260 Firm Heart

“Sir Aethelwolf is truly direct.” Nocturna chuckled lightly before she continued. “It’s like this... Our Mystic Island is responsible for creating the Holy Ranking and the Heavenly Might Ranking. The first one is the ranking of the best empires in the Regalis Continent and the second one is the ranking of the experts in the continent... We received news that Sir Aethelwolf is a Level 5 Esper so we came here to inspect your power and see if you are qualified to enter the top 100 of the Heavenly Might Ranking.”

After her explanation, Aethelwolf became silent as he pondered upon her words. With the current power of the Leone Empire, it was impossible for it to enter the Holy Rankings. As for the Heavenly Might Rankings, Aethelwolf was a bit curious about the experts in the Regalis Continent. “Can you tell me more about the Heavenly Might Rankings? If there are benefits, I don’t mind exposing a bit of my power.” He muttered jokingly.

Nocturna smiled at him. She then turned her gaze to Eliazar and said. “Sir Eliazar, please give me the book of the Heavenly Might Rankings and the book of the Holy Rankings.”

Hearing this, Eliazar was a bit surprised, but he still took out the two books from his storage ring. He then handed them to Nocturna.

“Sir Aethelwolf, these books contain detailed information about the experts and empires in the two rankings. Normally, only the top 10 experts of the Heavenly Might Rankings have the privilege to get them, but I’ll give you the same treatment. Is this enough, Sir Aethelwolf?” Nocturna waved the two books in front of him.

The books were quite thick, especially the Heavenly Might Rankings. The information inside must be detailed enough for it to be so thick. “Alright. You’ve made me interested, Miss Nocturna. How do you want to test my power?”





There was a light smile behind Nocturna’s veil when she heard his words. She tossed the two books towards him as she said. “Sir Eliazar is a late stage Level 5 Esper. You just have to exchange some blows with him and we’ll determine your power based on your performance.”

Aethelwolf couldn’t but look at Eliazar when he heard this. The latter also stared at him with a calm gaze. ‘This guy is a Holy General of the Mystic Island so he should be one of the strongest experts in the Regalis Continent. He would be a nice training partner.’ He thought to himself.



“Sure, but we should spar in the sky. I don’t want my estate to be destroyed. I hope you don’t mind.” Aethelwolf said while looking at Eliazar.

.....

“Fine by me.” Eliazar replied calmly.

“Gentlemen, please follow me.” Nocturna stood up and flew out of the estate. Aethelwolf and Eliazar followed behind her.

Nocturna kept on staring at Aethelwolf. This man didn’t even hesitate when she said that he had to fight Eliazar. After all, Eliazar was ranked seventh in the Heavenly Might Rankings.

“Are you both ready?” Nocturna gently asked the two.

Aethelwolf and Eliazar nodded their heads.

“Remember. This is only a spar so if one side admits defeat, the spar will automatically end. If there are no more questions, you guys can now begin!” Nocturna muttered before she distanced herself from them.

Aethelwolf and Eliazar glanced at each other. Neither of them showed signs of movement. The battle between experts is decided in just a few moves so a slight mistake would prove to be fatal for them.

Eliazar was the first one to move. He grabbed a halberd from out of nowhere and brandished it threateningly. Dense electric arcs covered the body of the halberd, looking like small serpents made of lightning.

When Aethelwolf saw this weapon, he could immediately tell that it was a Divine-Rated weapon with a mature soul. Its power was even greater than the Two Lion Sword in the Leone Imperial Family’s hands!

Aethelwolf didn’t have a Divine-Rated weapon of his own. Although he was already a Level 5 Blacksmith, he lacked the necessary materials to create one. He was also quite busy lately so he didn’t have the time to gather the materials.

Aethelwolf grabbed his own weapon. It was only a Unique-Rated sword, but he wasn’t the least bit worried. With his array of skills, he was confident that he could fight against Eliazar without being defeated.

“Sir Aethelwolf, do you not possess a Divine-Rated weapon?” Eliazar asked with a frowning look. The battle would be to his advantage because of the disparity in their weapons.

“It’s just a material weapon. The strongest weapon that a warrior must have is a firm heart.” Aethelwolf said in a dignified tone. It was one of the words quoted by a famous warlord in his old world.

Eliazar felt a wave of shame when he heard Aethelwolf’s words. ‘He’s right! The strongest weapon that a warrior must have is a firm heart!’ It was the first time he felt enlightened by a few words. His respect for Aethelwolf increased after this short interaction. He no longer looked down on him for not having a Divine-Rated weapon.

Soon, the two men exchanged blows.

Whenever their weapons collided, there would be violent explosions in the air!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Nocturna thought that the battle would end quickly because of the disparity in their weapons, but she was stunned when she noticed that Aethelwolf could still fight evenly against Eliazar. “He can actually fight evenly against Holy General Eliazar despite not having a Divine-Rated weapon... He also possesses some unique skills that are difficult to predict. Even his sword technique is refined and full of elegance... There’s actually an expert like this hiding in this small empire!”

At this moment, she already determined that Aethelwolf’s power was already in the top 10 of the Heavenly Might Rankings!

The Regalis Continent would soon be shocked by the sudden emergence of this person in the Heavenly Might Rankings. Just the thought of it made her extremely excited.
