Chapter 353 - Whose More Talented?

Authors Words:

First of all, I would like to apologize for the long leave, I know just how annoying it is when there's a huge leave without any new chapters and for that once again I'm sorry.

It's just that suddenly I was met with a lot of bad luck, lots of s.h.i.+t happened around me these days, lost some money, flung from a bike, didn't even know I confessed and got rejected, hospital issues and more, somehow everything bad came my way.

I would like to thank all my readers who still keep reading this even though my updates aren't always constant, it's your support that keeps me moving! and I will try to make my posts more h.o.m.ogenous.

As an apology here's a sneak peek into the novel I am working on:

[MMORPG Horizon: Rise Of The G.o.dly Manipulator]

I haven't posted it and I am still working on it but it will come out one day and let's just say that this book will be much more planned out, I can't promise the best but I can tell you that your mind will definitely be manipulated.

With lots of love...Chaosking.

"It's quiet"

Marlene spoke as the three of them entered inside the path that Catherine has pointed out, the three of them moving with extreme caution, Austin took the center focus, as he had changed his weapon from his bow to a sword,

"Just when did you learn the sword?"

Marlene suddenly asked with curiosity to which Austin replied,

"Well, I had my chances...."

Hearing his vague reply Marlene pouted, signs that she was opening up to him more,

"You seem good at it"

She spoke as she gazed at his hold and position, as a close combatant, Marlene had sharp senses when it comes to people of close combat,

"Well I am talented"

Austin replied in a matter-of-fact tone earning snorts filled with disdain from the two girls, though their lips did raise up in a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt but that didn't last for long as Austin suddenly pulled Catherine back, as an arrow arrived at the position she stood,

"I couldn't sense it"

Marlene said with a frown as she gazed at the arrow that had drilled into the ground, even with her powers decreasing it still hasn't reached a level where she's unable to feel an arrow, especially a powerful one as this,

"This is not good"

Austin said as he looked back causing the two girls to turn around their eyes widening as they saw nothing!

The path they had walked upon now had disappeared! there was now no way back, the worst thing here was the fact that none of them felt anything! it was as if the road was disappearing beyond their understanding,

"The situation is getting worse"

Catherine said with a pale face, it would seem that the poison was affecting her more than she lets out,

"But the main question here is, where did the arrow come from?"

Catherine asked as she looked forward, they were once again walking forward in a closed off wall like the area but now the area forward was foggy, severely affecting their sight and path forward, if one was to look at this another way, the current path they are in is much more dangerous than before,

"Looks like I made a mistake"

Catherine said as she bit her lips, frustration filling her as she clenched her hands tight but she wasn't let to sink into her feelings as Austin tapped onto her shoulder as he looked at her with a relaxed smile,

"Calm down, none of us knew how it was going to be, this decision was made by the two of us, don't sink yourself further"

Hearing his words, Marlene nodded her head as she took spoke,

"That's right we made the decision together, so we face the problem that comes together"

Hearing the encouraging words Catherine relaxed, as she put on a smile, pumping her hands forward,

"Don't worry, this is not enough to bring me down!"

"Good"

Marlene and Austin spoke at the same time, after which they looked at each other and smiled,

"We can't stay like this, we must move forward, unfortunately, my tracing spells are not working"

Austin spoke to which a brooding look took Catherine's face as she spoke,

"Right now our sight is severely limited and only you are the one in perfect condition, you can't also cast two barriers on us, since that will deplete your mana and we don't know what lay ahead"

Her precise words made the other two silent as they too pondered,

"Um...may I ask what is your Origin level?"

Catherine finally asked after some hesitation, she knew that no one knows the Origin level of Austin, and even if there are moving together now at the end of the day Austin and they were compet.i.tors for the position of King/queen, asking about his secrets isn't the best thing but she needed more information to make a more concrete plan,

"My level.....huh"

Austin said with a difficult look, upon on seeing so Catherine waved his hand as she spoke,

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to"

"It's not that, well it's just I can't currently use my full power"

Austin said making the two girls' attention turn peak,

"What do you mean?"

Marlene asked,

"Well, my master sealed some of my real origin levels to help me"

"Why?"

Catherine asked,

"To make it such that I won't be lost within my talent"

Hearing the bitter reply of Austin the two girls looked at each other before focusing back on Austin,

"So what's your current real level?"

"Cough....origin level 8"

"What?"

Austin had replied in a very quiet voice causing the two girls to ask again, upon on seeing so Austin replied with a higher voice,

"Origin level 8"

"....."

"....."

"You-You're kidding right?"

Catherine asked with a forced smile on her face, while Marlene has turned completely silent, to this only a wry smile could fill Austin's face as he replied back,

"I wish I was joking....."

"NO WAY! you are really in Origin level 8?!"

Catherine reacted heavily as she moved up to Austin and started shaking up his shoulders while her eyes widened beyond belief, she wasn't the only one as Marlene seemed out of it too, well who could blame them, an Origin level 8 at the age of 18? yeah, that was enough to shake the world.

But wait.....suddenly it clicked on Catherine as she asked back with trembling eyes,

"You-You said your powers are sealed right? then what's your true level?"

Hearing this question Austin kept on his wry smile as he sighed and replied,

"Sigh...Origin level 10"

Puff!

Suddenly Catherine lost balance and fell backward she was shocked silly, looking at Marlene she seemed to have turned to stone as she just stood there holding her spear, Austin could only shake his head at this scene, well he couldn't blame them, though he could hide his power, it was only good on the short run but on the long run this would only bite his a.s.s in the future,

"We can't stand here shocked, there's a deadly path that lay ahead"

It was only after Austin spoke did the two broke out of their shock, their eyes filled with disbelief as the two gorgeous girls looked at Austin as if he was a monster, even the usually super compet.i.tive and battle-desiring Marlene was looking at Austin as if he was a freak, even though the two of them wanted to deny it they knew at heart that Austin couldn't be lying.

By now the two of them already have a certain high trust for Austin, plus there's also the added fact that Austin lying here was only detrimental but even then understanding it doesn't mean that it's easy to accept it.

The two girls are the best of the best of their generations, pride and arrogance in their talent and powers fills them but now they were crushed utterly by someone else, whose much more talented than them, and even worse the person was younger than them!

They must be saints to be happy about it!

But even above that their feelings were now conflicted in many ways, they were happy that their friend and savior was this strong, which meant their survival chances were now up but then again this meant that their chance for the future compet.i.tion will be h.e.l.l, Austin would be a nightmare that will bring about a wave that couldn't be stopped.

Suddenly Marlene placed her hand on her chest as she spoke out,

"I on the name of the sea and as the nest ruler shall swear on the G.o.ddess that this information shall never leave my mouth"

"I too on the name of the sea and as the nest ruler of the mermaid tribe shall swear on the G.o.ddess that this information shall never leave my mouth"

Catherine copied her and spoke, a white light filling the two before fading away, since their friend had put his trust in them, they paid back the trust back with their actions.
