<h4>Chapter 538: Eye-Opener</h4>


    Ang finally understood Minos'' strength after feeling her energies being sucked away. At the same time, her body became heavier and heavier, as if there was an invisible force trying to suppress her movements.


    But she didn''t have much time to think about those strange reactions when she felt the force of the des sent by Minos towards her.


    ''Shit! This attack is stronger than my defenses!'' Sheined to herself, unable to dodge the des that cut towards her.


    In addition to not taking Minos'' strength so seriously, she had also created a situation where not only her opponent had been limited, but herself...


    As a result, between the time Minosunched his attacks and the time those des were close enough to her body, Ang hadn''t had time to disable her previous technique or dodge her opponent''s des.


    She just used most of her energy to create arge shield in front of her, which looked like a silvery liquid, which trembled softly.


    Swooish! Swooish!


    Puff!


    "Ahhhh!"


    Immediately after the shock of Minos'' attack and that woman''s defenses, the former shieldpletely deformed, while several of the spears in the vicinity of that spot split in half, where the earlier des had passed.


    Finally, Ang screamed in pain as she felt cuts on her legs and arms!


    They weren''t deep to the point where this woman''s life or limbs were at risk, but still, they were bleeding, and anyone in that spot could see the red of that woman''s muscles.


    On the other hand, she had taken a series of steps backward due to the remnant wave from the previous collision, already with an utterly dark countenance on her beautiful face.


    "This boy… He…" She looked in the direction of young Stuart and tried to understand the strength disyed by him, but right then, Ruth appeared running after him!


    Pow!


    Fists of Pain!


    After seeing Ang take those merciless attacks from Minos, Ruth had wasted no time and started running towards her opponent.


    This young woman knew very well that the most vulnerable moments of a fight asionally happened after attacks, so she didn''t want to miss any opportunities!


    Minos was an opponent somewhat different from ordinary people. Still, even so, it would be difficult not to open even the slightest opening for your opponents during a close fight.


    So, even if the young Stuart was quite efficient in his fights and left few holes in his defense, there were still spaces for this young woman to try to act.


    As such, she had quickly approached her opponent from behind, already activating her attack technique and punching towards Minos.


    As she did so, a giant fist formed in the air and raced towards Minos'' back, expanding little by little as it traveled through the atmosphere there.


    Puff!


    Just as Ruth''s attack was about to touch young Stuart''s body, he quickly somersaulted into the air and used his arms and weapons to fend off that fist, which was as big as he was himself.


    ng!


    Quickly, Minos was forced to take three steps backward at the same time as his partner was running towards him again, ready to attack him once more!


    ...


    While Minos and Ruth were focused on a battle that would cheer anyone who witnessed it, Ang remained frozen, doubting everything she saw and felt.


    She had taken enough blows to cause significant pain in her arms and legs. Still, this woman was also shocked to see Ruth attacking Minos and that young man dodging and attacking that young woman back.


    Both those youths were exposing powers simr or greater than hers, especially Minos, who was already as strong as someone at the middle of level 54!


    In fact, when she felt the first punch Ruth had sent towards Minos'' back, Ang had thought that if she tried hard in the fight and had a little luck, she could fight and beat this ck-haired girl.


    But no matter how much she thought, she couldn''t see herself beating Minos!


    ''What a terrible monster!''


    Gulp!


    Swooish! Swooish!


    However, while she felt impressed by Minos'' oppressive strength, suddenly two des were sent by that young man towards this woman.


    Minos had decided to fight both of them simultaneously, so he wouldn''t just let this white-eyed, white-haired woman watch the fight. Thus, he hadn''t been slow, and as soon as he''d had the first chance to send long-range attacks in Ang''s direction, he''d done it!


    Vuup!


    Immediately upon realizing this, this level 54 Spiritual King made a decisive backward jump, already using her movement technique to the maximum to dodge the attack.


    Puff!


    In doing so, she turned her body 45 degrees to the left while slightly bending her legs and letting her body slowly fall to the ground.


    Finally, the two des passed through the air until they went towards one of the walls of that courtyard of Minos'' residence.


    But unlike an explosion and subsequent destruction of part of that young man''s house, only a semi-transparent green barrier appeared around that wall until the attack was fully absorbed.


    "Miss Ang, stop wasting time and join me!" Ruth yelled aloud as she continually sent punches in the direction of different parts of Minos'' body.


    Pow!


    Swooish! Swooish!


    ...


    After some time fighting together, Ruth and Ang had put more pressure on Minos than before, even causing a series of injuries to this young man''s body.


    The two of them were bing increasingly vulnerable to this young man''s techniques as Ang lost energy early in the fight, and Ruth was not as strong as Minos.


    And due to the Devouring Art, it didn''t take long for Minos to ovee the disadvantage of facing two opponents withbat power close to his own!


    Pow!


    Ruth threw herst punch while looking quite tired, with a few streams of blood here and there and sweating considerably.


    On the other hand, Ang was already on the floor of that fight tform, breathing hurriedly with her mouth open, as she watched thest movements of that fight.


    She also had a dozen more wounds on her body at this point and just hadn''t passed out due to her determination!


    Finally, young Stuart didn''t look as bad as his two opponents, but still, he too had exhausted himself quite a bit during this fight, and several bruises could be seen on his arms.


    Puff!


    Minos then kept his two swords into his spatial ring and crossed his arms in front of his body, defending himself against Ruth''s punch.


    And as this young woman was already in herst attack, he barely took any damage, promptly having made his final move to end this fight.


    He caught that young woman''s left wrist with one of his hands and then pulled her towards his and gave her a bear hug... "I won!" He said under his breath as he inhaled his partner''s perfume.


    "Sigh!" Ruth sighed deeply as her hands traveled over Minos'' body. She then said softly. "Since it''s like that, you''ll have to carry me to my room..."


    "Hmmm."


    Young Stuart then made a quick movement, resting Ruth''s face on his shoulder, while one of his arms supported her legs and the other her back.


    He took a few steps towards where Ang was and then looked at her for a moment and said. "You can find one of my housekeepers and ask her to take you to Mia. After that, that person will help you and Regina settle down somewhere in the Dry City."


    "Alright..." Ang said under her breath as her conceptions changed little by little. "That was an eye-opener for me, thank you..."


    "Hehe, if you want to have lunch with me one of these days, we can talk more about it... But for now, get used to the new reality and settle down in the Dry City." He said that just before leaving that courtyard and heading towards Ruth''s room...
