Chapter 83 - Troublesome Bunch!! (1/2)
.........
Soon Kayn, Athena, and Ariel arrived in a luxurious room filled with beautiful furniture, painting, and floors. They looked around and saw a group of people in the room who were wearing the Heavenly Phoenix clan symbols on their clothing. They were obviously clan elders and the King was also present himself. There were also young members of the clan present as well. They were here to watch the fights and support their clan.
The Elders saw the space distort in a certain area and grew cautious. They had known that many times before that there had been several attempts on the King's life. The king and the elders readied themselves for a fight until the figures revealed themselves. Once they saw the three figures, they all sighed in relief and relaxed. This wasn't the same for a certain elder and a certain young man standing near him, the two were elder Mars and his eldest son Marshal Mars!
”My dear daughter has returned from her training session for this great event for our family. If we win this, then we'll own another city and we'll get more rich, haha! There are also more rewards for our victory but that's for a later time.” The King spoke once he saw his daughter; he could even feel that his daughter was much stronger from the last time, like much stronger!
”Yes, father, I've trained hard! When does the tournament start?” Athena asked curiously.
”It will start in 20 minutes, I am very relieved to see that you've arrived on time or you may have been disqualified.” The king was indeed worried but she returned right on time. ”You'll have to go down below, if you look out this window, you can see the arena and many other clans all around.” The king said.
”Okay, I'll head out and prepare.” Athena nodded. She could see that the window could be lifted with a push of a buŧŧon. This room was a special room for King class clans such as her clan.
”Humph, you would have arrived much earlier if this bodyguard did his job right instead of slacking off!” Mars took this time to ridicule Kayn, he glared at Kayn with hatred and disdain. His eldest son Marshall also looked at Kayn with hate. He had come back about a week ago and saw his brother's condition and was very angry.
”Elder, it's none of your business whether I made it back or not. The only thing that matters is that I'm here to fight!” Athena wasn't stupid, how could she not know that he was starting something because of his son's condition?
”I am your elder, How dare you speak to me like that!?” Mars couldn't believe she dared to speak to him, a supreme elder like that.
”Mars, not here, this is an important moment for us, so stop arguing!” The king suddenly spoke, he didn't like disrespect but this was her moment to shine and right now, she was the star of the show.
”Tsk!” Mars stared coldly at Kayn, he couldn't blame Athena or the King. The way Athena talked to him just now must be because of this damn medicine boy! Strangely, he hadn't heard from the black cloak man at all these days, he had suddenly just disappeared out of nowhere.
”Father, I will dismiss myself and head to the arena.” Athena bowed and looked at both Kayn and Ariel. They both nodded and turned to walk away.
”Wait, I'm also here to represent the clan, so I'll be coming with you!” Suddenly, an overbearing and arrogant voice spoke up. The person who spoke was Mars' eldest son, Marshal. He wore fiery red battle robes, he had black hair and blue eyes. His face was very handsome that many girls would definitely drool over it.
”Humph, whatever, don't cause any trouble or else!” Athena's voice was gentle but it had a harsh warning behind it.
”Little sister Athena, I would never cause trouble for you!” Marshal smiled and walked over to Athena's side. There was a hint of disgust in Ariel's eyes when she saw this act, she had seen it so many times, how could she not know what he wanted? Marshal glanced at Kayn, he really wanted to teach this fool a lesson, how dare you stand next to my Athena, you damn medicine boy!
Soon, they walked out of the room and were heading towards the battle area. Three people would represent each clan, the other member of their clan had already left to the battle area. Once they arrived, they saw many people of their age from several different clans. Kayn saw some familiar clans from that time as well, such as the Cryo Phoenix clan and the Crow clan. Once they saw Athena and Kayn, their expression turned dark. This was definitely so for Crowell, he recalled his elder being killed in the most inhumane way by Kayn and he started exuding killing intent.
”Crowell, what is wrong, are you okay?” A friend of Crowell named Rai asked; he was from the Raven Clan and his clan was one of the ultimate allies of the Crow clan!
”That bastard over there wearing black, white and red, he is the bodyguard I was talking about!” Crowell gnashed his teeth while looking at Kayn. He hated him to the bone! Rai looked in the direction where Crowell was looking and saw Kayn walking with the princess and Ariel, oh and that annoying Marshall.
”Hmm, so that the bodyguard everyone's talking about. Hmph, he doesn't look like anything special!” Rai coldly snorted seeing Kayn, he was sure that the elders from his clan could kill this trash bodyguard with ease.
”Rai, don't underestimate him, in fact, I think he does it on purpose! The guy likes to play sheep but he is really a monster in disguise.” Crowell wasn't stupid enough to underestimate Kayn ever again. This guy had killed his favorite elder and even killed the mysterious man who came with the lion clan's young master.
”Ah, whatever!” Rai shrugged his shoulders but still believed that Kayn was nothing in his eye. He was sure he couldn't beat Kayn but he believed his clan could.
Kayn could easily feel the killing intent coming from Crowell but he still ignored him like air. This made Crowell so mad that he wanted to rush to kill Kayn immediately but he knew he wasn't a match and would only die or get badly hurt.
