Love at the Wrong 1824
Yet, what shocked them was that Emmanuel hadn’t
been defeated even after exchanging more than a
dozen moves with Rhett,
“Black Wolf Team, you shall fall!”
In the next moment, Rhett let out a rare, thunderous
roar,
With overwhelming force, his fist suddenly
emerged beneath his red cloak, aiming straight at Emmanuel’s face,
“It’s over!” The crowd was stunned by the scene
before them, with those words echoing in their minds,

Mackenzie gripped the armrest tightly, cold sweat
breaking out on her forehead. Her heart pounded
as though a demon had it in its grip.
Suddenly, Emmanuel’s figure became hazy,
The next moment, Rhett’s seemingly inevitable
punch met nothing but air as Emmanuel’s figure
vanished!
“How is that even possible?”
The crowd gasped in shock.
Even Blake, who was watching the spectacle from a
distance, was taken aback by what he saw. He
grasped his unruly hair and shouted, ‘Ahhhh! How
did that scoundrel Emmanuel improve to this
extent? I’m now miles behind him!”
Rhett felt his body drenched in cold sweat.
He knew better than anyone that Emmanuel had
not just sidestepped his blow with sheer speed.
Rather, he had anticipated his next action!
He had experienced the same sinking sensation
during his fierce battle with Xarri in the ruins, except
Emmanuel was an even better fighter than Xarri.
Rhett spun around, his eyes fixed coldly icily at
Emmanuel’s fist, which was resting against his
lower back. He asked through gritted teeth, “Why
didn’t you take the chance to knock me out?”
“I don’t aim to harm you,” Emmanuel murmured,

letting out a heavy breath.
Rhett retorted with a cold snort, “If you don’t use
your full strength, not only will you be unable to
defeat me, but you’ll only enrage me further! The
consequences will be more than you can bear!”
話
Emmanuel sighed. He still needed Rhett’s
assistance. Injuring him now could jeopardize his
entire plan.
“That’s exactly why I find you irritating, Emmanuel!
I’m determined to defeat you or even kill you! If you
don’t put forth your best effort, it feels like you’re
insulting me!”
Rhett didn’t believe that Emmanuel had used all his Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
strength in that last blow. He didn’t appreciate
Emmanuel’s courteous gesture at all, and
Emmanuel’s intentional withholding of strength
only fueled Rhett’s burning humiliation.
He roared in rage and launched a brutal attack on
Emmanuel again.
Rhett’s actions grew more violent, and his heavy
blows shattered the arena into pieces!
Witnessing the scene, the Dark Night Islands‘
faction fell into silence.
In contrast, the Airspace Group members were all
visibly pleased. Freya even exchanged a knowing
look with Yasmine, showing obvious signs of
delight.
鏡 If things went on like this, Emmanuel would be lucky
just to escape without being killed by Rhett, much
less win the match.
To genuinely defeat Rhett, Emmanuel had to take
him down so badly that he couldn’t get back up.
Otherwise, Rhett’s stubborn nature meant he would
néver admit defeat.
Boom!
Emmanuel took another direct punch from Rhett,

which threw him back and made his arm feel
slightly numb.
As soon as Rhett charged at him again, Emmanuel
used the Art of Adaptability to preemptively grab
his wrist, thus preventing him from unleashing his
full strength.
“Why?” Emmanuel leaned close to Rhett’s ear and
said loudly, “Are you putting so much effort into
defeating me just to top the Dark Night Islands and
become the supreme leader of all the clans?”
“No!” Rhett smirked, “What good would such a
pointless title do for me?”
Given his years of reigning over the Dark Night
Islands, he would have declared himself the
supreme leader long ago if he wanted to!
Emmanuel realized that, too. Thus, he looked at
Rhett with even more confusion. He asked again,
“So what exactly are you fighting for?”
“For redemption!” Rhett answered firmly. “I failed to
safeguard the previous Saintess and allowed her to
leave the Holy Trinity. As a Holy Guardian, I cannot
forgive myself for this grave mistake. I must keep
Her Holiness here and complete the unfinished
mission left behind by the previous Saintess to
achieve redemption.”
Emmanuel was stunned by his words, unable to
understand how his thoughts had changed so
radically in a short time.
If that was his mindset from the beginning, he
would never have conversed with him like that on
those previous occasions!
What had happened between then and now?

Seeing the looks on Rhett’s and Emmanuel’s faces,
the Queen of the Dark Night Islands grinned
smugly.
The awestruck Yasmine couldn’t help but be
completely impressed by Freya’s prowess. Within a
day of Freya’s return, she had resolved the issue
that had plagued Yasmine for so long.
Regardless of how the fight turned out, the motley crew of the Dark Night Islands was unlikely to pose a significant threat to the Airspace Group.
