Chapter 320 The First And Only One (Part 2)

A few minutes earlier after Salazar left the Twin Sword valley, he used his authority as a law enforcer to transport himself to the castle above the planet owned by the battle peak, and at the same time he summoned the other three law enforcers for an emergency.

While the inner and core elders had their residences at the neutral city, the castles which were built on an asteroid above the planets had an outer ring where the supreme elders lived, as for the inner castle which was also called "peak", only the ancestors or peak masters lived there.

As a law enforcer, Salazar's limit was the outer ring of the castle but he could enter at will, unlike core elders who had to be invited over by the supreme elders, all this was done so if there was an emergency the law enforcers could take the lead and gather the important people of the sect.

And so, in a matter of minutes, the four law enforcers, as well as the three core elders of the battle peak each one representing their respective faction gathered at the outer ring of the battle peak castle.

William already knew what was happening, so he simply sat to wait for the supreme elder to show up.

To other people displease or surprise, besides the core elder of the Black Sword faction, there was a second person wearing the black sword emblem, Agnes who was standing next to another blond-haired woman with purple eyes, who looked quite similar to Agnes.

,m The core elder of the Red Sword faction a, a skinny woman with red hair frowned as she glared at them.

"Valentina, in case your Black Sword faction has lost the ability to read the rules, this area is off limits for inner elders".

The woman standing next to Agnes, who seemed to be called Valentina, snorted.

"And, what are you going to do about it, Cristina?".

The atmosphere immediately tensed up to the point that the ground started trembling and small bolts of electricity exploded on the air from time to time.

The other law enforcers didn't interfere as they weren't from the battle peak, the same applied to the remaining core elder, a green long-haired woman who was sitting cross legged with her eyes closed.

"That's enough you two, elder Cristina, I gave Agnes the right to come since she was the one who brought the one who will be the subject of this meeting".

Salazar who went to call the supreme elder of the battle peak, interrupted Cristina and Valentina, who turned to see him and calmed themselves after seeing the white jade palanquin who followed him.

"Greetings to the supreme elder", all the people present slightly bowed as they presented their respects, to the person inside the palanquin.

90% of the time, the ancestors aren't in the sect… no they aren't in Galatia, so the ones who act as the authority holders in the sect are the supreme elders, similar to the law enforcers there is one per each peak, and they are in seclusion most of the time, their only duty is to defend the sect if needed, or act as judges for the most important decisions and the like.

"Yawnnn… law enforcer Salazar proceed with the case", a soft feminine voice yawning could be heard coming from inside the palanquin.

That being said, just with that the whole outer ring trembled and all the core elders as well as Agnes had to use their spirit energy to keep their balances, the law enforcers on the other hand were able to resist without too much effort.

Salazar cleared his throat and then descended in front of all the others.

"As all of you already know, today our sect was blessed with the appearance of a genius, who not only fulfilled the requirements to get the status of core disciple from the very beginning, but he even did it with ease".

Out of all the people present there were some who were neutral regarding Salazar's words, the law enforcer Amelia as well as the green haired core elder from Green Sword peak and William.

There were others who were clearly unconvinced, the redhead Cristina and the law enforcer Ramon and lastly there were those who nodded in secret, in the form of Agnes and Valentina.

"Salazar don't tell me, you called us the four law enforcers just to discuss about that brat, who you actively supported to become a core disciple?", said Ramon with an angry voice.

Salazar smirked as he glared at Ramon.

"You can leave if that's what you want, but would you really dare to affirm that your time is worth more than the one of a supreme elder?".

Ramon's pupils suddenly contracted like needles, although the palanquin was completely sealed and had no apertures, he could feel a sharp gaze falling on his back, making him feel as if he was a small boat adrift during a hurricane.

"Don't put words in my mouth Salazar, what I meant is… you can always summon the core elders of the peak in which that brat entered, but why are you calling us, the law enforcers who are stationed in the other peaks and planets!".

Salazar suddenly grinned which made the Ramon had a bad premonition.

"That's exactly the reason, is so that you bring the news to the other peaks and to the core disciples and elders as well as inner disciples… Aster was officially declared the Holy Son of Twin Sword valley, and thus granted the right to kill whoever shows hostile intentions towards him or his relatives in the spot as long as he is within the territories of the battle peak, there will be a proper investigation if the situation ever gets to happen, but no one has the right to officially stop him, besides an ancestor of course".

"What!".

This time the reaction was collective, the tone of their voices was different though, some were happy, others were surprised and others were horrified.

Even the normally calm core elder of the Green Sword faction, slightly opened her eyes to reveal her unusual hazel eyes.

Ramon was trembling due to his anger.

"Y-You don't have the right to… what about the disciples from other peaks who visit the battle peak, what if they are attacked by that psycho on a whim!".

Cristina agreed with Ramon, she turned to see the palanquin and then exposed her opinion.

"Ruben told me that kid massacred almost all the participants of the third trial while the requirement was limited to half of the participants, supreme elder, I request you to evaluate the situation better, granting such a person the right to kill outside of the life and death arena might have horrible repercussions".

Agnes who was smiling from ear to ear, interrupted Cristina without caring about the fact that she was only an inner elder.

"Heh, why is elder Cristina omitting the fact that Aster only killed those who were blinded by greed, and united to attack him first due to the encouraging of a certain idiot who overestimated himself, he had enough time to kill the rest and strip them out of their points if he wanted to, but chose to not do so".

Agnes's words hit a sore spot for Cristina, the "idiot" she was talking about was the red-haired guy who endured fifty minutes of the second trial, the most talented member or clan's current young generation, and the first one in decades who wasn't able to join the sect, because he died, leaving a stain in their perfect record.

Once again, the atmosphere tensed up, with both Ramon and Cristina standing from their seats and exuding their spirit pressures, which were countered by Salazar and Valentina doing the same.

"This is my battle peak and the decision was approved by me, if you don't want your descendants to die, then tell them to not mess with that kid… the Lord of the Twin Sword valley, it is as simple as that, now leave, if you have any complains you can tell that witch from the Blacksmith peak to come".

The woman inside the palanquin gave her verdict in a soft and sleepy voice, but the authority behind it forced Ramon and Cristina to bow their heads, which made them grit their teeth and swallow their complains.

Then without saying anything else, Valentina and Ramon immediately disappeared making Salazar laugh.

"It's the first time I have seen those two flying as if there was a bone fire on their asses".

William who remained silent during the whole thing stood up and leaned his arm on Salazar's shoulder.

"To be able to fight head on with that kid one must be as strong as a Mortal Transcending realm cultivator and that is under the condition that what he showed during the trials is his limit… someone who managed get your approval can't be stupid enough to reveal his maximum capacities during a mere admission trial".

Salazar raised an eyebrow at William.

"Weren't you the one who told me that kid could turn the sect upside down, if he wanted to?".

William laughed as he let go of Salazar and used his token to leave.

"I might have confused him with someone else though".

Salazar was speechless, out of the four law enforcers William was the laziest and less responsible, but his background was a mystery, he literally appeared out of nowhere and was rumored to be related to one of the ancestors, similar to what other people thought of Agnes.

Ultimately Salazar shrugged.

"Whatever, that kid has what it takes to reach the peak of the Transcending realms in a couple of hundreds of years… with some luck he might even surpass the wall and enter into the Heavenly realms", mumbled Salazar.

His eyes lit up with expectation, a Heavenly Realm appearing in a stellar system within the last one thousand years was the last requirement needed for a stellar system to be recognized as a high ranked one.

…

While Salazar excused himself in front of the palanquin and left, at the battle peak planet, more accurately at the city which was located some kilometers away from the Twin Sword valley, Aster and the girls were about to leave the restaurant after enjoying their meal, when a dozen of people surrounded them at the entrance.

A guy who seemed to be about 18 years old wearing a black blazer with a red sword emblem and a girl in her late twenties in white clothes with a sword emblem ring came out of the group.

"Black hair and surrounded by a lot of women, were you the cheater who killed Daniel?", said the guy as he pointed at Aster.

"I killed about 17,000 idiots just this morning, you are going to need to be more specific", said Aster as he patted Kana's head, without putting much attention to them.

"Y-You!", the guy immediately got heated, but the girl stopped him.

"You recognize this ring, right?", she said as she showed her left index finger which was decorated by ring with a red sword emblem engraved on it.

But the answer she got was out of her expectation.

"Yes, you are a normal core disciple whose status is below mine", the ring in Aster's left index finger shone projecting a black winged sword, which immediately drew the attention of all the people in the nearby locals.

"W-Winged emblem, he is the one who passed the trials!", the crows started talking to each other, the rumors had already reached their ears, but no one besides the deacons knew where Aster was, as they all were minding their own business.
