Kayson was astounded. “A diamond ball of this size? How much would it cost?”Chase chuckled and said, “I have no idea, but I figure it’d probably be worth a few hundred million?”Kayson knew about diamonds well enough to know that a gram of a top-grade diamond was sold for at least $15,000. Chase said, “It’s a highly valuable item for those who can’t acquire it but it’s only a normal-value item for those who can acquire it easily.“However, girls like sparkling things like this, so it will make a great gift for someone.”Kayson remembered that Lindsy’s birthday was next month and wondered if she would like this. He spent a lot of time at Bwell Therapeutics, and Lindsy would ask him about his birthday during their occasional casual chats, and he would ask her back. Hence, he remembered Lindsy’s birthday. “Please help me get one then, Chief Rivera. Remember to get it processed to look better and tell me its price.”Chase said in all apparent seriousness, “Why are we talking
”That’s… aquale energy!”Kayson was pleasantly surprised and immediately absorbed the wisp of energy into his body without any hesitation. He already possessed the wood element evergreene energy and fire element vulcan fire energy, and now he had acquired aquale energy. He had already acquired three out of the five elements!“If I acquire metal and earth element energies, won’t I be able to become a Five-ele Smasher?”He had not put much thought into this initially because it would be very difficult for him to gather all five elements. It was not something that he could conjure just by learning a technique. Instead, he needed five types of energies with similar qualities. After he digested the aquale energy, his water-element energy was of the same quality as his evergreene energy. The vulcan fire energy, on the other hand, was slightly lower in quality. He would need to figure out a way to improve its quality. “My visit to the Killicks was not wasted…”Kayson beamed wi
Zidane’s expression was slightly unpleasant, as Quentin ‘Hard Punch’ Wolke was a powerful peak-stage grandmaster-level fighter he had met many years ago. However, Quentin had looked older at the time than he did now, and Zidane understood the reason behind that. It was highly possible that Quentin had achieved a training breakthrough and become a Warlord. Zidane feared that he was no match for an ultra-powerful fighter like Quentin. Zidane attempted to buy some time by asking, “Is Sir Osborn insistent on going to such extremes?”Quentin cracked a mocking smile, and his gaze showed his contempt. “Zidane, I’ve heard of you before too.“I’ve heard that you have trained the Thousand Presence technique. One’s presence can be found anywhere, but an ordinary person would not be able to detect your presence when fighting against you.“Judging by your demeanor, I can see that you’re serving Kayson. That’s a pity… Why did you choose to walk this doomed path?”Quentin heaved a sigh be
Quentin walked past her and continued to move ahead. Bob felt a chill down his spine, yet he blocked Quentin’s path shakily. “You’re an outer energy fighter?” Quentin took a glance at him nonchalantly. Then, he let out a sneer and said, “Ha!”A loud shout burst forth from his mouth along with a gush of strong force that spread in the form of vibration. Bob felt a buzz in his head, as if his brain was exploding. Then, he frothed at the mouth. Yuna had a mental breakdown instantly and called out, “Bob!”Quentin walked past them and threw a punch at the door. The door frame was dented, the wall cracked, and the door was blasted away instantly. Then, he took a long stride and walked into the room. Kayson was training his aquale energy with his eyes shut, and Quentin cracked a ruthless smile upon witnessing the scene. “Stop!”He let out a loud roar while his presence and inner energy burst forth from him simultaneously. Kayson let out a muffled grunt and opened his eyes abr
Kayson replied nonchalantly, “Aquale Armor formed from aquale energy.“Your punching power is domineering and has an incredible damaging ability. I could defend myself with something as powerful, but that’d require a higher level of physical training prowess.”Quentin contemplated it and asked, “So you had two layers of defense on you just now? The first was incredibly tough and formed by steel power.”Kayson nodded. “That’s the Titanium Technique.”Quentin sucked in a breath. “Steelification Doyen’s Titanium Technique? No wonder it’s so amazing…”Kayson corrected him. “The Titanium Technique isn’t Steelification Doyen’s. He stole it from someone else and called it his own.”Quentin scoffed, “Whoever gets the manual gets the skill too. Simple as that. Only the weak would say something like this.”Kayson was speechless. How could he sound so entitled when he had snatched somebody else’s possession?“So the second layer of your defense, what you called Aquale Armor, is the energy
Zidane recovered pretty fast and gasped. “I—my injury… How did it heal so fast?”“Grandpa, Kayson healed you.” Vivian spoke up swiftly.Zidane was shocked as he looked at Kayson in disbelief. What kind of technique was this? He had never heard of it!Kayson did not explain. He only said, “Grandpa Zidane, the wounds on your face will be fine after applying some cream tomorrow.”“Okay… Right, but what about Quentin?” Zidane asked gratefully.Bob, who had been waiting for this question, answered in a hurry, “Master Gould, that guy is dead. You have no idea what happened. Mr. Yarde killed him very easily!“He was in complete disbelief before his death!”Zidane was baffled. “Kayson, y-you killed a Warlord-level expert?”“Quentin wasn’t a real Warlord. He was still a step away, but he was probably stuck there for two to three years,” Kayson answered.Zidane had never met a real Warlord, so he did not know much about it. Even if Quentin had only been half a Warlord, though, Kayson wa
Chase held on to his phone at Admiralporium as he contemplated this. In less than a minute, he seemed to come to a decision and dialed a number.“Chief Rivera, what made you call me at this hour?” An old man’s voice was heard from the other end of the line.Chase’s tone was respectful. “Mr. Pattingson, Mr. Yarde’s gone to the Osborns.”Waylon sprang up from his bed. “What’s he gone there for?”“The Osborns sent someone to kill him. He got angry and wanted to go settle the score with them,” Chase said.Waylon’s tone was serious. “Got it. I’ll ask Swenson to depart right away.”“I’ll leave you to it then.” Chase’s smile and tone were polite.When both of them ended the call, Chase breathed out in relief. Eternalporium’s patrol team was coming, and he dared not simply act either. Waylon was probably the only one in Skyriv whom the patrol team dared not penalize directly, which is why he made the call.Kayson was so medically skilled that Chase did not hope a miracle doctor like hi
“Scram.”Quentin had disrupted his practice, which was hundreds and thousands of times more infuriating than being in the way of someone raking in profit. In ancient times, people might even have looked for his home to kill his family and vent their fury.Both grandmasters were scowling, but they moved to the side obediently. There was no way they would want to die so abruptly. As for the other Osborn experts, they were cowering in a corner looking horrified.Then, a few people came from the direction of the bedroom. Sir Osborn was in the center of the entourage, while the man walking ahead was Paxton, who had met Kayson.Paxton barked once he saw Kayson, “Yarde, what are you doing here?!”He looked enraged. “Didn’t I transfer the money? How dare you come all the way here? You think the Osborns are pushovers?!”Kayson was unfazed. “Oh, it’s you… I know, so whatever’s between us is over.”“Then why—”Paxton was interrupted by Kayson. “I’m here because something else happened ton
