—boom!!
A blast of energy erupted, causing rocks to fall as Bran attacked Gunta with a flick of his hand. He had led Bran into a trap. This was the greatest of crimes.
"Hehe," mid-air, Gunta performed a backflip and landed outside the cave with a sly smile. Leon was his benefactor and closest ally. If not for him, he would probably have died or been sold into slavery back in the Dead Wood Forest in Elodoria.
This was not betrayal; he had done what he was supposed to do.@@@@
"Have fun," Gunta raised his hand, and abruptly, several spikes of blood shot out, completely destroying the cave entrance and causing it to collapse. He had closed the path of escape for Bran while dodging.
"Hmp!!" Watching this, Bran sneered. It looked like there was no getting out of this. Not that he needed to.
"Pillars of Life"
Bran waved his hand, and several pillars glowing with a beautiful luster appeared from thin air, illuminating the damp cave. He had never been afraid of the dark or things that went ’bump’ in the middle of the night.
His eyes moved rapidly, quickly picking apart every shadow that looked remotely human. Even though the cave was illuminated to some degree, much space was still covered in shadows and darkness. The pillars only lit a small part of the cave like candles in the dark.
"Got you." After scanning his surroundings for a while Bran’s eyes finally came to a focus on a figure seated atop a giant rock about 70 meters away from where he stood.
Noticing the gaze, the figure’s eyes snapped open as he looked lazily at Bran. "Sigh," the young man exhaled in relief and calm before breaking into a smile. He then stood up slowly, matching Bran’s gaze from his elevated position.
"Hmp!!" Bran sneered at the sight. Leon was arrogant, standing on a position of elevation and looking down, this was derogatory in this world, especially from a junior like Leon to a someone like him.
Yes, the young man on the giant rock was none other than Leon and With a step forward, he jumped from the rock onto the ground.
—boom!!
As the pillars piled up, Leon snapped his fingers, and dark purple light shot out swirling around him corroding the pillars into nothingness.
"Hm?" Bran was taken aback for a moment before slowly nodding in understanding. He had momentarily forgotten that Leon had a treasure that could nullify the life pillars.
"Good thing I came prepared." Bran noticed Leon had changed. His aura was different, his strength was different, and even the color of his hair had highlights of red. The kid was clearly prepared.
But when had Bran ever been scared of plans?
Bran smirked before reaching into his grimoire and pulling out a short sword with two straight edges bound together by a bridge of iron.
On its side was a bold inscription: "Slayer."
It was the name of his weapon, a tool forged in the brimstone of the earth. Its blades could cut through the very essence of mana itself, and its might was legendary. If anyone found out this blade had reappeared, it would turn the entirety of the three regions on its head.
Fortunately, the weapon had been fragmented a very long time ago, and Bran only had a piece with him, but it would do for dealing with Leon.
"Okay," Leon nodded slowly while stretching his body. It seemed Bran was finally getting serious. He had to get serious too.
In the next instant,
—woom
Leon leaped forward and clashed with Bran.
—boom
The resulting sonic boom sent shockwaves throughout the cave, even causing Kang, who was scaling a different mountain deeper in the range, to look back in shock.
He wondered what was going on. But naturally, this thought died quickly as he heard the screech of the Rocs at the top of the mountain.
They had started fusing.
