Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 162: CHAPTER 162 – Training on an Unknown Island.

If two SS-rank raiders were to fight seriously, with all of their power, then the destruction of the area that is going to be destroyed and the lives that are going to be lost in that process was not small.

So, now that everyone in Alex's group was higher or equal to SS rank, Alex decided to change the location for their training.

'I can just barricade the area for us to fight, but it will cause us to have limited space….'

Alex had thought of just barricading the training room in their house, but that idea was quickly shot down by himself.

With nothing better to think of, Alex brought them all to an uninhabited, undiscovered, and isolated island that he found after a lot of searching.

It was easy to find some uninhabited islands as there were many like that, much more so after the expansion of the planet.

So, right now, they were on this island that was unclaimed by anyone.

This was their new training ground, and it was huge. It was the size of a large city and Alex had found out that it was actually the tip of a huge mountain that originated from the sea bed.

The mountain had probably grown when the planet grew, making it even larger, but it really was huge….

.....................….

Alex, who was in mid-air moved his palms toward each other, and just as he did…

'Pyre of adjudication,' Alex muttered inwardly as he used the skill that had been growing along with him for a while.

'The flames in the surroundings are evil,' Alex muttered again.

This skill, 'Pyre of Adjudication' worked in a unique way.

The fire from the POA (Pyre of adjudication) only burned evil, it won't even touch the good things.

This was one of the reasons why Alex never used it.

But one day he tried experimenting with something, and the result was success.

'I just need to wholeheartedly believe that the one I'm using this flame for is/ are evil.'

Alex found a loophole.

Nothing was actually evil or actually good, it was just how you see it.

For a thief, stealing is not something bad, the thieves steal because they think that it is an easier way for them to earn money.

But the same thing is considered a crime if we go by the law.

The flames worked just like that.

The things that Alex considered evil will be burned by the flame while the things that Alex considered good won't be.

Just as Alex thought of Alice's flames that were in the surroundings as evil, the pyre of adjudication, which is a maroon-colored flame rushed out of Alex's body.

The maroon-colored flame washed over Alice's golden-orange flames, and Alice's flames extinguished.

"Wha…."

Alice who saw all of this was shocked.

'What the hell is this ability?!?!' Alice screamed inwardly but then she saw Alex passing her a smile.

'….. Another one of his abilities,' Alice was not even surprised anymore.

She was shocked that Alex had flames that were strong enough to extinguish her flames, but she was not surprised because it was Alex.

Now, it would not have been possible for Alex's flames to extinguish Alice's flames no matter if they were growth-type or not.

Alice had unlocked a bit of her potential, after all.

But right now, Alice was not strong enough to face a flame that was epic-ranked.

Yes, POA was epic-ranked, and that was because it was a growth-type skill.

Alex who had used POA to extinguish Alice's flame could finally see the battlefield now.

But it took some time and now, the attack that was headed toward him was right in front of his face.

A simple looting blade was thrown at him, and there was no one in the direction it was thrown from.

'That's Ann's conjured blade…' Alex muttered inwardly, but on the outside…..

"It's clearly a diversion, I can tell that easily, not like it is of any use now, the flames are gone."

Alex spoke as he tilted his head to the side, avoiding the blade.

It was easy to tell that the blade was just a diversion, something that would take his attention, letting the attacker make use of that moment and attack him.

But now the flame veil made by Alice was gone, and there was nothing for the attacker to hide in.

However, just as Alex dodged the blade headed toward him, he felt another attack heading toward him.

Alex landed on the ground only to find a golden wave of flame coming at him.

"You know that I can just dodge it, don't you?" Alex raised his brow as he jumped to the side.

But just then his perception warned him of danger, so he quickly tilted his body backward and did a back handspring.

From the corner of his eyes, he saw what it was.

'Ann is getting better and better at strategizing….'

Alex muttered inwardly as he saw the spike made out of shadow that had almost penetrated his skull.

There was the sun in the sky, but there were no trees or anything in the surroundings, so there was nothing that could produce shadow other than Alex's own shadow in the surroundings.

'This time it was Noctura….' Alex noted inwardly.

The only one who can control shadow is Noctura.

However, she didn't make a spike out of Alex's shadow, it was not possible, not until Alex allowed it or Alex knew about it.

The spike was made out of the shadow produced by the blade that Alex dodged before.

The blade had a tiny shadow, and the spike made out from it would be small as well, but that is where Alice's flames came into play.

'Plans and backup plans…...

She worked hard for today's training.'

Alex praised Ann inwardly.

The flames that Alice shot were bright enough to make the shadow of the dagger bigger, which made it possible for Noctura to make a large spike out of it.

Alice shot the flames just after Alex dodged the dagger and landed on the ground, which meant that the dagger was not far from him at that moment, resulting in the current situation.

Alex was upside down right now, or to be precise, he was on his hands as he was in the middle of his back handspring, but before he could land back on his feet…..

*Swosh*

Alex heard the sound of air cutting again before his perception warned him again.

The attack was coming right to his head or neck as he was still upside down.

Alex didn't spring himself back straight, if he did that, he felt that he would fall for their trap again, so instead, he fell straight to the ground on his back.

With him falling to the ground, the attack that was supposed to hit him passed right above his face.

Alex was safe, but he didn't stop as he knew how annoying Ann's stealth was, so he rotated his body on the ground and kicked in the direction where the attack came from.

"Argh!"

A groan was heard as Alex's attack hit right in Ann's gut.

Ann's stealth got removed as she was thrown back for who knows what distance.

But before Alex could get a breather or even get up, Noctura, who had been invisible from the start finally jumped on Alex with her claws covered with shadow.

"Shit!"
