Chapter 630: 630: Great General.



As soon as the duel had begun, Edward rushed towards Alexander.

'Not bad.'

Although he didn't know if it was due to Edward's own ego, or if he actually knew how

Alexander fought, it was still a good choice on his part. Alexander's main strength was his speed and fluidity.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

It would not be wise to be a sitting duck to an opponent that moved very fast. Not at all. Had Edward decided to let Alexander attack first, he may have lost the duel in an instant.

'But what is going to do with shields?'

Edward stopped a moment before he reached Alexander. Alex, who was prepared to dodge the moment the shields hit, was a bit surprised. He wondered what Edward was going to do.

At that moment, Edward jumped, his view was still blocked by his own shields, and his body would soon be covered by them. Alex still stood at the same spot.

"Take this!"

'Why are you announcing it, you fool?'

Both Alexander and Alan had the same, though, wondering why Edward would be dumb enough to announce his next attack. They didn't expect the show afterward.

No attack was made, Alex was confused. Edward simply shouted it and landed back on the ground, on top of his shields.

"Hyah!"

He swung his legs, but they were too far from their opponent, Alex could only stare in disbelief as he saw Edward swinging his legs at him. Was he fighting a clown?

And it happened at that exact moment, neither Alan nor Alex expected it.

Edward threw one of his shields, it slid towards the ground at great speeds but was stopped by Alexander's own foot, He finally expected an attack to come but instead of lunging towards him, Edward clad his hand in flames and fired those flames at the shield he still had.

'Why is he doing that...'

Alex could only draw two conclusions, Either Edward truly was a clown and was useless...or he had something else in mind. With all the information he had at the moment, he judged that it was related to the equipment he had.

And he was right. The shield caught between his foot began to light up. From it, a torrent of golden flame emerged, but before it could hit their target, the source was kicked away, right at Edwards face.

Edward ignored it and appeared from the pillar of golden fire that his shield exuded, he was close enough for a physical attack to work right now. His limbs clad in the same golden flame, he kicked towards Alexander's head.

Alexander blocked it easily, Edward let loose a flurry of blows, but all were blocked by easily by Alexander. The only damage he suffered being from the flames that still lingered on his clothing.

Alexander covered himself in a layer of his own special attribute mana, that of the [Null] attribute, and dissipated those flames.

"The heck is that?"

Edward asked, a bit shocked. The show he had put on just to distract Alexander had yielded only almost no fruit. He was well aware of Alexander's abilities and thus devised a good plan to make him drop his guard... but it was useless.

"My specialty."

Alex said, as he too moved forward. He coated his legs in lightning attribute mana and kicked towards Edward's knee, intending to make him crumble.

The fight had ended in his defeat, yet he didn't mind it. Alan was impressed, Edward held on

for longer than he expected too.

He thought the fool would lose in a few seconds, he didn't think the fool would be able to even hurt Alex at all. He was pleasantly surprised that Edward wasn't as weak as he had

thought.

"Nice fight."

Alex gave the pair of shields back, and suddenly shivered. He realized that his clothes were about to burn off completely and headed back inside the Arctic Titan.

"Edward you pervert!"

Making his own snide remarks along the way with a happy face. It made everyone inside the

Titan cringe in disgust. Alexander thought it was funny.

Alan helped Edward get up with a satisfied look on his face, he told Edward to wait for a

minute and went towards the Arctic Titan.

"You guys go on ahead, I have something to do with Edward."

All of them were a bit confused, Edward especially so, but they listened and went along their

way. Edward and Alan watched the Arctic Titan disappear into the distance. Eventually,

Edward couldn't handle his curiosity anymore and finally asked.

"Why did you do that?"

Alan, holding a particular book in his hands, grinned, and instead of answering, he asked his

own question.

"So, how much of that golden fire can you produce?"

Edward was a bit perplexed, considering Alan hadn't answered his question. He was also confused as to why Alan would make a face Maxwell would make when he was talking about the fire Edward could produce. Why would a frost dragon be interested in fire?

He answered, his voice shaking a bit.

"A lot?" That was, perhaps, the worst answer he could give right there.

Alan took out some wood from his inventory, one he harvested back on Gigantia a while back

and put it down on the ground, telling Edward to light it on fire with his golden flame.

He did so, still confused... He watched Alan open the book he had in his hand. He closed it

after a while and...

To Edward's sheer shock, surprise, confusion. Alan thrust both his hands into the golden fire Edward produced.
