||
"It would do you all well not to interfere in the matters of the Monarch from now on."
|
||
|
||
The sky rumbled—as if the heavens themselves were acknowledging his decree.
|
||
|
||
"Otherwise—"
|
||
|
||
The weight of his words crushed down like an executioner’s blade.
|
||
|
||
"Blood shall be shed."
|
||
|
||
"People shall be killed."
|
||
|
||
"And the East… shall be destroyed."
|
||
|
||
Max’s expression darkened.
|
||
|
||
He had never expected the Young Monarch to go this far—
|
||
|
||
To force his hand.
|
||
|
||
To threaten an entire region just to draw him out.
|
||
|
||
’Someone… told him about me.’
|
||
|
||
His mind raced.
|
||
|
||
The Black Lotus guild’s report…
|
||
|
||
An anonymous figure had revealed his existence to the Monarch.
|
||
|
||
The Phoenix Order…
|
||
|
||
The same thing happened.
|
||
|
||
’Who the hell is pulling the strings?’
|
||
|
||
His gaze hardened as he watched the face in the sky dissolve, the black clouds slowly fading—
|
||
|
||
Leaving behind nothing but a clear, open sky.
|
||
|
||
Then—
|
||
|
||
A final whisper—
|
||
|
||
A voice only he could hear.
|
||
|
||
"Max... we will meet soon."
|
||
|
||
And with that—
|
||
|
||
The storm had passed.
|
||
|
||
Max glanced at the sky, letting out a slow sigh.
|
||
|
||
’It seems… I have no choice but to go to the Black Lotus Guild.’
|
||
|
||
Whether he liked it or not, they were the only faction that could take him in after he left the Phoenix Order.
|
||
|
||
And at this point—
|
||
|
||
Leaving wasn’t just an option.
|
||
|
||
It was necessary.
|
||
|
||
A must.
|
||
|
||
He wouldn’t risk Alice’s life for his own stubbornness.
|
||
|
||
If his departure meant the Young Monarch would back off—
|
||
|
||
Then he was willing to take the deal.
|
||
|
||
For Alice.
|
||
|
||
Alice’s face fell, her eyes filled with worry.
|
||
|
||
She turned back to her mother.
|
||
|
||
"Mother, what’s going on? Why is that man after Max? And you won’t expel him from the guild… right?"
|
||
|
||
Her voice was urgent, her tone pleading.
|
||
|
||
Aurelia let out a slow sigh.
|
||
|
||
"That… I don’t know. But we have a month. That’s enough time to come up with something."
|
||
|
||
She placed a reassuring hand on Alice’s shoulder.
|
||
|
||
"Don’t worry."
|
||
|
||
Alice nodded slowly, though the unease in her heart remained.
|
||
|
||
She turned toward Max—
|
||
|
||
But he looked away.

|
||
|
||
"I’m tired. I’ll talk to you later."
|
||
|
||
Without another word, he walked off, his steps heavy as he made his way back to his house in the guild.
|
||
|
||
Alice watched him go, her hands clenching into fists.
|
||
|
||
***
|
||
|
||
Back in his room, Max changed into his casual clothes and collapsed onto the bed.
|
||
|
||
His mind weighed heavy.
|
||
|
||
"Things have changed now."
|
||
|
||
He sighed, staring at the ceiling.
|
||
|
||
Never had he expected that after leaving the temple and returning to the guild, things would spiral out of control.
|
||
|
||
And worst of all—
|
||
|
||
Nothing had gone in his favor.
|
||
|
||
But—
|
||
|
||
Worrying wouldn’t change anything.
|
||
|
||
He took a slow, deep breath—
|
||
|
||
And stepped into his Dimension of Time.
|
||
|
||
—
|
||
|
||
Pure white.
|
||
|
||
An endless expanse of nothingness.
|
||
|
||
A world without boundaries, without distractions—
|
||
|
||
Just silence.
|
||
|
||
Just peace.
|
||
|
||
Max stood there, letting the emptiness wash over him.
|
||
|
||
A feeling he hadn’t felt in a long time.
|
||
|
||
"Alright… time to train."
|
||
|
||
Max focused, steadying his breath.
|
||
|
||
He had four skills and two techniques to master.
|
||
|
||
But before that—
|
||
|
||
He needed something that would push his strength to a whole new level.
|
||
|
||
His Fusion State Aura sat at 21% completion—
|
||
|
||
Right now, it only contained Sword Aura and Flame Aura.
|
||
|
||
But that wasn’t enough.
|
||
|
||
Lightning Aura had to be fused next.
|
||
|
||
As for Space Aura—it was still at Level 1. Until it reached Level 2, fusing it was impossible.
|
||
|
||
Max closed his eyes, his mind sharpening like a blade.
|
||
|
||
’Let’s do this.’
|
||
|
||
Max stood motionless, eyes shut, his breath steady.
|
||
|
||
The white world faded.
|
||
|
||
All that remained—the storm within.
|
||
|
||
He reached inward, calling forth his Lightning Aura.
|
||
|
||
It answered instantly.
|
||
|
||
Sparks flickered. Purple lightning crackled to life, coiling around his limbs like living serpents. The air thrummed, heavy with charged energy, buzzing with raw, untamed power.
|
||
|
||
Then—
|
||
|
||
From the depths of his being, Fusion State aura stirred.
|
||
|
||
A crushing force erupted from his core, causing the very air to tremble.
|
||
|
||
Where Lightning Aura was wild, unpredictable—
|
||
|
||
Fusion State was absolute.
|
||
|
||
Refined. Controlled. Unyielding.
|
||
|
||
The moment they met—
|
||
|
||
They clashed.
|
||
|
||
Lightning surged, erratic, resisting control.
|
||
|
||
Fusion State imposed its dominance, demanding order.
|
||
|
||
They repelled, refusing to merge.
|
||
|
||
Max’s body trembled as shockwaves erupted around him. Arcs of violet lightning slammed into an invisible barrier of pure force, the collision tearing at the very air, clashing on Max’s body.
|
||
|
||
They were incompatible.
|
||
|
||
Max gritted his teeth, sweat beading on his forehead.
|
||
|
||
He had expected this.
|
||
|
||
Lightning was chaos—it refused control.
|
||
|
||
Fusion State was command—it rejected disorder.
|
||
|
||
But they weren’t enemies.
|
||
|
||
He exhaled.
|
||
|
||
Instead of forcing them together—
|
||
|
||
He let them flow.
|
||
|
||
He didn’t suppress the lightning.
|
||
|
||
He didn’t try to cage it.
|
||
|
||
He let it move, wild yet unrestricted, freely roaming through the boundaries of Fusion State.
|
||
|
||
At first, the two remained distant, still resisting—still rejecting.
|
||
|
||
Then—
|
||
|
||
Max guided them.
|
||
|
||
He let Fusion State shape the lightning, not as a force to contain it—but to refine it.
|
||
|
||
The change was subtle at first.
|
||
|
||
The crackling arcs no longer lashed out violently.
|
||
|
||
They adapted.
|
||
|
||
The Fusion State Aura no longer tried to crush the storm—it wove around it, stabilizing it, amplifying its strength instead of fighting it.
|
||
|
||
The tension in space thickened.
|
||
|
||
The air grew heavier.
|
||
|
||
Then—
|
||
|
||
BOOM!
|
||
|
||
A detonation of power erupted.
|
||
|
||
Lightning-infused Fusion State was born.
|
||
|
||
Max’s body ignited with a new aura—one coursing with streaks of electrified energy.
|
||
|
||
No longer just structure—it was speed. It was fluidity. It was raw, unrelenting intensity.
|
||
|
||
A reborn power.
|
||
|
||
Lightning no longer opposed Fusion State—it became part of it.
|
||
|
||
The once-contained force now surged with motion, its speed and destructive energy woven into its very essence.
|
||
|
||
Max clenched his fists.
|
||
|
||
His veins roared.
|
||
|
||
His aura crackled and burned, alive yet controlled.
|
||
|
||
This was no longer just Fusion State Aura of the last time.
|
||
|
||
This was—
|
||
|
||
Fusion State aura of Sword Aura, Flame Aura and Lightning Aura fused into one.
|
||
|
||
All three of them at level 2.
|
||
|
||
[Fusion State is increased to 30%]
|
||
|
||
’This power… it’s far stronger than Fusion State at 20%.’
|
||
|
||
Max could feel it—
|
||
|
||
The sheer density of his aura.
|
||
|
||
The intent behind it was overwhelming, powerful enough to shatter any Level 3 Aura with ease.
|
||
|
||
Even he hadn’t expected this level of improvement.
|
||
|
||
’I guess fusing three auras increased the strength qualitatively.’
|
||
|
||
This wasn’t just an addition of power.
|
||
|
||
It was an evolution.𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
|
||
|
||
His Fusion State Aura wasn’t just stronger—
|
||
|
||
It was becoming something far beyond normal comprehension.
|
||
|
||
A small smirk formed on his lips.
|
||
|
||
Satisfied.
|
||
|
||
—
|
||
|
||
Without wasting time, Max took out the Voidborne Edge: Sevenfold Sword Technique.
|
||
|
||
He flipped through the ancient scroll, his eyes scanning the details.
|
||
|
||
Seven sword attacks.
|
||
|
||
At least—
|
||
|
||
That’s what it claimed to be.
|
||
|
||
Yet, the more he read—
|
||
|
||
The more confused he became.
|
||
|
||
Not a single movement resembled a traditional sword technique.
|
||
|
||
There were no slashes. No thrusts. No defensive counters.
|
||
|
||
It was… bizarre.
|
||
|
||
’This technique is very strange… Not a single sword attack looks like a sword attack to me.’
|
||
|
||
His gaze shifted to the first move—
|
||
|
||
Evil Wheel of Samsara.
|
||
|
||
Just the name alone carried a mysterious weight.
|
||
|
||
Max frowned.
|
||
|
||
Something about it—
|
||
|
||
Felt unnatural. |
