“But of course! Please, follow me!” replied the staff as he led Gerald and Nori into another hall. Upon entering, a multitude of talismans could be seen hung dazzlingly on the walls. With all of them seeming to have varying levels of quality, Gerald quickly began browsing to see which ones he needed. Thankfully, the ones inside this hall were much affordable, ranging only from prices between a few thousand to several million dollars. It took him about an hour, but by the time Gerald was finally done, he had bought a few hundred middle and high-quality talismans. He got himself a few dozen rare quality ones as well. In total, the final sum amounted to a whopping hundred and thirty million dollars! Naturally, Gerald had used his own money to cover the extra costs. Still, Gerald now knew how pricey these talismans could get! Even so, they were a necessary purchase. After all, he wanted to have them ready for self-defense and also in case of emergencies. The best thing about tali

Jonas’s expression seemed to darken exponentially as he howled in rage. Truth be told, both the Zahns and the Lagers were equally powerful in Jaellatra. Since neither family was weaker than the other, both families made sure never to offend each other. Due to Gerald’s involvement in Nori’s matters this time, however, it appeared that the two families were finally going to have a dispute… “Don’t worry, Johnie, I’ll definitely help you out with this matter. In fact, I’m telling father about this! Let’s see what the Zahns are truly capable of!” growled Jonas as he narrowed his eyes before supporting his brother back to his room to get some rest… Fast forward to that night, the Quantock family manor could be seen brightly lit and servants of that family seemed to be standing guard all over the place. Zaki himself was standing in the lobby, looking at everyone before him rather anxiously. After all, the three elders had been gone for almost an entire day now! Despite that, they ha

It was the next morning when a few luxurious cars could be seen parked before the Zahn family’s manor. Notably, each of the cars’ license plates began with the word ‘Lager’, making it clear who was paying the Zahns a visit. After the beat-up Johnie returned home yesterday, Jonas had reported the incident to his father—who was also the head of the Lager family—, Augustus Lager. Upon hearing that someone had hurt his second son, Augustus was rightfully enraged. It certainly didn’t help that he was a man who was very protective of his children. Unable to stand the fact that his beloved son was injured, he was here today to argue about this with the Zahns. “Master Zahn, if you weren’t aware, your daughter’s boyfriend beat up my son! How do you plan to settle this? I won’t leave till you give me an acceptable answer!” shouted Augustus who was currently sitting cross-legged in front of the leader of the Zahn family, Yoshua Zahn. Before Yoshua could even reply, Nori—who had been sta

The second Jonas’s sentence ended, Gerald’s voice could suddenly be heard! Recognizing that voice anywhere, Nori then exclaimed, “Gerald!” Following that, Gerald walked in rather casually with his hands in his pockets. While Gerald’s surprising arrival made Nori’s heart race, Jonas and Augustus’s faces instantly turned red in rage! “So, are you the one who hurt my son?” growled Augustus as he glared at Gerald. Turning to look at him, Gerald then snorted before scoffing, “That’s right! After all, your arrogant son was the one who challenged me to a duel! What? Is he now trying to get others to take revenge for his sake after he lost? How pathetic can he be?” Hearing that instantly sent Augustus’s blood boiling! For a brat, Gerald really knew how to pinpoint his weakness! As Gerald had said, Johnie would surely be a laughing stock should people come to realize that he got his family to take revenge for him after losing to a duel that he started! “Whatever the case is, you

His fist aimed at Gerald’s head, Jonas was sure that upon collision, Gerald’s skull would instantly split open! However, he was a fool if he thought that Gerald was going to grant that chance to him. With great ease, Gerald simply stepped to the side to dodge the attack! Even so, as Jonas’s fist flew right past Gerald’s face, Gerald could feel the immense power in the punch… As someone who had entered the First-soul-rank of the Sage Realm, Jonas was undoubtedly a strong one… Unfortunately for him, his opponent was Gerald. Realizing that his attack had actually missed, Jonas was left slightly shocked. To think that Gerald was actually this fast! Quickly recovering his wits, Jonas then swiftly turned around to launch a lethal kick at Gerald! However, once again, Gerald dodged the attack without any trouble. From that alone, the difference in the duo’s capabilities was made clear as day. In the world of martial arts, the speedier one always had the advantage, and this was cl

Following that, Augustus quickly led Jonas into one of their cars before leaving immediately. Seeing that the Lagers had left, Nori joyously cheered, “You did it, Gerald! You’re so strong that even Jonas wasn’t your opponent!” As Nori continued praising Gerald, Yoshua the other Zahns could only continue staring at the youth, still surprised by the outcome of that battle. Noticing that her family was speechless, Nori then took the chance to introduce Gerald to her father. “Father, this is the person I was talking about earlier! His name is Gerald Crawford!” Hearing that, Yoshua simply nodded before signaling them to return to the hall for now… Once seated, Gerald took the initiative to greet, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Master Zahn!” “The pleasure is mine. You know, Nori’s been telling me how powerful you were for a while now… After witnessing the events of today, I can safely say that I agree with her!” replied Yoshua, looking at Gerald with a satisfied expression. “Y

It wasn’t long after before an old man donning long robes entered the Zahn family manor. With a gold badge pinned near his chest, the individual was none other than Master Chace Hunt himself, a Second-rank Talisman Master in the Talisman Union… “Ah, you’re here, Chace!” said Yoshua as he quickly walked over to greet the old man when he saw him. “So, what exactly did you want to meet me for, Yoshua?” asked Chace without beating around the bush. With how casually they were talking to each other, it appeared that both of them were old friends. “Well, I’d like to introduce you to someone who has interest in learning how to craft secret technique talismans. I figured the details could be sorted out better face to face, which is why I invited you over!” replied Yoshua with a smile. Slightly startled when he heard that, Chace then joked, “Don’t tell me you’re trying to make your precious daughter my disciple!” Instantly laughing in response, Yoshua then replied, “I’d be overjoye

A few seconds later, Chace lowered his brush before tossing the talisman into the sky… And just like that, the talisman transformed into a golden phoenix that then soared away! “This talisman is called the Soaring Golden Phoenix!” explained Chace as he signaled for Gerald to begin. Getting the hint, Gerald then closed his eyes before carefully recalling each of Chace’s previous brush strokes. Seeing that Gerald wasn’t writing anything after a while, Chace then said, “You know, you can just give up if you can’t do it!” ‘Give up…?’ Gerald thought to himself, feeling slightly upset. When did he ever admit defeat? Giving up just wasn’t in his dictionary! After a few more seconds, Gerald suddenly opened his eyes wide before reaching out for the brush and beginning to draw a talisman similar to Chace’s. With how fluid his movements were, it almost felt like Gerald was guiding water down a river as he drew. It was so fluid, in fact, that Chace found his initial disdain quickly cha
