The Legendary F Rank

Chapter 89: Traitor.

Haru looked down at the glowing blue ball in his hand. 'Should I absorb this now or should I first find my way out of here?' He thought and then looked over at the cloud feathered eagle.

It looked back with pain in its eyes like something was going to happen to it now that the snake was dead. It then looked up toward the sky as a deep siren rung out from above them.

The sounds of feathers rustling against each other descended from the top of the cliff as hundreds of black coloured eagles slowly flew down from the sky.

The cloud feathered eagle hid behind Haru as they came closer and closer howling the same wailing siren. Each time they made that sound the eagle cowering behind Haru would shiver in fear. It was much like the fear that Kun had when he saw the snake pretending to be a bird.

Haru stood there not knowing what to do as they all landed in a circle around the island that they were stood on. A gentle and feminine voice sounded out.

"Hand over the traitor, human. Don't push me to do something that I don't want to do." One of the birds said and then stepped out from the middle.

"Traitor? Which traitor? I haven't seen one." Haru said whilst trying the feign ignorance.

"Don't play stupid with me, human. We have tried to live in peace for this long but if you don't hand us that thing behind you I will personally wage war against your race." The bird said.

'A bird is threatening the wage war against the whole human race? This has to be a joke right? Even a farmer could just shoot it down from the sky.' Haru thought and then couldn't help but laugh.

"What is so amusing? Don't try to play games with me. There is no way you will get out of this alive if you don't do as I say. You are outnumbered, You won't stand a chance against all of us." The bird warned him more angrily this time.

Haru laughed again. 'I'm being threatened by a bird. This is one of the most ridiculous things that has ever happened. No one will ever believe me if I tell them about this.

"I'm warning you. If you don't start taking this seriously. I will have no choice but to kill you." The bird said.

Haru's attitude changed at the direct death threat. He became serious and glared at the bird that was speaking to him with resentment.

"And just how do you plan to kill me?" Haru asked.

"Humph, Don't act like that now. I know you are just at the Qi creation stage. A weak human like you doesn't even get the right to act tough in front of me." The bird replied.

"If I am so weak, Then why haven't you decided to take this so-called traitor by force? You know, I think you are just scared to make the first move. I'm willing to bet that I can kill all of you without so much as lifting a finger." Haru bragged and then puffed out his chest to add to insult.

"Don't be stupid. I haven't made a move yet because I don't want to kill a child, It would leave a bad taste in my mouth. I suggest you stop acting tough before you get yourself killed for real." The bird said sounding like she was getting fed up of Haru's behaviour.

"Well, I'm not handing over anything. And if you try to make a move against me, I will have no choice but to kill all of you. So be a good little birdie and fly back to whichever tree you nested in." Haru then chuckled at his own joke.

That one seemed to get to all of the birds present as they all started howling the same sound as before. The bird that spoke to Haru quickly calmed them all with a flick of her wing.

"Just remember you brought this on yourself. You pushed me to do this so try not to feel any regret before you die." The bird said and then brought down her wing signalling the other birds to attack Haru.

Haru smiled as the birds flew towards him. He showed no sign of fear as an immeasurable amount of blood lust emerged from his body. It was like he was certain that all of them would be killed.

The bird that had spoken to him felt the change in the atmosphere as she sent the other birds to attack him.

"Get away quickly! Stop your attack!" She shouted but it was no use. They were already closing in on Haru.

"Black Star Sect," Haru whispered underneath his breath.

Clouds rolled over the sky at the top of the cliff face as thunder started to strike all around. Bolts of lighting mad their way in between the two cliff faces and reached the very bottom, Striking the water with so much force it was instantly vaporised.

A golden ray of sunlight then made it's way to Haru's current location. All of the birds stopped their attacks immediately as a great fear ran through their body. Every fibre in their body was telling them to escape but the paralysing fear was too much for them to handle.

They all remained motionless as a voice made its way between the two cliff faces.

"Who dares to say the name of our sect!?" Teacher Li's voice called out just like last time. But for some reason, he sounded tired. Haru then remembered the night before he had been drinking.

"Hey, Teacher Li," Haru said in response to the voice.

"Oh, It's just you? Please try not to call me like this. It's tiring and my head hurts. But what do you want?" He asked.

"Well, I fell off a cliff in the forest. And then this cloud feathered eagle decided to save me. I stayed down here for a little while and tried to figure out a way to get back up to the top.

But then suddenly these birds flew down here and told me to hand over the eagle that saved my life or else they will kill me. Naturally, I can't sacrifice my rescuer. So I wanted to ask you if you could help me.

They outnumber me, I don't think it's fair for them to bully someone with numbers, Do you?" Haru asked with a grin slowly forming across his face as he spoke.

They actually dare to come into our territory and try to kill a first-generation disciple? It would be a dishonour to the founder's name if I didn't kill all of these little birds." Teacher Li said before another deep rumble emerged from the sky.

A single index finger pushed its way through the clouds. It looked like a god decided to smite someone as the size of the hand was much bigger than any building on earth.

The hand then impacted the two cliff face and ripped apart the rock as a deep channel began to form beneath the hand and it made it's way deeper and deeper into the abyss before striking the floor.

There was a shock wave that sank into Haru's very core as he stood in disbelief as all of the birds in front of him seemed to implode on themselves. Chunks of meat and litres of blood sprayed all over the walls and painted them red.

Haru then looked at all of the damage this one attack had made. 'I wonder if I will ever get to the point where I can destroy a cliff with a single attack? That sure would be amazing." He then sighed, knowing that he was still far away from achieving anything like this.

Teacher Li's voice then rang out once again.

"Okay, now that that is over with let me take you back to the surface." He said before the gigantic hand changed its direction and scooped up both Haru and the eagle and held them in place firmly as it began to ascend back toward the clouds.

As Teacher Li brought his hand up toward the sky they passed the surface of the ground and continued up into the sky. As they passed, Haru saw Remi on the ground. She was kneeling at the edge with her face against the floor. It looked like she was begging for forgiveness.

She was so distracted that she didn't even realise that Teacher Li had used his power to rescue Haru from the bottom of the cliff.

"Remi! What are you doing" Haru shouted as he glided up toward the sky.

Remi then looked up from where she was to see Haru stood on top of a huge hand flying toward the clouds.

"Haru? Haru!" She screamed with excitement as she saw he was alive.

"Hmm, What's this?" Teacher Li asked with his thunderous voice crashing through the clouds.

An eye appeared in the sky as he looked down at his hand to see that a small metal chain had come up into the sky with him. It seemed to the cloud feathered eagle. The chain gave off the feeling of Qi and seemed to be restraining something.

He was still sat in bed when he looked down upon his hand made of pure Qi, When he saw the chain, he just shrugged his shoulders before carrying on his way and then pulled both Haru and the eagle through a portal.
