Chapter 31: Threatening the Hallow mountain
Bang!
"That brat dares rebel in public? He dares direct the hellfire at me?" Tulic Vlad was furious.
Even against the mighty nine-tailed fox spirit, he didn't flinch, and neither did he use up to ten percent of his true strength. The pillars of the Hallow mountain are meant to be the best of the best and that's what he is right now.
So how could he let something so embarrassing happen?
"Logically speaking, you were not subdued by a child but by the sixth chieftain. We all saw it right? He still watches over that boy. To think even in death that man would still be a problem" Madeline said as she shivered while gripping herself tightly.
Anyone outside the people in the room would be shocked to see the mighty witch court elder acting this way but in reality, they all felt the same way. The horrors they endured at the hands of the sixth tribe chieftain are not something they can easily speak about.
It can only be experienced…
...…..
Blegh!
Sol spat out a mouthful of blood as he looked deadly pale in the carriage but strangely he wore a crazed smile.
The Ƙahi'k sat at the other side of the carriage and gazed at the young chieftain with a worried look. While the previous chieftain was like Sol, Sol was far more daring and crazy. The old Chieftain wouldn't dare approach the nine-tailed fox if he were at Sol's level but he wouldn't run from it either. But Sol actually marched an army, killing countless foes as he moved, and even dared to attack the fox queen with the Hellfire even though he was aware of the severe backlash due to the seal placed on him.
Blegh!
Sol fell to the side and spat out more blood as he swayed with the carriage. Normally, the Ƙahi'k would be have gone over to help but seeing the crazed look in the eyes of the kid, he wasn't sure he was needed.
What he couldn't see was the series of messages on Sol's screen.

Hahahahahahahahaha!
Sol leaned back and laughed hysterically leaving behind pearls of laughter as they rode the lonely roads back to the sixth tribe.
..... Three Weeks Later ...….
The events of that day had passed but the memories of that day were still in the hearts of many. To the sixth tribe, that day marked the rebirth of their tribe and their return to power. During the three weeks before the resumption of school for the second stage of the ranking test, another rite of awakening was held and the sixth tribe produced over ten to fifteen guardians.
Unfortunately, after the absence of a tribe chieftain lingered for too long, it seemed that a few people permanently lost their abilities. During this time a heated debate was been held at the academy of Guardians but it wasn't just the Ƙhai'k in attendance.
.........….
On the round table where the chieftains and family leaders were seated, Sol sat in the place of the sixth tribe Chieftain, dressed in his favorite orange robes with his long black hair tied into a ponytail.
By his right was the Ƙahi'k of the sixth tribe and by his left was Natasha, a five-tailed fox spirit!
Buzz!
The tension in the room was high but Sol seemed oddly calm. To him this was no different from his early days on earth when he went from company to company, presenting his ideas and proposals. Back then he was nothing and always came in the presence of the most powerful men.
Their crushing pressure broke him, his failure remodeled him and his success created the man he is now. The man who wouldn't even blink even if seated in the presence of God.
"Halo mountain has laws! Beings who have lost their supernatural heritage have no business here! Your people who have failed to awaken their powers must be cast out of Hallow mountain!" Tulic Vlad said with frosty eyes but even that wasn't enough to draw any form of emotion from Sol.
"And cast them aside into the dangers outside where death is certain without any means of survival? I refuse!" Sol answered firmly.
Buzz!
All the leaders were stunned as they all looked up to look Sol in the eyes but even then he didn't shy away.
"Hallow mountain has laws yet you have no respect for them! You dare bring a fox spirit into the academy of Guardians! Do you know you can be charged with treason?" Madeleine hissed at Sol as her eyes surged with darkness.
"My tribe has a region to protect… they have a duty… we have proven our allegiance by saving Hallow mountain. And I intend to keep protecting Hallow mountain. How I choose to do it, is none of your business. If you wish to enforce your silly rules on me, be prepared to wipe out the entire sixth tribe!"
