The dust continued to cover the ground that Mezal stood.

Faye turned to Demerus.

"Look, sister! Even when Master Kyros learned of the strength of the giant, he did not show fearful reactions!"

The dust continued to hinder the sight of the humans. But the Steele knights and servants looked worried. The attack was unlike anything they had seen.

"Relax, everyone. Grandpa has had a curse that makes his stats show inaccurate numbers during his tests, correct?"

"He has?" Diana was amazed. Even she didn't know of this.

Aron and Branze remained quiet, which indicated they knew.

"Anyway, I can reveal his true stats through the Temple. Show stats." Kyros ordered.

Lights appeared at the top of the Temple. The champions flew lower so that they could read it as they were too close to it.

Demerus was shocked at the numbers that were displayed. The numbers that he saw were practically impossible to find among Champions of his level. Those stats could rival Commanders if Mezal increased his level! Of course, Mezal hadn't reached level 40 and already had such stats. What was horrifying was his Intelligence. Even among the siblings, the smartest, Faye and himself, only had 395 and 398, respectively.

"Oh? What an improvement. So that's how strong Grandfather has become. He used to have a vitality that was somewhere between 150 and 160?" Kyros recalled the stats his grandfather had when he punched him before he journeyed to Airom.

"What's... going on? How did father get so strong?" Diana asked Branze.

"True Cut. He had been the boundaries of his max level at 30. He just needed a Class to reach the next stages. The God Hyperion probably knew. He severed the limit. When we were severed, we also gained a qualitative leap in our strength. Ever since then, father must have been meditating. And among us, father excels in that. He was always in chains and would cultivate in that situation. Me and Aron need to fight or train in it. But father grew up being forced to train that way."

The dust was suddenly kicked back as another force energy erupted and blew the dust-up.

Mezal was standing in the ground, which had sunk by several meters.

The shield he held revealed no dent or damage.

"My Grandson's punch hurt me more." Mezal chuckled.

The giant grew angry and harnessed the Force once more, and began to attack again.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

A battle began as Mezal challenged the giant. It wasn't just blocking. Mezal had already gauged the power of the giant and was confident in crossing blows with it.

BOOM! BOOM!

Unknown to everyone Mezal and the Giant had been fighting all the while when the dust still covered them. The giant kept pushing his club to crush Mezal and exerted Dark force to try and corrupt Mezal as Entropy Element began to leak out.

Mezal used his ability to fight back and harnessed the Earth's energy to resist. The two were in a deadlock when suddenly Mezal's Earth element evolved. And with a strong push, he repelled the energy.

And now that the two were fighting, the fluctuations became clear that the Champions noticed the elements that were now being used.

Calaminus was amazed at Mezal's ability.

"Entropy and Steel. The two rival elements. Was the giant using this for a start? How can Mezal wield both Earth and Metal? Is it the weapons?" Demerus witnessed how Mezal repelled the attack.

"No." Kyros rejected this.

"His weapons have some interesting ability, but it's not that. He has an Earth Core. But what you are seeing is his own ingeniousness." Kyros smiled. It wasn't just the Champions that were amazed. Even Kyros was.

"Amazing! That Mezal must have it bad in your previous life! This is his true capabilities! To think that you never saw or heard of him in your memories. He would make a marvelous mage! That Library will surely cause your grandfather to soar in the heavens!" Calaminus marveled. 

"Indeed. It should be his first time holding on to Earth. But Steel is his Elemental affinity, after all. I guess it just felt natural to him!"

"All those years of cultivating and trying to turn Force into an Element laid the foundation for this. Your father is, of course, the key in this. To think he managed to turn elemental magic of the Earth Core into Steel!"

The scene of Mezal fighting and exchanging blows with the giants caused every Steele family to erupt in cheers.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Mezal's heroic figure did not retreat from the attacks of the Giant, and Mezal was slowly moving on the offensive.

A green light began to appear in the core of the Dark Giant.

"How disgusting. Was that Fate? Or is it Destiny? That giant has an Entropy core!" Aron laughed.

"More food for Mardock. The stronger he becomes, the more relaxed I can be." Martha smiled.

"That Mardock did well. His past arrogance nearly killed us, though." Aron recalled the battle.

Mardock was nearby and heard the two but remained quiet.

"He nearly killed us, but he saved you. I guess I can forgive him for doing that. "

BOOM! BOOM!

Mezal began to make his moves as he smashed the club sideways with his shield and charged forward.

The giant took a few steps back and took a deep breath, and then roared.

"ROAR!"

A green blast erupted from the mouth of the giant, forcing Mezal to raise his shield.

"A Breath attack, huh?" Mezal harnessed his Force and activated [Wall].

A large metal shield appeared over him and defended him from the attack.

The Champions was now more amazed than ever. They have had some subjugation missions. And the five of them faced several monsters. But the deadliest of them were races species with Breath attacks. The innate magic of these beasts was so powerful that it threatened them, and at least two of them had to defend a breath attack to escape injury.

BOOM!

Mezal defended against the attack.

The Breath attack had Entropy, but Mezal's Steel element resisted it.

"He resisted it! A breath attack of a Champion Giant!" Demerus was amazed.

"He's single, right? I mean, your grandmother's dead, right?" Ressi asked Kyros immediately.

"You...!" Kyros erupted at the very insensitive question.

Kyros was having a headache as he could see Ressi's mad expression. And Triona also had a dreamy look on her face.

"What's with that dreamy look!?" Kyros asked.

Stellya chuckled as she saw the odd actions of her sisters.

"Sisters! Calm yourself!" Faye angrily chastised.

"It's good that Champion Faye still has common sense. The age gap between my Grandfather and Champion Triona is-"

"Exactly, Master Kyros! I am the eldest among us sisters! It should be me!" She declared passionately.

Kyros facepalmed.
