Chapter 509 Revenge

"My clan members, listen to me and listen well,"

"We did not kill Lahokse, and what you saw was just a lie fabricated by this woman, whom we once saw as our clan's beloved daughter,"

"It was she who killed her father, all for the family heirloom so she could use it to return to her origin realm, never to return, and as every father, Lahokse did not want to be separated from his only daughter,"

"But she refused to respect his demands, and when he did not agree, she killed him in cold blood and ran away with the family heirloom, only to discover the artifact she held was not complete, so she returned with outsider help to complete her desire,"

"We started a power struggle for the clan patriarch position, only to gain the support from the clans of the surrounding islands because we did not know what sort of strength the unknown individual and the power backing him wielded,"

"The unknown individual wanted to enter the ancestral realm, and while invaluable to us, we were willing to give it to him, but we can not allow the traitor who killed our beloved child to leave unpunished," The scarred face elder named Salarth said making the gathered crowed erupt into whispers.

"I understand you have your doubts, and they will be cleared in due time, but for now, we need to deal with this traitor," Kavoc said before letting his aura wash over the surroundings, making the agitated crowd turn silent under the dreadful pressure.

Many of the gathered elves believed the elders' words and an equal number harbored doubts, but in the end, it did not matter what anyone believed because who could question the authority of the two elemental Rulers.

Alex knew the elders were lying and could see that they were informing him of their desire to kill Zahra and agreeing to let him enter the ancestral realm in exchange for his corporation.

It was clear to the two clan elders that Alex was an outsider, his only goal being to enter the ancestral realm, and with his unknown means clear to them, they were willing to give him what he wanted and not antagonize him anymore.

However, Alex was also well aware that he posed a great threat no matter where his allegiance lay, and knowing that the two old monsters would never put themselves in the open, knowing he could very well be working with Zahra or outright wanted to kill them and could easily take the opportunity to do so.

So Alex expected countermeasures in place in case he decided to attack, and it could be anything from a quick escape to a skilled assassin lying in wait to take his head off.

But too bad for them, Alex had a bag full of cheats that he had no problem wasting because he would not be able to use a single one of them inside the ancestral realm.

However, whether it was their good luck or bad luck, Alex had no intention of killing them from the start, and his goal was simply to save Zahra while repaying some damage he suffered at their hand. Now, having witnessed the tragedy she had endured, he was even more motivated to ensure her safety.

'Time to play the hero,' Alex thought as he used one of the protection scrolls, and moments later, he was cloaked in a protective skin, capable of brushing off even attacks inside an elemental Domain.

Alex took out another scroll with a spell named 'Glacial Bastille,' a spell of peak seventh rank capable of freezing anything inorganic in the surrounding thousand meters, a perfect skill to imprison thousands of individuals without harming a single one.

Alex activated the scroll, but because he saw a wide smile spread across the face of Zahra as her entire body began to get cloaked in ashen gray runes that cloaked her pale white skin in its entirety.

"THIS IS FOR MY FATHER," Zahra roared as the runes covering her body pulsed to life with a blinding ashen intensity that spread like ominous light through the surroundings and faded the very color of everything.

In a world that appeared to be devoid of color, all Alex heard were panicked roars, and the very next moment, he felt a bone-chilling dread run through his being as his mind made him want to run away without a second thought.

The feeling was shared by all those present, as their voice ran dry, their body frozen in fear, and while Alex felt the threat, it was only because of his refined instincts, but his thinking was not really affected by it, nor was his body frozen by fear.

Alex knew at the back of his mind that he had an eight-rank barrier protecting him and an early eight-rank spell ready to be unleashed that would freeze everything not organic around him, including the space and the void, so he was the safest individual present in the city.

But the question that bothered him was what Zahra did, which had frozen even the two elemental Rulers like scared pigeons before a cat who was ready to snap their necks.

Alex could see the dread-filled eyes of the two clan elders who stood nearest to Zahra, and seeing the ashen light bask them, he could notice their skin turning less lively with wrinkles forming, cheekbones sticking out, their muscular bodies visibly shrinking, a clear sign they were losing their vitality.

It stood up like a sore thumb, and with a nearer look, Alex also saw that Zahra's face was becoming bony and malnourished, but compared to the elders, it was very slow.

Alex was quick to realize what fate awaited the hundred of the gathered citizens because he was almost certain that the ashen energy was not target-locked, but the sudden realization that the Glacial Bastille scroll was about to be activated made him sign in relief.

Alex was also quick to realize that he might have ruined Zahra's sacrifice for her revenge because if the ice successfully froze the ashen energy, it would, in turn, save everyone, including the two bastards for whom everyone else was going to lose their lives.

The three-second activation period ended quickly before the scroll pulsed to life and burnt into ash, leaving behind a unique, complicated magic rune on Alex's palm that pulsed with blinding radiance.

Wherever the light passed, everything from air to land was frozen solid in bone-white ice, and seconds later, only Alex had a few feet of free space surrounding him inside a massive thousand-meter block of ice.

'Zahra had sacrificed her life to avenge her father and kill those two, and having ruined it, I can not just walk away without at least ending their life,' Alex thought, feeling some complicated emotions at the abrupt turn of events.

But ignoring that, Alex raised his hand with the rune and began to move toward the direction of the trio, the dense expanse of ice vanishing to create the same zone of a few meters for him as one whose mana was used to invoke the skill.

'Now, this is unexpected,' Alex thought, seeing the astonishing sight that welcomed him.

Alex anticipated everything to be frozen, seeing how the ice easily froze the ashen energy and instantly erased its effects, but fifty meters of the area around Zahra had no ice.

The two elders were now mere husks, their bodies devoid of vitality, and their skin clung tightly to their bones, giving them a skeletal appearance.

Their eyes were sunken deep into their sockets, void of any light or life, as their figures, once full of life and power, now appeared as hollow remnants of their former selves.

Zahra was no in no better condition as her eyes were barely open, a smile spread across her face that showed a parturient husk at the verge of death, and not the ethereal beauty.

Zahra looked at Alex before her eyes closed, her head dropped, and the pulsing runes covering her body began to dim and vanish as she began toward the ground.

Alex was quick to react and caught her in a princess carry, with his senses invading her body to feel any pulse, and while very dim and dying, he could feel life still clinging to her body.

Alex used the consumable teleportation ring to teleport to his safe area, the effects of the Glacial bastille not affecting him because he was a user, but the moment he vanished, the ice began to disintegrate, turning into the base form of law that game its form.

In less than sixty seconds, the elves had experienced one of the worst days of their lives. At one point, they felt nearer to death than ever before, and a mere moment later, they were frozen in place, unable to move to feel the cold.

Now that they were freed from what seemed like a nightmare, they were going to see their two elders, the once mighty figures now turned to husks of skin and bones who would draw their last breaths before their very eyes.
