In that instant, Bacon questioned all of the magic classes he had in the past.
From his knowledge, magic couldn’t be stopped once the circle and chant were completed, not unless you decapitated the caster. Even then the completed magic wouldn’t completely disappear, it would just become extremely weak from a lack of magic power and would lose control.
That was what Bacon was taught… now then, what the hell was that kid taught? Who taught you magic? Slapping someone’s magic circle after they completed it, did your gym teacher teach you that?
What made Bacon feel worse was that his slap actually shattered his magic circle!
“Damn, you…”
Slap!
“Pork boy, if you have the energy to speak, why don’t you hurry and apologize.”
Lin Xiao ignored his questions and then walked forward and fiercely slapped him again!
This time Lin Xiao used all his strength! One slap was enough to knock Bacon off his feet and onto the ground.
Bacon was confused as he felt the ice-cold floor. He struggled around and squirmed like a turtle as he tried to get up, but because of the shock his limbs were powerless and he couldn’t get up, it was humiliating!
No, Bacon wasn’t even thinking about how humiliating it was, he was only thinking about one thing… how was Lin Xiao able to destroy his magic?
“Could you…. really be Lin Xiao?”
Mina finally realized why the other two trusted him so much, their trust didn’t simply just come from his strength, it was because of realms.
Yes, Lin Xiao was in a completely different realm. To him, whether it was Mina, Bacon, Gerrard, or even Deborah, none of them were in the same realm, they were just no-name passers-by.
“Hey, stop pretending to be dead! My demand is simple, just apologize. Don’t make me kill you, that won’t be fun.”
“Kill?”
When Gerrard heard how causally Lin Xiao said it, it was like he was just about to kill an ant and it was only because Lin Xiao found it troublesome and that’s why he didn’t do it.
“Please forgive him!”
Gerrard quickly helped Bacon beg for forgiveness before things got out of hand.
No one expected it to come to this, and who would have thought that Bacon would lose so badly? It was just a few minutes and all the youth did was take a couple of steps and slap his palm around…
“What? Gerrard, why…”
When Bacon heard Gerrard’s voice, he didn’t think about apologizing but instead, he questioned. That’s right, he lost today, but even if he dies he wants to understand what that kid did!
Gerrard turned to look at Lin Xiao like he was asking for permission, and when he got a nod, he rushed up to Bacon and quietly answered him.
“Baron Bacon, although I’m not a magician, I heard of something.”
“What…”
“Completed circles can’t be completed, but can be overloaded!”
“Overload?”
“Based on what I know, if you forcibly inject a large amount of magic into a completed circle, several more times than the original magic, up to ten times more, then the circle would instantly shatter from being overloaded!”
“Overloading a magic circle with magic power? So, you’re saying…”
“Yes, that means that normal-looking youth has tens of times more magic power than you.”
“So he’s that Lin Xiao.”
“Yes, he’s Gotham’s dragon!!”
“I can’t… puh!”
Bacon suddenly stopped and spat out a mouthful of blood. Probably out of anger…
“Gerrard, I, I…”
“Sigh, don’t say it, Baron Bacon… please apologize to them.”
Gerrard sighed and tried helping Bacon up, but he was already broken as he lay half dead on the floor.
“Sigh, aren’t you a little too mentally weak, I was just playing with you, how did you get so frightened?”
Lin Xiao couldn’t bear to continue after seeing his pathetic state so he walked back to the others.
“I wanted to act as his father and make him apologize to his mothers, but alas he broke.”
If Lin Xiao was his father and they were the mothers, then wouldn’t that mean they were Lin Xiao’s wives? How shameless… how would Elena and ShenDai Ying not be able to tell what he meant? ShenDai Ying just smiled and silently accepted it while Elena quietly called him a pervert.
But after all that, they forgot about the unpleasantness from earlier, even though Bacon was rude, now he probably wouldn’t dare to say whatever he likes anymore, so they didn’t need to waste time and got Lin Xiao to hurry up and get on with business.
After hearing the ‘masters’ orders, the servant Lin Xiao naturally listened and ignored Bacon to get back to business.
But only Deborah knew where the fruits were, but she still wasn’t here, so Lin Xiao could only ask someone.
“Mina, is Deborah… hm?”
“What are you all doing!?”
Lin Xiao wanted to ask Mina, but before he could finish there was a deep female voice that came from the door!
Lin Xiao could tell instantly from the voice that it came from a strong woman, as he followed the voice back to the door, he saw a woman that was several heads taller than him.
Sex lost meaning for her. She had short hair and was really tall and muscular. From afar she looked like a small giant, when she walked through the door her body even blocked the light coming through and dimmed the room.
“What are you doing!?”
That ‘giant’ rushed into the room and swept her eyes across the room and stopped at Gerrard and Bacon and sternly rebuked them!
“I was just gone for a bit and you guys are fighting in the reception hall!? Do you want to be fired!”
“Manager! It’s not like that, actually we…”
“What’s going on, hurry up and tell me!”
The giant knew it wasn’t that simple, so she quickly walked over and picked the two of them up off the ground, and then questioned them.
“That’s Deborah, right?” Lin Xiao quietly asked Mina.
“Yes, that’s Deborah.”
“Does she know where the sacred crystal fruits are?”
“She should.”
“Okay, then I’ll go ask her.”
“Eh? W-why are you just going over like that…”
As expected, normal people like them wouldn’t be able to understand how Lin Xiao does things.
Lin Xiao walked over after confirming it was Deborah and tried asking about the fruit. At that time, Deborah just finished asking about what happened and when she noticed Lin Xiao approaching, she was a step faster.
“Kid, you’re Lin Xiao?”
“Yes, and you’re Deborah?”
“Bacon insulted your companions earlier and you slapped him a few times to get him to apologize, right?”
“Yes, what about it?”
Lin Xiao responded honestly and met her sharp gaze.
Deborah frowned and looked angry.
Was she going to help Bacon?
Mina who didn’t know anything was still guessing while Deborah was already acting!
“Idiot, then why aren’t you apologizing?”
“Ah? … ah!”
Whoosh.
A figure suddenly flew by everyone’s eyes.
