Chereads / The Hidden Noble / Chapter 39 - Regret of the fallen

Chapter 39 - Regret of the fallen

[AHAHHAHAHAHAH]

Excitement to no ends. If he was not stagnated by the grand mage, Alden would have already burst with evil laughter. Laughter that's mixed with a shadow form, would surely portrays him as true evil. Would it not?

Suddenly a burst of uncontrollable power of a Grand mage unleashed itself all around the area near east gate side of Summer City. Those who live their entire life around the area of the east have now been fully immersed inside an Aura of a Grand mage. The Aura has detonated countless people to scream with distress.

This action snapped Alden from his celebrations. Forced to act quick before the mage starts his chant.

{Does host wish to convert?}

[Take it all] he resolved.

{Affirmed command}

DING!

{CONSUMTION COMENCING}

Alden's body who knows locked in some sort of power beyond the common norm is starting to distort and becoming unstable. With a spontaneous response, the Grand mage aura that's surrounded the humanoid shadow stilled, and on Alden chest a strange red mixed with darkest black began to make a strange vacuum sound. With wind carrying debris and house pieces initiated by the Grand mage, none had noticed the air around the humanoid shadow is filling with strange power. Power that the Grand mage had felt before getting stronger and stronger. This strange suction force located in the middle of his chest. started to slowly take the Aura around the Humanoid shadow. This phenomenon is enlarging at rapid pace, reality itself is being pulled in. If one looked closely, they would be able to see that this suction force resembles a black hole. A black hole that does not exist in this world.

*ZZOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW*

The sound of vacuum began to intensify, the strange action has finally been noticed by Grand Mage Sir Dandelion.

"WHAT!" he shouts, disbelief to what his witnessing

[That]

[That is the energy I have sense inside that creature... Wait]

[The strange energy is not from the creature but….]

"you" he spoke allowed.

Alden heard this gesture from the enemy, in all honesty he himself did not know what is happening either. All he felt is the pressure from the Grand mage is failing to restraint him. not paying attention to the Grand mage anymore.

*SIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH*

He released a type of white smoke from his mouth, adjusting his shoulder. One foot off the deep end of the roof and the other, the humanoid shadow is freed. And with this action. The humanoid shadow looked back to the Grand mage and thought

[System, speed it up]

DING

{Affirmed command}

{Enhancing}

*BOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM* the house shook, threatening to collapse. And inside the humanoid chest the suction force enlarged, became big enough to cover his chest in less than a second.

*ZEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWW* a thirst for water traveling through the desert, the suction force greedily pulling in all the Aura around the vicinity.

Alden grinned

[know this, is what I call power]

And with this thought the humanoid shadow, narrowed his eyes towards the Grand mage who noticed his actions. the obvious truth has been revealed, all this time he thought that the reason Princess Mable necklace have been activated is due to this creature that's besides her. Never in his wildest dreams did he thought a human who is not even at his level of power would do such a thing. Adding the fact, he now strongly believe the one who used that strange energy to summon him here, is for sure the humanoid shadow.

Then sudden notice, the Sir Dandelion felt his Aura that was used to control the humanoid shadow is being taken in by the hole rested on the humanoid shadow chest. Dread filled his face, he did not know what is happening nor does he have the time to study the strange phenomena, all he knows now, is to put a stop to this.

Sir Dandelion stilled his himself ready to act.

*SEEEHHHHHHHHHHHH* *MURMER* *MURMER* *MURM-*

Stopping midway from casting, the grand mage paused, eyes widen at what is happening right front him. A snake like white lightening has just manifest around the humanoid shadow. The snake looks bigger than the previous one that hit Princess Mable. Much bigger in size and thickness. A blinding light illuminating the roof of the area.

Up above the humanoid shadow, there stood the snake lightening facing the grand mage. A quick electrical discharge sound suddenly started

*PAHHHHHHHHHHHHH* A ziller of sound of lightening

[Oh no]

Retracting a face of disbelief, Sir Dandelion felt danger. Aiming straight at him, traveling at speed of light. Making its way toward the stupor Dandelion, heading towards his head,

*PHEWWWWWWWWWW*

The grand Mage dodged with his upper body, bending in strange position as if he was stretching, not believing the capacity of the power the humanoid shadow has just released. He turned around to watch the lightening heading towards the defence of the east gate.

*BOOOOMMMMMM*

A chunk of wall of the east gate has been hit, like an effect of a bomb detonating, the east gate wall made of rocks and stones, heavy enough to crush a person into a meat paste fell to the ground. Dust flew everywhere. This impactable display garnered the alarm of all the guards stationed near the east Grate, Sounds of soldiers and city Guard rushing away from the destroyed gate.

The east side of Summer city become alive, filled with cry of tears and fear. People of the east gate have all rushed away towards the castle side of Summer city. two powerhouse are engaging in a dual inside Summer city. Having no choice but to flee is the only options to those weak. All around took their leave.

Watching this surprised attack. Sir Dandelion turns back to the humanoid shadow and look at him cautiously. Wondering how someone so weak could garner such powerful spell.

[wait]

[The man did not chant, how can he use spells powerful enough without chanting]

[This person is strange]

[he is equipped with things I do not understand]

[I have to recuse her highness and flee]

No time to think anymore Sir Dandelion began to ready to caste, put a stop to this madness.

[But first, I need to finish that creature.] he resolved and spoke

"Undoubtedly I have underestimated you" he looks towards the humanoid shadow,

"However, do not think just that display would make me, A Grand mage surrender"
