Chapter 120: A silhouette to a familiar yet an unfamiliar man (1/2)

Author: M_W Cancer

After the case was finally settled, the people inside the Royal Court finally began leaving the place.

Leo took a step forward as he also wanted to take his leave, but he was suddenly stopped by Vincent Snow and the others of the 5 major Noble Household.

”Come with us, we need to discuss something with you...”

Leo felt helpless as he doesn't have any choice aside from coming with them. Although, he wanted to leave as soon as possible so that he can finally use the 12 large Mana stones that he had brought with him, since they had been laying under his bed for a long time now. But, with the call from this people of five major Noble Household, even if he has the guts to lie to them, he still doesn't have the courage to decline them.

Moreover, these people were much higher to Leo in the hierarchy of the Silver Kingdom.

Vincent Snow, Walter Skull, and Vins Blacksmoke were all Marquess. And Louise Honoris, Paul and Arvin Williams, and lastly, Jacob and Timothy Will, were all Earls.

Hence, Leo with his mere status of a Viscount could only accept their call, or more like a command, helplessly.

.....

At this moment, Leo's Master, with the real name of Olivia, also decided to leave the Royal Court as she saw all the people started leaving the place.

Olivia doesn't want to approach Leo, nor does she want to show how proud she was to him. With her being present in the Royal Court, that alone was already enough to express all of those.

However, the moment Olivia stood up from her seat, a silhouette of a man she felt was familiar yet not familiar with was quickly seen by her walking in front. She wasn't really the type of person that will just approach a person despite being familiar with the latter. But the unknown man was different. Something in her heart told her to go and approach him. That he was someone she should chase after.

Although she doesn't want to follow after the unknown man, Olivia can't help it as she began following him from behind. Whether she wanted it or not, her body was moving on her own to chase after him.

Arriving outside the Royal Court, the unknown man suddenly went right towards a small alley.

It was really suspicious and also obvious that the unknown man had already noticed Olivia following behind him. But, despite that, she still keeps on following after him.

Turning around towards the alley too, Olivia immediately saw the unknown man just standing still while his back was facing in front of her.

”Why are you following me?” The unknown man asked with a really solemn voice.

”Who are you?” Olivia replied.

”You followed me here, yet you don't know who I am?” The unknown man said before letting out a soft chuckle.

”No... I mean, yes... But...” Despite being a really powerful person, Olivia seems to not know how to express what she wanted to say to the unknown man. It was like back at that time when she first met the first man she fell in love with.

”Woman, did you perhaps fell in love with me at first sight?” The unknown man boldly asked.

Hearing what the unknown man said, Olivia immediately snap as she said, ”What!! Who do you think you are to make me fall in love at first sight?! To tell you honestly, I will only give my heart to that one single man I meet before...! Ayst! Why am I even telling you this, just tell me who you are or else I will kill you!!”

Olivia put her right arm up in front of her as suddenly a fire burning really fiercely coiled around her arm. The flames were blue in color. It turned her surrounding really hot the moment it was formed. But, despite this really hot temperature, her arm was totally fine. It was even like the blue fire was just nothing for her but a mere decoration.

”Oh, a Tsundere? However, do you have the capability to kill me, though?” The unknown man said as he suddenly threw up his black hat in front of Olivia, quickly being followed by him charging straight to her while the color of darkness suddenly coiled around his right hand, just like Olivia's.

”So, you choose the second option? Then prepare to receive my flames!” Olivia said as she didn't back down and replied fiercely on her own towards the unknown man.

*Booommmm!

A really loud explosion sounded soon after Olivia's fist and the unknown man's fist meet each other right in the middle. The two buildings on both sides of the alley had half of its entirety blown to pieces and those pieces being thrown around the surrounding.

The people nearby around the place immediately started running away. They were obviously afraid that they would be dragged into a really dangerous mess.

Fortunately, the moment the two of them clashed with each other, there were only a very few other people nearby around. Hence, only a few were hurt, and no one was killed with the aftermath of their attack.

The two figures immediately separated quite a distance from each other after the first clashed. They quickly understood each other's strength with that single clash alone.

That first clash might seem like an ordinary attack, but it was actually their own way of testing each other's strength.

”Darkness, grant me your power!” The unknown man said as soon as he landed on the ground. Dark Element Mana suddenly appeared on his feet, before it seemingly consumed his entire body soon after.
