Chapter 99 - Running Away!

n

n

nThe power displayed by Minos and Ruth's techniques was so great for their levels that both Leroy and Jeff were in complete disbelief at this.

nAnd even if the power emitted by Ruth was not so different from that of Jeff, Minos' blow was much stronger than Leroy's!

nNot only that, but Leroy had noticed that by the time he entered that area within the black ring in the sky, his speed had slowed, and he was gradually losing spiritual energy!

n'What the ** is going on?' Leroy thought as he tried to understand the changing events.

nHe was supposed to win this fight in one stroke, and then he could have fun with beautiful Ruth. However, the reality was quite different. Even before his attacks collided, Leroy was sure he couldn't beat Minos!

nGreen Shield!

nAnd even before he was attacked, Leroy immediately activated his defensive technique in an attempt to prevent injuries from Minos' attack.

n'That wretch! But I doubt that his attack technique alone can destroy my attack and my defense together! Whoever has more spiritual energy will be the winner of this fight!' He thought confidently.

nAnd at the same time, bodyguard Jeff looked over at Minos and Leroy and sighed as he thought. 'If we extend this fight, I can win this girl. As for the young master, I think he can hold it until I finish here...'

nJeff then turned his attention to Ruth and started to fight her.

nPow!

nAt the same time, when Jeff and Ruth had started to fight each other, Minos and Leroy finally clashed.

n'Ehh? Why isn't he using his blow to defend against my attack?' Leroy thought, seeing Minos not giving a damn about his attack.

nBoom!

nThe shield, which appeared to be made of several roots and was being used by Leroy to defend himself when he was struck by Minos' blades of air, was instantly destroyed, emitting an explosion sound in the area.

nPuff!

nThe claws of spiritual energy that appeared in Leroy's hands slowly hit Minos' chest. Still, it barely scratched the young Stuart's skin before finally breaking!

n

"Ahhh!

"

nLeroy let out a great cry of pain as he took several steps back, feeling various cuts through his body. The wounds were not enough for him to be in danger of death, but the cuts still hurt a lot and certainly diminished his proficiency in battle.

n

"Miserable, I'm going to kill you!

" He shouted in an angry voice.

nHe, the young master of the Chambers family, a high-ranking power in the northern region of the Central Continent, had never been hurt like that before!

nLeroy was feeling humiliated because of this. He was injured by a person who had not even reached level 40.

nThat would be a blemish on his battle records!

nAt the same time, Minos did not listen to what Leroy was exclaiming. No, there was no point in talking during a fight.

nThat was just about killing or being killed!

nSpatial Sword!

nAgain his attack technique was activated when Leroy felt his body getting heavier and saw Minos starting to launch other attacks towards him.

n'Shit! Why does this guy have so much spiritual energy?' He lamented in his mind.

nLeroy did not understand how Minos could continue to launch his techniques as if he was not worried that his spiritual energy would run out!

nFor him, only with the previous attack should Minos be almost exhausted. However, the reality was ruthless for Leroy, who only had Black-grade techniques...

n...

nWhile Minos and Leroy exchanged blows, Ruth had already spent half her energies, having several abrasions on her body. It was not easy for her to fight with such a difference, but she was still trying her best to hold on to her opponent.

nPow!

nJeff took another punch to the face as he staggered to the side.

nHe was as hurt as Ruth, and he, too, had already spent almost half of his spiritual energy. And with each passing moment, Leroy's bodyguard became more and more scared.

n'How can she be so strong, just being at level 46?' He thought to himself. Jeff was starting to be afraid that these two youths they attacked were of even more substantial power than the Chambers family...

nIf that were the case, if they didn't eliminate these people today, their lives would certainly be taken another day!

nBoom!

n

"Ahhh!

"

nIt wasn't long before Jeff realized that his young master was rapidly deteriorating, to the point where Leroy was unlikely to survive the following three attacks unleashed by Minos.

nWhile Leroy agonized in pain because of the many cuts in his body, Jeff suddenly ran towards the blades that Minos had thrown, counterattack it.

nHe had no choice. If this continued, even if he could beat Ruth, his young master would still be killed. That way, they could only retreat by the hour and get ready for revenge at another time!

nUpon seeing this, Ruth immediately ran to Minos, standing in front of him to defend against any attack sent in his direction.

nSwooish!

nBoom!

nAn explosion occurred as soon as Minos and Jeff's techniques touched, while remnants of the attack spread in all directions, forming powerful winds in that place.

nMinos held on to Ruth's waist while the young girl protected him from being hit by the enemy's technique.

nSimultaneously, Jeff grabbed Leroy by the waist, running at full speed from this location. If they didn't run away, a tragedy for him could end up happening.

n

"Young master, we can't go on with this...

" He said in a low voice as he moved quickly.

n'Shit! Shit! Shit!' Leroy cursed in his mind. 'I'll remember this, bastards!'

nAt the same time, as Leroy was taking his oath, Minos spoke aloud in an icy tone.

"Leroy Chambers, huh? Escape while you can. One day I will rip your head off!

"

n

"Worm!

" Before Leroy and his bodyguard finally disappeared from Minos' sight, that was the only word heard.

nSeeing this, Minos blew out a sigh of relief and looked at Ruth.

nShe had many abrasions on her body and looked very pale at the moment. He then touched her face and asked in a concerned manner.

"Do you have any serious injuries?

"

nRuth shook her head in denial and then said in a tired voice.

"No, it's just external injuries. I will be fine after two days.

"

n

"That's nice. Don't worry about those two. One day I will kill that bastard myself.

" Minos said in a determined tone. For him, the problem with Leroy could already be considered to have crossed the line, where there could still be chances for reconciliation.

nAt the moment, Leroy was an enemy that had to be killed!

nHe couldn't let such a scum live, especially after the things he had said he would do to Ruth.

nRuth might not be Minos' wife, but their relationship was excellent at the moment, and he couldn't bear to offend her. Therefore, he felt an indescribable hatred, perhaps as great as the hatred he had for those responsible for his father's death!

n

"Hmm...

" Ruth nodded in agreement. She could handle it herself, but she felt perfect knowing that Minos was on her side. Although it is not good to depend a lot on others, having someone to trust was an excellent thing...

n...

nWhile Minos and Ruth rested elsewhere in that forest, their two enemies, Leroy and Jeff, had already covered dozens of kilometers. After some time, they finally stopped to recover, in a place full of trees and with a stream.

nLeroy then snarled as he leaned against a tree.

"Shit! We don't even have the name of that bastard!

"

nUpon hearing this, Jeff, who had just taken some spiritual pills out of his spatial ring, said in a confident voice.

n

"Take it easy, young master. I'm sure that boy will participate in the Spiritual Tournament. That way, we can discover his identity when the competition starts.

"

nLeroy calmed down a little upon hearing this and started thinking about what he could do. He then said.

"I cannot beat that wretch. Even if I had a weapon like his, it would still be a difficult fight. So, I can only use my intelligence to form a strong ally during the Spiritual Tournament, who can help me take care of that guy.

"

nJeff then sat on the ground, and before he started to cultivate, he thought of something terrible, but he said nothing to his young master. 'I just hope that those two are from the North of the Central Continent. Otherwise, we will be dead in a very short time...'

nHe hadn't said anything about his crazy thinking to Leroy because it was doubtful. There was no reason for people from outside this region to come to this place.

nIt would be a waste of their precious time!

nHowever, he still couldn't help thinking about the challenging strength that Minos and Ruth showed.
