*TANGGG!*
*TANGGG!*
*TANGGG!*
...
The clank created when Arondite's blade struck Laston's black daggers echoed through the sky.
The sound was much louder than the usual sound made when metal collided with each other.
Both weapons were weapons made with strong Magic.
Laston's black dagger is a Magic weapon that Aerchon never knew about.
So far, Laston has only ever used Magic to fight. He had never even been seen wielding a sword before.
But it all turned out to be just part of Laston's scheme. He didn't want to wield a weapon to hide his true fighting ability.
Now that Laston had finally unleashed his powers, Aerchon was overwhelmed.
Saeldir turned to Aurdis. The look in his eyes said everything. Aerchon wouldn't be able to defend himself against Laston.
Aurdis nodded curtly because she could see what Saeldir was trying to convey before he even said it.
So they both shot toward Laston from two different sides.
Laston's eyes, which previously only focused on Aerchon, glanced left and right.
In a split second, Laston had noticed the arrival of the two of his enemies.
Laston lifted his leg and kicked Aerchon. Of course, Aerchon didn't think that Laston would give that attack because he had only been fighting with his hands.
The kick sent Aerchon flying backward. He managed to block the kick by placing one hand in front of his chest.
However, the force behind those powerful kicks still sent him flying.
Laston used his black Magic to form a thread.
The thread is connected at the base of the handle of his daggers.
After that, Laston threw his two daggers toward Saeldir and Aurdis who were approaching from the side.
Saeldir swerved to the side to dodge. But Aurdis only created Magic Shield because she wasn't fast enough to dodge.
*TANGG!*
Laston's black dagger stabbed into Aurdis' Magic shield.
Cracks are starting to appear in her Magic shield. At that moment Aurdis realized that the situation was bad.
She immediately let go of the Magic Shield and dodged to the side.
It turned out that the Magic Shield broke just moments after Aurdis dodged and penetrated it.
'If I don't dodge in time, I'll get to taste that black sinister blade!'
Aurdis felt a chill down her spine. Any seconds delay and she would have died.
The daggers are Magic weapons so the effect will be huge when it hits her body.
The effect was definitely not just pain.
Laston immediately pulled the black thread that connected his dagger and the dagger returned to his hand.
After that, Laston swung the dagger like a whip toward Saeldir who was getting closer to him.
Saeldir raised his sword. However, instead of deflecting the dagger, Saeldir's sword was immediately wrapped around the black thread.
Saeldir was not ready for what Laston did next. He tugged on the black Magic thread making Saeldir slide towards him.
Laston pointed his other dagger toward Saeldir's chest which he managed to pull closer.
Saeldir's eyes widened as he saw the black tip of the dagger glistening in the sunlight.
He immediately let go of his Magic sword. But Laston's pull was so strong that Saeldir was now already too close to the dagger to dodge it.
Suddenly Laston moved the dagger he was about to use to stab Saeldir.
It turns out, Laston realized that Aerchon was approaching him.
He moved the dagger that was about to stab Saeldir, to block Aerchon's blade that coming at him.
*DANGGG!*
Aerchon gritted his teeth. As if to show that he used the great power behind Arondite's swing.
"(It's too weak, Son! Do you think you can beat me with just that strength?!)" Laston shouted.
Laston kicked Aerchon again. But Aerchon was able to dodge sideways having seen the attack beforehand.
"(Let's attack together!)"
From behind, Saeldir and Aurdis who had escaped death simultaneously attacked Laston.
Supposedly, with the two of them, Laston could be defeated.
Previously, Saeldir had not used all his strength. He also believed that Saeldir was still not fighting at his full power.
Maybe there is still something inside Laston that keeps him from using all his strength.
He must have known, if they fought at their full power, then this palace would probably be destroyed.
However, if Saeldir doesn't fight using his strength now, they won't be able to beat Laston. This is also an opportunity for them.
Before Laston can unleash all his power, Saeldir must do it first. That way, their chances of winning will be higher.
The Magic aura around Saeldir's body became even brighter.
The sword in his hand also felt an increasing Magic power so the runes engraved on the blade became clear.
The runes were greenish in color and formed a script that only Saeldir would know.
Even the blacksmith who forged it didn't know what rune Saeldir had put on his sword.
When the rune is active, the power of the sword will increase many times.
On the other hand, Laston was still busy fighting Aerchon with all his might.
He slammed his daggers from both sides with incredible speed and power.
Aerchon tried to endure it all. But still, he had to accept some scratches and kicks from Laston.
"(This is the real you, Aerchon. You're just a prince who thinks he has great powers!)"
In the midst of all that, Laston still manages to give a speech that attacks Aerchon's mentality.
"(You do have the blood of a King. But, have you ever been directly involved in a war?!)" Laston said.
"(NEVER!)"
*TANGGG!*
One powerful impact on Arondite sent a shockwave through Aerchon. Pushed her back pretty far.
Aerchon's hands shook violently from the attack.
"(Do you know what happen to those Elves you sent by your stupid decision?)"
Laston smirked hatefully at Aerchon.
Aerchon could only stare at him with eyes shaking like the tremors in his hands. Je couldn't say anything.
"(You sent thousands of our warriors into battle with little chance of victory. You never listen to me, or anyone smart enough to see your idiocy!)"
Laston continued.
"(Who do you think is worse among you and me?)"
