Chapter 124 - Volume 2
TL: Sorry for the late chapter. I finally broke through my overwatch rank points at 2000. It’s really a hard game, haha.
I’ll probably do 1 more chapter of TGTBGAM and TAS within the day.
Chapter 68 – Brendel’s swordsmanship (3)
After the words left through Buga’s lips, the greatsword in his hand swung vertically down towards Brendel’s head. He was ten meters apart from Brendel, but he combined it with a powerful jump that closed the distance, and in just a split second the heavy sword had already reached Brendel’s head.
Brendel did not need to look at the oncoming sword to know how dangerous it was. It was almost like an avalanche happening on top of a snow mountain. Before the sword reached its mark, the sound that emitted from was like thunder.
[Definitely a Gold-tier’s strength!] Brendel gritted his teeth and prepared his stance.
He tilted his neck and lined his left arm to form a triangle on the upper half of his body. It was the best defense he could use at his disposal. The system he had combined the levels of his skills and shaped into a reality where his physical feats were raised; if he was still in the game, the description would be ‘Aouine rank 9 Swordsmanship defensive stance – 27% chance to parry’.
The swords met in a blaze of sparks, and Brendel’s sword screamed as if it was in pain. The sword twisted back as it failed to stop the greatsword. He constantly adjusted the strength in his hand, but the immense power behind the greatsword seemed to press forward every inch like an unstoppable tidal wave, and he realized that he was unable to avoid it.
This was the absolute level of disparity in skill when it came to techniques.
Buga was forced back by Brendel again and again, until he finally came to the conclusion that there would not be a result where he could win by skill alone. He had no choice but to use his full abilities, and channel his ‘Earth’ Element into his fist to defend against Brendel’s sword.
A huge clanging sound resounded through the hall.
This time it was Brendel who flew back ten over meters and smashed into the crowd.
Nobody cheered for Buga’s punch.
[Aouine’s swordsmanship? Is that really it?]
[How could it be used in that manner?]
[Just exactly how talented is that young man in the sword? Buga actually failed to defend against his attacks even once?]
