“This is interesting.” Dustin smirked as the dense barrage of swords came slashing down at him. In the blink of an eye, his figure dissolved into a wisp of smoke and vanished.

A storm of sword shadows carrying the force that could split rivers and overturn seas crashed down on the fishing boat where he had just been standing. The entire vessel broke apart in an instant some sinking into the depths while others drifted across the water.

“What? He dodged it?” Warrick’s eyes flickered with surprise.

Mulder’s attack just now had been a 360-degree attack. Once caught in its range, there was no chance to dodge-only the option to endure. He couldn’t understand how Dustin had managed to avoid it.

Did he just teleport?

“Hiding like a coward? What kind of warrior are you? Come fight me face-to-face.”

Frustrated after his attack missed again, Mulder grew desperate. His enhanced serum would only last for 15 minutes. If this dragged on, he’d collapse from exhaustion before Dustin even touched him.

Mulder needed to end the fight quickly.

But Dustin’s movements were too unpredictable. No matter how Mulder attacked, he couldn’t land a hit. Once the serum wore off, the consequences would be severe.

“You’re looking for a fight, huh? Fine. I’ll give you a chance to learn what it means to overestimate yourself.” Dustin reappeared before Mulder. He raised a finger, signaling for him to come at him.

“Such courage. Let’s see if you can take this.” Mulder took a deep breath and quickly gathered his strength.

He knew this was his only chance. If this strike didn’t end the fight and Dustin somehow escaped, capturing him again would be difficult. So, Mulder had to put everything into this final move.

As he focused his energy, his form grew larger. Dark auras swirled around him, accompanied by the rumble of thunder and the howling of the wind.

“Raging Tempest!” Mulder roared.

He leaped into the air and spun rapidly like a top. The sword in his hand moved with his rotation, cutting through the air at lightning speed. A visible vortex of wind coiled around the sword and swirled as he spun.

He suddenly stopped midair and unleashed his sword with a devastating downward slash. At that instant, the ground rumbled, the sea trembled, and the fishing boats rocked violently.

The sword aura over thirty feet long descended with crushing force, aiming straight for Dustin. Before it even fully landed, the air was filled with flying sand and shifting rocks, and the sea parted as the force pushed it aside.

Dustin watched the fierce sword aura coming at him without flinching. He remained motionless until the very last moment, when he raised his hand.

“Go to hell!” Seeing this, Mulder sneered.

His internal grandmaster-level energy surged to its peak, pouring everything into the strike. The sword aura intensified, growing even more ferocious.

The devastating slash struck Dustin head-оп.

A violent shockwave erupted, blasting outward from the point of impact. Dust and debris filled the air, boats tipped over, and the sea itself churned, waves rising like towering walls.

As the dust settled, Warrick’s expression changed dramatically. He was stunned to, see that Mulder’s full-strength killing blow had been caught by Dustin with his fingers. The deadly sword aura that should have cleaved him apart hadn’t even ruffled his hair.

“This… This is impossible!” Warrick’s eyes widened in disbelief.

The force of that strike was so powerful that even he wouldn’t dare face it head-on, but Dustin had stopped it with just two fingers. 1

What kind of monster was Dustin?

At that moment, it wasn’t just Warrick who was surprised. Mulder, who had delivered the strike, was also shaken. 1

He had thrown everything into that strike and was convinced that even if it didn’t kill Dustin outright, it would at least leave him severely wounded.

But the outcome was beyond belief. His strongest attack, enhanced by the serum, was caught so effortlessly by Dustin, without even grazing him.

It was completely unfathomable.

Dustin flicked his finger and sent a powerful shockwave that knocked Mulder back several yards. He landed hard on his butt, and the sword in his hand snapped in two.

Mulder sat there, drenched in sweat, and his face was deathly pale. He parted his lips to speak, but no words came out. He knew he had been thoroughly defeated.

Dustin’s strength surpassed anything he had ever imagined. They weren’t even in the same league.

It didn’t matter how many enhanced serums Mulder took or how many techniques he unleashed-nothing he did could so much as scratch Dustin.

Mulder’s earlier bravado now felt like a joke. At that moment, he finally understood why the castle had only sent Dustin to deal with them. With his strength, taking them down was a simple task.
