Chapter 119: The Elder’s Secret (1/2)

Chapter 119 – The Elder’s Secret

Unbeknownst to Calron, a tiny portion of his life essence had crept into the dark metallic bow when he continued to imbue it with his elemental essence when it was entirely depleted. Previously, Calron’s life essence might not have been that noteworthy, but after triggering his bestial heritage of a primordial bird, his life essence now contained traces of his ancestors.

It were those small traces that had activated the dark metallic bow.

Shit! Restrain yourself kid!

Ezkael shouted in a panic, as his soul power rushed into Calron, in an attempt to stop the dark bow from awakening.

*SCREEEEE*

A shrill cry of a massive bird echoed in the valley, and a faint dark shadow of a colossal bird appeared behind Calron. Within moments, bolts of black lightning started to dart around this mysterious shadow.

“This…”

The Elder gaped in shock when he saw the bird-shaped shadow behind Calron.

A shadow which has its own element! I cannot believe it, it actually exists. Only a weapon that once belonged to a primordial being has the potential to inherit such an ability. However, the fact that this boy managed to bring out the power of the weapon means that… he is the descendent of a primordial being!

The Elder’s eyes widened even further in shock once he realised this alarming point.

I hate my life.

Ezkael cursed in a depressive voice, as he guided his soul power to restrain the metallic bow and forcefully sent it back into its dormant state.

With this incident, the truth of the dark bow was finally revealed and Ezkael knew that from now on Calron would pester him until he disclosed the entire history behind the weapon.

“W-what was that?”

Calron blinked his eyes multiple times, trying to figure out what had happened with his mysterious bow. Unknown to him, a strange symbol had formed inside his pupils when the bow was almost awakened, but it had vanished the moment the bow was suppressed by his Teacher.

Teacher! Why did the bow react like that? And what is up with that black lightning? Teacher?

Calron sent his thoughts to Ezkael, but his Teacher was intentionally avoiding him.

Sorry kid, I have to run to the bathroom! It’s extremely urgent!

A hurried voice sounded out from the corner of Calron’s mind, as the Voice hid itself from him.

Bullshit!
