Damnatio felt as if he was facing the man who once made him kneel. A man with a hundred swords, that who that man is. Damnatio fought that man 15 years ago, he was devasted, took him 5 whole years to recover from the injuries and trauma. And now, memories are flooding him, as this brat and that guy have the same aura and feeling. Are they related? Is what he is asking to himself right now. But being curious and nostalgic at times like this is not good. Damnatio healed the wound that he got from that surprise attack, and then he smirked,“Brat! State your name!” Damnatio bellowed.The demons who were his allies felt the terror and then ran away. And with the sudden release of immense dark energy, some swordsmen and women fell unconscious. Jason and the commander gripped on their swords tightly, preparing for an all-out war that is much worse that it is already. Kendrick then brought Michaela to safety. He climbed up the roof of a building and looked towards Damnatio. With his holy swor
Their fight resumed with Kendrick being the first to attack this time. As he lands hits on the enemy’s sword, he kept on remembering the training and the dos and don’ts against Damnatio.“Kendrick, by the time you are already crossing swords with the demon, always to remember to cover up your weak spots, but don’t make it obvious that you are covering it as it would end up being on his advantage. Don’t just attack with complete calculations, attack randomly sometimes. As attacks being sent randomly is one of the most difficult things to predict, so yes, attack recklessly and randomly sometimes. Always take the risk to learn.” Amaterasu told Kendrick as they went on to train with their swords.And that is what Kendrick is doing right now. Each minute, he can send a thousand attacks, and that is an exceptional level, considering his stage. And 80% of those attacks were all random, that’s why Damnatio was hit neatly a few times. However, it wasn’t long before Damnatio adapted to Kendrick
“Don’t!” Amaterasu screamed.Right after the thunder rolled from the heavens, Kendrick stopped himself from using that power.“It is not time! That technique is one-timer only. Damnatio is still at his full potential, and using it means you drain yourself and be killed and let that demon still have power to kill you. That technique is meant to be used at the final of final moments in a battle. Think wisely.” Amaterasu pointed out as Kendrick remembered the consequences.The spiritual energy the technique would drain would be significant. Amaterasu was right, he was thinking too reckless and was about to use his ultimate technique against an opponent whom he hasn’t even severely scratched yet. Damnatio on the other hand has felt the sudden spike of pressure and energy from this kid. It was if all of his aspects were increased hundreds of times than what he is. He smiled, as this kid has a lot of tricks up his sleeves, and it was if he never runs out of room for development, and that is
Kendrick swung his left and right arm that was holding both of his swords, but both were dodged by the raging Damnatio. So, since it was ineffective, Kendrick tried to kick the demon in the chest with his left leg, but it was blocked when Damnatio raised his leg and caught the kick with his knee. Kendrick gritted his teeth, as it was if there were no openings in Damnatio’s defense, and every attack he does, all of it were just useless and he ends up being the one who gets hurt by his own attacks.“Die!” Damnatio bellowed as he is just full of anger towards Kendrick.Kendrick, while defending himself in full speed, was thinking of ways to land a clean hit on Damnatio to at least slow down his momentum as they are just going too fast. And it was depleting Kendrick’s stamina faster than he expected. Not to mention the fact that he needs to put full power in all of his defense as the attacks of Damnatio were just overwhelmingly stronger than earlier. Kendrick was also asking for advice fr
The battle, which was already intense earlier, got much more nerve-racking. The clash between the two was faster than earlier, and it was just incredible and terrifying at the same. Because the fact that a student is doing these kinds of things and having a full form of an angel is not something to see every day. Normally, swordsmen and women would have to take at least decades to perfect their forms. And not everyone can activate this kind of form as it only works for the chosen ones. The swords community is now watching the battle from afar. Since a lot of them have injuries and won’t make it in time to reach the camp, they decided to stay in this position for a while and tend to the wounded. And they are also here to make sure that Kendrick will have reinforcements once he asks for it. As they watch, one of the swordsmen then approached Jason and the commander,“Sir, Ma’am. I got something.” The man says.He then took out his camera that is connected to every public screen througho
Noticing that everything has become silent and calmed down. Jason and the others looked towards the academy, to see that there is no more battle, everything has died out, and Damnatio has finally been defeated. The broadcast was up again, and it returned to the screens right exactly when the swordsmen and women are now getting the injured body of Kendrick to get him treated. As the people sees this, they just burst into cheering. Not considering the safety of their surroundings, all of them went out of their evacuation center to celebrate this victory. The swordsmen and women who quit in the middle of the battle are now the ones securing the safety of the celebrating citizens as compensation for what they have done earlier. What they saw, the fight of Kendrick earlier, was an eye-opener for them. A kid, who has no actual experience when it comes to this situation just defeated and killed a being that could destroy a country and come out of it alive. They are ashamed for what they have
Having been named as the first ever hunter of this city is a big deal. Hunters are like Slayers. The only difference is that Slayers are the typical high-ranking positions in the sword’s army in a city. And the Hunters are the high-ranking swordsmen or women and is considered as one of the most powerful individuals in a country. Right now, there are 3 Hunters in this, and Kendrick will be the 4th. Because right now, Kendrick is both one of the most powerful and one of the strongest people in the country. Kendrick was just in shock, he never expected to be in this kind of level already, however, no one can deny the fact that he is the most powerful in this city. And it is pretty much not debatable whether he is right for the position or not. Kendrick just accepted the job and went to continue the party.***2 months have passed, Kendrick is now fully recovered and is now doing his final training before he leaves the city tomorrow. The Slayers, including him, a Hunter, were tasked by t
Kendrick’s first impression on the ruined city, was it was ruined. Greens have taken over the whole city, and some buildings are now collapsed. There are some which are still standing, but it is sure to fall sooner or later. There were no demons, which is a good thing, for now. Kendrick then reached the center of the city and in this plaza. He jumped off the horse and then let the horse, which he named Char eat the grass along with the water he brought. Kendrick then left Char for a while to scout the 1-kilometer radius. With his holy sword at a ready since there is no assurance that there won’t be any attacks, especially in this place of ruins. As he looks around, Kendrick can feel heaviness in his surroundings. The grief, the regrets, he can feel it all. It was so intense and heavy that he starts to feel that he was about to puke. This is much worse than when they went out of the walls 2 months ago. There were no ominous feeling and evil things as of now in this place, however, it
