Althea was able to block off Walion Mori's attack because she used flame dragon energy while setting up a barrier or else with her third stage low-level strength, she would have suffered greatly
Althea was furious at Walion Mori, he didn't even put her mother Furiana in his eyes.
Raising her pitch in a sharp tone, Althea said, "With just a mid-level strength, you think you can make me cower in fear! You think I didn't know what you and your clan had been doing behind the scenes!"
Walion Mori's pupils constricted after hearing what Althea just said.
"What nonsense are you spouting!" he quickly retorted.
Walion Mori clearly knows what Althea was saying and he didn't want others to know about it. Especially Furiana because she didn't know that it was Walion Mori who orchestrated the Beast incident months ago which nearly took Althea's life.
Althea walked up to Walion Mori and said while looking straight into his eyes, "Nonsense or not, you know it very well. But let me tell you one thing, I am quite a vengeful person, so, I am going to pay you back all the things you have done to me and my family"
At this moment, Walion Mori didn't know why but he felt all the blood in his body frozen and he could not move or utter even a single word. Looking at Althea's pitch black eyes, he could feel strong pressure from it and had the urge to kneel.
It was because Athea used her Divine level pressure to intimidate Walion Mori.
"How dare you to talk like this to our Young Master!" shouted the guard behind Walion Mori.
Althea shifted her attention towards the guard and as soon that guard met his eyes with that of Althea's, he could feel a shiver run down his spine.
Walion Mori quickly regained his composure after he lost contact with Althea's eyes. He didn't know what happened to him just now.
"Just because you can block one of my attacks doesn't mean you could defeat me"
Walion Mori said with scorn.
"Young Master Mori, you are going too far," said Furiana as her pretty face instantly turned dark.
"Young Master, I can handle her," said the guard behind Walion Mori as he steps up and faced Furiana.
As the only heir of the Mori clan, Walion Mori was well protected by many strong guards.
Althea quickly looked towards the direction where Northem was hiding in the shadows.
Getting a hint from Althea, Northem smiled while shaking his head. Northem had already broken through the first level of Heaven grade Breathing technique Althea had given him five days back. So, now only those at the Divine level would be able to detect his existence. But still, Althea could easily find him.
In a flash, Northem appeared in front of Furiana blocking off Walion Mori's guard.
"Haha, just one high-level guard and you dare to mess with me," Walion Mori said with a smug on his face
With his two high level and one mid-level guard, Walion Mori was confident.
On the other hand, Althea too was confident that she would be able to take down those guards and Walion Mori with the help of Northem because she knew that Northem recently attained the peak high-level strength when he breakthrough to the first level of the breathing technique.
She had scanned the surrounding using her divine sense to make sure that there is no more Mori clan's guard hiding in the shadows. She is not reckless.
The two parties were about to fight when they felt strong pressure coming from one of the tables near the door.
It was the same man who recognized Althea's Finger Art Barrier from before.
"Monarch level expert!" many people in the dining hall gasped in shock. No one had released that there was a monarch-level expert among them, of course, Althea doesn't count. She had already taken note of everyone in the hall the moment she entered and she was aware of his existence.
Althea quickly spread her divine sense and covered Furiana and Northem to block the pressure.
Furiana didn't notice anything but Northem quickly glance towards Althea. When Althea spread her divine sense and covered them, he could feel a strong pressure immediately vanish while the people from Mori Clan and others in the hall were intimidated by the pressure.
The man was also quite surprised at how the three of them were not affected by his monarch-level pressure.
"Little girl, I see you have a great comprehension talent. Are you interested in joining the Rainbow Cloud Academy"
The man said as he withdraws his pressure, he stood up and walked towards Althea
Everyone was now looking at Althea with a hint of envy in their eyes. Not everyone can join the Rainbow Cloud Academy, only those with great innate talent and genius among geniuses can join the Academy.
Walion Mori was shocked too because the one whom he treated as trash was now being scouted by one of the five great powers, that too in front of him.
"Sir, you may not know but this girl is a very well-known trash in the Alfing city. She was born with a damaged spirit seed" said Walion Mori with scorn.
The man turned towards Walion Mori and said, "If a trash can comprehend a Finger Art Barrier at the third stage of low level then, I don't mind calling you a trash of a trash"
Others might not know but he knows very well how difficult it is to master Finger arts.
"I don't want to meddle in the affairs of the clans in the southern region, so, now scram before I change my mind", the man said once again emitting a strong monarch level pressure on Walion Mori and his guards.
One of the guards quickly bowed towards the man and said, "Great Master, Forgive our young master if he had offended you. We will take our leave"
The guard quickly nudged Walion Mori who was stupefied and took him out of the inn.
Althea knew that the five great powers had sent the monarch-level expert to recruit some hidden talents taking the advantage of the appearance of peerless treasure. As the former Sovereign of the Hall of Mage, she knew the workings of the five great powers.
The man shifted his attention back to Althea and said, "I am Ociath Dann, Head supervisor of the Mage Division from the Rainbow cloud Academy"
He took out a round red metal badge which had a cloud pattern carved on it and showed it to Althea as proof of his identity, "It is your good fortune to join our force"
Althea inwardly rolled her eyes and thought, 'Good fortune, my axx'
"Master Ociath, thank you for thinking highly of me but I am not interested," Althea said calmly.
The hall was thrown into complete silence. No one had expected that Althea would turn down the invitation from one of the great powers in the land of Dura because everyone dreamt of joining either one of the five powers. Even Ociath was taken aback by Althea's words. It was his first time facing rejection because almost everyone would be on cloud nine when given such an invitation but Althea was different.
Furiana was not surprised because Althea already told her that she would only join the Hall of Mage. Whereas Northem had a wry smile on his face, he knew that his Young Miss is out of the ordinary and is no longer surprised by her words.
Ociath sighed, there was a helpless smile on his handsome face. Taking out a round White metal badge from his spatial bracelet, he said, "Well, I can't force you to join the Academy if you don't want to but, in case if you change your mind, you can take this badge and come find me anytime"
Althea knew everyone with status in five great powers but she didn't know Ociath because he rose to fame during these sixteen years. But she had a good impression of him, she smiled and took the badge, "thank you Master Ociath for respecting my decision, my name is Althea Luvan, if I change my mind, I will come and find you"
"Your name is Althea!"
