It was silent as if a needle that was dropped onto the ground could be heard.
It was like the wind sound had disappeared after the fight ended.
Brent and Daisy Hill were extremely nervous and shocked. They were terrified as they looked at the Mysterious Man and the ninja who were standing in place while showing their backs to each other.
The fight happened too quickly and it ended quickly too.
Even two of them were not clear who had won the fight.
Drop…
Suddenly, a sound of water dripping was heard.
This sound was as loud as thunder in the silent forest.
It had made Brent and Daisy come back to their senses.
Two of them rushed towards the empty space with a fast speed.
When they got nearer.
Brent and Daisy’s pupils suddenly contracted.
They could clearly see that the half-broken short katana in front of the Mysterious Man was stained with red blood. The water dripping sound was the sound of the blood that dripped onto the ground from the katana.
‘The Mysterious Man had won?!’
Two of them were confused and surprised. They looked at the ninja who was showing his back to them at the same time.
When two of them looked at him.
The ninja’s body trembled.
His bent body suddenly moved backward and straightened like someone who was stretching his body.
Poof!
At the moment, blood was gushing up towards the sky from the ninja’s stomach. The blood was sprinkling onto the ground and the forest.
A sound was heard as the ninja fell onto the ground. The blood gushed out of his stomach. In the blink of an eye, he was lying on his blood and the blood smell suddenly became thick as if it could make the others vomit.
‘He really won!’
Brent and Daisy looked excited.
Clang…
At the same time, the half-broken short katana in Mysterious Man’s hand had fallen to the ground.
Two of them immediately turned and their expressions had changed a lot.
The sleeve around the Mysterious Man’s right hand that held the katana had been stained by the blood. The piece of his sleeve that was cut slipped into his hand at the same time. It was full of creases.
There was a wound on the Mysterious Man’s right arm. The blood flowed down along his arm to the ground.
“Senior.”
Two of them were frightened and they rushed towards him.
The Mysterious Man waved his hand, “I am fine. You clean up here.”
After saying that, he wanted to leave.
Yet, Brent spoke to stop the Mysterious Man.
“Senior, the fight just now…”
He knew that the Mysterious Man was injured and he shouldn’t disturb him at the moment.
However, he was curious about the fight just now and he couldn’t help but ask him.
Because in Brent’s entire mercenary career, he had met a lot of tricky opponents. Some even let him be in a life or death situation. However, without exception, he had never met Masters like the Mysterious Man and the ninja.
In other words, for Brent, the fight between the Mysterious Man and the ninja… was out of his understanding!
At the moment, even Daisy also looked at the Mysterious Man. Because for her … it was also out of her understanding.
“When our levels are different, the fight would be different too.”
The Mysterious Man walked towards a tree that had a thick trunk. He raised his left hand and pressed on the trunk.
Under the watchful eyes of Brent and Daisy, his left arm suddenly trembled.
Bang!
A loud sound was heard.
The trunk was immediately exploded and the pieces of the wood were flying everywhere.
Brent and Daisy trembled at the same time.
The Mysterious Man slowly said with a hoarse voice, “There was a difference between the strength and force. When you can do what I just did to pulverize the inner part of the tree trunk into powder in one day, you would understand the fight just now.”
Brent and Daisy were completely stunned.
After the Mysterious Man disappeared, they finally came back to their senses.
Looking at the tree trunk that was pulverized, two of them felt extremely nervous and frightened.
