Adopted Soldier

Chapter 268

Chapter 268


The man that suddenly appeared was none other than Lyner, the strongest of Berdonia . Richter seeing the man was a bit offended by the gaze of a predator Lyner was showing him, but he understood for this man that was the norm . Richter didn"t dare move without fully understanding the opponent in front of him . It would seem that this opponent was actually someone near his level . People near Richter"s level could only be counted with one hand, so he could pretty much guess who the person in front of him was .


From a distance a huge explosion was heard . Yet Niel didn"t really care about that since explosions were a normal sound in their current situation . So instead he excitedly headed towards Lyner while carrying the sleeping Dan .


"Sir Lyner how did you know we where here?"


"I saw you from the jet I borrowed . I had a feeling you guys were in some sort of trouble, so I ditched the unit I was commanding, and left them with Arthur . I saw you were about to be taken by that weird old man, so i ejected from the fighter jet I was using . "


Niel who heard what Lyner said remembered the explosion he just heard . With the current information he had he could already guess what had happened to the fighter jet Lyner was using . Lyner noticing Niel"s strange gaze could understand what this apprentice of his was thinking .


"I properly crash landed the fighter jet towards the heavy artillery of the enemy . That"s why the explosion was louder that it was suppose to be okay . So don"t look at me like that . "


While Lyner and Niel were talking, Richter couldn"t make a move . It was because, even though Lyner seem to be mucking about, but in truth he was entirely focused on Richter . Knowing that he wouldn"t be able to fight properly while carrying his grandson, Richter signaled one of his subordinates to come . It would take them seven minutes to get to him . So he needed to fight Lyner with a handicap of holding his grandson for seven minutes .


Richter could feel his blood boil at the prospect of an actual challenge .


. . .


Lyner who was done talking to Niel spoke to Richter . "Hey old man, how about handing my student back to me . " Lyner pointed at the unconscious Alex who was being carried by Richter like a sack of rice .


"Oh, you"re his teacher? . . . Well it doesn"t really matter, as his biological grandfather, I don"t need to hand over my grandson to you . "


Hearing what Richter said made Lyner smile . He didn"t really care that Richter was Alex"s biological grandfather . That information didn"t even faze him . What mattered was that it was plain to see that Alex was being forced by his grandfather to come with him .


Of course that isn"t what Lyner really cared about, what he truly cared about was right now at this very moment a being that was as strong as him was now there standing in front of him .


"Things have been going my way recently . Just the other day I got to fight Arthur Glory, now I"m able to fight this person who seems to be stronger . "


Lyner took out a pair of black gloves, that had special kinds of wires hidden within it . This was Lyner"s real main weapon . He hasn"t used it in years, ever since he got too strong for his own good . Yet now he had finally found a person worthy enough to use them on .


Richter who was a.s.sessing the man in front of him had determined that this was a person who was nearing his own combat prowess .


"Do you plan to fight me Lyner?" Richter finally got serious as he faced the monster of Berdonia .


"Oh, you know who I am . So to be fair how about you tell me your name as well?" Hearing Lyner"s question Richter shrugged his shoulders .


"I guess you are worthy to hear my name . I am the patriarch of the house of Greyhound, Richter Greyhound . "


"Richter is it? . . . Let me ask one more time, how about handing over my student . " The tension was rising as Lyner said this . Niel who knew that something big was about to happen distanced himself from the two .


"Like I said I don"t plan to hand over my grandson to you . " The moment Richter said this Lyner bursted forward closing in on Richter who flipped his coat showcasing numerous fire arms . Richter then threw Alex upward into the air alongside all the guns in the left side of his coat . Richter then jumped upward, he got a hold of his guns and started shooting at Lyner . The speed in which he switched gun after gun while firing made the firing rate of a gatling gun look laughable .


Lyner waved his hands and wires came out of his gloves, with incredible dexterity Lyner was able to make the wires surround him cutting all the incoming bullets in half, even redirecting some back to Richter .


Seeing the bullets coming back to him, Richter took hold of some other guns floating in midair and fired at the returning bullets redirecting them as well . He then got a knife and threw it at Lyner who was surrounded by an orb shape wall of wires .


After which, Richter proceeded to shoot the handle of the knife with five bullets tripling its penetrating power . Lyner wasn"t able to stop this knife from approaching him using his wires, instead he was only able to slow it down . Once the knife was near his face Lyner caught the knife and threw it back at full force .


Richter seeing the incoming knife tried to catch it but was surprised to feel how strong the return was . In the end he was still able to catch it and place it back in his jacket . He also caught all the guns he threw and placed them back in his jacket . As Richter landed on the ground he also caught Alex"s falling body .


This concluded the first exchange between the two . Richter was surprised to see how strong Lyner was . Of course he had heard of the man, and has a detailed report about him back in HQ, but he wasn"t expecting him to be this strong .


Lyner as well was surprised by the supposed biological grandfather of Alex . He was actually able to keep up with him as he went all out and he even had a handicap of carrying Alex . Lyner could feel something deep within him wanting to burst out . At this very moment, his blood was boiling, his heart beating in excitement, his smile ever joyous .


If it was this man, he might be able to fulfill his most cherish wish . He might finally put a stop to his boredom, and bring him the most glorious death of all .


"Where have you been all my life?! This excitement, this exhilaration, this burning pa.s.sion that encompa.s.ses my soul! Now this is a fight! This is a real battle! Show me more Richter!" Lyner then started screaming at Richter with a smile as vicious as a lion"s .


Richter who was looking at Lyner had an opposite reaction . The more they fought, the more excited Lyner got, Richter on the other hand got even calmer . Richter was now truly fully invested in this battle .


It had been a few decades since an opponent brought him to this state . The fight between the monster and the hound was now truly about to begin .
