A Tier 8 Blood Hunter at the platform among the crowd scrutinizes the Steel Gum Rubber Tentacles in awe and says: "It is rumored that this Johan showed in some instances that he uses a kind of substance. Did you know it has both the properties of gum and rubber? Now, why the fuck does it look like a metal?"
"For me, that sounds stupid. Property of both rubber and gum? How is that even possible!? That doesn't conform to physics at all!" A random scout near the Tier 8 Blood Hunter scoffed. He doesn't believe it! Not to mention, the purple tentacles look solid and deadly enough to penetrate metals.
An old man suddenly decided to jump into the conversation. "You brats talk too much. Can't you just watch? The results would speak for themselves."
The blood hunter and the other guy stopped talking when the old man joined their discussion. Who was the old man? He was Mirai the Cold Executioner! An old man with rich experience and only one step away from becoming 5th Tier Destiny! And be promoted to 5th Seat Officer. He had enough contribution points, but the Scout Regiments lacked one of the main ingredients required to concoct his pill.
As long as he ventures outside and encounters the Apokalips, which are the main ingredients in his recipe. It would be a sure-fire ascension to Tier 5. Not to mention, the old man was one of the few who chose the Shinobi Path. Shinobi Path's ingredients are 3x more difficult than the Hunter's Path.

"This is a Legacy Ability? It seems the rumor about you being a lost high-ranking clan member seems true. I just don't know which high-ranking family it was. Would you mind telling me?"
Amelia looked at Caleb and asked.
'Good question!' Caleb's eyes lit up. This question would help further solidify the misunderstanding regarding his taboo abilities. With a lot of people watching, the information would spread fast and wide. At that time, he didn't need to constantly explain the origin of his abilities. Furthermore, even though it was just a cover. Gradually, it would become truth in the eyes of the people. As he thought of this, he forced out a serious look on his face and said:
The force of the three tentacles was already enough to push her and force her to retreat by four steps. Now, there were still the other three that were about to hit her neck. Explore hidden tales at empire
Can't do anything about them. She could stare helplessly as the sharp tip of the tentacles stopped perfectly one inch from her neck.
If this was a real battle. She would have been already dead. 'Too strong...' This is the only thought on her head now.
Feeling the tip of the pointy tentacles on her. There was no doubt that they would easily be able to penetrate her neck like a hot knife through the butter. She couldn't help but feel complicated as she thought about how an upstart overpowered her to such an extent. It could be said that their fight was just too one-sided she didn't even manage to gain an upper hand throughout the fight.
She also knew that her opponent had just joined a year ago.
'He's a monster.'
"I give up." Amelia smiled and there was no struggle on her face as she admitted defeat. Although she lost. She was someone who could accept a loss when it was due. She can't say anything. Her opponent was just better.
Hearing this, Caleb nodded with appreciation. Although Amelia was rather disdainful from the start. He could tell that Amelia fought with passion. She was a warrior.
Caleb deactivated the Steel Gum Rubber substance and looked at the announcer who still hadn't recovered his composure.
After all, everything was just too sudden. The fight had ended so quickly that everyone on the platform had no time to react.
