Chapter 414: How Can I Lose To A Man

“Miss Rupert, did you start yet?” Pierce South asked impatiently.

“No, why are you in such a hurry?” Rupert said with a voice-changing tool. “The man isn’t a normal wizard. I have to prepare sufficiently. Just wait for my news. You’re so annoying.”

Pierce South was annoyed, but this was a famous witch. He could be angry, but he didn’t dare express it.

“Okay, that’s all.” Rupert hung up the phone.

Rupert’s temper wasn’t good at all. Of course, this was also because she was too young. She had to use this method to disguise herself so others wouldn’t dare to offend her and she could protect herself.

“How can I beat that guy?” She had a headache.

Rupert flipped through the spellbook in her hands. Suddenly, she stopped at one page.

“Swallow All is a spell from the King of Gluttony.”

Rupert’s heart jumped. The image of the spell looked really similar to the spell that the man used today. Unfortunately, the book only introduced the spell. It didn’t include how to use it.

This disappointed Rupert. Clutching her head, she cried out, “Teacher, why did you die so soon?”

Right then, a figure emerged gradually behind Rupert.

Whack—

Rupert got hit in the head. Clutching her head, she said, “Teacher, I didn’t say anything bad about you.”

“I heard it all. Don’t refute it.”

“You know the spell Swallow All, right?”

“No. People did in ancient times, but it wasn’t passed down.”

“Why not? The spell looks really powerful.”

“Because no one can learn it, so it wasn’t passed down. Many ancient spells are lost now. Magic only thrived during the Dark Ages.”

“Really? But I met someone today who used Swallow All.”

“Impossible.”

“It’s true. It’s a Chinese man. I put the sacrificial curse on a leather ball. He discovered the curse and swallowed both the ball and the curse.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes. I’m sure that it’s the Swallow All spell.”

“Then you better not piss him off. The spell couldn’t be passed down, but it’s a spell of the seven kings. It’s the personal spell of the King of Gluttony. The magic needed to use it is multiple times what you have. You can’t win against him.”

“But that’s a man and I’m a witch. How can I lose to a man?”

“A wizard’s magic power and status aren’t as high as a witch, but this doesn’t mean there aren’t exceptions. Don’t underestimate anyone.”

“I’m not underestimating him. That’s why I’m thinking about how I can beat him.”

“Why must you get involved with an enemy like him?”

“Think about it,” Rupert replied earnestly. “If I don’t get involved with him, I won’t have money. If I don’t have money, I’ll die of starvation. If I die of starvation, you’ll lose someone to guard. I’m working so hard all for you, Teacher.”

Rupert’s teacher facepalmed. “Why did I choose to protect you back then? I should’ve chosen Sienna.”

Camilla was also frustrated, but she’d chosen Rupert because Rupert was her daughter. In fact, she was her daughter who’d been sealed for 20 years. Rupert was actually similar to Sienna in age.

Camilla had been forced to seal her daughter for a certain reason. After that, she’d failed in a mission to attack a ghost ship, so her daughter stayed sealed.

Camilla didn’t become free until recently. Then she found Sienna and saved Rupert from the seal.

After being sealed for 20 years, Rupert’s memory grew muddled. She forgot that Camilla was her mother. Rupert thought that she was Camilla’s student, just like Sienna.

“Stop thinking. I won’t let you go against someone that you have no chance of winning.”

“You can’t stop me.”

“I’m your teacher!” Camilla yelled.

“But you’re my guardian spirit now. Shouldn’t you be protecting me, instead of stopping me?”

“Sometimes, stopping you is protecting you too.”

“I think you should go protect Sienna instead. She seems to be in big trouble. Super big trouble.”

“What trouble?”

“She ran into a Nest of Curses. Someone’s making them.”

“Is she okay?”

“She’s okay for now, but someone in L.A. is hunting witches. She’s so weak. She’ll definitely be in more danger than me.”

…

Crack.

“Chen, you got stronger again.” Fali looked at the glass shards in Chen Zhao’s hands.

She wasn’t surprised anymore. Chen Zhao would get stronger every now and then. After that, he wouldn’t be used to his strength and destroy things everywhere.

Chen Zhao was frustrated too. After the Mouth of Gluttony had eaten and digested the Nest of Curses, he’d gotten stronger.

He wasn’t sure just how strong his right arm was now.

“Fali, I can’t sleep with you tonight.”

“Oh?” Fali was surprised. It was Chen Zhao’s first time voluntarily not sleeping with her. “You’re busy tonight?”

“Sienna might be in trouble. If she’s unlucky, it could kill her. I need to research a little and see if I can help her.”

“Okay, but you need to be careful too. Don’t put yourself in danger, alright?”

“Of course. I’ll protect myself.”

Crack!

Chen Zhao accidentally warped the bowl in his hands. This was made out of metal. His left arm seemed to have gotten stronger too. It wasn’t as crazy as his right arm, but the change was obvious.

“It’s right that you’re not sleeping with me tonight. With your crazy state, you’ll definitely hurt me.”

Chen Zhao shrugged. It seemed that he had to get used to this strength faster, so Fali wouldn’t kick him out.

He went to the gym to test his right arm. He could now lift a 300-kilogram barbell like it was a dumbbell. This wasn’t his limit either.

Snatching 500 kilograms with one arm was easy too.

Now, he was considering getting a custom-made barbell.

This barbell was at a professional standard, but the bar was already bent from the huge weight. If he added more weight, it would definitely snap.

Next, he used a pulling method to try to test his left arm. He could pull around 1,400 kilograms. His right arm was more than twice as strong as his left arm. He felt like he could reach 3,000 kilograms.

The current Chen Zhao was a true human-shaped monster.
