Chapter 391 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [162] (2/2)

「HAAAAAAA”A”A”A”A!」

「–Naive!」

The battle was completely tipped in his favour. I was being pushed back.

Von Mustang boasted unimaginable strength.

What was even more amazing was his defense.

A true soul dress that can be used in any and all situations. Swordsmanship with a short sword and a shield which doesn’t allow any gap in defense. An iron wall combination.

Black Sword, dark slashes, bare hands – none of my attacks had any effect on him at all. Only the wounds on my body increased every time I attacked him.

But still… It was fun!

「Gyahahahaha! You’re amazing! This is the first time I’m dancing with such a strong guy!」

Crossing swords with him was exciting.

「True Heart Style – Truest Thrust!」

Von’s thrust pierced my left shoulder, inflicting burning pain.

「Aa”h! That feels good! What a sharp thrust!」

I took a big step towards him while his short sword was still lodged in my shoulder, and swung down my black sword.

However, he blocked my blow with his shield.

「Get away from me!」

A strong kick pierced my side, and I was blown back greatly.

「Kuku, as expected of a Seven Holy Sword. In addition to your swordsmanship and true soul dress, even your physical strength is perfect!」

I was being pushed back, slashed, and being kicked away like a rag doll.

(But I wonder why… I don’t feel like I’m losing at all!)

(Strange… I am certainly the one who is in control of this battle right now… and yet, why… Why am I… so scared of the swordsman Allen Rodore!?)

Confidence gradually faded from Von’s expresion.
