The legendary warrior

"Ricky!" Winifred blurted out in shock. She couldn't understand why he would challenge Lundy, even when she had already explained about him. She almost put her hand on Ricky's mouth, but Edie interrupted her with a meaningful look.

"Do not interfere, Winifred. People like Ricky, who was once the only demi-spiritual emperor in several generations, are unlikely to surrender to any creature. That is why he must fight whenever he encounters geniuses like Lundy," Edie said to her using his internal power.

"I see, so we have to choose between them, right?" Winifred also replied through telepathy.

"Exactly! And I choose Ricky. It's not only because of his talent but also due to his personality. If we choose Lundy, we'll just be as good as dead," Edie explained.

"What's more, I don't think Ricky is as simple as he wants us to believe. He must have powerful warriors helping him from behind, or he would not have power at the Demi-sage Level."

"I got it!" Winifred nodded to herself but remembered that they had one more issue. "But what about Flint?"

"Just ignore him. If he wants to leave, let him go!" Edie answered indifferently as if he could not care less whatever happened to Flint.

Meanwhile, Ricky was still insulting both Lundy and Kirk.

"I'm always playing with fire, for I have yet met a warrior who can kill me. On the contrary, I have killed them all in the end. So, do you want to try to be the exception?" Ricky let out a laugh filled with contempt.

Kirk kept his silence in spite of Ricky's disdainful words. Instead of words, a pair of black wings appeared behind his back like a dark cloak, and he leaped toward Ricky with a fearsome snarl. At the same time, the upper half of his body seemed to turn into huge and sharp claws, which pounced toward Ricky.

Just from the momentum, it could be seen that Kirk was more powerful than Marvel.

However, just when Ricky was about to take action, a white tornado swept over and helped Ricky resist this strike. Then, Edie appeared in front of Ricky.

"Let me be the one to fight this battle!" Edie called out.

"Of course. It will be my honor to finally see you fight. I hope you'll take this opportunity to show me your real power, Edie," Ricky replied with a smile and immediately stepped back.

"Edie, do you really want to set yourself against Lundy?" Kirk asked in an icy tone when he realized that Edie was siding with Ricky. He wanted to threaten him with the name of Lundy more, but he was not sure it would work.
