Chapter 146: Only one step away (1/2)
”Who dared to kill my children!”
Somewhere in the capital, a furious roar resounded. A young man stood up in rage. His dark eyes were cold and his face trembled with rage. His red hair and handsome face gave him a devilish look. He was tall, wearing a white shirt, trousers and cowboy boots. But at this moment his face was red in fury.
However, after the initial outburst, he took a breath and closed his eyes, when he opened them again, all the rage and fury had vanished, replaced with calm and indifference. He turned around and looked at the man who was standing respectfully, not too far away.
”Go, find out who killed my children,” he said in a soft voice, no previous anger remaining, ”no one could escape after killing my babies,” but there was a certain edge in his voice, a kind of chill we feel in the icy nights of December.
The servant bowed respectfully and left without speaking anything.
Then the red-haired turned towards the platform not far away from him, where lay a half meter long worm at the centre of the formation, struggling, twisting and turning, but to no avail.
The man grinned when he looked at the worm. ”So what if I can't control you right now? I can still use your strength. I'm the one who summoned you, and I am the one whose command you will listen to. Maybe not now, but when my strength increases after devouring all those soul fragments you will be mine to control, HAHAHA.”

After escaping from the precious place Kadyn arrived in another location. It was even more deserted than the last one. Amidst the trees and bushes. Kadyn exchanged a glance with the lady beside him and shrugged. Then he waved his hand and the shop appeared in front of them.
At first, it looked exactly like a toy house, but then it started to enlarge. In just a blink there was an entire shop standing in front of them. Tall and mysterious.
”Let's go,” Kadyn said and strolled through the gate of the shop. Cecelia looked at the large shop with a serious expression and then rushed behind him.
As soon as they entered, everyone greeted them. After a short catch-up with everyone Kadyn excused himself and went into the shop where he entered his personal meditation room.
”Here I come, Spell Casters,” Kadyn grinned from ear to ear when he thought about becoming Rank 1 mage. He had already awakened all the stars in the journey previously.
Now, he just needed to break the wall in front of him, and he will be one of the strong, maybe not one of the strong as the standard of the strong had increased when they arrived in the capital. Rank 1 could be considered an average strength for someone of his age, but if someone knew that he didn't take even a year to reach this stage they would definitely shake to the core.
”Let's start—” he closed his eyes and started to merge the glittering, burning, and twisting, and all kinds of stars — which were formed due to a combination of other elements.
As he was trying to break through a small bird was sitting on the tree branch, its small head buried into its white feathers.
But at this moment it lifted its tiny head and looked in the direction of the meditation room, and then again packed its head into its feathery chest, leaving an almost inaudible murmur. ”Too weak. Why am I wasting my time with this guy? If not for that mysterious and powerful vibe coming from him… if I had my complete strength I would have been able to find the source of this shop and whoever is behind it… sigh...”
——
It was 4 o'clock in the morning when a burst of laughter came from the meditation room. The laughter resounded in the entire shop due to the silence, disturbing everyone, as they rushed out of the house and gathered in front of the shop, looking at each other in confusion.
Five minutes later Kadyn walked out of the shop. When he found everyone standing in front of the shop, he scratched his head in embarrassment, apologising. ”I am sorry for disturbing everyone. I was too excited to control myself after breaking through.”
”You are Spell Caster now?'' Everyone looked at him with a pleasant surprise. But they weren't too shocked by the revelation. After all, Elora had since long broken through. She just needed to build a rune before entering the ranks of Spell Casters. Even Khrom was about to break through after his problem was solved when he refined the Mermaid Pearl.
