Chapter 759: So unfair


    ?


    Kyle''s eyes flickered with surprise as he nced at the two familiar faces.


    He had not expanded his scent perception skill, as it had recently be somewhat overwhelming for him. This was due to the fact that he had achieved a breakthrough to the supreme rank a week ago, which had significantly heightened his senses.


    Sinon was equally surprised to hear Jian''s familiar mischievous voice behind them.


    He had been so focused on the intense battle with Kyle that he concentrated all his attention to him, causing him topletely overlook his surroundings.


    Unlike the other two, Alec and Carcel''s eyes were filled with mirth. They had sensed Jian and Regius''s presence the moment the two appeared behind them.


    Alec turned around, a smirk on his lips. His gaze met the mischievous red eyes staring at him before he nced at the familiar elf floating beside Jian.


    "Finally back, huh? You two took your sweet timeing back to meet us!"


    He clicked his tongue and met Jian''s gaze, feeling a twinge of bitterness when he saw thetter''s strength through the system. It had increased, and Jian''s physique was almost as strong as his.


    "Why are you asking for permission? Can''t you see we''re getting battered by that cruel human? Come join us! Let''s beat him up!"


    Jianughed, already excited for a good battle. As a mage, he quickly moved back and took his ce at a distance, ready to chant a variety of powerful spells, but that didn''t mean he was physically weak.


    Following Kyle''s advice, he had diligently worked hard to strengthen his physique, even though he mostly used the treasures he found that caused him a lot of pain. But despite the difort, he had no regrets, as they didn''t harm him in any way.


    He felt fortunate that his luck had dramatically improved since meeting his future self. Now, he was confident that even if he picked something up from the trash, he would discover a treasure or two!


    Jian licked his lips, a wicked glint in his crimson eyes. He was eager to test whose luck was now greater-his or Kyle''s!


    Seeing the red-haired man ready, Regius grabbed his short swords and positioned himself next to Alec and Sinon.


    Carcel and Kurt moved to the left side, joy dancing in the elder''s eyes as he mmed his knuckles together.


    Kyle raised an eyebrow at being surrounded, amused that they wanted to overpower him with their numbers.


    "So unfair."


    His words echoed in the air, igniting a thunderous roar of discontented cheers from below. The sound came from a few inds where countless individuals had gathered to witness the battle between the Ice Monarch and other powerhouses. They had been silent, watching the intense battle, but seeing two more powerful opponents join the fight against Kyle displeased them, as many had ced significant bets on him. They didn''t want him to lose!


    James''s lips twitched in disbelief at the astonishing scene unfolding in his territory. He had only stepped away for a short time to go and locate the Universe''s Will, yet Kyle and his friends had transformed it into their own personal battleground!


    He nced at the two older individuals he had just summoned, but they avoided his gaze as if it had nothing to do with them.


    James rubbed his temples and sighed. He wanted to go check on Odiak and question how he could allow this to happen when the enemies were so close by.


    However, as he extended his senses, he was bewildered to discover that the old dwarf was actually among the many individuals cheering for the battle!


    All of a sudden, a very, very troubling premonition shed in his mind.


    "Damn, don''t tell me he''s betting too!"


    He vanished, feeling a bit anxious at the thought of Odiak''s bad habit of betting. He could only hope that the old dwarf hadn''t wagered his entire wealth on Kyle in a moment of excitement!


    Neon, Han, and the group of individuals he had brought with him could do nothing but watch as he disappeared, not even leaving behind an afterimage.


    However, they were soon distracted by a powerful sound reverberating in the sky. Yet, they couldn''t see anything except faint, blurry lights shing like lightening.


    Alec and Kurt hadunched an attack on Kyle, but he skillfully sent them staggering before turning to counter a powerful me spell from Jian, as well as the short des of Regius and the explosive punches from Carcel and Sinon.


    Neon''s eyes sparkled with amazement, pride, and joy after he saw his little brother, whose familiar figure now appeared muchrger. Although he was the older brother, he felt as if Kyle had surpassed him, making him feel almost like the younger one. A broad smile spread across his face as he shouted alongside the enthusiastic crowd, wishing his brother the best of luck. Han blinked when a loud shout echoed beside him. He nced at Neon''s tall figure and chuckled, feeling a bit overwhelmed. It was difficult to believe that the rascal who once called him ''master'' had be so strong and formidable that he could now hardly keep up with him visually.


    Hearing Neon shout, Kelvin, Lumi, Faith, Niamh, and all those dazedly standing with him jolted and joined in.


    Kelvin cheered for Jian, while Lumi, Faith, and Niamh cheered for Regius. The others simply followed their lead.


    Serena watched the youngsters with an amused smile and moved to stand beside Han, her husband, shocked that Han''s troublesome student hade so far.


    Lily remained silent, her calm eyes fixed on the blurry lights in the sky. She could not even discern how they were fighting.


    ''Too powerful. It''s as if everything I knew before was just a speck of dust. Almost as if I am nothing. What do I need to do to reach the level they are at?''


    She dug her nails into her palm, her eyes darkening for a brief moment with a hint of ambition and greed, but it quickly vanished as a sweet smile spread across her face.


    Beside her, Lucus and Sen were both dazed, wondering if the people in the sky were truly the same ones who had entered the ancient realm alongside them.


    How could the gap between them have widened so much in such a short time?


    Sen felt particrly conflicted. To think that Kyle, who had awakened a lower talent than him back in that small city where they lived as neighbors for a short time, and whom he had once cursed, had be so strong that now he couldn''t even touch him. It filled him with a hint of displeasure and intense fear, a nagging worry that Kyle might seek revenge for their troubled past. He cursed his reckless mouth, regretting that he had ever messed with him in his


    younger days.


    Unbeknownst to Sen, Kyle didn''t even remember him. If he had wanted to kill him, he would have done so long ago in the ancient realm on the blue.


    In the sky, Kyle''s ears twitched at the cacophony of explosive sounds. The noise of the crowd


    below was just as distracting. He fought the urge to click his tongue when one of Jian''s spells struck his arm, giving Carcel the perfect opportunity tond a punch to his abdomen from


    behind.


    Just then, a familiar male voice he hadn''t heard in years resonated from the crowd below, cutting through the chaos and momentarily capturing his attention.


    Kyle turned his gaze toward the massive floating ind where Han, Neon, and the others stood. His eyes widened when he saw his older brother''s familiar figure.


    ''Brother...?''


    That briefpse in focus was all it took for the poeple surrounding him to unleash a relentless barrage of attacks. Instinctively, Kyle raised his arms to shield his face.


    They weren''t holding back at all. He had to admit their attacks were anything but mild, with Alec''s fists delivering the hardest blows that made his skin thrum with pain.


    It felt as if the group was exacting revenge for every punch he had thrown at them.N?v(el)B\\jnn


    ''That''s it!''


    Immediately, the air around him began to warp and crack, creating massive, violent rifts that tore through the atmosphere. The space trembled with a powerful, destructive suction force, causing those attacking him to finally retreat as the rifts threatened to consume everything in


    their path.


    Kyle chuckled softly as every inch of space around him came under his control.


    Seeing his glowing white eyes, Alec bellowed with a dramatic gasp.


    "You said you wouldn''t use anything else except your mes and fists!"


    "That''s cheating!"


    Kurt followed suit with a justifiably indignant expression. Finally, he had the chance to beat


    this kid, but he had to go and manipte a powerful naturalw!


    Kyle''s eyebrow twitched at their words.


    "What cheating? I never said I wouldn''t use anything else. Do you all seriously expect me to


    stay in ce and let you beat me?"


    He was speechless because, from their expressions, it was clear that they wanted just that: for him to remain in one spot while they roughed him up.


    Kyle wanted to snicker, but for reasons unknown to everyone, one of the slender fire arrows


    that Jian had conjured through a spell somehow managed to breach the cracking space around


    him.


    He shifted slightly to avoid it.


    With a nk face, he double-checked that he had truly controlled all the space around him, slightly doubting his own mastery over it, unaware that Jian''s luck had gone up, allowing his arrow to slip through.


    Kyle''s eyes narrowed as he stretched his neck. Slightly displeased, he let themnd so many


    hits on him. He nced toward his brother onest time before curling his fingers toward the


    people around him.


    "Alright, someone important to me that I haven''t seen in a long while is watching. I can''t let them down now, can I? It''s time for me to get serious."


    A chill of excitement coursed through the spines of the group surrounding Kyle. He had been taking them lightly all this time, but now seeing him so serious, they knew he was about to go


    all out against them!


    But they all soon began to regret it when all hell broke loose. Kyle became so merciless in his attacks that they all actually started to consider fleeing.


    Jian was the first to disappear from the battle, as if he had never joined it at all.
