Chapter 128: Appearance of Mason

"Now for us to set this plan into motion" decided Lex as he received nods from Ella and Angela who were all ready for the final battle.

"The plan is simple, before withdrawing the Voltiac ID, you two should hide and conceal yourselves nearby, which should be easy for you with your weird abilities, and you will be able to hide in the snow or find another method to hide yourself.

I will make sure to draw the attention of Mason and will attack straight away, not giving him time to survey the surroundings, and you two will stay concealed until the right moment to sneak attack Mason and or those that he may bring with him, to gain the element of surprise and the advantage" directed Lex to Angela and Ella.

Angela as soon as she was given orders, trusting Lex with her life, went away to find a position that she could hide in.

"Yes that is the most logical plan, but will you be able to handle them head-on alone" enquired Ella as she looked deep into his dark eyes.

"Don't worry about me, I cannot be defeated on this continent without exploring what the Lower Plains has to offer" refuted Lex as he gazed back into her profound and mesmerising silver eyes.

"Well, you better not die until you have fulfilled your vow to surpass me" stated Ella loudly, as she flicked her hair and walked off.

"Yeah you better not die, I still need to beat you" called out Angela, hearing Ella's final words.

Lex simply gave them a determined nod as he sat on the ground and closed his eyes, giving Angela and Ella time to conceal themselves.

Mason was an enemy that Lex had no idea of his power, ability and capability, so wanted to have Angela and Ella as hidden support in the worst-case scenario.

After an hour or so of cultivating the Mental Void Method, reactivating the Void Mentallity that had worn off, Lex stood up.

"I am as prepared as I will ever be and it is now or never" he mumbled to himself knowing that the longer he delayed the confrontation with Mason, the more lives would be lost and the more time he would waste that could be spent on training or exploring.

Scouting Eye

Lex's eyes became completely clear as all his senses fused and became amplified, spreading his vision all around him.

His vision with his Heaven Mortal Internal Cultivation had reached a point where he could see everything within one kilometre of him with ease as the entire peak of the mountain could be clearly seen.

Scouring the area around him with his Scouting Eye, Lex was surprised to find that he couldn't sense Angela and Ella in the slightest.

He was expecting that of Ella, but was surprised by Angela's concealment ability that he thought would be another hole in his plan.

Everything was set, the rest was on Lex's shoulder, who needed to light the spark and hold off and weaken the enemy as much as possible, before an opportunity presented itself for a sneak attack.

Delaying it no longer, he withdrew the small white card, that he had imbued his blood with when joining the Voltiac Guild.

The effect was very underwhelming, as he didn't feel anything different and was out of range of any Voltiac Guild Bases, but Lex felt a gut feeling that it had caused something somewhere, as he sat back down to calm his mind before his enemies came hunting for him.

Meanwhile, within a secret Voltiac Base that was situated underground near the centre of the continent, there was a sudden disturbance as a Voltac rushed into the master office.

"How dare you waltz into my office, you will be my next meal" bellowed Mason as he flahsed before him with incredible speed and grabbed the Voltac by his neck, lifting him up and glaring deep into his eyes with his devilish expression.

"Please sire, sire there has been an update" uttered the Voltac respectfully was strangled by Mason.

"Speak" ordered Mason as he dropped him onto the ground.

"The Red Flash's disciple has popped up" informed him the Voltac while gasping for air frantically.

"What" exclaimed Mason in shock and disbelief.

"Show me immediately" he ordered as he lifted the Voltiac from his collar, as if he was as light as a feather.

"Yes, sire" accepted the Voltac respectfully as he rushed towards a reconnaissance room, leading Mason with him.

Mason had a tight grip over the control of the Voltiac Guild, as he received ultimate respect from everybody that knew what he was capable of and his demonic punishments.

Not only that, he had also made all those that were C Rank Voltacs or above sign a blood oath, so they couldn't betray him even if they dared to.

Leading him in the room, there was a large map of what seemed to be the entire continent that they resided on.

There was singe small red dot on the map that was on the map on a region of mountains in between the Earth Country and the Aria Country.

"It really is him" mumbled Mason to himself with extreme hate and killing intent.

"Your master ruined my plans and my progress, I have killed her but you also will die" declared Mason hatefully.

Noticing the area that he was in, Mason had a sudden assumption that was very likely to be true.

"He must be the rumoured White Flash that was enough to make it so that the Earth Country was able to fend off the Voltiac Guild's invasion" exclaimed Mason, connecting all the information he had to form the most logical conclusion.

With all the issues that the red flash and the white flash had caused him, Mason couldn't control his anger as he lashed out on the Voltac beside him, ripping off his head with his bare hands.

The grotesque and monstrous appearance of Mason was the last thing seen by the Voltac, as Mason threw his head to the side and kicked away his body.

"Rally up, we are leaving immediately" ordered Mason, as his voice echoed throughout the base and all of the strongest Voltacs that were with him in the secret base, prepared themselves to leave.

"My deadline is approaching and I have 6 months to take complete control of the Uster country in preparation for the master's awakening. This boy must be killed as soon as possible so that I can move onto going after the Earth Country and the Gamma Country that survived the invasions" mumbled Mason to himself, who had lost sight of morality and only had his own selfish desires in sight.

He was insane as he continued to cultivate the demonic method given to him by the weird demonic figure, that granted him strength, but through horrendous means, requiring him to slaughter thousands for his survival.

Mason was only barely managing to stay alive by continuously absorbing the blood of those that he continuously killed, and would gain the most from young female innocents, who had the most of their purity intact and fueled him the most.

Showing why demonic methods were called demonic as they went against all human morals.

Within minutes, an elite crop of 10, led by Mason, all converged above ground after leaving the secret base, all ready to head towards Lex.

"Bring out the beasts" ordered Mason.

"Yes, sire" they all replied in unison, rushing off into the woods nearby.

After a few minutes, the ground began to shake, as the 10 Voltacs rode back each on large beasts of different kinds, dragging along with them a beast for Mason.

Mason jumped onto his beast's back and rode off with rapid speeds, urging his beast to speed up by constantly kicking its side.

"At this speed, it will take us at least half a day at full speed to reach the target" estimated Mason, with his great experience.

"We will dispose of the beast after they become fatigued and can no longer continue, then continue the rest of the way on foot as not to alert the target" decided Mason, planning to exploit the beasts, they had bought up, to their deaths.

All while Lex sat in the same position calming his mind and Ella and Angela were hidden within the mountainous region in preparation for the arrival of Mason and his subordinates.

After 11 hours or so, of constant full speed travel, where they were pushed to their limits by the Voltacs and Mason, they began to collapse.

Swiftly and without remorse they wiped out all the beasts as they continued to the mountainous region, that was close, on foot as they began to climb up the mountains.

They continued up the closest mountain to them, but noticed nothing and the obvious place for them to find their target, was the most central and tallest mountain, which they headed towards.

Lex's instincts were warning him of danger as he abruptly stood up.

"The time has finally come" he mumbled to himself with an evil smile.
