Chapter 313 Head to Head
The atmosphere in the room electrified as Jett made his first move.
A frenetic wave of excitement surged through the crowd of ruffians, as they sensed an impending duel.
Every gaze fixated on Jett, a celebrated ancient warrior hailing from the legendary Chamber Mountain.
“Word on the street is that Mr. Zimmer has the power of a true Upper Third–rank Grandmaster, so he holds the rank of a Second–rank Grandmaster!”
“Only a warrior of ancient lineage can ascend to such an elite rank. It’s a level of prowess mere mortals can only fantasize about!”
“See that ice dagger in Mr. Zimmer’s hand? That’s made from never–melting ice from Chamber
Mountain.”
“It’s more than a weapon. It’s a straight–up magic weapon!”
A cacophony of voices layered upon one another, each person contributing fragments of lore about Jett.
To them, he seemed invincible, and they were convinced Leones would soon taste defeat. The notion of challenging an ancient warrior and surviving was unthinkable.
Taking his stance, Leones looked poised for the encounter.
“Watch yourself, Your Majesty!”
“Don’t underestimate him. He’s an ancient warrior of the storied Chamber Mountain!”
Darius and Chad were visibly on edge, their concern for Leones palpable.
“Shall Fairy assist you, Mr. Bloom?” Marie interjected hurriedly.
The crowd speculated that if Leones allied with his pet python, Fairy, he might stand a chance. “There’s no need,” responded Leones with composure. “I brought Giant Python to watch over you all. Stand back. I’ve got this under control.”
Whether it was his prior scouting or the imminent showdown, Leones had been self–sufficient but also feared for the safety of Darius and the others. That was why he’d brought along the Giant Python and made it their personal bodyguard.
The two combatants locked eyes.
“See this ice dagger?” Jett taunted. “It’s crafted from eternal ice.
“I intend to pierce your heart with it!”
Eternal ice?
Leones found the claim hyperbolic.
“Time will tell, but shortly, your so–called eternal ice will be a mere puddle,” Leones said, his voice steady.
“What?!”
Jett erupted in incredulous laughter.
“Boasting on the brink of death, are you?
“It looks like you’re unaware of just how lethal this ice dagger is! The chill emanating from its

surface alone reaches hundreds of degrees below zero Celsius! Most people wouldn’t survive even a brief touch. You presume to melt it?
“Haha! Maybe I’ll use this ice dagger to pierce your mouth first. Let’s see you talk then!”
Jett lunged forward, his formidable frame moving with astonishing agility.
The ice dagger emanated a frigid aura that collided with Leones’s face.
Taking in the cold from a distance, Leones acknowledged his initial underestimation.
This wasn’t something a regular guy could handle.
Its temperature could instantly freeze someone to death.
Leones was prepared to retaliate with his sword, but then he remembered the special dagger Aaron had gifted him.
It was hardly inferior to Jett’s weapon in size.
Swiftly sheathing his sword, Leones unsheathed his dagger.
“Now, let us ascertain the superior blade. Your eternal ice dagger or the me by Aaron!”
