Words:2067Update:22/06/26 13:08:10
When Kieran strode out from the study room and closed the door behind him, Anne Aldrich Augen's laughter didn't even stop.
Anyone who heard the laughter would feel the delight from Anne Aldrich Augen.
Including … Kieran.
In fact, as one of the parties involved, even if Kieran knew it was another test from Anne Aldrich Augen, he couldn't do anything about it.
If he didn't need Anne Aldrich Augen's help, Kieran wouldn't mind teaching her an unforgettable lesson.
But now?
Leaving had become Kieran's only option.
Kieran returned to the corridor that he was in last night. The broken window and torn carpet were replaced with new ones.
Kieran's knowledge wasn't enough for him to judge the value of those things.
Though, judging from Anne Aldrich Augen's character, those things must be worth a fortune.
"That damn woman!"
When he thought of Anne Aldrich Augen, Kieran recalled the scene from before and unconsciously commented on her.
It wasn't until he saw Mayer standing beside the corridor did he swiftly put away the messy thoughts in his heart.
Both of them should be on the same side now but against a powerful fighter, Kieran knew what he should do was the right thing.
Those who lost their vigilance would die the worst.
Kieran didn't want to be that kind of person.
"You are very strong!"
Mayer said in a straightforward and direct manner.
Just like the man's chiseled face, it was filled with rigidity. It sounded stiff and stiff, like a robot.
"I want to spar with you!"
Mayer didn't hide his thoughts at all.
Or in other words, a person like Mayer didn't know how to hide his thoughts.
Kieran frowned at the suggestion.
It wasn't disgust.
It was an accident!
[Discovered sub-mission: Spar]
[Spar: Fighter Mayer wishes to spar with you to sharpen his own techniques. It is also a rare chance for you, especially if you win …]
…
The unexpected sub-mission had completely exceeded Kieran's expectation.
However, after being stunned for a moment, Kieran immediately came back to his senses.
"Alright!"
With the appearance of a Side Quest, Kieran naturally would not reject it.
"Follow me."
Seeing that Kieran agreed so readily, Mayer's rigid expression softened a little. He turned around and led Kieran to an empty space behind the manor.
This was another garden outside the main building of Augen Manor.
Unlike what Kieran had seen before, this place was more primitive.
Most of the flowers grew on the ground, not in pots.
This gave the flowers a different sense of vitality. When the afternoon breeze blew, the fragrance unconsciously drilled into the nose, making people squint their eyes in satisfaction.
Of course, Kieran was definitely not one of these people.
With the words "Can we begin?" Mayer stared at Kieran like a tiger watching its prey.
When Kieran nodded, the razor-sharp aura on Mayer exploded right away.
It was like a barrel of explosives filled with razor-sharp blades was ignited.
The feeling of the razor-sharp blades slicing his face made Kieran squint his eyes unconsciously.
Kieran didn't even need to look at the battle authentications that kept popping up in his vision. He knew that if he didn't have a high enough Spirit, he would have been scared before the battle even started.
"Spirit Battle Technique?"
Kieran unconsciously thought of it while squinting his eyes.
It wasn't the first time Kieran came in contact with a battle technique that used one's own aura and aura to oppress the enemy. Whether it was Lawless's nagging narration or the enemies he had faced before, all of them allowed Kieran to experience Spirit Battle Technique firsthand.
However, it was the first time Kieran came across one as violent as Mayer.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the pressure from Mayer's aura was similar to [Half-dead's Gaze]'s [Deadman's Gaze]'s effect.
Kieran could clearly feel the similar pressure.
But …
The pressure was still too weak against Kieran whose strongest attribute was Spirit.
Even though Kieran was facing a -3 penalty in all attributes, his SS + Spirit still allowed Kieran to feel the pressure like a breeze caressing his face.
However, as time went by, the breeze unconsciously grew stronger.
Fuuu!
The breeze turned into a strong gale.
The strong gale leveled up into a violent gale!
However, Kieran wasn't moved at all.
Standing there, Kieran felt like he had turned into a mountain.
He stood there unmoving!
KABOOM!
A heavy explosion later, Mayer moved.
The fighter took a step forward and instantly, a violent gale wreaked havoc!
The flowers on the ground were uprooted and the petals mixed with the soil scattered in all directions. The petals were like an unknown ferocious beast, throwing itself at Kieran.
BANG!
Kieran raised his leg and delivered a direct kick.
It landed right on the monster's head!
Amidst the heavy bang, the petals and soil splattered everywhere, revealing the monster's true form: a fist!
Mayer's fist!
The veins on his fist bulged like the roots of an old tree, propping up his almost metallic skin.
Gak Tss Tss!
Amidst the teeth numbing noise, Mayer retracted his fist and Kieran retracted his leg.
But right after that, both of them attacked each other again.
Wuuu!
The right fist turned into the left fist.
The right leg turned into the left leg.
They collided again with each other with a whistling force.
BANG!
BANG BANG BANG!
The second time, the third time, the fourth time …
Both of them separated after a brief clash and clashed again.
Heavy bangs sounded ceaselessly and ceaselessly.
The situation lasted for a full minute.
BANG!
After another head-on collision, the two of them separated again.
But this time, both of them didn't move again.
Kieran showed a sense of astonishment.
He had tried his best to overestimate Mayer.
However, Kieran didn't expect Mayer to be able to go toe-to-toe with him barehanded.
Although it was just a head-on clash without any techniques.
Compared to Kieran's astonishment, Mayer was overwhelmed.
Both of Mayer's hands were trembling, his almost metallic skin had a layer of bruises visible to the naked eye. It was utterly inconceivable to Mayer.
One needed to know that his hands had been tempered thousands of times with the secret technique of inheritance.
Even when facing a gunshot, it wouldn't leave any marks on his hands.
It wasn't a description but a fact.
Because it was also a part of the tempering.
Soreness, numbness, pain.
Three kinds of feelings mixed together and were transmitted to Mayer's heart from his hands.
It reminded Mayer of the time when he first set his goal to become a fighter. Back then, he had to experience hundreds and thousands of such feelings every day.
It was a strange yet attribute feeling.
Huu!
Mayer took in a deep breath.
His rigid face was overflowing with real fanaticism and excitement.
"Again!"
Mayer growled.
The techniques from yesterday were used again, Mayer appeared in front of Kieran as if he teleported. His right hand formed a blade and slashed down at Kieran.
This time, it was different from the previous head-on clash.
An extremely special energy appeared on Mayer's right hand blade.
It seemed formless.
Yet it had a form.
It should be transparent.
But ripples appeared.
The hand blade was as sharp as a real blade!
