261 Shocking the Entire Regalis Continent

Aethelwolf was expending a lot of world essence to fight equally against Eliazar. His weapon was also showing signs of breaking because of the fearsome power behind Eliazar’s strikes. Thinking about this, Aethelwolf narrowed his eyes into slits as he gathered his remaining world essence into his sword. He only spared a little bit of world essence so that he won’t fall into an unconscious state after their spar.

Eliazar also noticed the large amounts of world essence gathering in Aethelwolf’s sword. He hurriedly executed a fierce swipe that summoned a lightning dragon that rushed towards Aethelwolf in a threatening manner.

ROAR!

Aethelwolf pointed his sword forward and released a burst of frightening sword intent that clashed with the lightning dragon.

BOOOOMM!

An ear-splitting explosion echoed as soon as the two attacks collided!

“What?!” Eliazar was stunned when he saw that his lightning dragon was slowly disappearing. He also noticed that a residual force of Aethelwolf’s attack was aiming at him.

He hurriedly raised his halberd to block the residual force.

Bang!



.....

Eliazar was thrown twenty meters away before he managed to stabilize in midair.

Meanwhile, Aethelwolf’s face was already covered in sweat because of the huge consumption of world essence. He only had a small amount of energy left and he no longer had the power to put up any form of resistance. ‘This guy is too strong! I’ve already used my strongest move, but he could actually block it. So this is the strength of the Mystic Island’s Holy General...’ He thought helplessly in his heart. He finally had a rough understanding of the ultimate experts of the Regalis Continent.

Looking at Eliazar who was still in stable condition, Aethelwolf raised his hand as he muttered. “I surrender.” He then kept the Unique-Rated Sword that was already broken.

Eliazar was stunned when he heard this. Aethelwolf was obviously winning the battle and in that last exchange, his defense was almost penetrated. If not for the Divine-Rated weapon in his hands, he would have been seriously injured. ‘Did he surrender to preserve my dignity?’ He thought to himself.

Nocturna who was watching the battle intently was also surprised by the sudden turn of events. Aethelwolf was overwhelming the battle, but he actually surrendered.





Eliazar kept his halberd. He then cupped his hands towards Aethelwolf and muttered bitterly. “Sir Aethelwolf, your power is outstanding even without a Divine-Rated weapon! I’m ashamed to claim this victory...”

Hearing this, Aethelwolf smiled and shook his head. “That last attack used up most of my world essence. If we continued the battle, I would only humiliate myself. Besides, this is only a spar. There is no need to dwell on it deeply.”

Eliazar admired his temperament and grace. In his eyes, Aethelwolf didn’t look like he had expended a lot of world essence. He still looked calm and composed. His energy was stable and showed no signs of irregularities. He believed that Aethelwolf merely said those words to console him. “You’ve earned my respect, Sir Aethelwolf! I’ll vouch for you to be ranked in the top five of the Heavenly Might Rankings!” He then turned his head to Nocturna and said. “Young Miss, you’ve also witnessed Sir Aethelwolf’s power. I believe that it is only right for him to be ranked fifth in the Heavenly Might Rankings.”

Nocturna was shocked when she heard this, but when she recalled Aethelwolf’s stunning display, she couldn’t refute his words. “I’ll discuss this with my father.” She answered hesitantly.

The top five experts in the Heavenly Might Rankings were the absolute monsters in the Regalis Continent. Their power was equivalent to an entire army and even the empires in the Holy Rankings are afraid of them. The top five in the Heavenly Might Rankings have been stable for a few decades now and Nocturna didn’t have the authority to rank them. She still had to discuss with her father if there are any changes to be made in the top five of the rankings.

Eliazar nodded in understanding upon hearing her reply. He knew that the young miss didn’t have the authority for this so he didn’t make things difficult for her. “Sir Aethelwolf, I admire your strength and I want to be friends with you. You don’t have to address me respectfully. Just call me by my name.” He smiled at Aethelwolf.

Aethelwolf wanted to explain himself when he noticed that they had misunderstood his act of surrendering. ‘Hey, buddy! I’ve really used up my power!’ He wanted to say these words, but it was stuck in his throat.

In the end, he could only nod his head at Eliazar. Besides, it wasn’t bad to befriend such a strong expert. “In that case, please call me by my name as well, Eliazar.” He replied with a light smile.

“Hahah! Good! I like your directness, Aethelwolf!” Eliazar laughed heartily as he patted Aethelwolf’s shoulder.

‘Man, this guy’s hands are so heavy!’ Aethelwolf forced out a smile as he shook off Eliazar. “You guys came a long way to find me. You should stay for a while and rest here. There are still a lot of vacant rooms in my estate.”

Before Nocturna could reply, Eliazar nodded his head and said. “Sure! I also want to know more about the Leone Empire!”

Nocturna stared helplessly at the dignified Holy General who had suddenly become a talkative person. “Alright.” She sighed.

And just like that, Aethelwolf managed to befriend one of Mystic Island’s Holy Generals, Eliazar, the expert who was ranked seventh in the Heavenly Might Rankings.

Aethelwolf hosted a banquet for his guests and he even invited a few important figures of the Leone Empire to celebrate with them.

Eliazar and Nocturna stayed in the estate for a couple of days before they left.

Soon, the updated list of the Heavenly Might Rankings was announced and a new name was added to the rankings.

5th – Aethelwolf Lassiter (Origin: Leone Empire)

When everyone saw this name, they were shocked. After all, there hasn’t been a change in the top five of the rankings for a few decades!
