The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 138 Welcome Ceremony (Bonus Chapter Today)

Wes could sense the magical fluctuations emanating from Bruno Sturgeon.

Its power is second only to Hades, and even Ultear cannot compare to it.

At the same time, Bruno also sensed the surging magical power within Wes, and he looked at Wes with great interest.

[He's a formidable opponent.]

Bruno took a keen interest in Weiss, a potential challenger who excited him.

"Can it fly?"

"Why don't you give it a try and see?"

Weiss's answer revealed his confidence.

Although he himself was not the kind of person who actively sought conflict, he was well aware that the powerful figures present were happy to test the strength of newcomers in this way.

Then let them know I'm not someone to be trifled with.

Wes decided to make it clear to everyone present that he was not someone to be easily provoked.

"It's not easy to have a new person join us, there's no need to be so serious."

As the most talkative of the "Seven Kin of Hell," Lastiros spoke up at this moment, intending to lighten the mood.

Neither Wes nor Brunot paid him any attention, which made Lestiros feel a little embarrassed, after all, his personality was always self-centered and unpredictable.

This kind of person is chatting and laughing with you one second, but might stab you in the back the next.

Just as Lastiros was about to teach Wes a lesson, Azuma stopped him.

"The other party is a mage with a record of fighting against the Ten Wizard Saints."

She said this to make Lastiros realize that the newcomer before him was no ordinary person.

"You mean I'm no match for him?"

At this point, Lastiros pointed at Wes with some excitement.

"I'm just stating the facts."

Azuma crossed her arms, appearing indifferent.

"I've been fed up with you for a long time, you sanctimonious bastard."

Rastiros' exaggerated expression made it seem as if he was about to attack Azuma at any moment.

The other members of the "Seven Kin of Purgatory" present chose to ignore this situation. They were already used to this kind of dispute, which would break out every few days.

As long as Hades is around, the real battle will never happen.

Just as the atmosphere reached its peak, a heavy thud broke the deadlock.

"Thump!!"

That was the sound of Hades' scepter striking the ground; the dull echo drew everyone's attention back to the leader.

"Wes, you're new to the guild, and people don't know you yet."

Hades was reminding Wes that, as a newcomer, he needed to demonstrate his strength and value to gain the recognition of the other guild members.

Wes understood Hades' meaning, and he shared the same thought.

Lastiros immediately stepped forward and volunteered, "President, let me 'host' this newcomer. I'll make him feel at home."

He couldn't wait to have a "friendly" conversation with Wes.

"He's very strong, and I want to fight him."

The reason is simple and direct: fighting against strong opponents excites her.

When Azuma expressed his desire to fight Wes, Lustiros looked as if he had swallowed a fly.

"Tch," he said, making no attempt to hide his inner mockery.

The other members of the "Seven Kin of Purgatory" also showed great interest in Wes, wanting to test the newcomer's strength.

Just as the two were arguing fiercely, Bruno stepped forward.

At that moment, everyone fell silent.

"Leave it to me."

After Bruno spoke, no one present was willing to compete with him for the opportunity.

To avoid unnecessary damage from fighting on the airship, the two decided to duel outside.

The news spread quickly throughout the entire guild.

Everyone was curious about what made this newcomer, who dared to challenge the vice president so soon after joining the guild, so special.

Guild members poured out and gathered at the viewing area, their eyes filled with anticipation and excitement.

All seven of their relatives were present, and their figures stood out in the crowd.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wes and Bruno stood facing each other silently, a few meters apart.

Brunot's voice broke the silence: "I can sense that you are very strong." He rotated his wrist, preparing for the upcoming battle: "I won't be careless; I will go all out from the start."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Then, Brunot unleashed all his magic power, which surged forth, and the surrounding air seemed to tremble under its pressure.

Wes was not to be outdone; his magic was equally powerful, colliding with Brunot's power in mid-air, but without immediately erupting into a fierce conflict.

"Is this all the magic you have?" Wes had absolute confidence in his abilities.

The magic of the two intertwined in the air, forming visible ripples.

Everyone present was awestruck by this level of competition.

"What terrifying magic!"

"He's actually on par with the vice president!"

There was a flurry of discussion among the crowd, but most of it was praise for Wes's abilities.

The Seven Kin of Families wore solemn expressions; Wes's profound magical power was beyond their reach.

Hades's single eye rested on Wes. "His magic has increased since we last met, and there's even some magic within him that hasn't been unleashed yet."

Hades realized that there was still a huge amount of untapped energy hidden within Wes.

In this battle of magic, Bruno is clearly at a disadvantage.

Bruno was not discouraged by this; on the contrary, his fighting spirit grew stronger as the challenges intensified.

In his view, the strength of magic is only one part of the battle; the real key to victory lies in the ability to control magic, mindset, and combat skills.

"Gravity Suppression!"

At Bruno's command, the surrounding air was gripped by an invisible hand, and gravity increased dramatically in an instant.

Many of the mages from the Demon Heart Guild who were watching the battle were caught off guard and were forced to the ground by the sudden gravity, unable to move.

"This is not a battle you can stand by and watch. All of you, step back," Azuma commanded in a deep voice.

In fact, before he could even utter his warning, the mages had already realized the seriousness of the situation, hurriedly helped up their immobile companions, and quickly evacuated the scene.

Wes personally experienced the immense power of Brunot's magic.

His magic was clearly more potent than my gravity spell.

Wes is not only capable of casting the Gravity Spell, but also proficient in its counter-spell.

He was almost unaffected by Bruno's gravitational pressure.

"You also know gravity magic?"

Bruno realized that Wes wasn't relying on brute force, but rather had cleverly neutralized his magic.

"I've only mastered one gravity spell; I'm not as good as you at applying gravity."
