Chapter 300 Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing [Part 3]
Conall eyed the flying young man in the sky and sneered.
“I’ll make you understand that flying doesn’t give you any advantage against me,” Conall declared.
As soon as he made his declaration, three silver discs flew out of his storage ring, which were the size of a plate.
Without warning, Conall jumped upward, heading towards Ethan’s direction with a sneer on his face.
Of course, his jump was unable to reach Ethan’s height, but his next move surprised his opponent.
One of the floating discs positioned itself directly right under his feet, serving as a foothold.
When Ethan realized what happened, it was already too late.
Due to Conall’s explosive speed, he appeared a meter away from Ethan, throwing a punch that the latter barely managed to block with his trident.
However, since he was only using one hand to hold the trident, he was unable to gather enough strength to block the attack completely, which sent him flying backward.
The handle of the trident even slammed against Ethan’s chest, making him groan in pain from the impact.
Conall didn’t miss this opportunity and used another one of the floating discs to jump above Ethan.
Another floating disc appeared behind his foot, allowing him to descend upon the young man’s body to deliver a powerful kick that sent Ethan crashing towards the ground.
Illumina hurriedly created several bubbles of water to help mitigate Ethan’s fall, but these bubbles exploded right away due to the force of Conall’s attack.
Even so, the Mermaid Princess had already expected this to happen.
“Illumina…” Ethan said through gritted teeth.
The wand then transformed into a water dragon that caught Ethan before he could fall on the ground.
“He now has better control over his Partial Resonance,” Professor Rinehart commented.
“Yes,” Professor Barret replied. “But it's still not enough to beat Lily’s Older Brother.”
Professor Rinehart nodded.
Both professors knew that Conall was indeed only using half of his full power, yet Ethan was already unable to face him head-on.
This was not because Ethan was weak.
His opponent just had more battle experience than him.
Illumina gently placed Ethan on the ground and hovered above him in a protective manner.
Conall, who had achieved what he wanted, landed on the ground with a confident smile on his face.
“Not bad…” Conall said. “I guess Lily lied when she told us that you are a Dud.”
Conall gave his sister a sidelong glance before shifting his attention back to the young man, whose blood was seeping from the corner of his lips.
He had already managed to land two blows on Ethan’s body, and he was certain that the young man had suffered internal injuries from those two attacks.
He wasn’t wrong, and Ethan had indeed received serious injuries from his two blows. However, the blood of a Deity wasn’t just for show.
Although blood was seeping down the corner of Ethan’s lips, his internal injuries were not enough to prevent him from continuing to battle with Lily’s brother.
“Can you do it, Ethan?” Illumina asked the young man through telepathy.
“Yes,” Ethan replied. “But I am unable to move from this spot.”
Illumina nodded. “Understood. He is coming, get ready.”
Seeing Ethan’s fearless gaze despite his injuries, Conall couldn’t help but smile.
‘If only he didn’t have more women in his life, I would have stopped here and acknowledged him,’ Conall thought. ‘But that's not the case, so I won’t be satisfied until I give him a proper beating.’
As soon as he made up his mind, Conall lunged towards Ethan.
The three discs that were still floating in the air also descended towards the young man.
They were made from steel, so getting hit by them was very painful.
Conall could control these discs as if they were part of his body, which made him a very versatile fighter.
Among Lily’s Older Brothers, Conall was the all-rounder.
His strength and speed were very balanced, unlike his other male siblings, who either specialized in pure strength or pure speed.
Ethan’s eyes glowed faintly as he channeled his magic power to his feet, allowing it to spread throughout the entire arena.
When his opponent was only several meters away from him, Conall increased his speed drastically, appearing right in front of Ethan with his right fist, planning to strike.
But just as his punch was about to hit his target, Ethan disappeared and reappeared behind him.
“Rising Dragon Thrust!” Ethan roared as he thrust his Sea God’s Trident forward, with the intention of stabbing Conall’s back.
His magical power flared, and his trident turned into a Water Dragon.
Conall wasn’t fazed as he prepared to dodge Ethan’s attack by stepping to his right side.
However, just as he was about to do that, the wet surface of the arena under his feet became slippery, making him lose his balance.
‘Sh*t!’ Conall cursed internally as the Water Dragon slammed on his body, sending him flying towards the stands of the arena.
Lyall, who saw this, had her mouth wide open in disbelief.
She didn’t expect that Ethan would manage to land a blow on her Older Brother, making her look at the handsome young man in a new light.
“Lily, I know that I already said this earlier,” Lyall said. “But when you break up with him, make sure to hook us up.”
Lily didn’t reply because she was seriously paying attention to the battle.
Because of this, she managed to see something that made her almost jump on the stage of the arena to warn Ethan.
But it was already too late.
Something red pushed itself out of the Water Dragon’s body.
A moment later, a red blur flew towards Ethan at great speed, making the young man unable to react.
“Nice try,” Conall growled as his fist connected with Ethan’s chest, resulting in a breaking sound. “But not good enough.”
As soon as he finished saying those words, the young man’s body flew like a cannonball toward the stands, where Chloe, Luna, Nicole, and Emma, were seated.
Ethan coughed out a mouthful of blood as he flew towards them, but Conall wasn’t going to let it end that easy.
Once again, he lunged at the young man, using the floating discs as a foothold.
Conall had fully transformed into his Beast Form, which was a two-meter-tall Red Werewolf with skin as hard as steel.
Lily’s Older Brother was now using his full power, and he wanted to give Ethan another blow, which would not only give him a more serious injury, but would also send him flying towards the ladies, who cared for him.
This was a truly vile move, but his bestial instincts had clouded his judgment due to the anger he was feeling.
He found it humiliating to have been forced to use his Full Power against his opponent, whom he had looked down upon earlier.
Conall appeared right in front of Ethan, but before delivering the final blow, he whispered something in the young man’s ears.
“Don’t worry,” Conall stated. “I’ll send you and your women to the infirmary together.”
After hearing those words, time seemed to move incredibly slowly.
In that trance-like state, the loud beating of Ethan’s heart resounded inside his head.
He didn’t mind getting beaten up, but involving his lovers in this battle touched way beyond his bottom line.
Ethan, who was already seriously injured by Conall’s blow, opened his mouth to reply to his opponent’s declaration.
(A/N: Bankai!)
“Grand Aria.”
Suddenly, the world around them changed completely.
Conall found himself above the sea, where thunderstorms were raging. He momentarily forgot that he was about to give the final blow to Ethan, which would end his battle versus him.
However, the handsome young man, whom he was about to punch, was now holding onto his fist in a vice grip, preventing him from going anywhere.
Ethan’s eyes radiated with power as he unleashed the Third Level of his Legacy.
Lily's Older Brother had touched his reverse scale, and despite being seriously injured, he didn't hesitate to use it against his opponent.
The next thing that Conall saw and felt was Ethan’s right fist, which was imbued with lightning, smashing into his face.
The blow was so strong that Conall felt as if he saw sparks the moment Ethan’s fist made contact.
However, it didn’t end there. After punching his opponent, Ethan unleashed another punch, this time, stronger and faster than ever before.
A pained cry escaped Conall’s lips as he crashed towards the turbulent sea, who rose up to hold him in place.
With a mighty roar of anger and defiance, Ethan raised up his right hand and summoned a thunderbolt from the sky.
He then wielded this thunderbolt and pulled back his arm, treating it as a spear.
“Triaina!” Ethan shouted as he hurled the lightning spear towards his hateful foe, causing more lightning bolts to descend from the heavens, covering the entire world in blinding light.
