Bab 152: The Undercurrents

A red barrier appeared in front of Jacob, shielding him from the violent fluctuations of Jackson's aura. 

He glanced at the wall that got destroyed and cracks that started form to his red barrier. 

"Is this the strength of a person that one step in S-rank?" Jacob muttered.

After a few minutes, the aura disappeared. Jackson breathed deeply and marveled at his newfound strength even if he was just one step from ascending. He scanned the room which looked as if a disaster had struck it specifically. 

Jacob retracted his barrier, he heaved a sigh of relief, because his barrier needed only one tap before it would crumble.

"Bastard, I'm still in this room." Jacob cursed.

Jackson looked at him and says without emotion. "I have a sense of measure. That damned Fein. He's growing as a threat that should be removed. but after I rank up, I would take care of him this time personally."
