IMPORTANT AUTHOR NOTICE: The 4th Spell of the God Grimoire has been altered due to future story plot points. Thanks for understanding! More on the change in the next chapter.
***
Tyr was split apart right now. He wanted to go inside and save his friends, but what if he couldn't do it without this girl's pill?
The argument she was making didn't seem absurd at this moment, especially considering the fact that she even knew who Noa was somehow.
It could have been some sort of trap, but why would this random girl know to trap him anyway?
So many things didn't make sense on thier own, and only made sense if the girl was telling the truth about her ability to see into the future.
Tyr couldn't help but feel his intuition tell him to trust the girl.
"Tsk... fine! But know that no diseases work on me. If you somehow fuck me over, don't think I'll forgive you just because you're a girl."
"That's fine..." The girl said in a soft manner, sitting on her knees.
Tyr swiped the pill off of her palm and quickly swallowed it.
Almost instantly, he felt an excruciating pain blast his core.
His face tensed, veins poking out of his forehead.
His eyes slowly moved to look at the girl, who had a small and innocent smile on her face.
"You... lied..." Tyr barely managed to utter, "What... is this?"
"I didn't lie." The girl stood up, putting a black hood over her head, "That pill is a rare one. It doesn't hold much cultivatable Aura, but it's a type that automatically is absorbed into your core without the need to cultivate. That way... you can unlock your... Spell, is it called?" She smirked cheekily after saying this.
Tyr's eyes expanded with shock, "How the hell do you know that? I haven't even told Hanzo or Malon about my Spells..."
The girl turned, "I told you, didn't I? I can see things..." She jumped off of the roof, disappearing into the night.
"What... the hell..." Tyr exclaimed, his vision turning blurrier and blurrier.
Finally, everything turned pitch black all of a sudden...
A vision of his core appeared in this darkness.
The Aura from the pill entered his Aura Core, immediately strengthening it.
As soon as the first layer formed, the Aura that GG had given him to balance his stats immediately flowed into his core, strengthing it more and more in the span of a few seconds.
All he needed was that little foundation wall, and now his Aura did the rest of the work for him.
[Congradulations! You have broken through into the Novice Rank!]
[Congradulations! You have broken through into the Apprentice Rank!]
[Congradulations! You have broken through into the Adept Rank!]
Finally, Tyr opened his eyes. All of the pain and blurriness from before had disappeared.
He was still the same strength as before, as GG had leveled him up to fit the amount of Aura he was holding. Now, his title finally matched his strength: Adept Rank.
There was also one other change...
[You have met the requirements to unlock your sixth Spell!]
[You have unlocked the Spell: Reverse]
[Description: Ability to copy and attack back with any Aura ability.]
[Spell Criteria: You must absorb the damage of any Aura ability completely before being able to copy it. You must also meet the Aura stat needed to use the spell: your Aura stat must at least be half of the original ability user's.]
[The ability you Reverse can be used a total of three times in the duration of 10 minutes.]
Tyr furrowed his eyebrows as he read this description, 'Thats strong...' His mind immediately thought of how to use its spell criteria to his advantage.
'Fully absorb the damage huh... I think I have the perfect idea for that.'
A powerful energy captured his attention at that moment.
He looked into the sky, opposite the auction house.
'Killing intent?' He thought with widened eyes of shock. The energy was disastrous, clearly fueled with malice.
As time passed, it became stronger and hit you like a brick.
'Someone strong is coming. I can't waste time her--' Tyr turned toward the auction house, but as he did, something blitzed past him in the sky.
The afterblow of this object propelled him forward, nearly causing him to stumble off of the roof.
His eyes rapidly looked above the auction house, where a floating figure stood motionlessly.
Without a second more delay, the figure coiled his fist back and zoomed into the building. From the sound of it, he obliterated the roof and penetrated into the main hall.
Tyr had already left the roof by now, arriving back at the entrance of the auction house where hundreds of people were still lining up to escape.
*A minute prior*
*Seeeu*
*Seeeeeuu*
*Seeeu*
Several arrows flew across the theater, obliterating multiple guards at once in a scene of bloody gore.
"Tsk..." Hanzo exclaimed, pulling his bowstring back as he looked around.
"They keep coming like ants..."
*Seeeeeu*
*Seeeeu*
Malon also seemed irritated, "They aren't that strong, but in numbers, even ants can topple elephants. This is insane."
He blocked attacks coming in from multiple knights at once using his giant shield, blasting them away with force.
Hanzo's eyes darted to the entrance of the theater, "But... even ants have a limit." He noticed that there didn't look to be any more reinforcements.
"This is the last wave of em... after that, I'll get Noa. You block that idiot's mouth beam or whatever." He said to Malon as the two continued to fight.
Goghfrey on the other hand stood at the edge of the soliders, clenching bost fists as he screamed at the two inside the circle.
"You do not realize the mistake you have made, attempting to fight against a Lord!" He said, blabbering continuously.
Hanzo's viper-like eyes landed on him for a split second, throwing the angered fool off guard slightly as he felt a small chill climb up his back.
"Don't overcompensate... this has nothing to do with your Lordship. We are simply criminals who want to free a slave... it doesn't have anything to do with you." Hanzo exclaimed in a serious tone.
He focused back on the fight, 'If we were to admit to going against his Lordship... it would most likely mean the very end of our lives at that very moment. Going against his Lordship is like going against the laws of the empire... and therefore going against the empire itself.'
*Seeeeeeu*
*Seeeeeu*
'Thats also why we can't afford the Supreme Guard to show up. His only job is to protect his Lord. All offenses against him count as an offense against hierarchal Lordship within this empire.'
*Seeeeu*
*Seeeeeu*
A duo of blue and red arrows flew out this time.
*BOOM*
Hanzo lowered his bow. All of the enemies on his side had been cleared out. He had also focused on beating some of the soldiers that Malon was fighting.
He turned to see Malon finish off the final couple.
Malon also turned as he did this, the two looking at each other and nodding.
Malon's head darted toward Goghfrey--his shield slamming down from above before the Lord.
Hanzos eyes on the other hand locked onto Noa.
A large explosion sounded from above out of nowhere.
Right before Hanzo moved even an inch, a disastrous tsunami crashed into the building--crushing everyone and forcing them to stay frozen in place under the immense weight.
Except... this was no tsunami, but rather the horrifying killing intent of a Supreme Guard...
