"What kind of talent does that brat have?"
Gaban suddenly felt overwhelmed. He had never expected Shane's strength to surge so abruptly.
None of the major events he had heard about over the past year or so had warranted this kind of shock.
Even his defeat of Golden Lion had only been a description in a newspaper. Only now, when he sensed Shane unleashing a power similar to Roger's, did he find it strange.

Shane had carried on this legacy. Without a demon king, there would naturally be no hero!
