195 Trust Me (1/2)
”Before we start the battle, can I ask you something?” Zowen wanted to satisfy her curiosity about the man, ”If you want to establish a contract with me that bad, why didn't you agree with my offer?”
”The reason is simple, I might need the spirit, but I don't regard them as a weapon. So I want to build a relationship based on honesty and respect instead of lies and deceit,” Tang Shaoyang gave her an honest answer, ”That should be enough, let's start the battle!”
”Also, it's not that I want badly to establish a contract with you. You have taken my sacrifice, so of course, I don't want to come back empty hand after you took my sacrifice. Unless you can give me back the sacrifice, I will gladly let you go and summon a new spirit!”
”I see~ Honesty and respect, huh!?” Past memories flashed in her mind, causing her to have a bitter underneath the lightning that shrouded her features, ”Even though I was wrong either, it does not mean I will forgive you!”
”Let's start the fight and I show you how powerless you are in front of the magus!” Her figure suddenly floated to the sky as lightning around her body went wild.
—If you want to finish the battle quickly, we can try [Spirit Integration] with me. We will surprise her with our extreme movement and defeat her. You can't win against her one vs one.
Zaneos immediately volunteered to integrate with Tang Shaoyang. It was a rare occasion for the Demon Swordsman to volunteer himself like this. However, Tang Shaoyang did not want to use that yet, ”I will defeat her with my own strength!”
He took out the big and long red club. Around two meters long, and red-blood covered the club. This was Three-Headed Ogre's weapon, he took the weapon because this was a decent weapon.

”You will regret underestimating me,” Zowen extended her right arm, the sphere of lightning formed in her hand.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Three strikes of lightning shot toward Tang Shaoyang. She was probing how capable he was, but a simple spell posed no threat to the man as he easily dodged each of her lightning bolts.
”Then what about this!” Dozens of lightning bolts flew toward Tang Shaoyang. To her surprise, he agily dodged all her lightning bolts with ease.
'That was only a decoy, the real attack is coming!'
Rumble!
The sky let out a strong rumble before lightning struck down toward where the man was. The strike came from an unexpected direction and also his blindspot.
Boom!
'How?' Zowen was sure that the man did not notice the incoming lightning, but how could he dodge the strike.
For someone who faced the strike the first time, they would look to the sky when the rumble resounded. When they looked up, the Lightning Wrath would strike them down. However, the man did not even look up, he just moved the side, avoiding the strike.
'Interesting, how about this then!' She extended her hand toward the man who was still looking up to her. A dot made of lightning surrounded the man in the square shape.
”Lightning Cage!” It was a spell to limit her target movement, however, before the lightning could form a cage, the man had moved out of the formation. His reaction was so fast that the moment the formation was set up, he immediately got out of the formation.
As a Magus, she was curious as to how the man could read all her attacks. It was as if he predicted all her attacks beforehand.
'Huh, no wonder he was confident that he could defeat me. But if you think you can by dodging, you are wrong!'
Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz!
The lightning cage formed but the target was outside the cage. Tang Shaoyang glanced at the lightning cage before he looked back to Lightning Magus.
