Benjamin replied this time.“To study the enemies, of course, both inside and out.”That revelation unveiled a realization in the minds of both Christ and Anna. They gazed at each other, immediately communicating telepathically.[They were in our heads?][Impossible! If they truly were in our minds, there's no way we wouldn't have detected them.]Anna is a psychic, after all. A very powerful psychic at that. And after siphoning a percentage of April’s powers, she felt even stronger. So there's no way she wouldn't be able to detect a foreign presence in her mental scape….or so she thought.At that moment, April’s voice intruded on the conversation that Christ and Anna were having telepathically.[Are you kidding me right now? You've had decades of experience as a psychic before me. I awakened my powers just last year, and even I can tell that every consciousness in a mindscape leaves energetic trails, an undeniable footprint that couldn't be erased as long as there's existence itself.

Down at the bottom of the throne, April was caught off guard by the sudden psychic attack, despite having her guards up against the older woman. She felt her consciousness shake immensely, which was then followed by an incredible headache that made her feel like her brain was about to explode.Therefore, April immediately let out a scream, but quickly stormed to face up to the older woman with a glare. There was no need to raise her hand as she psychologically fought back against the mental attack. It was like wrapping up a bag of ants and throwing it away.As April stood to face Anna, she calmed herself and redirected the mental attack back at the older woman.To the side, Benjamin had heard his girlfriend's scream and was, of course, worried.“Angel, are you….”Benjamin was distracted, and Don Christ Stoop didn't waste this chance to rush straight at him with incredible speed, bashing his fist straight into the younger man's chest. The sound was like a huge metallic tower falling t

April was doing all of this on purpose. She had actually held a devastating advantage over Lady Anna Ray all along, and could have killed her from the start before the older woman even realized what was going on. But she didn't.And now, she's even holding onto just half of her weapons, as if she wanted both sides to have their scales balanced before they clashed again.“You…Are you fucking treating me with pity?! You could have taken me out from the start, but you didn't. You clearly had me under an illusory compulsion, and yet, you only showed your hands in the end. And now, you're allowing me to control half of my swords. Are you making fun of me?!”Understandably, Lady Anna’s ego was bruised deeply at this point, and she was about to lose her mind. She has always seen herself as the woman on top, a psychic no other psychic could rival, and yet, reality was unfolding before her a cruel joke.She was deeply infuriated that the supposedly inexperienced psychic was making a mockery o

As the surroundings grew cold rapidly, the thugs, shooting relentlessly from Benjamin's two-layered circle formation, circled their attacks with caution due to the unfolding events.Before they could even blink, a group of unknown objects shot through the air, as fast as bullets. Before these thugs could even think to run, these fast traveling white objects in the air shot right through their torsos, and within the next second, a large transparent ice grew from one side of their body right through the other side, covered in blood, their blood.The white, flashy object shot through the air turned out to be spears of ice, which pierced right through these thugs from one side of their mortal bodies to the other. That wasn't all.Once these ice spears were lodged into the bodies of these thugs, they then expanded in size, freezing the rest of the victims' bodies.This is what Benjamin saw from his point of view. The thugs were suddenly letting out guttural screams of agony as these ice

Benjamin was being shot at with countless ice shards at incredibly high pressure. There's also the fact that each ice shard was incredibly tough making the attack much more lethal. If it were any ordinary human being who had received that attack from Don Christ Stoop, they would have been ground into meat chunks within seconds. But not only is Benjamin's body practically impervious with his almost instantaneous healing capabilities, thanks to his monstrous cell regenerative ability, he was also wearing nanotech armor, which parried most of the pressure from Don Christ Stoop's Ice blast attack.Therefore, although Benjamin was pinned against the wall of the mansion, he wasn't hurt. So instead, he decided to show his own power as well. He opened up his energy reserve and summoned his flames with sheer will. With his reserved energy opened, another layer of aura flowed out of him, causing the environment to immediately warm up. He could feel the pressure from the continuous ice attack d
