339 339:A Deadly Confession[III]

Aels felt a massive amount of pain as his body was slammed against the unmoving ground with tremendous force.

The force of the slam momentarily disoriented him as his face became cloudy and unfocused.

The ground ruptured and cracked which was followed by a thunderous boom that drew everyone's attention.

However, due to the hours and hours of intense training, Aels had developed multiple instinctual reactions depending on the situation. In his confused state, one of them immediately activated.

Qi surged from Ael's body, instantly siphoning into the radiant armor he was currently donned in.

In the next instance, the armor erupted in a blinding radiance. The intricate lines etched on the armor ignited with fluid grace, tracing across its surface in a mesmerizing dance of luminosity.

They converged into a ball-shaped energy, pulsating with unbridled power at the center of the chest part of the armor, casting a brilliant glow that seemed to illuminate the entire hallway.

And in the next instant, with a force that would have sent Aels flying away if not for Leon's grip, it shot toward Leon's body.

The distance between Leon and Aels was so close that with how fast everything had happened, no one should have nearly enough time to even comprehend the fact that they had been attacked before they got turned into cinders.

But as soon as Leon had felt the Qi in Ael's body stirring, he had long since acted.

The air around Leon's torso appeared to warp and twist, as if being molded by invisible hands then a beam of light shot out.

Leon deftly manipulated the qi surrounding his torso and used draconic transformation.

His body became hard, rigid with scales growing upon his body acting as

And just as it seemed that the beam was about to pierce through Leon's body, it met the distorted scales surrounding him.

In an instant, the air around Leon shimmered and exploded.

The impact resulted in a powerful clash, unleashing shockwaves that rippled through the surroundings and scattering scorching remains across the area.

The explosion illuminated everything.

Su Lin and Gwen's eyes widened for a moment and then they lost thief vision due to the intense bright light.

That was a direct hit and a powerful force of impact might kill Leon for read. Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

Worry started clouding their minds until they heard a voice.

[My Lord is okay.]

Leon wasn't using a single shred of qi as he slammed Aels against the wall; in fact, he hadn't even used it to neutralize Aels.

This was the height of Leon's strength and how powerful he was compared to the other of his age

Only his passive strength was enough to not only keep up with Aels but also easily neutralize him.

He was already out of their league.

He was beyond where they stood.

If it was before he might not be strong but the brutality he had gone through at the hands of Uncle just made him a different breed of beast.

Except for the attack, where he felt threat and used Darkness elements to devour the partially successful light, still, now he still used brute force.

Every single inch of Aels's body was covered in smoldering golden light, making his body burn hot. If not for the thin distorted space wrapping around Leon's hand, he wouldn't have been able to hold Aels the way he was holding him.

Even Leon would get burned if he touched Aels without protection.

And then,

*CRACK*

The sound of something breaking echoed, but it wasn't the wall.

The sound was instantly followed by the splatter of something against a hard surface, and then,

"Haaaaa!" The intense, deafening scream followed.

Leon watched with a cold gaze as Aels screamed. The back of his head had just cracked, causing a significant amount of blood to splatter on the wall.

Incredible pain seemed to bring Aels out of his confusion as his eyes regained their clarity, the two eyes instantly meeting the cold, piercing dark gaze of Leon.

Contrary to what many would think, as he met Leon's cold gaze, Aels didn't tremble. In fact, he wasn't even the least bit scared.

There was only one thing Aels was currently feeling intense anger.

Through and through, Aels was a noble elf

Due to the nature of his bloodline, Aels had undergone intensive training from childhood. During this time, he couldn't count the number of times he had been inflicted with a massive amount of pain.

Despite that, the current situation felt overwhelming.
