"W-What?"

The rebel leader muttered in disbelief. He had not expected that the boy had already attained level 1. After all, it wasn't a common occurrence. It was rare to find a person who achieved such a feat at such a young age.

'Could it be that he was born so talented with such high growth potential?'

This could only be the reason that the rebel leader could come up.

'Fufu. In that case, he must be training passionately to attain his first level at such a young age. Well, it's truly commendable. Hehe,' he laughed inwardly.

'In regards to having high growth potential, one must take advantage of it while he is still young. Then, he would have a better start compared to his peers. In that case, a bright future awaits him.'

"Fufu."

The leader secretly laughed amusingly.

Still, it didn't explain how he survived without getting an injury from his companion's attack.

The wounded rebel directly lost consciousness when he crashed onto the Airboat. At this moment, none of them knew if he was still alive or dead.

Seeing his comrade in such a state, "Damn, you!" The rebel, who was holding a sword, cried out. Then, he summoned an aura on his sword. After that, he rushed forward to avenge him.

Jem reacted fast by aiming his palm at the charging rebel.

"Wait!"

A sudden shout froze both of them on the spot. 

They glanced at the origin of that voice. It was coming from the rebel leader.

"Boss?" While frowning, he asked their leader who suddenly shouted. He was about to take his revenge for his comrade. 

The rebel leader did not respond. His attention was on Jem. 

"Boy, do you want to join us? We can give you all the resources you need to advance to your next level a lot faster."

"If you come with us, I might let go of those people behind you."

Although those two girls were also a good catch, the boy in front of them was just too tempting. Well, he could also find a way to persuade those two girls later on to join them. Looking at how they were together in a carriage, they must be close to each other. The rebel leader thought so while grinning deep inside.

After hearing it, "CEH!" The rebel with a sword in his hands clicked his tongue. He wanted to avenge his comrade, but he could not go against the leader's decision.

Out of a sudden,

Bam!

"GAH!"

"!?"

"Eh?"

"WTF!"

An explosion happened that stunned them. It was followed by a pained cry.

Jem shot [Light Wave] to the rebel who was holding a shortsword without a warning.

The person was unceremoniously sent rolling away. It stopped a few meters away from his previous position. Then it was twitching without the pupils in his eyes.

It stopped moving a few seconds later.

The rebel leader and his other men looked at it with wide eyes and agape. A moment later, "Kiiiiid…" a cold eerie voice resounded at that instance. It wasn't a shout, but that voice sent shivers to Hope and the others. Just hearing it alone, they could feel the anger from it. They shuddered.

"Leader! Let us beat him!" The rebel known as Mags jumped off from the Airboat along with one other. They could not just watch any longer. Two of their comrades were already taken down.

"No!"

But their leader's response stopped them on their feet.

"Let me teach this kid what being insolent will bring him!" He said it while crossing his fingers against each other. Cracking noises could be heard from it. 

"Leader, you might kill him if you do that!" Mags said with a frown.

"So be it. He's asking for it, you see," replied the rebel leader.

An ominous aura was exuding from his body.

Hope and Sister Ann subconsciously hug Meir, who was in the middle of the two.

"Y-you two….. go escape w-while you still have a chance."

Sister Ann muttered in a stuttering voice. But Hope and Meir were so afraid to react.

The ominous nauseating aura the rebel leader was exuding brought unfathomable fear to them. It was on another level than the level 1 rebel a while ago.

"What… two?" Hope muttered upon seeing the two magic ring arrays on the rebel leader's wrist. 

'Level 2! He's level 2!' Her mind was screaming in fear.

At this moment, they noticed the bandit leader's body slowly expanding.

While it was happening, the rebel leader started saying, "When ascenders reached level 1, they gained a boost on their physical and magical power…"

Jem wondered if he was talking about ex-human. For some reason, these people were calling them ascenders the whole time.

The rebel leader continued saying, "however, ascenders gained an indomitable body when they reached level 2."

After saying it, his size has already doubled his original size.

In the blink of an eye, *Swoosh~* the rebel leader's figure suddenly disappeared from his position and appeared right in front of him.

His whole figure towered on Jem, blocking the sun above. Then, his glaring eyes were looking down at him, like looking at a puny insect.

"What do you think, kid? Do you want to come with us? Or would you rather choose to die here? Though, if you die here, we will take with us those two girls behind you and kill the rest." His voice was thunderous and threatening.

Mags only hope their leader would not end up killing him. 

Hope and the others were already quivering at this moment. They have yet to regain their strengths, so no matter what they do, it was useless. 

They wondered what the boy in front of them, who was receiving such an ominous aura at a close range, felt at this very moment.

As though giving response to their question in their minds, they heard him whisper, [Light Wave].

Bam!

"!!"

"Eh?"

Smoke rose after the explosion. They noticed the massive figure in front of him skidded a few inches away to his back.

However, "HAHAHA!" They heard a guffaw.

"It's useless, boy!"

"This body is more than you can destroy!" Said the rebel leader.

[Light Wave]

Bam!

[Light Wave]

Bam!

Without caring about his enemy's taunt, he continued shooting.

Mags shook his head. It was useless. The disparity of level 1 and level 2 was not that anyone could be treated so lightly. There's also the disparity of experience.
