D*mn it! I absolutely refuse to accept this! Apollyon screamed in his heart.
However, his mental shouts could not change the fact that there was simply a vast difference between his and
Calix's abilities.
Apollyon could not fight anymore.
Nonetheless, everyone was deeply amazed by his performance and thought it was a miracle that he had lasted so
long in the duel.
After all, they knew Apollyon had failed to endure even one hit from Calix five years ago.
Yet, at that moment, Apollyon had survived even after withstanding three attacks from Calix.
What could that be if not a miracle?
Zeke looked at Calix and smiled faintly. Interesting. Calix clearly exhibited the strength of a Seventh-and-a-half
Archduke earlier, and he's merely one step away from achieving King Class. At his current level, he can already be
considered a Half-King Class. Surprisingly, he's capable enough to escape my detection. I reckon he must have
utilized a unique technique.
Zeke's interest was piqued by that special ability capable of escaping the probe of a Celestial Class warrior.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZeke knew there was no way Apollyon could defeat Calix at his current level.
Just as Zeke was about to tell Apollyon to retreat, he saw the latter standing up again.
At that instant, Apollyon was mustering all the strength he had just to get back on his feet.
He approached Calix step by step and croaked, “Duel... to the... death!”
Calix laughed out loud. “All right! I shall entertain you!”
Zeke frowned and immediately yelled, “Apollyon, stand down. You are not his match!”
“But—” Reluctant to admit defeat, Apollyon gazed at Zeke.
Zeke uttered, “This is an order!”
Apollyon sighed. When he was about to retreat, however, Calix hurled a stone at him without warning. The rock
smashed right against Apollyon's head.
Apollyon let out an agonized scream before falling to the ground on his back. He lay motionless afterward,
seemingly having been knocked out cold.
“Hah! How dare you dream of backing out of this fight alive? You should've asked for my permission before you did
that!”
D*mn it! Zeke immediately released a stream of energy to check Apollyon's condition. Fortunately, the latter was
still alive. How dare this jerk hurt the people under my protection? I'll make him pay the price today!
A split second before Zeke could make his move, someone suddenly burst forth from among the Centuria.
That person was a woman, and she was making a beeline toward Apollyon, who had fainted on the floor.
“Apollyon, wake up! Hurry up and wake up! You cannot die. Please don't die. How do you expect me to live if
something terrible happens to you? Hurry up and wake up, Apollyon. Open your eyes and look at me!”
Zeke furrowed his eyebrows at the woman.
Megahead, standing next to Zeke, hurriedly explained, “Mr. Williams, she's Floretta, the woman who used to be
together with Apollyon. She was forcefully taken away from Apollyon by Calix. I did not anticipate her to be here
too.”
Clarity washed over Zeke upon listening to Megahead's elaboration.
When Calix saw Floretta, he commanded, “Halt her.”
His subordinates immediately stopped her from moving forward.
Floretta wanted to plow ahead by sidestepping Calix's men, but one of them grabbed her and tossed her to the
ground over his shoulder.
Even then, she continued calling out Apollyon's name.

Hm?
Amidst his comatose state, Apollyon heard a familiar voice that instantaneously stimulated his nerves. This voice
sounds so familiar. It's Floretta. This voice belongs to Floretta! Floretta is here! My wife, Floretta, is here to look for
me!
Apollyon woke up the next second. He lifted his head with difficulty and glanced around.
Finally, he caught sight of Floretta.
She appeared as beautiful and captivating as ever, but her worried and sorrowful facial expression stirred a pang of
pain within him.
“Floretta, this is great... I can finally meet you again...”
Floretta struggled mightily but to no avail as her attempt to break free from the few burly men's restraint was in
vain.
She yelled hysterically, “Apollyon, don't mind me. You need to hurry up and leave!”
Apollyon gritted his teeth. “Floretta, wait for me. I'll save you. I'll definitely rescue you!”
Calix roared with laughter. “Haha! I'd like to see how you can save her today.”
Floretta begged Calix, “Mr. Calix, please show him mercy! If you're willing to spare his life, I'll comply with your
every wish in the future.”
