Chapter 23 Edward: I'm Going to Humiliate Jason!
The chewing sound is very clear.
Not even the sound of flames can be concealed.
John and Brian heard.
Edward, who was closer, naturally heard it.
Even Edward had a deeper feeling.
He could clearly feel that his cane was leaving him.
Immediately, Edward stopped the flames and looked anxiously.
He definitely doesn't want any problems with his cane. He must know that this cane is a high-level item that can only be used through a 'ceremony'. Even the former Edward, exhausted his family property and found a total of three pieces.
Therefore, when he saw clearly that Jason, who was completely black, was chewing with a cane that should have been inserted into his chest in one hand, the face of the once uncrowned king of Cherry City immediately changed.
He raised his hand and pointed at Jason.
He hoped to bind Jason with the power he gained through the 'Ritual'.
But, it didn't work at all.
Compared to the power of the 'cane', the power obtained by this 'ceremony' is too childish for Jason.
On the contrary, Edward's actions also caught Jason's attention.
Burned by the flames, Jason, who was completely black, directly stuffed the remaining cane into his mouth. After chewing for a few times, he spat out the scum of the cane.
Then he grinned at Edward.
The corners of Jason's mouth cracked straight to the base of his ears, and his pale teeth gleamed coldly under the street lamp.
"Roasted sugar cane, delicious."
Jason spoke in a low voice.
Edward was startled.
He didn't expect Jason to say such words.
In other words, he never thought that his 'cane' could be eaten.
You must know that his 'cane' is extremely sturdy,
And not afraid of flames and freezing, not only can be used as a 'sword', but also can bind opponents.
But now it was eaten by Jason? !
The unbelievable Edward looked at Jason, who was completely dark, and his mask was half lifted because of chewing, and his mouth was split open at himself.
This is his body's instinct, not his will.
It's like walking in the wilderness, and suddenly encountering a wolf that relieves hunger... No, not a wolf.
It's a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
A hungry Tyrannosaurus rex!
Edward stared at Jason, stunned in surprise.
Jason didn't.
call!
The next moment, Jason, who launched [Charge], rushed towards Edward like an arrow from the string.
The speed was so fast that Edward didn't react at all.
Cold light flashes!
Edward felt a pain in his right hand.
It was only when he returned to God that he realized that his right hand was gone.
It was chopped down by the wide-bladed machete.
The palm was held by Jason.
"what!"
Edward couldn't help but let out a pained cry.
Jason pulled off the ruby ring and threw Edward's severed hand away in disgust.
Then, flames flashed in Jason's hand.
High temperature disinfection is always right.
Then, he threw the ring directly into his mouth.
Crunch, crunch.
The familiar chewing sound rang out again.
Unlike the roasted sugar cane flavor of the previous cane, this fire gem ring is a little... spicy.
However, it is quite delicious.
It was like a tiger skin egg dipped in chili oil.
The outer belt is silky and crisp, but the protein inside is very Q-elastic, and when the egg yolk is bitten, a soft taste makes Jason's eyes light up.
But what surprised Jason the most was that the caramel flavor of the roasted sugar cane that had not yet dissipated in his mouth was actually mixed with this spicy flavor, turning it into a very special sweet and spicy taste.

"tasty!"
Jason couldn't help but comment again.
He was completely worthy of the fact that he had just died three times in a row under the flames.
Do not!
is more than enough!
If you die three times, you can taste this delicious food again. Jason is really willing to do it again. If there is a deadline for such a 'death', he hopes it will be 10,000 times.
Delicious stimulates Jason's brain.
Let his eyes involuntarily look at Edward, who was slowly retreating while holding his wrist.
The other party still smells of 'food'!
Without the cover of 'ceremony', Jason's nose plays its due role!
In addition to the cane and ruby ring, the other party also has 'food'!
Moreover, it is more fragrant 'food' than walking sticks and ruby rings!
"Don't come here!"
"stop!"
"I……"
Before Edward's words were finished, Jason slashed his neck with a knife.
There was a unique feeling of cutting flesh on the blade, but Edward did not die.
He just stumbled and fell to the ground.
And this "death" made Edward completely calm down.
Looking at Jason with surprise in his eyes, Edward sneered.
"Do you think you can kill me?"
"I am the king!"
"The Country of Cherry City..."
Edward still didn't finish his words, and Jason shot again. He grabbed Edward's ankle, used him as a sandbag, and threw it up and smashed it on the ground.
boom!
In the heavy voice, Edward was slammed to the ground by Jason's huge strength.
Immediately, cracks appeared on the asphalt road, as well as blood on the beach.
However, Edward did not die.
Even if the other party bleeds a lot of blood and his head is flattened, the other party is still alive.
Jason turned around without hesitation and slammed Edward on the other side of his body again.
boom!
Perception, Edward is still alive.
Jason turned around again, grabbed Edward by the ankle and threw Edward back.
Bang bang bang!
In the next minute or so, Edward was thrown from left to right and smashed to the ground dozens of times.
Not only was the head smashed into mud, but the upper body had long since disappeared when Jason threw it out.
However, the moment Jason let go, Edward's legs stood up, and the flesh and blood scattered around quickly gathered.
In a breath, Edward returned to his original appearance, including his broken right hand.
Even the clothes are intact.
"Ah."
"Are you surprised?"
"Like you, I have left myself a lot of trump cards."
Edward chuckled.
"Although you were exposed to 'mysterious knowledge' earlier than me, my talent is even better, and I also have wealth far beyond your imagination. You must have been quite tormented when I got it, right? You Not only do you want to get it, but you also want me to take advantage of the power of a fisherman after completing all the layouts for you!"
"But what?"
"I still see through your plan!"
"You can never get it!"
The complacent Edward seemed to be proving his strength to Jason, and he reached out and took it into his arms.
The next moment, a book appeared on Edward's right finger.
The book is not big and the thickness is average, only the size of an ordinary person's palm, like a pocket book.
The cover of the book is dark yellow. Because Edward stood up the book and covered it with his fingers, Jason couldn't see anything else, but Jason could clearly smell the strong smell of 'food' on it.
Edward, on the other hand, turned the pages lightly.
This is his trump card.
Among his three props, the most powerful one!
It is also the core of all his plans!
pity……
Failed.
However, as long as it is there, he will definitely make a comeback.
Edward believed so.
"Although I was laid out by you, this time I failed, but you also failed."
"We are tied!"
Edward, who was flipping through the pages, said so, but the once uncrowned king of Cherry City immediately shook his head.
"Do not."
"We are not tied!"
"I have it, and I still have room to turn around when faced with that incident."
"And you?"
"Nine dead!"
"So...it was me who won!"
Edward spoke arrogantly.
Especially when he saw that Jason's eyes were fixed on the book in his hand, the heat in his eyes showed.
Edward was even more proud.
Then, the former defending king of Cherry City, spread out his hand, still laying down on the palm of his hand with the book, and sent it forward like this.
"Want it?"
"Come and get it."
Edward stared at Jason maliciously.
Although he won, he also lost two advanced items.
If he just left like this, he was really unwilling.
So, he's going to humiliate Jason!
Although he couldn't kill Jason, it was still possible to humiliate his opponent!
Moreover, only by humiliating Jason fiercely can he erase his unwillingness and make him happy.
Facing the 'food' that was close at hand, Jason tried his best to restrain his 'appetite'. He stared at Edward and the book in the other's hands with scrutiny.
As an enemy, Edward would be so generous?
Naturally it is impossible.
Either humiliation or trap.
From the current situation, the former is bigger.
"A guy who thinks he has excellent talent, and relies on the power of the 'mysterious side' to easily accomplish some impossible things, he becomes arrogant, but he has no actual combat experience and is only slightly stronger than ordinary people. At the last moment, in order to save face and prove his victory, are you trying to make fun of me?"
Jason thought in his heart, and his eyes turned to the book in the other's palm.
At this moment, the book in the palm of the hand has the back cover rushing up, and the cover is buckled in the palm of the hand.
Just as Jason looked at the book in his palm, Edward turned the book over with great cooperation.
Cover punched up.
"Cross Street Stalker"!
When the title appeared, Jason was surprised.
But right away, Jason deduced that Edward used the 'imitation criminal' to reproduce and make up for the 'ritual' of "Cross Street Stalker", which turned out to be the 'core' of this book!
Take this book as the 'core'!
So this book... can create the world? !
With such speculation, Jason's breathing involuntarily quickened.
What would a 'food' that could create the world taste like?
How much satiety and excitement can you bring to yourself?
However, on the surface, Jason was calm and only showed his yearning for 'food'.
And this is too simple for Jason now.
He was attracted to 'food' himself.
Jason's expression really made Edward feel comfortable.
Edward seems to have completely forgotten that his 'ceremony' was interrupted, the loss of two high-level props and a lot of hard work were wasted, and now he wants to see the unrequited look in Jason's eyes.
"Is it painful?"
Edward asked with a smile.
Then, the defending king of Cherry City seemed to throw the book in his hand towards Jason just to be happier.
Jason didn't answer, but instead instinctively evaded sideways.
Snapped!
The book fell to the ground.
Jason slowly approached the book, and after confirming that there was no danger on it, he tentatively reached out and touched the book.
Then, the fingers passed through.
Obviously it is a physical book, but the fingers can't touch it at all.
Tried it several times in a row.
At this time, Edward really couldn't help it.
"Hahaha!"
Edward laughed out loud.
In that laughter, Edward's body leaned back and forth, obviously happy to the extreme.
Since Edward dared to throw out his most important props, he naturally had absolute certainty.
When he got this special item, Edward completed a 'ceremony' restraint with this item, and in the following days, for safety reasons, he performed several special 'ceremonies'.
Under these layers of ceremonies, this item has long since become the item that no one else can touch.
Similarly, let him call.
He didn't say anything, just following Edward's thoughts, the book that had just fallen to the ground just flew back into Edward's hands.
Jason witnessed the whole process firsthand.
He noticed the difference right away.
He could clearly see that there was always a link between the shadow of the book and Edward's shadow.
shadow?
Jason narrowed his eyes.
"How stupid!"
"You just found out?"
"This is the power of an extremely rare shadow."
Edward said proudly, and then, in a self-effacing tone, he continued:
"Of course, I didn't have such a special power, I just used the 'ceremony' and borrowed its own power - the power of the shadow!"
"I'm afraid you only know that it can build a new 'world' through rituals, but you don't know that the world thus constructed is the shadow world, right?"
"yes."
"How could you possibly know?"
"You are average in talent, is there a guy with more wealth?"
"Look at how you look now."
"It's really pitiful!"
With such words, Edward once again threw the 'book' in his hand towards Jason.
Snapped!
As before, Jason dodged sideways, and the 'book' fell to the ground.
Seeing Jason dodging, the corners of Edward's mouth turned up.
He was like watching a monkey play.
And when Jason cautiously approached the 'book' again and tentatively touched the 'book', the most joyful time of the monkey play came. Edward couldn't wait, and the corner of his upturned mouth was about to burst into a comfortable smile.
Jason's fingers rested on the surface of the cover.
Not a single point closer.
Then--
Yi!
