Lord Protector Novel

Phew!

Luna heaved a sigh of relief. She took out a piece of tissue to wipe off the sweat and blood on her face.

“It took me a while to hunt you down, Great Marshal. You shall meet your end today.”

Zeke said in a calm voice, “I should be saying that to you. I shall send you to reunite with the Satan Forces.”

Luna snorted, “Still trying to act tough, huh? You’re all alone now. How are you going to fight me?”

Zeke replied, “Let me ask you. Between you and Solis, who’s stronger?”

“Solis is slightly more powerful than me,” Luna answered truthfully.

Zeke continued, “If I can kill Solis, what makes you think that I’m not capable of killing you?”

Luna let out another cold snort, “Stop pretending. You had snipers who protected you in secret, and they’re the ones who killed Solis.”

“Did you even see it with your own eyes?” Zeke smirked, “Or did you hear it from someone?”

Luna defended herself, “So what? What’s the difference?”

“Big difference,” Zeke said.

Luna was sick of him, “Enough of this small talk. Go to hell!”

“Hold on!” Zeke roared, “There’s still something that confuses me to this day. You and I are Pietro’s disciples, so why do you want to assassinate me?”

Luna was taken aback, “You knew?”

Zeke nodded.

Luna continued, “Since you’re about to die, I might as well tell you. If it weren’t for you, we would have become the Great Marshal. You stole everything from us. Is it too much if we want you dead?”

Realization dawned on Zeke, “I see. What’s the surname of Pietro, and who is he? A year ago, why did he disappear? Do you have anything to do with his disappearance?”

Luna responded in annoyance, “You’re such a nuisance. Don’t worry. I’ll tell you everything when I visit you at your grave.”

“I’ll send you to hell myself today, and I want that old man to know he made a mistake by choosing you over us. Let’s fight!”

Zeke said, “Alright then. But before you make your move, you better show me your most powerful stance of Seven Stars of the Tiger first. You won’t be able to defeat me if you decide to go with other techniques.”

Once again, Luna was stunned, “Damn it. You know about the Seven Stars of the Tiger too.”

“Not only do I know about it, but I know it like the back of my hand,” Zeke said.

Luna exclaimed, “Impossible! Pietro once told us that he had imparted each of four stances of Seven Stars of the Tiger to each of one of us, and he said he would never teach anyone else, including you. Did the old man lie to us? What did he teach you?”
