Chapter 242: Lured Into A Trap?

It was unnecessary to know the real size since the Cadet’s life was only between a small area of the place and there was no reason to walk too far away into the wild of the place.

About three kilometers from where the middle area of the EIA training base, two figures could be seen, the frigid white moon casting its long shadows on the ground.

“Fast. How can he be so fast…” Ethan found himself asking that question multiple times as he occasionally turned back as he ran seeing the young man still quickly closing in on him with horrifying speed

He had asked for a power increase from the cult almost five times now, increasing his speed to five times what it should normally be, yet the young man was still on his heels.

Just 100 meters more…

Ethan mumbled as he increased his speed even more. Even though his body was slowly tearing apart due to the energy coursing through his veins. He had no choice but to run.

BANG

Jumping up into the air, his body blasted through the air, as he rapidly closed in on the distance, already sensing the familiar aura in the distance.

“Phew…” He breathed out a sigh of relief as he turned behind him to look at Zeras, only to find a voice whisper into his ears from behind, the hot breath turning his ear red.

“You’re fast, I’ll give you that!”

“What the! You…”

KABOOOOM

A shrill scream like that of a pig being slaughtered echoed throughout the entire place as Zeras appeared an inch behind the young man, his hands coated in blue scales as he twisted the young man’s body to him before punching forward.

BLERRRRGGGGHHHH

Blood immediately blasted out of Ethan’s mouth, his eyes becoming completely red as he was sent flying with thrice his maximum speed, slamming into the ground below.

A shockwave erupted in the land as the ground for miles was blown into nothing while a singular path more than two meters wide appeared on the land disappearing deep into the forest. Any unlucky beast present in its path was blown to paste and gore as they violently exploded with a bang when they came in contact with the shockwave.

Ethan came to rest at the end of the carved destruction, his back to the ground as white hair puffed out of his mouth.

Zera’s eyebrows furrowed before a glint flashed in his eyes as he kept walking forward. Coming to stand before Ethane just 15 meters away, he looked interestingly at the strange tattoo on his neck, his smile widening to his ears.

“So that was it. You were borrowing power using that tattoo. No wonder you ran so fast and also got protected by the strange barrier. Truly interesting…” Zeras mused continuously to himself.

When he punched at the young man, he noticed a strange dark barrier suddenly coat his body at the last second defending him from his attack that should have normally reduced half of the young man to paste.

White air puffed repeated from his nose as Ethan slowly stood upright, a bottle of water appearing in his hands a second later as he took large gulps of it before flinging the bottle to the side.

“Goodbye…” That was his last words as he turned and walked away into the distance.

“Uh?” Zeras raised an eyebrow chuckling evilly as he moved a step forward but didn’t put it down as he looked at the five shadows that appeared ten meters away from him.

They were beings with unknown forms due to the dark robe covering all their bodies.

Out of the five, one of them, the one in the middle was incredibly familiar and Zeras immediately sensed him to be the one that first came to him in the first place.

‘Tch, I fell for a trap!’

“We meet again, Zeras Celestria…”

“Bastard cockroach. You truly survived in some way didn’t you?” Khan asked with a smirk sensing the body’s twitch a little.

“You have been allowed to join us and obtain great power. But you’ve looked down on the master’s benevolence and dishonored him. You deserve death!”

It was like some sort of declaration speech that made Zeras raise an eyebrow.

“You have to be kidding me. This is the EIA base, the death of a student is gravely Forbidden and you’ll be all screwed if you do that…” Zeras said completely unbothered.

“Oh, isn’t that right?” The voice rang out from beneath the shadow mask.

“And also aren’t you afraid the EIA would sense is due to the disturbance?” Zeras asked with a curious expression.

“The EIA won’t be able to sense anything, at least not for the next ten minutes. Not only is this place incredibly far away making it impossible for the EIA to pick up on quickly, but a dark veil has been cast that makes it impossible to sense what is going on here even if they are all looking in this direction.

The master has ordered your death! Irrespective of what the EIA…”

“So we’re basically ‘unseeable’ right now. Ah, how comforting…”

“Huh?”

They were surprised as they expected him to be quivering in fear fromth thought of his death, but the young man seemed relieved instead.

“I’m pretty sure of I kill you all, it’ll only remain your so-called master right? And then my dorm room would be once again secure like normal. And now I’ll be doing just that. Truly convenient…” Zeras said out loud.

If there was a thing Zeras was incredibly secretive about, it would be letting the EIA know about his true strength. He had always tried to act as every normal student reducing his strength to the acceptable norm of the organization.

That acceptable norm won’t be able to defeat the five people in front of him and he would have to go all out which might make his secret revealed. But now hearing of the barrier.

Then he had nothing to worry about which could only mean one thing…
