Chapter 319: Spar Against Merlin

Nice stunt, boy! Quintus looked at Miles with dissatisfaction. Miles, as he planned, won the race by flying over most of the track. Although it should have been impossible by normal means, technology was part of the track, and Quintus had to foresee this.

What now? He asked.

I will copy your superpower as we agreed, Merlin said with a smile.

Hmm, whatever. Quintus snorted and returned to the mansion with the duo. Merlin sat beside the old man and touched his forearm.

I hope it works. He was chanting silently. After more than ten minutes, Merlins forehead was covered with sweat. Quintus was lying on his sunbed with his eyes closed.

Miles looked at Merlin when he sighed in relief. Got it? He asked.

I did. Merlin laughed happily as he looked at Miles thankfully. Miles was happy for Merlin too.

Go. Now that you stole my power, you can leave me alone. Quintus harrumphed unhappily. Miles rose to his feet and wanted to leave, but Merlin was still sitting.

I dont know if it's worth anything, but I am sorry and thank you, Merlin said. Quintus looked surprised, then angry. But it only surfaced for a short second, before it vanished. Merlin left with Miles.

What was that about? Miles asked after they got in the car once again.

He is just a pitiful old man, lost his family. Merlin shook his head. Now that I have this passive ability, brother, I wanna try your hand.

Sounds good. Miles shook his head and drove off.

When he appeared behind Merlin who was forming flame vines, he swung his claws. Five Fingers Claw Death! Miles used the techniques with both his hands. He only mastered this lately, as it would take a toll on his body to form ten claws.

Ten fissures moved fast. From Merlins head, it was cutting the air. Just when it was about to clash with Merlins back, flames rose from the latter's back to stop the attack.

When the scorching ball of fire appeared, it blasted Miles away. Miles looked at the flames that were now taking the shape of a bird.

You mastered it? He asked with a smile.

Merlin showed him his ultimate once, and he knew the bird was his ultimate. The firebird screeched at the air and clawed at Miles. The claws were burning the air, leaving smoke in their wake.

Miles dodged the attack with a backward leap and looked at the fire with fear. So strong! He couldnt help but exclaim.

Now that I am at the peak of Form-Rank, I have mastered my ultimate fully. Its powers are not bad. Merlin walked slowly beside the bird and patted its head. The bird looked alive, as it enjoyed Merlins pats.

Miles smiled in excitement, as he charged once again. Merlin took a step back, as he wasnt expecting Miles to charge despite seeing his ultimate. The bird cried in irritation and charged at Miles. A giant ball of fire flew out its mouth to Miles.

When Miles realized, the ball of fire was already in front of him. Miles dodged it by hair threads with Frontal Rush. It was shameful to use Frontal Rush for escape, but Miles didnt have such qualms.

He appeared a few meters away from the bird and Merlin, only to charge once again. In no time at all, Miles felt his energy was running low. He was only low-tier, while Merlin was pinnacle-tier already. On top of that, Merlin had the inner world he got from Rayen, replenishing his energy.

Lets finish it here. Your energy is already depleted. Merlin stopped his attack when Miles faltered.

Okay. Miles panted heavily as he collapsed to the ground.
