Chapter Thirteen: The Vow Under the Waning Moon

  At the moment when the sound of the tearful child's finger snapping echoed, a piercing scream that made people extremely uneasy resounded through the quiet streets!

  Tears' serious and concentrated blow had a hint of hesitation, and struck the magic measuring device casually.

  But before Seron's unusually heavy gaze, the magic measuring instrument didn't show even a slight change.

  They also didn't have time to consider whether it was a malfunction of the meter or not!

  Because at this time of uneasy and piercing screams, Liliana had already rushed towards the place where the screams were coming from!

  What's going on? What happened to make such a scream?

  Liliana ran directly towards an ordinary residential house not far away, because the scream started from there.

  Xing You, Xiao Qing, and Lei Zi immediately followed Liriana to that residential building!

  Cailon gazed at the figures of his companions slowly disappearing into the distance and let out a low growl: "Despicable!"

  Can only follow in the footsteps of Xing Yu and others, because even he can't predict what happened!

  When Serlon and others left, everyone around the magic force meter stall was discussing continuously.

  What's with that terrifying scream and those tears' powerful blow?

  In front of the magical dynamometer, two old men appeared, one of whom was an old man in a butler's uniform.

  He is Seron's butler, Rapes, a royal magician who has not appeared in front of Hoshi Yū and Namida for a long time.

  By Laplace's side was someone else Lilianna knew and respected just as well.

  A long white beard on his chin, withered skin but eyes full of spirit, he is the principal of Bellrose Academy, Embas!

  Ambrose looked at the magic dynamometer which had not changed a bit and was slightly surprised.

  "That girl who's about Lilianna's age, is she the existence that even you, Explosive Flame Rapese, fear?"

  "Even if it surpasses the sealed level of power designated for testing online, there shouldn't be a single reaction."

  Lapis' eyes, however, revealed deep incredulity: "Who told you that this magic strength tester had no reaction at all?!"

  An old hand with deep tremors gently touched the "unresponsive" magic force meter.

  As Lape's fingers lightly touched, in Embas' disbelieving eyes.

  This magical force meter actually turned into a powder that filled the sky with just a light breeze!

  That's Soten no Ko's casual one-hit kill!

  Lapis' voice was hoarse and trembling: "I thought she might be a Sealed Specified Level of power, but this girl!"

  Enbas gazed at the powder-filled sky: "Perhaps her strength is already one of the pinnacles of this continent!"

  These two elderly men had already vaguely sensed Soten no Ko's deeply hidden true strength.

  The tearful eyes of the two elderly people, at this time quietly followed behind Liriana and Sei Yū.

  Liliana finally arrived in front of this ordinary residential house. At the door, there was an adorable little girl who was only eleven or twelve years old.

  He fell to the ground, pointing at the pitch-black gate that seemed to swallow all light, his eyes filled with deep fear.

  Wanting to say something, yet opening cherry lips, nothing can be said!

  Cerlon, who was slower than Liliana and others by one step, slowly approached the large gate, with an increasingly uneasy atmosphere.

  Cailon spat out words that made Lieren and others guess, but unwilling to believe.

  "This is a bloody smell, or an extremely strong bloody smell like death!"

  Liliana took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and walked over slowly!

  As the student council president of Bellrose Academy, perhaps it's none of her business what happens in Bellrose City, but her sixth sense drives her to come here!

  It was what made her have to come here, and perhaps she could see the person she had been yearning to see, the one she couldn't forget.

  In front of the little girl who was being comforted by the small tent, Liliana came to the front of the big gate and finally caught a glimpse inside.

  Dark red blood became a luxurious decoration for ordinary houses. A silhouette of a slaughtered body appeared in front of Liliana.

  Xing You, who also witnessed the scene, couldn't help but almost vomit in front of the thick bloody smell and stark reality.

  Liliana and Tear were both pale-faced, only Seron's expression remained unchanged, as if he had seen it all before!

  In the pitch-black house, in the blind spot of vision, a black silhouette burst through the roof of the civilian house at an extremely fast speed!

  This remnant shadow actually tried to escape in front of Xing Yu and others!

  Liliana, Seron and Hoshi Yuzora shouted in unison: "Don't think about escaping!"

  Wanted to intercept this "murderer"! However, there was one person who was faster than the three of them.

  It's Soten no Ko!

  At the moment when there was movement in this dark shadow, Luffy had already locked onto this one dark shadow!

  In front of Liliana, a raging tornado burst through the roof of this residential house and struck directly at the black shadow that was trying to escape.

  But a blow belonging to Luffy was unexpectedly parried with ease by Gin's subordinate, who knew of Luffy's true strength!

  On the remaining roof, under that broken half moon.

  A man wearing a black magic robe with nine crescent moon marks appeared in front of everyone.

  His right hand was still inserted in the pocket of his magic robe, with a hint of crimson in his pupils, he looked down at Liliana and others with pride.

  Judging from his appearance, he might be only a little older than Luffy, maybe 19 or 20 years old!

  This man actually blocked the tearful Zilei from leaving that one who was very likely to be the murderer!

  Tears fell unconsciously in front of Xingyou and others, shouting orders loudly.

  "Get back, all of you! He's not an opponent any of you can handle!"

  Since being summoned to this world, Soten no Ko has been so serious for the first time!

  Both hands did not form a first-time clap, but instead joined together in prayer, and the fierce wind howled instantly!

  "Flash! Eight Trigrams!"

  In Sei Yū's memory, Sōten Ryokotsu was the first time he used his own technique in front of him!

  Eight directions, eight swift wind blades that even Xing Yu and others couldn't catch a glimpse of the trajectory, instantly slashed towards the figure standing in the room!

  But this young man had only pulled out his right hand, what kind of right hand was this.

  This is a right hand as disgusting and terrifying as a demon, and the young man finally opened his mouth to whisper!

  "Dark Shadow Magic, Shadow Devour!"

  From that demonic right hand, countless black dark tentacles sprang out and swallowed the eight wind blades that split everything with unparalleled accuracy!

  Xing You couldn't believe it, someone was actually able to block Soten no Ko?

  That means that this man standing under the waning moon, with an extremely cold demeanor and a devil's right hand, is an existence of LV5!

  Satenashi finally realized that she had underestimated the people of this world, and it was only a small city in a mere kingdom.

  Is there such a terrifying existence?

  Satenashi stared at this obstruction that blocked her one blow, letting the figure who should be the killer's accomplice escape, a profound and unfathomable man.

  "Who are you?"

  This is a question in everyone's mind, who exactly is this extremely terrifying man?

  However, this man did not understand the meaning of the crowd here, including Soten Ririko!

  This man with a pair of eerie, slightly crimson pupils had never left one person's side, and that person was Liliana!

  This man with an exterior that looked incredibly cold was actually sighing, and he was sighing because of the girl in front of him.

  "I never thought I'd run into you here, Lilliana Chris!"

  Liliana gazed up at the black and white sky in disbelief, unable to hear any sound, as all the noise disappeared with the gentle breeze.

  Gazing at this crescent moon alone, I have been chasing that deep and profound shadow carved in the depths of my soul!

  Liliana's eyes had actually produced a hint of dazzling fluorescence under the moonlight.

  The face is filled with deep thoughts, and the voice trembles uncontrollably.

  In front of all those who cannot understand, spit out those two words that make them unable to believe, those two words that are unthinkable no matter what.

  "Brother... brother!"

  Xing You, Xiao Qing, Sai Long, including Lei Zi, are all impossible to understand and believe!

  The man in front of her, who couldn't even get a tear drop from her, was actually Lilianna's brother?

  Cerlon had investigated Liliana's background, and indeed she did have a brother.

  But five years ago, his brother, Zhu Yue Kris, wasn't he already killed by Bayers with his own hands, the strong man designated by the Kranston Empire's seal? This is the information collected by the intelligence department under his command, Hurricane!

  Liliana's brother slowly lowered his head, filled with deep self-derision.

  "Brother... brother? Do I still have the qualifications to be your brother?"

  He inserted his devil-like right hand into his pocket and gazed up at the lone crescent moon.

  He also remembered the vow he made in front of his sister under this crescent moon.

  But now he has already stepped into this "world" like an abyss, and he is no longer qualified to call himself Liriana's brother.

  Zhu Yue, Chris slowly turned around and left, for when he stepped into the dark side of this world, he was already destined to be lonely.

  Filial affection is a luxury he doesn't deserve to enjoy.

  With a right hand like that of a demon, can I still be called human?

  But Zhu Yue Krisna's figure, who was about to leave, froze at Liriana's loud confession!

  "No matter what you become, you are my brother, the only brother! Brother, do you know? I have joined Bellows Academy and became the student council president of Bellows Academy. I led the academy to win third place in the Kingdom Academy Exchange Competition!"

  "This year, I am still looking for a partner like you by my side. I firmly believe that I can make Bellrose Academy the first in the kingdom, and even the entire continent! Brother, I will definitely be able to do it! So I beg of you, brother, please don't leave!"

  After five long years, Liliana, who had been speechless all this time, finally saw her own brother, the only brother she had.

  But he couldn't stay, that brother who had no turning back, that brother who stepped into the dark side of this world for himself!

  Zhu Yue, Chris didn't say much more, but the devil's right hand grasped tightly in that pocket betrayed him.

  Because his sister still remembered the vow made in their childhood, like a joke.

  He is now gone, with no turning back, and in front of Liriana's reluctant face, he finally disappeared under that crimson crescent moon.
