24 Ashuras

"Should I enter?"

The young king looked at the opened Demi-Gap.

'With my strength right now, I am not sure if I could make it out alive. But this place is one of the places where a blood altar is, but it only has ten percent of possibility. I'm not sure if there's one in there.'

'I only heard it in my last life. That thing is in there, my life is important.'

The young looks at the distance,

'The elder I killed had a backup people to track him, and it would be a problem if I stay here, Because the warp to Ashura's Savannah would close, and it can only be opened again after a month,'

A moment of decision, 'Fu.ck it, I want to summon that phone. I will try even if there's only a little chance that one of the blood altars is here.'

The young King was about to enter when he noticed that the elder, with a severed head that he ate was still on his left arm,

'I should take this corpse, too. They could track it if I leave it here. I'll east this later if I don't find food.'

The young king finally entered the Demi-Gap.

...

"GATHER UP!!"

A handsome and slightly massive man with two red horns shouted. Looking down at the kids around fifteen to twenty years old, that is slightly similar to a man's look.

"ALL OF YOU ARE ASHURA!

"TODAY IS THE DAY THAT YOU WILL PROVE TO ME! TO US! TO THE LADIES AND ELDERS THAT WE ARE WARRIORS! FIGHTING IS IN OUR BLOOD, IT'S WHAT WE LIVE FOR! AND...

"WE...

"ARE

"STRONG!"

The massive horned man pointed his left hand to a forest with dense and massive trees, and shouts,

"IN THE FORESTS, THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF DANGEROUS BEASTS! THE TEST IS THAT EACH EVERYONE OF YOU IS NOT ALLOWED TO GO ON RAGE MODE!

"OF THERE'S ANYONE WHO DEFIES, WE WILL SENSE IT, AND YOU'LL BE DISQUALIFIED! YOU'LL BE STRIPPED OUT OF YOUR BLOODLINE POWER AND WILL FOREVER SERVE AS MORTAL.

"ALL OF YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO! AND WHAT TO SEARCH, ONCE YOU BRING WHAT WE WANTED TO YOU BRING, YOU'LL GAIN SOMETHING IMPORTANT!"

The younger generation of Asura made a scream of celebration,

"We are ASHURAS!"

"We are ASHURAS!"

"We are ASHURAS!"

The massive Asura raised his hands and made a fist.

"I hope you make it. There's a special beast in there that is powerful than any other Tartarus beast in there! I hope most of you make it alive,"

The man turned his head to a beautiful woman. She had a clear white skin that shines through the light, her lips were small and devil red, two short light-red colored horns with captivating pinkish eyes.

"Especially you, Edith. We are expecting great things from you, as the best candidate for a future princess warrior"

She nodded without emotion, which made the massive guy satisfied. Then she left without saying a word as the Ashura man stared at him with mixed feelings of admiration and pity.

"The greatest warrior of our tribe in our younger generation, the future princess warrior. I pity her for she will not have a man in her life and experience the sufferings of the strongest."

All of the sudden,

"Ranab!

"Ranab!"

The Ashura man looks at the one who's calling him and asks,

"What is it?"

The one who called gasped to take a breath, and then he says,

"We found humans!"

The Ashura man trembled in surprise.

"Did you get them?" He asked.

"Unfortunately, they committed suicide while saying, 'That mad king betrayed us!' before we can call a maiden to control them. It's frustrating. Before we could hope to see an entrance to the outside world, it was all destroyed."

The Ashura man contemplates while his subordinate complains about it.

He put his hand on the shoulder of his complaining subordinate and says,

"Worry not. It only means that it's near that place. The lost gate after the class event. We will comb it."

His subordinate nodded and bid farewell as he turned his head back to the students and says,

"Let the entrance for the fourth year as a proud Ashura warrior begin!"

'They sent a Volcano Beast for me to slay. They probably want to see how my ability would reach. I just hope that it can bring out the fire inside me, for it is the only thing that keeps me alive. To this place full of boredom.

'Last time I said I always felt afraid that I would kill someone. I am never defeated, nor there is someone who can bring me a good battle. I hope beast would give me the battle I want.'

When she left the Ashura man, the lady Edith was with her classmates. She is the strongest of her class that even their senior of her Ashura clan couldn't beat her, for her blood control ability was far greater than her.

what more of men?

'I can't even have an intimate relationship with men. I am now convinced that I will probably be  a princess warrior of my Ashura clan.'

Their clan places strength more than everything. Women or girls just like her mostly dominate the Clan. Men can only have their way with them if they display strength more than the women they are attracted to.

The men can materialize blood and turn it into a weapon, shield, bullet, rope to tie someone, etc.

However, it's almost impossible for men to beat them because women can control blood. They can make someone's arm or feet or even their head explode by controlling their blood.

Blood bending!

Out of nowhere,

"Lady Edith!

"Lady Edith!

"Lady Edith!"

"You are late," Edith replied. She is waiting for this girl to go with her.

However, the girl's expression was apologetic, so Edith asked,

"What's wrong?"

"I can't-.. I can't-... My lover asked me too, uh.." the girl stutters because she wanted to tell Lady Edith that she can't go with her.

Edith knew what's going on,

"I get it, go on with him. After all, he's your lover."

The girl almost cried,

"I'm sorry, Lady Edith. I promised I would go with you but... But..."

Edith only smiled at the crying little girl and patted her asking,

"I'm curious. How did that man conquer you?"

The girl stopped crying and reply with happiness written on her face,

"The fool, fooled me! Hmmphp! He challenged me and I accepted. When we were in battle, I was about to control his body and slowly torture him, but he fooled me!

"Turns out he's already Tyrian blood! So in the end, I can only accept my defeat."

In the Ashura clan, there are power levels.

The weakest is the  'Alizarin' blood manipulator, the second is 'Auburn', the third is Tyrian, and the strongest is in the 'Sanguine' Blood Ashura.

Alizarin female Ashura can control the male Alizarin blood controller. However, they can't control Auburn, Tyrian and Sanguine.

"My lady, I'm sorry," the girl said as he noticed her. Lady Edith became silent. She knew what are princesses warriors of their Ashura clan.

Edith ignore her expression and smiled, "Don't worry about me."

The girl's cheerful look came back as she thought of something.

"Why don't you and-"

"Don't mention his name. Just go with your lover."

The girl scratched her head and laugh a moment then she bid farewell and left Edith.

'Sigh, is this jealousy?' she asked herself. Shaking her head he jumped to enter the forest.
