Following that, an explosive sound could be heard!
Everyone could only watch wide-eyed as all the surrounding leaves began gathering in front of Yusuf, specifically in front of his chestâ¦
The leaves then began balling up, and once the orb of leaves was large enough, Yusef bounded forward, using his chest to launch the ball of leaves forward!
At that moment, another explosive sound could be heard as the orb of leaves flew so quickly at Gerald that it was hard to even see it properly!
In response, Gerald positioned his fingers into a sword formation before declaring in his mind, âGo forth, Storm-Forged Blade!â
Immediately after, Gerald flicked his fingers in the direction of the orb, shooting a blade of light out in retaliation!
Explosion upon explosion ensued as the two attacks flew toward each other⦠Until finally, the large ball of leaves was sliced clear in two, creating the loudest explosion yet!
Everyone present could only take a few steps back in their shock, utterly stupefied by the sheer amount of power they had just witnessed.
ââ¦What?â muttered the now bewildered Yusef. That boy⦠how could he have dealt with his strongest attack so calmly?!
âYou⦠Youâve already entered the Ninth-rank of the Rune Realm? How is that possible? When did you even make that breakthrough?!â asked Yusef in his disbelief.
âOnly yesterday, to be quite honest. Itâs been quite a while since my training halted at the Eighth-rank, you know? To think Iâd finally make it through!â replied Gerald with a faint smile.
âYou⦠You couldnât have managed to do so without external help!â retorted Yusef, still unable to believe all this.
True to Yusefâs words, Gerald had only been able to breach the Ninth-rank of the Rune Realm with the aid of that cold pond. With the stimulus from the pond in addition to the ample holy spirits here, Gerald was truthfully able to get to the next rank rather smoothly.
If he was to be completely honest, even Gerald hadnât anticipated such rapid results.
Regardless, Gerald really wasnât too keen on dealing with Yusef at the moment since there were so many people from the Mackowski family present.
With that in mind, Gerald then said, âApologies, Yusef, but I still have some affairs to deal with. With that said, Iâm afraid we wonât be able to determine a winner today! Rest assured, Iâll definitely come look for you once Iâm done with everything! Iâll be taking my leave now!â
Following that, Geraldâs body seemed to flicker for a moment before disappearing completely!
âAfter him!â shouted several of the Mackowski familyâs disciples.
Before they could even make a move, however, Yusef raised his hand before shouting, âStop! Donât pursue him any further!â
âWhat? But why, master? Didnât you say we couldnât let him remain alive?â asked a few of his men.
âHumph! If he was alone, Iâd surely have dealt with him! However, there seems to be an exceptional person helping that b*stard! None of you may have noticed him, but could sense his presence. With that said, we would have had to deal with two very powerful menâwhoâve both entered the Ninth-rank of the Rune Realmâif we continued chasing him! Thatâs something even I have to admit we wonât be able to handle!â grumbled Yusef in a resentful tone as he clenched his fists tightlyâ¦
Meanwhile, the snap of whip could be heard within the Quartermain familyâs mansion located in Jaellatraâs Bario City.
âHurry up already! If you donât finish what youâve been ordered to do in time, I wonât be merciful!â
shouted a mustached middle-aged man.
Appearing to be a housekeeper of sorts, the man had whipped the woman before him since she was taking a bit too slow just to wash a few vegetables.
Regardless, though the woman was furious, she didnât dare to say a wordâ¦
Of course, she was none other than Geraldâs elder sister, Jessicaâ¦
