Aora continued backing away, step by step. Though his pride wouldn’t let him admit it, his body betrayed his fear. “You’re not fooling me, old man! That’s just a prop! I don’t believe it’s real, and I definitely don’t believe you’d actually blow yourself up!”

“Really? Why are you still backing away?” Terence smirked, taunting him further. “While I hadn’t run into you when you lot tried to massacre my family, I know you were involved. Killing you today would be the least I could do for Alessandra!”

With a wistful sigh, he took a step forward, terrifying Aora into staggering three steps back.

At the back, the Wolf Warrior Unit, led by Eve, witnessed this spectacle with absolute shock.

This was a world–class event–the number–one fighter under Teddy Tanner, a man who had walked through storms of bullets without blinking, was actually retreating in fear–from an old man!

Azure clenched his jaw, deeply shaken. He knew that his leader wasn’t actually afraid of the bombs–it was the look in Terence’s eyes.

Because when a man no longer feared death, even the gods had to tread carefully.

“Hmph, you’ve got balls, I’ll give you that, old man. But I’m done with you now. We’re leaving!” With a wave of his hand, Aora leaped away in retreat, Azure following right behind.

Only then did Eve and the Wolf Warriors charge forward, securing the area.

Frederick let out a long exhale, finally daring to speak. “Old Mr. Quillen, how could you pull a stunt like that? If Ms. Quillen or Emmanuel finds out, they’ll be furious and worried sick!”

“Haha, I’m just messing with them. These are all fake!” said Terence, casually pulling his coat back around himself and chuckling mischievously like a child caught playing pranks.

But whether or not the explosives were real–only he knew.

Regardless, their objective had been achieved. Tanner’s lackeys had been delayed long enough. Even if they tried to redirect their forces to go after the Nuthana representatives now, it would be far too late.
