When aran looked at Elissa with shock, he asked himself the same question repeatedly. ' What should I do now? '
He stared at Elissa without blinking. As she was about to take a step towards him, Aran's reflexes kicked in and he immediately used the soul suppression technique on her to suppress her soul and stopped her from moving forward. Without a second thought, he started to shift his mana to activate the rapid blood technique!
When Elissa saw aran and his cat, she decided to directly ask him for an explanation. As she took her first step towards aran, suddenly she started to feel something restraining her body. She didn't know what that was but she felt like its dangerous. So she instantly tried to take her sword but soon she got disappointed realising that she had left her storage rings outside. And before she could figure something out, aran immediately charged at her.
Aran activated his rapid blood technique and increase his strength as much as he can. Before Elissa could move her body, he instantly charged at her and punched Elissa in her face, with full force. The punch was so strong, Elissa instantly bounced back and her body hit the door before falling and she instantly blacked out.
Looking at that Arrax started to wonder what just happened and Aran was also in confusion about what he had just done. But this wasn't the time to worry about what happened, so he signalled arrax to focus on the book.
When he realised what had he just done, his mind got filled with dozens of emotions and his whole body started shaking. Without knowing what to do, he started to walk around the chamber thinking about a plan.
"It's done, hey boy, it's done. Are you listening? Hey! "
Arrax was telling aran that the writing was done but aran was so into his thoughts that he couldn't even hear arrax.
As aran was walking around, lost in his thoughts, he suddenly felt a human's hand on his shoulder and as he turned around, he was shocked once more. Because a stranger was standing there. As aran was about to lose his mind at all that was happening, the stranger slapped his face!
That slap brought aran back to reality. And he asked
" What? "
"It's done! "
The stranger said, pointing the book on the floor. That's when aran realised, it was arrax who had transformed into a human. Aran continued to stare at the book and arrax for a moment and suddenly a thought came into his mind!
Aran immediately dismissed his book's summoning and made the book disappear. He just ignored arrax who was beside him and walked towards the other book on the floor. He took that book from the floor and slowly placed it back where it was. After that, he came back to arrax and asked with a serious face,
" Can you teleport a human? "
" What? "
" I asked you if you can teleport a human!"
" Not you. I need you on the other side to send me the signal. But if it's someone else, I sure can. "
" Great, so listen to me carefully! " Aran said and explained his plan to arrax.
When arrax heard Aran's explanation, he accepted the plan and immediately transformed into Elissa.
After making sure that arrax's transformation is perfect, aran walked towards the door and moved elissa out of the door. Following that, Arrax left his pen there and walked out.
***
As arrax, in the form of Elissa, got out and passed through the first room, he went to the second room where the guards were waiting. As they saw Elissa, they checked her once again as a formality. After that, they gave back her rings.
Arrax took the rings and walked away from there immediately. He headed straight towards the bench which was behind the memorial building.
As he got there, he left Elissa's rings there on the bench. By then aran had drawn the formation again and sent the signal. Arrax followed that signal to teleport back into the memorial chamber.
As arrax got back, aran looked at him and tilted his head and left that chamber immediately. Aran also went through the checking and got his rings back.
After leaving the memorial, he also headed straight to the bench behind the memorial building and drew the formation again. Arrax again used that signal to teleport there. But this time he also carried Elissa, who was unconscious in the chamber.
***
As arrax teleported to behind the memorial, holding Elissa, aran took the sedative potion from arrax and said
" Take care of the surveillance crew. I will take care of her! "
After saying that, he took out his horse from his ring and tethered it to the tree in there. And then, he stored Elissa in his living storage ring. After that, both of them left that place.
***
After leaving arrax, aran headed towards the mansion. As he got there, he immediately went to Elissa's residence. He opened her residence door using the key he got from her ring and went to her room, which she had shown him the last time they met.
Then aran took Elissa out of the ring and slowly placed her on the bed. After that, he took out the sedative potion and poured it into her mouth to make sure that she doesn't get up quickly. Aran also poured a high-ranked healing potion into her mouth to heal the punching wound on her nose. After putting her rings back on her fingers, he slowly left that place as if nothing happened.
***
As for arrax, he changed his form once again into one of the observers who had left to take care of the mana flow-controlling device.
At first, he told the guard that he left something in the memorial surveilling room and went back to the room on top of the memorial building. As he got there, he saw the two observers were unconscious.
The sedative he used was very strong and it would have taken more than a day for them to wake up from that. But if they had stayed like that then it would have been suspicious. So as arrax got there, he took out the anti-sedative potion from his pocket and poured it into the mouth of both observers.
After that, he left from there and were to the palace surveillance room. He also poured the portion into the member's mouths there and left.
After nearly five minutes, all four of the observers woke up and started to wonder what just happened. It seemed as if they were asleep. But Instead of thinking about that, they focused on the monitoring devices. Since others finding out that they were sleeping on duty time won't be good, they decided not to talk about that again.
After finishing their jobs, both aran and arrax met again at the bench behind the memorial building.
After getting there, Aran stored his horse back into his ring and arrax turned back into the cat. As they made sure that everything had been completed, arrax got on aran's shoulder and both of them left for the arena to see the tournament.
****
When aran arrived back at the arena, one of the three final battles had already ended. Everyone seemed excited about the next battle. Looking at that, aran walked towards his teammates.
As he got there, he sat down beside alexia where he was sitting before leaving. Looking at aran, alexia asked
" So, what happened to your angles? "
" Ohh, I thought it would be perfect but it wasn't! " Aran replied.
" Whatever, that's fine. Forget it. Do you know if the next contestants, who will fight, were the winners of the tournament last year? " Alexia asked.
" Really? "
" Yes. It was an amazing fight the last time. I'm sure this time it will more amazing! "
"Let's see about that, " aran said and continued to watch the tournament.
***
Soon the battle started and like Alexia said it was amazing. It seemed like the arena was going to get destroyed by their battle. It would have been destroyed if the masters of the tournament committee weren't there to take care of it.
Looking at the fighters performing different sword techniques, aran thought one day he will get so strong that, they all will look like nothing to him.
After two hours of intense fighting, the final battles finally ended with the sword god academy winning first place.
Soon after that, they also distributed the awards to the top winners of the tournament. Since their tournament was transmitting worldwide, they didn't want people from other cities to wait a whole day just to see the winners accepting their awards.
While distributing the awards, All the remaining teammates of the Pheonix academy, climbed the stage to accept the award for third place.
After that, the top hundred participants also got thousands of spirit stones as a reward for their achievements. Soon after the award ceremony ended, everyone left the arena for the lunch.
After lunch, since it was their last day in the tournament, the Pheonix team decided to look around the city. So they all went to the city and visited different places.
On that night, they went to the finest diner in the city and had their dinner.
After all the eating and drinking, it was almost midnight, when they returned to their residence.
