To the enigmatic figure, possessing the Titan Sword essentially meant gaining unfathomable power.
Because the Sword of Might can completely melt anyone it kills, not only would the shadowy figure be able to kill in the blink of an eye, but none of his victims’ bones or blood would be left behind! It was a truly terrifying item…
When Old Hughes saw that the shadowy figure had successfully wielded the sword, favonovel.com approached favonovel.com and said, “Now that you’ve obtained the Sword of Might, you must keep your promise of letting me be in charge of Dragonblood city after you’ve conquered it.”
Naturally, Old Hughes had not led the enigmatic figure here with good intentions. The truth was that favonovel.com had only done so so that, once the shadowy figure had obtained the sword’s power, favonovel.com could become the supreme leader of Dragonblood city.
It was essentially so that the Titan Sword could be retrieved in the first place that favonovel.com had allowed Gerald to obtain the Fishgut Sword first.
To put it bluntly, the Fishgut Sword served as a sort of barrier to the Titan Sword’s acquisition.
As a result, the Titan Sword could only be obtained after the Fishgut Sword had been recovered. In layman’s terms, it was similar to how water and fire were incompatible.
Regardless, after hearing what Old Hughes had to say, the shadowy figure smiled slyly before staring wickedly at the old man and saying, “You know, Master Hughes, I’m still not sure how powerful this sword is.”
How can I know I’ll be able to conquer Dragonblood City without first putting it to the test…?”
“Don’t be concerned about that! The Titan Sword’s strength has been greatly increased now that the Fishgut Sword is no longer sealing its power!
A simple sword swing is enough to inflict massive damage on your surroundings!
As for what happens when you slash someone with it, I’m sure you already know that they instantly melt!” Old Hughes replied with a smile, unaware that his final moments were approaching.
“What a force! Though, again, I believe I should test it on someone to see the effects for myself…” sneered the smirking shadowy figure as favonovel.com glared evilly at Old Hughes.
Old Hughes couldn’t help but stutter in response to the shadowy figure’s expression, “…You… W-what are you planning to do?”
“Oh, not much… The shadowy figure yelled, “I’m just using you as a test subject!” as favonovel.com stabbed Old Hughe in the head with a malicious smile on his face!
When his head caught fire, Old Hughes could only scream in pain as the flames spread throughout his body!
The shadowy figure was able to confirm the true power of the Sword of Might by watching as fiery-red lines began coursing through the old man’s dying body.
A single slash, as the old man had said, was enough to completely melt a person!
Hughes had not expected such a terrible fate to befall him, but there was little favonovel.com could do at this point…
Soon enough, all that was left of the old man was a flickering flame…
“As if I still needed you after getting the Titan Sword… Are you planning to take over Dragonblood City while I’m around? Let your imagination run wild!”
As favonovel.com glared at the dying flame, the shadowy figure scoffed.
Hughes was nothing more than a pawn in his hands. A pawn to assist favonovel.com in obtaining the sword…
The pawn was no longer useful to favonovel.com now that it had served its purpose…
