Chapter 123 - Tornado

"Huh? Don't you know when to stay down and die? You're gonna regret ever bothering to get back up!" said Albert as he watched Julius get out from the smoke and face him once again.

"Don't worry, I'll show the power of the division captains! I'll teach you to say put like a good dog!" said Albert as he prepared to charge at Julius with his bare hands.

<<Secret Art: Golden Pole>>

A secret art had been activated but Albert wasn't the one to do it as the captain of the 10th division of the meditation army continued to charge at Julius. Seeing this, Julius also began to run towards Albert as he wanted to some revenge for the explosion that he was forced to take to the face and body.

"I'll kill you!… Just kidding," said Albert as he came to a sudden stop while he waited to Julius to attack him as they were very close to each other.

As Julius threw his revenge punch, everything began to slow down for him as he saw a person beside him who leapt from Albert's back. The man to Julius' side had a golden pole in his hand. The man had moved too quickly to allow Julius to dodge or counter since he was already focused on Albert.

"Damn-" Julius thought to himself before the golden pole hit him on the head and he was sent flying off as if he was just a messily insect. Seeing this, everyone began to cheer as they celebrated the attack that had landed.

"We've won! He can't get up from that! All thanks to vice captain Caesar's efforts! Our captain's rock!" The other soldiers began to celebrate.

The attire of the soldiers of the 10th devision was a white thick leather jacket with long white brushed polyester fabric made pants along with black shoes. Truly an odd sense of fashion yet it somehow fit them.

"Don't worry, he should be dead. No matter how strong that boy is, there's no way he would survive such a hit to the head. Let's pack things up," said Caesar as he began to walk away casually not like his captain who liked to show off.

"You dirty fighting scoundrels! I'll kill you all!" said Julius as he got up from the ground with his head bleeding.

"Just get back on the ground and die of blood loss, stop fighting us, this is a pointless battle," said Caesar is a calm and collected voice.

"Like hell I would die like this!" Julius argued back.

"Oh is that so? Then let us show you why this is a pointless battle. Our collective division consists of 100 guild master and 900 underlings. I'm out while army, there are 10 divisions which means that even if you defeat us, you'll have to face 9 other divisions which only get stronger as you progress through them, just die already!" Caesar said as he began to loose his cool before relaxing again after taking a few breathes in and out.

"Okay men! Let us show him what we're made of! Let us show him what the 10th division is made out of!" Caesar yelled out which everyone yelled back in agreement with an enthusiastic "YEAH!".

…

Over 100 people in the crowd activated the first secret art which Julius had learned from Jun. Of course while it did bring him sadness that his first secret art would be used against him. However in the other side of things, he was happy to see it once again since it had been so long since he had seen the move.

"How's this Julius?! You think you can stand up to over one hundred thousand blades all aimed at you?! Well then, good luck in hell!" Caesar yelled out and at that precise moment, just like Caesar had said, over one hundred thousand blades began to fall onto Julius like rapid rain.

"Maybe it was okay for this war to start. I can show people scumbags like you that the world isn't just black and white. Just because you have something powerful on your side doesn't mean you'll always win. Just like how if you have more numbers, it's not guaranteed that you'll win," Julius began to speak.

"Ha! Look at him, he has gone insane for fear of death! Well too bad, you'll going rot in hell wether you like it or not!" Caesar said as he began to laugh.

"You know, you're pretty weird. It seems like you're always changing your attitude as if you're unstable, I wish I got to learn more about you Caesar," said Julius as he let out a gentle smile.

"As for this battle, let me show you all a sight you'll never be able to forget. Prepare to face your worst nightmare and engrave the sight you've about to see into your brains for the rest of your lives. I'll show you the fruits of all my labour for the past 3 years," Julius yelled out.

<<Special Trait: Tornado>>

Even though special trait had been activated, there was no weapon in sight. They couldn't see a single weapon glowing because of the monster core it would have absorbed.

"How odd…" said Caesar as he looked around to see that there was not a single weapon in sight. Although not a single object was growling, Julius's chest had began to grow as he continued to inhale while his chest began to glow.

"No that can't be possible right? That's just insane! It has never been heard of!" said Caesar as had finally realized what was happening and began to run.

"What are you so scared of? He's already pretty weak! All we have to do is land a couple more hits and he'll go down for every," said Albert as he was confused since he never even considered the possibility of what Julius had done.

"He'a no human.. He ate… a monster core," said Caesar as he began to cry in fear.
