"I lost."
After saying that, Shizuna's golden aura completely dissipated.
The aftereffects of using super-limited power immediately hit, and the Silver Sword Master, who had always given people a strong impression, felt his legs go weak and he almost fell flat on his face.
Fortunately, Li En came forward in time and supported her.
"Senior sister, be careful."
"Thank you, my gentle junior brother." Jingnai shook her head, trying to calm down and adjust her breathing. "Yeah, yeah, even though I was prepared, I still underestimated my body's reaction."
"It's always like this the first time, it will get better once you get used to it."
Rean spoke gently, and while calming himself down, he did not forget to glance at Elfin under the wall.
He was able to break through the confusion in his heart and master the "unity of spirit and energy" thanks to Alfin's admonition.
The first time it was used was to take Elfin away from the enemy's flagship Patangui.
That was his first taste of power.
When he first entered Zhongchuan, he relied on this super-limited power to fight against the master-level enemies Du Barry and Bluebran at the same time, and remained undefeated. He then left calmly with the princess.
He encountered the obstruction of the Favonius Brigade's captains Geno and Leonidas, but easily broke through.
With one strike, he knocked down Altina who was still in the enemy camp.
Finally, he had an all-out fight with Clo on the deck and for the first time defeated this powerful enemy whose strength was no less than Sarah's.
However, after defeating Clo, Rean was exhausted and had difficulty even moving.
If his companions had not arrived in time, he and Alfin would have been treated even worse than before.
It’s been almost three years.
I have become much stronger, and the curse on me has also become much stronger.
"Mr. Rean..."
Feeling Li En's gaze, Elfin's heart moved, and a certain emotion in her chest was almost uncontrollable. Obviously, she was also thinking of the same thing.
And unlike Rean, in Alfin's heart, that breakout had a more important meaning.
It was at that time that she found that she really liked Rean, instead of just making fun of her best friend like before.
The boy in the past, now a man, looks so handsome when he gives his all.
While fighting the enemy, he also did not forget to care about his own feelings, fearing that he would be wronged in any way.
Stared at by those red eyes, the girl's heart beat rapidly, not because of fear, but because of her fluttering heartbeats.
At that moment, the girl really wanted to be held in his arms and walk to the ends of the earth.
No matter how many enemies are around her, she doesn't care, because the man in front of her, her knight will definitely protect her.
Compared with men, women tend to mature earlier, and Elfen goes even further, not only maturing earlier, but also being intelligent earlier.
I have long felt that all novels about knights and princesses are fake and are products of exaggeration. Since they are all imagination, I might as well step into the more forbidden hobbies of ladies.
It was not until the moment he picked her up that she realized she was wrong, extremely wrong.
Novels are indeed fake, because the real thing is more beautiful, more dreamy, more... thrilling, and makes people sink into it.
This drunkenness lasted for more than two years.
I still don’t want to wake up, I don’t want to wake up.
Feeling the romantic vibe emanating from her bestie, Elise began to pout again.
That's my brother.
I was here first... Why did it turn out like this
However, this delicate state only lasted for a moment, and then a chuckle was heard: "Hey~ First time."
She is Miao Jie, who has yellow in her heart and sees color in everything.
With just one sentence, the wind direction changed, and the girls' expressions became strange.
Fortunately, compared with the overall environment, the rhythm of this humming little train is obviously not enough.
As people gradually came back to their senses from the battle and as everyone confirmed Shizuna's defeat, cheers and applause rang out one after another.
Anyone with a little common sense knows what this means.
This is a true battle between masters, a contest of the same level.
There are both pure martial arts competitions and free-hand combat competitions.
Although there have been precedents of Lyanna and Aurelia for the latter, the victory achieved by relying on the mysterious ghost energy is ultimately lacking in persuasiveness and fails to show how profound Rean's swordsmanship is.
It was not until this battle, the peak confrontation between Zero and Nothing, that everyone except Aurelia, Anilas and Randy truly understood the original meaning of the title "Sword Saint".
There was no halo brought by Cassius' brilliant record, no other additions.
With a sword in hand, the world is mine.
The sword reaches the saint.
This is the Sword Master.
There is no doubt that both Rean and Shizuna meet this standard.
Just standing there, even if they were supporting each other, they exuded a sense of awe-inspiring spirit.
Of course, that was the opinion of outsiders. The two sword masters remained mentally stable.
Joy and cheers have been experienced the moment I comprehended the mystery. Although I have the qualification to look down on all the other mountains, there are still higher mountains standing tall above my head, right in front of me.
The leader of the "Ikaruga" group in Shizuna's eyes.
Gillias Osborn, Rean's biological father.
As well as their common senior brother and master.
Smug? Elated? Not even close.
Hearing Shizuna's breathing gradually calm down, Li En knew that his senior sister was no longer in danger, so he took the initiative to let go of the hand that was supporting her, holding the half-broken "Raikiri" in one hand and picking up the broken sword that fell to the ground with the other.
Just as they were about to put the swords back into the scabbard, they suddenly felt a strange gaze.
It’s Shizuna.
"Senior sister? Any other questions?"
Jingna stretched out her relatively intact right hand and pointed at the broken sword in Li En's hand: "Junior brother, do you still want your sword? If not, give it to me."
Li En was slightly stunned.
At first glance, this statement not only sounds rude, but also excessive.
You rely on your skill with the knife and not only do you want to cut off my knife, you even want my "corpse"
But Rean and Shizuna are both sword masters, and they all have the "Eye of Observation" that can see directly to the essence of things. Shizuna's request needs to be analyzed in conjunction with the fact that Rean knew that Shizuna's sword was indestructible, but he still took out his spare sword Raikiri.
In other words, Rean was already prepared for Raikiri to break.
This is definitely not the performance of a normal swordsman. He could have borrowed Anilas's Swift Feather.
Although it is not as good as Shizuna's black sword, one more collision will not break it, and it can be restored to its original state with proper maintenance and repair.
What really puzzled Rean was why Shizuna needed his broken sword.
I already have that black knife. Even Levi's Rock Eater and Markbon's Umbar may not be better than this black knife.
Shizuna once again saw through Rean's thoughts and explained with a smile:
"It's for this child. It's called the 'Demon Sword' in my hometown. It's a very dishonest fellow. Even I can't make it completely obedient. Only a weapon that has been used by a strong person for a long time and fully soaked in fighting spirit can make it temporarily obedient. Otherwise-"
The Silver Sword Master tapped the scabbard lightly, and the black sword automatically came out of the scabbard without applying any force. The enchanting aura accompanied by a cold murderous intent swept across the entire place, instantly dispelling the severe summer chill.
"—That's about it. I went through so much hardship just to be able to use it."
It seems that this senior sister has a hard time too.
Rean felt the same way, suppressing the disobedient existence, and there was another similarity: "In this case, I still have a 'Wind Cut', but it was not cut off, it was broken into many pieces..."
"Ah, you mentioned last month. That's even better. I was going to melt these children and fill the scabbards. Do you have other broken weapons? Armor and other equipment are also fine—"
When this was mentioned, Shizuna felt as if she had eaten a Snickers bar and was injected with endless energy.
Sweep away fatigue and be yourself again.
Extend your right hand forward and make a grasping gesture.
"—I want them all!"
Chapter 17 I want them all!
