Chapter 46: Chapter46-The Curtain Rises

Noticing the look in John's eyes, the team captain of the guards felt a sudden surge of unease.

It was too calm, unnaturally so.

This young man showed no sign of panic faced with a life-or-death crisis; his eyes were as tranquil and undisturbed as the surface of a lake.

Such composure, unshaken even as mountains crumble, the team captain had only seen in seasoned warriors who had survived countless brushes with death.

Yet the youth before him was barely eighteen!

As the team captain hesitated, bewildered.

He suddenly saw a mix of gold and earthen hues ignite in John's eyes.

Then, under the captain's astonished gaze.

The gold and yellow lights slowly merged, swiftly coalescing into a golden armor around John.

This armor seemed to form a seamless whole, covered in a layer of yellow scales with intricate patterns, majestic and imposing, radiating an indestructible aura!

"Gold Mail Armor!"
