The Conclusion

Natale was shivering in anger and humiliation. On the other hand his uncle, Felix had a tense expressionon his face. For him and his family things had completely slipped of his hands. All what had already happened was a complete humiliation for the Clove family. For elite families such as theirs, how they were perceived in the outer world was an extremely important matter. But now even if his family recovered somewhat from the mess they themselves had created, Natale would never command the same respect againg. Not all the younger generations of other influential families would look upto Natale as their leaders. His respect had benn completely crushed by the young Vantistart.

Natale finally could not take it any further. His anger got the best of him and he lost his composure completely. He stood up and roared, "Bastard I am going to kill you."

At his sudden roar the spectators were stunned. They did not even completely registered what Natale meant when he rushed at his full speed towards Amden. Gone was their previous agreement about not using mana.

Natale circulated his mana at fast pace and had also covered his mana over his sword. Although at any other time this would have garnered a lot of praises as coating one sword with mana required a very high control over thier mana and achieving something at his age was definitely praise worthy.

Natale's speed this time was many times faster than his previous speed. For all the people witnessing the duel, there was no way Amden could protect himself from that strike. And it meant only one thing. Death.

At the incoming strike Amden did not even flinched. At the last moment when he was just to be severed halfway vertically he raised his right hand and clipped the coming sword strike between his index and middle finger. His grip was like an iron grip. The sword was forced to a standstill in moments and it did not even moved a distance of sand grain.

This scene had everyone in the crowd on their feets and their hearts in their mouth. Their eyes bulged open as it would fall anytime soon.

Even before they had any time to process what actually happened and before Natale could react at the new circumstances, Amden attacked.

Amden's fist of the other hand slammed on Natale's chest. His chest caved in and Natale was sent flying to the edge of the duelling stage. Natale's rib cage had ben shattered and blood was seeping from the chest.

Amden moved. Much faster than Natale had moved. He reached near Natale and smashed his leg on Natale's face. The stage cracked and his face was buried in the stage.

Their was pin drop silence in the hall. Although Natale was still breathing he was badly injured.

No one broke the silence for few moments. Amden turned and muttered, "Idiot."

Everyone in the crowd was still processing what had happened when Felix roar broke the silence, "Brat how dare you?"

Just like his nephew he lost his control and forgot where he was.

He was there to protect his nephew now he was plummeted into the ground with a thread of his life left.

With his roar came his menancing his peak S Rank aura. He cared not for any of the consequences and charged towards Amden with his full with the intent to kill him in one strike.

Rexon screamed, "Bastard stop."

Although Rexon too was a peak S Rank just like Felix he was a bit far away from his son and was already late by few precious second.

Felix was just few metres away from Amden and was about to make his strike when everything changed.

An overwhelming aura filled the garden. Everyone was forced on the ground. Felix was suppressed completely and he vomited a mouthful of blood. The temperature rose drastically. It looked like everything would melt in the heat.

Then appeared Clara Samaila. The aura she was releasing was SSS Rank. Rexon had given the SSS mana stone to Clara. She had been absorbing for months and with the help of the technique from Amden she had broken into SSS Rank. Everyone widened their eyes in surprise. Vantistarts had another SSS Rank.

Clara spoke without any expression, "It seems Vantistarts have been lying low for too long. Anyone think that they can touch the heir of the Vantistarts. Should I kill a few ?"

Although her voice was calm and expressionless it was no less than a death order in the ear of other people.

After few moments she finally eased her pressure. Then with a wave of her hand Felix and Natale were thrown and smashed out of the villa. And she disappeared.

Then the banquet resumed. Ravien, Trot and the girl with Natale along with their protectors instantly left. Few other people connected deeply with Cloves or Carters also left.

Slowly normalcy returned to the banquet. With the news of addition of another SSS Rank and the birth of the monstrous genius people started to flatter the Vantistarts to forge a good relationship with them.

Even the old poeple with Dramon were stupefied seeing Clara's aura. Although they didn't reacted much they were in turmoil.

The Banquet continued till evening and finally it ended on a happy note.
