While many people were anxiously or excitedly watching Ulmer getting shocked and burned inside the ethereal energy sphere, Oscar was eating salted peanuts. “Mm… I wonder how he’s going to get out of that. It won’t be easy even for me.”Neodus was grinning. “Yeah. This is what I wanted to see. Roast that bastard to death.” He was already planning on taking all of Ulmer’s possessions after his death, so he was loving what he was seeing. (I’m sure he has many systems in his possession. I’ll take the two most important systems and then give the rest to Vincent. That should keep him satisfied.)Neodus knew that Vincent wouldn’t protest against that because Vincent wanted to become the emperor next. Compared to becoming the emperor, losing a couple of systems was nothing, especially because he would get his hands on the legendary Emperor System, which was passed down only to the emperors of Syslon.“I can hear his cries, Son,” Regina snickered. “Make that bastard cry even louder so I can he

Vincent flew straight down toward Ulmer like a thunderbolt. “Celestial Punch!”Ulmer almost punched at the opponent, shouting, “Spirit Breaker!”Vincent’s fist released an energy that vibrated and exploded like a bomb that could destroy everything around, including even the bacteria in the air. However, Ulmer’s fist blasted its way through Vincent’s attack and struck his face, crushed his face and flattened it as Vincent got sent flying like a dart into the distance.Vincent’s body burst through the barrier put up by the royal knights and kept flying farther than people’s eyes could see.The faces of everybody froze in utter silence as nobody had expected to see something like this right after Vincent had released his Celestial Lion mode, something which everybody in the nation feared because of its reputation.A bright golden energy was covering Ulmer’s fist.“What’s that energy cloaking his fist?” Hessia frowned. “It is golden? I’ve never seen anything like that.”The energy around

“Dark Dagger Strike!” Brianna threw a dagger first to get Ulmer’s attention, and she secretly released the second dagger in a curving manner, controlling its trajectory with the help of a string.The dagger flew like a lightning bolt and nearly struck Ulmer’s temple.Ulmer managed to catch the dagger at the last second. His hand started bleeding. “That was close. How did you control the dagger midway?”Brianna flicked the string, which sent a pulse of energy along the string.Ulmer still didn’t notice the string, but he felt the noise of the vibration passing through the string. He instinctively tossed the dagger away, and it immediately exploded.“Damn,” Ulmer frowned as he deflected the pieces of the dagger that came flying at him. “The dagger blasted into pieces? What sort of magic is this?”Brianna formed two new daggers and threw them at him. “Infinite Parallel Claw!”The daggers suddenly multiplied in number and became hundreds as they all zoomed in on him.Ulmer immediately pun

The yellowish orange light coming from Brianna’s daggers was giving off a strange frequency that affected Ulmer even though he was standing at a distance from her.“It really feels like I’m standing under the sun in late summer,” Ulmer uttered. “My skin feels like it’s burning. That’s a lot of concentrated energy she’s releasing.” He released golden spiritual energy through his fists as well. “I wasn’t expecting her to be this strong, but this is good, too. I will feel satisfied after I beat her.”[Just be careful so you won’t lose.] Dove warned.“I don’t plan on losing to anybody, especially her,” Ulmer replied and rushed toward her.“Meteor Strike!” Brianna waved her dagger and sent an arc-like slash toward Ulmer. It reached him in the tenth of a second, He jumped and dodged it while keeping his body parallel to the ground just for that brief moment. The arc-shaped slash went onto strike the colosseum wall and cut its way through the barrier put up by the royal knights and then then

“Why aren’t you attacking me?” Brianna asked. “You were rushing toward me just now, but after tasting my attack, you stopped in your tracks. Why is that? Are you afraid to come closer now?”“Yeah,” Ulmer nodded twice, “I think I’m afraid that I might see your ugly face if I get any closer.”Ulmer’s words shocked everyone in the crowd, though Mirianne was secretly giggling.“How dare he speak like that to the princess!”“He should be beheaded right now!”Some young men from noble families voiced their opinions pretty loudly. They wanted to back the princess in whatever way possible as they hoped that she’d take notice of their efforts. If they got lucky, they might even become a friend of hers, and who knows, they might even end up marrying her.“You want to behead me for saying something that came to my mind?” Ulmer raised his middle finger and showed it to the nobles.“What’s he doing?”“Why’s he raising his finger like that?”“Maybe, he’s got some sickness or something?”“What a foo
