Chapter 202: A Shocking Outburst
When the duo challenged Nero, many other onlooking talents looked on with interest as some spoke to themselves.
"Hmm, those are..." One talent was about to say something, but another beat him to it.
"Oh, that's Lira Kadelin and Andrew Smith, I didn't think that two top-class talents from those Hatman's would even take the platform together. They even challenged him at the same time, haha, it appears that there's some grudge between them," Another person said with keen eyes.
"Of course there is, haven't you heard about the shame Delkan brought to the society? Rumors have it that it had started from a feud between that Wild Silver," Someone else said.
"Oh really, well, this should be quite entertaining," The former person said with a smile.
Avollo, who sat on the side of the Blood Steel Society, looked at the scene with interest, showing no intention to help. Judy, and Kenra, however, had dark looks on their faces as they complained.
"That's so mean. Are they honestly thinking of challenging him together?" Judy said.
Yullia, who stood nearby, replied, "So it seems, there's no rule against it."
"That's a bit unfair," Kenra said.
Yullia shook her head and replied, "Maybe so, maybe not; in the end, it all depends on him; since he truly wishes to proceed with it, we should give him the benefit of the doubt."
While Kenra and Judy listened to those words, Yullia's eyes glowed as she thought to herself, 'Little handsome, come, let this lady see where your arrogant came from.'
Elly looked at the battle platform with a bit of concern; she knew that the duo weren't simple characters.
On the other hand, Nero held his scythe in battle posture, his manner a bit icier than before as his magic power flowed around his body. He stared at them and spoke, "Let's get on with this; since you're from the Hatman's, I won't be holding back in the slightest."
"So arrogant, don't go thinking that we'll be easily beaten like that Poison Boy, Aromatic Arrow!" Lira said as her blond hair flowed forward when she leaped back and made a seal with her arms, placing her index fingers together in the form of a cross.
Suddenly, a pink mist formed from it, it condensed into a pink arrow that fired towards Nero like a ray of light. Much like her, Andrew had also acted, using his strongest killing move from the start, his arms rippled with his bulging muscles as he clenched his palms together in a fist, the force so great that a few vibrating magic powers formed around it.
"Vibrating Pulse Fist!" Andrew yelled as he invoked his skill, punching his arm from his current position; a surge of violent vibrating magic power blasted outward towards Nero, forming into the shape of a giant fist that threatened to crush all in its path.
"Ahh, both of these attacks are even stronger than a child of Everdale; well within the ranks of Quasi Greater Monsters of their level, both are about 415 to 425 Combat Power, such excellent talents." Kailua Meng commented with a flicker in his eyes.
Hatman Chief Dale looked at this with a smile as he spoke, "Huhu... those two, they've truly grown quite a bit, looks like I might need to reward them..."
Xu Waren, who would have normally commented, remained silent at this, eyeing Nero with suspicious eyes, but as for Pale Brightwood, she kept indifferent to everything as if nothing could move her.
Reil clicked his teeth at this; he thought to himself, 'Boy, if you have anything to show now, I'd suggest you do it now. We can lose, but certainly not to this two-faced piece of shit.'
While everyone had their thoughts, Jillian watched this scene from the side of the Hatman's and smirked while speaking, "It looks like he was all talk since both of them used their strongest move, he should be finished."
Delkan, who stood silently nearby, had an odd look on his face as he stared at the scene, his fist balling up tightly as he thought.
'Even if it were me, I wouldn't be able to withstand their combined attacks, tsk, it looks like that bastard Jillian has gotten to trash him first, but fine, I'll get my chance for vengeance soon enough.'
Doppleman, who led this batch from the Hatman Society, stared at the battle platform with calm eyes, but suddenly, his face turned dark, as did Hatman Chief Dale, who rose from his seat when he looked at Nero in shock.
"Such strong killing intent, such strong power eruption, this isn't good!" Doppleman said in alarm before his body vanished, leaving behind the confused-looking Delkan, but the now shocked Jillian, who seemed to have only sensed something.
"How can this be?!" Jillian said in alarm, but everything had already changed at this time on the battle platform.
Before everyone had their reactions, Nero, who faced the attacks from Lira and Andrew had a sinister glow in his eyes; his silver magic power fluctuated with a tinge of red as even the edge of the scythe glistened in a sharp ray.
"Both of you can go to hell, Blood Reaper's Dance!" Nero shouted as he employed his Four Point Unity Steps, pushing his body forward at incredible speeds, almost like a blur.
He had arrived before Lira's arrow in a flash before twisting his body and swinging his scythe. His body soon after vanishing due to the speed at which he moved to leave behind only his scythe's edge, which transformed into a series of scarlet arcs of blade light.
Instantly, these arcs of blade energies scattered about, crushing the pink arrow before soon after, shattering the vibrating fist wave. They then swept towards both the shocked-looking Lira and Andrew, who stared at the attacks with horror having no way to avoid it.
Both could sense the violent and menacing power behind each arc of light, and they knew that once hit, their fate would be more unfortunate than good.
'No, we underestimated him! We're finished,' The duo thought as the lights soon after descended, creating a violent scene.
