The lightning surrounding Amon was like the calm before a storm. The mont he delivered a kick towards Ricard, the lightning around him transford into a vibrant red.
Ricard reacted quickly, raising his arms in an X in front of his head to protect himself, but the impact of Amon's kick was even more devastating than being hit by a truck at over 100 km/h.
"Boom!"
At the mont of impact, it seed as if ti had stopped. The sound produced echoed repeatedly, reminiscent of thunder shaking the sky, combined with the explosion of a grenade.
"Crack!"
"Ahhhhhhhhh!"
When ti seed to return to normal, the sound of bones breaking echoed, followed by Ricard's sharp cry of pain.
"Son of a bitch!!" Ricard scread at the top of his lungs.
"Insane!"
Minerva wasn't the only one who thought so; Frank and Lan shared the sa reaction.
The scariest part of it all was that, even when this blow was executed, as strong as it was, the power level of the black-haired boy, now surrounded by red lightning, was only at the peak of the Grandmaster Rank.
"How can a Grandmaster be this strong!?" Minerva exclaid, completely incredulous. There was no way she could believe it, even seeing it with her own eyes. It was simply insane.
Worse still, if it were against a person in the common Star Rank, fine, but as much as she hated to admit it, Ricard was not common; he was a genius among geniuses with a high ranking at Phoenix University.
What was more surprising was what they saw next. Losing sight of Amon, when they looked, he was already in front of Ricard, who was sent flying. With a punch enveloped in lightning forming a fist larger than a basketball, his punch struck hard at Ricard's chest, who could not defend himself.
After all, who would imagine that soone could move so fast as to appear instantly kiloters away in less than a second?
"BOOM!"
This ti, the impact seed even greater, causing a vibration in the air that seed like it could even create rifts in space.
"Who is this boy, after all?" Minerva asked no one in particular. She simply couldn't understand how soone so strong at a relatively low power level remained unknown. Soone with his brilliance, in her view, should be world-renowned.
What she didn't know was that it hadn't been long since Amon began his rise on the path of power. If she went to the planet where UGRG University was, she would understand that it wasn't that he was unknown, but rather that the ti he started to stand out was relatively short...
Putting her thoughts aside, she turned her attention back to Amon and Ricard.
While Amon attacked Ricard incessantly, the beastly creatures continued to pursue him relentlessly. In the heat of the conflict, Amon's attacks hit several of these creatures indirectly, generating shockwaves mixed with lightning due to the remnants of the blows directed at Ricard.
At this mont, several bruises beca visible all over Ricard's body. He wasn't even able to defend himself or retaliate; the insane speed with which Amon moved, or even teleported, was out of the ordinary, to the point that Ricard began to doubt himself.
"Crack!"
"Boom!"
Following the sound of Ricard's armor completely shattering, the sound of his body colliding with a collapsing mountain echoed.
The sound of an entire mountain collapsing echoed as the sounds of animals resonated in unison. The current situation was too chaotic to be described in simple words. It was a situation similar to the fall of a teor on Earth, devastating everything around it, with traces of lightning crackling both in the air and on the ground.
"Heavens..." Frank felt all the hairs on his body stand on end. The scene before him was horrifying.
"He didn't survive that, right?" Lan, who was hovering above, asked uncertainly.
Minerva, who had been gaping, closed her lips tightly and soon sighed, "Even if he survived, I don't think that boy will let him live for long."
"Should we go help him?" Frank asked. Honestly, he didn't want to; after all, Ricard had used and discarded them. However, his moral sense said he at least needed to consider the idea. As much of a scoundrel as Ricard had been to them...
"If you want to go, go ahead, but I'm not going." Minerva crossed her arms while hovering in the air.
Observing the scene, especially the fact that they could relax without being pursued by the monstrous beasts from before, it beca clear to her that all the suffering and loss they had faced were caused by Ricard. How could she help such a scoundrel? She would rather eat dirt than do such a thing!
Frank shrank timidly, "I won't go..."
Lan laughed a little but soon her expression beca serious as she saw the boy enveloped in lightning flying through the air and falling like a teor towards the crater ford by the mountain's collapse.
The others might not have noticed, but Amon did. With his senses enhanced to the maximum and his emotional genes, he detected Ricard's turbulent emotions. In other words, he was still alive!
Knowing this, Amon flew even higher into the air and began to fall in freefall, increasing his body weight and intensifying his speed as he enveloped himself in lightning. Propelling himself with thrusters on his feet and hands, his speed increased so much that flas began to surround him.
"Whoosh!"
If it weren't for the protection created by the lightning around his body, even he wouldn't be able to escape unscathed from being surrounded by the flas produced by reaching a speed of over 100 km per second!
To the observers, it was an almost beautiful scene: Amon's body ford the center of a teor, surrounded by flas and brilliant lightning. The lightning crackled so intensely that it produced sounds similar to the cries of birds, while the flas burned so fiercely that it seed like they were standing next to a bonfire.
And then, it happened.
"Booooooom!"
The sound of the collision was so loud and powerful that it caused an earthquake, making even the air around vibrate at a frequency that disoriented Minerva and the others. They scread in panic at such a scene.
"Suicide?"
That's what they thought seeing it. Throwing himself directly into such a direct confrontation, becoming sothing akin to an almost nuclear bomb... It was simply psychopathic, even...
If even they, who were kiloters away in the air, were affected, they wondered: Would this boy still be able to survive?
And more: Ricard died for good this ti, right?
