*underground*

*3rd pov*

Their stand zenon and cronan stared at each other while alexia, who was still at zenon side was stunned and awed by cronan's appearance. Zenon was smirking at the prize the cult had been searching for, while cronan's aura and glowing eyes flared with intensity.

Zenon: *smirking* You've finally shown yourself at last mr.cronan. The cult has been getting annoyed with you and your little group's interruptions for the past five years by taking out our smaller bases. While it's impressive you found out the important bases outside the city, but too bad. None of the core cult members were near any of them. But overall, you and your group are nothing but cowards who attack our weakest minions.

Cronan: *neutral tone* Any small victory will count for something. If I recall correctly, weren't there some shipments that were supposed to have come several months ago suddenly started "disappearing". I bet your superiors weren't happy about that.

Zenon was surprised, but frowned in displeasure knowing cronan was responsible for those shipments to the cult disappearing.

Zenon: *frown* So that was you. *smirks again* *points sword at cronan* But no matter, unfortunately for you it isn't and a member of the cult is standing right here. *takes a stance* And as luck would have it, you'll be hunted down by me. The future twelve seat of rounds, zenon griffey.

While zenon was talking, cronan stood there, but unknowingly to zenon or alexia, cronan silently produced a violet sphere that went and floated above everyone.

Zenon: *smirks* I will take your life, cronan, in the honorable service of the knights of rounds!

CLANG!!!

CLASH!!!

Alexia: *shock and awe* 'How is this possible? Not even iris achieved this level.'

While alexia was shocked at belief in what she saw. But zenon was the most shocked, because his attack was blocked by a purple light energy sword cronan created.

Zenon: *shocked* HOW!? HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!?!? THAT IS A EXTREMELY ADVANCED TECHNIQUE, THAT NO ONE, NOT EVEN PRINCESS IRIS COULD ACHIEVE!!!

The shadow ruler was silent during the whole rant, and pushed zenon back with the force of his energy sword and the resulting shockwave sent zenon flying and fell to the ground.

Cronan: *walks in front of alexia* *serious tone* So now where can I really find this core member of the cult?

Without saying a word, cronan simply produced some black shadow like magic and the shadow like magic started covering cronan's energy sword until it became a dark energy sword with some purple mana highlight.
