Roan looked at Tang Shaoyang then he exchanged glances with the other old n. Another Epic old man gave a nonchalant shrug, telling Roan it was for him to decide. The other two old n also said nothing about that even though the bald old man badly wanted to open his mouth to talk, but he held back.
"If you said that you are just an old man that enjoyed your retirent life, I assu you are not on any side, the kingdom or even the Revolution Army." When Tang Shaoyang ntioned the Revolution Army, he noticed that the bald old man was agitated. He was purposely watching the bald old man as it seed he was the only one who had trouble hiding his emotion.
"What are you talking about? Revolution Army?" Roan squinted his eyes at Tang Shaoyang before he glanced at Ashley. Roan was about to speak again, the second Epic old man opened his mouth, "How do you know about the Revolution Army?"
"Whom I speak to?" Tang Shaoyang t with the second Epic old man's gaze and returned the question with a question as well.
"My na is Tristan, now you answer !" The second Epic old man told his na and spoke in a commanding tone. But Tang Shaoyang remained defiant, "A basic conversation can be held if the two individuals know each other, or at least respect the opposite party. You are commanding as if I am your subordinate, but I am not. Also, I don't need your answer if you are my enemy or not, from your reaction, you know about the Revolution Army and might be part of the Revolution Army too, aning you are my enemy. An enemy should be eradicated!"
The Dragon Destroyed appeared in Tang Shaoyang's right hands, Roan and the other two old n stood up and leaped backward, leaving Tristan alone to face Tang Shaoyang. Tristan remained seated on his chair and glanced toward the battle-ax, "A fine weapon and only lacked so finishing to be upgraded to Epic Grade."
Tristan comnted before he looked back at Tang Shaoyang, "If you told the truth about the Revolution Army and you are their enemy, then we can talk. We are not part of the Revolution Army and we indeed know them so this will clear our hostility for the ti being." Tristan nodded and looked toward Ashley, "And this girl, she might be part of the Revolution Army. She was the Ambrose Family's descendant if I am not wrong."
It was Ashley's turn to be surprised, "How do you know?" She blurted out.
"Girl, Elental Power is not common, not everyone can have that, but most people have that. They just need proper training to awaken their Elental Power. However, amongst the Elental Power, Frost is the rarest amongst the rarest Elental Powers, and only one Family has a special technique called Frost Sword, it's the Ambrose Family. The Ambrose Family is part of the Revolution Army, so it was easy to conclude that you are part of the Revolution Army!" Tristan calmly explained how he could know about Ashley.
"She was part of the Revolution Army, but not anymore. She is now the Emperor of the Tang Empire's wife. She is not related to the Revolution Army or the Lionax Kingdom!" Tang Shaoyang responded to the old man Tristan.
Ashley looked toward Tang Shaoyang. She never agreed to be his wife, not even once even though her Great-Grandmother persuaded her to follow the man. She was considering it but had not yet co up with a decision. She wanted to make things clear with her father first before she decided on her future.
"I see… I see… I see…" Tang Shoayang suddenly said three tis and smiled at the four old n, "I know who you are now, and indeed you are not my enemy for now, but we don't know about the future since you four are taking a neutral stance! You four are the Elental Knight of the disbanded legion, Fotia Legion!"
The four old n were alard to hear that from Tang Shaoyang's mouth. A fierce aura burst out from Roan and Tristan, but Tang Shaoyang countered the aura that might suffocate his people. He directed [Sovereign Aura] and [Slayer Domination]. With two auras combined, he easily subdued the two old n's auras.
Tristan and Roan widened their eyes in shock as the other two old n were coughing violently and fell on their knees. Even Tang Shaoyang himself was surprised by the effect of the aura. He was not expecting that auras were not just not intimidating, it could even kill? He looked at the two old n who coughed violently while holding their necks. It seed the two had trouble breathing as well.
"Epic!? Ancient!?" Roan blurted out, but Tristan remained composed, "Please have rcy on them," The bearded old man requested with a more respectful voice and toned down his tone as he spoke to Tang Shaoyang.
Tang Shaoyang retracted the auras as the two old n who were choking on tears looked at Tang Shaoyang in pure shock. The man in front of them was much younger than them but he had reached the height they never reached. Especially the bald old man, he was shocked to the core.
Selena seed to believe that there was nothing her man could not do. This was sothing she expected to be. Ashley was surprised as to how easily Tang Shaoyang dominated two Epics' auras. This was not the first ti, but the second ti she witnessed it by herself. The first one was her father and her adopted-father, Duran Ambrose and Derekh Malone. Then she rembered what her Great-Grandmother told her.
—He is stronger than you thought. Even if he was not an Epic, he could rival them or even the Ancient. You have not seen his true power, , because no opponent could force him to go all out yet even though I have just recently contracted with him. Just follow him for now, you may find what you want.
Tang Shaoyang did not bother to tell them that he was not Epic yet. He let them assu things with their imagination.
"You said you are from the Empire of Tang, are you from the main continent?" Tristan asked. Three kingdoms and one forest, that was the power structure of the Ortis Continent. There was no force called the Tang Empire so he assud Tang Shaoyang was from the main continent.
"I don't think we are close enough to tell you my origin. Do you think I will tell you my origin to soone who tried to oppress with their aura?" Tang Shaoyang let out a sigh, "This conversation is going nowhere and we are just wasting our ti. Making an oath that you will never obstruct in any way for what I will be doing in the future and I will make an oath as well that I will not disturb your peace. That way, we can go our separate ways without worrying about each other."
"Oath? Do you an a system contract?" It was his first ti to hear about an oath, Tristan did not know what that was.
"Similar to the system contract but more potent. It can't be canceled unless both parties are agreed to call off the oath. The violator of the oath would be received a death penalty," Tang Shaoyang explained how the thing and pointed at Selena, "She would the one who performs the oath ceremony for us."
Tristan, Roan, and the other two old n looked toward Selena. Even though Tang Shaoyang did not explain the details, it was clear that the girl could oversee the oath that was related to her class. Tristan agreed that the talk was going nowhere, he got nothing from the opposite party but the opposite party had more information about them.
Of course, the reason Tang Shaoyang could get to know about their identities was because of Crystal and Rosalie inside him. They told him that the four old n were part of the Fotia Legion. They did not recognize them earlier because the four old n had grown old but the two recognized Tristan and Roan when they introduced their nas.
—Roan and Tristan, the other two should be Carl and Jacob. They are the four knights who followed Commander Alton.
That was what Rosalie told him during the talk. Of course, the Fla Queen was insisting to be summoned to reunite with her knights. She told him that she could persuade the four old n to follow him.
'I am not going to summon you. I want them to follow not to follow you. If I can't make them follow by myself then I am not going to use them. I don't want to create the second Pyrolis Kingdom.' That was his response to the Queen.
—Why are you so stubborn? What's the difference if they follow or follow you? I am now part of your power, following is the sa as following you. You know that Epic is not many, having them in your force is necessary!
Rosalie the Fla Queen raised her volu of voice as she tried to convince her Master.
'That's true, you are now part of my power. But don't forget that you are a spirit now. I have been saying this many tis, they might think that you are being imprisoned by . They might fight to free you from the binding instead of following you.'
"I think the oath was unnecessary, if you are fighting against the kingdom and the Revolution Army, then we will never be your enemy," Tristan was being cautious that the oath was a trick of the opposite party. He did not want to fall into the trap, "Since you know that we are part of the Disbanded Legion, Fotia Legion. You should know the bad blood between the kingdom and us and also the Revolution Army."
"I know, but I am not assured with re words hence I offer you an oath. I will make an oath myself, this is an equal oath, two sides oath," Tang Shaoyang narrowed his eyes, "I don't want to trust my back to strangers."
Tristan understood the man's concern, but then he was equally concerned about the oath itself. If it was a System Contract, he might agree to that, not to sothing with which he was not familiar.
There was a mont of silence between them. The other three old n returned to their seats as they exchanged glances. They were discussing what they should do in silence. At this mont, Selena nudged him.
"What? Do you have sothing to say? Maybe you can explain about the oath to them since you know the most about the oath." Tang Shaoyang looked toward Selena.
The girl shook her head, "No, it is not about that, but this is about Prince Kaiden." When the youngest prince was brought up, the other four old n also looked toward Selena.
"What about Kaiden? Did sothing happen to him? Do they have a way to break the oath?" Tang Shaoyang was also surprised that Selena brought up Prince Kaiden all of a sudden.
"No, the oath could not be canceled and if one breaks the oath, they would receive a penalty. The oath is sacred, it can't be broken unless they have a God to cancel the oath. However, this is not about that. Prince Kaiden broke the oath and he died." Selena explained what happened to Prince Kaiden.
Tang Shaoyang did not expect to hear this. The youngest prince was quite cowardly since he was willing to sacrifice his knights for his safety. He did not expect that he dared to break the oath.
"We should push our plan forward. We have to make our move too before the Revolution Army and the Kingdom clash!" Tang Shaoyang then looked toward the four old n, "We don't have much ti to waste. Agree with the oath or we will have to fight!"
