Chapter 399 A Portal To The Dark Dimension



"This is turning into a heated battle," Max said. "That boy wasn't kidding when he said he made it past level five at your arcade."

"I'm more surprised at how he made it past the level with a wounded shoulder," Sony said.

Now that Luis had shocked almost everyone in the stadium and made it past level five with a wounded shoulder like they believed, it was now time to move on to level six.

"Who is that boy?" Kelvin leaned closer to Nicole to ask as he was beginning to develop an interest in him just like everyone else.

"Luis Miles, he's a first-year student at the academy," Nicole said.

"I know that, what I meant is, which family is he from, who are his parents?" Kelvin asked.

"Oh, Luis is an orphan." She said,

"An orphan," Kelvin muttered.

"But he's living with the Phillips."

"Oh, does he have any ability?"

"No, sir, he doesn't have any ability," Nicole said.

"Okay," Kelvin said before slowly turning his gaze back to the pitch.

Iris had been going around the stands with the two sergeants that were with her but they had not been able to find anything relating to that attack and all the answers they had gotten from the students so far weren't going to lead them to anything.

"Hello, Iris, have you found anything yet?" Gary said with his hand placed on his earpiece.

"No, sir," Iris answered.

"Okay, I'm going to station eight sergeants in the stands to monitor things," Gary said.

"Okay, what about me?" She asked.

"Return here now, I think I know what's going on." He said.

"You do?" Iris said, faking a surprised voice.

"Yeah."

Level six was about to kick off as Mason was standing on the large disc waiting for the sergeant to give him the signal.

"Alright Mason, you have twenty seconds." The sergeant said before clicking the start button.

He calculated the twenty seconds in his mind and as soon as it was complete three discs shot out from the disc shooting one after the other as he quickly did a back flip toward the edge of the disc.

This was the first time this had happened since the competition began, the discs flew directly to where he had been standing and banged on the large disc before rolling off to the side.

This was the level where Mason showed his true skills as the discs were being shot out at a really fast speed and the tricky ways they were being shot out now made it even harder to avoid them.

Flips, rolls, spins, the third-year student was doing everything to make sure he didn't get hit by any of the discs and so far he was doing great.

He was down to the last seven discs which had all been shot toward him one after the other with a time difference of five hundred milliseconds each.

He did well in dodging the discs until the last one which he quickly bent down to avoid but he wasn't fast enough as the disc made little contact with his head before flying off.

As soon as the disc touched his head, the light on the edges of the disc turned red.

"Mason Limelight of Phoenix academy has been eliminated from the competition." The sergeant announced.

"Come on," Mason said in frustration as he slammed his fist into the ground.

'This is your chance.' Lena said as Luis slowly walked to the large disc.

"Before I click the start button, you all should know that the only way Luis Miles can win the competition in this current situation is if he finishes without getting hit, if he gets hit while there are still discs in the machine Mason will be declared the winner, if he gets hit by the last disc just like Mason, then there will be a rematch." The sergeant disclosed.

As soon as Mason heard that, a wry smile appeared on his face as a mischievous idea popped up in his mind.

"You have twenty seconds Luis." The sergeant said before clicking the start button.

The Angel once again started by putting himself in dangerous situations and getting himself out of those situations because he had the speed to do it.

"It's like he's trying so hard to make it look like he's struggling," Mia muttered.

'This is going to be an easy win.' The Angel thought before springing up to dodge the three discs heading toward him.

He was now down to the last six discs and just like he thought they had been shot toward him one after the other with a time difference of five hundred milliseconds.

The first two discs zoomed past him from both sides and seeing that the last four were heading directly toward him, he did a black flip as they all banged in the spot where he had been standing but they didn't fall off and four of them were rolling toward him now.

He had both feet directly on the edge of the disc now, he was about to fall off but he had the strength to push himself back up until…..

[ Golden Fortification deactivated ]

[ All stats have returned to normal ]

'No, no, no.'

The Angel had entered a state of panic in his mind now as he was trying to prevent himself from falling off with four discs rolling towards him and if any of them touches him then there would have to be a rematch.

'You are definitely going to lose a rematch without that Golden fortification.' Lena said.

'All you need is just a little push.' Mason said in his mind as he had spotted the right person to use for the job.

'Don't you even dare!' Nova's voice resounded in his mind, cutting off his ability before it could get to his target.

'Who are you?' The third-year student asked with a startled tone in his subconscious voice.

'Don't worry, we'll meet, very soon.'

Luis held himself in that position as the discs kept getting closer and just before they could touch him, they slowed down and fell flat right beside his feet.

As soon as the discs stopped moving, the light on the edges of the large disc lit up green.

The Angel let out a sigh of relief before allowing himself to crash down on the floor.

"The winner of the disc shooting competition is Luis Miles from Crockel academy." The sergeant announced as soon as the Angel dropped to the floor.

"I can't believe it," Chris muttered with a shocked expression on his face, he was the only one who had the same thought in mind.

The stadium was filled with cheers, especially from Crockel academy students both those that didn't believe in him and those who that believed as long as it was someone from their academy, they were happy.

In the Elven underground kingdom, all the elves were gathered in front of the king's castle as he had summoned them to make a very important inquiry.

The area was filled with murmurs as the question Ashburn asked seemed to have sparked quite a reaction from them.

"I will ask again!" Ashburn said with a thunderous voice that caused all the elves to quickly shut their mouths. "Is anyone in possession of any piece or pieces or large pieces of stones of Avalon?"

There was no direct response from anyone as the murmurs were slowly beginning to return.

"If you come forth now and bring the stones to me, I promise there will be no punishments but If I find out on my own."

There was nothing from any of them as the elf king continued to browse through them with his eyes to see if he could spot anything suspicious and that was when he made eye contact with a young knight.

Any elf would look away on making eye contact but this particular elf didn't look away and kept eye contact with the king.

Before he knew it, he began to levitate above the other elves.

"Is there anything I should know about, young one?" Ashburn asked.

"No." The elf replied.

"Oh, really, you look like you want to tell me something." He said.

"No, I don't have anything to tell you." The young elf said, he didn't seem startled at all.

"Do you want me to squeeze it out of you then?" Ashburn said as his voice had immediately gone from partially sweet to deeply menacing.

"My lord." Someone's voice was heard from the side as two hooded figures entered the area and when they pulled down the hoods their long pointy ears could be seen confirming that they were elves. "We have news from Asaka."

"It can wait," Ashburn said, turning his gaze back to the young elf who was still floating in the air.

"It's urgent my lord, very urgent."

As soon as his ears picked up that word 'urgent', he dropped the young knight on the floor before turning to enter his throne room.

As soon as he reached there, the two hooded elves appeared in front of him.

"What is the urgent news?" He asked.

"Something's happening in Asaka, their sky has suddenly turned red." The elf in charge of speaking said.

"Red sky, what else?" Ashburn asked, moving to his throne.

"And something seemed to have happened to their king, he summoned the people, brought out a large container filled with a strange dark liquid, and asked them to make cuts on their hands and let a drop of their blood drop into it.

"One of them questioned him on why they had to do it and he killed him, he pulled him closer with this strange purple power and stabbed him to death."

"Purple power?"

"Yes my lord and after that, the people had no choice but to do what he said." The elf said.

"Did anything happen after the people dropped their blood into the liquid?" Ashburn asked.

"Yes, he muttered some words before a dark light shot into the red sky to create some kind of strange dark portal."

"Is anything coming through the portal?"

"Nothing has come through it, at least not yet." The elf said.

Ashburn didn't say anything as he slowly sat down on his throne with a horrid look on his face.

"Why would he open a portal to the dark dimension?" He muttered.
