Asked back by Isabel, Alex's face turned red and blue.
He himself felt bad for only showing up now, but there was nothing he could say.
Yesterday he injured his leg and this morning the injury beca worse.
As a result he couldn't hunt monsters which made his level start to fall behind.
Now that he was able to recover, this was also because his father asked for help from soone with high healing skills or else he would still be lying in the hospital.
Unable to answer Isabel's question, he looked at Oliver.
His expression was filled with resentnt because just this morning, it was this man's subordinate who beat him up.
He already knew that Kim Hana was Miya's secretary, and his family was already planning to ask her for an explanation later that night.
"Oliver, our business is still unfinished," he said.
"Right, you'll have to deal with us too," added Mateo who stood beside him while adjusting the position of his glasses.
He glared but his eyes didn't seem fit to glare.
Oliver stared at them but then ate again, acting like nothing was happening here, leaving Alex and his minions dumbfounded.
Isabel almost laughed as she watched Oliver ignore them.
Because like that, she was also acting like they didn't exist.
Alex's face beca even redder that he was chattering his teeth.
He was filled with jealousy. The woman he loved chose another man, and in front of him she acted like she didn't care about his feelings. This was of course too painful.
In this kind of atmosphere, Oliver started to get carried away.
He suddenly held Isabel's palm so that she straightened her back in surprise.
They had been close for a while but he had never acted like this.
Did he want to formalize their relationship or was it just to make Alex angry?
However, whatever it was, she didn't mind.
Personally, she found it very enjoyable to anger a guy who liked her by showing her romance with the guy she loved.
Pleased with this situation, she ca up with an interesting idea.
Taking a piece of at, she aid it at Oliver's mouth.
Oliver was more surprised than she was, but of course he accepted it happily.
He even took a bite of it before putting it in his mouth then chewing it in an elegant manner.
It was indeed more delicious because it was from the hands of a beautiful woman.
"Thank you," he said in a soft tone.
He glanced at Alex after that. Comparing his face now to a monkey's ass might not be an exaggeration.
Mateo and the others looked like they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
They should be sad for Alex, but even as his loyal friends, they still saw this kind of situation as funny.
It was funny seeing a man so let down by a woman.
"A man who can't buy skills can't protect won, only be protected. If I beco that man, I'd rather die." Mateo spoke, trying to say sothing nice to cheer Alex up and satirize Oliver.
Oliver's weakness in the eyes of people who knew his problem was sothing very fatal.
Having no skills in an era filled with monsters was sothing worse than not being able to earn money.
Such a person might deserve to be said to be unfit for life, let alone for a woman, and that was a very beautiful woman.
When he heard Mateo's words, Oliver remained relaxed, but it turned out that Isabel's expression beca rather gloomy, sothing that was beyond Oliver's expectation because he thought Isabel would remain relaxed considering she knew how strong he was.
The ignorance of others should be sothing to just laugh at.
Before Isabel could say anything, Oliver grasped her palm tightly, which was enough to calm her down instantly.
"It looks like you guys are completely healthy so you can bark better. Well, I'd feel calr attacking a healthy person than a sick one," he said, looking at Mateo and then Alex.
"Huh?" Mateo and Alex seed unsure what Oliver's words ant.
The forr then asked, "how are you going to attack us? Do you think you have the ability?"
"Yes," Oliver replied, picking up a nearby rock and throwing it at the man with glasses.
With his strong physique, his throw was certainly ferocious.
The stone moved quickly before slamming into the man's chest.
BANG!
He was instantly thrown off and coughed up blood with his eyes wide open.
In the end, he hit the tree, making it crack.
This senseless scene actually happened in front of Alex and the others, they couldn't be more dumbfounded.
After all, Oliver was just throwing a rock, not using skills.
How high was his level that his throwing power could reach that point?
Were they already so far behind that even Oliver who had no skills could be stronger than them?
Even though they thought he had no skills, they didn't think he couldn't do leveling.
It could still be done as long as he killed monsters. If he couldn't do it himself, he could ask others for help.
However, such a way should be very slow?
They dared to look down on him, that ant they thought he was still behind them no matter what kind of thod he used.
He didn't care about Mateo who had been thrown away.
He eyes looked at Alex.
Casually, he picked up the iron blade he was using to eat.
Shua!
He threw the blade towards the man's leg, right into his self-inflicted scar.
It was even faster than the rock he threw.
Alex barely saw the blade and it had already pierced his ankle, giving him excruciating pain.
Instantly, he fell to his knees.
"Ahhh..." He was still screaming softly despite trying to hold it in.
In front of Isabel, he didn't want to look so weak.
"You!" His friends began to stare at Oliver with ferocious expressions, oblivious to Alex's leg which began to spurt blood.
"You'd better take him to the hospital imdiately," Oliver told them.
As he spoke, they finally looked at Alex.
Instantly, they panicked.
"Quick, quick, get him to the hospital," one of them said in panic.
Their plan for leveling today was destined to fail again.
They started carrying Alex in a hurry including Mateo.
Even though they have made trouble for him many tis, Oliver still does not kill them.
This is not without reason, of course.
First they were his old acquaintances and had antagonized him for too long.
If they died, then it was too good for them to leave after provoking him so many tis.
He wanted them to first feel the deadly ntal attack before they actually died.
When they disappeared from his sight, he was sowhat surprised.
Isabel suddenly rested her head on his shoulder.
She turned her palm over so that their palms could hold each other.
His gaze went blank as he stared at her eyes which blinked a few tis.
"If I don't take the initiative, I doubt you will," she said.
Oliver, "..."
"You know, I'm a bit shy, but of course, things get easier if you take the initiative even if it's a bit embarrassing for ," he said with a faint smile.
Of course, he needed to speak up so that he didn't look completely shy.
"I can't say that the current you is a shy guy. After all, you look more like a cruel man, even you have a cruel aura," Isabel replied.
Oliver rolled his eyes at that.
"Don't you still like ?" he replied with a soft laugh.
When he said that, Isabel frowned slightly. She pinched his wrist.
"I have nothing to say because I have a loyal nature where I won't look back after liking one guy," she said, looking off in the other direction.
"That Korean woman, hmph, she's not necessarily so loyal," she added with a snort.
Despite acting like nothing was wrong in their relationship. When she started talking, she showed that she hadn't forgotten Kim Hana.
Oliver chose to keep quiet about it, then picked up a piece of fish at.
Only, he didn't eat it, but pointed it at Isabel's mouth.
The woman didn't fully see what he was doing because she was staring in another direction.
Sensing sothing approaching, she looked towards him again only to find a piece of fish at in front of her mouth. It stuck to her lips because of her movents.
"Let's eat so more, there's still plenty of fish at," Oliver said, trying to be romantic.
Although Isabel's expression beca erratic at first, she didn't refuse.
Her lips parted and she took a bite of the fish at, chewing it right away.
She just stared in the other direction as she chewed. Perhaps a little embarrassed to show her expression.
Oliver smiled slightly.
However, a mont later, he heard quite a lot of footsteps from behind the garden, in the direction where the military base was located.
Isabel also knitted her brows when she heard that, as if she was wondering who was coming.
"Sounds like the footsteps of an army," Oliver said.
His prediction must have been correct because a group of soldiers with ferocious expressions appeared right after that.
They were not young soldiers, the average age was in their 30s, seemingly very elite and experienced.
