“Killing isn’t something I enjoy,” Gwain remarked with an icy tone. “But when

someone foolishly blocks my path, I won’t hesitate to deal with them!”

“Consider this a warning. While you may be powerful, don’t assume you can

take me down that easily!” Xarri replied, showing none of Gwain’s arrogance

or bloodlust. Instead, he looked unbothered and composed. Despite his calm

demeanor, Quell had already unsheathed her sword, ready for battle!

For years, she had been consumed with the desire to return to Chanaea and

exact her revenge, and today, she would begin by targeting the so–called

prodigy of the Lannister family! From what she had seen, this man was anything but noble!

“Haha–me, the true heir to the Lannister family, dealing with an outcast–how difficult could it be? Do you honestly think I, Gwain, lack the confidence to pull that off?” Gwain remained as arrogant as ever, his eyes filled with contempt for Xarri and Quell. To him, members of the Lannister family were from a superior lineage and had inherited the elder generations‘ talents. Besides

that, they had access to the family’s extensive martial arts resources!

Without the mentorship of skilled masters or access to advanced martial arts

texts, how far could these outcasts possibly develop, even with noble blood?

Gwain held onto his arrogance, refusing to strike first, his pride keeping him

from making the initial move. Meanwhile, Xarri had no such hesitation. Having

made up his mind, he confidently took his stance. “I’ll start if you’re not going

to!” He had no plans to let Gwain walk away unscathed, and he was eager to

see if Gwain, rumored to be on equal footing with Emmanuel, lived up to the

stories.

“Whenever you’re ready!” Gwain said confidently, his hands still clasped

behind him, brimming with self–assurance.

Swoosh! With a swift movement, Xarri sprang into action!

“Unbelievable speed!!” Hank gasped in shock. Wyatt felt a chill run down his

spine. Despite Gwain calling Xarri a so–called outcast, he still bore the same

Lannister bloodline, and if Gwain took him too lightly, it could come back to Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

However, Gwain wasn’t truly careless–he just insisted on upholding the

prideful air of a master fighter. The moment Xarri struck, he was ready,

stepping forward to engage. Both fighters unleashed the Lannister family’s

signature technique, the Blossoming Palm. Their mastery of the move was

near–perfect, with equal speed and strength. Neither was gaining the upper

hand as they appeared evenly matched from the start.

At the side, Quell, Wyatt, and Hank watched the battle in awe. None of them

expected the other party’s abilities to rival their own side, which they held in

high regard.

Xarri pressed on with the Lannister family’s techniques, and each time he

executed a move, Gwain mirrored his actions. After exchanging over a dozen

moves, neither could gain a clear advantage. Both fighters appeared similar in terms of strength, their expressions suggesting that they were still

reserving their full strength.

Boom! They concluded their exchange with a palm strike and retreated,

putting a distance of ten meters between themselves.

“Quite impressive,” Xarri remarked sincerely. “It’s clear why the Lannister

family takes such pride in you!” While he hadn’t yet figured out whether

Gwain or Emmanuel was the superior fighter, he recognized that they were

fundamentally different types of fighters! While Emmanuel might lack the

refined elegance of Gwain’s style, in a life–or–death situation, Xarri would bet

on Emmanuel without a second thought! Gwain lacked the uncompromising,

warrior–like presence that Emmanuel brought to the battlefield.

“You’re quite skilled yourself,” Gwain acknowledged. “It’s clear you still remember the Lannister family’s techniques well!” He was unable to gain any ground–not due to a lack of skill on his part, but because Xarri’s approach was exceptionally practical, embodying a refined simplicity! If this stalemate continued, Gwain would be the one to tire out more quickly. Additionally, his stamina was already depleted from a previous fight with Aora, so he was

already at a disadvantage.

“Are we continuing?” Xarri inquired. He wasn’t intimidated by Gwain and felt

capable of continuing the fight. Still, if things escalated to a full–scale conflict,

he and Quell might struggle against Gwain and his companions!

“It’s up to you! I won’t stand in your way if you decide to leave!” Gwain replied.

He wasn’t certain he could overcome Xarri, and it was clear that Xarri hadn’t

yet unleashed his full potential, so there was no point in dragging the fight

out further.

“We’ll leave, but these two are coming with us!” Xarri declared, pointing at

Julian and Ashton.

“Not a chance!” Hank retorted with a scowl. “What is the relationship between

you and them? They can still bring benefits to us!”

“They’re our friends!” Xarri replied resolutely, focusing his attention on Gwain

rather than Hank.
