15 CHAPTER 15

There were 20 families, out of them, the Mahler, which excelled in assassination martial arts, Prokofiev, which excelled in Defense martial arts, and Andre which excelled in Healing Martial arts were the head families. The other families were descendants from them and took their martial arts. Enhancement martial arts, Summoning martial arts and Transmutation arts were ancient scrolls which all of the families possessed. All the families then wanted a separate country for themselves and raged war on the countries they lived in with the help of 8 specialists which had come into this world. They were able to create their own Empire, but after that the 8 specialists left and the leader of the Prokofiev family - Seirg Prokofiev took charge of the country.

Wakatoshi was from the Mustang family and Igsem was from the Yukino family. Solork, Wakatoshi and Igsem actually did not have much position in their family, as there were other elder brothers and sisters who were included in the power struggle and they weren't really interested in it.

Healing martial arts is formed by forming patterns on the ground and using the earth's energy to heal the target person. It also takes a lot of time to study this martial art and the strength of this martial art is mostly directed by knowledge, instead of the rank.

The Ikta, Lebian, Warin families lead the A rank squads. Most of the other squads had leaders as the people of the family like the Zipang squad. Till now, there were about 200 people who had passed the test and were enjoying these scrolls and martial arts which included Arata and Rachel. There were only 18 legendary rank people - All of the people in the S rank squad and leaders of the A rank squads. The families had unlimited powers, as all martial arts users weren't signed up for the units and still practiced in their ancestral homes.

This is it for the information. Now we will continue the story from before.

Arata and Rachel decided to get out of the building, so that people won't fight them there. And as expected, no one attacked them. So all the people of Zipang squad decided to leave the building. At this point both Rachel and Arata had reached their peak.

"Ah ! It's overflowing !", Rachel said.

"That sounded wrong on multiple levels. But I guess it's time to level up.", Arata replied.

"How the Fuck do you guys reach your peak so quickly !", Igsem asked. "You are going to reach my stage. I have been practicing martial arts for like 21 years ! and you didn't even take 21 weeks !",

"Yup, that's some insane capabilities, I wonder who will guide to Legend ran, whenever that happened.", Solork said. "But still, it looks like even I have to break through to Legend."

"Now the mana ocean will become a star. Basically, to any breakthrough, you just have to concentrate all your mana into one part of the body, that is the brain.", Wakatoshi said.

"Oh, that's easy !", Rachel exclaimed.

And so these both did as they were old, concentrating the mana in one part of the body, and then they broke through to Silver rank ! It transformed into a star.

A star ! It was like a ball of mana. And to go to the next rank, they had to explode it.

They could easily be considered a B rank squad now with their achievements. They only lacked a defender. But, annihilating the two squads out of which one was a powerful B ranks squad and a top C rank squad had put them on the black list. Many strong people were going to gather in the capital in front of them, and it was going to turn out into an all out war. What is this country, Who's on their side and Who is going to pull through. The fake peace of the Empire which lasted for 2 years is going to come to a close and the curtains are going to rise on the next big story arc. Stay tuned !
