Kai Lane: Beginning

BOOOOMM...!!!!!

The impact of the big explosion sent everyone flying to one side, and the 4 sides split into 4 different groups. This was not something the hunters could control, but the same was not true for the 9 developers.

As the 4 groups flew off in different directions, a thick cloud of dust covered the area. When everyone realized that they had been divided, they became more alert.

Even if the developers had arranged it, they couldn't decide who would fall where. If a single developer fell where there were 2 hunters, then the developer was doomed to die.

At that moment, a young man with slanted eyes and a girl with blonde hair that was almost white fell to the ground, coughing. Even though they were both fine, the shockwave created a dangerous moment.

"You idiot! If I hadn't caught you at the last moment, you would have faced that egotistical man alone!"

Alvar coughed and spoke as he looked at Clara. Alvar no longer wore the white cloak. No one had one. From now on there would be no such classification. Each could only rely on his own strength.

Apart from that, they both had leather clothes and weapons. It was pointless to dress modern from now on. At the slightest move, those clothes would be torn to shreds.

Of course, this was because they were out hunting. Otherwise, they usually dressed normally. They would wear comfortable clothes again, but more appropriate to the times.

But Alvar had no such idea. Normally, he looked like a monk.

And now, like an old swordsman, he had grown his hair long and it fell down on his back. Even the rate at which Alvar's hair grew was much faster than other people's.

Alvar was an enigma and a strange man in his own right.

Anyone who looked at Alvar directly would think that he was a swordsman endowed with incredible wisdom. A master who understood the meaning of Buddha....

But anyone who tried to say he was too kind had to be prepared to be shot by heaven.

"It's not my fault. I was in the air when the collision happened! Can't you hold me like a human being?!? You almost broke my wrist?!"

Clara roared. She wasn't a normal person either. How could she allow herself to be patronized by someone who was only a year older than her? Alvar could do that to others, but never to Clara. She had shamelessly humiliated Quentin on the first day of the Academy. Anyone who wanted to mess with her should have thought twice.

"How nice that you two are fighting. As much as I don't want to kill you, those are the orders. And I'm a general who has to follow orders."

Alvar and Clara looked at Yuta standing in front of them as if nothing had happened. This man had been a Half-Step for a long time, and it made Alvar and Clara feel strange that he was so loyal to the Hunters. They felt that these people had been taken there by force and raised in a brutal way. But this man was very calm and relaxed. He seemed to be a bit of a neat freak.

"Did I give you permission to speak?!"

Alvar yelled at Yuta. Yuta took a step back, not expecting such a sudden reaction. When Alvar stood up, a layer of gray energy rose around his body.

"Half Step Step 2!"

Even though Clara and Alvar were a year older, Alvar was still much stronger than Clara. Clara's ability was barely enough to participate here. Even Isaac was probably stronger than her. She was ashamed that even the Cowardly Child was so strong.

But she had to find Quentin. After all, Quentin was her friend. That was the main reason why she had come here.

But now this man was standing in front of them. He wanted a beating!

Alvar and Clara jumped out of their seats at the same time and both of them aimed their fists directly at Yuta.

"Feel the flow of energy... "

Yuta spoke softly, but with a wave of his hand, this softness turned into a disturbing energy. Alvar's pupils contracted, but Clara understood nothing.

"Energy Saint!"

"Th-That's... Impossible!!!"

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

It was clearly impossible to describe the ability of an Energy Saint, and it was unbelievable that someone like Kai could even appear as an Energy Saint at this time, and now the man in front of him was an Energy Saint.

When did the hunters become so powerful?

Alvar suddenly drew his sword, and the energy wave split in two as a sharp sword sounded.

"This island is incredible! How could we let you be the only ones to benefit from the treasures found here? That's the only reason I came here, to kill you!"

This time, Yuta lunged forward. Many colored lights came out of his fist. Those lights came from his rings.

"Get back!!!"

As soon as Alvar saw this attack, he realized its power. He quickly called to Clara. He could block this attack, but Clara could not!

But there was no time to run! Alvar lunged forward and kicked Clara away from the attack as it came at him. As Alvar blinked his eyes, his body began to crackle and sizzle as if a monster had awoken. Alvar put his sword behind his back.

"Purple Lightning Buddha Art! Sudden Lightning Strike!!!"

CUT....!!!!

When Alvar wielded the 1st Lightning Bolt, his aura completely changed and transformed into the grace of a Buddha. His sword turned into a Buddha covered in purple lightning, and the two attacks collided, but of course it was a silent attack, and only the sizzle of the purple lightning echoed.

A gap of 10 meters opened between Alvar and Yuta. Alvar had overtaken Yuta and they were both standing upright.

But inside, Yuta was terrified.

'W-What the hell is this kid?! He managed to smash one of my rings.... And what I saw.... Was it just a Buddha covered in purple lightning?!'

There would be no difference in level between people of the Half Step 2nd Steps. People like Yuta were stronger because they were usually better at the techniques they used, or they had a better understanding of the laws. But in the end, they were all at the same level. Of course, Alvar's Purple Lightning Buddha Art would work on Yuta with full effect.

While Yuta remained stunned, a dangerous feeling suddenly enveloped his body. But before he turned his head, he had already heard the Purple Lightning sizzle.

"Purple Lightning Buddha Art... 2nd Lightning.... Monument of Silence...."

Yuta turned his head back, but Alvar had already appeared in front of him. He was so fast that the sizzle of his technique made the enemy think he was somewhere else.

A signal from Yuta's rings went to Yuta. At that moment, Alvar's sword landed on Yuta's head.

CAAAARRRRTTTT.....!!!!!!

A green barrier appeared in front of Yuta, but Alvar's sword cut it into pieces.

Still, Yuta took advantage of the sword's slowdown and dodged the attack. When the barrier broke, he had 8 rings left.

But he also realized the danger of Alvar. He had to kill this man.

Yuta's ring suddenly changed and became a dagger, and it went straight for Alvar's throat. Yuta could also see Clara lying on the other side, knocked down by Alvar's kick. Clara could not save Alvar.

The dagger moved at full speed towards Alvar's neck!

DING...!!!

"Thumb Sword Shield...."

Yuta watched the scene in front of him in horror as he suddenly felt the whisper of a Buddha in his ear. Alvar was holding his sword vertically in front of him, holding it from top to bottom. This way, the sword should have been unbalanced, but when Yuta lowered his head, he felt a cold wind pass through his body.

Alvar pushed the sword with his thumb to stabilize it on the lower side. This way, the sword was perfectly balanced again.

"This... Is that your Green Lightning skill?"

Yuta realized that this was no ordinary technique. If someone had tried something like that, his thumb would have been cut off by his own sword because of the pressure Yuta was applying with the dagger. You had to take into account that your finger would be cut off because you were supporting your sword with your thumb.

But Alvar was completely calm.

CRACKTT!

Yuta's Dagger...... Alvar's sword was shattered by the impact. Yuta looked into Alvar's eyes in horror. The man who had just been talking nonsense was now looking at him with an incredibly serious look.

"This man..."

Alvar's usual mocking attitude was now gone. With that serious look, he drew his sword and stretched his legs. As he held the sharp sword at his side, the hair he had grown waved behind him like a dragon. The reflection from the sword showed that he had incredible energy.

Alvar was now a true swordsman.

"I understand now..."

Yuta felt his gaze change as he looked at Alvar. He had to give everything now or he would be killed by Alvar here.

"7 Hanga!!!"

The remaining 7 Hanga jumped out of Yuta's hand and surrounded Alvar. Hanga was Yuta's name for the rings.

Yuta had a desperate look on his face as he extended his hand forward.

"Explode!!!"

CUT...!!!

Some energy had to come out of Yuta's hands and command the hangas. This was the way to make the hangas explode. Even if Yuta said 'explode', the hangas could not explode directly every time he said it. It was a very short moment because he was an Energy Saint, but there was still a difference.

But at that moment, a dagger had cut his hand!

Yuta could only see the hair that had turned from yellow to white. It waved in front of him, obscuring his vision, but Yuta realized who it was.

"Clara!!!"

But now he had missed his only chance to kill Alvar. He had reached the 10th rank because he could control 10 different mana weapons, but they didn't work on Alvar. Even if he could have killed him, someone else had cut off his hand.

Unacceptable!!!

But it was too late. Alvar's gaze had already reached the point of trembling. His gaze was very hard, and he looked like a swordsman, but the purple thunderbolts made him look like a Buddha. But the sword was pointing in the wrong direction.

At that moment, Alvar's swordsmanship was heard.

"50 Shades of Buddha..."

SHATTERING...!!!!!

The sharp sword moved quickly, penetrating Yuta's buttocks and reaching his head. The moment the sword reached his head, Yuta's head exploded and he died instantly. The sword entered Yuta's coccyx vertically

"....!"

Clara looked at Alvar in shock. This man... She didn't even know what to say.

Alvar swayed a little on his feet. He had tried really hard to move so fast that Yuta couldn't see him, and he was tired after using so many techniques, but he wasn't in too bad of shape....

Alvar looked at Clara. Then he grinned broadly.

"I killed him!"
