Chapter 202
"Did you miss me?" Ed spoke in a rather relaxed manner for someone entering the enemy range . As expected, no one bothered to talk to him, and the old man with the long katana sent a flying slash towards him .
"Not exactly the kind of welcome I would have liked," Ed said as if the attack didn"t concern him . He used s.p.a.ce magic and redirected the attack towards the quiet young man .
The young man put his hand up and blocked the attack, causing an explosion to go off inside the tent . This caused the tent to blow away and the five of them were exposed to the sun . The young man opened his eyes and glared at Ed .
"Don"t look at me like that; I only did it to protect myself . He"s the one that attacked first . " Seemingly in a playful mood, Ed mocked the commanders .
"Let"s do this the right way, shall we? No need to be "so serious"!" Ed clapped his hand and walked to a position where all four of them were in front of him .
"Ah, it"s kinda noisy around here . Let"s change the scenery . " Ed clapped his hands and the surroundings changed immediately . It still looked like a wasteland, but there was no sun . It was nighttime so the moon and stars illuminated the place along with several torches spread around the area .
The four commanders felt a shiver go down their spine as they tensed up . All of them withdrew their weapons and were about to rush at Ed .
"Wait wait, we"ll fight but in a second . We still haven"t introduced ourselves . "
"My name is Edward Avalon, son of Arthur and Elizabeth . The one who will murder you all in a second," said Ed while bowing towards them . The four commanders seemed unimpressed, but they put their weapons away and did the same as Ed .
"Maria," said the woman that seemed to be acquainted with the man that was killed by Ed . She didn"t bother to ask about his fate, as Ed"s presence said everything .
"Alexander . By the way, kid, if this is your doing, you have bad taste . " The old man said while looking around at the surroundings created by Ed"s dimension .
"Letif," The quiet young man said and went back to silence .
"Adriana," the silver-haired woman said . Before they could do anything, Ed looked at her and said, "Lilliana, the person that was sent to Aaragon . Was she your sister?" Just as Ed finished talking, Adriana rushed at him with an incredible speed .
She was told that her sister was killed in a horrific way, but she didn"t know who did it . No one realized who Ed and the others were back in Aaragon since only the guards were still alive . She couldn"t spare the time to go back and interrogate the guards, and she couldn"t even recover her sister"s body since Ed had incinerated everything in the castle .
"YOU I WILL NEVER FORGIVE!" Adriana approached him at a speed unlike any he had seen before . However, he had done his job, as he riled her up enough so she wouldn"t be able to focus on fighting .
"I"m the one that will never forgive you for your deeds . " Ed"s expression turned into a serious one as he withdrew Shusui . Those that saw the weapon remembered it and put on their guard, except Adriana . She continued her charge even though she saw Ed preparing to attack . She tried to use her speed to catch him before he could finish preparing, but she failed, as just as she was in front of him, he released a flying slash .

She tried to use her speed to catch him before he could finish preparing, but she failed, as just as she was in front of him, he released a flying slash .
"Kuh!" Adriana frowned as she blocked it with both her hands, making her retreat tens of meters to the back . Then, she did a movement with her hands, as if slashing with them, causing the slash to dissipate .
"Is that all you can do?!" she shouted and approached him again . Ed"s slash didn"t injure her, as only a patch of red skin appeared on her delicate arms .
"Of course not," said Ed as appeared behind her, attacking her with another flying slash . But, before he could do anything more, he was attacked by Alexander . The old man"s speed was more terrifying than Adriana, as he pursued Ed without lagging behind .
"So, level four, five, six and seven . Did you guys decide on this order of cultivation level or is it a coincidence?" said Ed as he studied their levels . All of them were above Immortal Establishment level 4, which means stronger than Edgar who fought Arthur .
"As expected, it"s too much even for me, hmph!" Ed barely dodged an attack by Maria, who seemed to use her hands instead of a weapon . Adriana recovered and a.s.saulted Ed back with a rapier in her hands .
"Oh? Why are you retreating, Sir Alexander?" Ed found it odd, as he saw Alexander sheathing his Nodachi and retreating to the back .
"I do not wish to kill you in such a state . " Ed thought about it and finally understood . Alexander was talking about fighting one on one, but in this case, Ed was already fighting two at once . Alexander retreated once others interfered .
"I don"t really mind, you know?"
"I don"t really mind, you know?"
"I"m glad you don"t because I"m not as chivalrous . " Letif appeared behind Ed with a saber in his hands . He attacked him so many times per second that Ed actually got a couple of cuts on his abdomen and arms .
Maria then attacked Ed with a high kick, which he guarded with his shoulder, sending him flying . He crashed a couple of times on the ground, and when he got up he found Adriana trying to stab his eyes . He escaped by using a short teleport .
"Okay, time out! Just like I said, this is too much for me right now . But of course, I know my limits, so why did I come here to fight you people at once?" Ed"s words hinted that he had a trump card, making his opponents put up their guard even more .
"Activate the Berserk skill," Ed spoke to the system in his mind .
[Are you sure? We didn"t try it out you know?] The system asked him, knowing what his answer would be .
"It"s okay . We"re the only ones here, so I won"t hurt anyone before collapsing . "
[Alright . ]
All of a sudden, the commanders could feel Ed"s power increasing .
Immortal Establishment level 1 .

Immortal Establishment level 1 .
Immortal Establishment level 2
Immortal Establishment level 3
Immortal Establishment level 4!
"Aaah! I can still think straight hahaha!" Ed"s outburst of laughter shocked the commanders . Even his voice carried hints of his power-up .
"Really, my luck was really good," Ed spoke as he looked at a skill in his status .
