Heavenly Saga

'That was a relief! It's a good thing that I hid here! Big Bro Kraftvoll did not find me!' said Prince Uther as Kraftvoll charged toward the upper part of Mt. Verrater.

He was under the ground where Kraftvoll was running earlier. The youngest prince would probably be found out if Kraftvoll used a detection seishin spell like Wind Scan seishin spell.

After transversing the mountain for some minutes, Kraftvoll decided to do something so he halted on his advance toward the deeper part of Mt. Verrater. 

As soon as he stopped he chanted, "As the symbol of the mysteries of the world, I instruct thee, bring the opposed of light unto this world, Umbrage Vassal!"

Before Kraftvoll began chanting, he was suddenly enveloped by a seishin aura with the color of black. When he started chanting, the black seishin essences from the surroundings suddenly started gathering around him.

At the middle of his chant, those black seishin essences that he was able to gather began transforming into particles of shadow one by one.

At the end of his chant, the darkness that he was able to produce merged until it because a monster with a body made up of darkness.

After summoning this shadow familiar with his, Kraftvoll immediately gave the shadow familiar its first command. He commanded, "Go that way! Attack everyone that you encountered. After defeating them, you need to loot all of the plate numbers that they have in them."

Kraftvoll showed his plate number toward his shadow familiar after saying that. A moment later, the shadow familiar that he had summoned immediately charged where Kraftvoll commanded him to go.

'Now, let's start the hunt! My first stop is the day! It's only near so I better start preparing!' Kraftvoll thought to himself before he charged toward his first stop when he was a first-grader.

While he was running, Kraftvoll chanted, "As the exemplar of the power of the spirit in sustaining life, I adjure thee, help me feel the essences of the world with your great power, Gale Survey!"

Green seishin aura enveloped him the moment Kraftvoll started chanting this seishin spell of his. Amidst of saying his chant, an enormous amount of green seishin essences from his surroundings started to accumulate around him as he chants.

In the middle of his chant, all of the green seishin essences that she was able to gather began merging with his mind one by one. At the end of his chant, Kraftvoll was able to connect his senses of the air within a wide circumference around him.

The area of this canning seishin spell of his was even greater than when he conjured the Wind Scan seishin spell because the Gale Survey seishin spell was the upgraded version of the Wind Scan seishin spell.

"I got you!" Kraftvoll said as quietly as he can. He was able to find one target within the radius of his seishin spell.

When he stopped the full capabilities of his Gale Survey seishin spell, he was still able to feel what he was feeling when he was using the Wind Scan seishin spell. It would only last for five minutes which is plenty of time for Kraftvoll to use.

After that moment, Kraftvoll charged toward the side of that target of his. When he reached the sight of the enemy, he slowed down his advance as to not be noticed by the enemy.

Like he was in his first year at the competition, the enemy that he managed to find was ambushing students from that very tree he used before doing the same thing as well.

'I was truly fortunate in my first year. I think I defeated one or two enemies at that spot. Too bad, I am going to end that person's turn at this competition.' Kraftvoll thought to himself as he slowly walked toward the blind spot of his enemy.

The moment he reached the blind spot of the enemy, Kraftvoll silently chanted, "As the symbol of the mysteries of the world, I instruct thee, shackle everything that resists against thy master's will, Phantom Shackles!"

WIthout the enemy knowing it, the black seishin essences around Kraftvoll started to accumulate when he started to chant this seishin spell. At the middle of his chant, those black seishin essences that he managed to gather began turning into particles of darkness consecutively.

At the end of his chant, all of the particles of darkness that Kraftvoll conjured started to target the enemy that Kraftvoll was aiming to defeat. It was only at the last moment when the enemy felt Kraftvoll's seishin spell.

"WHAT IS THIS!?" asked Kraftvoll's target as the Phantom Shackles slowly crawled to her body.

After the Phantom Shackles seishin spells finished capturing Kraftvoll's prey, its caster immediately jumped to the top of the three to get his loot.

When Kraftvoll saw his prey's face, he said out loud, "You're Aerin!?"

Kraftvoll decided to show temporarily remove the part of the Shadow Cloak seishin spell that covered his head. When he did that, the elven girl that was captured with Phantom Shackled was very shocked after recognizing her attacker.

"Big Brother Kraftvoll!? I encountered you in the early part of the competition!? I really have a stroke of bad luck today!" said the elven girl that Kraftvoll captured.

The whole name of the one that Kraftvoll managed to capture was Aerin Le Traceran, Adelle's younger sister and the youngest daughter of the High Lord Silvyr Le Traceran. She was currently a second-grader in the Verrater Academy.

A moment later, Aerin said to Kraftvoll, "I surrender. You can cancel this seishin spell and I will hand over my plate number to you."

After hearing the elven girl, Kraftvoll canceled his Phantom Shackles without a moment of hesitation. He trusts the girl in front of him because he knew her ever since she entered after Adelle introduced her to the gang.

After the Phantom Shackles seishin spell vanished into nothingness, Aerin handed over her plate number to Kraftvoll with a smile on her face. "You got me, this time, big brother Kraftvoll. I'll surpass you someday!" said the elven girl.

Before going on his way, Kraftvoll said to Aerin, "I will look forward when that time arrived. I'll become even stronger then!"

A moment later, Kraftvoll decided to go on his way after he covered his face again with the Shadow Cloak seishin spell.

'What bad luck! Of all the people to encounter!' Aerin could only think to herself as she watched Kraftvoll go on his way toward the deeper parts of the mountain. 

After a few seconds, a member of the Shadow Corps suddenly appeared beside Aerin saying, "You've been eliminated in the competition. Let me escort you to the base of the mountain."

The only thing that Aerin could do was agree to the escort.

Meanwhile, Kraftvoll continued his hunt after getting his first loot for the competition. Since the people who could match Kraftvoll were all seniors, no one in the early part of the competition could beat Kraftvoll.

Kraftvoll easily looted ten plate numbers for half an hour of hunting. To be ready for his encounter with the Ice Queen, Kraftvoll decided to go rendezvous with his shadow familiar without a moment of hesitation. 

'Where is my shadow familiar? I'll go to that place to enter deep meditation. I must be ready before SHE enters the competition. I want to end the battle once and for all.' Kraftvoll thought to himself after he got his tenth plate number.

After using his seishin connection with his summon familiar, Kraftvoll immediately went to it in order for him to go to that cave where he hid when he was just a first-grader.

"There you are!" said Kraftvoll after reached his shadow familiar.

When the Umbrage Vassal seishin spell heard its master's voice, it immediately stopped from its movement. After he climbed to its back, Kraftvoll immediately commanded to his shadow familiar, "Go to that direction!"

Upon hearing the command of its owner, the shadow familiar that Kraftvoll summoned ran without a moment of hesitation to the direction that Kraftvoll pointed him out to.

As soon as he reached the cave, Kraftvoll chanted a seishin spell to survey the whole cave. He chanted, "As the exemplar of the power of the spirit in sustaining life, I adjure thee, help me feel the essences of the world with your great power, Gale Survey!"

Suddenly, an immense amount of green seishin essences from Kraftvoll's surroundings began gathering around him as soon as he began chanting. Kraftvoll did not use the seishin aura technique this time because it would only result in the pointless expenditure of inner seishin essences.

After he finished conjuring that seishin spell, Kraftvoll managed to feel everything inside the cave. A moment later, Kraftvoll showed a smile on his face.

He thought to himself, 'There's an enemy inside! And he is using the same technique that was used on me when I was a first-grader! Well, it's time to make this cave my temporary base again!'
