The Legend Of Lyan 2

Mysterious Presence

The Zemus that disappeared earlier after getting an order now appeared in front of the magnificent building, where Astaroth lived. He stroked his beard for a moment before saying, “Joe..”.

Suddenly a pale-skinned man appeared behind him. “Hamba here, Mr.”

“We'll catch a little mouse soon. Bring the 10 strongest people from our tribe to come with me.”

“Good, Mr.”

Joe then disappeared. Zemus looked up at the night sky while stroking his beard back.

Yuna could not concentrate on recovering her inner strength due to worrying about the condition of Youl. After seeing Lyan finish channeling some profound energy into Youl, he immediately approached Lyan and asked, “How is the state of Youl? Is she okay?”

“He's gone through a crisis. He will recover soon..”.

Yuna could feel some doubt in Lyan's tone. Seeing that Youl was still lying weakly there, made the woman recall Light's words while on the bleachers of the dark continent tournament.

‘If Youl use wrathful tiger mode once again. Worst chance he'll have a disability.’

‘No, Youl will be fine.’ Yuna shook her head quickly, hoping that what she was worried about did not happen.

While Light who was sitting cross-legged to recuperate slightly opened his eyes, paying attention to Lyan and Yuna. His gaze then turned on Youl and his memories while training the combat tiger while on Skull Island appeared.

There was one moment where Youl managed to surpass his limits when using the wrathful tiger mode. That power could even injure Light even though back then Youl was only at the mid stage sky energy power level.

Light thought of it as an imperfect ‘awakening’ because that moment only happened once at the start of training on Skull Island. Light slightly hoped that Youl could resurrect his hidden ability perfectly. But in reality using the wrathful tiger mode continuously was not a good thing as the blood flow in the body of Youl started to flow irregularly.

Light began to reduce the portion of the Youl exercise to use the wrathful tiger mode. From once a day to once a month. But after seeing the entire body of Youl begin to turn blood red when it enters wrathful tiger mode, Light immediately stops the training as it feels it will threaten the safety of Youl.

The resurrection may have happened by chance. Light felt he should not have trained Youl to use the technique.

When he was about to concentrate again, Light was slightly startled as he felt a large amount of gripping aura start to approach them. He immediately opened his eyes and looked at Lyan who was nodding at him with a tense expression.

Seeing the look on Lyan's unusual face, Yuna was confused. “What's up, Lyan?”

“Yuna, immediately take Youl away with you.” Lyan looked at Yuna seriously.

“What..?” Yuna still did not understand what was happening. However seeing Lyan's expression looking at him seriously without blinking, made him close his teeth and immediately saw that Youl stood up.

It was only after a while that Yuna was able to understand the reason for the tension from Lyan's face. Several people appeared from all directions surrounding them.

‘Since when... I can't even feel the aura of their presence.’ Cold sweat begins to fall soaking Yuna's temples.

Lyan was even surprised to not expect the aura that was felt before had now been right in front of them.

The people who floated around them had pale looks as well as flat expressions. Their presence exerted considerable pressure, Light immediately got up to his feet. A machete suddenly appeared before him.

“Do not let your guard down. They are different from the Tree Devil we faced before.” Seeing the movements of a mysterious group of people that were as fast as lightning could reach the place of their existence, Light was sure they would be harder to deal with than the Tree Demon.

Lyan agreed with his teacher. He was about to use his special form of transformation back, but he failed. Only a stage one transformation form did he manage to use.

“We must leave this place immediately after creating space.” Lyan said to the others.

“I think it's impossible, Lyan.” Light said so after seeing an old geezer and a pale-skinned man hovering behind one of the people surrounding them.

Light could feel the strength of the two people far surpassing those who surrounded them. Especially the old man who stroked his beard. He must be the leader.

‘It's bad. The source of power from every weapon I have used. I can't use the Sun Man form at the moment.’.

Lyan understood Light's intentions as her eyes fell on the two figures her teacher was talking about. He's back to teeth.

“So... You are the rats that have finished off the Devil Root?” Zemus watched Lyan and the others with a trivial look.

“Who are you?!” Lyan shouted at Zemus.

Zemus just stroked the beard. His forehead was slightly wrinkled when analyzing the abilities of Lyan and the others. In any case he did not see any chance they could defeat the Devil's Root. “Is it true that you guys have finished off the Devil's Root? Or... is there another mouse hiding?”

Lyan brushed her teeth. Zemus' words had already made him even more certain that they were the target of the target.

“Yuna... immediately take Youl away with you after you see the opportunity. Do you understand?” Lyan said to Yuna.

Yuna did not see any chance they could overcome the situation this time around. But he couldn't let Youl get hit by the fight. That would make the combat tiger's condition even worse.

With a heavy heart Yuna could only nod approvingly to Lyan's words.

Lyan smiled faintly. He then looked towards Light. Both nodded before drifting upwards. Their eyes were on Zemus.

“Now, Lyan!” Light unleashed his strongest slash of machete towards the person in front of Zemus, a fierce energy wave instantly created and quickly shot towards the old geezer.

“Good, Teacher!”

Lyan immediately gathered strength on his right hand which started to splash fire. He then exclaimed loudly when releasing the punch.

“NUCLEAR PUNCH!”

Zemus only gave a small smile before the two devastating attacks hit one of his men.

Sometime after the two devastating attacks were released, Light suddenly vomited blood with his body torn to shreds.

“GURU!” Yuna shouted out loudly when she saw Light fall down with a body drenched in blood.

Lyan's eyebrows shot up watching the incident. “A-what just happened..”.

“LY... LYAN!” Yuna's screams were heard again. Sontak makes Lyan who is still stricken with confusion turn her eyes on the woman.

Yuna seemed to be closing her mouth while trembling. Lyan's gaze was slowly sidetracked at the piece of hand lying before the woman.

Lyan's eyes widened before her vision was diverted to her right side of the body. His heart was beating unbecoming to see his hands were out of place and blood was pouring out of it.
