"You dealt with the Wysteria squad—now face the Lunaria squad," Grey said calmly, snapping his fingers as wind swords surged forward. The others charged in behind them. In an instant, chaos erupted. Grey's wind swords shot forward at tremendous speed, heading straight for the Executioner. In response, he conjured a black hole, sucking them in effortlessly. Charlotte followed up, launching about twenty dense water balls toward the man. He simply increased the gravity around them, forcing the orbs to crash into the ground and splatter. "Go!" Scarlet shouted, launching fireballs alongside her dragon. The barrage overwhelmed the Executioner, forcing him on the defensive. Sensing the rising threat, he gravity-stepped away, appearing as if he blinked. The attacks missed and scorched the ground for meters. He reappeared in another spot and compressed gravity around Scarlet, slamming her to the ground. Her dragon dispelled. But before the Executioner could finish her off, the ground beneath shifted. Dante charged in, earth swirling around his arm. "Greg, move!" Grey shouted. Lightning crackled as Greg dashed in, appearing in front of the Executioner and swinging a pure bolt of lightning. The man dodged and slammed a foot into Greg's abdomen, sending him skidding back. Dante came from the side, his earth-covered fist slamming into the Executioner's face. His head snapped back, but he recovered quickly and tried to headbutt Dante—only for a soft breeze to yank him back. Ten wind swords flew at the Executioner from Lyra, but he summoned another black hole to absorb them. Before he could react, water whips lashed out—but slabs of earth rose up in time to block them. Dante smashed the ground, shattering the slabs. Greg reappeared from the side, leapt, twisted midair, and slammed his leg into the Executioner's face, sending him tumbling. Whips of flame wrapped around the man's legs, restricting his movements and searing his flesh. "Yo! Eat lightning!" Grey yelled, snapping his fingers as a dozen lightning arrows slammed into the Executioner. Electricity crackled, locking up his muscles and forcing a pained grimace from his lips. "Eat my fist!" a voice barked from behind him—Dante. His earth-enforced punch connected hard, sending the Executioner flying again, shockwaves rumbling through the ground and air. "What… what is going on? The Lunaria squad is treating the Executioner like a rag doll? How?" Ryan mumbled. Though the pressure on him eased slightly, it was still too heavy to lift himself. "Don't forget about me!" Grey shouted, kicking off the air. A bright light surrounded him as lightning boots and gauntlets formed, doubling his speed. He rocketed forward and slammed his lightning-clad fists into the Executioner, crashing him into the ground. Bones cracked. Blood sprayed. Grey flipped backward and landed beside his teammates as they watched the Executioner slowly rise, blood staining his robe and dripping from his mouth. But a smile still played on his lips. "Is that all? A combined attack, all for what? A trickle of blood?" he asked mockingly. "Just shut the fuck up!" Dante roared, hurling an earth spear. It zoomed at the Executioner's throat, but he caught it mid-air and crushed it with gravity. "Is th—" he began, but a howl of wind cut him off. A tornado slammed into him, hurling him into a nearby building which collapsed from the impact. "Wait… I didn't do that," Grey said, glancing at Lyra in the sky and then down to the ground. A student stood there—bleeding badly. Green hair streaked with crimson, face smeared with blood and dirt, one hand mangled—Lex walked forward with an annoyed expression. "That was payback for you smashing me into a building," Lex growled. The Executioner tossed rubble aside and stood, blood trickling down his head. "Impressive! But you could've done more!" he snarled, gravity-stepping behind Lex and conjuring another black hole— S~eaʀᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bang! A brown-haired figure appeared in front of the Executioner, gauntlet crackling with lightning. "Peek a boo!" Grey grinned and punched the Executioner, sending him skidding again, blood dripping from his nose. A massive fireball flew in from behind, but was immediately sucked into another black hole. "Okay, I think I've played with you long enough," the Executioner said, clenching his fists. For several meters, gravity intensified, crushing everything. The students felt it instantly—as if mountains were pressing down on them. Craters formed under their bodies. Ryan twitched weakly. "I warned you to stay off," the Executioner muttered, raising the pressure on nearby buildings until they crumbled into massive boulders. Then, he lessened the gravity, causing the boulders to float above the students. Now, twelve giant boulders hovered above Grey, Ryan, the Lunaria squad, and even the unconscious. Grey twitched in anger, his head trembling under the immense force. "I'm sick of you all. You've stalled our attack, so if I'm to lose, I'll wipe out powerful support from the kingdom," the Executioner said, smirking. 'Damn! His magic is the worst matchup for me… I can't even move! How am I a captain if I can't protect my squad… or that dingus's squad?' Ryan thought, gritting his teeth. 'Crap! I knew this was a bad idea! I'm going to die a ridiculous death!' Grey thought, trying to summon wind—but the pressure dispersed it. 'I can't believe we're going to lose… right here, right now,' Scarlet thought, teeth clenched. 'Damn it all!' "Goodbye you all. I want you all to know that your efforts today managed to stop the war as I will be retreating back after you all get squashed." the executioner said and then with a snap of his fingers, the suspended boulders in the air accelerated forward towards the humans laying on the floor. 'Damn it! Someone help these kids!' Ryan screamed in his mind. 'Can't believe I'm dying for this kingdom… against my wishes. Curses!' Grey cried in his thoughts. "Sheesh. How useless can the new generation be?" a voice rang out. "Even a captain is helpless." Suddenly, the boulders stopped mid-air—it felt like time was paused for the boulders but no, it wasn't that… Underneath the boulders, shadows could be seen rippling around it as if it was a coating of some kind and then instantly, the boulders disappeared. Not broken, not shattered, not destroyed but gone as if deleted from existence A figure walked forward. He stood tall at 6'2", his lean frame sculpted by years of brutal combat and relentless training. His very presence bent the air—thick with mana, as if it stepped aside for him. Midnight-black hair flowed wild yet intentional, strands flickering violet under light—a side effect of overexposure to raw lightning mana. But it was his eyes that truly disturbed. One storm-gray—cold, calculating. The other—amethyst, glowing, with cracks of lightning dancing within. A jagged scar ran from his collarbone across his chest, faintly glowing with shadow runes—seals from past battles that pulsed when sensing strong power. He wore a deep blue battlecoat, stitched from monster-hide and reforged mana-thread, trimmed with metallic violet. The back bore the Lunaria squad's insignia—crackling with lightning bolts. He walked with calm indifference. But something felt off. "Wait! Who the hell are you? Why aren't you affected by my gravity magic?" the Executioner asked, sweat forming as he instinctively stepped back. "Huh? Are you using magic?" the figure asked, scanning the area. "Ohhh—that explains why these ones are down. Too bad your weak magic doesn't work on me." He shrugged and walked forward. Ryan, hearing the voice, forced his eyes open. The moment he laid eyes on the figure, a slight smirk spread across his battered face. "When did you get back, Kael?" Ryan asked, gasping for breath as if he had just run a marathon. "Just got back," the figure replied without even turning around, his voice calm yet laced with annoyance. "And the academy decided to send me out here to help clean up your messes." 'Who… who the hell is that?' Grey wondered, his eyes darting over the man again and again, trying to place him. 'He bears the Lunaria Academy's symbol… Could he be someone from the higher-ups?' "Now you," the individual said, his gaze finally settling on the silent Executioner, who suddenly regained his earlier composure. "You've just gone and pissed me off. Sorry, but I have to end this quickly." As he spoke, the sky darkened ominously. Rumblings echoed through the air. Looking up, streaks of lightning danced wildly across the darkened sky, crackling with fierce energy. Then, bolts of lightning began striking the ground rapidly—one hit the young man squarely. Suddenly, a demonic mask materialized over his face. An armor sparked to life, crackling with raw lightning energy. Lightning boots snapped onto his feet, humming with power. Finally, a long, blazing lightning sword formed in his hand. "Let me show you the true power of the Lunaria demonic student," he declared. With a thunderous bang that shook the very air, the ground cracked beneath his feet. Then, faster than the eye could follow, he dashed forward—not like the speed of light… he was the speed of light itself. ____ {A/N} A lil warning guys ???? if you don't have the heart or mind for OPNESS, don't read the fight between Kael and the silent executioner ????
