Love At The Wrong Table

Yet, what shocked them was that Emmanuel hadn’t

been defeated even after exchanging more than a

dozen moves with Rhett,

“Black Wolf Team, you shall fall!”

In the next moment, Rhett let out a rare, thunderous

roar,

With overwhelming force, his fist suddenly

emerged beneath his red cloak, aiming straight at Emmanuel’s face,

“It’s over!” The crowd was stunned by the scene

before them, with those words echoing in their minds,

Mackenzie gripped the armrest tightly, cold sweat

breaking out on her forehead. Her heart pounded

as though a demon had it in its grip.

Suddenly, Emmanuel’s figure became hazy,

The next moment, Rhett’s seemingly inevitable

punch met nothing but air as Emmanuel’s figure

vanished!

“How is that even possible?”

The crowd gasped in shock.

Even Blake, who was watching the spectacle from a

distance, was taken aback by what he saw. He

grasped his unruly hair and shouted, ‘Ahhhh! How

did that scoundrel Emmanuel improve to this

extent? I’m now miles behind him!”

Rhett felt his body drenched in cold sweat.

He knew better than anyone that Emmanuel had

not just sidestepped his blow with sheer speed.

Rather, he had anticipated his next action!

He had experienced the same sinking sensation

during his fierce battle with Xarri in the ruins, except

Emmanuel was an even better fighter than Xarri.

Rhett spun around, his eyes fixed coldly icily at

Emmanuel’s fist, which was resting against his

lower back. He asked through gritted teeth, “Why

didn’t you take the chance to knock me out?”

“I don’t aim to harm you,” Emmanuel murmured,

letting out a heavy breath.

Rhett retorted with a cold snort, “If you don’t use

your full strength, not only will you be unable to

defeat me, but you’ll only enrage me further! The

consequences will be more than you can bear!”

話

Emmanuel sighed. He still needed Rhett’s

assistance. Injuring him now could jeopardize his

entire plan.

“That’s exactly why I find you irritating, Emmanuel!

I’m determined to defeat you or even kill you! If you

don’t put forth your best effort, it feels like you’re

insulting me!”

Rhett didn’t believe that Emmanuel had used all his

strength in that last blow. He didn’t appreciate

Emmanuel’s courteous gesture at all, and

Emmanuel’s intentional withholding of strength

only fueled Rhett’s burning humiliation.

He roared in rage and launched a brutal attack on

Emmanuel again.

Rhett’s actions grew more violent, and his heavy

blows shattered the arena into pieces!

Witnessing the scene, the Dark Night Islands‘

faction fell into silence.

In contrast, the Airspace Group members were all

visibly pleased. Freya even exchanged a knowing

look with Yasmine, showing obvious signs of

delight.

鏡 If things went on like this, Emmanuel would be lucky

just to escape without being killed by Rhett, much

less win the match.

To genuinely defeat Rhett, Emmanuel had to take

him down so badly that he couldn’t get back up.

Otherwise, Rhett’s stubborn nature meant he would

néver admit defeat.

Boom!

Emmanuel took another direct punch from Rhett,

ES s

which threw him back and made his arm feel

slightly numb.

As soon as Rhett charged at him again, Emmanuel

used the Art of Adaptability to preemptively grab

his wrist, thus preventing him from unleashing his

full strength.

“Why?” Emmanuel leaned close to Rhett’s ear and

said loudly, “Are you putting so much effort into

defeating me just to top the Dark Night Islands and

become the supreme leader of all the clans?”

“No!” Rhett smirked, “What good would such a

pointless title do for me?”

Given his years of reigning over the Dark Night

Islands, he would have declared himself the

supreme leader long ago if he wanted to!

Emmanuel realized that, too. Thus, he looked at

Rhett with even more confusion. He asked again,

“So what exactly are you fighting for?”

“For redemption!” Rhett answered firmly. “I failed to

safeguard the previous Saintess and allowed her to

leave the Holy Trinity. As a Holy Guardian, I cannot

forgive myself for this grave mistake. I must keep

Her Holiness here and complete the unfinished

mission left behind by the previous Saintess to

achieve redemption.”

Emmanuel was stunned by his words, unable to

understand how his thoughts had changed so

radically in a short time.

If that was his mindset from the beginning, he

would never have conversed with him like that on

those previous occasions!

What had happened between then and now?

Seeing the looks on Rhett’s and Emmanuel’s faces,

the Queen of the Dark Night Islands grinned

smugly.

The awestruck Yasmine couldn’t help but be

completely impressed by Freya’s prowess. Within a

day of Freya’s return, she had resolved the issue

that had plagued Yasmine for so long.

Regardless of how the fight turned out, the motley crew of the Dark Night Islands was unlikely to pose a significant threat to the Airspace Group. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
