“Theela, activate the formation flags! This is going to be an easy harvest!”
“We can interrogate them after we’ve captured them,” a male trialist shouted out.
“Alright!” The female trialist who set up the formation immediately tried communicating with it. She wanted to change the positions of the flags.
However, Alex used his divine consciousness and tangled the Chaos roots around the flags. He could make them his by wiping away the soul imprints on them.
“Ahhh!” The woman screamed. She froze, realizing that she had lost contact with her own flags.
Someone asked, “Theela, what’s with you? Can’t you be a little quicker?”
Theela replied. “I… I can’t sense my flags anymore.”
“What?!”
Just then, all twenty four formation flags popped out of the ground, floating in mid-air. Fluttering in the wind, they radiated with a bright light.
Theela was overjoyed. “My flags appeared!”
Alex spoke up indifferently. “No, they’re mine!”
This time, he spoke in Novian to them.
“Huh?”
“You can speak our language? Are you not natives? Could you be from Galaxy Nova too?”
“It’s possible that he’s someone from the previous rounds, and he might’ve stolen someone’s chance…”
The trialists froze, making assumptions amongst themselves.
In just a few moments, someone yelled at everyone. “Stop guessing blindly. Have you all forgotten that those punks back in Purple Cloud Academy have mentioned that the daughter of the Huffman family has been killed by them?”
“As a Huffman, she must have brought along a communication scripture. If they obtained that, it would be normal for them to have learned our language.”
That person then turned to look at Alex. “Am I right about that, huh?”
“Ahhh, what is that?”
“What’s happening? Where did these damn things come from?”
The people inside were screaming as their voices trembled with absolute fear.
Alex replied. “This is the correct way to use the twenty four formation flags. You people have been limiting its potential. That’s why you don’t deserve to own such a treasure.”
Lunafreya and the others were utterly shocked as well.
“This guy is also a master of formations?”
“Lune, don’t you admire these people the most? This must be fate! Come one now, show him your big Lunas, conquer his heart!”
Lunefreya was extremely mad and embarrassed. She wished she could tear her best friend’s mouth off of her face.
On the other hand, Alex decided to ignore the trialists and dragged Lunafreya aside. “You said you knew something about my companion. Then tell me, what does she look like? If you were trying to trick me, I’d be sure to make you into a piece of mooncake!”
