Chapter 52 - Dimensional Twist

<<Magical Art: Dimensional Twist>>

Julius who had completely gone unconscious by now and had allowed his second entity to take over had just used… magic. The most forbidden, cursed and hideous power which had existed in all of his world's history. It had thought to have been erased from existence and yet, there was someone who could use such a power.

"M-Magical Art?!" the red haired boy exclaimed as he began to tremble while moving back.

"How?! Why?! It was supposed to have been erased! Even the subjects were forbidden from learning it, so why? Why does this child have all of these forbidden things?!" the red haired boy asked himself as he watched an enormous white magic circle appear on the ground. With each second that passed, the magic circle began to rise until it stopped the divine blades right before they touched Julius. However, that was not all the magic was meant to do.

The white magic circle began to spin in clockwise motion however, instead of the divine blades which were standing on it, spinning it, the stood still and as the magic circle spun, they began to twist, hence the name of the magical spell.

The red haired boy just stood and watched as his beloved secret art was twisted until it the blades finally broke, leaving him nothing but shattered garbage.

Seeing this, the red haired boy got on both of his knees as tears began to flow out of his eyes like water fall. He had lost.

"I-I lost!" the red haired boy yelled out in agony from his defeat. However, Julius' second entity wasn't done there as he made the white magic circle disappear with a snap and raised its right palm into the air.

<<Magical Art:->>

Before the second entity could finish activating its spell, Julius' left arm gentle brought him right palm back down as ur halted the spell's activation. A moment later, the white light in Julius' eyes began to disappear as the real Julius returned to the control over his body.

Next, Julius began to walk towards the red haired boy who had admitted his defeat. Although Julius himself was beyond exhausted and just wanted to fall into slumber for the new few years, he still walked towards the red haired boy as he had something to finish.

…

"What's your real name, subject number 1?" Julius asked the red haired boy.

"Why are you asking something like that at a time like this? Just kill me already! Don't you want to get revenge for your master?!" the red haired boy demanded to which Julius coldly slapped him even though he was exhausted.

"Only I ask the questions here! Now, what's your name?" Julius asked once again in a harsher tone.

"Ian, my name is Ian," the red haired boy replied.

"Okay then Ian, from now on, I am your king. No questions asked, you will obey all of my orders as a thank you for me sparing your life… no, you will obey me for the sole reason that I am your king. I would never kill my loyal subjects," Julius said as he corrected himself. Hearing those words, Ian just sat in the ground, unable to come up with a reply.

"For my first order, let's go back to the village," said Julius. Without even questioning him, Ian got up and held Julius up with his arm on his shoulder.

"Yes sir," said Ian as he began his journey back to the village.

…

Once returning to the village where Jun was still trying to use a healing secret art to heal the wound which was inflicted upon him, Julius asked Ian himself to use a higher tier secret art if he had any which would be able to reverse the effects of the attack he used on Jun. In fact, Ian did have a secret art along those lines.

Once healed, Julius explained to Jun what had taken place without mentioning the magic part. Of course, Julius also informed Ian to keep the magic a secret as no one could know about it. After everything had been taken care of, it was time for Julius and Jun go take their leave, however before they could do that, Julius needed to inform Ian of something.

"Hey Ian, I know that you're still worried about what will become of this world if the 10th kingdom is revived. I can't guarantee that people won't die. I can't guarantee that people won't suffer, however, I can guarantee you something. Before I met you, I wanted to create a kingdom only for the people who were suffering right now and leave all the rich people alone. While that seemed okay at first, now I see that it could cause a divide between people and I turn start problems in the future. What I'm basically trying to say is that I don't want to just take the 10th kingdom, I want to take over the other 9 kingdoms alone and distribute the wealth so that not a single person will be excluded," Julius explained which almost made Ian tear up but he stopped himself and instead bowed while shaking his head up and down to show his agreement and gratitude.

"So please, take care of his continent until I get strong enough to rule the world. I'll be looking for your full support when that time comes," said Julius as he finally wakes goodbye to Ian as he went off to ride the jade dragon which Jun was already waiting for him on.

…

"So is he on our side?" Jun asked as his student got in the dragons

"Yup. The mission is finally complete. I feel so tired, I think I'll be sleeping for the next thousand years," said Julius as the dragon began to fly.

"Oh no you don't! Now that the mission has been completed, you're going straight into training and monster killing then I'll probably send you off to a dungeon too. I'm going to make you train like you never done before.. You're going to pay for hogging all the spotlight during this mission," said Jun as he put on his familiar grin.
