Shinji stopped moving and stood there as if he had lost power.
The coercive power of the Golden and Silver Demon Eyes is somewhat similar to the Command Spell. The simpler the command and the clearer the target, the stronger the coercive power. The Shadow Warrior's "Stop" is the simplest and most commanding one.
Originating from the original sense of human beings, the power of seeing and being seen, the most important of all perceptions, is sublimated into mystery, radiating from the golden and silver demon pupils, binding Shinji's body, unable to move forward or backward, and being imprisoned in place.
High-level magic eyes are so powerful that so many people flock to them.
The timing of the Shadow Warrior's use of the Mystic Eye was very clever. At the most critical moment of Waver's analysis, when everyone thought she was furious and had nothing to do, she mixed the order with the scolding, and even Gray and Waver, who had suffered a loss once, did not notice it, let alone others.
By the time they reacted, it was too late. The shadow warrior's sword was less than three centimeters away from Shinji's neck. The surrounding strong men could only watch helplessly, and they didn't even have time to speak out a warning.
The sword was getting closer.
0.1 second
0.01 seconds
Or in an even shorter time, the straight sword, swung with all the strength of the female servant, covered the final distance and was about to cut the boy's neck and chop off his head.
At the critical moment, Shinji's body suddenly leaned back, almost sticking to the sword edge to avoid the fatal blow.
The shadow warrior's heterochromatic eyes shrank at that moment, and he instinctively wanted to stop, but it was too late.
In order to ensure that the enemy was killed and to attack the hateful clown immediately after killing the enemy, she used all her strength in this sword.
The Shadow Warrior's target has always been Weber, and the person he hates the most is also Weber.
stingy.
Small-minded.
Gloomy and surly.
Can't get up in the morning.
He holds some moldy books all day long. He is always humble but arrogant.
With a face that looks like he is working hard, when you look back you find that he is actually the one causing the most trouble.
She came to this conclusion just at the first sight of Weber, because she or Iskandar had had such a person by her side before she died.
That man's name was Eumenes, a former secretary of Iskandar and one of the people who dealt with the Kagemusha the most.
In her words—
"It's annoying. It's really annoying. I'm tired of seeing Eumenes's weird face, but now I have to keep seeing it in this era."
But she was not the kind of person who made trouble for no reason. As the king's shadow warrior, she often helped Iskandar handle government affairs and meet with ministers, and would not neglect talents because of a momentary temper. Although she hated him, if Waver showed enough strength, she would recognize him.
Unfortunately, Weber didn't. She was very angry when he behaved very badly during their first meeting.
"I followed him after all, and I thought he was a great magician, but he turned out to be such a loser. He's far inferior to Eumenes. Not even a little bit. I didn't expect to have the wisdom of Amon's priests and Aristotle, but a useless brain like this is better to be dug out and fed to monkeys."
In anger, she launched an attack on Weber, and the same thing happened now.
You've only been with the king for about half a month, and you're so shameless and brazen as to claim that you want to follow the king? There should be a limit to your arrogance, you bastard!
Kill him! You must kill him!
Even if the enemy has the advantage in numbers, even if there are strong people like Lorelei and Matou Shinji, or even a terrifying existence that she herself cannot see through, she is not afraid.
She had followed the greatest conqueror king through countless battles and conquered countless nations. She had killed countless powerful enemies along the way. So how could she be afraid of these flowers in peacetime
This is the confidence of a warrior who has walked through mountains of corpses and seas of bones, and it is also the reason for her defeat.
People in wartime and peacetime are indeed incomparable. The former have experienced more ups and downs than the latter can imagine. However, there are always exceptions, and there are always a few freaks in every era. In wartime, there are also noble ladies who are too well protected and know nothing. In peacetime, there are also freaks like Matou Shinji who specializes in fighting servants and old monsters and has ridiculously rich combat experience.
The moment the force was imposed, Shinji found a way to fight back - using his magic resistance and willpower to resist. Servants with strong enough magic resistance can resist the Command Spells, and heroes with strong enough willpower can also delay the effects of the Command Spells. Astolfo relied on his magic resistance and willpower to hold out for several days under Serenike's torture, and finally supported himself until Shinji rescued him.
Although Shinji's resistance to magic is not as good as Astolfo who has the "Break Declaration", his willpower is stronger than anyone else's as he has entered the third magic realm and has been sharing Elquet's bloodsucking impulse for the past few years.
The pause was only a brief moment, and everything that followed was a strategy to deceive the enemy, in order to create the moment when the shadow warrior's attack missed and his chest was wide open.
With a force on his wrist, the "Scythe of Death" in his hand flew out and hit the female warrior's abdomen. Then, Shinji reached out with both hands, grabbed the shadow warrior's arm with one hand, grabbed her belt with the other hand, and pressed her heavily to the ground, causing her to fall dizzy.
Without giving the female warrior time to recover, Shinji grabbed her from the ground and threw her to the ground on the other side with his backhand. He then picked her up and threw her again, repeating this several times until he heard the sound of the female warrior's bones breaking multiple times. Then he threw her towards Hatres who was standing opposite him like a rag bag.
Hatteras quickly moved aside, with only a wry smile on his overly handsome face.
"You're being too harsh. This will make girls hate you."
"She's not a girl, she's a warrior." Shinji shook his head. "When a warrior goes to the battlefield, it's all about life and death. Just like she used the Mystic Eye to trick me just now, if I didn't have a way to fight back, I would have deserved to die, and the same goes for her."
Of course, having said that, Shinji still secretly glanced at the women behind him.
Elquet was still heartless; Loreleija's expression did not change much; Kanono Hishiri crossed her arms, looking thoughtful; Luvia and Fiore bit their ears quietly, with strange expressions but no disgust; Yvette and Olga Marie's faces turned pale, as if they were frightened.
The two closest to him were calm, the reactions of those who had some overlap were okay, and those who had no relationship could be ignored - well, it seems that they did not leave a bad impression. What, male? That's not important at all.
As for the fallen shadow warrior, her reaction fully demonstrated that she was a mature warrior. She leaned against the wall, supported by her sword, and stood up, frankly admitting her defeat.
"I was careless and not as skilled as others. I didn't expect that there are still people who would use Pankrasin now. Once caught, they would destroy everything. It really lives up to its reputation."
"You're too kind. Compared to a real wrestling master, I'm still far behind." Shinji bumped his fists. His definition of a master was based on Chiron and Achilles. Compared to those two god-level masters, he was indeed far behind.
"I'm sorry, Master. I lose."
The Kagemusha apologized again to Heartress, who shook his head.
"It's not your fault. I insisted on staying here."
Shinji ignored the master and servant who were comforting each other and turned his head to look at Waver.
"You may continue."
Waver did not refuse, nodded, and said: "You are not in the 'King's Army' because you rejected the king's summons, and you hate the 'King's Army'!"
PS: Elquet: Oh, that’s very interesting.
Erye: Calm down, calm down.
