NOVPUB"There you go" from the sky above Leon, a bag came flying down and Leon caught it with both arms.
Leon then proceeded to look inside of it before saying "Nice"
"Our end of the bargain has been completed, but by no means should anyone know about it, got that?" Damien looked down at Leon and said.
They had just killed the marquee of the dalriss family. This was a big deal that could see the royalty turn on them, it had to be kept under wraps.
"You have my word, i will leave today" Leon smirked and hopped on the back of his kaga puppet.
"Good," Damien nodded.
When Leon came to him with a plan to not only stop the sorcerer but rescue him from the schemes of thw royalty Damien was a bit sceptical. Leon was but a newly promoted level 2 warlock at the time, but he really had no choice.
It was a leap of fate.
"Wait a minute, before you go. I’ll give you one piece of info." Leon stopped Damien and the rest.
" the royals will suffer heavy losses, its the best time to consolidate your power, join forces with the warlocks and split the kingdom in two" Leon said with a firm tone
The old monster of the golden Griffin clan had broken through, Leon had seen first hand what a level 5 mage could do. Abiet him going against just its soul. They stood no chance against him. Not by a long shot.
Leon’s words though, they made Damien and the rest frown. They were originally planning to use the chaos to either negotiate with the royals or remove their powers from the kingdom.
But Leon’s words.....it seemed like he knew something they didn’t.
"If we meet in future I hope its on better terms" Leon bowed once again and the kaga puppet slowly dashed out of the area. Leaving them hanging in the air.

"Heyaaaaa" a sharp beam of golden light came slicing downwards from a spear head rushing towards a man in golden robes.
The energy the light emitted seemed otherworldly, carrying a sort of glow that seemed to be able to tear through space itself.
"Hmp!!!" The man in golden robes shook his head and dodged the attack by moving to the left.
"A powerful weapon in the hands of the weak is just a waste" after dodging the man commented at the poor usage of the spear.
It was indeed a powerful weapon, the likes that even he hadn’t seen for a very long time. But this guy couldn’t use it to its full potential.
Now if it was his grandfather? That would be a different case.
(But still, how did they get their hands on such a weapon)
The man in the golden robes mused.
The golden Griffin clan was prominent and immensely rich, but they definitely couldn’t afford a weapon like this. Hell, even he couldn’t afford a weapon like this.
"You...I’ll kill you!!!" The current head of the golden Griffin clan went crazy with rage and slashed forward.....this was his chance to prove himself to his grandfather. Kill yunas and stay as the head, lose and get unseated by his father.
"Enough!!!" Seeing the clan head rush towards him the king spoke In a commanding tone, following which...
—Boom!!!!
An extraordinary gust of mana blew through the sky and pushed the clan head away.
The king was no ordinary peak level 4 great mage. The distance between him and the stage of level 5 wasn’t that far.
His only opponent could only be the old man on the golden Griffin clan.
"Okay okay, that’s enough"
As soon as the clan head was pushed back, a voice resounded from one of the clouds.....there the figure of an old man could be seen seated
On the clouds.
"Finally showing yourself huh?" The King looked directly at the new arrival and said.
The old man of the golden Griffin clan, Pyralis.
"Hmmm, you disappointment...." completely ignore yunas. Pyralis turned to his son and Berated him. He knew all he went through to get that spear so his son could fight against yunas with it.
But he lost. It was completely embarrassing that he, a level 5 warlock needed to fight against a lesser.
"Grandfather, no!!! Give me another chance" with a gash of blood on his forehead, the current head shouted in desperation. But could that change the outcome?
"From today henceforth you will step down from the position of head and I will take charge until you reach the peak of level 4" Pyralis said in a casual tone.
It didn’t make a diffrent to him, his grandchild beating yunas or him as long as it was a head of the golden Griffin clan beating a head of the duan royal family.
"Good, now we can get to it?" The King looked at Pyralis with a smile. He didn’t like the fight with the boy. It felt like he was being tested on whether or not he was worthy.
This was absurd, who would dare test the king of the kingdom of elodria?
"Your confidence is based on what exactly?" The level 5 warlock shook his head and asked mockingly.
Yes, he had yunas had fought in multiple skirmishes and he had grown to respect him to an extent. What he didn’t like was watching yunas act unreasonable.
Did he really think he could beat a level 5 warlock?
"You will have to come and find out" Yunas smirked.
He could confirm with absolute certainty now that truly, Pyralis had stepped into the realm of legends. But he wasn’t afraid anymore, the thought of finally going all out against this old fighting buddy was filling him with an insurmountable thrill.
"I see, okay then " While still seated cross-legged Pyralis streched his hand forward and beckoned the spear in his grandchilds hand over.
"Hm?" The weapon flew away from him slowly and landed in the hand of Pyralis with utmost grace.
"A spear as light as a feather, as bright as gold. Magical sight, white and old. Golden beam"
While still seated Pyralis used the spear to send out a golden beam not much different from the one his grandchild use.
"Hmmm, much better!!" Yunas beamed with bright eyes and dodged.
The difference in skill was clear as day because the speed at which that beam of light and barreled towards him was Astonishing.
He had bearly dodged it.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"Hold your ground, do not let them go any futher!!!!"
"Knight calvary first brigade, forward!!!"
"A head from the golden Griffin clan will go for 50,000 gold coins"
The mage side rallied their troops open while defending against the warlocks.
This was an ambush and no matter how well prepared they thought they were, they couldn’t have been ready for this.
"Sire, level 3 fighters have appeared. I’m afraid this place would soon be too dangerous for low level fighters" one of the knights from the white Knight calvary stepped forward and reported.
"You think I don’t know that? Shut the fuck up and get into formation"
His commanding officer put him in his place. He was right, when level 3 fighters enter the field it usually meant that the place was no longer safe.
Even though level 4 existences were still more powerful, they were few and their side could easily block any attack. But there were a multitude of level 3 fighters all over the kingdom.
If they started throwing spells here this place would soon become a ruin. They were just too hard to keep track of.
"Blood Demon Liana?"
"Flame giant guss"
"Talkwin Sar"
"Duan Di"
Slowly level 3 fighters started appearing in the skies of the royal Palace and all throughout the central City.
"It’s a shame that Alaric couldn’t be found" next to Liana, the winged devil commented with a slight chuckle.
Liana really wanted to kill Alaric for what he did to her, but upon getting to the Dalriss Household she met in in rumbles and bodies were all over the place.
They couldn’t find him
It seemed like someone else had targeted the dalriss family household.
"Truly a shame" Liana said with a hint of annoyance. But it was soon replaced with clarity. "It’s about to start" she said.
"Goo!!!" From infront of her, a warlock with a gigantic build pointed outwards
And in no time it took off.
From each side level 3 warlocks and mages started to engage each other effectively destroying buildings and damaging infrastructure.
Even if this battle was to go sideways, the central City would have suffered heavy losses that couldn’t be fixed in a small amount of time.
—Boom!!!!
—Boom!!!!
—Boom!!!
However, this level of destruction couldn’t be compared by what would happen next.
" Ancient Godly descent Formation circuit"
High above the sky 𝚗ovp𝚞b.𝚌om
Even higher that where the level 4 beings were fighting.
The figure of a man in golden robes and a furry mass around his shoulder could be seen.
King Yunas
—greeeeeeee!!!!
—booom!!!!
Around the outter Palace several ancient inscriptions emitting a terrifying energy Began appearing from out of nowhere.
The sky Palace and the duan royal family also had plans for the future
