LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

A moment later, the taxi arrived at the outer perimeter of the tournament venue. The driver said, “Buddy, we’re here. I can’t go any further.” The driver turned to look at Jun Chester and froze.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Compared to just a moment ago, Jun Chester’s face was now covered in dense, red tattoos. The driver could no longer recognize his original appearance. How could this be? The driver’s mind went blank.

Jun Chester offered no explanation, took out his phone, paid the fare, and got out of the car. The driver took a long time to recover from the shock. How strange! How did the young man do it?

Jun Chester did this in order to participate in the martial arts tournament under a different identity. This identity was that of the former leader of the twelve Lords of Cinder Chapel – codename Blood Demon.

His cultivation level was at the peak of the Luminescence stage. Due to the secret style he followed, his face had red tattoos covering it all year round.

Jun Chester disguised himself as “Blood Demon” solely to test the twelve Black Knights. Before he returned from Bastille Highs, the twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel had already submitted to Jun Chester. As for whether their submission was genuine or fake, Jun Chester still needed to confirm it further. If it was fake, he would kill them! If it was genuine, Jun Chester had other plans. After all, Lordran was about to eradicate Cinder Chapel soon, and he needed some intelligence!

Meanwhile, the martial arts tournament officially began with the opening ceremony. In the square in front of the Commercial Tower, representatives from the sixty countries were all present. At this moment, however, the square was in an uproar. Everyone’s attention was focused on David Chester, who had walked out of the river. The media from all over the world also pointed their cameras at David Chester.

James Myers looked on from afar, and even the usually calm and collected man couldn’t help but feel a hint of worry upon seeing David Chester. Today was destined to be chaotic. The twelve Black Knights standing around the Commercial Tower also looked at David Chester, all of them shocked. David Chester’s long hair continued to grow, and the aura emanating from his body was suffocating.

“Is this… the peak of the Luminescence stage?” The twelve Black Knights’ faces turned extremely serious. Colbert Osborn and Phoenix Myers, standing in the square, were also extremely tense at this moment, especially Phoenix Myers. Just nine days ago, a single punch from David Chester had severely injured her. However, she still had a chance if David Chester hadn’t left quickly at the time, and she had already assessed his strength. Now…

Phoenix Myers muttered, “It’s only been a few days? I… I can’t even see through this guy’s true strength anymore!” Colbert Osborn’s response immediately made Phoenix Myers even more alarmed, “This guy has already broken through the peak of the Luminescence stage!” Phoenix Myers’ eyes widened, “Just one step away from the legendary realm?” Colbert Osborn solemnly corrected, “Half a step!”

Phoenix Myers swallowed nervously, “I’ll notify our people to gather now!” “Our Dirtmouth troops alone might not be enough to ensure the safety of this martial arts tournament!” Colbert Osborn hesitated for a moment and then spoke coldly, “Have them prepare the strongest weapons of the Dirtmouth army, just in case!” “After all, the twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel are here, and each of them has reached the Luminescence stage. Moreover, they’re clearly not here as friends!” “If David Chester and the twelve Black Knights join forces…” “Unless Lord Chester is present, nobody can turn the tide!”

But just as he finished speaking, David Chester, who had already walked to the center of the square, let out a sinister laugh. “Lord Chester?” “Hehehe…” “Hahahaha…” “I will kill you!” The last four words were like thunderbolts. Some of the reporters closest to David Chester were killed by his shout. Their recording equipment was also shattered at this moment. The scene was suddenly thrown into chaos.

The representatives of various countries were also shocked at this moment, completely unsure whether David Chester was a friend or foe. The next moment, Krolin, who had originally walked alongside the king of Cyand, quickly approached David Chester. His eyes were filled with fanaticism as he looked at David Chester, and his face was twisted with a vicious smile. “I knew you would come.” “The twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel are all in position. Today, we will kill everyone here!”

These words, if heard by any of the alliance leaders, would be like thunderbolts. Especially those representatives who wanted to execute Jun Chester felt they had found support. David Chester was the son-in-law of Cyand’s former prime minister. He had come, and the twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel had also arrived. Everything was settled!

David Chester’s next words, however, shocked everyone present to the core. “Cinder Chapel, twelve Black Knights?” “What are they worth?” “Today, they are merely witnesses to my execution of Jun Chester!” Everyone was terrified.

He didn’t even take the twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel seriously? Such arrogance had reached its peak. And there they were, the twelve Black Knights, standing on the surrounding four buildings, exchanging glances. Yet none of them dared to descend from the buildings or approach David Chester to speak with him; they could only watch coldly as events unfolded.

It was only then that people understood. David Chester truly had the capital to be arrogant. In his presence, the twelve Black Knights of Cinder Chapel dared not make a sound.

At that moment, Colbert Osborn suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was standing in front of David Chester. His gaze was as sharp as a hawk’s, unblinking as he stared at David Chester, like a caged tiger ready to pounce. Many important figures in Lordran saw Colbert Osborn take action and breathed a sigh of relief.

“With our Commander-in-Chief here, we have nothing to worry about!” Colbert Osborn looked at David Chester without saying a word. In the next instant, he had become a shadow, throwing a powerful punch at David Chester’s head!

Whoosh!

They could hardly see what had happened! The Commander-in-Chief’s punch was not to be underestimated. For years, Colbert Osborn had been stationed on the frontier, and the peace there spoke for itself. But what happened next left the crowd in stunned silence.

Faced with Colbert Osborn’s attack, a hint of coldness flashed in David Chester’s dark eyes. “Childish!” Just as David Chester threw a punch.

Boom!

Their fists collided! As the air exploded, a crisp cracking sound followed. Immediately after, Colbert Osborn was sent flying ten meters away, like a kite with a broken string! Everyone present was dumbfounded.

How… How was this possible?

At that moment, almost everyone doubted their own eyes. The Commander-in-Chief of Lordran, Colbert Osborn, defeated in a single strike by David Chester?

Colbert Osborn couldn’t believe it either. With just one punch from David Chester, his arm had been utterly destroyed! His entire fist was covered in blood, and the bones of his forearm had pierced through his skin near the elbow! It was a horrifying sight! The pain was unbearable, even for someone with Colbert Osborn’s extraordinary endurance!

Silence! A deathly silence!

How could there be… such incredible power?

The twelve Black Knights standing on the surrounding buildings couldn’t believe their eyes. It was well known that Colbert Osborn could easily defeat any three of them in single combat. Yet, he was now in such a wretched state after being hit by just one punch from David Chester! Everyone looked at David Chester again, their eyes filled with panic.

Terrifying! Almost everyone present had faces ashen as death, silent as cicadas in the cold. Colbert Osborn had been the pride of Lordran. Now… he was ruined!

David Chester had already walked over to Colbert Osborn, stepping on his destroyed arm. His voice boomed like thunder. “Do you know that there is a difference between the Luminescence stage and the peak of the Luminescence stage?”

Colbert Osborn was drenched in sweat, but he didn’t make a sound! It was at that moment that a shadow suddenly flashed by, and with incredible speed, a hand grabbed David Chester’s arm. In the next instant, it seemed as if the arm was gently tugged…

David Chester’s right arm was torn off. “Ah!”
