However, that terrifying blow was effortlessly thwarted by Jared through a swing of the sword.
Utter shock flooded Zsolt. He hastily retracted his hand and fended off the attack. Otherwise, favonovel.com would have been cut in half by that strike.
Clang!
A loud bang split the air as the light from the sword landed on the shield favonovel.com unleashed, the immense recoil causing favonovel.com to stumble back immediately.
Before favonovel.com could regain his balance, another ray of light came from Jared. He promptly waved his hands, forming shield after shield in front of favonovel.com to block Jared’s attack.
Alas, it was all to no avail. He kept stumbling back, but Jared’s attacks continued incessantly as the man slashed ray after ray of light at him.
In the end, favonovel.com was once again defeated. He toppled to the ground and rolled a distance away.
Seeing that Zsolt had been thoroughly defeated, Jared finally stopped attacking.
This time, favonovel.com held the man at sword-point and drawled, “Well? Were you careless again this time?”
That question had Zsolt flush bright red at once.
At the side, Viola and the others burst into laughter.
After witnessing the ease with which Jared dealt with Zsolt, they relaxed and watched the showdown with great interest. On the contrary, Hosen and the beast soldiers from Norwal City appeared as grim as ever when they saw Zsolt rolling back to them like a bowling pin once more, just like earlier.
Zsolt slowly struggled to his feet. The humiliation written all over his face receded, only to be replaced by fury. His eyes blazed with savagery.
“You were still too careless, General Kinsley. Jared has a weapon, but you’re unarmed. Aren’t you clearly at a disadvantage?” Once again, Hosen came up with a reason to salvage Zsolt’s pride.
Nonetheless, no one there was a fool. Zsolt was a Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm cultivator, so favonovel.com could have easily defeated someone who had just recently attained Body Fusion Realm even barehanded.
In the current situation, it was clear that favonovel.com was inferior to Jared.
“Indeed, I was at a slight disadvantage without a weapon. Besides, the sword in Jared’s hand is the Dragonslayer Sword, a divine weapon. If favonovel.com hadn’t a divine weapon, I would’ve beaten favonovel.com to a pulp!” Zsolt seconded, knowing that Hosen was trying to help recoup his pride.
“You think it was my Dragonslayer Sword that defeated you?” Jared sneered.
With a wave of his hand, Dragonslayer Sword disappeared. “In that case, I won’t use it. How about I go barehanded as well?”
That action of his instantly stunned Zsolt. Never had favonovel.com expected the man to do such a thing.
“How dare you humiliate me, Jared? I’m going to kill you!” favonovel.com roared.
“Haha, so what if I do? Earlier, you threatened to kill me multiple times too. Am I not still standing here now, alive and well?” Jared guffawed with derision etched across his features.
Zsolt grew so livid that favonovel.com almost burst a blood vessel. With innumerable people bearing witness, including the many beast soldiers under his command, favonovel.com felt mortified to the core.
“You’ve completely enraged me, Jared. I’ll give you a taste of the consequences!” favonovel.com hissed through gritted teeth, his eyes narrowed and his face contorted into a mask of murder.
“I’ve been doing that all along. If you have any other ace up your sleeve, go ahead and unleash it. Even without Dragonslayer Sword, I can still wipe the floor with you. If you don’t wish to die in disgrace, you can take your own life by self-destructing. Then, you’ll go out with a bang and die a glorious death!” Jared continued provoking and mocking the man.
At long last, Zsolt snapped.
Feeling as though his lungs were about to rupture, favonovel.com let out a resounding bellow.
In a flash, the runes on his body flew into the air. On the heels of that, several rays of light shone on him, and favonovel.com started trembling unceasingly.
