It felt like a huge blow to her ego as the mentee of Living Reaper.“Mr. Yarde, why are you here? Did you save me?”Campian, who had just regained consciousness, seemed agitated.Kayson nodded and told him, “Speak less, Captain Wolke. Close your eyes and rest some more.”“Okay, I’ll take your advice, Mr. Yarde,” Campian replied gratefully.Kayson turned to say, “Naomi, I’ll leave the rest of Captain Wolke’s case to you and go check on the grandmaster who’s kindly helped them.”“Mn.”It felt weird to Naomi. Why did it feel like she became Kayson’s assistant? If her mentor were to find out, he would probably shake in a rage. Naomi sighed inwardly. She wanted to complain to her mentor that it was not that she lacked as his apprentice—Kayson was simply too unbelievably skilled!Kayson went to the elder grandmaster, who had jumped in to save the day. The latter’s hair and beard were white, and so was his face, as his vital signs were barely showing. His internal organs were also inj
Danson did as he was told before he exclaimed in delight, “I can do it! I can control my energy now!”The issue that had been bothering him for years was actually resolved today. He was so thrilled that he wanted to howl into the sky.Those who knew him knew that he was a chivalrous man who would step in at the sight of injustice, but they also felt bad for him—that life was not fair to him. He was such a kind soul, but this was the bad ending he received. The life he had was worse than most criminals.Danson had not hoped to be repaid for his kind deeds, but he was overwhelmed with emotions now that his injuries healed. Life had not given up on him!“Please accept this bow from me, Dr. Yarde!”Danson wore a solemn look and was going to get on his knees, but Kayson quickly stopped him.“Stop messing with me, Mr. Walde. If you hadn't acted in the name of justice earlier, my friends would probably be dead.“I should be the one thanking you!”Danson laughed heartily. “Haha, alrigh
An intimidating force rose within Jude’s body, scaring most of them in the cave.“Mr. Held, it’s a misunderstanding! This is a misunderstanding!” Felicity quickly spoke up. The force made her feel like she was being choked and filled her with fear.Campian’s expression morphed into terror and anxiousness. ‘Sh*t!’Although Kayson could not be blamed, Jude was from Eternalporium after all!Kayson turned to tell him, “Captain Wolke, if I kill him, you have to be my witness that he provoked me first.”Campian jolted and could not help coughing again.Jude snarled, “What a bold claim to say that you’d kill me!“In that case, why don’t you try me? Let’s see if you’re only sharp with your tongue!”Jude attacked with a palm strike right after he spoke. Domineering power launched itself into intangible steel energy that the wall of the cave cracked from the pressure.Danson narrowed his eyes as he cried in a low warning tone, “Dr. Yarde, watch out!”He dashed forward and countered wit
Kayson and the others left the cave and walked down to a relatively flat area.Jude was already standing there waiting, intimidating and authoritative, with his arms on his back.A strong man with sinewy muscles walked out from the woods. Each step he took unnerved everyone there. He stopped when he saw Jude.Jude spoke plainly. “You got away from an easy fight just now, and you actually dare come back again. Have you not realized the disparity of our abilities?”The muscular man did not say anything but kept an indifferent gaze on Jude. It put a frown between Jude’s brows as his expression turned icy. “I’m Jude Held from Eternalporium. Who are you?”“Gael Sky.”The man finally said something. That was all, though, before he stomped a foot and vanished in a flash.A menacing steel gale appeared the moment he vanished and swept toward Jude.Jude raised a brow and exclaimed, “Your inner energy is high in intensity. Interesting!”Gael appeared right before Jude and sent a punch r
Kayson shook his head and stepped away, asking, “What physical training technique do you practice?”“Gilded Guard.”Gael asked indifferently, “I heard that you practice the Titanium Technique?”Kayson nodded. “Yeah. I haven’t reached the heaven stage yet. I’m currently perfecting the stage of being a steel fighter.”“I’m slightly stronger than you then. I became a titanium fighter a few days ago,” replied Gael.Without using any power or energy, their fists then met with just the execution of physically-trained steel power.With the loud sound, Kayson staggered a few steps back, feeling his insides churn. He was alarmed. That was a heavy punch. The power of a titanium fighter was extraordinary!“Your Titanium Technique’s decent,” Gael commented calmly. “It’s unfortunate that I’m instructed to kill you.”Kayson arched his brow and asked, “So you’re from Eden Joy? This was a trap to lure me here today, and Willow’s escape was intentional?”That was because Willow was the only on
Gael was severely injured since he had taken Kayson’s Vulcan Firepalm twice. If he was still able to move about freely, the power of the Gilded Guard would be terrifying.As he half lay on the ground with two arms supporting his upper body, his gaze held no fear for death as he kept it on Kayson.“The Titanium Technique lives up to its reputation,” Gael praised sincerely after a moment of silence.Kayson did not get too close to him as he tossed the Lightning Charmboards out. The charmboards hovered above Gael on two sides facing each other. He asked, “You should recognize the Lightning Charmboard, right?”Gael nodded. “Master Gray’s work. Of course I know about it. I didn’t expect that I still couldn’t kill you even after deflecting your darksoul.“You even have Lightning Charmboards now, and you know how to use them… Who are you?”Kayson did not answer him but continued asking, “With what you can do, even if you aren’t unrivaled at the grandmaster level, there shouldn’t be many
Kayson thought for a while and said, “Sure. I happen to be short-handed as of the moment.” Gael grinned happily after Kayson agreed to it.Kayson flung a pill at Gael. After the latter took it, he exclaimed, “What is this pill called?”“Well…” Kayson was tongue-tied. After all, it was just a normal pill that he simply made.“You can call it the Regenerative Pill…”Gael nodded understandingly and asked, his voice filled with wonder. “Did you make it yourself? It’s awesome!” ‘Oh, stop it. This pill is useless. The only useful thing is the evergreen energy inside of me!’However, Kayson was not going to tell him that. He kept silent, and both of them walked toward the cave behind them.Felicity and the rest wiped the beads of sweat on their foreheads as they waited in front of the cave.Looking at Kayson, Felicity couldn’t help herself and exclaimed, “Both of us are grandmasters, but why is there such a huge difference between us?”Campian nodded. “It seems to me that Mr. Ya
At Admiralporium, at the Vice Chief's office…Jude had already gotten back, and Taylor was here.He was shocked when he saw how battered Jude was. After all, he was fully aware of Jude’s strength.Jude roughly ran him through the whole story, and Taylor nodded. Then, he said, “He’s going to be a tough opponent if he’s an expert in the Titanium Technique and a physically-trained grandmaster.” Randall hastily asked, “Mr. Held, is it true that everyone from the eighth division is dead?”Jude harrumphed coldly and replied, “Of course, they’re dead. That guy named Gael is strong. There’s no way they can make it out alive.”Randall frowned and continued worriedly. “I heard that Kayson is pretty good as well. Even Zeus was defeated and killed by him.“If he was with them, I’m afraid…”Jude was displeased when he heard what Randall said. “That kid? Do you really think Zeus is that powerful? He’s even weaker than Gael, and only you people think that he’s powerful. A skill like the Ti
