Chereads / Sky Chasers: Scale of Judgment / Chapter 57 - Battle with the Descendants

Chapter 57 - Battle with the Descendants

The battle on other arenas already started. No one can hear anything that's happening inside the arena because of the barriers that prevent sound from traveling outside.

The battle inside the Forgery Arena started as the furnaces glowed brightly and two of the descendants are placing the steel ingots on the burning furnace.

Meanwhile, two of the descendants are preparing to fight inside the Battle Arena, both of them are stretching and then proceed to their fighting poses before the marquis who is in charge of that arena started the battle.

On the Alchemy Arena, Marquis Anthony already started the battle but both of the contestants only examined the herbs first and then Angelica started the fire while Luis took the cauldron and examined the exterior and interior of it, then he knocked on it twice before he laid it down and started adding some of his ingredients before starting a fire.

The descendants and the other marquises were shocked to see Luis putting the herbs before the fire, after a few minutes, using his energy, Luis took some ashes and threw them on the fire as he started adding beast blood in the cauldron. The ashes glowed and flew upwards like flickering sparkles. Luis added another batch of herbs and put the flames into the highest as the cauldron started to shake because of the pressure.

While people are looking at Luis, Angelica was brewing a colorful mixture inside her cauldron as radiance appeared and caught everyone's attention. The lights danced as the steam from her cauldron made different shapes and form different beasts like the Rainbow Feathered Peacock, Radiant Koi, and Flaming Pegasus.

All of their attention was on Angelica while Luis was left alone concocting his medicine.

An hour passed and the three beasts dissipated as Angelica poured the concoction on a vial and it looked like she was holding a bulb full of colorful lights.

At the same time, an explosion happened at Luis's side as black smoke covered his area. All of the people looked at him and some of the descendants have ridicule on their expression as they looked at him with scorn in their eyes.

"That's what the Physician trying to know how to do Alchemy gets! Accepting a challenge from Angelica? Didn't he know that even though that girl is naive, no other descendant can't win from that girl in terms of Alchemy!" The eldest descendant smirked.

The ridicule on their faces quickly turns into shock when the smoke faded and they saw Luis holding a case with 5 glowing white pills on it.

"He cheated! He switched and pulled out pills while there was smoke!" The eldest descendant exclaimed.

"I will check if he cheated or not." A Duke stood up and went to the Alchemy Arena and examined a pill from Luis's hand.

"This pill is still hot and from its temperature and freshness of the aura, I can assure you that this pill was made a minute ago!" The Duke announced and placed the pill back to its case.

From the Forgery Arena, two young men made a sword and a shield. The king tested both of the artifacts and struck them against each other as hard as he can, the sword broke thus the maker of the shield won the battle.

At the Battle Arena, the user of the earth element won the battle because the opponent surrendered.

Luis and Angelica shook hands and went to the platform where the royal family sat. Angelica handed the vial to the king as the king examined the vial before passing it to Agnes.

"What is that medicine?" The king asked.

"That medicine is called, Instant Rejuvenation Potion, it can make even the most wrinkled person go back to the time of their peak, like a teenager once again! It can also rejuvenate the internal of that person, thus extending one's life!" Angelica explained.

"I'm giving this to you as my gift, mom!" Agnes went to the queen's throne and handed the potion to her.

"You really think that I'm that old, my child?" The queen looked at Agnes.

"No mom, but it can make you look more beautiful than now!" Agnes replied as she looked at the king and winked.

Luis saw this lewd expression of the princess that made him chuckle.

"Your turn young man! Mind explaining what is this medicine that you made?" The king asked when he saw that the young man saw what the princess did.

"Your majesty, I suggest to let the princess take a pill to see what it can make!" Luis replied.

The king looked at the princess and she nodded back as she took the case from the king.

"Your highness, before you consume the pill, think of the thing that you really want to do and picture it in your mind the moment you consume the pill," Luis instructed.

The princess nodded as she closed her eyes and after a few moments, she consumed the pill and slowly, energies gathered around her as it concentrated on her back, and slowly, a translucent wing emerged from her back, it looked colorful like a butterfly's wings.

She looked at it and a smile appeared on her face as she flapped those wings and it lifted her in the sky. Trails of aura marked the place she went as sparkles surrounded her. The moment looked surreal like a fairy was flying in the sky as all of the people inside watched how wonderful is the person flying around.

The people mesmerized the moment until the princess landed on the throne. The king and queen stood up as they walked to the princess.

"Mom, Dad! I flew! I did it! I fly around! I have wings!" The princess exclaimed and hugged her parents as tears escaped from her eyes.

"Yes, my dear! You really flew!" The queen comforted the lady.

"You looked graceful, little sis! That's amazing!" The eldest prince praised the princess.

"Truly mesmerizing, indeed!" The second prince added.

"What is that medicine that you made young man?" The king asked while the young lady was still crying at them.

"That medicine is called, the Will Transformation Pill. As soon as one willed it, it will materialize, if one will is half-hearted, ordinary stuff will happen, but I guess the princess's will to fly is too strong thus this event happened." Luis explained.

"I'm buying the remaining pills, 1 million energy cores each!" The king stated.

"1 million energy cores? That's equivalent to 100 million energy crystals each, which means, it costs 400 million in total!" One of the dukes exclaimed.

"I'm sorry, your majesty! I'm greatly tempted by the offer but those pills aren't mine now." Luis apologized as he bowed to the king.

"What do you mean? We saw you concocted it and Duke Guizon even verified it!" The king exclaimed.

"Those pills aren't mine now because it already belongs to the princess. Your highness, I present to you these pills as my gift to your day!" Luis bowed as a shocked expression emerged from everyone's faces.

"He gifted that 4 million energy cores away, as simple as that?" One of the descendants exclaimed.

The princess wiped her tears away as she faced Luis and said, "I gladly accept this wonderful gift from you, in exchange, accept this reward for your generosity!"

She handed a small crystalline emblem with the mark of the Royalty to Luis.

"That is my symbol as the Princess of this Kingdom, you may use it as much as you like around this kingdom and it will signify that your will is also my will!" The princess explained.

"This humble follower of yours is not worthy for such a gift, but I'll accept your highness's generosity!" Luis accepted the emblem as it disintegrated and the energy rushed to his hands.

"Now, you can't return it to me!" The princess smiled at him as the mark of the Royalty emerged from Luis's mark. It was placed at the top center part, just above the Mark of the Sky Chasers.

"Now, I gladly announce that-" The king was about to announce when a small delicate hand appeared in front of him signifying him to stop.

"Let me do this Dad!" The princess smiled as she took a step forward.

"I gladly announce that the winner of this match is our dear guest, Ignacius Luis Delmont! I also want to take this opportunity to announce that I, Agnes Cristine Springfield, would like to take Angelica Arland, daughter of Marquis Anthony Arland, to be my Personal Companion from here on out! Do you accept it?" Agnes announced as she looked towards the young lady in front of her.

Angelica looked back to her father as Marquis Anthony smiled and nodded back at her.

Angelica looked back at Princess Agnes and smiled. "I gladly accept it, your highness! I will serve you wholeheartedly!"

"Now, take this time to issue a challenge to the person you want to challenge!" The king announced.

As soon as the king finished the announcement, a man walked towards Luis as he looked at him with a blaze in his eyes.

"I challenge you to a match in the Battle Arena!" The eldest descendant issued the challenge.

"Okay! I accept!" Luis smiled at him as they both went to the centermost arena and prepared to fight.

"Again! No using of artifacts and no lethal attacks!" The marquis who is in charge of the Battle Arena reminded.

"If you're ready, we can start the match whenever you want!" The marquis informed.

"Let him decide the start!"
