Senior brother.

Roarke managed to get up as he stared at the white-haired human that kicked him away. He also stared at the others that he had fought with. He was furiously thinking about how he would get away in one piece, or at least relatively in one piece. Licht removed a green shard from the bracer, destroyed the shard in his palm, and threw the bracer back to Roarke.

"I am not interested in your petty toy. Here, I want to see how much my first student has grown" He said as he looked far into the crowd.

Everyone, from Regallas down to Fenrir, was confused. They all had odd looks on their faces. All of a sudden, they realized that someone, looking like a shadow, was pushing their way through the crowd. Fenrir emitted a low growl as he faced Regallas's direction.

"It's okay, Fenrir. He is a friend." Licht said softly.

Regallas looked at this shadow and instantly realized.

"Greetings, Prince" A husky voice was heard from within the shadow. Sloane took a while to think and when she realized, she yelled excitedly

"Senior Brother is here???"

A man in a dark cloak finally managed to come out of the crowd and walked to Licht. Upon reaching Licht, he knelt down and took off his hood.

"Midas greets Master"

Licht smiled and said "I see you did not slack behind during your quest. To be honest, I thought we were going to have to leave you behind"

Midas stood up and laughed "Not at all, Master. I had to hurry up so I could meet up with you guys."

He looked at the people behind Licht and saw the girl that shouted. He smiled at her and said "I see you also weren't idle, Master"

Sloane just looked at the tanned man with a chiseled, bearded face and short scattered hair. His black eyes felt like they pierced into her soul, even with the scar, she still felt he was the most handsome man in the world, excluding her master obviously. She was not attracted to him, but rather, just admired his handsome looks.

Midas turned around and faced Roarke, his expression now, was one of anger, his eyes were glowing green, and the miasma leaked from his being also glowed in the same green hue.

"You are the one that caused the twins pain. For that there will be retribution!!" He yelled.

The aura he emitted was that of the basic red rank, but the air felt stifled. Roarke couldn't move, and even though the pressure reaching the spectators was lesser, they still felt paralyzed.

"Have you heard the rumor of the necromancer they call Karma??" A random spectator faraway said.

"Yeah. It is said that he goes around liberating slaves and sucking out the soul of bad people." Someone answered

"Do you remember what the rumor says about his appearance?"

"Well, they say he always wears a dark cloak but his green eyes are visible from within. He also has a green fog that oozes out from him."

"You mean like that??" Someone pointed at Midas and then everyone screamed

"OH MY!!! HE IS KARMA???!!!"

Midas, for a moment, cringed upon hearing his new nickname but he still stared down Roarke who desperately wanted to run away, but could not move an inch. From within the green fog, two massive lights stared at Roarke, and as the pressure from those eyes bore down on Midas, a cold sweat trickled down his back. Roarke felt like he was to pass out, but he held strong. He wore the bracers once again and managed to shake off some of the pressure. The energy he took from his clansmen was restored back to him, allowing him to heal.

Licht stared at the two massive lights in the miasma and was really impressed.

"How did he manage to find the soul of a ---" Before Licht could complete his sentence, the crowd of spectators yelled

"DRAGON!!!!!!"

"IMPOSSIBLE!!!An Actual Dragon!!!"

A massive creature stood at over six meters tall with green scales and a pair of wings even bigger than its body. Its claws were as thick as an arm and as long as a man's leg. Its green eyes stared down at Roarke who was now scared shitless and shivering. All the energy within the bracers trickled out and his "human torch" form died out. He plopped down on the floor like a kitten that had seen a ghost.

Regallas, Sloane and Fenrir were dumbstruck looking at the dragon.

"Master, how did Midas get a dragon's soul??" Regallas felt it was not fair. How did Midas always get the cool stuff?

"Technically, that is not a dragon. It is a wyvern. Midas at his current power level will not be able to accommodate a dragon's soul. He would explode or probably be possessed by the dragon." Licht replied.

"Regardless, Senior brother is so cool" Sloane said with stars in her eyes, while Fenrir nodded too. They both looked like Midas' fangirls.

"I will not kill you." Midas said to Roarke. "I will let the twins do as they want with you, but these elders will die now" As Midas spoke, the wyvern faced the pile of elders and opened its mouth. "I don't think you have any problems with that, do you Emperor of the beast kins??" Midas said as he stared into an empty space which then slowly opened up to reveal an old man with wolf ears.

All the spectators knelt down and said "Greeting to his lunar eminence, Emperor Daello."

The only ones standing were Midas, Licht, Regallas, Sloane and Fenrir but Daello did not seem to care. He looked across and sighed "The young will surpass us"

He walked to Licht and bowed "Sir Licht, it is an honor to be in your presence"

Everyone was surprised as the emperor bowed to another person, showing the difference in levels and status.

"Ohhh?? I am guessing Priscilla told you about me then." Licht said with raised eyebrows.

"Yes. She warned me not to offend you and if I did, it would be the end of the empire that I have built. She also made it clear that even if you did nothing in the end, she would wage war against my empire, even if she would have to ally with the orcs. I see what she meant now. You are a magnificent being" Daello shivered as he remembered Priscilla's words. Regallas hid his face as he felt his teacher was too blunt, while Sloane nodded in agreement as she felt that was how it ought to be.

"I would have preferred that there would be no bloodshed, but I have tolerated this grudge for too long. Maybe death is the only solution, so I would not stop you, Mr. Karma" Daello shook his head as he looked away.

Midas sighed hearing the emperor call him 'Mr. Karma', while the wyvern spat out a green flame that burned the elders to ashes in a matter of seconds.

The twins were now already awake and they watched as the screaming elders burned to death. Then they walked up to Roarke.

"Please. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have given the order to kill your parents or banish you guys. Please, I don't want to die"

"Apologize to our parents in the afterlife" said Luna as she slashed while Solana thrusted. Roarke was beheaded while Solana held his heart in her hands, freezing the beating organ then shattering it.

"We have avenged you, mom and dad." They knelt down, as they cried once again. Sloane went in to comfort them. The spectators watched as they once again realized that these killing machines were just little girls that missed their parents. They felt really saddened by the scene as they shook their heads in pity and sighed.

"Sir Licht, do you want to come to the castle to rest and eat?" Daello tried to be hospitable.

"No. We will be leaving soon, but I see you have some success with space attribute energy so take this gift" He pointed his finger at Daello's head and sent him a technique for space attribute cultivation.

Daello looked at Licht and kowtowed as he thanked him profusely. The technique Licht gave Daello was not worth anything to him but to Daello, it was worth the heavens. It allowed him to attack with spatial tears and also to move through them if need be. The technique was called Rend.
