Episode 81 I’ve been waiting for this day. (4)
“This piece of trash!”
Victor woke up, gritting his teeth.
The burned face and body were stingingly hot and painful.
The armor was already so hot that it was becoming a hindrance to wear it.
The sword also seemed like it would bend if it received even the slightest impact.
Although he was able to suppress the heat with mana, he could not hold out for long.
We need to deal with this guy quickly and get out of here.
“I’ll kill you and cut off all the others’ heads.”
Victor glared at Giselle and placed his hand on his waist.
Swish.
Without hesitation, he took out his dagger and cut through the armor’s seams, throwing them away piece by piece.
Clank. Clank.
Victor, who had taken off his armor and felt much lighter, smiled with his lips curled.
“You’ve been waiting, you’re quite polite.”
“If you just kill me, you’ll be making excuses in the afterlife. That guy who doesn’t know honor attacked me when I was taking off my armor, so it’s definitely not because of my skills.”
“This cheeky brat… … .”
Viktor breathed life into his sword, infusing it with mana.
A refreshing blue light, out of place in the red-tinted space, enveloped the sword.
The bright light that spread out was proof of how excellent Victor’s skills were.
“Yeah, that’s about it.”
When Jiselle saw that sight, red flowers began to bloom in her eyes.
“That’s how you make catching fun.”
Wooooow!
As Jiselle opened three cores at the same time, a heavy aura spread around her and the sword turned red.
Victor looked incredulous.
“How did you get such power… …. How wrong is the information?”
“Ask your master in Hell. Oh, your master will arrive later than you, so you’ll have to wait a bit. He must be bored.”
“I’ll rip that mouth open!”
Kwaaaaang!
In an instant, the distance between the two people narrowed.
The impact of the swords clashing caused the flames around the two to distort and be pushed away.
“Is this all you can do? Try harder, Harold’s dog.”
“Shut up! You piece of trash!”
Ggggggggggggggggg!
Victor withstood Giselle’s mana, which opened all three cores.
Even after being hit by the flames like that, the amount of mana was truly enormous.
Indeed, he had the skills to aim for the title of the best knight in the North.
Unlike Giselle, who was secretly impressed, Victor was still confused.
‘If you weren’t hiding your power… … there must be another way to achieve this kind of power.’
Raising such a person while deceiving the public’s attention was not something that could be done in a remote, isolated territory like Ferdium.
Victor thought that Giselle had temporarily become stronger, either through magic or some other trick.
“What kind of trick did you use!”
Boohoo!
Jiselle straightened her sword and blocked Victor’s attack.
Kaaaaang!
My body suddenly lifted slightly and I was pushed to the side. My hands went numb from the impact.
‘As expected, he’s not an easy guy.’
Jiselle also trained and accumulated mana whenever she had time, but it was nothing compared to Viktor’s mana.
His mana reserves were astounding.
It’s similar to me having opened all three stages and amplified my power.
He was indeed a talented person whom Harold had raised with great care.
WHEEK!
Before he could even straighten his posture, Viktor followed him and swung his sword again.
Kaaaaang!
Jiselle barely managed to raise her sword and block it.
My feet pushed and the ground dug. My body ached from the pouring pressure.
But he showed it and laughed.
“I thought I had quite a bit of strength in the past.”
“what?”
“I like doing things with force too.”
Jiselle quickly turned her body and swung her sword down.
Kaang!
This time, it looked like Viktor was blocking from below.
In an instant, the location of the workshop changed.
Jiselle didn’t miss that moment and swung her sword without stopping.
The opponent also kept his distance and confronted me with his sword with all his might.
Kaang! Kaang! Kaang!

Every time the two swords clashed, they bounced in the opposite direction.
Neither side was able to properly recover from the shock.
“How dare this guy!”
Victor gritted his teeth and poured out all his remaining mana.
I’ve given up on killing other guys.
The enemy in front of him was not someone he could defeat while leaving no room for improvement.
Gooooooo!
As Victor pushed his mana to its limit, the mana in his sword became more and more blue.
Cheeeeek!
Jiselle’s sword also became redder. Red smoke rose from his body.
It is not possible to keep all three cores open at the same time for a long time.
We had to settle the matter as quickly as possible.
Kuung!
The sound of weapons clashing has changed.
It was not the sound of iron clashing with iron, but the sound of mana clashing with mana.
The fire that had been engulfing the area was pushed back by the energy and could not invade the area around the two people.
The two moved quickly in the completely entangled mana.
Kwaaang!
With every step you take, the ground bursts apart.
The two men were so absorbed in their battles that they swung their swords only to take each other’s lives.
Kwah! Kwah! Kwah!
After hundreds of rounds of fighting that most people would never even see, Victor began to gradually get pushed back.
“T, what is this… … .”
The speed of movement and the force of the encounter were equal, but there was a significant difference in technique.
For every wound that Giselle received, Viktor received two. Then three, then four.
Victor found it difficult to keep up with the increasingly bizarre swordplay.
“How on earth can someone like you do this! I can’t accept it!”
“This is a funny kid. When did I ask you to admit it?”
Victor swung his sword with all his might at the screaming Giselle.
It looked like it was going to be torn in half from head to toe.
The power was quite great, but Jiselle was not one to be affected by such a simple attack.
Phew!
Giselle, who did not miss the moment, extended her sword.
The tip of the sword, which had been shaking strangely, dug into the area near the opponent’s heart.
“Ugh!”
Victor stepped back, clutching his chest.
Jiselle’s expression was also stiff.
‘It was a failure.’
The aftershock of opening the core to stage 3 was slowly approaching.
Unable to withstand the spinning mana, muscles began to tear and bones began to twist.
If things continued this way, he would fall before he could kill the enemy.
Feeling something flowing, Giselle wiped her nose with her finger. There was a lot of blood.
It seemed like the limit had been reached.
If this continues, blood will soon start flowing out of my ears, mouth, and eyes.
Victor also quickly sensed Giselle’s anomaly. A ecstatic laugh escaped his lips.
“Kuhaha, I see. I somehow thought that the strength was abnormal. It was a trick after all. Like drawing out life force to the limit. Is it some kind of black magic?”
“You’re a quick-witted kid. So, are you planning on running away and wasting time this time?”
“No, then you can save your strength. It would be better to push a little harder.”
As expected of a talented drone, Victor was able to quickly assess Giselle’s condition and figure out the best way to respond.
The wound on his chest was not shallow, but he was strong enough to endure and fight.
“I see now. You were the variable. Was Frank also your doing? Yeah, there’s no way Frank could handle you.”
Victor couldn’t stop laughing.
I finally found the cause of my discomfort.
The real variable that neither Harold, his staff, nor his spies knew about.
Because of this guy, the plans were bound to fail again and again.
“I will cut off your head and offer it to the Count. Then you will have another chance.”
“Don’t mess with me. Whose neck are you talking about? Do you think you can go back?”
Boom!
This time, Giselle attacked Victor first.
“Hahaha! Kill me once!”
Although his skills were clearly inferior to Giselle’s, Victor was not worried.
Soon, when Jiselle’s powers were exhausted, she would be able to crush them with overwhelming speed and strength.
Boom!
The two men’s swords clashed again.
Unlike Giselle, who was focused on attacking, Victor focused only on blocking.
The wounds increased one by one, but I held on while avoiding the vital points.
If it seemed unavoidable, I would just give it to a place where life would not be in danger.
“Hahahaha! You idiot! How long do you think you can hold out like that!”
Even though he was covered in blood, Victor couldn’t help but laugh.
In contrast, the smile had long since disappeared from Giselle’s face.
Crack!
Jiselle gritted her teeth.
‘Is this it?’
The tip of the sword began to shake uncontrollably.
The opponent did not miss that opportunity.
“You are finished now!”
Kwaaang!
Victor’s counterattack has begun.
Jiselle hastily pulled back, but her body, which had reached its limit, was unable to properly dissipate the shock.
Blood also began to flow from his eyes and ears.
“It’s over! You piece of trash!”
Boom!
As the swords clashed again, Giselle staggered back, unable to withstand the force.
He ended up half-sitting on the floor.
“Whoa!”
Blood poured out of his mouth.
“Die!”
Boohoo!
Victor’s sword flew towards Giselle’s neck.
That was when.
Jiselle stretched out her left hand, which was not holding the sword, forward.
Bam!
“uh?”
Victor, who was swinging his sword, stopped for a moment. He felt as if some unknown energy was binding his body.
“The remaining tricks!”
Thud thud!
As he drew up mana to fight back, the threads of mana that had been binding him broke and disappeared.
Boooow!
The sword tore through the air again.
It was a move that couldn’t be more perfect.
At that moment, Jiselle’s left hand turned half a turn again.
Kwaaaaang!
Victor’s sword struck the floor in vain.
“uh?”
He was clearly aiming for Giselle’s head, but an unknown force shook his posture.
It was a weak force that could only change direction a little.
But because of the obstruction, Victor’s sword couldn’t even reach Giselle’s body.
“Shit!”
The moment Victor hurriedly corrected his posture and tried to pull out the sword stuck in the ground.
Phew!
Cold metal dug into his thick neck.
“Krrr, krrrrr!”
Blood poured out between the wound and the blade.
Victor’s eyes were filled with only puzzlement.
Swish!
As Giselle pulled out her sword, Viktor fell face down on the floor, blood gushing from his neck.
Jiselle kicked his trembling body with her foot and turned him over.
“Kruk, uh, how… … .”
Whether it was because of his obsession with life or his resentment, Victor continued to breathe thinly.
Giselle staggered to her feet and looked down at Victor’s face.
“Then you thought you’d only win your whole life? You didn’t even know who I was. That’s why you lost, you brat.”
A blood-covered Giselle smiled, showing her teeth.
Every muscle in his body was creaking and screaming, but the joy of victory overwhelmed the pain.
“I will win from now on. Come attack me as many times as you want. I will eat them all.”
“… … .”
“Still, you count yourself lucky. You tend to die gracefully.”
Jiselle grabbed her sword with her bloodied hand and struck it down in one stroke.
