Chapter 45 - #45 Smithing (2/2)
I thought and draw my own sword and drove it inside the ground without any resistance like a hot knife through buŧŧer.
Then I used more than half of my strength to perform horizontal slash aiming right at blade's edge.
*Clang!!* *Crack*
When the swords met each other a loud sound resounded through the cave and there was even a cracking sound but it wasn't any of my swords but the ground when my Phoenix sword was forced out of the ground by the strength behind my slash.
”...It was able to even withstand the sharpness of my Phoenix sword?” I couldn't help but mutter while looking at the blade of a newly created sword.
Although it could end differently if both of these swords met each other with a powerful slash from each side, it's still quite hard metal. But the way it gives off a green glow every time you swing is a little bit annoying.
Hmm...Maybe if it was made into katana, half of the blade on the edge's side would be made from this green metal and another side could be made from another very durable metal like Abyssal Iron that's used for weapons that can stand a chance against the clash with Teigu.

The process didn't even take that much energy. I had around 850 energy when I came inside this cave.
I thought and excavated a few of those green ores and slowly took them out of the cave, however on my way outside of the cave...
?! I narrowed my eyes when I saw something flash in the shadows behind a few boulders.
I stopped walking and dropped the ores and draw my sword.
I don't feel its presence...how is that possible?
I thought slightly shocked inwardly while observing my surroundings with calm eyes.
The alarm rang inside my head and I swiftly performed horizontal slash behind me but only thing that my sword met was an air.
?! That's not possible...there is no way it could be a false alarm.
I thought and grew even more vigilant.
After a few seconds of tense silence, the alarm once again rang inside my head.
I thought and instantly ducked the moment I heard the alarm inside my head but I still received a scratch on my cheek.
! They are extremely fast and their teamwork is also a good one, not to talk about their intelligence. The one on the left emitted more pressure and bigger danger but it was only tactic to make me focus on his side while his friend will take care of me!
I thought with wide-open eyes before I once again calmed down and narrowed my eyes.
I wanted to make the least damage possible to this cave but they are annoying to fight in such a small and closed environment.
”You are annoying, I don't know how many of you are there but I no longer care.” I said with a cold tone and spread both of my arms and intense flames gushed out of my hands however I didn't stop only after a few seconds, I wanted to make sure that the entire cave will be engulfed in flames.
[Energy: 447/1125]
I spent almost half of my energy doing this and I could feel my flames bursting out of the cave entrance so I finally stopped sending any more fire.

3 of them, huh? He was waiting for me to drop my guard and then he would strike from behind when I would have thought that there are only 2 of them. What kind of Danger Beasts were they? I guess I will never get to know after burning them to the ashes. But even the speed of that one little shit was as fast as me if not slightly faster. I probably damaged the ores at the end of this cave...but thankfully I still have ores that I dropped under my legs. I created a vacuum around me so no flames could devour things on me, including ores or even my clothes.
