"Baam!"Following the clash of their power, Eugene's power tore through Leon's attack and the aftermath of it swarmed toward Leon.Without panicking, Leon remained still and took Eugene's attack with the Mirror of Sovereign. At the same time, he launched a Double Attack and his true energy at the Initial Innate State filled his fists, before they slammed against Eugene's chest.Eugene was caught off guard and was instantly sent flying into the distance as he spewed blood from his mouth."H- How's that even possible?!"Damian, Penny, and Nigel were all stunned.They all thought that Leon was far too weak to defend himself from Eugene's attack. To their bewilderment, not only did Leon succeed, he took one step above to injure Eugene, who was in the Peak Overlord State, instead.Through the initial shock, Damian fell into despair as he wished that Eugene could defeat Leon to avenge, only to be disappointed by the reality."T- This isn't possible!" Eugene covered his chest and fumb
Eugene hesitated when Leon remained unmoving. Though he guessed that something was wrong, he did not know that Leon possessed the Mirror of Sovereign.All he knew was that he faced Leon directly and Leon managed to summon his true energy even though he was supposed to reach the bottom of his strength. Since that was how Eugene was injured, he did not dare to face Leon off directly if Leon continued to attack, but Leon simply stood without attacking or guarding, which confused him.After a moment of hesitation, Eugene narrowed his eyes viciously. "Die!"He did not know what was up Leon's sleeves, but he knew that Leon was only a man and once he took Eugene's attack, he would suffer severe injuries.Eugene cast aside all doubts and slammed his fist against Leon's chest.Learning from the mistake he made earlier, Eugene did not place all his power into the attack and saved his strength just in case."It's over.""Did Leon freeze out of fear?"The looks on Damian and Penny darkened
"Damn you, kid. So you have been hiding a defensive tool!" Eugene anchored himself and held his injured arm with a dark expression.Leon took his attack without suffering any injuries, so he realized that Leon must have a defensive tool that could fend off the attack from someone in the Peak Overlord State, or Leon would never be able to injure him.Meanwhile, Penny and Damian both realized the same thing as well."I see. Leon managed to beat Uncle Eugene because he has a defensive tool," Realization dawned on Penny."No, that's not all! Leon himself is already in the Advanced Overlord State and with the defensive tool he owns, he managed to win with ease," Damian said.He was far more experienced and could tell that Leon was at the Advanced Overlord State judging from the speed and explosive power he displayed earlier.As he predicted, after taking the Dragon Pill, he temporarily rose to the rank of Intermediate Overlord State and since no one of the same levels would be able to
"Eugene Scammell, take this!" Leon scoffed.Eugene's arrogance enraged Leon and he was not about to let Eugene go, so he charged at Eugene, launching attack after attack."Damn it!" Eugene's expression darkened.He already knew that Leon had a defensive tool and did not dare to face Leon directly, so he kept backing away to dodge Leon's attack.As a martial artist in the Peak Overlord State, Leon would not be able to injure him further even with the Mirror of Sovereign's help. However, he was injured and his left shoulder shattered, so he could no longer fightatn full strength.Leon, on the other hand, did not waste any energy guarding and focused on advancing fiercely.Soon, Eugene found himself in a position where he had no chanceofn fighting back. When he realized that he was no match for Leon, he wanted to run, but could not leave Nigel behind."Stay down!" Leon took advantage of the split second that Eugene was distracted and struck him with a Double Attack.Eugene barely
"Leon, what are you doing? Don't come any closer!" Terrified, Nigel kept backing away."What do you think I'm doing? I've given you the chance to apologize, but you wouldn't take it! If that's the case, there's no mercy for you!" Leon said coldly, before stomping onto Nigel's legs in full force without hesitation."Don't!" Nigel gaped in terror, but before he could say anything else, his bones were shattered. He wailed in misery and passed out immediately."How dare you, Leon?! Just wait. We'll make you pay!" Eugene glared daggers at Leon as he watched Leon destroy Nigel's legs. Despite how desperate he was to tear Leon into shreds, he was severely injured and could not possibly defeat Leon."I'll be waiting to see how you are going to make me pay! Consider this a warning. I won't do anything else to the two of you out of my respect for the first bloodline, but if something like this happens again, I'll eliminate every single one of the members in the second bloodline!" Leon warned
"Leon has a defensive took and only managed to injure me with its help," Eugene explained."A tool? I see!" Realization dawned on Rick as he finally comprehended how Leon could defeat Eugene, who was in the Peak Overlord State."Dad, Leon broke Nigel's legs! You have to avenge Nigel!" Eugene gritted out."What?! Damn you, Leon Wolf! How dare you?!" Enraged, Rick waved his arm and fired up his true energy to attack Leon."Hang on!" Damian jolted and took a step forward to stand before Leon, "Uncle Rick, Nigel was the one at fault here. It's bad enough that Eugene wouldn't listen to reasons and insist on bullying Leon, are you going to bully a junior as well?" Damian questioned sharply."So what if I do? He broke Nigel's legs and injured Eugene deeply. Can't you tell how ruthless he is? I'm going to destroy him to avenge Nigel and Eugene!" Rick roared furiously."It looks like you're determined to make everything his fault! Nigel was the one who started all this and Leon was only d
"What? Leon, have you gone mad?" Damian could not believe what Leon just said.Though Leon had a defensive tool and managed to defeat Eugene with its help, Rick was one of the two martial artists in the Emperor State in the family since he reached the level a few months ago.There was a gigantic gap between the Peak Overlord State and the Emperor State. Since Leon was not on a high enough level, he would not be able to utilize the tool to its full potential and it was considered impressive that Leon managed to fend off the attack from a martial artist in the Peak Overlord State.Damian simply did not think that Leon would be able to do the same to Rick, who was in the Emperor State, and to rely on a defensive tool alone would be deadly."I'm completely sane! Don't worry, Damian. Taking care of this old twat will be a piece of cake!" Leon said confidently.As Damian predicted, the Mirror of Sovereign could only fend off attacks from martial artists in the Peak Overlord State or lowe
"What's the meaning of this, Rick? The second bloodline has gone so far and sunk so low that you would bully juniors?! Do you have no respect for the first bloodline at all?!" Patrick roared and glared at Rick coldly."I disagree with you, Patrick! Leon broke Nigel's legs and injured Eugene in the most ruthless manner! I just want to seek justice for them. How am I wrong?"? Rick protested."Enough with your excuses! Nigel started this and Eugene came after Leon without listening to reason. Even if they were injured, they had it coming!" Patrick said.Though he agreed that Leon had gone slightly too far, Patrick's patience for the second bloodline ran out ever since they plotted to take over power during his birthday party. The fact that Leon injured Eugene and Nigel avenged the first bloodline, in some way."Patrick, do you insist on protecting Leon?" Rick's expression darkened."I do! Rick, don't think for a second that I don't know what's going on inside your head! You are just
