Episode 23.13 (2/2)
Lecan held out his left hand forward, his palm turned toward Zaifad.
”<Flame Spear>!”
A red ray of light assaulted Zaifad. His reflexes that allowed him to parry that with <Shield of Wolkan> was superb.
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”

”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
A rapid fire of <Flame Spears> without even a breather.
Zaifad managed to parry the first three spears with his shield, but after that, he couldn't afford to even position his shield to protect against the barrage of rays, he moved his shield into protecting his head and chest while relying on his armor to endure the magic barrage.
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
It's really one highly protective armor.
Even after that many <Flame Spears>, there's no obvious scratches let alone damage on it.
That said, its once beautiful argent luster is turning darker, and you can see small scratches forming here and there.
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
The barrage of magic was relentless, regardless if it hit the armor or the shield.
As Lecan continued to shoot the magic with his left hand, he used his right hand to put away <Sword of Rusk> and fetched <Sword of Agost>. He ended up showing <Storage> in front of many people, but winning this duel took priority.
Zaifad's legs are already staggering.
The heat and impact from <Flame Spears> are quite toilsome. The body inside that armor must be suffering burns and wounds all over.
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
”<Flame Spear>!”
Lecan stopped his magic attack, brandished <Sword of Agost> behind using both his hand and run forward.
Zaifad barely managed to hold up his shield against Lecan who closed the distance at tremendous speed. However, it took all his strength to merely hold the shield up, a far cry from the stance he took during the start of the duel.
”<Wind>!”
A powerful gust was generated behind the shield Zaifad held.
Loosening his grip, the shield slipped off Zaifad's hand.
As he hurriedly caught the shield and tried to regain his posture, Lecan with his sword raised overhead was already right in front of Zaifad.
Despair was reflected in Zaifad's eyes as he inferred the situation.
Yet the tenacity that prompted him to swing the sword in his right hand at Lecan is worthy of praise.
However, long before that blade could reach Lecan, the great sword Lecan swung down flicked <Shield of Wolkan> away, striking Zaifad's helmet cleanly on the side.
The helmet came off and got flung away. If it didn't, his neck bone would have been broken.
Thud, Zaifad fell behind.
”We have a winner! It's Lecan-dono's victory.”
