Kai swung his sword once more and Black Lightning bolts fell from the sky onto his sword. Kai's 6 Lightning eyes also turned black as Kai perfectly unleashed the power of the Black Lightning. But Kai didn't seem to be pleased at all. He showed the disappointment on his face without hiding it.

Kai had experienced an incredible jump in power during his time with Randal. He was still in the center of the Orange Lightning, but his power was far, far beyond that.

Kai clenched his fist and sat down on a stone in the corner, cursing his luck. The problem had nothing to do with luck.

"I still haven't reached the 2nd Lightning of the Black Lightning, what's wrong with me? What am I doing wrong?"

At that moment, Randal calmly approached Kai. He was holding a bowl with soup in it. Randal continued to drink his soup without asking if Kai was hungry.

"Because you're stupid. "

When Randal insulted Kai, Kai didn't get angry. This man was lazy, lazy, and a worthless cheapskate. But he was a genius. His words were never wrong. He was never wrong.

"Does the Art of Black Lightning seem like a simple art? This art is ancient. It is a legend. Perhaps it will take you years, or decades to master your second lightning bolt. It is foolish of you to think you can learn all 7 lightning bolts immediately."

Kai fell silent and took a deep breath as he realized his mistake. Sirius was staring down at the ground and he was thoughtful as he looked at him. He hadn't forgotten that day.

'"Can I call you grandad?" said Kai. He was still in a child's body. Naturally, his behavior was very sweet.

The old man smiled at Kai as if smiling at his grandson.

"Of course. You can call me anything you want."

"Grandfather, will I ever see you again?"

"Probably not, Kai. You will never see me again. Not when you're strong, not when you're near death. This is the last time."'

He had rarely felt what Sirius made him feel. It was love! Even though he'd received love from his family, this was like hugging his grandfather. When he was in his arms, the world was so simple that it didn't matter. No one could scare him when he was in that embrace. It was the true point of peace.

Randal noticed Kai's gaze and looked at Kai. A different aura was emanating from Kai's body. It was so strange that Randal could not give a name to this feeling.

"Longing.... longing?"

Kai ignored Randal and tried to connect with Sirius, but the truth was just as Sirius had said. He would never meet him again.

As Kai stared at his long black sword, Randal stood up and looked at the spot where Kai's lightning had struck. He spoke as he pushed the ashes aside with his foot.

"Why are you looking at your sword like that?" said Randal. His hands moved to his white beard and began stroking it. It seemed like a big stat, but Kai knew what he was like. Still, he was in no mood to care about that right now. He was sad. He was sad that he would never see an old man he had only seen once.

"I'm only sorry that I won't be able to see him again. Even if it's just for a moment... He gave me the feeling that my mum and dad gave me. I'm far away from them now, but one day I'll meet them again, but Sirius...... I'll never meet Sirius again."

Randal was surprised. Mana Weapons would be sentient, but them talking? That was unheard of at this level.

Kai lifted his filled eyes and looked at his master. For the first time, Randal's eyes changed from mockery as he looked into Kai's sad eyes. If a Kingslayer acted on his emotions, then he had experienced something really bad.

"But master, how come you don't know these things? You know everything. Mira, Michael, my friends. So why don't you know anything about me?"

Kai wiped his eyes with his hands and came out of his emotional state. When his words reached Randal's ears, they made Randal think.

"Actually... It's all because of your blood. Turkish blood has a strange and powerful bloodline. It has nothing to do with the energy of Life and Death. It's only about the sanctity of blood. The power of a bloodline that millions of people have."

Although Turkish blood controls the energy of Life and Death, a person has to have a perfect bond with his blood to use the energy of Life and Death to kill someone.

It was also necessary to bring someone back from the dead. The conditions were extremely harsh, and blood alone was not enough. After all, his body would be weakened after bringing someone back from the dead. As extraordinary as the Turkish blood was, it was also limited in what it could do.

Although Kai did not bond with the Turkish Blood, he felt its benefits.

"My Mana weapon. The Eye of Truth. Thanks to it, I can find out what's going on in the surroundings. I'm at the Half Step Opening Sky Level. Of course, the level of this eye now covers the whole world, but I can't see the purebloods of very strong bloodlines. I can't see the Turks with blood purity over 50 percent. After my master left me, I couldn't find him again. But I can see your other two siblings. Their blood was 40 percent. "

Kai turned his head and looked at Randal. It was impossible not to notice the wonder in his eyes. He had, of course, realized the problem.

"I have three siblings. "

At Kai's words, Randal froze in place. Then he continued as if nothing had happened.

"Then the purity of that sibling's blood is more than 50 percent."

"And which of my siblings did you see?"

"The twins."

Kai became thoughtful.

"So Sam....."

Randal didn't care at all about Kai's thoughts and came and sat next to him. No matter how much soup he had in his hand, he couldn't finish it. A real treasure. This was the treasure Randal treasured the most in his life.

Randal reached out his arm and hugged Kai. He had that devilish smile on his face again as he softly leaned close to his ear. Instead of being a wise old man, he had become a funny old man.

"Kai... I am your master. Do you know what you have to do to graduate from my training apprenticeship?"

Kai looked at Randal in horror. He was no longer as sad as he had been. This old geezer was dangerous. It was foolish to expect his task to be a simple one.

"I'll give you a simple task. Destroy a city or fortress without using your powers. Isn't it simple?"

Kai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the task. Not using his powers was a big problem, but of all the tasks this old geezer could give him, this one was too simple.

"Sure, in 3 days. "

Kai almost fell out of his seat. In 3 days, he told him to destroy a settlement on Sky Island, without using his powers. He could slowly turn cities against each other, but he couldn't do it in three days.

"I can't use any powers."

"Hmmm, only against the city lord."

Randal got up and walked away without letting Kai say anything more. Kai was thinking about how to destroy a city in 3 days. The 3 days would not start immediately. It would start when Randal freed Kai and sent him to choose a city, but it was still very difficult. If he used his powers, this could have ended very easily. He couldn't help but sigh deeply.

" MASTER!!!!!"

At that moment, a group of people were moving through the forest, jumping over the trees. They all had an expression on their faces that was hard to erase. They were laughing. They looked very happy. They had made a big profit this time.

There was one cape person in the group. The other 9 people were wearing the clothes they wore on the expedition. Behind his cloak, Red Lightning could tell which academy they were from.

"How fast you are moving. Slow down a little."

The group of 10 people stopped in their places with the voice they heard and the young man they saw in front of them.

The young man in front of them looked about 15-16 years old. His hair was white and he had blue eyes. He was not very tall. And he did not have an incredible muscle mass. The aura emanating from his body indicated that he was the Head of the Orange Lightning. Despite this, he had a smile on his face that was not afraid of the 10 young people in front of him.

Urasi stepped forward. He was the only senior and the strongest in the group. He was almost half a step Red Lightning.

He pointed his sword at the young man in front of him and looked at him with his sharp gaze, but it was clear that the young man in front of him had nothing in the name of power. However, his confident stance kept Urasi on his guard.

"Who are you?! Why did you block our way?!"

Urasi's words were sharp and loud. They should have frightened a normal person in every way, but the youth in front of him did not even pay attention to his words.

He laughed and spoke.

"I am Alain Lawson from the Bloody Sand Academy. The reason I am here to welcome you is to take the Understone from you."

When Urasi and the other 9 people heard Alain's words, they immediately prepared for battle. If this young man could state his purpose so easily, there had to be someone else with him.

But Alain shook his head from side to side.

"Don't worry. It's just me. Do you think I'm not enough to defeat you?"

Urasi was angry when he heard Alain's words.

"Of course, you can't defeat us. You are only the Head of the Orange Lightning."

As soon as Urasi finished his words, Alain's eyes flashed with a white light and the smile on his face visibly widened.

Isaac was about to attack Alain, but he couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Urasi's legs start to grind. Alain was moving back and forth as if in mockery.

"My name is Alain. Alain, King of Lies! Anyone who dares lie in front of me is doomed to be stoned. Be on the sixth step if you have to be. You cannot neutralize the power of a King."

Urasi cursed his luck and immediately took off the robe and medallion and threw it at Isaac. He was petrified up to his torso and there was no way out of this situation. The underground stone was already in Isaac.

"And what did I lie about?"

Urasi's question caused Alain to smile. While Urasi's head was the only part of him that was not petrified, Alain's aura changed and he moved to the center of the Orange Lightning.

"I wasn't in the Centre of the Orange Lightning."

"Fuck!"

With Urasi's last word and Alain's true power revealed, the other 9 people were frightened, but the first to run away was Cowardly Boy. All 9 people were at the beginning of the Orange Lightning. There was no way they could resist a King in the center of the Orange Lightning.

But the others didn't realize this. One second after Isaac turned around and ran away, the other 8 people were dead. Alain chased after Isaac.

Despite everything, Isaac was running fast. Even though he was given the title of the cowardly boy, the title was true in every way. Isaac's Senior Cloak fluttered in the wind as he managed to escape from Alain.

By the time Isaac arrived at the gate of the city of Red Lightning, an incredible fatigue had overtaken his body. He had run without paying attention to anything to escape from Alain, and that was why there were countless blood stains on his body. He was scratched everywhere among the trees.

Isaac was walking towards the door while Sarah was waiting for Zaheer to return from his expedition. But she was shocked to see Isaac staggering towards the City gate. Although the guards of the gate quickly came in front of Isaac, Isaac signaled Sarah to stop with his hand. And he took out a bright red stone from his back pocket.

"Give this to Orion."

As Sarah took the stone, Isaac raised his head and took a deep breath. Before he fell face down on the ground, only three words came out of his mouth.

"I hate kings."
