Ruler's Awakening: Inheritor of the SSS-Rank Dimensional Talent-Chapter 171: Mysterious Sky Sword Girl
Purple magic emanated from Arthur’s body and burned away the red laser released by the man. The man from the Night Liberators gang was shocked, Arthur didn’t do anything but he was able to stop his magic attack.
WOSH!
A gust of wind appeared and blew away everything, but it did not damage the walls and goods in the shop.
The attention of many people was riveted on the two warring parties, Arthur and the Night Liberators’ group of retribution collectors.
"Look! Someone dares to challenge them," another adventurer replied.
"How foolish. The strength of that group of collectors is quite strong, I’m afraid that guy won’t be able to handle it alone."
Arthur and Karen had heard their words. They said that the group before Arthur was a group of retribution collectors, the most feared people along this road.
Not only did they have the authority to control this place, but they also had the ability to fight well.
Even if they were defeated, the captain of the Night Liberators’ territorial guard squad would intervene directly.
According to information spread in the community, the territory guard squad’s mage level was Senior Sage or at the peak of tier three.
’Senior Sage? That’s no match for me,’ Arthur said.
The man at the head of the retribution group realized Arthur’s ability was far stronger than anyone he had ever fought.
He glanced right and left, asked four of his members to form a talent and release it to kill Arthur.
Karen held the sleeve of Arthur’s black and purple suit. Arthur looked over, Karen’s face showing concern. This is not the 10th floor city, but Lilith City.
The people in this place were much stronger than the enemies Arthur had fought in the 10th city, Karen was worried that at any time the supreme leader of the Night Liberators would come and engage in a devastating battle with Arthur.
The five people before Arthur unleashed their talents to the front, ranging from red laser-shaped talents, golden lightning, flying blue swords, powerful water waves, to sharp tree trunks.
"What are we going to do?" asked Karen.
"Nothing. Their attacks will have no effect on me," Arthur replied.
The man again pointed his right hand forward, opening his palm wide and forming a powerful wall of purple magic, emanating from Arthur’s elemental base.
Five attack talents collided in energy with the purple wall, creating a powerful blast and a constant boom of magic.

People fled the streets, merchants abandoning their goods in favor of escaping death. Arthur was not distressed by them, a weak force should not challenge a stronger one.
"Enough!" Arthur shouted.
He clenched his fist and exploded a wall of purple magic, a chain effect of purple flames spread from the five talent attacks directed at their host.
Three of the five were affected by the blast and the purple flames, he bounced away from the spot with a fatal wound that nearly took his life.
"You! What have you done, you son of a bitch!" snapped the leader of the retribution group.
"You threatened me, I responded back and injured your friend. Why should you blame me?" asked Arthur, coldly.

"You left him dying, damn it!" he snapped.
Arthur grinned widely. He strode coldly down the pavingblock street of the city, Karen still standing where she was.
Every footstep Arthur took, always impacted the strong fluctuating power of the magic beneath his feet, like a wave of water on the sea surface.
He again summoned power from the purple magic in his right hand, surprising the leader of the retribution group as he had already lost quite a lot of MP, finding it difficult to block Arthur’s immense power.
"W-What... are you going to do?" asked the group leader.
"If he’s in pain from suffering, I’ll help remove it!" said Arthur.
"Stop!"
Arthur stopped his steps and looked up into the sky, seeing a man standing tall on the back of a black eagle beast servant. He did not come alone, but with a woman at his side.
"Let him go, then we won’t look for trouble with you," said the man, the captain of the territorial guard squad.
Arthur sighed and agreed to the man’s request. He deactivated his purple magic and stepped away back near Karen.
The man on the eagle told the retribution collection group to return to the base and recover, he flew low near Arthur.
"Your strength is truly amazing. Are you interested in joining our group?" the man asked, Arthur remained silent and did not respond.
"You will have a lot to gain from joining the Night Liberators. I can—"
"Will you shut up? I’m not interested in your group!" interrupted Arthur, glaring at the man intimidatingly.
Getting a rejection, the man no longer pursued Arthur and Karen. Still, he sensed that Arthur’s magic fluctuations were very strong, especially when he emitted his purple magic.
Not wanting to lose track of him, the man ordered the woman beside him to fly after Arthur from afar. The woman nodded in agreement.
"If he enters another group’s territory, return immediately. We don’t want to stir up hostilities with them," the man replied, the woman nodding in full understanding.
Arthur and Karen walked back to the city center. After asking a few people, they said the equipment and item districts were available elsewhere, other than the Night Liberators’ territory district.
That was quite confusing to Arthur. The man he asked mentioned that the city’s three districts were divided into three major groups, and Arthur and Karen had just left the Night Liberators’ district.
That made everything make sense, from the retribution, the use of force in the center of the city, to the members guarding the place. Arthur was relieved to be rid of them.
"The safe option is to visit the Sky Sword or Dimension Justice territory districts. It’s in that direction and that way," the man replied, pointing to the north and west.
Arthur agreed, a city as big as Lilith City seemed to need a map to explore it. Perhaps Arthur could get a map of the city after arriving at the equipment and item area in the Sky Sword region district.
Sure enough, upon entering the district, they were treated with buildings painted a mix of white and blue, the proud colors of Sky Sword.
Something like this had not happened before in the 10th city, there must be a special reason for the division of regions to happen.
They finally arrived at the equipment and item area. Originally, Arthur had expected the number of visitors to be the same as when he was in the Night Liberators region district, but he was wrong.
The number of visitors was much higher than before. The merchants could sell with peace of mind in healthy competition, the rent for the place was the same, but Sky Sword explained the scheme well.
The rent included store repairs caused by non-human faults, such as disasters, wind, or damage caused by Sky Sword group members.
Not only that, the rent was also for improving the public facilities in the district, such as drinking water sinks, street lights, seats on the sidewalk, and anything else that could provide comfort to visitors to the city.
"Please pull over, don’t let them get me," shouted a 12-year-old girl running through the crowd, wearing her Night Liberators uniform.
Behind her, three men were chasing the girl with their armor on. The girl managed to escape the three men’s eyes, she was standing right before Arthur.
Arthur and the girl looked at each other for a moment, the girl’s eyes suddenly lit up blue like the color of the sea, surprising Arthur.
Soon, the girl’s eyes widened with her mouth gaping, her hands covering her mouth in shock.
"A-A Venerable Sage?" the girl asked.
’Wait! How did she know?’
Soon, the three men chasing the girl arrived and managed to catch her. The girl was caught without any resistance, letting the three Sky Sword members take her back to the branch HQ.
"May we meet again, Venerable Sage!" called the girl, waving.
’Damn it! How did that damn girl know my mage tier?’
