Chapter 182 182:Testing Water

CLICK!CLICK!CLICK!CLICK

Every clicking sound was followed by the dreary feeling of a life-threatening crisis.

Except for the clicking sound of buttons and the buzzing sound of changing channels, there wasn\'t any noise in the vicinity.

With bodies bathed in cold sweat pouring from their backs like a waterfall, the people who stood in the vicinity even forgot to take a breath in fear of offending the woman sitting on the sofa leisurely.

However, contrary to the lazy posture of the body, the expression on the red-haired woman was anything but lazy.

Staring at the TV that was showing no signal, the woman glanced at the watch.

"It\'s been five hours.."

"Milady, it\'s more than that.."

A man added but by the end of the speech, he suddenly realized what he had done.

His back felt chilly as many deadly stares locked onto him as if they wanted to drill a hole in his body.

The red-haired woman turned her fiery eyes at the group of servants standing at the back while bowing their heads, then she stared at the pile of broken mobiles beside her.

These phones belonged to the servants and were in perfect condition two hours ago but after checking everyone\'s phones, and seeing no connection, she directly crushed all of them.

Anyone with a glance could tell that she was like a volcano that could blow up at any moment.

"Leila, did you call the City Lord?"

A woman with magenta-coloured hair with a panicked expression stepped out among the crowd and spoke hurriedly as if her life was on the line.

"Yes My Lady, I have asked him about this."

"He said due to a problem, the Town isn\'t able to perceive mana signals so the TV and smartphone networks of the entire Town are down."

"Now what kind of bullshit is this? Why today? Out of all days, why did it happen today?"

The woman spoke with a deadpan expression while leaning back on the sofa.

"I…I don\'t know My Lady."

At the end of the speech, Leila swallowed her saliva while praying for God\'s mercy.

This was the biggest crisis of her lifetime as just now she lied.

How can she say that Master had asked them to jam the mana signal of the entire city so that Lady couldn\'t watch the live telecast of the Tournament?

All of them refused this at first but the Lord pleaded with them that this was a situation of huge crisis that may shake the stability of the entire nation.

His words naturally confused them as to how watching a live telecast led to the national crisis.

Nevertheless, after thinking for a moment, she realized just how big this natural crisis was. After all, the young Lord would be having a match and naturally be fighting against many.

All the news of the young master\'s well-being undergoes a round of filtering before being delivered to the Lady.

If the Lady saw the Young Lord getting stabbed, beaten or hit by an enemy, then no one was sure if that noble house would continue to exist the following day.

Moreover, as per the Lord, The Omen was going to attack the place so who knows what her reaction would be?

Thinking all this, beads of sweat formed over her forehead.

"Leila.."

"Ye...Yes,Ma....Mada...Milady."Leila for a moment stuttered in her manner to address her.

"Bring me that special communicator."

Leila wanted to refuse but she didn\'t have any guts so unwillingly, she went back and pulled out a black walkie-talkie-like smartphone, handing it to Her Lady.

The woman taking the phone, called a number.

RING!RING!.....

The call was disconnected after a few rings.

"Tsk!"

"Useless men!"

She dialed another number again.

RING...RING...RING...RING....

"Hello!"

"Ileana! Why isn\'t Kevin picking up the call?"

A cold voice emerged from the woman\'s lips.

"..."

Silence prevailed on the other side.

"Rude!"

"You dare to call Her Highness and His Highness by name?"

"Who do you think you are?"

"Vanessa...I am Vanessa Bright"

The sound from the other side ceased for a moment as the person who received the call felt that the name was a bit familiar.

"Now give her that damn phone and yeah, tell Your Empress that if she dont want to die or turn a widow at this age, quickly receive this call."

The woman who received the call on the other side suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

"Amy, who is this.."

A sweet pleasant sound emerged from the other side of the call.

"Someone named Vanessa."

"What?!"

A scream echoed as soon as the person spoke.

The loud sound of shaking echoed followed by the ragged breathing of a woman.

"Vanessa! Is it you?"

"How have you been?"

"What\'s going on with the tournament?" Vanessa cut Ileana\'s words in the middle.

Vanessa\'s question made Ileana choke for a moment.

"To...Tournament...It is going well. Why did you ask?"

"I am asking how my son is doing in the Tournament and yeah, is that idiotic husband of mine gone there?"

"That…"

"And.."

"Think again before lying. I am just an hour away from reaching the Capital."

It was then that Ileana, the Empress of Cyprus, welcomed one of the biggest crises of her life.

.......

RUMBLE!RUMBLE!

In a place far away from the capital,devoid of any human settlement.

Loud blast started to shake the world due to the torrential energy pouring out from two individuals facing one another.

The ground trembled, and the trees swayed, getting uprooted after being hit by terrifying shockwaves.

A Sonic boom occurred followed by the sound of thunder ringing in Amid the devastating bellows of the world, two figures clashed leaving behind images.

the ears sonorously.

Amid the devastating bellows of the world, two figures clashed leaving behind images.

Seeing the figure managing to dodge all his attacks, Frank got serious.

Frank eyes glowed with a bluish glint, and the world around him started to slow down.

The shaking of the ground, the fluttering of leaves, the quaking of birds, everything around him slowed down greatly except for him.

Raising his sword, Frank with gentle steps appeared before the big glasses guy and swung his sword aiming straight at the person\'s neck, however before his sword could touch the neck, Frank noticed something that gave him a great surprise.

Through the slowed time, Frank saw the person\'s pupils behind the glasses move and a crescent arc drew over his face.

The tip of the sword brushed past the person\'s neck leaving a small scratch that wasn\'t even life-threatening.

As Frank\'s image passed through the guy, time returned to normal but Frank\'s expression was quite solemn and turning back, he stared at the man\'s unfazed expression.

The man caressed the cut over the neck and licking the blood, gave Frank a wink.

"It\'s been a while since I got a scratch."

"As I thought, you don\'t interfere with the laws."

"What do you mean?"Frank raised his brows with a cold expression while raising his sword.

He attacked again using Time Dilation without giving Zod an air of relief but this time, the guy dodged the attack and came out completely unscathed, surprising Frank.

"Your bloodline ability doesn\'t slow down time. Rather it creates an area where the people of your choice have increased sensory input that increases the influx of information tremendously while allowing you to slowly assimilate them in your mind and then move with a speed unnoticeable to the naked eye."He spoke pointing at Frank with a provocative smile.

"As for why it is called Time Dilation, it is just to mislead, isn\'t it?"

Seeing Frank\'s distorting expression, Zod pulled down his glasses and wiped the dust on it, giving Frank a casual smile.

Frank\'s brows creased seeing the man\'s closed eyes.

"You must be wondering, how did I managed to dodge the attack at the last moment in your zone, isn\'t it?"

He then lifted his hand and pointed at the stiff-looking Frank.

"It\'s easy, cause once you decide the set of movements, you can\'t change the trajectory. It means once you initiate the attack, you have to follow that path and can\'t change the direction of your attack. If you initiate a path to move in a straight line before you cast your ability, you have to move in a straight line."

"As per how I knew all this, it\'s just that I am an observant."The man then bowed his head and spoke respectfully.

"Observer of nature, an observer of the beautiful creations of the world. This calm, serene yet chaotic world filled with mysteries at every step of life drew my attention."

"People who know me call me Zod, The Observer and this Zod is greeting The Northern Duke, Sir Frank."

"So, you are the rumoured one whom no one ever managed to lay a hit on," Frank asked, putting down his sword.

"It\'s a lie. How can there be someone that invincible? Didn\'t you wound me just now?"

"You took that willingly."Frank shook his head.

"Still, I got hit. Moreover, I was quite frail in my childhood. I was pretty much beaten up in my earlier days so to protect myself from getting beaten, I always try to dodge the attack."

"Initially I failed but later I heard about Frost\'s abilities that slowed down time by interfering with the laws of the world and this piqued my interest. I knew that the key lies here so I tried to research on laws."

"To understand the world, I studied physics laws with momentum, inertia and quantum. Then I started reading biology of the human body, the mystery of chemicals and the history of the world. I researched a lot to come up with a solution to never get beaten."

Zod paced to and fro like a teacher explaining to his students.

"That\'s when I found a way. That is to observe the way of the world, the way of the flow. "He then pointed at his closed eyes.

Frank listened carefully and found this babble quite interesting, but still tilted his head to the other side, seemingly a bit impatient to know the conclusion of the matter.

"You talk too much. In short, you observe everyone\'s movements and trace their flow in the world when initiated."Frank then turned his gaze back to Zod.

"Yes, you are right about that."

Zod with a mysterious smile opened his eyes showing his multi-coloured pupils.

"This...."

Frank\'s chest heaved up and down as he gasped the cold air heavily.

"I can see your perfectly carved muscles. Your trained armed shoulder and forearm muscles. I can tell which part of your body you put your effort into when training."

Zod placed his glass which made his eyes normal and pointed at them, he explained.

"I can see through everything and peer deep into the world flow and calculate the end of all motion with my all-seeing eyes called Virgus. This is the power I awakened."

"I can tell that you don\'t have the power to interfere with laws. It is really disappointing."

"My day is ruined. Just for your knowledge, there are no petty tricks for you that could be missed by these eyes."

Zod\'s words became louder and more pitiful, feeling a bit lost as he expected more.

Frank, who was listening with interest, suddenly felt a chill down his spine seeing those weird stares similar to a pervert looking at a girl.

Zod who shook his head in sorrow was suddenly interrupted by a large voice from afar.

"Damn! That\'s interesting. I want something like that!"Kai\'s surprised voice echoed from afar.

"Thanks for the praise." Zod spoke, a bit bewildered.

"Damn you sunflower boy, you dare turn your attention away from me."Shana\'s furious voice echoed.

"I am everything but a sunflower boy."Kai refused and engaged with the scarecrow that was hunting for his life.

Zod returned his attention to Frank and said,"I can see the minor movements in your muscles and predict your movements. Since you set your action before you begin your ability, I can react before you move. In a way, you can\'t defeat me."

"Hahahahahaha!"

Frank who quite a moment ago burst into laughter cracking his cool indifferent expression.

"This excitement."

"It\'s been so long since someone demeaned me."

"Hahahahha!"

A hint of madness shone in the eyes of Frank whose expression suddenly turned wild, scaring Zod.
