231 Groom selection ceremony (2/2)

”Did you kill Erick,” Cortez's usual calmness disappeared from his face and asked Ajax with a fit of anger.

'Roarr'

However, Ajax roared in reply and rushed at Cortez with his huge body to finish the mission as quickly as possible.

Cortez also didn't want to drag the fight as he lost interest in Ajax when he knew that Ajax killed his best friend.

He rushed towards Ajax's huge beast body with his giant halberd and aimed it at Ajax's neck.

It was not Cortez's first time fighting the transformed beast. He used to have regular spars with Erick and knew about the transformed beast body's weak points.

'Cleave'

'Puchi'

'What?' Ajax was shocked that he missed catching Cortez and was allowed him to land a hit on him by the halberd in his hands.

Ajax really underestimated Cortez's speed.

When they were about to attack each other, Cortez's speed increased to the point he was unable to catch up with his eyes, which led him to receive a severe attack from the halberd.

Blood started to come out of Ajax's wound that was cleaved by the halberd on his neck area.

Without wasting any time, Ajax took out the water from the mini-thunder pool and drank it. He also poured some water on his wound for quick healing.

As soon as he poured the water on the wound, just like magic, the wound started to heal at an incredible speed.

'What is that? It has great healing properties?' Cortez didn't feel shocked anymore with Ajax's secrets.

When he saw the water that was healing Ajax's wounds, Cortez stopped his attacks and observed the wound on Ajax and tried to find out what Ajax was using.

However, he was unable to find out more about the water, giving rich lightning elemental energy.

'He only lacks cultivation. If he has that, then I would have died by now,' Cortez felt fear when he thought about Ajax's future strength, and his thoughts on killing him became even more.

According to Cortez, except for cultivation, Ajax had everything in his space ring.

'I think, even if he can call a general realm cultivator for his help from my back I would not be surprised,' Cortez thought in his head.

Just as he was thinking about this, Cortez's ring glowed with a red light.

”Okay, playing time is over. Time to kill you has come”.

After seeing the light, Cortez's expression became serious, and hurriedly said to Ajax coldly.

”Huh?” Ajax was shocked to see the seriousness on Cortez's face all of a sudden.

'Even, when he knew that I killed Erick, he was not this serious but what happened to him all of sudden,' Ajax thought and wondered what made Cortez kill him quickly.
