The two group followed Ryker, as he head straight to the Birak Forest. As they followed the same person, naturally, they met one another, and the normal thing of meeting any party not related to them, showing their weapons.
After all, in any places that is not a city, if you are killed, without any special method, there is no way to know of the killers unless there is someone that manage to see it and survive, as the winner would make sure there is no witness in case the person he killed is an important member of a powerful faction.
However, as they have the insignia of the princes coalition, they quickly recognized one another.
"You are part of the Lugh Family," Call pointed out.
"And you are members of the Second Prince factions," the leading members of the Lugh Family told them.
"Are you hunting this man too?" Call showed an image of Ryker beating up someone at the Noble realm, not like they would have known as it is a hidden member of a Noble Family supporting the third prince.
"Yes, are you hunting the man too?" the Lugh Family's man exclaimed in shock. After all, the lineup prepared to beat a single Genesis Sea expert is just too much.
On the other hand, Call thought they did not have enough men. "Your men are not strong enough," he said bluntly.
Hearing this, the men wanted to glare but against a Half-Noble expert, who would dare to do so.
"What do you mean by that?" they are just hunting a measly Genesis Sea. Sure, even among Noble Family they are treated like treasures, only send it to fight the important battle.
After all, even for the biggest Duke Family, they would only have Noble expert in the single digit, 9 being the most of what they would have. So, most of the important battle would be determined by Genesis Sea experts.
This meant most Genesis Sea experts of the Family will be sufficiently powerful. Against a mere 3rd Stage Genesis Sea, how could the other party stand their might.
"Do you see the beaten up person?" realizing his words did not have any effect, he immediately used the most damning footage they have.
Not knowing why the other party asked such thing, they nodded, hoping it will not take too long.
"The one who beat the person up is the boy, but the person that get beaten up, he is someone at the Noble realm, and not just Half-Noble, a bonafide Noble," hearing Call said such outrageous thing, the other man have the same expression as Candy did before.
"Why would you use such outrageous lie?" the other side asked. Call shook his head. If the other party is looking for death, why would he bother saving them when they disregard such attempt.
"Don't say I blame you?" he might be strong, but against a prodigy like Ryker, he would be folded and tied up depending on his whim.

"He stop," even if they are some agreement, they still after the same target, so they began to vie after one another. After all, in their eyes, someone like him will not be much of a challenge.
Only those at who knew and seen him using his strength knew the Lugh Family would be beaten up to the pulp first. Considering they are asking for it, heading with the weakest group, death is all but certain.
As the Lugh Family members began to do their ambush, the princes faction starting to feel anxious, like there would be some kind of trouble they would be facing.
When the wonder why they felt something like that, a powerful worm at the Noble realm appear in front of them. The four Noble experts began to make their move, though they felt themselves sweating.
After all, they are the weakest Noble in their factions, the reason they are allowed to roam the place. After all, with their strength, they would not pose much trouble to the other forces with Noble expert in them.
So, they don't think they would stand much of a chance against the worms, at least without any casualties.
If the Noble expert already sweating, less need to be said of the weaker cultivators. Some even soiled their pants, the terror emitted by the beast too much for them.
Realizing how much in danger they are, they plan to make a run for it, but before they could do so, the worm began to flee the other direction, seemingly afraid from something.
Soon, that something came into view, hurling curses at the worm while throwing spear of lighting to the worm. While he move fast for mortal, it is enough for them to compare his face with other face.
Which cause the Lugh Family members to shiver at the prospect of fighting the man. He already chased after the worm, one that could bring terror to them all. For him to be able to chase such terrifying monster, there is no need to speak of their chance. After all, it is something non-existent.
As for the members of the princes' faction, while they still terrified by the aura, it is consumed by greed at the moment.
"Chase after him! He should possess powerful techniques and many other inheritance!" Call yelled. The 4 noble experts flew, though they maintained a safe distance, less they turned to dead.
As they chase after him, the more shock they are. After all, he keep on beating the worm. Even as the beast tried to fight back, another attack stop it before it was attacked again, preventing it from forming up.
The worm let out a powerful screech, causing some of the weaker members to feel a painful headache before falling elsewhere. This stopped the Noble experts as they are forced to protect the young master, and would receive severe repurcassion in the event of failing to do so.
As they focused on saving the weaker members, Ryker appeared and began to beat up the worm. The powerful worm that would be impossible for four of them to beat have now find itself in a restraint, preventing it from moving.
As the beast is restrained, Ryker remained calm as he launched one final attack, killing the worm in a single blow. This cause everyone else to feel goosebumps.
'Young Master! You want us to fight that!? We will die first if we took such path!" while the servants began to have second thought, some of them began to pretend to be someone else. After all, they didn't want earn the ire of the monsters that can beat the strongest group at the moment.
