Chapter 45 A Reunion should always be this Fun (2/2)
”Uncle!”
”Master!”
”Ok, ok, I am just joking in here.” Clint said as he raised his arms in surrender. His words might sound apologetic, but his expression certainly did not.
”If you are done joking in here, then maybe we should start on preparing for the afro guy.” Ricardo said as he looked behind them. ”With my advanced hearing, I could hear a noisy vehicle approaching us. Judging from the frequency of the sound waves. I can say that a very fast airship is following us.”
”So he really did come huh.” Clint said as he licked his lips. ”Now its time for me to teach him a lesson.”
Out of all the people that he met, Clint greatly hated two people.
One was Lord Ergo, since he was the one who tormented Elizabeth, who Clint considered as his best friend and a rival.
The second one was the afro guy, since he was indirectly related towards the death of his first disciple.
”Uncle…” Alina went pale as she saw the burning look in Clint's eyes. ”Don't tell me that your real reason to be here is because of revenge?”
”Revenge? Yes, that is one of my reasons.” Clint said as their surroundings began to shift and seethe. ”I did not seek to get that afro guy's head before as he could possibly help your sister. But after the appearance of Alex, I realized that there is no way I can let him live.”
”But how about the restriction?” Alex interjected as Clint saw a worried look in his disciple's eyes. ”Won't you violate it if you attacked the afro guy?”
”My restriction only prevents me from transcending and from dealing with minor matters.” Clint said as he glared at the approaching airship behind them. ”As for our current situation right now, there is no way that this is just a minor matter. This a matter concerning the whole world, so I don't think I will be restricted from joining in.”
”Well said, Clint” Ricardo said as he shifted his appearance back to his wife. ”Be sure to kick his ass!”
”That I will do.” Clint declared as he accelerated towards the following airship. With his speed, it only took Clint some seconds to approach the airship.
”Oi, you can come out and face me now.” Clint taunted as he blocked the airship's path. ”It's time for us to settle our scores!”
”...”
”...”
It did not take that long before a voice could be heard coming from the airship.
”So you really did come huh. You must have been itching for this moment for a very long time…”
Clint bit his lips as he tried not to curse the afro guy inside the ship. He found this hard to do, as all he could do was to imagine the afro guy's head blasted to pieces with his power.
”You are the same as always, Aleksei.” Clint said as he uttered the real name of the afro guy. ”Always hiding in that ship of yours eh? No wonder your cousin left you to marry me. You are just that boring.”
”That was a low blow, but I can accept it.” Aleksei replied as the door of the airship opened.
Aleksei came out of it, with his afro hair swaying merrily across the air. His mouth was set into a thin line as he glared at Clint.
”You want a fight? Then I shall give you a fight!” Aleksei declared as his arms dangled at his sides freely. ”I could not wait to make you feel the pain that I felt when my only remaining family left me for your broke ass tattooed skin!”
”Oh? It seems like you forgot what you did to my disciple.” Clint said as his knuckles started to crack. ”Maybe a few hits to your bludgeoned face later will make you remember.”
”Well, that depends if you can hit me.” Aleksei then looked at the airship beside him as he said,
”Lord Gallius, leave me here. There is no way that we can follow Lord Ergo, not with the Mad Jackal blocking us. So, you will be the one to follow them. As for me, I will follow you later. I still have some beef to deal with right now.”
”Yes, Mr. President!” Lord Gallius' voice could be heard from inside the ship, which started to speed up.
”Oh, no you don't!” Clint shouted as he pointed his finger towards the leaving airship.
”Boom!”
Clint warped the gravitational well at the tip of his fingers, producing a horrifying suction force which proceeded to pull the airship towards Clint.
”Oh, I cannot allow that to happen…” A flash of light swept by Clint, and before he could know it, his gravity well broke apart.
The airship, that was supposed to be destroyed by Clint's attack, found a moment of freedom which Lord Gallius did not waste.
”Schum!”
The airship burst into speed, hastily leaving Clint and a smirking Aleksei.
Clint could only watch with narrowed eyes as the airship continued on following Lord Ergo's entourage.
”So, you were really hiding your abilities huh.” Clint said as he cricked his neck. ”This should be fun then.”
”Oh, you think if will be fun?” Aleksei smirked as he stretched his limbs. ”Yes, it will be fun. Not for you, but certainly for me.”
”Bring it then.” Clint said as an axe appeared in his hands. ”I will have all the fun smashing your headless body later…”
”We shall see about that.” Aleksei shot back as a set of needles appeared in his hands. The needles were short, but Clint could see that they have unworldly levels of sharpness.
”Have you experienced acupuncture before? If not, then prepare to experience one! Of course my acupuncture will not make you feel heaven, it will send you straight there!”
