Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1857

By the time Kiyu finished speaking, Severin and Janik took their positions on the arena. A stern expression appeared on Janik's face as he glanced at the young man who had rebuked Thorold's offer. In a city where practitioners were striving to align themselves with Thorold and gain entry to the Deifirm Sect, Severin's rejection and subsequent roughing-up of the Gahrr's honorary elder was a sort of anathema to Janik. It did not sit well with Janik at all, and his expression naturally became sour as he looked at Severin.

With his cold gaze locked onto Severin, Janik sneered, "It was pretty bold of you to disrespect my family's scion like that. Well, let's see what you're made of then!"

In an instant, the rumble of thunderbolts emanated from Janik's body. Thunderous echoes were heard as several silver tentacles bearing fangs and claws surrounded him. It was a hair-raising sight for some.

Spectators marveled at the thunderbolts that were manifested, and they looked on in awe at the electric serpent-like creatures slithering all over Janik's body.

"Isn't this the Gahrrs' Violet Thunderbolt Fist? It's a formidable technique!"

"I can feel my hair stand on end even though we're some distance away from the arena!"

Severin, unfazed by the thunderous lightning, observed quietly and maintained his composure. He mumbled to himself, "He has sufficient aura, and his combat technique appears to be a Sun-grade high-rank technique! A practitioner of the same level might find it hard, and he could even launch a counterattack with this technique! It's such a shame that he had to run into me today."

As the Gahrrs' Great Elder, he had gained much experience in past battles and considered shifting to close combat due to the ineffectiveness of normal combat. The Violet Thunderbolt Fist, which was unique to the Gahrrs, focused on sharp attacks that could be lethal in close encounters.

Janik exerted some force through his legs and charged toward Severin like a cheetah closing in on its prey. "Violet Thunderbolt Fist!" came his resounding yell. As he aimed the punch at Severin, the crackle of lightning rods appeared in the air. A fist-sized lightning seal was then produced as it hurtled straight toward Severin.

Severin did not flinch at the technique. Armed with the True-Sun Fist and Gigantic Hand Crusher, close-quarter confrontations were advantageous to him! As he raised his hand, his fist emanated a fiery glow while simultaneously exuding an intimidating aura!
