The moment the light hit the platform, the sound of an explosion occurred as huge cracks began to form on the surface of the platform!
As everyone stared wide-eyed at the platform that was almost split in two, a different sound from the sheathed sword could be heard …
Following which, a middle-aged man dressed in ninja-like clothes stepped out from the cloud of rubble.
Watching the middle-aged man looking at him, Carlos found himself laughing before saying, "So that's you, Ghose!"
From that statement, it was evident that he knew this person …
Apart from that, the second Stetson saw her, she looked like she had finally reached a glimmer of hope as she shouted, “M-Master Ghose! Save me…!"
Previous ninja attacks had freed Stetson and Xyrielle from Carlos' grip, and Stetson quickly used this opportunity to run towards Ghose, gritting his teeth as he glared at Carlos as soon as he stood behind the middle-aged man.
His eyelids were now twitching slightly, Carlos placed his hands on his waist, laughing out loud before saying, “Interesting! How very interesting! I would have never imagined that Ghose, the famous elite Goldenslinger ninja, would actually seek refuge from a small family like the Laidlers! Fix me if my guess is wrong! ”
“You are right, although in return, I have my own questions for you. You are also a famous person who has practiced to achieve spiritual enlightenment, right? Why are you making things so difficult for this junior? If you really want a worthy opponent, you could just look for me! Anyway, as long as I'm here, know that you won't be able to touch Young Master Laidler!” reply Ghose, his pronunciation slightly misses occasionally.
Either way, it was proven that both of them were the best among the best, and their conversation alone was enough to create a strange and pressing atmosphere that enveloped the entire underground area …
Expecting a great battle to start between the two at any moment, no one dared to speak or even breathe too loudly ...
However, to everyone's surprise, when Carlos finally opened his mouth again, he simply laughed before saying, “While I, Carlos, am a fearless man, he said, to be honest there are too many problems for me to deal with Goldenslinger ninjas. I'm sure you're well aware that you're not scaring me, Ghose. Even so, I really don't want to deal with any additional issues from Goldenslinger, at least for now. With that said, I will leave Stetson alone today! Think of it as my way of honoring you today!”
Having said that, Carlos simply waved his hand slightly, a clear indication that he would not continue to give Stetson any trouble for now.
As Finnegan— who was still standing under the stage— breathed a sigh of relief, Carlos asked, “Omong by the way, are you going to help the Laidlers gain the power to rule this time?”
"Yes, and if you plan to get it yourself, I'm not against a fight with you!" ghose replied while carefully holding the handle of his katana.
"Forget over! I recently suffered a number of serious injuries and I really don't have the energy to battle big with you right now! Still, I remind you that at my peak strength, a stronger person could be one of us, Ghose. Putting that aside, while I'm fine with letting Stetson go because he's with you, I'm pretty sure you don't need to interfere in terms of those two young women. Simply put, if you don't fight me over them, I plan to dry up the essence of their lives to heal myself! carlos said as he pointed at Xyrielle and Perla.
Hearing that, Yaakov immediately got up and bowed in front of Ghose, pleading, “M-Tuan Ghose! I beg of you to save my daughter too..!”.
Even Xyrielle and Perla become increasingly nervous when they realize that Ghose doesn't even know who Yaakov is.
Not getting an answer, Yaakov then turned to look at Finnegan before saying, “Please, Finnegan! Please tell him to save my daughter too! I... I will hand over the power to rule this year to the Laidlers if you do, and I will make sure that the Waddy fully supports you during that period!”
After hearing that, Finnegan—who had just calmed down a few seconds ago—found himself hesitantly saying, “...It...”.
As Finnegan thought about it, Xaverie and his other friends—who still hadn't moved from their starting place— anxiously awaited his answer. Still, who could have anticipated an evil person like Carlos to appear all of a sudden?
With how powerful the old man was, it was evident that Waddys and Laidlers found it hard to deal with him.
After all, thinking about all this reminded Xaverie of Stetson.
'I remember him closing his eyes as he climbed the platform... It gave the illusion that he was an extraordinary man... Even so, I'm now convinced that he's not that great. After all, every time he hit an opponent stronger than himself, he ended up in a miserable state!'
Completely speechless as she thought about it, Xaverie suddenly recalled that Gerald was still beside her.
“...Hey, Perla is your friend, right? Aren't you anxious at all..?” xaverie asked as he turned to look at her... Only to find that Gerald's eyes are closed!
'My Lord! Did he really nap at a time like this?!' Xaverie thought to himself, now furious as he gently began to shake Gerald's shoulder.
The second Gerald opened his eyes, however, for a moment he saw two beams of light coming out of them! How scary!
