Chapter 2576 Unmatched
Upon striking down the leaves, Brutus swung his sword toward Jared's head.
Jared turned to the side, and the sharp blade slid past Jared's ear.
The sword was so sharp that, as a result, Jared felt his skin burning.
Brutus was angered and embarrassed because Jared had just dodged both of his moves.
It was important to note that Brutus saw Jared as a lowly peasant, so he thought the latter was no
match for him.
Yet, the lowly peasant, despite being unarmed, had just dodged both of his attacks. Humiliated, Brutus
fumed, “I'm going to kill you!”
As he roared, Brutus' sword lit up and generated shockwaves all over the area.
Jared let out a cold snort when he saw that Brutus was infuriated. In the next moment, Jared activated
Golem Body, and glittering scales quickly shielded his entire body.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that Jared had activated his Golem Body, Brutus became even more pumped, and his sword
consequently shone even brighter.
“Jared, use this as your weapon!”
All of a sudden, Percy shouted and tossed his weapon over to Jared. Jared is unarmed. If the fight
goes on, he'll be at a disadvantage!
Jared reached out to grab Percy's weapon before using it to shield himself.
“Hmph! Do you seriously think that a lousy weapon like that can protect you?” Brutus sneered and
swung his sword toward Jared.
“Even with a wooden stick, I can still beat you.” Jared narrowed his eyes and infused the weapon with
the Power of Dragons.
The initially ordinary blade shone brightly in the next second, and it was buzzing with energy.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Needless to say, Jared managed to block Brutus' attack rather easily.
When the blades collided, a deafening sound reverberated as a massive force spread outward, causing
the trees in the surroundings to be uprooted.
If the fight were to happen in Rock Village, the impact would raze the village to the ground.
Clang!
After the collision, the sound of a piece of metal dropping on the ground rang out.
There and then, everyone saw that the sword Brutus was holding had broken, and all he was holding
was the hilt of the sword.
“H-How is this possible?” Brutus stared at his broken sword in utter shock. I wasn't using a magic
sword, but it was supposed to be a thousand times stronger than Jared's rusty billhook! Yet, he had
broken my sword with that billhook!
Bewildered, Brutus sensed the vicious aura Jared's billhook was emanating. Right away, the former
was terrified.

At the same time, Brutus knew he had underestimated Jared's capability. How did Jared unleash such
a horrifying wave of power with that billhook? He's surely a Compounder, at the very least! How did a
peasant become a Compounder? He's as strong as the other disciples in the sect! I don't get it! What is
an elite like Jared doing in Rock Village?
“It's time for me to avenge the villagers in Rock Village...” Jared slowly raised his billhook into the air,
and the billhook shone even brighter.
The golden glow soon enveloped the sky, shining on Brutus' terror-filled face.
Frightened, Brutus revealed his sect, thinking he could scare Jared off. “No... You can't kill me... I'm
from Emerald Cauldron Sect. My master... He's—”
To his disappointment, Jared wasn't interested in hearing him out. Jared swung his billhook toward
Brutus before the latter could even finish his sentence.
Little did Brutus know that there was no point in mentioning his master's identity. He couldn't scare
Jared off because even his master had to pay Jared respect.
When Brutus sensed the powerful energy Jared's billhook was exuding, the former leaped and
retreated as quickly as he could. I need to get out of here! I'm no match for Jared!
