Chapter 9- La Teuer

Words : 1091 Updated : Sep 12th, 2025

Raffaelo's POV. I stared at the beautiful ceiling paintings in my room while trying to get some sleep. It wasn't as easy as I thought 'Hmm....who could have thought sleeping on a blanket on the ground would be this uncomfortable'. It was an inconvenience since my sisters somehow found a way to sleep on my bed without finding enough space for a 7th person. 'This is absurd...shouldn't the owner of the bed at least be sleeping on his bed...'. I could only complain to myself, though. *Raffaelo* I heard my sister's voice loud and clear in my head. Voice transfer.....the ability of mages to transfer their thoughts through words into someone's line of thoughts. It's a 4th tier spell that enables people to talk without actually having to move their lips. *yes...sister ?*. I replied to Fiona, slowly moving my body towards their direction. *don't move too much....* *...I won't...* *Alright....don't be too shocked with what I'm about to tell you...but above you...there's a person on the roof*. 'What? Someone managed to sneak up on me through the roof....I may be a 5th star...but that doesn't mean I'm unable to feel people's presence.....well unless they're far stronger and more cunning when hiding their presence' *Is Elder sister Gloria aware ?* *Yes.....she's unable to tell what he's doing...so we want to wait and see...* '...there's a man that could kill me above me....and they can't tell what he's doing....he's able to hide his aura from a master....I'm sure....this isn't an easy opponent'. I laid back, facing the ceiling as my lips curled into a smile. 'Guess I'll at least make it difficult for him...' I exerted my aura and blasted it around me, pushing it towards the ceiling. It exploded, causing a crack as debris fell to the location I once laid. "Why would you ?..." Fiona yelled out as she woke up her sleeping sisters. "No...it's much better this way...now we can face whoever is hiding..head on". Gloria said as she stretched her hand to the sky. "Ascend the thrones of greatness ! Magic bone". A blue glowing greatsword shaped like a canine tooth seemed to have fallen from the sky into her hands as she surrounded her aura around her. "Chapter 5 of the Jun Swordsmanship !". She took a step forward, suddenly appearing some few feet away, blasting any object that came her way in the process, and waved her sword with great efficiency at what seemed empty. "Humble surge". The strength of her sword and aura caused a refined flow of aura to suddenly strike out from her blade destroying anything that came its way. Of course, that included the walls and a part of the ceilings of my room as well. "That sword....." he pointed at the Sword that Gloria held. "It must be the famous Soul Weapon....a weapon that has formed a contract with your soul....Ke Ke Ke Ke" he chuckled. "He knows...too much..." Fiona said with a raised brow. "He does..." Gloria muttered in reply. The soul weapon is an exclusive skill of the Jun family as well as those married into the Jun family. A soul weapon is formed when a swordsman forms a contract with a spirit that forms their weapon. They say some kind of words that act as their activation code which summons their weapons. All activation code varies. "....we can't let you live," Fiona muttered, stretching her hand towards the Assassin. "We'll capture you and take every information from you". A lightning bolt began to form around the tip of her fingers. "5th tier magic: Lightning bolt". The lighting roamed around her increasing in size and power as it shot out towards the assassin. A loud explosion occurred destroying the rooftop and walls of the room. "Seriously....your powers are too absurd...shouldn't we just kill the lot of you !" The assassin screamed out as he jumped out from the shadows behind them aiming his blade towards Fiona. "Tch !". She muttered when Gloria appeared in front of her, swinging her blade towards the assassin. Their weapons clashed and the force pushed the man away. "You might not realize it but I wasn't the only assassin commissioned...." He chuckled as he swung his blade again, increasing the speed and force of each strike. "3rd tier magic: bind!" Fiona yelled, widening the palms of her hand. Vines of mana shot out from the ground and grabbed the man by his arm and his feet. "Huh ?" The man grumbled trying to fight back when he felt a stinging pain from his chest as blood splurged out of his body. "Aargh". He screamed out. Gloria pulled out her blade smothered in his blood as she stretched her fist towards his face. "Go to sleep". She punched him once, and he growled, unable to retaliate. 'Mere 3rd magic wants to stop me ?!'. He cried out, causing a sudden increase in the intent around him, pushing them back. He sliced off the vines, panting heavily as he glared at the two girls. 'This strength? Shouldn't her mana have been exhausted when she used that 5th-tier magic...isn't she a 5th-tier mage....what is going on??' "It seems you received misinformation..." Gloria said, lowering her head. "It would have been a bit of trouble if they sent someone stronger than you...but even amongst our people...we hide the depths of our power". "Shush! Gloria, that's not something you should be telling an assassin!" Fiona face palmed herself, sighing. Gloria stared at her flustered. "I...I didn't think there was an issue...since..." "Alright, Alright...you sword brains never reason sometimes". She muttered when they noticed the sudden change in atmosphere. "..wha ....wha....what did you just say...someone stronger than who ? Me? Don't make me laugh...." He chuckled abhorrently. " HOW DARE YOU ! I AM JAMIE LA TEUER ! I AM THE STRONGEST OF MY GENERATION !". He screamed out, blood rushing to his eyes. He laughed madly as his murderous intent grew stronger and wider. It turned black and mucky, slowly consuming him in this endless surge of evil. "You..I shall kill you all". He placed his right hand on his face, glaring at them through the small holes his hands presented for him.
