Chapter 53 53 Clash of blades (3)

[OP: ]

The troll heor's weapon crashed with a strange, transparent thin membrane, and its defensive properties were so strong that he himself was thrown back momentarily.

"Gurk…!"

And he knew this was dangerous because his opponent had finished his stance.

-Click!

His body was still out of control when he saw a powerful horizontal attack coming his way. He was still airborne and had no choice but to block the attack with his body...

-Kuchak!

He instinctively bent his hands in a defensive form and the powerful slashing attack left a deep cut on them as he regained his footing.

Blood flowed from the wound that had almost severed both his arms, but the eyes of the troll hero was still locked on his opponent.

-Ooooooong…

He was a troll, an awakened one that had been through countless battles in his life.

A wound that doesn't kill him instantly wasn't something he had to even look at.

His regeneration power instantly healed the wounds and even regenerated the skin.

He was gifted with the greatest regeneration power among them, and though El secretly wondered how long this power would last if wounded a few thousand times, Lucy didn't have any need to test that in this battle.

He had figured out the opponent had good insight with their very first confrontation, he had figured out the opponent had good reaction time, muscle strength, and judgment when he stepped back, and with this one attack, he figured out the strengths of the opponent's passive [Body armor] and [Super regeneration].

Now… all he had left to test, was the resolve to win and save his family his opponent had, how quickly he could learn, how quickly he could grow when not just his but his remaining family's life was on the line, and lastly how much his abilities would get boosted when faced with an unfathomable situation.

He wanted this creature, and he was testing him right now, and, to finish his testing and figure out how much he will have to work on him…

"Get ready."

-Ooooooooooong…!

With a smirk on his face, Lucy called upon his Aura, and the blade of the red sword in his hand burned with a chilling fire that held the power to freeze the very blood that made the trolls who they were…

-Swish!

So, in the open area at the back of the devastated troll village, in the open area where the battle to decide the end of the inhabitants of this settlement was ongoing… Lucy suddenly vanished from the eyes of the spectators just after his sword had caught a unique red fire.

And it wasn't like he used some kind of skill… he just, vanished like he had never existed there.

It confused them, but the opponent facing Lucy instantly got alerted.

His senses screamed that he was still there and he had to react in this very instance or-...!

-Kuchak!

Out of nowhere, he sensed a weird sting on his hand and looked down at it, only to find a deep cut opening up.

-Swish swish swish swish!

And as he felt this, cut marks similar to it appeared all over his body and blood suddenly erupted from them at once like a fountain.

"Ghukkkkkkk!"

He was surprised. He was neither expecting this kind of attack nor the precision that bypassed even his senses.

He couldn't perceive him, he knew the opponent was there but to his senses, it was as if he was everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

-Swiah…!

A horizontal slash followed after those cuts and cut right through his abdomen, opening a new fountain of blood.

He was confused about how he was doing it, but from his experience, he could tell that his opponent's speed must be greater than what he could perceive to create this kind of phenomenon.

He could neither see him, smell him, feel him in the surrounding, or even hear the sounds of his attacks. But he was definitely there.

He was just too good at this. His attacks were too flawless. It was unfathomable how someone could polish their techniques so much that it reaches a realm that even his heightened senses would miss him.

But…

"Gruuuuuuuk!"

The troll hero used his [Cutting tornado] skill and summoned a gust of strong winds all around him, sharp enough to hold the power to even cut the very ground they were fighting on.

"Grgggh!"

This bought him a moment and Lucy reappeared for the moment this skill was in effect and, waited until its small duration ended.

He already knew how this skill worked and against the long cooldown time, it was something only usable in emergency situations like this.

He could cut right through this skill, but that would waste more than the necessary energy. So, he waited, and inside this tornado of sharp winds, the troll hero regenerated his wounds and looked at his opponent with dead calm eyes.

He knew the enemy was strong but he didn't know the difference in strength was this great.

He was never expecting this, and he knew he was definitely stronger than him in the pure physical strength aspect, so this was even more absurd!

He cut through his strong body like it was nothing, the very strong body that had stood unscratched against that ferocious creature.

"Grrrrrrrr..."

The troll hero Gurak was in the most unfamiliar situation he had ever been in.

He didn't just how can someone so small and weak looking could hold such mastery and strength, but still… he knew what he had to do if he wanted to contend against that abnormal speed and precision, as well as the cold flames that induced a kind of pain that he had never felt before.

-Swish…!

So, this time, when the skill effect of the tornado ended and Lucy vanished again, the troll hero just stood there with his weapon loose in his hand, his eyes closed and the air around him calmer than ever before.

-Swish swish swish swish swish!

The cutting attacks like the previous ones cut him again in the very same spot as before.

-Swish…!

-Click.

The slash to his abdomen also landed in the very same place and the wound that had just healed opened up again.

-Thut thut thut thut!

And following the slash, strong stabs landed on the vulnerable parts of his body, causing deep wounds, some so deep his organs and bones became visible.

The continuous barrage of wounds accumulated and the blood loss, pain, and all these relentless attacks pushed him to a corner… but he stayed still, did not respond to any of the attacks, and continued taking everything with his closed eyes and calm heart, until…

-Swish swish swish- clank!

The cuts that had only created the unnatural sound of wood cutting through flesh, were blocked by another chunk of strong wood.

-Clank…!

And then the horizontal slash was blocked.

-Clank!

And then, the area that was filled with the melodious sound of dripping blood and cutting flesh until just a moment ago, was now again filled with the harmony of clashing weapons.

-Clank! Tuck! Clung!

However, there were only the sounds in this area.

-Clank!

The blades or the wielders of these weapons were not in their sight anymore. Even the blood that was continuously splashing the ground had started slowing down...

Lucy was expecting this, no, he wanted this troll hero to meet his expectations and at least reach this stage.

And, though with much difficulty, the troll hero actually achieved this realm that few in the world ever get the chance to experience in their lifetimes...

But they were here now, alone, so, there was no need to drag this any longer...
