Novel Full Chapter 533 - Knight Of God
-----
Frank saw with a smile what he had done, this was his doing, a powerful new being, a paladin, had been born. A knight of his own that served him as if he were a divine being, a god! And well, he was.
His divinities manifested in his mind as Matsuo saw these visions, and felt completely enlightened by the prospects, he had grown stronger thanks to Frank's amazing help, the divine protection was way more than he could had ever hoped to get, and way more than he could ever bargain for at this moment.
He certainly had not the power to become a demigod at least, but he could be considered to be someone given the task of slaying evil gods by the god he prays to, that feat alone can be done by hero-type mortals capable of even slaying godly beings!
There were sorts of types of beings like these, they were rare but not impossible to appear, they were the peak that mortals could reach, and even further beyond that horizon. They're often called Limit Breakers, for going against the belief of needing divinity to defeat another divine being…
Matsuo was being shaped into a Limit Breaker, and his first step was attaining a status as Frank's Paladin. Now, he was his first Human Knight too, and he was already showered with gifts from the mere divine protection. Now, he had to fuse such gifts with his talents and show Frank he could do his job…
"We are ready here, Clementine, Harumi, what about you two?" asked Frank.
Clementine and Harumi stood up from their seats and slowly began to walk down.
"We are ready as well, no need for any preparations." Said Clementine.
"Excellent, then let's get to it." said Frank, he walked down with Matsuo, as the two reached the arena.
Matsuo couldn't help but feel nervous, he was actually being soothed by the power of Frank's divine realm, the faith he had on his friend reached a divine level as if his best friend was also his god. His faith soothed his heart's concerns and gave him the courage to move forward and confront these powerful beings, one of them being his friend and the other his friend's mother.
"It has been a long time since I've been wanting to fight against you, Frank. You're a mysterious man filled with all sorts of intrigues. Maybe through fighting I will be able to get to learn some of them. I am not going to hold back, I might go all out, so you better not hold back either if you don't want to be knocked out." Said Clementine.
"Don't worry, Clementine, I am well aware of your amazing strength, I will go accordingly… And indeed, I am also quite intrigued about you too, Leader of the Vampire Clan, since I heard about your Vampire Clan that I've always been intrigued about it, now I feel rather happy to know I can get to know and meet it." said Frank.
"Fufu, have you had your fun now? Did you liked my vampires? They all have their own motives to fight, their own backstories, and their own capabilities and talents, some more than others, but not less worthy of being my Elites." Said Clementine.
"I've been indeed rather captivated by their power and passion. Every single one of them seems to be a good and strong person deep down, you've chosen your retainers well, Clementine." Said Frank.
"And I've got to know your family, your friends and also your wives. You're surrounded by an interesting bunch, they're all quite unique and interesting… I am more and more interested in those that couldn't fight though, I wish I could had seen what they could offer too." Said Clementine.
"Perhaps for another occasion we can make up another tournament, seems to be a good way to train and push our people to the limits, so they can concentrate into growing stronger and more… I've seen some of them awaken their new powers, it is truly something amazing. Fights like these should be normalized." Said Frank.
"Right?! You get me right, Frank! We'll make them normalized so everyone here can break their limits! Hahaha!" laughed Clementine, showing off a bit of her insane side to everyone without a car of the world.
"Mother you're embarrassing me…" sighed Harumi.
"Ah! My bad, dearie, I didn't wanted to embarrass my beloved daughter… Hahaaha…" said Clementine.
"I am surprised I'll get to fight you, Harumi, let's do what we can to achieve our own victories, no hard feelings, alright?" asked Frank.
"Sure… About time you get back to me for what I did to you back then, when we first meet…" sighed Harumi.
"Oh, that… I had just forgotten about that! Haha… But yeah! Maybe… I won't hold back on you either. You seem to have a lot of save dup power!" said Frank.
"I do… I seem to be stronger than I believed… S-So I will show you that I am a worthy fighter, and someone that is worthy of being called a rival too." Said Harumi.
"Heh, you've gotten more open-hearted now, haven't you, Harumi-chan? You've truly changed quite a lot, but it's not like it's a bad thing…" said Matsuo.
"Matsuo… We have spared a few times before… But now we seem to be in completely different levels now… So I will try to go easy on you… Mother, you too. Don't be too hard on him." said Harumi.
"Ehh? I am going all out! I don't care~" said Clementine.
"Geh…" mutter Matsuo.
"Oh, this guy? You can hit him as hard as you can! He got himself a pretty good armor and his bones are resilient enough. I've given him a gift now so he should grow progressively stronger as we fight… Let's just say he had become my Paladin." Said Frank.
"Paladin?" wondered Harumi, looking at Matsuo's new aura flowing from him… there was a hint of Frank's power mixed on it, as if the two friends were now connected through a divine pact.
"Oh? Is that so? I see… Let's see how far your divine protection can take him then." Said Clementine.
The last fight was about to begin!
