Ancient Tears BloodLine

Official Ben finishes the short tour in an hour. Earlier, from time to time, the First Elder insisted that he should wait for a while so that he could understand the terrain better.

Now the tour was over, official Ben sighed in relief.

Official Ben flew towards the nearby station after exiting the monster zone. In a few breaths, he slowly lands near the entrance.

After setting foot on the ground, official Ben laughed and said, " Casey, I hope you had a good time by seeing our monster zone. Then don't worry about the papers. I'll get it signed as soon as possible."

Official Ben said it with a little bit of a laugh, like he is having a fun conversation.

First Elder smiled he can easily through his deception. But he doesn't want to break the ice now. So he answered, "Well, Thank you, Ben, for your guidance. We will meet soon. Until then good bye."

The First Elder politely uttered.

Official Ben nodded.

Then both of us parted their ways.

Official Ben went back to his office. While the First Elder walked towards the platform.

After parting ways, none of them had the same smile on their face. It's disappeared completely.

Official Ben wipes out his sweat on his forehead while going towards his office.

First Elder Casey expression becomes stiff. Because he notices subtle changes in Ben. He is sure that his friend is not comfortable talking with him.

Next Second, First Elder retracts his thoughts as he enters the platform area. Soon he finds the waiting area to sit.

There is some time left for the train to arrive. So he plans to sit and wait until the train arrives.

In meantime, he has some time to think his next course of action.

Time progresses,

When the train reached the platform, the first elder entered the coach and sat in his seat.

The other hand, Official Ben takes some time to fix appointments with his higher ups to discuss the First Elder's request.

( From MC Perspective )

It's been two days since I came back from Mountain Liz.

I think it's time to go back to the campus. These two days have been really good for me to calm down my pressure.

After having breakfast with my family, I left home early to board the train.

Two and half hours later,

I reached the campus. Unlike the last time, people's interest in me fades away a little bit.

I think it's something to do with Crimson Hall's event. Each and every faction will send their students to participate.

Hansen Campus has only me as their seed candidate.

So the atmosphere around here is a little bit tense. That's why the public seems to realize and turn back to normal.

Shaking my head, I retracted these unnecessary thoughts and walked towards Mr. Arthur's cabin.

It's actually become a daily routine for me to have some conversation with him in the mornings.

Like, I'm reporting my work to the superior.

Soon, I came to Mr.Arthur's cabin and informed him.

"Creak" the door opens,

As usual Mr.Arthur is working behind his desk.

While walking towards the seat, I greeted him.

Mr. Arthur nodded in response and told me to sit.

I smiled and sat in the chair.

"So, How is your training going?" Mr. Arthur asked with interest.

I nodded, Mr. Arthur knows my trip to Mountain Liz. So it's nothing surprising for me.

"No issue, Mr. Arthur. Everything is going fine." I said with a smile.

Mr. Arthur took a little bit back. He is really surprised that Zack didn't complain. Usually, he used to complain about something.

But this time there is some change. Mr. Arthur smiled and replied, " Well, then it's good for you. If you need something you can tell me."

I nodded in response. After talking about a few other things, I left his cabin.

Coming out of his cabin, instead of going to the Essence Chamber. I head towards the Gravity Chamber. I'm preparing for my body breakthrough. And the Gravity Chamber is the best place to push my limits.

There are six chambers. Level 3 is currently suitable for me. Last time, I plummeted to the ground by using it. But this time my strength is enough to withstand level 3 Gravity Pressure.

When I walked into the Gravity Room, students began to gossip about me. Shaking my head, I checked whether anyone was using the Level 3 chamber or not.

Seeing there is no one, I stepped inside and locked the room.

But Zack's action caused a chilling effect to everyone outside.

"Hey, What is Zack doing?" One of the senior students asked. He is one year older than Zack.

Seeing Zack stepping into the level 3 room. He is dumbstruck. But soon he realizes that it's a foolish move done by Zack.

So he sneered, "Looks like winning the Star tower competition has really gotten into his head."

His words reach few other fellows. Only a few students were inside the Gravity Room. All of them were standing in que to use level 1 & level 2 Gravity Chamber.

But seeing Zack's action right now made them displeased.

Another senior student, who heard his friend's word also echoed the same opinion,

"Only Trainee Warriors can use level 3 Chamber. He is seeking nothing but only a death wish."

By hearing two student's back to back words. Rest of the students laughed out loud.

But none of this reached Zack's ears. Even if it did, he wouldn't have cared.

After stepping inside I set the timer for 2 minutes.

I remember, last time I had set the time for 10 minutes later I got crushed to the ground.

So this time I will start from 2 minutes, step by step I will increase the time further.

"Whizz"

Next moment, the chamber turned on.

I feel huge mountain weighing above me. Inorder to withstand the pressure, I used both body strength and essence strength.

As the seconds went by, I crouched down a little bit.

It's better than the previous time, I can feel my muscle fibers being elongated. It also gives me intense pain from one end.

If I can reach the limit, it will give me the opportunity to break through.
