Kael and Lance went to Noah to see if he was alive and Lance checked his pulse. He was still breathing and his pulse were still active. Kael and Lance, both took a breathe of relaxation and carried him out of the cave.
Lance provided him first aid and waited for him to wake up.
After few hours, Noah opened his eyes. He found himself laying infront of the cave with no one around. He looked at the blade and his wound and remembered the situation he was in.
He thought,
Kael and Lance must have helped me but where are they both.
Suddenly, few tiny stones fell from the above and he looked above and saw that Kael and Lance, both were having hand to hand combat with each other. At first it looked like a serious fight but Noah realised that both of them were just passing time.
Kael, Lance, thank you for helping me!
Noah screamed to them because they were way too above for a normal intensity of voice to reach them.
Kael and Lance looked at Noah and felt like a heavy weight got off from their shoulder. Both of them came down and asked together,
How are you feeling now?
They looked at each other's face and gave a smile. Noah said,
I am feeling okay and thanks for saving me.
Saving you? Bandaging you was not a big deal.
No, I mean, saving me from that big Riot.
Wait, we thought you were the one who took it down?
Me? No, I was getting my ass kicked by it pretty badly.
Then why the hell were you sitting in such a cool pose and why there was no Riot?
Noah was confused after listening to Kael's words and suddenly felt like something was going on inside the alternate space created by his blade.
He closed his eyes to see and found that the Alpha Riot was slaying down all the normal Riots in the space. At first he was confused about how that Alpha Riot was able to enter that space. He kept thinking and then his head started hurting.
Ow!
He grabbed his head. Lance said,
Don't push yourself too much for now. You barely survived.
Lance and Kael, both of them decided to rest that whole day in the cave for Noah to recover back.
The day passed and the night came. Kael came to Noah and asked,
Where are the dead bodies of all the Riots you hunted?
Oh, I didn't kill any Riots as I told you that I do not have any offensive skill.
So, where the hell do they went?
I have them in my alternate space but they all are dead now.
Alternate space? dead? What the hell are you talking about.
It took some time for Noah to explain it to both Lance and Kael.
So, you are saying that you can create an alternate space where you can put anything using your blade and in that space, time is very fast, one day here and a billion year passes there, so the dead bodies would be turned to nothing now?
No, time do pass very fast in my alternate space but nothing changes in those who stay inside my space. They will not feel hungry, they will not feel thirsty, they won't age but to them, a billion year in my space would be like a normal billion year.
In simple words, Noah's alternate space worked in a manner where 1 day in real world is equal to 1 billion year in his space but despite that, anything which enters his space does not age, does not feel thirsty and hungry but the loneliness one feel after being alone for so much time can be feel inside Noah's space.
How the hell did the rest die then?
Well, when I came to conciousness, I felt the Alpha Riot inside my space and when I looked it into, the Alpha Riot was massacring all the riots because it was just bored.
Lance further asked an interesting question,
Say, If I train in that space, will my skills and power improve?
I do not know as I never tried it and Voidran restricted me to even try it because it was too risky.
Tsk, what a shame.
Kael further asked,
Can you open that space and let that alpha come out? I am feeling hungry.
Noah did as Kael said, he opened a crack and the Alpha Riot came running out of the crack and attacked Kael but before it's paw touched Kael, it was roasted midway by the heat unleashed by Kael.
Noah was able to protect himself from the heat by simply making a tiny black hole and letting it absorb it and the heat didn't affect Lance.
All three of them ate the meal and had a small talk.
Noah asked,
Um, If you both are acquaintance then how did you meet each other?
Kael answered,
Well, that is a very complicating story, wanna hear?
Yeah, why not.
12 months ago.
Kael had formed a dragon pact in his first week in the dragon realm and whereas Lance formed the dragon pact in just two weeks.
Kael was hunting all the trainees down and the reason, it was still unknown. In his search, he came to the place where Noah was staying with Voidran and massacred all the trainees and engaged in the battle with the twin sisters and killed them too.
Kael was bored, pretty bored. There was no one who could match his strength so he decided to hunt down the dragons.
He went on his search and after searching for two days, found a dragon who was training a trainee. Kael burned the trainee to ashes in just couple of seconds and said to the dragon,
Fight me, fight me if you want to live, dragon.
The dragon became furious and roared at Kael,
GAHHROAAAAARRR!!!!
The dragon tried to smash Kael into the ground using it's right claw and Kael grabbed it using his left hand and from his right hand launched the Fire Tsunami.
The dragon formed a wood wall infront of it to avoid it but the wall, it burned down too and the dragon had to go into the sky to escape the Fire Tsunami.
Kael grew wings using his element and went towards the dragon with full speed.
The dragon opened it's mouth and a golden beam came out of it. Kael pointed his right palm towards the beam and large amount of fire went towards the beam from Kael's hand but was not enough to stop the beam and got obliterated by the beam.
Kael barely able to dodge it and the ground below him turned to wood from the strike of the beam.
Ohh, I could have been turned to wood if it would have striked me.
The dragon came on the ground and so did Kael.
Kael engulfed both his fists with fire and charged at the dragon. The dragon kept noticing his movements and Kael punched it but the dragon dodged it and Kael's punch touch the ground and fire erupted from the ground.
It was one of Kael's technique, Eruption Fist.
The dragon swinged it's tail on Kael and Kael grabbed it using his hands and started burning it but suddenly, the tail turned to hard wood and spikes came out of it which pierced his left cheek.
Kael back off a little to maintain a distance.
The dragon said,
Foolish human, I shall be the cause of your death even if it cost me my life. I shall reshape your destiny and make this ground your grave.
Kael replied,
We will see who's destiny gets reshaped and who get the last laugh, foolish dragon!
Right after finishing his sentence, he jumped at the dragon and formed a battle axe using his element and striked the dragon but the dragon dodged it again and striked Kael with it's spiky tail.
The strike touch the Kael and he was smashed into the trees at his right side.
He also got wounds from the strike of the spikes.
He became furious and screamed,
I SHALL SHOW YOU THE DEATH DOOR, FOOLISH DRAGON!!
Right when he screamed, fire erupted from behind him in large amount and in the next second, the whole surrounding behind him burned to ashes.
Kael increased his speed and attack power and charged at the dragon. He was not fighting the dragon using his full power.
The dragon again attacked with the golden beam and Kael attacked with the Fire Tsunami and the golden light was obliterated this time.
The dragon realised that Kael was dangerous so it thought of becoming defensive. The dragon made it's body hard using it's element and grew spikes on it.
Kael used Eruption Fist and striked with both his fists. He launched hundrends of fists on the dragon but despite that, he was barely able to give any damage to the dragon.
The dragon grabbed Kael with it's mouth and came the golden beam which passed through Kael directly. Kael had a direct impact with the golden beam.
Dragon said,
I told you, foolish brat. Don't blame me for your death in hell.
Was that the best you could do, foolish dragon?
The dragon was startled and shocked at the same time to hear Kael's voice because Kael had a direct impact with the golden beam which should have turned him into wood but he was fit and fine.
Kael had engulfed his body with flames and those flames turned to wood and saved Kael.
You are dead now, foolish dragon.
He summoned his weapon which he got from his dragon's remains after forming a dragon pact, the Burning Sycthe.
The dragon striked Kael with it's sharp and enhanced claws and Kael striked with it's Scythe.
Kael's scythe had the crimson color and it looked really beautiful and evil at the same time.
The dragon's right claw and Kael's scythe had a direct impact and the dragon's right claw was cut into two pieces.
The dragon was confuse about how Kael was able to do that and Kael, he jumped at the dragon and swinged his Scythe in the air infront of it's face and in the next second, the dragon's head fell on the ground.
See, as I said. Now don't resent me in hell, foolish dragon.
Kael said with arrogant voice.
Kael could have took it's element but he just didn't like the wood element so he let it go for some lucky trainee.
He was just about to go from there but sensed something, he heard few footsteps and a voice.
The voice said,
I do not know what you got from killing an innocent dragon, but I know something that if you are going to hunt another, then I'll be the one to stop you, murderer.
Kael looked behind and there was standing a guy of his age.
Kael asked,
Who are you and who gave you the right to be a judge?
I am nothing more than your end.
You talk too much for a complete stranger.
Whether I am a stranger or not, but if you are thinking of hunting another innocent dragon then I am your end.
Kael launched his Fire Tsunami on him and he neutralize it using his right palm alone.
Kael said with a happy voice,
Ahhh, I finally found someone worthy to fight.
Hmph, this someone worthy is your end, murderer.
MY NAME IS NOT A MURDERER BUT KAEL!
Kael said those words and charged at him with full speed with joyful expressions.
AND I AM LANCE, YOUR END!!
Lance said those words and charged at Kael with full speed and cold expressions.
Lance was wearing brown-yellow gradient gauntlets on both his hands, he obtained those guantlets from the remains of Rex and their fists collided and a large impact occured which destroyed all the trees in their surrounding.
