After their conversation .. the leader asked one of the frost disciples .. to walk out their guests
who was specifically the mean woman ..
she led them outside the mansion and showed them around the village ...
they went to different places .. like stalls for food ... and other stuff ..
and on the tour the woman did nothing but look at Theo with disdain and curiosity ...
"Other than stalls .. isn't there a place .. much more interesting .. " Theo asked ..
the woman snorted and looked away as they crossed the streets ..
along the way ... captain Rose and Theo realised that ... their tour was getting off course .. as they walked past ... many houses ... towards an empty space ... that had ... some sort of ice element crackling in the air like lightning ..
the frost strikes .. burrowed into the ground ... blowing up chunks of rocks ...
in the middle was a giant black cage .. surrounded by an ice formation ... that would strike anyone who came close ..
"I knew it ... you wanted us dead .. you just couldn't keep me alive .." Theo said ... as a chortle escaped his lips ..
"Disciple 3 .. what are we doing here ..??" Laura asked as they stared at the black cage ..
Theo noticed that .. the power surrounding the cage was striking something inside of it ...
with his heightened sight .. he could see some dark whips like lightning striking the thing inside ...
he could even hear the sounds of the whips getting stuck into the meat .. however .. blood never gushed out ...
and he never saw any energy flowing out of the wounds of the shadowed beast inside ...
"We're here .. on the orders of the leader ... there is a creature inside that cage that we think is going to help us through this madness .." the woman spoke .. as she pointed at the cage ..
"I sense that .. indeed there's a creature inside .. the cage .. but so what ... what are its traits ... share with us .. what kind of creature is it ... that you even claim it's possible to be of help to you ..." Theo said ... analysing the cage and gathering his senses inside the cage ...
there were thread like lines ... more like red and dark black vines ... slashing at the thing inside .. but the more he analyzed .. he found out that ... there were thin lines .... made of flesh .. covering something I a cocoon ....
but since he couldn't see the specific details .. he could only make assumptions ... as he mixed in what he found .. and what he knew ...
as he moved his sight ... he could sense .. two sharp auras surrounding the very same cocoon .. and they were the only part of the creature that weren't covered ...
as he sensed more .. he could finally make out something in his head ..
"Wait .. those are tusks ... how could they have such a sharp aura on their own ... ..??" Theo asked himself ..
but even so .. the three by his side .. heard what he said ...
the cold woman .. looked shocked to say the least ..
'Are his senses that sharp ...!?' she thought shocked ..
"Tusks mean ... elephant ... but this aura ... feels so ancient .. like a .. like a mammoth ..." Theo opened his eyes wide as he glanced at the cold lady ..
"Why .. have you caged this creature .. it doesn't seem hostile .. " Theo asked as he walked closer and loser to the cage ..
"It isn't hostile .. but it cannot handle its own power .. it's too powerful for it .. for an example ... it's a yin and the power it possesses is yang ... the two aren't compatible with each other .. " the lady said as she raised her hand .. and the next thing ..
an ice wall in dark blue rose up from the ground infront of Theo ... blocking him from moving forward ...
"Get back here .." the lady then said coldly ..
"So you caged .. a random creature on the way .. that you thought had power to repel the creature horde ... this is more like ... creating your own weapon ... out of a creature ... so tell me .. what the difference between you and the monsters that are going to attack your village .." Theo asked angrily ... as he glared at the lady ...
"Hmph ... boy ... this is not your home .. where you can talk to me however you like ... I'm not ..." before she could finish ..
an aura of brown erupted from Theo's body ... and went towards her .. sending her in the air and made her crash into the ground ..
Laura and Captain Rose looked at him with sweat pearls running down their temples ..
however before they could do anything ..
an icicle of dark blue .. flashed before their eyes and went flying at Theo .. holding a murderous aura ...
the latter sneered and stomped on the ground ... creating huge earth spikes that shattered the icicle .. ...
it didn't stop there though ..the spikes went on forward .. with waves of wind
thrashing at her ...
wind blades manifested in the air and continued with their wild approach causing a break space ripple ..
Laura and captain Rose staggered backwards and watched as the spikes neared Disciple 3 ...
but before the spikes could even touch her ... a wall made of dark blue ice materialised and made contact with the earth spikes attacks ..
cracks instantly enveloped the wall ...
most of the ice was falling apart and left huge holes in the wall ...
an icy blue aura erupted from behind the wall and immediately swept over the area and collided with the brown aura ...
"How is he so strong ..??" Laura watched with shock as she turned to look at the captain ...
the wind blades which were behind the previous attacks .. made their attack as well
.. eventually breaking the wall .. and revealed the ice cold lady from behind .. who stood with her back bent a little .. her white hair .. flowing into the air ...
her eyes glowed light blue ...
a lot of energy suddenly gathered up around her ... and soon ..
a ripple like a glass shattering exploded .. as an illusionary snow flake in dark blue appeared before her ..
it then expanded until it became as big as a tyre ...
the snow flake then moved to the top of her head and showered her with crystal rain that bathed her in blue light ...
Theo stood there seriously ...
and then suddenly ...
*Crackle!!!!!!!!*
*booom!!!!!*
a golden aura mixed with the brown aura and collided with the blue aura .. and shattered it ...
captain Rose suddenly opened her eyes wide .. and tried to run in the middle .. but a white hand caught her just before she ran ..
"What are you doing ..!!!?" she asked Laura who stood there with a frown on her face ..
"Those two powers are not something that you can handle ... and that guy won't win ... if he still has some sense inside of himself .. he should quit ... before he gets seriously injured ... Disciple 3 ... is different from other elders ... she got robbed of her powers in a battle ... but even so ... she still got half her power ... what makes everything worse is that ... her will carries her power ... the more her will is ... the more power from her past she will wield ... so .." however before she could finish ... captain rose yanked her hand from her tight grasp and looked at Laura with worry ..
but one could easily make out that .. she wasn't worried about her .. but rather about something else ...
"You don't understand ... the power he currently wields is even greater than what you could ever imagine .. he himself got robbed of his own power .. and he got robbed of all of his power .. not any less than that .. "
captain Rose gulped and looked at Theo ... "But what I'm afraid of is his element ... I don't really know what it is .. but he usually uses it as lightning ... " Laura then realised her mistake ..
she now noticed that .. her senses were blocked or rather she couldn't sense his power ..
it was like an invisible barrier was cast between the two of them ...
because she could easily sense Disciple 3's aura from where she stood ...
Disciple 3 ... dashed at Theo ... and held an ice Lance ...
she struck with it forward at Theo ... as her blue light rushed to the tip ..
Theo stood motionlessly looking at the Lance with contempt and disdain ...
he then suddenly raised his hand ...
a bone dagger ... appeared like burnt ashes gathering together ...
captain Rose's face paled ...
Laura noticed her expression and realised that their situation was dire ...
without anyone holding him back ... Theo slashed downwards .. and drew a golden arc that destroyed the Lance ...
as the arc neared Disciple 3 ... a beautiful white hand appeared and caught it in mid air ...
the hand .. clenched into a fist .. and shattered the arc into particles of gold light ...
"What is the meaning of this .. Disciple 3 ..." a cold feminine voice resounded in the cloud of smoke ...
and then ... in an instant .. the smoke cleared and revealed ... Disciple 3 .. gasping out of breath .. as another cold woman ... stood there emotionlessly looking at Disciple 3 ...
Theo on the other side .. remained unfazed ... as he drew back his power and unsummoned his dagger ...
"You were sent here on the orders of the leader and not even a day had passed but you have already fought with an outsider .. and now badly defeated ... " the woman sneered and chortled coldly ..
"And since you broke the law and went against the orders of the leader .. you must be punished ... you will be feeding the Blood Mammoth ... for a month ... you will not participate in the monster horde event ... understood ..!!" the woman said ...
Disciple 3 ... looked at the woman and frowned deeply ... "Just because you're now highly respected by the leader does not mean ... you get to order me around ... you're not him ... remember your place ... if it weren't for me getting injured in battle you wouldn't have gotten that position of yours ..." the woman seemed enraged as she moved like lightning and grabbed Disciple 3 by the throat ..
"Disciple ... let go ... " ... a man with white hair .. said as he caught the woman's wrist ...
the woman suddenly trembled and immediately let go ..
"Elder Brother ..." the woman said softly .. in fear ...
Disciple 3 ... looked away and walked away ...
but before she could get far ... the man caught up with her and asked .. "Disciple ... what happened here ... weren't you supposed to show the two the Blood Mammoth ... the rest was between you and him ..." the man inquired with a soft voice ...
Disciple 3 .. said nothing and just walked away as blood trickled from her shoulder ...
