In less than a second both had exchanged a flurry of blows. Camila’s giant axe had crashed into Mane’s twin heavy swords so many times that both set of weapons had developed feelings of rivalry and comradery at the same time.
Mane’s red eyes flashed strongly like the blazing coals of a fiery smelt. Along with the bellow of thunder he pierced Night’s Kiss towards Camila. As he did he didn’t forget to utilise Night Mare. The other heavy sword gathered lightning upon its blade and concentrated the destructive element wielded by Zeus and Thor onto its tip.
*Bang*
Unsurprisingly, Camila was able to deflect Night’s Kiss blade without any issue. Her huge axe span around her like an ever present shield. Like the shield of Aegis no matter which part Mane struck, she was protected. Her eyes were still lifeless, yet there was a fire that burned within its depths that tried to bore i
Once again Camila found herself below Mane’s towering figure. The red in his eyes were not at all inferior to her own, but the deep contradiction between the red of his eyes and the white of his lightning wasn’t lost on her. Several loud screeches were heard as Mane gathered lightning into his twin blades, their edges sharpening rapidly under the tempering of the destructive element.“Bloodied Blade: Crazed Cut of the Blade King!”With a furious bellow Mane announced the name of his technique. It wasn’t to anyone in particular. It was more like a declaration of what he was going to do. He intended to crash the foe before him with absolute force. The lightning around his blades screamed even louder as they became more destructive. The Bloodied Blade Series was so much more destructive than the Prideful Sword Series. So much so that Mane had been able to pick up just one technique from it so far. And when used in conjunction with an element
“You won,” Hildegarde landed on his head and said. Although Mane was hurt, she had a small smile on her face knowing that it was all over.“Yeah. This is one of the most difficult fights I’ve had to endure. And I was largely lucky.” Mane smiled wryly and said. If the other Barbarian lady had stayed behind and Nasir was also included in this fight, Mane wouldn’t have stood a chance being besieged on all sides since the transformed Camila was more than enough for him. The only thing he didn’t quite understand was why Camila didn’t use this form sooner. After all, although its aftereffects weren’t pleasant, it was better than dying. And that was why Mane attributed the victory to luck. So many elements had gone in his favor in this battle.“Something feels off,” Hildegarde suddenly stated, her expression tense.“Mane! Watch out!” she screamed.But it was too late*Puchi*
In another of the desolate parts of the wilderness, a black hole stood. The hole was a few feet off the ground and looked like a mirage to anyone who was within 50 meters of it. Yet no creature dared to get close to it. For the few that did were sucked into the black hole – well, parts of them. Some had only their heads sucked in, effectively beheading them and costing them their lives. Others had half of their bodies taken, and some were totally minced even before they could step foot into the black hole. The creatures that remained had learned from the deaths of the first few. No one dared try again.Suddenly the black hole that had been quiet all this while showed signs of activity. It moved and churned into a spiraling vacuum as it slowly grinded into motion. The few creatures around watched in curiosity as the black hole which had only been taking, spat something out for the first time. What it spat out was a large man who had a slightly panicked expression on his
Ivor’s destination was the entrance of the Dark Valley. He had placed a Space Mark there so that was the only place he could travel to. Besides, it was the only place he would need to go to since Mane’s appearance meant that the Princess wasn’t that far behind.The first thing that greeted Ivor was the dim lighting of a Light Grass. When he looked across the space to locate the source of the grass he was met with the surprised expression of the one whom he was meant to protect – the Princess he had come for.“Ivor?” Lily had a surprised expression on her face when she saw the newcomer. A black hole suddenly appeared before herself and Silver. It was within the range of the light grass that floated right before them so they saw it pretty easily. And both were pretty anxious when the gaping hole they couldn’t see through suddenly appeared before them. Their anxiety from waiting for Mane was heightened, and Silver had even summone
_The lady in red streaked through the sky effortlessly. She moved as though she was one with the wind and wind pressure didn’t seem to affect her. For the speed they moved at was beyond anything Mane had ever experienced. If it wasn’t for the green barrier, neither Mane nor the Heavenly Nether Beast would have been able to travel so comfortably amidst the strong winds that tried to bombard them from the outside.The Heavenly Nether Beast had long halted its actions. It wasn’t trying to resist anymore. After constantly striking the barrier with all its strength for several minutes without end, it had exhausted its power. What it was doing now was recovering. It was lying on the ground with its eyes closed, seemingly sleeping. But the Edict that gathered outside its barrier and permeated it to get to the large cat proved that it was doing anything but sleeping.As for Mane, he was still lying prone on the ground. The bleeding had stopped, and th
“Welcome to my tower,” the lady in red stopped before a long building that reached up to the sky. It seemed to want to reach the heavens and not want to at the same time. For its tip touched the sky before it stopped its rise. It wanted to see the heavens, but it respected them too much to actually do anything but sneak a peek. The tower was not just tall. It was made with sturdy and strong materials of much greater quality and density than white or red stones. No one beneath the Ascension Realm had the power to breach its walls!Mane frowned at the sight before him. For he could feel the power of Edict deeply entwined with the tower. He was still blindfolded, so it was his other senses he was relying on. And before his shut eyes what he could ‘see’ was a large towering solidification of Edict! Whatever this tower was, it was extraordinary. For not only was it so strong that Mane couldn’t see a way to even create a scratch on its walls, he could
On the 7th Floor of the Tower of the Hundred, two women were engaged in conversation. Both women were beautiful and dressed very conservatively. Not only were both of them perfectly lovely, they had similar demeanors. For both had the air of nobility and power swirling around them, only that one of them possessed both in greater quantity.Of the two, one was seated on a simple stool with one of her legs placed elegantly over the other. In front of her was a small table that held a kettle and a teacup. The other was standing next to the seated woman with her arms placed before her in a humble posture. As she stood her eyes didn’t travel around the room. They remained fixed on a portrait on the wall across the room. The portrait held a painting of a woman flying through the skies with a slender sword in hand and a large Dragon flying right at her side. Although it was just a painting, it held a certain grandeur and charm that was sure to draw attention to it. T
“You are finally here,” Ashera squinted her eyes with a slightly irritated look on her face as she looked at the boy standing several feet away from her. Although his clothes were comically small, he was still a dashing young man. His hair was carelessly left over his shoulder, yet it added to his charm. It was a shame that she didn’t get to see those deep blue eyes that she had only caught a glimpse of in Ivor’s memories. But she wasn’t going to ask him to take the blindfold off because it was a wise decision on the part of the boy to avoid her eyes.“Pardon my disrespect Mistress Ashera,” Mane bowed slightly in apology. He was very much in the wrong here, and it would be foolish to do anything but accept his mistake.“Pff,” Sunflower softly laughed upon seeing Mane’s current appearance. His appearance in those clothes when taking the bow, coupled with his serious expression was as sight to behold.&ld
