Chapter 106 - Best Swordsman (2/2)

”We must stop the match.” One of the elders said. ”We are knights, not barbarians.”

”No, can't you see? The boy's eyes…they're not done yet.”

Gary was determined to win this. What was a little pain to him? The pain that Gary felt was only reminding him that he was alive while his sister was dead. He would have gone through any amount of pain to get his sister back.

Gary suddenly started to feel a strange feeling through his body. His cells were vibrating madly and his mind felt clearer than ever.

This time Gary started to walk slowly over towards Harry. Every other time he had charged right in. Harry couldn't help but feel that something was different about Gary this time.

As Gary got closer and closer to Harry, Harry could feel the pressure emitting from his body.

”This is more like it.” Harry thought.

Harry didn't realise it himself but his body was sweating and his heart was beating. Every cell in his body was currently telling him to get away from this person but Harry's mind wouldn't listen.

Harry lifted up his two swords ready to deflect whatever attack Gary was ready to give him.

When Gary was only a few short steps away from Harry he mumbled something to himself.

”Finally, I can see them.”

Gary then dashed in and struck with his sword. Harry was ready to deflect it as usual but this time something different happened. As his sword was ready to collide with Gary's, it looked like at the last second it moved like a snake and went around his sword.

Harry managed to block the strike with his other sword just in time but as he looked up another strike was coming right at his head and he no longer had any hands free to block it.

*Clang

Just before the sword reached Harry's head, a black obsidian blade stopped the strike.

”You have won, that's enough now.” Sir K said.

As soon as Gary had heard those words his body collapsed to the ground.

”Ladies and gentlemen your winner Gary!”

Applause didn't start straight away as the audience was confused by what had just happened. From just looking at the two opponents it was strange to say that the winner was on the floor while the loser didn't have a mark on him.

But in the end, if a master knight intervened in the fight, then it was up to them to declare a winner and Sir K did just that declaring Gary the winner.

Everyone watching from the side was proud of Gary. Gary had his ups and downs, but everyone understood why. But one thing never changed…Gary was the strongest swordsman they all knew.

The announcer went off ready for the next match.

”Now let's get ready for the next round, who is it going to be?”
