Lirian soon found himself under the assault of the three leaders of house Kurt, if Lirian was being generous he would call their skills pathetic, but the one thing he had to admit was that the three worked extremely well together.

Lirian found himself dodging blow after blow with rapid succession, dodging Rupid was easy, and if Lirian was facing the ancestor of house Kurt alone, he would have found it to be a work out, but as the two attacked him together he found that their attacks were coming a little too close for comfort.

Every time he managed to break their assault, a dozen spells would come racing at him and force him to focus on them, but they came in useful for him to keep his energy from draining.

As he consumed the latest spell, the ancestor of House Kurt suddenly launched another strike that took Lirian by surprise, because as the ancestor attacked Lirian noticed the forms wash away from his body, and he entered the state of 'free striking'.

"Ha!" Lirian roared and braced himself for the strike, until now the flow of attacks was standard to forms, which made the flow of attacks predictable.

Unlike Rupid the Ancestor was able to combine his forms to make his attacks less predictable, but it still lacked the unpredictability of 'free striking'.

But all of that was about to end, Lirian had to assume that it was because he was constantly fighting using 'free striking' that the ancestor was able to understand something and make his break through in his skill.

Lirian skidded across the floor for a dozen yards before coming to a halt, "It's very late for your rank, but I suppose better late than never,' Lirian laughed when he finally stopped sliding.

The ancestor looked at Lirian with a deep gaze, he was surprised by how quick Lirian was to realise his change, he had actually felt like he could break through, just a short while after the fight begun, but he was holding it back to deliver a fatal blow to Lirian.

He noticed the peculiarity in Lirian's movements every time Lirian shattered a spell, for a few moments Lirian's guard would almost completely fall, the ancestor didn't know why it happened but he saw it as an opportunity to take Lirian by surprise, yet he didn't even surprise Lirian for more than a second.

Little did he know that the opening was actually caused by Lirian absorbing the energy from the spells.

In the end it seemed that Lirian instantly recognised his change when he revealed it and it only filled Lirian with more battle intent.

"I suppose that I owe you my thanks for helping me see the path," the ancestor spoke with a hint of sincerity in his tone.

His voice was deep and carried a lot of power, and it was a first for almost everyone in house Kurt to hear his voice, the ancestor rarely ever spoke, it was said that he only ever spoke to his two sons.

Yet now he was speaking to a hated enemy who had killed one of the heirs to the house with sincerity.

"As thanks, I'll make you death swift and painless," the ancestor said humbly.

Lirian laughed loudly, "Wow, you made a breakthrough in your skills and now you think that you can beat me," he laughed dismissively at the ancestor's declaration.

"The only reason you were able to dominate this battle was because your skill stood above mine, but now that I have reached the same level, you can't win, you know as well as I do that your energy can't match my own," the ancestor rumbled on.

"Wow, you sure are a chatter box once you start talking," Lirian chuckled.

He briefly considered raising his skill level to using tension forms, but then he knew that it would just make his opponents despair at the disparity in skill, he wanted his opponents to believe that they had a chance until the next battle.

He also refused to use his saint ability [Battle Radiance] while it would increase his power by 500%, it would also increase his energy consumption by 500%, for now he already achieved his evaluation of the battle powers of House Kurt, it was time for him to retreat.

"Let's settle this the next time we meet," Lirian announced, and took everyone by surprise.

"You don't seriously think you leave?" Conner Kurt asked in an incredulous tone, "If you can escape our encirclement then we don't deserve to call ourselves a noble family," he said with firm conviction.

"Oh man," Lirian sighed, "I guess that you guys won't deserve to call yourselves a noble family anymore  after today," he said and then quickly added, "Also I don't think I can leave, I know I can," he sighed softly and brought his hands together.

Lirian started to levitate, and he slowly opened his palms, to reveal a wildly oscillating sphere of energy, "Don't believe my words if you don't want to, but you'll have to believe it when it happens,"

As he spoke Lirian pulled his hands apart and three more spheres appeared, the three leaders looked at the spheres with wide eyes, they could feel the power radiated by those spheres, and could tell without a doubt that the spell cost Lirian more than half his reserves of energy.

The leaders locked eyes with each-other, they all came to the decision that they had to dodge the attacks first and attack Lirian after they evaded, they were certain that after launching the spell, Lirian would be drained.

"Now you get to choose," Lirian said, "The future of your house or me," he laughed and instantly three of the four spheres shot out, but they weren't aimed at the leaders, instead they were aimed at key figures of house Kurt.

The first one shot directly at Stanley, and without hesitation, Rupid dashed forward to intercept the attack, he was certain that with his strength even if he took a direct hit he would only receive a severe injury.

The second sphere shot at Izlandi, Lirian didn't hesitate to use her as a hostage even if they were allies, her uncle readily rushed to her aid and created magical barriers to protect her.

Finally the third sphere was a lot stronger than the other two and it was aimed directly at the largest gathering of adepts, who numbered 7, if the sphere struck, then House Kurt would lose 7 of their adepts.

It was a no brainer for the ancestor to defend the key members of his house.

Lirian laughed as the three leaders moved according to his prediction, "Wrong choice!" Lirian shouted and the final sphere in his armed glowed with even more power than the previous three combined.

The world seemed to move in slow motion to the leaders as Lirian threw the sphere directly at the ground.

The ancestor and Rupid released grunts of pain as the spheres smashed into them, and Connor desperately poured his energy into a barrier he created to stop the sphere of oscillating energy from shredding though Izlandi.

They were powerless to do anything about the final sphere, they looked at the trajectory in confusion as the sphere raced towards the corridor floor.

'Did he lose his aim,' they wondered, until the sphere crashed and released a deafening explosion.

The cracked floor started to crumble and collapse and the cracks continued to spread without seizing, the three leaders felt the ground starting to collapse all around them, and they glanced at their family members with worry as member after member plummeted down with the collapsing floor.

Lirian levitated in the air and watched as the entire force of House Kurt plummeted through the collapsing floor.
