Neither Jeremy nor Ritchie had any interest in responding to Kean's provocative words.
Jeremy glanced at Ritchie from the corner of his eye, and Ritchie immediately understood Jeremy's intent. Without hesitation, Ritchie slipped into the shadows, disappearing from view.
Gripping the Longsword of the Undying with both hands, Jeremy charged directly at Kean.
"It seems you truly have no idea how powerful I have become! I am not fighting you alone."
Kean stood his ground, making no effort to dodge, confident that [the White Tower] behind him would provide the necessary support.
As Jeremy, wielding the Longsword of the Undying, reached Kean, a barrier composed of High-Dimensional Data materialized, blocking Jeremy's advance.
Seizing the moment while Jeremy was hindered, Kean launched an attack on the close-proximity Jeremy.
However, Jeremy had anticipated such a scenario all along.
Thus, their weapons merely clashed against each other.
