Upon hearing Gerald’s casual reply, all the eyes of the Quantocks present instantly widened in great wrath.
“You…!” growled Xylon whose expression had turned extremely ugly.
“…Since you’ve said that, does that mean you’re able to split the stone, Brother Gerald? If you are, then please widen our horizons…!” added another old man as favonovel.com and the others gritted their teeth.
“Of course, I can. What’s so strange about splitting it anyway?” asked Gerald as favonovel.com looked at them before shaking his head with a bitter smile.
“Fun fact, the Zekterite is immune to lightning since it holds similar properties to it. For further clarification, there exist spiritual items that are produced naturally between heaven and earth. With that said, the item will gain immense resistance against the element it is attuned to. Even so, magic arts can be used to split the Zekterite since they’re much more powerful than regular lightning!” explained Gerald.
“You ignorant youth! How dare you boast so shamelessly about nonsense like magic arts!” retorted one of the elders who simply couldn’t take how arrogant Gerald was anymore.
Xylon himself didn’t bother stopping the old man. After all, what the elder had just said was exactly what favonovel.com wanted to express as well.
“Nonsense, you say? Well, allow me to demonstrate that ‘nonsense!’” replied Gerald with a subtle smile as favonovel.com pinched his fingers together as though favonovel.com was holding a sword’s blade…
After murmuring a barely audible magic chant, light began glowing from where his fingers were pinched… before what seemed to be an electric orb formed between his fingers!
Staring wide-eyed at the cackling cerulean orb that seemed to be bursting with electrical energy, everyone found themselves taking a step back as Gerald flicked the orb of lightning upward!
The second favonovel.com did that, wild winds and lighting suddenly appeared out of nowhere as thunderous roars echoed throughout the area as well! With how strong the blades of wind were, everyone there felt as though they were in danger of being sliced if they weren’t careful.
“…W-what…?” stuttered those who could still speak in nervous voices as they continued staring at Gerald in utter terror and disbelief.
Before they could even recover from their shock, an explosive sound suddenly burst from the sky, causing everyone’s hair to stand on end as a massive bolt of blue lightning struck the Zekterite!
While the scene was nothing short of dazzling, it also embedded a massive fear among all who witnessed it.
Seconds after yet another explosive sound was heard, several jaws instantly dropped when the Quantocks realized that the stone had been smashed to pieces from that single strike!
As the debris settled and the wild winds died down, the nights soon returned to its initial peace and silence… It was almost as though nothing had ever happened…
Naturally, the biggest change was how dumbfounded all the Quantocks were. For what seemed to be an eternity, none of them dared to even speak or breathe… until finally, Xylon knelt before Gerald.
His action prompted the rest of the Quantocks to do the same as Xylon cried out, “You… You truly are an incredibly powerful person, Master Crawford…!”
