“Aren’t you a little too weak for an Emperor Stage Cultivator?”

Roone who walked towards Alcimus with a leisurely look on his face spoke with a disdainful expression.

“You… you bastard…”

Alcimus cursed.

“Heehh? Did you say anything?”

Roone questioned with a scary smile on his face, at the same time, he punched Alcimus’s guts, forcing him to kneel on the ground.

“Khookkhh!!”

Alcimus coughed out blood again.

“I didn’t hear you the first time, mind repeating it again?”

Roone walked closer to Alcimus, crouched to bring his face closer to him, and questioned.

“…”

Alcimus glared at Roone, his eyes were red in rage, however, in the end, he didn’t say anything. Whatever the reason was, the current Roone is stronger than him.

Actually, Alcimus believed that he was even stronger than Astaria.

The Sword and Armor like these shouldn’t exist.

“That combat gear is not normal… where did you get it?”

Astaria, who was looking at the fight couldn’t help but question.

“And why should I answer you?”

Herms smiled as he questioned back.

Astaria turned around and a beautiful smile appeared on her face.

“Are you really that scared of me?”

“Heh.”

Herms laughed.

For an Emperor with a huge ego, these words were… annoying.

“Alcimus sent a search party to look for the Mythical Beasts, but they didn’t find anything.”

“Huh?”

Astaria’s expression changed.

“Yes, they didn’t find the body either.”

Astaria realized.

That combat gear was made from the Mythical Creature’s body.

From the body of the Beast that is capable of killing Emperors in 1 way.

Things were now clear.

That’s where Herms’s confidence came from.

That combat gear…

It was stronger than the Armor and Sword provided by Nux.

According to Nux, what they currently use is a 7 Star Weapon… however, even if their weapons were good, the difference between their weapons and the normal weapons was not that big…

According to that logic, that combat gear should be… a 10-Star Gear?

Does something like that even exist?

And how did the Solid Earth Kingdom create these weapons in the first place?

One had to know, there were 7 Star Beasts in this world, of course, killing them required all the Emperors to act together, and with the Mythical Creature around, only 1 of them was killed, and even after using that beast’s body, they were unable to create a 7 Star Weapon because they didn’t have the required equipment and the techniques.

“Hmm? You are unusually silent,

Astaria Skyfall, you aren’t scared, are you?”

Herms questioned.

He was definitely enjoying the serious look that has appeared on the ever-confident Astaria’s face.

He finally had this bitch under his palms.

However, suddenly,

A smile appeared on Astaria’s face.

“That bastard is blessed by lady luck.”

Suddenly, Astaria commented.

“Huh? What are you talking about?”

Herms questioned.

Did she perhaps lose her mind due to pressure or something?

“You see, your son made a little mistake.

He said a few words he shouldn’t have said, and now he is angry.”

Astaria smiled.

“What are you talking about?”

Herms narrowed his eyes.

“I was wondering why he didn’t react much, I guess those girls must have stopped him.

Now, however, he has a reason to act himself.”

Astaria explained. Herms was still confused.

“Let me introduce you to my student,

And possibly my future husband.”

Herms’s expression changed when he heard those words.

‘H-H-Husband!?’

These words jolted him from inside, however, before he could react to them,

Astaria suddenly pointed at the battlefield and smiled,

“There he is.”

Herms quickly turned towards the battlefield and his eyes widened in horror.

A man with black hair and golden eyes, who wore purple-black skin tight clothes stood tall, Roone, the one who was dominating the battle was now lying on the ground.

The man then walked forward and stepped on Roone’s head,

“You see, we have 1 thing in common,”

Nux spoke and then, a crazy smile appeared on his face,

“I have seen people kneeling in front of me as well.”

“You bastard!”

Roone shouted in anger, at the same time, he lifted his head. Nux was forced to step back.

Roone quickly stood up and glared at Nux,

“You little insect, you will pay for what you have done.”

“What a coincidence.” Nux smiled politely,

Then, a scary smile appeared on his face and he replied,

“I wanted to say the same thing as well.”

Two Purple Black Swords appeared in his hands,

“You are brave for a mere Ki-“

Roone wanted to say something, however, Nux wasn’t having any of it.

He appeared in front of Roone and attacked,

*Clank*

Roone barely defended.

And quickly his expression changed.

Nux, however, wasn’t done yet.

*Clank* *Clank* *Clank*

His chain of attacks started and just like Astaria, Roone was forced to step back while taking on those attacks as well.

Nux didn’t even give him time to adjust properly.

“Aren’t you a little too slow for an Emperor? Ah, maybe the Armor you are wearing is too heavy for you to move properly huh?

You really are a scardy cat huh?

An Emperor wearing an armor this heavy…

What did you think? It would save you from getting beaten?

It might protect you from the attacks that aim at your heart but,

What are you going to do about that gap that leaves your neck unprotected?”

Nux threatened.

“Don’t worry though, I won’t aim for your neck.

Your death won’t be this simple, Roone Lizander.”

Nux laughed as he continued to attack.

*Clank* *Clank* *Clank*

Yes, he was teasing an Emperor in the middle of the battle…

It was as if…

He was playing around… with an Emperor…

A King Stage Cultivator was doing something like that…

Alcimus and Herms…

The Emperors who were witnessing this scene couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

“Herms, let me introduce you the trump card I was hiding,

The strongest King Stage Cultivator to ever exist,

The King Stage Cultivator who drew against me, the so-called strongest human in the world.”

Astaria revealed with a proud look on her face.
