What would be the most exciting part of a video game?
The boss fight!
What would be the most anxious time when playing the video game?
Killing the boss!
Maxwell could immediately kill Sebastian but a mysterious person suddenly pops out? Then throw out a damn imitation Silver Ariel Sword Attack to steal my boss?
How can I allow this thing to happen?
The flames of rage were about to burst out from Maxwell's head.
Even though Sebastian, at the peak of his level 2 silver rank, was hard to deal with, and Maxwell, combined with Heavyarm, may still not necessarily be his opponent, Maxwell still had to kill him no matter what. There's no way he was going to let Sebastian live beyond today.
He was carrying the determination to kill!
Moreover…
The sudden appearance of the mystery person was most likely to save Gwendolyn, but...
Wasn't he the one who was supposed to do the hero, saving the damsel in distress?
It was like this in movies and in novels. Would he allow this to change when it came to him?
Out of the eighty-one surefire ways to win a girl, a hero saving a damsel in distress was a move that's one of the strongest, most awesome, and most likely to capture a girl's heart. Maxwell was lost in his imagination of what comes after saving Gwendolyn: They would both stare affectionately into each other's eyes, and he would use a ten-thousand-love-love volts stare and directly shock Gwendolyn until she loses herself over him. Finally, they would return back home and do the usual love exercises between a man and a woman.
Unfortunately, a big shot suddenly cuts in halfway and completely shatters his daydream.
At speeds enhanced by four times his attributes, like a shadow fluttering through the wind, the Ghost Steps. Combined with his cultivation at level 6 bronze rank, this speed should be fast enough right?
Fast, to the point of shocking those around him. Even if it were Sebastian, most likely he wouldn't be able to reach such speeds.
The surrounding people could only feel a gust of wind blow by them followed by a blur. They had no way of clearly seeing how Maxwell had already rushed forward.
The wind could travel fast but when compared to lightning?
Maxwell managed to step a foot into the threshold of the main hall but the black shadow had already stabbed out with its sword. Maxwell's mind sank as he suddenly felt an impulse of wanting to die. "I already told you to let me do it!"
"It's my boss goddammit... It's over, it's really over now."
There was so much resentment in his heart.
Just based on speed alone, the shadow was so powerful that its attack should be self-explanatory.
A very simple-looking sword strike stabbed out. The blade of the sword was reflected in Sebastian's pupils as his pair of eyes slowly opened wider. So simple yet he had no time to react at all.
"Slice!"
A reflective glow of the sword pierced through the air.
And an arm flew up.
This sword strike made the entire Gillette Household pale in fear. It looked simple, but in fact, it contained the endless power of the nihility of space. This void-like power was something that went beyond the Gold Rank!
Terrifying beyond words!
Maxwell's heart was shocked to the point of being flabbergasted. He thought the dark shadow was a strong expert, but he never imagined this person's strength to be so outrageous. This was at least several stories higher than the initial. This was a rank that he couldn't even comprehend at this point!
The sword strike ended and the dark shadow blurred by.
Gwendolyn disappeared from her spot, and within the blink of an eye, she was already dozens of meters away.
This set of techniques flowed like water, creating a gorgeous scene that was difficult to describe.
"What a damn good sword technique." Maxwell's heart was quite unhappy at the moment.
Strength!
This was the difference between low and high strength.
Maxwell's mood was a bit bad, but he still appreciated the move by this mysterious person. His lips started forming a cheerful grin.
Sebastian didn't die.
He merely lost an arm. This scene to Maxwell was simply someone delivering a boss to his doorstep, all gift-wrapped.
The mysterious person had left the main hall so there was no one left to contend with him against the boss. Maxwell's face had a conceited smile that was as lewd and cheap as one could get.
One step at a time, he walked up with a playful grin: "Lord Sebastian, how are you doing?"
With an arm cut off, blood was spraying out like crazy all over the place. Sebastian's face paled and his body lightly trembled. He then ferociously stared at Maxwell and shouted: "You colluded with outsiders to murder the Lord. The entire Gillette Household will not let you get away with this!"
"Shit, let's say I colluded with outsiders, I'm still going to kill you so-called acting Lord of the Gillette Household."
"If you have the ability, come bite me!"
"The entire Gillette Household will not let me go? You have them stand out right now and make a move against me. Let's see who's not going to let who go." Maxwell replied with a conceited and show-off looking expression.
That's how his personality was.
When it was time to be arrogant, he would act arrogantly. When it was time to be rampant, he would act rampantly. When it was time to show off, he would show off to the max. When he's not showing off, that's the time when he's actually pretending to be normal.
Upon seeing Sebastian's ugly look on his face, Maxwell couldn't hold back and started laughing out loud. He then pointed at Sebastian's nose and mocked: "It's your turn to have such a day like today!"
"You never imagined this day would come when you schemed against me huh?"
"Crippling me and wasting my cultivation. You made me lose face in front of the House and the entire city. And right now, you never imagined you would have such a day right?"
"Indulging your son and having your group of people humiliate, bully, and beat me; you didn't expect yourself to have such a day right?"
"Ruining my reputation and reducing me to a horse stable assistant, did you imagine you would have such a day as today?"
"Always making my life difficult, detaining my brother, and moving against my lady. Did you imagine you would have such a day as today?" Maxwell's voice started from low to high and finally roared out the last sentence at Sebastian. The hostile aura Maxwell was giving off right now was especially strong.
Sebastian's eyes were filled with killing intent as the muscles on his face involuntarily twitched. With a low and grim tone, "I should've killed you back then."
As his voice faded, Sebastian growled like a person on his last leg, "Today I can still kill you!"
"Another sneak attack? You think I'm dumb or something?"
Maxwell's eyebrows twitched as he roared out: "Level 2 Overdrive!"
Without waiting for Sebastian's attack to arrive, Maxwell already threw out a punch.
"Bam!"
A punch blasted out, filled with flames, and directly landed on Sebastian's chest.
His chest was split apart as blood seeped through his ruptured flesh. Sebastian's eyes widened with hatred. Without waiting for any further reaction, Maxwell threw out another punch: "Dragon Fire Palm Attack!"
"Bam!"
The chest was penetrated through, and blood splashed out the other end. Sebastian had died on the spot.
A level 2 silver rank was that useless?
Not exactly. If Sebastian's arm hadn't been cut off and he hadn't been subjected to the mysterious person's oppressive energy suppressing him, killing Sebastian would be an extremely difficult task. The gap in strength between them was nonetheless a huge difference.
A person's level was like their shackle, and surmounting it was like trying to leap over a gorge.
Maxwell understood all these factors, but had no time to bother with them for now. He stood in place with his eyes lightly closed and an overjoyed expression while waiting for the system's notification in his mind.
"Crackle!"
"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for killing Sebastian."
"Reward: 8000 XP and 800 Mana."
"Extra Reward: Martial Technique: Limitless Palm Strike!"
"Learn: Yes/No?"
"Loot: Dragon suppression pill..."
A series of system notification tones sounded off.
This was awesome, but Maxwell felt it wasn't enough.
Sebastian was the last boss that was all golden and shiny; this was it with the loot explosion?
Truthfully, Maxwell was not very satisfied with the loot. He then cursed himself in frustration: "What a poor bastard!"
The notification tones paused for a bit, before finally making another notification.
"Crackle!"
"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for killing the boss in the Beginner's level."
"Reward: Vampire Blade!"
Maxwell was ecstatic as he observed the super domineering-looking Vampire Blade in his mind. He then started grinning in a foolish manner.
