Shoujo Grand Summoning Chapter 226: Threat countered! The ace in the hole.

Brought yo you by an unknown donator who hadn't replied to my email.

Aleister's indifferent att.i.tude when talking about people Wu Yan cared drained him of all his patience. Wu Yan could no longer hold back his anger and killing intention.

Blood-red aura started fuming around him as he lifted his head to reveal a pair of golden eyes like that of a savage beast.

He flipped his hands and a longbow, black as night with its design resembling wings appeared in his hands with a flash of light, starlight glittered in the darkness of the bow.

Nock

The moment he made the gesture to nock, light gathered towards the bow like bees to honey. The light became concentrated and turned into a soft silvery color which reminded one of the lights of the night sky.

The surrounding had its colors drained and Aiwa.s.s hold over this place was torn apart by the sheer aura the elegant yet deadly longbow emitted.

Aleister's unchanging expression finally had some form of change for once. It was a very slight change but it spoke volume for one who hadn't shown any sort of emotions for years.

Aiwa.s.s still remains unseen but a faint figure could be observed behind Aleister's culture tank, the aura there seems to be very concentrated.

Starlight reminiscent of the Milky Way gathered at the longbow and as more starlight got sucked in, a silver arrow of the most radiant order appeared, nocked and ready to fire.

An ominous sensation hit Aleister.

Starlight danced around Meteor Shower and the silver arrow. It gave the bow and arrow a comet-like appearance, both powerful and beautiful.

The golden eyes hidden by his bangs stared right down Aleister's barrel.

”Just you try, Aleister!”

Wu Yan dared Aleister to do as he said, issue warrants of arrest.

Aleister is a very decisive man, if Wu Yan hadn't pulled out a bow on him, he would have no doubt made Mikoto a wanted criminal and his plan would progress with the elimination of Wu Yan, and the retrieval of the sisters.

But, he's hesitating whether or not that is the right move. He looked at the nocked arrow and the signs of death written all over it. The table had been turned on him. He was going to strong-arm him into submission but it appears he is now the one being coerced, what's more, it appears that he might really have to step back.

How many years had it been since he last felt death's presence this close to him? To think there would be a day where he is threatened by another individual…

'You better think this through carefully…'

While Aleister is considering his next move, Aiwa.s.s spoke to him telepathically, the voice manifesting itself within his head.

Aleister had a steely gaze as he mentally talked with Aiwa.s.s.

”Could it be that you have no confidence of blocking that attack as well?”

Aiwa.s.s stayed silent for a bit as if he's thinking before replying.

”I can take that attack but I would suffer some damage as a result.”

Aleister's heart shook, he didn't say anything but Aiwa.s.s knew that beneath his calm expression he had big emotional turmoils. Aiwa.s.s continued.

”That bow is very dangerous. It is about as dangerous as the sword that is the bane of angels!”

”Moreover, that weird protection he has on him is something I can't do anything about. If he did attack, I expected minor injuries to result but I can't guarantee anything on your part!”

Aleister went deathly silent. Wu Yan got even madder when he saw that Aleister wasn't going to say anything. He drew his longbow and pulled the strings to its maximum capacity.

Observing Wu Yan's action and feeling that death drew nearer, Aleister broke the silence.

”Don't make me…”
