Sky Fall Legend 84 Ethereal Ring of Rah 2

"Freddy no!! You sick son of a… I mean… ahem, poor Freddy."

"Even the general may have a hard time with this young man!"

"Not a chance. Didn't you see what General Murphy did to the last negus brat who tried to swagger in our Black Heart City? He dug his eyes out and fed him to his combat souls."

"You make a point. Here in our Black Heart City, General Murphy is considered under one man and above ten thousand. Not only that, but he dared to kill Freddy Freddy. When Linda Freddy finds out her son was killed, what do you think will happen? This brat is doomed for sure.

Even Sigma was dumbfounded. How ruthless! How merciless! This boy was cutthroat and decisive, what a great little warrior! He found himself shocked at the abilities of Jodye. This kid knew such a powerful soul art? If Sigma's soul force hadn't broken through during this trip, this kid could potentially trick him into an early grave. Of course, this was if he was caught completely off guard. Otherwise, Jodye wouldn't be able to hurt him at all. Nonetheless, maybe the kid wasn't arrogant at all by looking down on the legacy Sigma created.

At least, his legacy wasn't tyrannical to such an extent. Even if it was one of the top 100 origin arts in the divine universe, it was only the ninety-first rank.

"Nice, kid." said Sigma with genuine admiration in his voice, before turning to speak to the crowd, "Anyone else got an opinion they wanted to share? We're all ears?"

Any other opinions?

Not a chance!

This brat who looked no older than 13 had just murdered a man by merely looking at him. No one here understood how such a thing could be possible, minus uncle Sigma who was next to Jodye. Even Sigma would never have imagined he would see a sophomore rank sage performing soul arts. This was crazy!

When he saw no one was willing to speak, or even breathe too loudly, Sigma put his hand on Jodye's shoulder, and Jodye felt his body jerk before he was suddenly on the main street again.

"Mr. Jupiter!"

Dessa Chimes and Aiken Moon appeared in front of Jodye while he was still attempting to gain his footing. He had only ever moved so fast once in his life, and the last time it was far faster and Jodye never even noticed being moved. This time it hurt a bit and he felt dizzy.

"Where the hell did you two get lost at? If I didn't have serenity force, I wouldn't have even been able to find you," Jodye Trill was frowning as he spoke to his two companions. However, to his shock there was suddenly an old man in black robes standing behind Aiken Moon. Jodye reflexively grabbed Aiken and moved the boy behind himself, before shouting out, "Who are you, old man?

"Oh?" The old man raised a brow at this cheeky brat in front of him but was caught off guard by the light in the boy's eyes that suggested more strength than the boy's aura would.

"Cassan, why are you here? Shouldn't you be guarding the shop?" Sigma Octanis suddenly spoke in a calm voice to the old man, causing the three youths to instantly look at him.

"With such rare seedlings in the city, how could I simply watch them walk away? Who knew you had already found them as well as quite the exceptional one," said the old man called Cassan. Jodye and his friends were flabbergasted as they looked at the adults that arrived with the opposite party. These two were acquaintances?

However, before Jodye and the gang could inquire about the situation, a loud bellow shook the streets.

"WHERE IS HE! WHERE IS THE DAMN NEGUS! ROLL YOUR ASS OUT HERE RIGHT NOW YOU TAR-SKINNED PUNK!"

Jodye Trill frowned and his rage felt bubbly like someone was shaking a soda can. Titanic rage force momentum rose around his body. He hadn't expected to be profiled because of his skin even after transmigrating to an entirely different culture. How lame was this? Jodye was suddenly in the mood to slaughter someone.

.

"What's going on over there? Is someone fighting?"

"Oh my, is that the new shop owner on the main street? He's so good looking I could die!"

"Isn't that the Generals Ian Murphy and Tsukisasu Shin?

"The general brought the mighty Tsukisasu Shin with him? That kid's done for now!"

"Big fight, there's going to be a big fight!"

"More like a huge slaughter! These guys are going to regret starting that fight from before."

.

"Hey big guy, were you looking for me?" Jodye Trill was actually less than 20 meters behind the guy who just bellowed outside of the pub with his lackeys in tow.

This man was nearly seven feet tall and had a very robust build. He and the companion at his side were wearing black combat raiments with the exact same design, a five-colored ibis. He looked stern and militant like a domineering leader. Jodye realized right away that this must be that General Murphy that the dead guy, Freddy Freddy, had mentioned. Standing next to General Murphy was another man, more than a head shorter, who stood as straight as a sword. He had a sharp, noble, and calm atmosphere around him, like a sheathed blade.

Jodye Trill felt more intimidated by the man next to the general than by the general himself. He didn't really place General Murphy in his eyes, but this other guy was indeed a little scary.

However, what really upset Jodye was that these guys didn't even have white skin. General Murphy wasn't more than two shades lighter than Jodye himself! Was there more that could identify someone as a negus than just their skin color? Or was this guy only an idiot?

Was it self hate?

Jodye sent over his divine energy and discovered the approximate cultivation base of the crowd of opponents through their energy fluctuations. Both of these men were at the peak of the True Saint realm, whereas the five or so subordinates that were with them were all early to mid-True Saint realm saint path experts with one Earth Science realm sage path expert. Merely, the man next to the general seemed to be far stronger than just a peak of the True Saint realm expert. He gave Jodye a very dangerous feeling.

In fact, Oulan Mercy hadn't even given Jodye a feeling like this! Of course, that could be due to the presence of his Sky Wolves. What was there for him to fear when he had those two abnormals around?

Luckily, even though Jodye didn't have his combat guardians, he had taken the initiative to make a reliable friend.

The brawny General Murphy was slightly startled as he craned his head over his shoulder to see who spoke. Once he saw Jodye, he immediately spun around as khaki force momentum exploded upwards from his body, shouting, "Trying to escape, are you?! Well, it's useless. Today you will die. Men, slaughter these imbeciles!"

"You should wait, friend. Best not do something you'll regret." Sigma Octanis was as calm as water when he spoke in his low voice that easily cut across all other sounds.

"This guy… he looks familiar for some reason." The man next to General Murphy raised a brow, and his hand lowered slightly towards the magic pouch on his hip. However, his movement paused when he noticed that the old man next to the negus brat had suddenly locked on to his aura. Who were these two hidden experts?

"Regret?" General Murphy laughed heroically, "I, Ian Murphy, will never regret the things I do or the people I kill! You lot have harmed my kin, therefore on behalf of my dear auntie I must slaughter you thoroughly!"

"You're kin was a spineless fool, who chose the wrong old man to antagonize. My little junior here merely intended to demonstrate some proper manners to the lad. Who knew he was so fragile?" said Uncle Sigma with a handsome smile on his face. Jodye could see some of the women in the crowd swooning. This Sigma was apparently a chick magnet.

"Fra… gile?… Demon..strate…" General Murphy looked dazed briefly before incomparable fury colored his face red! That was his baby cousin for god's sake! When they rushed Rocku over to his post, he was shocked to see this favored kin of his with a face that was distorted and akin to porridge. He had been killed gruesomely. Ian Murphy would never let this slide, "Men, attack now! Kill, kill, kill!"

All of the general's subordinates rushed out while launching attacks with their weapons! However, before Jodye could react, he felt a hand on his shoulder that suppressed his movement correctly.

"You be still. Allow this old Sigma to clean them up." Sigma stepped forward, and incantation runes manifested in the air and gathered around him in a spiral before condensing a doorway of pink light, "Serene Moon, Astral Mirror!"

This blew Jodye's mind all the way open! To form magic life incantation runes mentally was possible? Was he creating magic from a divine source? However, Jodye felt the fluctuation of origin energy. He immediately summoned [Pharaoh's Law] and activated his divine awareness. Cassan's eyes shined when he saw the boy summon his source artifact and observe Sigma seriously. Cassan had seen such source artifacts before, but he didn't expect to see one here on this lower plane. It seemed he was currently looking at a true young hero.

"I knew it!" To Jodye Trill's amazement, he could see Sigma forming incantation runes with his spiritual force. He could cast spells without chanting an incantation out loud! The origin energy was coming directly from his body! How wicked was that? Jodye had never even considered trying this before, but now that he saw it he realized it was utterly similar to the sorcery of Runic Masters. He felt it wouldn't be too difficult to understand how to do this, as using Rune Sorcery was T'Zhane's specialty. Jodye was determined to perform spells and even curses like this from now on.

He would be able to cast spells using only spirit power like Sigma! Or what if he managed to combine magic life arts with runic sorcery? What would be the result of that?

Suddenly, Jodye felt being this man's apprentice may not be so bad after all. By the time Uncle Sigma took five steps, the incantation runes communicated with the laws of the world to condense a pearly white disc that was shaped like a pink-silver full moon, with a front surface that would often become reflective like a mirror. Every attack fell through the mirror like divers into a pool, however only pure serene energy came out of the other side.

"Woah…" both Jodye Trill and Aiken Moon stared at this scene in awe. So this Sigma was actually so strong? As if they discussed it, both boys looked up in the sky in unison and discovered a sight they wouldn't soon forget. The origin qi phenomena had formed above Sigma's head in the form of 1,500 pink-silver marble sized light spheres that formed nine moon diagrams.

"His True Serenity Force alone is at 1,500 BP. He's not even using his origin energy. Didn't he say the curse suppressed his strength to less than one-tenth on this planet? So what level is he really?" Jodye Trill was merely impressed. However, Aiken had developed a certain level of worship for this man instantly.

"Mage rank, it's the mage rank, it must be an expert at the mage rank!" Aiken Moon had stars in his eyes as he watched Sigma absorbing the peaceful energy refined from his opponent's attacks. Sigma made a face like he disdained the level of this energy, and he suddenly withdrew an orb that absorbed it all for him. Aiken was shocked and just couldn't understand how such a thing was possible with serenity laws! Jodye Trill was less surprised on the other hand, as he had seen Eureka do something similar before without even using a magic tool. Besides, even if he didn't quite understand them himself, he at least knew the possibilities of many forces. Comprehension of energy couldn't be gained by studying the memories of someone else. Every person had to comprehend their own understanding of the world's truths.

"Is this all that you few can amount too?" As Uncle Sigma spoke more incantation runes formed in the air from his fused magic and soul qi. His Serene Moon, Astral Mirror spell suddenly split into six crescent moon blades that sliced through the necks of all the lackeys, causing a downpour of snow the color of blood. It was a gory but majestic sight.

Jodye decided that learning how to do this would be his number one priority once he learned more about spells and curses. After all, if it was possible with spell casting, then it was likely possible with curse sealing.

"This…" General Murphy watched his subordinate's deaths with intense fear in his eyes. He wanted to use these men to gauge the enemies strength, but who would imagine the enemy was so fierce that he would instantly crush them without even revealing his actual competence. How could General Murphy have not seen when this man exposed his 1,500 BP of force strength? This was something that he couldn't stand up too at all.

He glanced at his partner, only to notice him staring blades at the old man behind the negus brat and two others. This old man was equally unfathomable. General Murphy had assumed them to be akin to mortals before since he couldn't really sense their pressure, but now he thought differently.

He couldn't sense them because they far surpassed his level!

He suddenly regretted coming here, "Esteemed sirs, this humble one did not mean to intrude upon your outing. Please, just surrender the negus boy and excuse us."

"It's useless, Brother Murphy. They clearly don't intend to hand him over, or even let us off," said the handsome man next to General Murphy, an intelligent light flashing in his eyes. He had long black hair tied in a ponytail and thick sword-shaped eyes brows. This man was Tsukisasu Shin!

"Brother Shin, don't speak nonsense," General Murphy quickly caught on and tried to use their status to swagger away from this conflict. "We are still the military officials in charge of the outer district. To challenge us is to challenge the might of the Pharaoh King Thoth's thirteenth army division!"

"Indeed, no one wishes to challenge the prestige of his royal liege, the Pharaoh," nodded Tsukisasu Shin as if this was a matter of course. He was confident that once these two gentlemen realized they were no longer being targeted, then they would stop resisting. After all, who would be dumb enough to challenge the Pharaoh's army during martial law for a little junior? "Come with us to answer for your crimes, negus child! Do not implicate your seniors any further."

"Oh, so it's the two lieutenant generals assigned to preside over this district by the Pharaoh King Thoth's thirteenth army division?" Uncle Sigma crossed his arms and nodded as if it all made sense. The two lieutenant generals grinned at each other but frowned the next moment. Did he say, lieutenant? How is it he knew their exact rank? Before they could think further, icy cold qi momentum rose around Sigma as he continued, "Could it be you two are willing to attack a superior from the tenth division over your junior? Over a mere weakling that was killed in one punch by my own nephew? Sounds like grounds for a court-martial. Or perhaps I should just take justice into my own hands?"

"Ten… ten… tenth division? How… ah!" Tsukisasu Shin was startled before true fear donned on his face for the first time! He now realized who this middle-aged man reminded him of! "Heavenly Star, Sigma! You're the tenth division's previous Commander, The Eighteenth Star, Sigma Octanis!"

"Commander? Then… then…?" General Murphy was utterly unwilling, but he knew what it meant to be in the presence of a commander, even a former commander such as Sigma. Tsukisasu and himself knelt at nearly the same instant and proclaimed, "Subordinates greet Commander Heavenly Star!"

"Ah, no fun, you guessed it so soon," Uncle Sigma shrugged, and spoke imperiously. "Alright then, go ahead and scram back to your commander, tell him I'd like to see him."

"Yes!" both men stood at attention then crossed their chest in salute, before rapidly fleeing in the opposite direction.

"Hmph." Uncle Sigma grunted as he turned to face Jodye and his friends once more, "So this is the Moon brat, eh? Truly not bad indeed. Fine, kid, you give me this one, and I'll help you find what you need. You don't have to worry about his cursed fate seal anymore, Cassan will handle it. I can remove it from your little girlfriend as well."

"She's my subordinate, do not insult her rank and status as a warrior," Jodye Trill was calm through this whole ordeal, secretly shocking Cassan who had been scrutinizing him heavily. He even spoke with Star Master Dog so casually, "You can take the boy, but please remember he is already a member of my camp. If he accepts, then you would automatically become the elder of my camp. As for her... mn, do not worry I will arrange that myself."

"Hahaha, man I like your style, brat," Uncle Sigma laughed while patting Jodye on the shoulder roughly. Jodye felt like his shoulder nearly shattered. Sigma turned to Aiken and spoke confidently, "So what say, you boy? How about you worship this old Sigma as your master?"

Surprisingly, Aiken Moon's glowing eyes suddenly dimmed noticeably as he responded without emotion. "I'm sorry mister but if you truly don't mind…I'll pass."

"Erm…" Jodye Trill was speechless. Was this boy Aiken nuts?

Passed on again!

Poor Sigma!

Even Jodye never predicted such an outcome.
