Chapter 60 Ch 60 : Growth

" By the way, Mr. Cade, let's get inside. Our leader is waiting for you."

The bearded man said, full of hospitality. From his tone alone, no one would notice that there was something strange behind this.

Yet Cade, who had played the game from the start to the end, already had a guess about what was going on.

These guys, they were not fake. They were indeed Luna's father's underlings. However…

Cade entered the car and was quickly brought away by the group of guys in the black suit that named themselves Luna's father underling.

They went through the road of the Royal Capital, and they soon reached a place that, from the outside, looked like a big mansion.

" Mr. Cade, here we are. Please wait a bit. We will be letting you in soon."

The place where the car was parked was a shady, dark and secret place behind the mansion, where you wouldn't think it would be a part of the huge luxurious mansion.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Normally, no guest would be brought here, but Cade's case today was special.

Cade though, seemed a bit unfazed as he had already seen what was coming.

A few minutes later…

' Kid, there's someone coming in your direction with full hostility. And to make it worse, he seemed to be a lot stronger than you. Should I handle him for you? Kyhahahahah.'

Grigory's voice resounded as Cade subtly opened his closed eyes.

To be honest, he had started to get tired of waiting.

' No, it's okay. I'll handle this.'

Cade went outside of the car. His hand shone, and Spectre Dullahan appeared right next to him. With brand new armor that made him look even stronger than usual.

" Spectre Dullahan, prepare for a confrontation."

" Kyuu!!"

As they talked for a bit.

The enemy had finally come.

A white wolf with a tiny little figure approached Spectre Dullahan in a flash.

Yet the group of underlings didn't seem like they would make a move. It even seems more like they pretended Cade didn't exist and just watched the battle unfold from afar.

Its claw shone and was ready to unleash a heavy strike that could easily obliterate a rank (III) Arcane Card.

"It looks like you haven't really figured the situation out yet, eh? Spectre Dullahan, block it."

Cade gives an instruction, much to the bewilderment of the others.

The expression of the underlings became weirder and weirder as they watched Spectre Dullahan's sword clash with the little wold Claw, but the Spectre Dullahan was not losing ground.

'….What the hell? Shouldn't it suppose to be a Rank (III) Arcane Card? Unless…'

The little wolf was also confused.

It tried to perform a few more tricks, but no matter how hard he tried, Spectre DUllahan showed no sign of buzzing and only blocked his moves with a few sword strikes.

'Has he now reached rank (IV)?!'

Cold sweat formed on the forehead of the underlings.

'Such a fast growth, how could this be possible….'

Since Luna got interested in Cade, the underlings had done pretty deep research on Cade.

And they knew that not even a year ago, Cade's Spectre Dullahan. was only at Rank (I).

To grow three ranks in less than a year, if Cade was not a monster, they didn't know what else they could describe him with.

Yet the surprise was far from ending yet.

It happened then.

The little wolf knew he could not gain the upper hand in this form.

He was about to unleash his true power. But here, he felt a bit dizzy, and the head of the little wold was pressed down to the ground.

Thud.

"M-master's Fenrir…"

The underling's eyes trembled like an earthquake.

"Wha-what the hell?!"

"How could this be?!"

If before they were surprised by Cade, now they all shrieked in horror.

The bearded man and his goons quickly took several steps back and yanked their Arcane Card out.

They were afraid that mishaps would happen to the little wolf. Yet they were making the same mistake at the little wolf.

Spectre Dullahan's eyes were passed on them, and immediately they felt a terrifying pressure on their body.

It was as if death was passed on them, and they and their Arcane Card could only lower their head to the ground, thinking just what kind of monster had they offended here.

Unfortunately, Cade's display of power didn't last long.

When he thought that the little wolf would still have some tricks to play against him, a familiar girly voice appeared from the direction of the mansion.

" Father!!! What the heck are you doing? Haven't I said that it's enough?"

" Eh.. but I need to test my future son.."

" Haven't I said that it is enough?? Furthermore… I.."

Obviously, it was none other than Luna.

Her face was blushing, full of red as she looked at Cade, and next to her was a middle-aged man with a white suit and a calm-looking face.

" Anyway.. you should end this farce soon! There's no way you should treat a guest like this!"

" Okay okay.. I get it. Still, I don't think there's no need for you to get this agitated. After all, even our guest here seems to be pretty okay."

Luna's father pointed at Cade, which looked pretty much unharmed with Spectre Dullahan by his side.

" See? He is unharmed. And to make it better, he looked pretty calm."

" Ughh…"

Obviously, all the thing before was an act pulled by Luna's father.

Even the little wolf was actually Luna's father's Arcane Card though it had used some trick to suppress its rank.

But what made things worse here was she actually looked pretty fierce in front of Cade, and now Luna, who saw Cade was looking back at her intently, shyishly hid behind her father.

" Haha.. she is still too naive for this."

Luna's father laughed. But at Luna's glare, he quickly shifted his gaze at Cade.

" *Cough* Hello Cade, I'm Luna's father. I'm sorry for the inconvenience before, but I have heard about you a lot from Luna, and I couldn't help but see your strength by myself.

However... even though I had surpress my rank a lot, to think that you have a skill that could even trick my Arcane Card, you really are as brilliant as my cute little daughter here said."
