The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 58: Difference in Power
The bedrock was touched by the tip of the sword and shattered. It's not about fighting anymore, it's about self-esteem.
"Haa, don't make such a scary face, hey!"
Noah, who was avoiding the swing of the sword, jumped up and landed on the rocky area that was about to collapse.
Without chasing, Kaizo headed straight for Eve and the others. Eve was out of breath, and it seemed like she would faint at any moment.
"Eve, are you okay? I'll lend you,"
"Don't do anything, there's no need."
When she tried to lend him her help as he staggered, he let go of her hand.
"I don't need any of that."
"Don't be stubborn about trivial things, think of your comrades."
Eve's facial expression stiffened instantly. Rin and Misha have collapsed on the ground. They seemed to be alive, but if left like that, their lives would be in danger. Eve herself was in a condition where she could only stand.
"Guh! Kirigaya Kaizo, I owe you one."
"It's not something like a loan. It's natural to help my colleagues."
Eve's cheeks flushed at Kaizo's words.
Placing the wounded Eve near the wall to rest, Kaizo directed her gaze at Noah furiously, "You, how dare you!"
Eve Veilmist's. She was a girl with a strong sense of justice, with her seriousness and courage. Just by looking at his injured appearance, his anger surged and seemed to overflow beyond the limit.
"Don't get in my way, that's the long-awaited part where I beat that brash girl to death." Noah grinned as he slowly descended from the rocky area.
"Huu, I'm relieved."
Kaizo held his sword and glared at Noah. "If it's a nasty baj*ngan like you, I can beat you up seriously."
"Haha, didn't you say something unreasonable! It's a pity, but it's impossible for you to defeat me."
"We're here too!"
Victoria and the others ran. Holding his Fire Whip, he stood beside Kaizo. Aura stuck an arrow into her ice demon bow, and Tiana clasped the spirit crystal in both of her hands.
"Tiana, can I count on you for Eve and the others' care?"
"Yes, I'm holding some healing spirit crystals. However, its limited effect only provided a temporary peace of mind." Tiana nodded with a tense expression.
"Kaizo, you and I are going to corner that guy. Aura will be a supporting artillery battery."
"What is a supporting artillery battery!? I'm a great archer!" Aura growled, but Victoria did not respond.
"Hey, is the discussion over?" Noah calmly laughed as he approached.
The spirit emblem engraved on his right arm shone ominously, and a bluish-white glint of lightning surged out. What appeared in that hand was the same Elemental Aero Sword as Nyx.
"Should we find out which is stronger, the Sword Spirit (Exmedius) or the sword?"
"Don't mess around. You better not compare my Nyx to that third-grade sword spirit."
Holding the Nyx Rune, Kaizo ferociously approached with a deadly swing. And their sword style finally began.
****
A high-pitched metallic sound echoed together. Every time a sword flash occurred, sparks scattered within that dim light.
"Noah Alnest, what exactly is your goal? Is this about the 'Phoenix's' strategic class spirit'?!"
“Huh, I don't have such a purpose. To be honest, to me, I don't care about the 'Phoenix's' strategic class military spirit'. I will defeat you and prove that I am the successor of the Demon King. That's all."
"What Demon King? Bajak*ngan maniac demon king!"
Kaizo, who stepped into his area, slashed down with the Nyx Rune with both hands. The sword pressure was incredible. Noah immediately kept his distance from the Exmedius.
"What!?"
Noah's expression distorted in surprise and said, "Hey, hey, what a powerful elemental aero. Do that to my sword spirit in one blow?"
"Sorry, my Nyx is the strongest sword spirit."
Kaizo stepped closer. And Noah uttered the summoning to summon the sword spirit into his hand again.
"There's still more to come, it starts after this!"
"Just be free!"
Targeting the sword spirit that emerged from empty space, Kaizo relentlessly swung his sword. A sound of steel broke out, and Noah's second sword spirit also tragically disappeared.
Other than making the sword spirit both disappear, the Nyx Rune did not even have a chip on its end. It was an elemental aero that had two names, «Silient Sword Killer Demon King» and «Devil Killer».
It was frightening because even with this, it was not in a complete state. However, Noah still maintained his calm expression.
"Hmm, then, this is next!"
From the spirit seals all over his body, lightning flashes gushed out, a third sword appearing in Noah's hands.
(This guy, what the hell, how many spirits did he contract!?)
As expected, even Kaizo's face showed impatience. Even Nyx's strongest sword spirit had a great weak point that the Consumption of her divine power was too strong.
As a result of getting used to controlling him, he would not suddenly faint like before, but if the battle dragged on, he was confident that in the end he would be exhausted.
If he were to assume that Noah Alnest was actually contracted by thirty-two spirits, it would be bad if this continued. This was not an opponent he could determine his victory with a single blow, like a gigantic spirit rampaging through Academy City.
If this became a prolonged battle, he would be harmed.
(However, is that person's divine power endless!?)
If he used this many spirits, his consumption of holy power would also increase rapidly, yet he did not look exhausted and could still smile calmly.
"Kaizo, I'll protect you!"
At that moment, Victoria swung her Fire Whip, and it flew into a bow. There was a hot red glow shining in the darkness. His carefully directed whip quickly ensnared Noah's face.
"Don't get in my way!"
Noah summons the spirit as a translucent ice ball, and takes aim at Victoria and throws her away.
"What, such a thing is useless!" Victoria released a spirit magic fireball to intercept the ice spirit, yet it was a trap.
The ice ball that exploded before his eyes, turned into countless needles, and cut across Victoria's body.
"Yeah!"
"Victoria!"
Kaizo's consciousness deviated for a moment from Victoria's shout.
"Don't turn!"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Noah quickly sped up to slash. Kaizo nearly stopped his punch with the tip of the Nyx Rune. However, Noah did not slow down his attack. He continued to do so, pressing down and getting closer.
"What's up, Strongest Sword Style Holder (Rei Assar). Is that all you got?"
As he stopped the sword that was pushing him backwards, Kaizo gritted his teeth.
If he was still Rei Assar three years ago, he sure as hell did not turn towards Victoria and give Noah a chance to use his spirit.
As an elementalist, it was a fatal three-year void. He had a contracted spirit that could not bring out his original strength.
