"That's a serious accusation," Jonathan spoke coldly.
"I'm just speaking the truth," Nick said. "What's so serious about it when it's the truth?"
"Big Gourmand does not work with Gluttony!" Jonathan shouted as his aura intensified.
He released his Zephyx to threaten Nick. "You might have become a Late Specialist, but you are weak in battle. If you prove to be an obstacle to Big Gourmand, you will vanish."
Nick snickered. "Vanish. Funny wording."
Jonathan's aura became more intense.
"I know you're working for Gluttony," Nick said. "And you know that I am responsible for the disappearing Extractors."
"You're admitting it?" Jonathan asked with narrowed eyes.
"Yeah," Nick answered as he ate more meat. "So? What you gonna do about it?"
BANG!
Jonathan pulled out a sword and attacked Nick.
However, the sword stopped mid-swing, and Jonathan's eyes widened in horror.
Nick just calmly took another bite as he held the sword in place with his telekinesis.
"Sit down," Nick answered.
WHOOOM!
The next moment, an apocalyptic wave of Specter Zephyx washed over Jonathan, and he felt like his heart stopped.
This power!
How was Tarren so powerful?!
He had to be a Mid Hero, no, Mid Demon, at least!
Nick's telekinesis forced Jonathan to sit down.
Then, Nick cleaned his clothing before calmly standing up from his cart.
Jonathan saw Nick's body transforming.
He lost all his extra weight and turned into an athletic version of himself.
The next moment, Nick walked over to Jonathan and put his hand on his head.
"You think this is my first city?" Nick asked with a friendly smile. "You think I've never done this before? Oh, please."
"This is my fifth city," Nick said. "I'm already a Peak Demon, and I will soon become a Fallen."
"You think having Gluttony as your backer helps you? You think Gluttony will protect you?"
"No, Gluttony will write this city off as a loss and abandon you."
"The only thing I have to do is call Aegis and tell them everything. Within a couple of days, a team of Agents will arrive to take your precious Specter away."
