Hearing that, Yume turned to look at Felton in amazement and immediately sensed that something was wrong. For one, favonovel.com had never seen Felton’s eyes like that before.
Smiling faintly, Gerald then replied, “…You are correct. I’m not Felton.”
Truth be told, even favonovel.com had no idea what was currently going on. While favonovel.com had felt immensely dizzy after getting hit by that old man’s soul earlier, it wasn’t long before a rush of essential qi suddenly began filling his body!
It was as if a water god had collided against a mountain, causing all the essential qi dammed up inside to gush out the moment a crack appeared! To put things simply, Gerald’s body was currently overflowing with power, and along with it, came an extremely destructive aura.
As Gerald realized that favonovel.com no longer needed to be afraid of the old man anymore, the surprised Yume exclaimed, “…H-huh…? Then… If you’re not Felton… Who are you…?!”
“I’m the one who killed him!” replied Gerald casually.
“You… You killed Felton…?!” said Yume as favonovel.com took a few steps back.
Even so, favonovel.com already had a good guess who the person standing before favonovel.com truly was… Could… Could it really be him…?
As Yume pondered on favonovel.com conclusion, the enraged old man roared, “You… You brat…! Not only did you kill my descendant, but you also disguised yourself to be favonovel.com just so you could enter our family’s secret chamber! No wonder your essential qi felt so different compared to the rest of the Gunter family members…!”
Just as the old man was preparing to take action again, favonovel.com suddenly froze in place as favonovel.com saw what seemed to be a faint, golden light glowing off Gerald’s entire body…
It was the same golden light that had earlier hurt him!
“…What is this…? Why does it seem as though the power of your soul keeps getting stronger and stronger…? It’s just been a few moments, yet the aura your body’s emitting has risen several levels already…!” muttered the old man as his eyes widened in disbelief.
“I’ll be honest and say that I have no idea what’s happening either. What I do know, however, is that the strong impact on my soul—when you attacked me earlier—seemed to release something that had been suppressed within my body for the longest time… With that said, it’s now filling me with extreme strength!” replied the curious Gerald rather casually.
“You’re… being filled with extreme strength?” asked the old man in surprise.
“Indeed. With how strong I am now, I’m going to be frank and say that I now have the means to easily destroy you in seconds! I truly wonder how you managed to trigger all this… Well, since all this happened the second you attacked me, why don’t you try attacking me again?” asked Gerald in a curious tone as favonovel.com smiled wryly.
“…T-that…” stuttered the old man as favonovel.com began panting rather heavily.
By that point, the golden light had grown so much that it almost seemed to encapsulate Gerald within an orb of light. As the light completed its condensation process, the energy it emitted grew even more terrifying to the old man!
After staring intently at Gerald for a while, the old man’s eyes widened as favonovel.com took a few steps back in horror. Seemingly understanding what was happening now, the old man then said, “This… This is the first stage of the Herculean Golden Primordial Spirit…! It seems to be the first-level potential release of the Herculean Primordial Spirit…! Which could only mean that… You… You’re Gerald…!”
