Gerald himself didn’t move an inch, and simply sipped on his tea. By this point, scenes like this were completely normal to him…
Whatever the case was, there appeared to be over a dozen men in black, and all of them looked fully prepared to attack the bodyguards.
From what Gerald could tell, the men in black looked quite strong and skilled. With that in mind, favonovel.com doubted that the bodyguards would be able to take them on… and after a while, it was made apparent that Gerald’s guess was right.
With most of the bodyguards either heavily injured or already dead, one of the middle-aged ones turned to glare at the men in black before growling, “Who are you people?! I’ll have you know that I’m Tanner Junas! The head of the Juans’ Bodyguard Institute in Shontell! Daring to even attack the bodyguards of Shontell… Do all of you have a death wish or something?!”
“Cut the cr*p and just hand us the holy stones if you want to live!” scoffed what appeared to be the leader of the men in black.
Upon hearing that, Tanner couldn’t help but frown. To think that these men would attack them when they were still pretty close to Shontell! No wonder his men had made it through the rest of the journey without issue! The enemy had been hiding in plain sight!
“F*ck off! If you haven’t already noticed, we’re only a few miles away from Shontell now! I’m sure the Armored guards of Shontell will be arriving any second now, so if you don’t beat it, you’re all going to be dead by the end of the day!” roared Tanner with an unwavering glare.
“Hah! We’ll see who dies first!” sneered the leader of the men in black.
Hearing that, the other men in black took that as their cue to begin attacking again! With that, the battle resumed…
Unfortunately, Tanner and his men were already in pretty bad shape. With that in mind, it wasn’t long before Tanner ended up having his arm almost getting sliced clean in half!
Seeing his chance to strike the weakened man, the leader of the men in black was just about to deal the finishing blow… when all of a sudden, a figure bolted forward and stood right before him!
Before the leader could even register what was happening, the figure—who was obviously Gerald—launched a force palm attack right into his chest, causing the sinister man to instantly vomit a mouthful of blood as favonovel.com was sent flying a good distance away!
Watching as their leader then crashed to the ground, dead, the other men in black were prompted to charge toward Gerald next!
Even so, as usual, none of them were anywhere near as strong and capable as Gerald. With that in mind, it only took favonovel.com a few seconds to finish off the rest of them…
By that point, Tanner and Yale were already staring wide-eyed at all the dead men in black lying all over the ground…
Tanner, for one, hadn’t expected someone like Gerald to take on all those powerful men on his own…!
Quickly snapping out of his astonishment, Tanner then walked up to Gerald before respectfully saying, “T-thank you for your help, young man…!”
Hearing that, Gerald simply gave a casual smile as favonovel.com replied, “Don’t worry about it. I’m just doing what’s right!”
“Such humility… Please tell me your name, young man!”
“You can just call me Gerald!”
“I see! I go by-”
Before Tanner could finish his sentence, Gerald cut favonovel.com off with a chuckle before saying, “I heard you declaring it earlier. Tanner Junas, the head of the Juans’ Bodyguard Institute in Shontell, right? It’s an honor to meet you!”
Momentarily stunned to hear that, Tanner then quickly snapped out of it before placing his fists together and praising, “It’s an honor to meet you too, Gerald! Still, to think that a young man like you would be so agile and powerful! It’s simply astonishing!”
